Okay here are the rules,

Arcana Evolved Conversions. These blog posts are collected in a handy pdf available here.

I am happy to see people are enjoying the AE-to-PF1E conversions I did. =D

I like pretty much everything except for the focus on LG ONLY for the playtest. I would rather see paladins degeneralized into good, neutral, or evil (completely ignoring the law [order]/chaos axis) champions of their deity.

Any chance this and other Pathfinder Tales novels published by Tor will eventually receive Trade Paperback Editions? I would really rather have these in the same size as my other books in the series.

We have a total of three initial book projects planned for release as third party OGL-compatible supplementals for The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game System by Paizo Publishing and WoTC 5th Edition D&D OGL-compatible with stretch goals. These three books will be part of our ongoing product lines: Rogue’s Field Guide and Rogue’s Playbook and Rogue's Field Guide: Flora and Fauna

Rogue’s Field Guides are a product line that puts the focus on world related, GM centric content such as world building guides, monsters, adventure paths and playable races for both GMs and players. The Rogue’s Playbook is aimed at maximizing the effectiveness of the player with all of our tips, tricks and player options, such as classes, feats and items, from the Rogue Robot itself!

Here is a free web enhancement I posted today of a prestige class I created for the book but we didn't have enough room to fit in.

Examples of the slayer problem: base class vs archetypes.

Compare to the swashbuckler: base class vs archeypes.

The Evolved Path is one of 10 awesome books available as part of The Open Gaming Store's 10 books for 10 bucks Black Friday sale.

If you are missing any of the Compendium Arcanum books or the Evolved Path they are on sale for %50 off until 12:01 AM on Tuesday, September 8th.

Good to know, thanks!

One of my PACG OP players was wondering when the character sheets and deck list would be added to the Community Use Package.

The oathsworn.

Really nice.

BTW: The link is somewhat "garbled up"

Thanks for the heads up. New link to greenbond.

I hope this thing makes its way to Hero Lab. The software already has the original Arcana Evolved stuff, and it also allows you to use the Modern Path user content.

It is my hope to learn how to add these to Herolab. It is just matter of finding the time to do so.

Also, here is the conversion of the greenbond I posted today.

dogfolk so the other players I game with can stop griping that there isn't one.

Dragonkin race that's not just a human with a draconic head and scales. I want teeth, claws, wings (even if they don't allow full flight for a while), tail, breath weapon (preferably usable more than 1/day).

Half-dwarves. Because they really should be a thing.

Not official Paizo, but...

For dogfolk, Monte Cook's Arcana Evolved had the sibeccai, which someone did a Pathfinder conversion of.

Similarly, AE had the dracha for a kind of dragonfolk, also converted here.

For half-dwarves, Dark Sun had that, called them mul. The Dark Sun people made a 3.5 conversion for the setting that includes them.

I did the AE race conversions you posted. I also did a series of blog posts on 'Easy Hybrid Races' about 1.5 years ago.

Here are some more causes for the sentinel (champion) class.

Hip hip huzzah!

This is my first attempt at converting the champion class. I wanted something a bit more mystical than the cavalier and samurai, but less strict than the paladin. I am looking forward to hearing what you guys think about it.

Also, Compendium Arcanum: 7th-Level Spells is now available on d20PFSRD Shop, DriveThruRPG, and RPGNow.

Hi Everyone,

Here is a link to a playtest document my brother, Peter, has been developing over the past few months. It is an adaptation/conversion of Green Ronin's The Black Company Campaign Setting's masterpiece crafting system. Please send any feedback to hawkins [at] errantdice [dot] com.

The PDFs for Compendium Arcanum 5th-and 6th-level spells are now available on the d20PFSRD Shop, DriveThruRPG, and RPGNow.

Come be a goblin for a day on Free RPG Day (06/20/2015) at Haven Gaming in Salem, Oregon!
We will be running all three We Be Goblins! modules.

So, for the AE classes I don't intend to convert in full (champion, greenbond, magister, oathsworn, ritual warrior, unfettered, and warmain), what aspects are important to you, and which existing Pathfinder class would you like to see that aspect incorporated into as an archetype? A couple of examples of this would be the themed witch (witch) and totemic fury (barbarian or bloodrager) archetypes. Also, are there any AE prestige classes you think would make good archetypes?

Alternatively, are there any AE classes or prestige classes that you think would meld easily into a new class, like the mage blade and the runethane being merged into the runeblade?

Will the pregens be available in advance, as they were two years ago for We Be Goblins Too!?

Will there be a PFS Chronicle sheet and pregens available to print out prior to Free RPG Day again? I am running three tables of this that day, and it would be nice to have the pregens all ready to go instead of having to find a copy machine.

Question for Everyone: How important is it to have a full Pathfinder-ified write up for each of the AE races (see Unearthed Errata: Faen Race for example)? Or would you rather a quick conversion of the base racial traits (something I can easily bust out for next week's blog post) and following posts that flesh out each race with alternate traits, feats, et cetera?

I'm a strong believer in delayed fulfillment.

All seven races are available with full writeups on the blog now: dracha, faen, giants, litorians, mojh, sibeccai, & verrik. In addition, they are also available as a PDF in The Evolved Path.

And for my first post in several weeks, I have revisited the totem warrior with the totemic fury archetype.

The Arcana Evolved Witch was interesting - pathfinderizing it best would probably mean making it follow something like a Sorcerer Bloodline or Oracle Mystery (that latter one being best of all, I think), rather than Patrons and Hexes.

That is pretty much what I decided to go with for the Augurer witch archetype, for better or for worse.

Just thought I would let you know that d20PFSRD Publishing released the Evolved Path last week will I was at PaizoCon. It contains the Akashic and Runeblade classes, as well as the seven AE races: dracha, faen, giant, litorian, mojh, sibeccai, and verrik. You can find it on RPG Now, Drive Thru RPG, and d20PFSRD. I hope to be back with new content next Tuesday, but it may be delayed by another week.

A PSA about what is going on with me.

Unearthed Errata: Mojh Race.

Whenever you get around to the ACG will you do the Occult Adventure's spells too?

I am really no sure. In part, it depends on if I get the ACG spells before or after OA comes out (no promises either way there). Sorry for the delayed response.

I haven't been able to get the PRD search function to return anything since the server update yesterday.

Unearthed Errata: Dracha Race.

Unearthed Errata: Sibeccai Race.

Awhile back I converted it as a (more faithful IMHO) rogue archetype of the same name.

Unearthed Errata: Litorian Race (Part 1|Part 2)

Greetings and well met!

Unearthed Errata: Verrik Race.

Some notes from Dave Gross on the subject. My two coppers: I am mainly sad that my new books will be a different shape than my old ones.

I don't have a short list, I was just thinking of spells from beyond the core book. I haven't gone through them all yet, have you done the ones in the APG and ARG? What about Ultimate Magic and Ultimate Combat?

If I were to request a small set, it would probably be these ones in the Psionics Transcended book. Which I just love.

I included all of the ones from the CRB, APG, UM, and UC in the initial conversion (part of why it took so long). I purposely left out the ones from the ARG because I am still a bit hazy as to whether they are supposed to race-specific or not. I will take a look at Psionics Transcended and see how doable it is and in what timeframe.

Greetings and well met!

Question, will you be creating variable level versions of other spells?

I don't know yet. There is a distinct possibility of doing the ones from the ACG, but I don't have it scheduled at the moment. Right now I want to focus on fleshing out all of the AE races, and maybe revising the Totem Rager (I didn't quite like how it turned out), and doing the Crystal Warrior PrC. I also need to finish formatting the multi-variable spells by spell level for d20PFSRD.com Publishing so they can turn them into PDFs. If you have a small set some specific spells you would like me to create heightened and diminished versions of, I might be able to do that as well. Sorry for the long answer.

Compendium Arcanum Vol. 5: 4th-Level Spells is now available on d20PFSRD.com and DriveThruRPG. Also, the next AE post will be a full racial profile of the verrik on March 10th. If you enjoyed skill tricks from the Complete Scoundrel, be sure to check out this week's post.

This is adorable! What inspired you to make stats for this story?

In as few words as possible? While watching THE GRUFFALO on Netflix I got the idea to give it stats. That lead to someone requesting wild things stats. And here we are. Sorry for the long-delayed response.

Unearthed Errata: Rephaim (Giant) Race.

And here are the final three.

Both indices include all creatures in the PRD from the Bestiaries (1, 2, 3, & 4) and Mythic Adventures.

I wish the Paizo messageboards would allow you to edit a post. =/ I am also considering doing one by terrain, but these are quite time consuming.

Just letting you guys know that after I finish the last Where the Wild Things Are post (next Tuesday), I will be posting a full racial profile for AE giants. =)

And here are the second two.
