Congrats to all those new coin holders, to Half the Sky on her 5th Glyph, and a thousand thanks and well wishes to Linda on the next chapter of her journey!

We now know that the god who dies is not Pharasma. If it were, the psychpomp would not be able to present the book to her as a gift.

Actually we do not. The authors have clarified that nothing can be inferred from this book about which Core 20 deity dies.

Very true, but as a crackpot Sherlock wannabe, I have cleverly deduced through complete guessing and the ignoring of facts that the dead deity shall not be Arazni, Sarenrae, Pharasma, or Asmodeus. They are all present on the cover of the new book (three in stained glass, one as an official designated bird holder). I think I'm going to add Rovagug as a fifth 'not-gonna-die' deity as well, as I have just now decided that the purple and black rose looking thing below stained glass Sarenrae is Mr. Vagug himself.

We're on to you, Paizo. Your secrets are forfeit. Probably.

I never knew I needed a shark with a hat in my life so badly until this very moment.

Can we talk ancestries for a minute? Because I'm having a very "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY ACP" moment in my mind right now.

Many congrats to Joel, Cy, and Terry!

Also, I can't wait to run a heist on Shiela Heidmarch. I'm foolishly presuming that's what it'll be all about. Possibly a bad idea, but I know a Summoner who is arrogant enough to think they can pull something like that off, so...

Ooh! Lemme at the leaderboards! I can't wait to get a whole lotta questions at least 40% wrong!

(Look, I'm not saying they aren't NOT space-faring fish that threw a rock at us, I'm just saying that it was a really big rock and fins can't maintain that kind of grip probably.)

*awards self 10 points for this "fact", putting me in the lead*

I don't think I've yet met Taiwalei in my PFS adventures, but I've come to absolutely adore Safa after Season 3, and I'm super jazzed to see them as a Venture-Captain.

Very cool. I'm glad they just did some retcon on Gom-Gom rather than say Yoon lost her stuffed animal somewhere in the last 10 years, it's a really cool touch that she still has it.

Hope that ship didn't burn down on landing. :D

I am absolutely delighted to be wrong on my prediction of who Baranthet has become, and super jazzed to hear about more of the book at Paizocon!

I've met some people with hallucinatory breath, but then I politely offered them a mint and it was a little better. :D

I love the idea of a dragon just hanging out in "plain sight" with illusions keeping everyone away, or them just interacting with a dragon as if it was a merchant stall or something. "Yes, hello! I am normal merchant man, selling wares for your shiniest gold!"

I love the slow reveal of who Grandmother and Barenthet are as a people. Super curious to discover what this might be teasing for the future.

To quote a legendary Pirate Captain, "The code is more like guidelines."

I feel like keeping that in the back of your head will help a lot with an understanding of both the rules, and of the table variance you would see should you sit at a PFS table.

I'm already waiting with Baranthet for Grandmother's next story.

If I had to summarize all this into one sentence, I'd probably say something like, "Looks like the fallout from the 'OGL incident' has allowed for an avalanche of errata to drop."

I'm sure I'd be over-simplifying things if I said that, but that's about where I'd put things right now.

Alright Paizo, color me very intruiged.

I love all the visits to Dacilane Academy, and I can not wait to prank as many players as possible! (That's probably how this plays out, right?)

I am incredibly basic when it comes to pie and do love me a good Chocolate Cream Pie!

This looks fantastic. Super hyped to see Samsarans back in the mix, and the Tanuki looks great! And I can't wait to see what Ameiko's done with the place.

I don't know who that very tired looking electrified lady is, but I'm already planning on playing her as Lydia from Beetlejuice when I run this one!

VERY very cool. Kudos to Nicholas and Jimmy for putting this together!

Congratulations on your retirement, and thank you for all the games.

I'm gonna stop flailing every time I see an ancestry ACP cost go down after I've bought it, and just make it part of my personality at this point. XD

Wait, ok one more *FETCHLING FLAIL* Alright, now I'm done.

Came for a story and got politics. Disappointing.

There's a werewolf attack in there too. At least that's what I got. Maybe drop another quarter in the claw machine and try again? I hear you can get something different every time.

And on the extreme end, there is this.

*stares in wonder*

...oh.

We're just letting kids into the Maze of the Open Road now?! That is ridiculous, are we insane?! I love it, I can't wait to go!

I've got a Cleric itching to get back to Osirion and inflict some justice on those undead. Glad the wait isn't long! And more Arcadia (and replayables!) is always a good time.

(I really need to play more Starfinder, the headless spider-bot looks awesome!)

Congrats Steven, Jocelyn, and Nicholas!!

Super excited for a new PFS2 replayable too!

Ghost Champion (Paladin) of Sarenrae with the Marshal archetype. Doesn't remember her name. Goes by "Silverspire", as that's the only jumble of words that comes to her when she tries to remember being alive. Feels the need to join and defend the Pathfinder Society. Destroys her own kind (undead) with reckless abandon, commands her companions to better accomplish these ends.

I'm not saying this could be Ollysta Zadrian, but I'm not NOT saying that either.

You can shake it all around
You can go up and down
You can lose what you found
But you can't ignore my techno

You can trip on my
You can trip on my
You can trip on my
You can trip, you can trip
You can trip on my synthesizer
You can trip on my synthesizer
Let's go

Electric Six - Synthesizer

Is this for the beach episode of the AP? Cause I'm gonna use it for the beach episode of the AP.

My bets/guesses/desperate desires are Inquisitor and whatever a Solarian would be in PF2.

And for the love of all that is holy (pun fully intended), more Doctrines for Clerics!

Oh ho ho! Lookie at all this here!

*several clicks later*

Color me signed up and ready to run some online tables. 2022 is definitely my year to return to in-person conventions, but that's not stopping me from rolling digital crits! (crit failures are still crits, they count!)

Looking forward to the web fiction of Zonya, Alex, and Minda's adventures!

Here's to hoping the Covid adjacent author critically succeeds their Fortitude save (or passes on a circumstance bonus to whomever needs it).

I had a very different image in my head when I read 'Heaving Kobolds'. This encounter is much better, I think!

A life sized Goblin is something I never knew I always needed until I saw Erik Mona hoist it up next to him on a Paizo Twitch stream.

I await the chance to have Gobbo-delivery to my door.

Congratulations on all the movements, and...

** spoiler omitted ** :P

Just take my AcP now!!

Another shuffling of the Paizo Deck of many Developers!

Congrats to folks in their new official positions! Now to solve the Case of the Missing Case.

With a very 'have my cake and eat it too' mindset, I'm glad to see The Pathfinder Trials finally get released...but I hope the original concept of a new player interactive gets revisited when we're all allowed in the same room together again.

I get AoE's lack of sanctioning, though I wish it weren't so.

But I'm pretty psyched to be an adventuring doggo!

I feel like this would also be perfect for a PFS character you love so much you play them on slow progression.

My Wizard is very much so built around being far away from people with knives who like to stab, so as long as there's something resembling a front line, I'm not often hit. I'm comfortable staying 50 or so feet behind where the swords are swinging, firing spells and arrows over my friend's heads and into the throngs of bad guys.

When I am hit, though, I crumple like a wet napkin. It's a bad scene.

Congrats Michael!

And also, this piece of fiction is awesome. So...double congrats?

Double congrats!

Oh man, my VTT tables thank you, and so do I.

I ship the lashunta gladiator and the kasathan Bill Nye...someone help.

Roger that. I will help you ship this ship that I never knew needed shipping until you brought it to all of our attention.

110% on board and reporting for duty.

This is a super cool idea for a recurring blog. Tease out the new feats, explore new ideas for character builds, and give us GMs a few extra tools in the ol' box!

CTRL+C and CTRL+V got a little bit of a workout just now on my computer, and I got a new text file in the 'just in case' folder. This is seriously awesome. Thanks!

*wipes away a tear* I always knew you two crazy kids would get together someday!

This is beautiful, James. Thank you.

Why does Janira have pointed ears?

I'm pretty sure she's just wearing a pair of cosplay Elf ears these days.

Thanks for the update Tonya!

Aww man, this was gonna be my first Paizocon too. Jeez gang, you just had to say ya didn't want me to go. :D

For real though, I hate that it had to happen, but I know it's the right move to make. Stay safe everybody. Let's do this at a less plagued date.

I've already had a couple of great interactions with Joan in helping me sort out a pdf debacle or two. The names change, but the awesome customer service does not!

Congrats to all! (and thanks again, Joan!)

Navasi rolling her eyes with Iseph behind her played out in my mind like a movie. What a story.

#JusticeForBuddy

Paizo, I love you. Every single one of you.

But especially whoever it was that made the case for Valais Durant to be a Faction Leader. She's been my own personal Venture-Captain ever since she introduced herself amongst a bunch of dusty bookshelves long ago.

I don't fully understand yet how characters will apply themselves to factions, but I assure you my first PFS2 character will be a member of the Radiant Oath.

On the stream today, Sara Marie mentioned that her character might still need a last name.

Should Carina want it, the Thunderpike clan would welcome you with open arms. :D

Most of my Dwarves are named Thunderpike, so if nothing else she might have distant relatives out there somewhere playing in Pathfinder Society.
