I'm relocating to San Diego for the summer and I'm looking for an open spot in a Pathfinder-Golarion game while I'm out. I'll be living downtown, but traveling in the area isn't an issue for me, depending on the day of the week. I'm coming in July 10 and leaving September 10. I'll also be back every 6-8 weeks for work after that.
Since the gith aren't Open Content, I've been struggling for coming up with a "replacement race" for them. This is a good idea! deinol wrote: But if Lovecraft isn't your thing, just substitute githyanki for any references to the Denizens of Leng in the regular APs and move on. I'm sure after Carrion Crown Paizo will have had there fill for a while.
So, I have to head out of town for two months in the summer. My gaming group still wants me to run the Pathfinder campaign, but over Skype or online. I have limited space/weight in my luggage, so I was wondering if it was possible for me to run my campaign from far away using just my Hero Lab software and the information on the PRD webpage. What do you think?
In my campaign, one of the guys is a Mwangi human rogue that was raised in Korvosa. I was wondering if someone had art (either Paizo, Wizards, NWN/Baldur's Gate portraits, etc.) that would work for this character...basically a bald, black man with a longsword, dagger and cloak: Samuel L. Jackson in rogue attire, if you will. Thanks.
For the most part, you should be able to do that yourself with the free conversion document provided on this website. I have a lot of those books and haven't really needed to worry about it too much since it's about 90% compatible.

A pdf that updated all 3.5 to core pathfinder rules would be greatly appreciated.
I had FASA Trek and the Prime Directive RPG that came out in the 90's, but unfortunately I sold both years ago. I recently bought a brand new, full set of Decipher Trek RPG books based on a post at this site: (which incidentally is a great little blog on Star Trek RPG'ing in general). If you have the Decipher books, chances are you know about this site, which has some support for the system: I've read that Decipher used some of the same developers that worked on the LUG/Icon version. I haven't had a chance to dig into the system too much, but from a quick skimming of the rules, it looks decent. The only think I'll say is that the Player's Guide is not organized very well, as far as character generation is concerned, compared to say, the Star Wars Saga RPG. Other than that, I got 6 hardback books and a GM screen for a good price, so I'm not complaining.
The True20 Adept's Handbook might help you out there. daddystabz wrote: Well, I have most of the stuff for True 20 Revised and I am reading through the Pathfinder beta right now. My players want to start a Pathfinder game soon but honestly I'm finding the system to be very crunchy, bogged down, and kind of tedious from what I'm reading so far. I am considering pitching the idea to them of converting Pathfinder into True 20 since it is more my style but I am not sure even with the conversion documents I have how I would convert certain spells, cleric domains, etc. Any ideas on how to convert/handle these more specific aspects of the Pathfinder rpg?
I've hated energy / level drain since OD&D. This is from the Succubus entry in the True20 Bestiary (I've tweaked it a little for d20, since True20 doesn't use stats just the stat bonuses -5 through +5 and beyond): Kiss of Death: A succubus drains life from a mortal it lures into some act of passion, or by simply planting a kiss on the victim. If the target is not willing to be kissed, the succubus must start a grapple. The succubus’ kiss or embrace drains 2 points of Constitution and 2 points of Wisdom from the victim. The kiss also has the effect of a use of the Suggestion [spell?], asking the victim to accept another kiss from the succubus. The victim must succeed on a DC 21 Will save to negate the effect of the Suggestion. The save DC is Charisma-based. In the same book, energy draining undead have a power called Drain Vitality, which basically is a fatiguing effect. Anyhow, just two ideas.
Based on some earlier conversions of RotRL that were made for True20 and an earlier thread about Freeport in Golarian, I was wondering if there are there currently any plans for Paizo and Green Ronin to team up to produce a series of True20 conversions of the Pathfinder Campaign Setting. I'd love to see an official Pathfinder True20 Companion, for example.
You might want to give True20 a look. I think it would work well for this kind of setting. David Fryer wrote: I considered Alternity but most of my players are only familiar with D20 and don't want to learn a new system. D&D was never intended to be used for modern genre games but D20 Modern doesn't allow you access to psionics and magic at low levels, which is what my players want.
I haven't been contacted about this refund, to my knowledge. Can you just add a credit to my account? That would be the easiest way, I think. Thanks! Vic Wertz wrote: Hmm. Yep—it's been missing since we created that PDF over a year ago, and you're the first one to report it! Unfortunately, we can't add it in anymore. I've added a note to the product listing, and I'll have Cosmo contact you about a refund.
Very nice indeed. :-) David Jarvis 54 wrote:
Sorry, last question: will there be a True20 pdf offered for any of the "Indulgences?" Nicolas Logue wrote: True 20 pdfs will be offered for every Dark Vista and Dark Horizon. The fun thing is that if you buy one version, you'll get the others free anyways. So buy a print book of True 20 and you'll get the OGL 3.5 compatible as well as Runequest and other systems as I acquire the licenses. If you buy Razor Coast and I get new licenses, I'll do updates of it later and send you copies of those pdfs too.
The d20 Call of Cthulhu book that WotC published is the benchmark for me in terms of what a d20/OGL Cthulhu book should be. Will Shadows of Cthulhu be similar in style and quality? David Jarvis 54 wrote:

Will these be PDF or print, or both? Do any of rules, like Sanity, come from the True20 Companion / True20 Revised chapter on Horror campaigns? That is a pretty decent system.
