I realize there are two posts here, but you got some pretty good feedback on both! I'll leave these just to support the community helping you out. Sorry the website was being a little weird when you tried to post this!

Indeed. It still makes you wonder whether any of these scenarios were actually playtested or proofread.

Errors that slip through the cracks are not evidence that we don't playtest or proofread, which we do. They show that we're still human, and this is also why we have errata. We're sorry for errors that still get through, and we do our best, but we're not perfect!

Let's keep this discussion on top for OP's sake please! And please also refrain from using insults as those are against our forum guidelines!

Thank Thee, Maya the Glorious.

You're welcome! You know I got your back with the updates ~

one of my newest pfs characters is an awakened housecat named "Scamp" the is of the auegueoe... uh... dumb kitty! An ancestry with a lot of vowels. Humaniod forn has cat ears.

Perfection in the form of a player character.

Conrasu are by the most WEIRDEST playable race.

In Pathfinder, absolutely, but I dare say Starfinder has set the goal to one up them, what with the tiny vainglorious suns-with-a-face and fire-breathing crabfolk and four-eyed stony land-squid.

Pathfinder: We love weird.

Conrasu are by the most WEIRDEST playable race.

And you're so welcome.

Can confirm we are in fact nerds who enjoy making weird stuff because we like playing them too.

There's an island! In that case, I need to GM more...

This was the case anyway, of course!

I incorrectly predicted that, Meet the Iconic Runesmith would post today.

Ahhh welcome to the age of Lost Omens where Prophecy fails but Necromancy is eternal.

It comes out next week, Prince Maleus! You weren't too far off! For the record, you'll have these blogs every other week!

Huh. The idea that iruxi are from the endothermic branch of reptiles, much like Dinosaurs, is... interesting.

We have many dino fans here!

Special congratulations to Gary Bush as our Nebraska honoree and to Marshal and Mike.

Looking forward to playing the final event in the Invasion's Edge as well.

We hope you have a blast!

Finally I get to join the island! Been playing Pathfinder and Starfinder since season 5 of 1e.

Thank you to all the players who sat at my tables. I hope I left you with a fun experience.

And thank you to all the excellent GMs that I learned from.

I will be at Gencon. Stop by and say hi!

And remember, All Hail the Chime!

This is so sweet, Gary! Thank you for being a part of our community for so long!

We updated this to the correct date! Thank you for calling this out, Grumpus!

How can the playtest be only halfway through, when the blog says 6/10 (today) is when it ends?

OH yeah that's a typo! It ends on 7/10! I'll pass this onto the team for an edit!

Celebrate Free RPG Day at your FLGS with sanctioned Pathfinder and Starfinder Adventures! Get more updates on sanctioning, GM recognition, sneak peaks on upcoming Scenario releases in today's Monthly Update blog!

No spoilers but omg I cannot wait until you all get the Iconic Encounter. It's coming at the end of the month!

July 10th will be the next Paizo Live which will cover Impossible Magic. That is also the Friday before the Subscription PDF Release.

Tis almost time, Dearies.

Just wanted to come in to confirm this! Yes, the July 10th Paizo Live will be about Impossible Magic, Starfinder Absalom Station: Center of the Galaxy, and Bastion of Blasphemies since they're all coming out at Gen Con/August Releases!

I hope everyone in the thread tunes into Paizo Live! If you miss it, it'll be on Twitch for a week, and we'll put it up on Youtube after!

Hooraaaay it's working! Thank you Ravingdork and Finoan for jumping in here to help Unklbuck!

Thank you for expressing a good option for you all here! Right now, our current website doesn't have a way to facilitate this, but options are being researched! If there is enough demand, that would help us as well, so I'll pass this onto the team!

Missed opportunity for a "Halftime Show" reference for this article ;P

Really interested in how the mechanics get fine-tuned and shape up, but the flavor and class fantasy are absolutely on point! I like the idea of a "magic-light Bard" that leans more heavily into the Razzle Dazzle than the tactical aspects like the Envoy or Commander.

HA! DANGIT!!! GOOD CALL, LoreMonger13! If I use this reference in a future social post once the class it out, I will credit you as such.

The Luminary Playtest is about half-way through! Have you tried out the new class coming to shake up every stage in the Pact Worlds? Give the luminary a spin NOW and don't forget to leave your feedback for the devs to review in the playtest survey!

Maya, can you please sticky this thread too? It’s super important to all of us.

Thank you!

Hmm

Rue sticked it for us! Thanks for the ask, HMM!

What a tragic story!

And a very well written one in my opinion!

Hey Unklbuck! I've moved your question to our Second Edition Rules Discussion section as you may get better help here. The reason for that is that although you may have come across this rule in Organized Play, it pertains to the game as a whole, and other Pathfinder Second Edition players who do not engage in Organized Play may still be able to help you! Best of luck!

Thank you all for your kind words and consideration here! I have edited one post to remove a section that contained an unproven rumor as spreading rumors is against our forum guidelines. No other text was edited.

Paizo has announced layoffs and adjustments to the product schedule due to financial hardship. Please read today's blog for more information and use this forum thread for discussion.

As always, please keep our forums cordial and please give Paizo employees space to process this difficult transition.

That sounds just like Vincent Price at the end of Thriller.

This was intentional!

So I wonder if the glass and bones are related? Bone ash was a common ingredient as a flux in glass making before soda ash became widely available. Although that kind of glass is usually milky and white. Maybe there is some copper in the swamp sand they use.

We shall see!

I love him :)

Me too!

I have an AWESOME idea. Get Paizo to make the Dad Joke feat from the Fool's Aplenty blog post (https://paizo.com/blog/fools-aplenty) PFS legal.

Genius idea!!

As a neurodivergent person myself who so often is confused by what people are talking about and has been told creates confusion myself, I sympathize with OP here! I'm still not entirely sure what you mean, OP, but if you have any questions, please direct them here!

In the meantime, I worry that your many messages more or less to yourself does cross over into the spam category when considering our guidelines against spam include posts that don't nurture conversation in the community. If the community is unable to engage with you in a constructive way with so many messages, I'd say that's in that territory. In the future, try to keep your messages as concise as you are able! Still, we appreciate you here! Thank you for reading our necromancer blog!

I need more!

There will be!

Oh all that green material is glass! From the bookcover I assumed it was jade.

Love the backstory, and love the design! He's so wiry and lean, I feel like lizardfolk designs tend to lean more stocky and muscular, Usharak feels so gaunt in a way that's both very "dark spellcaster" and totally reptillian.

Thank YOOOUUUU!

*grabs popcorn 'cuz the iconic encounter gonna be good*

JUST YOU WAIT!

I love my sad lizard necromancer and his collection of family bones. <3

Me too... So much.

I have no idea if this is the backstory to the hero or the BBEG.

This is not a flaw.

*Evil Laughter*

The updated files are here! You can find them on the PDF page! Thank you everyone for waiting!

The weight of the dead can leave a mark on your soul. Meet the iconic necromancer, Usharak, and get ready for Impossible Magic this summer!

Got the demarcation fixed! Thank you all for your patience!

Is there a reason pdfs don't release at Midnight anymore??

Yes, and we've addressed this multiple times! The PDFs have to be launched manually, so we release them during business hours now. Let us know if you have any other questions though!

Hey everyone here! It's totally up on the site! As old Gil has stated, yes we have to release these manually now, so please allow us some grace as we're only humans doing this.

That being said, it seems the PDF wasn't given the digital tag systematically, and I've flagged this for the team! Thanks for keeping an eye out!

Also a reminder that this is not to be treated as a wishlist. The purpose of this thread is to point out errors that players find in the books that our dev team may have missed and thus add to a future errata. Please keep in mind the following things:

- Sometimes something isn't actually an error and was done intentionally. Even if it seems far fetched.
- Not liking something, while ENTIRELY valid and completely your prerogative, does not make the thing an error.
- Our devs and designers are only human. Errors do happen! We wholly appreciate you helping us catch the ones we miss. Genuinely.

Thank you, everyone!

Another update! It is on the list of things to do, and it's high! The team had a few surprise extra things to do yesterday, but they'll be getting to this soon!

This month is all about fearsome battles, exploring new worlds, and sharing the love of TTRPGs with your community! Dive into the Hellfire Crisis, blast off into unknown space, and prepare for Free RPG day with our new releases!

Reminder that swearing is against the forum rules, everyone!

Just as an update here everyone! I'm following up with the tech team about this today!

Thank you!

Sometimes it's nice being wrong :)

You're welcome! I'll let you know when I see that it's up!

Eyes peeled for this thread.
