Hi Legendary Folks, I just started to code this for Hero Lab Classic and noticed that there are a few domains conspicuously missing: All four alignment-axis domains, plus the Liberation, Madness and Weather domains. Two new domains seem to have been added: Freedom (which used to be a sub-domain of Liberation) and Life (which seems to be an ad-hoc addition.

Designer questions:
1. Were the changes purposeful? If so, what was the thinking behind the additions and deletions?
2. For clerics of PF Core deities, if your god's domain was deleted, are there suggested substitutions for the deleted domains? Which deities should get the Freedom and Life domains?

Thanks for the input Matt, and for going above and beyond with the updated description.

I'm almost finished with the Hero Lab file for the Legendary Rogue and will happily share it with you, Endy, or anyone that would like to give it a try.

Thanks for the feedback Endy! Always appreciated.

Already using:
New Paths Compendium by Kobold Press: In addition to the Spell-less Ranger, this compilation includes several other New Paths classes like the Battle Scion, the Shaman, the Elven Archer and the Savant into the PFRPG, offering several new 20-level base classes to the game. The classes are well designed, flavorful, and fill empty niches in the game that don't typically overlap with existing Paizo base classes.

Laying Waste by TPK Games: Replaces the CRB critical rules with a flavorful set of additional conditions, but is different from the Pathfinder RPG Critical deck in that it scales using a severity system. Each critical hit is guaranteed to deal at least maximum damage, with the possibility of adding ever-more-powerful effects as the severity of the crit increases. There is also a system for critical fumbles, along with a large number of feats that work with the new crit system.

I want to begin using:
Spheres of Power by Drop Dead Studios:
Strange Magic by Interjection Games
Ultimate Charisma by Everyman Gaming
Legendary Rogues by Legendary Games.

Thanks sir! I've been looking for another Pathfinder podcast to add to my playlist. Best wishes for a long podrun.

Changes I made to Haunting of Harrowstone:
1. I had Adivion attend the Professor's funeral. Players learn that he and the Prof were colleagues at the University of Lepidstadt in the past, and that Adivion is sweet on Kendra. This introduces Adivion right at the beginning of the AP.
2. I had the Professor's body located away from Harrowstone. This way, the PC's don't charge in there immediately, and have to spend some time in Ravengro figuring out what is going on.
3. I tossed out the Trust mechanic entirely, and had the player's relationship with the various townfolk grow out of RP.
4. I added an encounter in Ravengro where the Professor arises from the dead as a ghoul and returns to his home to find Kendra. This was a really good OMG moment from the players.

That's all I can think of right now.

If Paizo AP's were available for Realm Works, it would finally push me into the "I'm gonna buy Realm Works" category.

So random question. I've been getting out of this that Adrissant is connected to Lorrimmar somehow. Is that in the later books (I haven't read them yet), something I missed in these ones, or is it just something that general community discussion has created?

The connection between the two is never established in the AP as written, but it was strongly suggested by the community that AA be spotlighted much earlier in the campaign. One such way is to have the Professor and AA have a past relationship.

Leave gnome man behind!

I would suggest a couple of additional changes to the early part of the adventure. Some of these I was able to incorporate, others I wished I had in hindsight:
1. Have the professor's body found in a different location away from Harrowstone. This might help alleviate the giant glowing neon arrow that points to the prison early in the adventure, and may make the research the players are supposed to do early on more meaningful.
2. Have Adivion Adrissant attend the funeral, and interact with the characters. There is an entire thread about this, and it gives you the opportunity to introduce him very early in the AP.

Once the first letter had been scrawled on the monument, the group heard about the crime, and visited the monument to see what had happened. Once there, they were able to offer their assistance to Benjan the Sherrif. He refused at first, but after the second desecration had occurred, he reluctantly accepted the party's offer of aid. The group's rogue spent several nights hiding in the tree branches near the monument until the next time it was desecrated, stealthed sucessfully, followed the perp back to his home, and then notified the authorities of his discovery. Worked great.
