Will you be doing a set for Carrion Crown?

As with the prepainted minis coming out soon, will you be discontinuing paper minis?

Hi I was wondering if some out there had a list of which minis would be needed per Module.

example
Haunting of Harrowstone
3 Flaming skulls, 4 zombies etc etc

Trial of the Beast
1 flesh golem, 4 wraiths etc

also does any know if paper minis are going to be done for this AP?

The group I am running is about half way thru Harrowstone and dislike my tokens that I have been using.

Hello Again

After months of delays, planning, cons and other interruptions my Carrion Crown adventure path has begun!
Now we only play twice a month so updates will not be horribly often...
To Begin lets Introduce My Players...

Olin - A mysteriously cloaked Magus/Cleric of Serenrae

Huntress - A mysterious young lass, who can employ ranger skills

Ananti - A summoner with mysterious Polychromatic eyes

Seskta - Fighter/Cleric of Serenrae

Pathian - Half Elven Magus of some renown

Fast Like Tree - Monk of the Living God

WARNING SPOILERS

The game started out well enough everyone was there expect Fast Like Tree whom from now on I will refer to as Tree arrived in Ravengro for the funeral and served as pall bearers for Professor Lorrimor's funeral, with Seskta reciting some welcome praising words for the fallen professor. The funeral procession was halted by a group farmers lead by Gibs Hespestus who accused the Professor of having been a necromancer. Quick of tongue and spite Huntress verbally backed down the angry crowd and dispersed them into the day.

After the funeral the Will was read to the party asking them a favor of taking care of Kendra the Professor's daughter for 30 days and then deliver several Tomes to Lepistadt, 100 miles north of Ravengro. After discovering the Professor's note and journal, the party believed that the professor had been murdered most foul and that there was a faction called the Whispering Way involved. Also included was the description of a cache of items that they might find useful in a false crypt located near where the professor was interred. The party decided to rest for the evening and head back out to the Restlands, to pay their respects to professor and search for the false crypt.

The next morning they awoke to a large disturbance coming from outside, upon quick investigation they discovered that the Memorial to the Guardsmen when Harrowstone Prison was defaced with a bloody "V" smeared on its base. Quickly Ananti ran and grabbed a bucket, soapy water and a brush, while Huntress determined that it was rat's blood. When finished the group departed for the Restlands.

While search the crypts, Huntress stumbled upon a tombstone freshly engraved with the Lilandra Mordan, with the epitaph "Died In Vain" right next to the false crypt. Inside the crypt the group took care of some giant centipedes that had decided to make the crypt their home and claimed the cache of items for themselves. The group then began researching based on the Professor's notes, trying to glean information of a list of everyone who had died in harrowstone, whispering way and more while more strange occurrences happen to them,,,

To BE Continued

Now I know that more had happened to the but I really did not want to spoil it for those who read this and still wanted to play. Some side notes to above, Tree arrived shortly after the funeral. During a random zombie attack (Professor came home ;) ) Huntress showed some fangs and claws, Tree panicked yelled werewolf and grappled the ranger and attempted to force feed Wolfsbane. Tree then suffered two crits, one from Huntress that came close to killing him and was almost killed via nonlethal crit by Olin.

After the group decided that they should stop being so mysterious to each other, for situations like this. Ananti turned out to be a changeling summoner of Annis Hag descent, Huntress's real name is Lilandra Mordan and a descendant of werewolf (ranger shapeshifter archetype) and Olin was a dhampir.

The session had some of the best Role Playing I've seen in probably 6 years.

Title says it all

I have some odd characters sit at my table of the years and some are just so memorable.

Howls-in-High-Pitch - Werewolf the Apocolypse - due to several bad rolls ended up a gelding and just sort of went with it and played it up.

Nude Fighter - Human Monk style after a luchre libre wrestler - The player would actually wear a mask and was very good at getting into character. Played with him at Neoncon 2010 at a couple tables I was GM.

Hidesous Mody the Abortive Midwife - Dwarven Staff Magus - enough said...

Hello Everyone,

Just wondering if something might break the game to badly, I mean I can run around it but figured I might check here for some suggestions.

One of my players is wanting to Play a Magus/Cleric Dhampir, Noble Scion trait selecting Conte Tiriac who is mentioned in Ashes module. Also he is wanting to be from Varno as well.

Do you think that a background like this would potentially provide too much base information going into the game?

In the Player's Guide it gives only a basic idea of how to use the cards and refers to the AP itself. I search the first module and didn't find anything on uses, is it in another module? I am currently prepping to run this AP and I like what I have read so far with the 6 suits and 9 alignments, but how do players gain them etc.

If a character is staggered and has a potion belt (not sure of the name since it wasn't my character but it was an item to allow pulling out a potion as a swift action). Can he legally 5 ft step (out of AoO range) swift move pull out a potion and then as his standard action drink said potion?

The 5 ft step in the core book is list as 2 things No Action and Misc. Action, and was not clear if it would be considered a Movement therefore causing the character to be unable to drink the potion.

To keep the game moving since at that point 4 out of 5 players pulled out rule books to examine the rule, the GM ruled that it didn't make sense and that the potion was not drank since the character moved.

I agree with the ruling on this since it made sense logically because if drinking would be an entire standard action surely moving (dare I say shifting) five feet in a particular direction would be similar.

I have heard this complaint from other GMs and have not ran into it myself.

Situation:
range-trip specialist fighter is optimized for tripping (obviously) and concentrating on dealing damage via Attacks of Opportunity. With how the character is setup is trivializes a lot of encounters. Now I do know that this type of character would struggle in encounters where tripping is impossible (swarms) or difficult (multi-legged monsters) but if the Acts are centered around bipeds the can be frustrating for the GM and boring for the other players. The character is Society legal just optimized and the player does really enjoy said character.

I could not answer my friend when he told me about this situation, so I am asking a wider audience.

I have always followed the RULE of COOL:Awesome before Optimized

Another situation/example would be

Multiple Cleric in Undead heavy scenarios (I've run into this before)

Both Ninja and Rogue gets sneak attack at first level.

If one was to multiclass say level 1 ninja and 1 rogue would the sneak attack be 2d6?

Hi Everyone,

I have been playing for while now and I've also run games at my local game day as well as at Neoncon.

I am going to visit family and friends and there is no PFS in the area, so I was thinking of introducing it there. Now I know there is interest and I am in good graces with the local shop so a venue and players will not be the problem.

The decision I am facing is which scenarios to play there, I would need two at the least. I am running Godsmouth Heresy for my old group as a home game and to introduce them and some one them would probably play in the PFS sessions I would be coordinating.

Which two should I use to introduce the Society? Any recommendations any of you would have?

Master of the Fallen Fortress was one I was considering. (I am lucky enough to have gotten one on free RPG day)

Hi All,

I am looking to run this for Society play in a few weeks and I was curious to know if anyone had a blown map where the squares are 1 inch?

My original idea (one I usually do) is do each room on 8.5 x 11 paper to keep a "fog of war" going for my players, however I was thinking of being a little lazy for this one.

Any help?

I was having a discussion at Neoncon with a few others about Move action. My understanding is that taking an action defined as a move action such as stand up takes the place of that turns movement, except of course if the character does a double movement.

Sorry about the newb question. In 3.5 starting skills was X int modifier. Is it correct in Pathfinder that its + int modifier?

Just a newb question, but I am having trouble finding the character creation guide for building my monk to play at local society events. Is there a link for traits and other information I will need or is it all just in main guide?
