Hi everyone,

Sorry if this is in the wrong section! I would just like to know who the artist is behind the artwork featured in the City Guard entry in the Game Master's Guide (and on the male Human Fighter cardboard pawn) in the Beginner Box. Also, if anyone can find the artwork online, would you be able to post a link here please (assuming that doesn't break any copyrights or other rules)? I have tried Google searching for the image with every variant of "human fighter" I can think of. Also tried searching DeviantArt and the Pathfinder wiki for it, and even tried searching for each credited artist in the book, but still no luck.

Thanks and cheers!

Hey everyone, I'm hoping to start up a Pathfinder group in my local area, using the beginner box as a starting point, but before I do so I just have a few questions. If anyone could answer them, it'd be greatly appreciated.

1. How many players make up an "ideal" party? The box comes with 4 pre-gen characters but the standard for D&D is/was (I believe) 5?

2. I noticed in a video preview that the "Hero's Handbook" has a walk-through solo adventure, used to teach the rules. Will I need to get all my players to run through that? If so, should I do that individually or take them all through at once (since I believe it's a linear adventure, as opposed to D&D's choose-your-own)?

3. How long does character creation take? Is it recommended to play with the pre-gen characters first, due to them having the character sheets with explanations?

I'll add any more questions as I think of them, but any input would be great, thanks
