Hey everyone, I am currently working on a campaign for my group where the Varisian Pathfinder lodge sponsors the hunt for the remaining runelords. Our group is hunting Xanderghul specifically. Given his area of control, and the fact that XinCyrusian was never found, I have been toying with the idea of the PCS finding the way into where Xin Cyrusian stood. It was going to be modeled after Saventh-Yhi, with the districts displaying Xanderghul's superiority over the other runelords. His palace would be inaccessible until every district was activated. Upon activating all of them, the PCs would enter but complete an ancient ritual Xanderghul had started wherein the city in its entirety, including all of its citizens, would be brought into the current day. Xanderghul would be loose in the world with his entire city at his disposal. Any thoughts? Hoping to get some cool ideas for building it out a bit more and how everyone would handle a runelords with his resources loose in modern Avistan.

Also, sorry for spelling capitalization, I'm on my phone. Looking forward to everyone's thoughts.

I've been stewing on running a campaign that is a blend of several of the Ap's and thought that with all of the recent support for Magnimar, why not run CoCT there with some minor changes?

I was looking at beginning the Campaign with the PCs relatively new in town and witnessing the Festival wherein the the Lord Mayor and Ileosa get married. Shortly thereafter they are contracted to intercept a shipment of an unknown substance from leaving the island of Ordelia, (using the portion of the Skinsaw Murders in Magnimar minus the Clocktower). Upon arrival they interrupt a meeting between Ironbriar and a Red Mantis assassin, who are negotiating the sale of Vorel's Phage. The Mantis makes off, leaving the PCs to deal with Ironbriar.

Leaving there they learn that the Lord Mayor is ill and that the Lady Mayor has been named Queen Regent, until such a time as the Lord Mayor revokes the status. Afterward, they are led to Misgivings where they must investigate the disease.

Upon their return to Magnimar, the lord mayor has passed and the tainted ship and monies have arrived inciting seven days to the grave. Upon the completion of this they find the Chelish Crux among the belongings of the Urgathoans, indicating that something of note was hidden in the closed pathfinder hall of Delvehaven (relocated to Magnimar), leading the PCs to undertake What Lies in Dust, with the hilt of Serithtial replacing the Morrowfall, and inserting a treatise on Kazavon, his downfall and his legacy.

With the hilt in hand the PCs begin to realize what they are facing and race off to Windsong Abbey (where the pommel gem has replaced the Shard of Envy) then to Scarwall (where the full weapon can be reforged following the recovery of the blade). Once the weapon is reforged the PCs return to Magnimar and complete Crown of Fangs to wrap up the campaign.

Any thoughts on how to improve or modify the campaign for a more logical or streamlined approach? I enjoy the parts of the AP's that I picked, and they seemed to work together fairly well, with only minor changes mechanically for them to work.

I have been perusing the style feats, and several of the feats for use of firearms, and, aside from sword and pistol, there are a surprising lack of Style options when it comes to firearms, period, let alone blending them. I play in a small circle of players where most of us trade DM duties, and two of the three of us that do DM are keen on the idea. I personally have a soft spot for the Aldori Dueling style and was curious if anyone could help me out with developing that style into a two weapon one using a pistol(or other appropriate single handed weapon) and Aldori Dueling Sword.

Just finished perusing a new product from the amazing folks over at Paizo and I came acros mention of Lazurite. Does anyone know of any rules regarding this material? Can it be used for anything specific? The flavor of it would definitely make it an interesting component for necromantic spells, but can it be used in the creation of other items, say a weapon or armor? Can it be used as the base substance or added in to change the properties of said items? I'm interested in using it in an upcoming campaign and am looking for some suggestions or any rules that may be out there. Thanks in advance!!!

Having followed the AP line from the beginning, I have to ask, why hasn't Norgorber gotten his own profile article? Following through the APs, each one has certain deities that make sense and get their articles. But the one glaring opportunity for Norgorber was in AP #2, The Skinsaw Murders. But instead of Norgorber getting his, Desna got the article. I understand it was the first deity article and the deity/Ap relationship wasnt developed yet, but still it was a logical fit.

Secondly, I havent seen a terrible lot of extra info thrown out about him in a variety of the other products pushed. It almost seems like he's fading into the background (and yes, that is his thing), but its gettin to the point where it seems that he may disappear altogether. With the red mantis taking on a bigger role, it seems that he is being sidelined by Achaekek. Someone please tell me this isn't so as Norgorber is one of the most interesting of the Ascended and i definitely would love to see some more on him.
