Has anyone noted how much people are asking for these elsewhere? It is ridiculous! I'd be glad to see Paizo putting this back in stock and blowing all those people out of the water.

*humbly awaiting such a time*

What are good sources for lore concerning the dwarves of Golarion other than the book by the same name, race guides, or Inner Sea World Guide?
At this point, that's pretty much it. We haven't done an awful lot about dwarves. There's bits here and there; one of the dungeons in "Dungeons of Golarion" is a lost dwarven mine, for example.
Hrm..that is disappointing. Are there any future plans to expand upon this in the future?
Nothing that we've publicly announced, and if there's something we haven't announced, I'm not gonna do so here! :-)

Completely understood! I shall practice my dwarven patience for said lore in the future, then. Thank you again for your time and knowledge!

A few questions about those there River Kingdoms!

Basically... there's always a conflict or war ABOUT to break out as these folks push rules and the like.
I see. So, I gather that enforcement of the Freedoms is up to whoever has interest in upholding them, be they ruler or commoner. Would I be correct in that?
Pretty much. Of course... the commoner won't be able to enforce much, due to all-around weakness.

Of course, save if there were enough in number. Although, I wouldn't be surprised at a massacre in response or even subtle propaganda to sway the populace. Ah, politics!

This helps me get a bit more perspective on this wacky, wonderful world called Golarion. Thanks a lot, James!

The degree to which the laws of the River Kingdoms are followed varies widely from kingdom to kingdom. Rememer, a lot of these lands are founded by chaotic folks, and they often will push the boundaries of the law until they break. The flexibility of the laws also varies from kingdom to kingdom.

As for Touvette... those waystations certainly push the line of the 3rd River Freedom, but Touvette's pretty good at walking up to the line and not stepping over. Because they DO frustrate other kingdoms.

A few questions about those there River Kingdoms!

To begin, in the Pathfinder Journal Prodigal Sons I had the impression that the River Freedoms were ideals that were held as paramount law throughout the land, perhaps even by the rulers, is this true?

And, if not, to what degree would they be followed?

Along those lines, I noted that in the Guide to the River Kingdoms, it says that the kingdom of Touvette has way stations along the major roads into and out of the kingdom. It seems to me that this infringes upon the 3rd River Freedom; Walk Any Road, Float Any River.

Do they have these way stations along the river too?

How does that hold with those that advocate the freedoms so strongly?

Also, would the 5th River Freedom; Courts Are for Kings, be able to absolve the 4th or any other?

I understand that law is probably the least of matters in the anarchic region but I felt that the Freedoms seemed to be the wholly accepted throughout. I'd also like to know what they might mean for an up and coming kingdom to the north?


Man, I've been itching to play this AP forever! I'd be interested too, if there's a vacancy. I originally had a ranger in mind, as well, but I was thinking a barbarian (sea reaver) would be great and fit the bill.


I'm genuinely interested, good sir! I'm thinking about a gnome summoner who is both fascinated with the Thassilonian culture and how it might tie into Golarion's future!

I'll work on that right now!


OH, yes! I'm thinking a goblin who makes his life easier around the master by sort of playing jester....while adding a few cruel acts to his routine.


Dot this because I deem it very dotable.


Interesting interest of an interested terrestrial.
