There is an awful adventure trailer for Wardens of the Wildwood on Reddit. At first I thought it was a (bad) joke. But it appears to be legitimate.

For any interested parties, go HERE.

This is great, thank you! I thought I missed something, but I just need to be patient and they'll show up as part of my subscription. Can't wait.

Thanks again,

I remember the Roberts! Those were some really fun times with the old LG crew. I'll take you up on the DM offer, Stephanie. Thanks!

... just wondering if I missed an explanation.

No, I don't think you're missing anything. There are no published, official reasons why surviving Roseguard members left the keep's dungeons alone. It does seem counter-intuitive to our own adventuring

The Adventure Toolbox says that, "Grieving their lost friend, the Roseguard left, sealed up the keep, founded what would become the town of Otari, and retired there. They never knew of the keep’s lower levels or the many creatures still remaining within them" (Abomination Vaults, page 75).

I imagine they saw the keep as a tomb, the grave of their friend, Otari. There may have been a conversation about respecting his grave site: they never did recover his body. And as it notes above, they "sealed up the keep." We don't know what that means, but it sounds like they made an effort to keep what was below ground trapped in the depths - which they accomplished. Never knowing something was below the swamp isn't the same as not suspecting. And, they stayed in town, perhaps keeping a silent and life-long vigil on the keep. Nothing ever bubbled up from the depths and the Roseguard survivors died in peace, always maintaining respect for Otari's final resting place.

I am rambling, but there ya go - another take on it.

Hi, all.

I understand that Mister Beak underwent some adjustment from the original Ruins of Gauntlight to the Abomination Vaults hardcover. Do these battle cards reflect that change?

EDIT: Mister Beak appears 'adjusted' on Archives of Nexus, with phantom pain as an alignment spell. Still wonder what its battle card says, though.

This AP must have sold REALLY well.

I know this is hardly official, but this product's page at Amazon says, "Pathfinder Second Edition's most popular campaign yet ..."

As a returning Paizo/Pathfinder customer, having left at the conclusion of Second Darkness to commit to another system, it is the Abomination Vaults campaign that first caught my interest and brought me 'back into the fold.' I saw Ruins of Gauntlight on Amazon while browsing for other RPG fare, and it got me curious about the system. However, I initially tinkered with starting Age of Ashes, but it was a bit much for me as a newcomer to PF2. I switched gears and got the Beginner Box's, ran Menace Under Otari and then Troubles In Otari. It was a better entry path for new/returning gamers like my group and me. Abomination Vaults is the perfect next step for our circumstances and level of familiarity and experience with PF2.

It is anecdotal, but to say, the Abomination Vaults AP is PF2's "... most popular campaign yet ..." rings true with me. There is something about its title, tone, and measure of content that captured my attention.

There's the Character Sheet Pack but that's a purchase. Ah, here you go!

Woohoo! Thank you very much. Looks like the black and white sheets are gonna do the trick just fine. I have not played PF2, yet. So these are great for a beginner. If we play more I might look into other character sheet options. For now, this is great.

Thanks again.
