I know it is not the case here, but i love dying when it is done "right". When my CG, "i want everyone to be happy"-bard died, it really motivated the party.

Before that, the BBEG (who killed my char) was just some evil dude who had some sort of world domination plan, but when he in cold blood killed the most innocent and "good" person (who was begging for mercy), it got personal. Especially our Paladin freaked out, "he might not follow the rules as i do, but his intentions were of unrelenting good" and eventually smote down in the final session, after re-specing to Oath of Vengance.

Sure, i loved the char, but his death created more RP than i ever could have, had he survived. Personal motivations makes for a much better campaign.

On a sidenote... kudos to everyone who can match regions to Ancient Greece, Italy and Babylon.

Isn't Azlant kind of ancient Greece (with a bit of atlantis and biblical babylon thrown in)? - Described by many as the pinacle of human society (in the time golarion represents).

An Asgård inspired pantheon could be cool, but i have no idea how to combine it with the current Deities. For example, Odin doesn't really make sense unless he actually IS the allfather, his character kind of disappear unless he has that heritage and the powers associated.

I do hope that some of the giant lore in the upcomming AP will be inspired by the Jotun (commonly called giants i think?) from nordic mythology. Especially the fire/ice part...

If i'm DM'ing a long campaign i outright tell my players that they can only have one stat below 10, and noone below 8 (post racial modifiers).

Girls of the Outer Sphere

In the city of Axis i saw,
An Axiomite girl without flaw,
No set of equations,
Could describe our relations,
As we passionately laid down the law.

I once knew a psychopomp dame
Tall and slender, thin of frame,
In her house at night,
or in Groetus' light
We made the realm of Pharasma live up to its name.

-To be continued...

At last an Azlanti i found,
Having looked and looked all around,
But when i lifted her veil,
My mind turned so frail,
As an Aboleth spell pinned me down.
