The forums are still too long. Kaeyoss' baby is all gwowed up. They started this nonsense years ago when somebody posted that the forums were too long and we posted single words of a sentence to prove them right. Now it is on thread 6, and so incredibly impossible to ever parse.

This forum is WAY too long.


Curt response that is sufficiently ambiguous that the insult might not be.


Indeed.

Perhaps I can elaborate. Sometimes when I try to access United States sites, I get an error message that says my Internet Provider is banned because of a history of unprovoked attacks. I then need to use a VPN to bypass the ban. Is this what has happened to you?

In my case, I have broadband, and basic internet access. The basic internet access cannot open Paizo.com, Rpg.net, facebook.com or other sites, but by using the broadband the problem disappears.

Perhaps you are misunderstanding the technical nature of the issue. It is not that Korea is banned. Perhaps your Internet Service Provider is blacklisted.

I am not customer support, but am just stepping in to help.


See: Gate, Innaposite.
See also: Rule one.

In our campaign, the characters have a pocketwatch from an alternate Crimean war dimension. It finds gates, which they go through, as themselves. They can then choose to grab stuff they can use as translation keys.

They also have a mission to accomplish. They came close to killing the betrayer, and lost all memory of a two week period.

They are also from different realities. One is a Rukian Chrysalid, and the other was a cybermancer from an unfinished cyberpunk manga.

They have been in a black and white world that is an american fascists dream, a landscape where the moon was an apex predator in an organic crystal cave, a small recursion where a boy called Kevin was the most loved and liked person in the world, and a Mills and Boone version of ancient Athens that was being strip mined by pawns of the Betrayer. They have shot a mother to keep her from killing her child while mind controlled, negotiated a peace treaty with an artificial intelligence that was powered by whale oil, struggled to survive in a fantasy land where the food had the opposite genetic chirality, hitchiked in an alternate Seattle under Nazi occupation, been plush toys looking for a retired oracle in the land of Noddy, and shot a gremlin on the wing of a plane.

You say broken. I say free.


Please cancel my subscription to the Pathfinder Adventure Path. End my subscription to the campaign setting line too.

I have been with you all since the beginning, and have been (perhaps inordinately) proud of my charter tag, but I have enough Pathfinder now.

I have twenty two hardcovers, 102 adventure path volumes, seven modules, and every bit of setting lore you have brought out since before the gazetteer. When my son is older, he will have enough adventures to last a lifetime. I also still have a metre high stack of Dungeon magazines in my storage.

Enough is enough. I rolled my will save against hoarding.

Thank you all for your work, and your play.

Are on hold for someone.


I think I picked the worst possible time of year for this. I will bump this thread after the online sale season. If you somehow stumble on this thread, and want to buy something, feel free to message me. Please also post in this thread.


Occult Adventures, and Pathfinder Unchained, are now sold.


The three Books of the Damned, and Castles of the Inner Sea are now on hold for someone.

Please post in the thread if you are interested in any of these books, as otherwise it looks like nothing is happening, and the thread does not get the little bumps it needs.

Thank you.


I forgot to mention that I will pay for shipping on orders larger than US$20.00 .
I live in Taiwan, so the cost of mailing things is a little high.

Someone has privately messaged interest in:

Elves of Golarion

And I have an off-forum offer for:

Pathfinder Unchained


I have kept a subscription to the Pathfinder Role Playing Game line since the days of the beta.

Recently, I have been running Cypher System games, and every time I look at my shelves of Pathfinder rule-books, I feel the weight of them.

I intend to run Pathfinder again, but when I do, I will use only what I consider the most essential rulebooks, and bestiaries. Everything else is up for sale. This forum is the best place to find people who might be interested in picking up some hardcovers or some of the setting softcovers.

If I were to sell them on Amazon, or eBay, Paizo would get no benefit from the sale, so I wish to sell them here, and be paid in store credit. When you get the hardcover or softcover, you credit me the agreed amount.

All of the books are in excellent condition.

Here is what I am selling.

543. In 701 B.C.E, Sennacherib chooses to have his army take a few days to dig wells, instead of relying on the tainted water left to his army in the siege of Judah. Without the cholera epidemic in his ranks, the Assyrians handily reduce the Jews to slavery, and quell the rebellion. The Jews do not credit their monotheistic sky god with the victory, and sensibly adopt the religion of their conquerors.


No interest in The Strange. Duly noted.


The idea is to remove the bottlenecks that cause the friction and dead time in a PBP. By allowing the players some say, the adventure becomes surprising to me.

This is not simply a free-form experiment, however. There will be a plot, but there will still be a lot of space within that plot for player driven narrative.

Expect two or more posts a day.

The game will wrap up in about two months from the start, as this is not intended to be an epic, and is instead more of a short story.

Player characters are quickened, and may thus be from ANY genre or story. In my tabletop version of this game, one of the characters is Fremen, and the other is a malfunctioning Agent from the Matrix animation.

Expect horror and danger. Choose characters that will get up, bloody but unbroken and do the things that must be done.

The first week of the game will be prequels.

Tier one. No additional XP.

Three spaces. One Vector, One Spinner, One Paradox.

Build for your home recursion, but calculate your translation for Earth, Standard Physics.

Wealth and assets up to you.

Apply with character concept. Selection cut=off on June 1st.


I am looking for a few players for a short game of The Strange, a Cypher System RPG by Monte Cook Games.

The system and setting will be used to support a quick-paced and free moving game. In the Cypher System, players roll all the dice, so the applicant should be willing to share in the creation of the story to an extent unusual in PBPs.

For example, a character is in immanent danger of being discovered removing an embedded card from an interbabbage sub-brain in an office of the New Amsterdam Imperial Bureau of Investigation. The GM writes:

'As the door opens, you see a male figure backlit by the fluorescent orbs in the hallway. Light haloes through thin white hair. The man has coveralls, and a cart of cleaning products. He used the cart to push open the door, which grants him some cover. He is level 2. Level 3 versus ranged attacks, because of the polycarbonate cart. He has not noticed you, as he reaches for the light switch, but he will in about three seconds.

The player chooses an action, applies edge or effort, rolls the d20, in an out of character post, then narrates their action, AND THE RESULT, in world.

For an A.P, I strongly recommend retrofitting some of the Pathfinder Society scenarios instead. Use the factions as school houses. The Pathfinder venture can be re-skinned as faculty.

Personally, I wouldn't use Pathfinder at all. For a Potterverse style game, I would use Ars Magica. The fourth edition rules are available here:

Four kings of metal. Four metal kings.


I set my current Carrion Crown campaign in 1890s equivalent Golarion, with hydroelectric power, telegraphs, dynamite and a halfling George Costanza tabloid reporter messing things up for the party.

I am going to go the other way with Giantslayer. I am going to set it in the Age of Anguish, just after the Dwarves got to the surface. The sky will still be reddened by the dust of Starfall. There will be no gunpowder, alchemists, or printed works. Real points of light stuff. Humankind thinned out, and the orc hordes still the masters of the world. I will scratch my Earthdawn/ Midnight/ Dark Sun itches, and make it as grim and dark as I can.

After Belkzen, before Kazavon. The dwarves lost their hall in living memory.

Holy s~#!, how'd the dog make out?

A few years later, it bit a patient, and was put down.


A psychiatrist I lived with had an Anatolian shepherd. She threw away some expired drugs, which the dog chewed on when it raided the trash. The dog got loaded on benzodiazapines, amphetamines, and other disturbingly dangerous drugs, and went on a tear through the house. It chewed up everything it could get its slobbering maw on. It knocked everything EVERYTHING off of every surface. It chewed television, laptop, refrigerator, books and gun safe. It sprayed diarrhea behind itself while it did so. There was no square foot of carpet, bed, or tile that did not have pages of books, toilet paper, trash, pillow stuffing, or pills on it. After wreaking a staggering amount of mayhem, the little b#&&% had a seizure, and stopped.

Only one room was untouched by this ruin and wrack. My room. I kept my door closed. There were scratches on it, and it was almost broken off its hinges.
