Scarred lands is coming to pathfinder courtesy of Onyx Path, they have already release one short adventure for pathfinder. As for the other settings, don't rule anything out, Wotc has been doing joint projects with several third party publishers lately.
There have been several fan attempts at a Transformers RPG, the best one I have seen so far is the White Wolf adaption, which uses the a modified Storyteller system.
Deja vu, it's another “Psionics in Pathfinder” thread! I am eager to see what the Paizo team draws up for a "possible" revamp in Psionics or Psychic Magic. Too bad Psionics in a DnD-like setting has left such a deep wounded scar caused by a Morgul-blade on so many DMs and game developers alike. For now or forever, I am happy with Dreamscarred's product. Like all things mighty and powerful, there is always a weakness in their armor or robe.
Another product I want to see is a Golarion Campaign Guide. It is sad that I know more about the Forgotten Realms prior to version 4.0 than I know about Golarion in the last 3 to 4 years I have been playing Pathfinder.
Have you looked at the Inner Sea World Guide it is the campaign setting hardback for Golarion. The pdf is only $9.99.

Once triggered, the spell is expended. If the subject is killed (the trigger), he or she is restored to life and complete health 1 minute later, so long as even a tiny bit of dust remains for contingent resurrection to act upon. A shaft of light shines down from the heavens, illuminating the subject and everything within 20 feet. The creature is restored to full hit points, vigor, and health, with no loss of prepared spells.

The subject will not willingly leave the plane for 20 hours, believing that his or her predicament is a just reward for an ill-spent life. Even after the compulsion fades, he or she must devise his or her own escape from the plane. Unless the GM devises a specific location and scenario in Hell, the subject encounters a group of 1d4 pit fiends (or balors, if in a chaotic evil plane) every hour he or she spends in hell.

If the save fails, the target remains in its exact position with no apparent ill effects. In reality, it is now a ghoul under the character’s control. The target’s companions notice nothing unusual about the state of the target until they interact with it, at which time each companion receives a Will saving throw to notice discrepancies. The ghoul serves the character indefinitely.

Now that people are getting a better idea of what is out there now that Distant Planets is out, who would like Paizo to publish an AP that visits some of those planets? I know I would buy it in a heartbeat.
Here are my modification to the sorcerer class, I have felt that the restrictions on spell known for the class was a bit harsh, so changed it from spell slots to spell point for casting so the sorcerer has more flexibility in the spells it does know.
She can cast any spell she knows at any time, assuming she has not yet used up her mana per day. The sorcerer must be careful on how she expends her mana however. Whenever her remaining mana is less than or equal to her caster level, she becomes fatigued. When the sorcerer has run out of mana entirely, she becomes exhausted. These penalties last until the sorcerer has recovered her mana. Effects the remove or negate fatigue or exhaustion can temporally remove the Charisma penalty for a number of minutes equal to the caster level of the effect, but if the mana of the sorcerer hasn’t risen sufficiently, she suffers again the Charisma penalty and fatigue or exhaustion as appropriate.
Sorcery: Many spells have variable effects that only sorcerers can access and use. As they master the spells they know, they can use more mana to make the spell more powerful, based on the number of additional mana they spend when they cast them. The more mana spent, the more powerful the casting. How this extra expenditure affects a spell is specific to the spell. Some sorceries allow the sorcerer to increase the number of damage dice, while others extend a spell’s duration or modify a spell in unique ways. Each spell that can be enhanced with sorcery includes an entry giving how many mana costs to enhance and the effects of doing so. However, the sorcerer can spend only a total number of mana on a spell equal to her sorcerer caster level.
Adding sorcery to spell takes place as part of another action (casting a spell). Unless otherwise noted in the Sorcery section of an individual spell description, the sorcerer can enhance a spell with sorcery only at the time she casts it.
I have been running a Kingmaker campaign for a while now, and it looks like the players will want to keep playing the campaign after the AP ends,so I have been thinking about how to do mechanics for play past 20th level. Looking around, I came across the concept of E6, where characters continue to gain feats with XP after hitting the level cap and thought that should work for my game until Paizo releases an epic book.
So I went and compiled and created some feats to go with the Corebook and the APG, and I would like the messageboard's thoughts and suggestions on them, and the concept in general.
Rules
Character progression from level 1 to level 20 is as per PFRPG. Upon attaining 20th level, the character consults the chart below to see how much additional experience is required to earn an additional feat.
For the purpose of designing encounters, treat each additional 5,000,000 XP as +1 CR (or level).

If the item or substance deals damage, double the damage dealt. If the item or substance doesn’t deal damage, double the duration of its effect. If the item or substance doesn’t deal damage and doesn’t have a specific listed duration (or has an instantaneous duration), double all dimensions of its area. If the item or substance doesn’t fit any of these categories, then it cannot be affected by this feat. See the Craft (alchemy) skill description.
AUTOMATIC QUICKEN SPELL
Prerequisites: Quicken Spell, Spellcraft 23 ranks, ability to cast 9th-level arcane or divine spells.
Benefit: The character may cast all 0-, and 1st spells as quickened spells without using higher-level spell slots. The normal limit to the number of quickened spells a character may cast per round applies. Spells with a casting time of more than 1 full round can’t be quickened.

Each time a character takes the feat, the spells of his or her next 3 lowest spell levels can now be silenced with no adjustment to their spell slots. This feat doesn’t increase the casting time for those spells that normally become full-round actions when cast in metamagic form. However, since bard spells can’t be enhanced with the Silent Spell feat, they can’t be affected by this feat either.
AUTOMATIC STILL SPELL
Prerequisites: Still Spell, Spellcraft 20 ranks, ability to cast 9th-level arcane or divine spells.
Benefit: The character may cast all 0-, 1st, and 2nd-level spells as stilled spells without using higher-level spell slots.

The deafening effect lasts for as long as the character continues the deafening song. The character can choose to exclude any characters from this effect. The character may sing, play, or recite a deafening song while taking other mundane actions, but not magical ones (see the bard’s inspire courage ability for more details).

Benefit: The damage cap for your spells increases by 10 dice for spells that deal a number of damage equal to your caster level (such as fireball) or by 5 dice for spells that deal a number of damage equal to half your caster level (such as searing light). An enhanced spell uses up a spell slot four levels higher than the spell’s actual level (or as modified by any other metamagic feats).
For damaging spells that are affected by your level in other ways, treat the damage cap as if it were 10 levels higher. For example, an enhanced magic missile cast by a 19 level caster would fire 10 missiles.

The character can choose to exclude any characters from this effect. The character may sing, play, or recite a hindering song while taking other mundane actions, but not magical ones (see the bard’s inspire courage ability for more details). The character may keep up the hindering song for a maximum of 10 rounds. Using the hindering song counts as a round of the character’s bardic performance for the day.
IMMEDIATE SPELL [METAMAGIC]
Your spells are supernaturally fast.
Prerequisite: Quicken Spell, Combat Reflexes
Benefit: The casting time of an immediate spell is an immediate action (see page 189 of the PFRPG Corebook).

However, this uses your swift action for the round, and you cannot cast an immediate or quickened spell if you have no swift actions available. A spell whose casting time is more than 1 full round action cannot be altered by this feat. An immediate spell uses up a spell slot five levels higher than the spell’s actual level. Casting an immediate spell doesn’t provoke an attack of opportunity.

When using the Improved Whirlwind feat, the character also forfeits any bonus or extra attacks granted by other spells or abilities (such as Cleave or the haste spell).
Since these attacks are made as part of a standard action the character can’t make a 5-foot step between any two of the attacks.
Normal: Without this feat, using the Whirlwind Attack feat requires a full attack action, and the character can take a 5-foot step between any two of the attacks.

Benefit: While in a rage, the character ignores the hardness of any object he or she strikes. Also, double the character’s Strength bonus for the purposes of any Strength check made to break an object with sudden force rather than by dealing normal damage (including bursting bindings, such as ropes or manacles).
SPELL STOWAWAY

Benefit: Choose a spell-like ability the character knows, or a spell the character can cast. The character is attuned to the magic he or she chooses. If another spellcaster within 300 feet of the character uses this magic, the character also immediately gains the magic’s effect as if it had been used on the character by the same caster. The character must have direct line of effect to the spellcaster in order to gain the benefit of the attuned magic (though the character does not have to know the spellcaster is present, and he or she can be flat-footed). The magic’s duration, effect, and other specifics are determined by its original caster’s level.

Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Will negates
Spell Resistance: Yes
Nailed to the sky actually places the target so far from the surface of the world and at such a speed that it keeps missing the surface as it falls back, so it enters an eternal orbit. Unless the target can magically fly or has some other form of non-physical propulsion available, the target is stuck until someone else rescues it. Even if the target can fly, the surface is 2 to 4 hours away, assuming a fly spell, which allows a maximum speed of 720 feet per round while descending. The target may not survive that long. Depending on the world where nailed to the sky is cast, conditions so far from its surface may be deadly. Deleterious effects include scorching heat, cold, and vacuum.

Level: Druid 11
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: 0 ft.
Area: 2-mile-radius emanation
Duration: 24 hours
Saving Throw: Reflex negates (see text)
Spell Resistance: Yes
This spell summons a swirling thunderstorm that rains fire rather than raindrops down on the character and everything within a two-mile radius of him or her. Everything caught unprotected or unsheltered in the flaming deluge takes 1d6 point of fire damage each round. A successful Reflex save results in no damage, but the save must be repeated each round. Unless the ground is exceedingly damp, all vegetation is eventually blackened and destroyed, leaving behind a barren wasteland similar to the aftermath of a grass or forest fire. The fiery storm is stationary and persists even if the caster leaves.
Raise Island
Conjuration (Creation)
Level: Druid 10, wizard 10
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 1 day
Range: 0 ft.
Area: 100-ft.-radius hemispherical island
Duration: Permanent
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No
The character can literally raise a new island from out of the sea, bringing to the surface a sandy or rocky but otherwise barren protrusion that is solid, stable, and permanently established. The island is roughly circular and about 200 feet in diameter. Raise island only works if the ocean is less than 1,000 feet deep where the spell is cast.
Safe Time
Conjuration [Teleportation]
Level: Wizard 12
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Touch
Target: You or creature touched
Duration: Contingent until expended, then 1 round of safe time
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No
Safe time can move the character (or the target) out of harm’s way by shunting him or her into a static time stream. Once cast, the spell remains quiescent and does not activate until the trigger conditions have been met. Each day it remains untriggered, it uses up a spell slot, even if you cast it on another creature. Once triggered, the spell is expended normally. When the character would otherwise be subject to any instantaneous effect that would deal him or her 50 or more points of damage, he or she is instead transported to a static time stream where time ceases to flow. The character’s condition becomes fixed—no force or effect can harm him or her until 1 round of real time has passed. Thus, the character avoids the damage he or she would otherwise receive, but the character also misses out on one round of activity. To the character, no time passes at all, but to onlookers who are part of real time, the character stands frozen and fixed in space for 1 full round.
Soul Dominion
Divination, Enchantment (Compulsion) [Mind-Affecting]
Level: Witch 12, Wizard 12
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 10 minutes
Range: See text
Target: One other living creature
Duration: 20 minutes (D)
Saving Throw: Will negates (see text)
Spell Resistance: No
When a character casts this spell, he or she is temporarily able to take control of another sentient creature with whom the character is familiar (by meeting, observing, or successfully scrying the subject). The target receives a Will save, and if successful, prevents the character from making the telepathic connection. The target is aware of the attempted takeover as a strange, momentary tingling. If the Will save fails, the character is able to control the subject’s body as if it were his or her own, hearing, seeing, feeling, smelling, and tasting everything the target senses. Once the character dismisses the spell or its duration ends, the target resumes control of its body, fully aware of all events that occurred, having been a helpless witness trapped inside its own body. The target knows the name and general nature of its possessor if it succeeds at an additional Will saving throw. A character cannot control undead or incorporeal creatures with soul dominion.
Soul Scry
Divination
Level: Witch 11, Wizard 11
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 10 minutes
Range: See text
Target: One other living creature
Duration: 20 minutes (D)
Saving Throw: Will negates
Spell Resistance: No
When a character casts this spell, he or she is temporarily able to tap the consciousness of another sentient creature with whom the character is familiar (by meeting, observing, or successfully scrying the subject), experiencing everything he or she does with all five senses. The target receives a Will save, and if successful, prevents the character from making the telepathic connection. Whether the saving throw is successful or not, the target is unaware of the attempted intrusion. Once the subject is tapped, the character is able to hear, see, feel, smell, and taste everything the subject senses. The character cannot control the subject, however. The character can only see what the subject chooses to look at, and the character tastes something only if the subject eats or drinks it during the spell’s duration. During this time, the character’s own body remains in a trance-like state. If the subject takes damage, the character senses the injuries, although his or her own body does not actually suffer any ill effects. If the subject is knocked unconscious or killed, the spell immediately ends.
Starshine upon the People
Conjuration (Healing)
Level: Cleric 10
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 1 minute
Range: 40 ft.
Area: All creatures within a 40-ft.-radius spread, centered on you
Duration: Instantaneous and 24 hours; see text
Saving Throw: Will negates (harmless)
Spell Resistance: Yes (harmless)
You lead a number of your allies in a ritual of chant and dance that cleanses the participants and spiritually. A shower of glittering stardust descends over the area, settling upon the participants and channeling positive energy to heal and empower them. The starshine removes all dirt and grime from creatures and equipment in the spell’s area. It also cures all diseases, blindness, deafness, hit point damage, and temporary ability damage that afflicts the subjects, and it offsets feeblemindedness and cures mental disorders caused by spells or effects or injuries to the brain. Furthermore, it neutralizes poisons in the subject’s systems so that they suffer no additional damage or ill effects from those toxins. In addition, it dispels all magical effects penalizing the subjects’ abilities.
Once the ritual is complete, a blessing settles upon all participants, granting each a +1 morale bonus on attack rolls for the next 24 hours.
Verdigris
Conjuration (Creation)
Level: Druid 10
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level)
Area: 100-ft.-radius hemisphere
Duration: 24 hours
Saving Throw: Reflex half
Spell Resistance: No
This spell creates a tsunami of grass, shrubs, and trees that overgrows the area like a tidal wave. The plant growth creeps and curls across every-thing in the area, ensnaring it and coiling around it as if it had been growing there for a century or more. Creatures in the area must make a Reflex saving throw to avoid the fast-moving growth, which otherwise deals 20d6 points of damage from the crushing press. Buildings are engulfed and they likewise take 20d6 points of damage. Those destroyed by the damage have their foundations uprooted and walls crumbled. The plant growth remains for 24 hours, after which it vanishes.
