In a fight, who do you think would win- a crocodile or midsized shark?
IceniQueen dresses as a bear, breaks into blonde women's houses, eats all the porridge, breaks the chairs, and when the woman comes down says, "What comes around, goes around, Blondie."
Love it. This is exactly how it should be used. I hope having his armor trashed scared the heaven out of the cavalier.
I had a few haunts in a battlefield in Pathways 3. It's free. I've contributed haunt articles to most of the Pathways. They're all free and all available through this site.
I would use a lot of minor haunts that produce ghost sounds or harmless illusions, a few minor haunts with more serious effects that can be triggered by undead, and a handful of heavier haunts. Use enough haunts that the players feel embattled.
My 30 Haunts for Ships and Shores has a series of haunts related to a mutiny, the wrecking of a ship upon the rocks, and a battle with some reavers that could have the fluff changed to work for this. It's not free, but it's cheap.
Nastier druid spells and ranger spells often translate well into outdoor haunts. (For example, the spell 'entangle' could be the basis for a field of grasping hands).
Yeah, I knew a woman who was bluish-grey back in my hometown. It freaked a lot of people out at first, but you got used to it. I think hers was the side effect of some kind of internal organ failure though. Her body had trouble eliminating excess hemoglobin.
This is so sad. I just noticed this thread.
Organizing a new program at a university can consume a ridiculous amount of time. (Just ask Nick Logue.)
I got a promotion yesterday though. (Change in rank; not much change in job description.) Woohoo.

Thanks for the review, KTFish7.
Thanks for the review, Endzeitgeist. I had a lot of fun with this one. I can't play favorites between my children though. ;-)
Alcoholic hill giant with a co-dependent relationship with the goblins. Keep it old school.
So, is it your birthday yet? BTW, gamer-printer, you've made 666 posts at this moment. :-O
Thanks for getting this up!
I love the cover artwork for this one.

Maybe it's a rivalry thing: "But all the other evil wizards have puzzle traps!"
I've been thinking about puzzle traps that are more natural. For example, a lock that requires weights of the right amount in order to open. I have a few ideas, but not 30.
Thanks, Taig, I'm pretty happy about that.
You're welcome, KTFish7, and thank you for the review.
I laughed at the thought of an evil wizard thinking, "Yes, a sudoku trap would go quite well here."
He's a rogue 20 with some kind of arcane artificer PrC ... He has passed the test of the Starstone and achieved divine status.

James Jacobs wrote: Tengu already ARE found in the Inner Sea region, in fact. The other four races can certainly be found in the Inner Sea Region, but are pretty rare, just as dwarves and halflings and gnomes and half-orcs are pretty rare in Tian Xia. And just as there are tengu in the Inner Sea region, there are elves in the Dragon Empires.
I tend to spend a lot more time brainstorming than I do writing. If I was doing this again, I'd probably start with a grid with character classes across the top and goals down the side and then brainstorm ideas to help with each. Then I'd choose several I liked and think about the feeling I'd want to associate with them, brainstorming a few adjectives for each. Then, I'd work on the mechanics. Along the way, I'd jot notes, but I'd leave the writing until the end.
I'd say my brainstorming/mechanics time is ten times my writing time.
Love the art in this. Joe Calkin's art is inspiring.
I was delighted to see an unexpected fleshgrafter in this issue. The Wardens of the Darkened Heart will be watching Mr. Sorbus Venn.
Thank you for the review, End. (Yes, China Miéville did inspire some of the grafts.)
Ulgulanoth, regarding taking grab as a feat, I'd leave that up to GM discretion, but my intention is that it could replace the feat gained at odd levels. I guess a generous GM could make it available in place of a bonus feat if it fit the class.
Hi Ulgulanoth,
I've devised the fleshgrafts following the magic item creation rules, but noted some ways in which these differ from magic items.
I would love to hear what you think about the decisions I made regarding the pricing and potency of these fleshgrafts. A lot of the decisions were rather tough, but I wanted to allow for a novel set of items without creating a whole new set of subrules.
Cheers,
Trevor
Thanks for getting this up there, Liz.

like the "puppet" in Hellboy 1. clockwork everything...
That's not one I did. The fleshgrafts in this volume all involve flesh or organs or bone being grafted onto flesh.
A fleshgrafter with Craft Construct and Craft Flesh could probably do the job.
It's hard to stat though. It's one arm. Would it grant a strength bonus or a strength bonus to that one arm alone? Which checks would it help you with? Attacks with that arm, of course, but which checks would it give its full bonus to and which ones only a half bonus?

I think those are ALL reasonable demands.
This is a little long, but I think it makes the point:
** spoiler omitted **... So, where do these protestors get off making "demands" that call for anything other than a democratic process. This is where they lose me.
I'm going to OCCUPY the left side of my living room sofa and leave the outdoor stuff to those less susceptible to colds. "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need."

Two positive reviews in one day. Thanks to both of you for taking the time!
I feel envy. Gorgeous pumpkin!

I used the product extensively for the first two of Carrion Crown and probably more later. It is an absolutely perfect fit. I'd honestly love to see more haunts! You've seen 30 Haunts for Objects, right?

I guess I should let him out of the box then. Only if you feel he's been punished enough.

I thought I was over you, Paizo, but this itch proves I'm still hooked.

What about NOW?
Thanks for the review, Megan!
You'll know when it's here, Dennis.
I love the images Steve picked for this one. There is consistency in the style and creepiness.
A series of small glowing orbs -- at least a dozen of them -- begin to weave in and out among the gathered male slaves. They stop in front of each one, circle around, and move on. The slaves find this very disconcerting.
Ovirid hears something happening on the road. The female slaves departing the camp are agitated.
The lantern archon easily slips into place. Anyone who sees it mistakes it for another ball of light.
If you enjoyed this collection of haunts, you'll love what's coming next.
We've started to get the rainfall here in Eastern Quebec and they say it will stay with us for a while, but so far it is just pleasant.
It's supposed to be just a tropical storm before it hits us in Eastern Quebec. Still, we've had a lot of flooding in this region so we're taking it seriously.
I heard a Canadian farmer on CBC yesterday talking about how well-prepared Canada was to grow hemp and how we kick American butts in the hemp market if the gloves came off.
Let's get it on!
