Hey Proley.

I haven't got a group of my own, but if a spot ever opens up in your group I'd be interested in meeting up with you to play. I've been RPGing since I was 15 (now 40), and haven't been able to scratch my gaming itch since I moved here from Halifax in 2009.

I dunno if there is a similar thread, but here's the first if not.

I've heard word of Paizo doing a Bestiary II and, as far off as that is, I'd like to start a "Wish List" nice and early.

So, here're some things I'd like to see in Bestiary II:

---More Giants
---More Fey
---New Linnorms
---New Inevitables
---New Outsiders (azati, agathion, axiomites, angels, etc.)

But one set of creatures I'd like to see more of, and I think it'd be an interesting set of new dragons for Pathfinder, are new Arcane Dragons from Dragon Magazine #343. (or something similar, you guys can still use them right, or do your own version?) The Tome and Hex Dragons were in that, and it looked as if it was planned to be extended but the sudden end of Dragon's publication prevented that, it seems.

I have a request for stuff NOT to show up. Please do not create Bestiary entries that are just existing monsters with class levels, like a lot of MM IV and V were...

Kids, this is what a vampire oughtta look like.

*sigh*
Get off of teh interwebz. You need some sun.

Heh, yeah. 30 Days of Night was the last good vamp film made.

It's a problem a few people have had. Update your PDF viewer.

Thanks, that's all I needed...

Hey fellas, am I the only person who has downloaded this pdf and has no text on roughly every other page? I've never had this problem with the Alpha downloads?

Oddly enough, that was the exact cause of the last TPK in our party.

I haven't been buying dragon for that long (first issue I bought was #310), but recently I've started buying backissues. Since it would be a good idea for a thread anyway, I'm starting this thread to get info on what you think were some of the best issues ever (and conqequently help me with my shopping list).

Note: Magazines that cost only $6.00 are the best (#286 and more recent).

Sorry to be JUST out of your range, but my current favorite issue is #278 (or 279?) the Elves issue with the awesome Drizzt artwork on the cover. I've just recently finished an Elf Druid character and a great deal of his character background came from this magazine, as well as a lot of the Elf terminology (place names, etc) came from playing with the Elven Lexicon in the issue. Just a very rich episode.

I would love to see similar Pidgin Racial Language Lexicons for other races (Gnome or Sylvan, perhaps?) in future issues.

I've noticed that the combat oriented characters in my current adventuring party run the gamut in combat styles. It's interesting to watch, because in different situations, each style seems to get its chance to shine.

We have the "tank". A dwarf who likes nothing more than to wade into the thick of the fight with his bastard sword and slice and hack things.

We have the range specialist. Arrows, arrows, arrows, then take up the blade when things get too close.

We have the "man in motion". Or rather had. He died through no fault of his own. :-) but his style was that of the lightly armoured, tumble and dart abou, looking for the best position to get in one good hit, then dart about again.

Which of these fo you all prefer, and am I missing any?

So what's your favorite spell, or spell combination? I personally love Finger of Death because it's so cruel. One save and if you fail it....oh well!!

I've always been partial to the versatility of Stone Shape. I once captured the main villain in a game once by shaping the stone beneath him into the form of a hollow egg and encased the poor megalomaniac inside.
