Here we witness the start of what would become the Eoxians and the earliest ships in the Corpse Fleet.

Am I the only one who now wants a module about surviving Golarion World?

I'm hoping the Athamaru are in addition to Locathah, rather than a replacement or name change.

I'm pretty sure it's a name change since locathah is a D&D and thus probably an OGL term. Plus they do resemble each other and originate from the same city, so I'm almost positive that they are one and the same.

I adore the mermaid wheelchair. It will be painful to wait over a year for this book to release.

The wheelchair gives me ideas for my sacred nagaji...

I'm wondering if this means we'll get expanded feats for the "animal" ancestries already in play - cat/rat/dog/serpent/snake/lizard folk and perhaps some expanded ones for the Khulo which got shafted out of a weapon familiarity feat.

The Kholo (Gnolls) have one, unless I'm misunderstanding you? This guy.

You are right. I'm just upset that its one of the few weapon familiarity feats that is not future proofed with "You gain access to all uncommon gnoll weapons."

I could see Cecaelia as one of the other animal-like Ancestries.

One can only hope.

Am I the only one that now wants a 3-6 repeatable based on cleaning varmints out of the vaults? Should probably be a Vigilant Seal scenario.

The concept is absolutely amazing and I can see a lot of fun being had with such a story line. Something light-hearted but challenging.

Would love a Collectors Edition

Especially if it came with a Harrow Mat and/or carrying case.

What physical objects from the Lost Omens/Pact Worlds setting would you like to see them create?

I'd love a pocketwatch with the glyph of the open road. Perhaps with an internal light as well.

I'm guessing that they're going to change the SFS xp to more resemble that of PF2 in order to factor Bounties into things. Either that or you get .25 xp per each one.

WOOHOO!!!!

Any word on when these would be samctioned?

I'm even more impatient for the Fumbus kickstarter now.

Droven?? As in Fumbus's Droven??

I need the full NOVEL of their reunion.

Now please.

I'd still like to see the Psychic's Perception get boosted.. perhaps even to Legendary.

why are we getting just another version of the sorcerer? sigh

If this was another sorcerer with minor changes, I'd almost be happy with that. Instead, we get a spell caster who gets punished for being a spellcaster.

The unconscious mind would be a neat idea if it did something besides simply punish you for doing what you were designed/trained to do.

I'm talking with my players about opening up the Free Archetype. It seems clear that everyone should have access to either Arcane or Primal casting, but past that I don't see why it should be so restrictive.

Here's the two options we're looking at:

1. If you have Arcane or Primal casting from your base class, take whatever you want for your FA. Otherwise, you must take a FA which grants Arcane or Primal (Druid, Sorc, Witch, Wizard)

2. You must have access to an Arcane or Primal Cantrip by Level 2, and I don't care where it's from (innate Ancestry, base class, feat, or FA). Take whatever you want for FA.

We've been playing together for a long time, so I'm not worried about power-creep. Can anyone see any problems with this? Is there some special thing about Druid and Wizard Archetypes that I'm missing?

1. Opening it up to non-mystical archetypes is (IMO) begging for power creep and takes away from the clear mystical focus for this AP.

2. Biggest thing about the Druid and Wizard Archetypes that I can see is that they are prepared casters, which fits the theme of studying and learning magic. Another reason I'd probably expand it to witches.

Very promising, though I'm a bit surprised by the lack of a Sponsored by an Organization. I can easily see the Pathfinder Society, Aspic Consortium, and perhaps even the Technic League sponsoring people.

GM sign-up options include the beginner box, but there isn't enough time to run 1 group through both levels - as it's effectively two different scenarios.

I'd recommend splitting it up into the different levels - upper and lower.

I know that this is over a month late, but it's taken me a while to put everything in order and make some necessary connections.

I'm a Gamer of Color and have been gaming in one fashion or another for close to 3 decades now.

For the vast majority of this time, I have avoided playing elves and many of the pretty races. It's only recently that I've come to realize that this was because the elves (as presented in LOTR and D&D) were based on the sidhe and European fashions of beauty. That's not me. They didn't look like me. The dark-skinned elves were the Drow, which are so filled with issues that I don't even want to spend the energy on them.

Paizo initially captivated me because of Seelah. A black woman being the quintessential representation of 'ultimate' good? YES PLEASE!!!

With the advent of PF2 and the upcoming Mwangi book, I now *see* elves that aren't based on anything European. I see elves that look and *feel* like me.

For the first time in over 2 decades, I'm looking forward to playing an elf character. My elf has an afro and will be decked out in more South American and African-inspired garb and Paizo has made him feel like he *belongs* in Golarion.

Representation Matters. Thank you Paizo. I can't adequately say how much having visual and cultural diversity in your art and stories means to me.

Thank you. Diversity Matters, and you do a great job of it. DON'T STOP.

I'm hoping that the Inventor- specifically the Armor Innovation gets some love and variety besides the same cake with slightly different frosting.

I still think inventors should get a Level 8 feat that reduces reload time.

If you're going to stick to basic guns, what about the repeating revolvers from 1e? Would reduce the crappiness of both crossbows and in turn, it would help out the gunslinger at the same time.

Personally, I think the way of correcting the weapons with guns is to give them a small clip say no more than 3 or 4 bullets per 'clip'. Combined with 1 action to reload a round, should resolve both issues IMHO.

Between these two recent live stream interviews, something that got mentioned were a pair of weapon pages with specific mentions for Azarketi and Kobolds that I noticed. I gotta say that, while I did not expect it, I am excited at the prospect of new Kobold weapons.

Tail weapons!!!!

Yeah Explosion is not my jam at the moment. Seems fraught, and doesn't really fit with my idea of a lot of things.

As a feat maybe. As a basic, core ability I'm not really into it.

Same.

Honestly the idea of my weapon exploding is weird. Companion and armor I get and can at least visualize, but weapon is weird.

Now if the explosion changed in a way (and maybe wasn't called explosion) then that could work.

Like maybe Armor is an emanation, Companion is a breath weapon, and weapon is a line would feel a lot more like I'm not being forced to "explode" so much as I am releasing energy in a way my innovation supports.

This wouldn't be a bad idea if you decided the form that your explosion took at level 1 and stayed that way from then on.

"Just when I thought I was out... they pull me back in!"

That's why it's best to dive in with both feet!

If we look at PF1s previous base classes, we're only missing the Inquisitor and the Gunslinger.

That being said I'm hoping for the Kineticist. I have my PFS slot reserved for the Kineticist.

BRING IT!!! Please?

Nice! So season three of PFS will be the season of llamas and alpacas?

Don't forget Hats. ;)

All jokes aside, Thursty has a ton of great ideas for PFS and I'm really excited to see him stepping into leadership of that program. He's also given me a strong foundation to build on with Starfinder Society. I'm looking forward to see where our team takes both programs in the future!

Just for the record, you *don't* have to follow in Thursty's steps by crafting scenarios that have a death rate close to their pass rate. You really don't. You can be your own person and not cackle gleefully when you hear one of your scenarios ended in another TPK. It's really not necessary.

The secret that Nigel has kept forever, is that he ends up undead, and centuries from now reinvents himself as Zo!

The insisting on all characters on having a Home Region is creating an interesting ..... mess RAW. By this I mean the language that we refer to as Common.

If my leshy character is from Katapesh, then *my* Common is Katapesh, then I would *only* be able to speak with people who speak Katapesh or Sylvan. I would not be able to communicate with people who have Taldane as their "Common".

So in effect, we now have a Society of people who have a world full of languages that are all *their* Common.

That's a headache waiting to happen, when people start to assume that language X is Common when in fact it's Language Q.

Not spoiling this info (which we've been working on for MANY months) has been a test of my patience! I'm so relieved we've finally been able to announce it and we don't have to be all "Mmmm I dunno" when people keep asking for exactly what this book is focusing on. YAY! :-)

I love companies that listen to their customer base.

This is amazing!!

Playable Gnoll boon when? :D

This right here is the important question. This question should apply to both SFS and PFS.

Inquiring Minds Want to Know.

Okay, no one has said it, but I LOVE the fact that Qiu is (apparently) non-binary. A big deal wasn't made of it, just included as yet another fact.

Representation matters. That's one of the reasons I've always loved Pathfinder, they take strides to make sure that diversity is shown in a meaningful fashion. I can not tell you how pleased I am that the Iconic Paladin/Champion is a Black woman. The literal embodiment of good is a Black woman.

Representation matters. The fact that the Iconics are such a diverse group is a reason that I love this game.

The next step of course is to have a non-binary or perhaps even trans Iconic. HINT HINT PAIZO. Perhaps as one of the NEW classes, you're working on?

Thank you.

Because you admitted that these issues were addressed by staff previously but were primarily ignored or brushed aside, what steps will you be taking to stop that from happening again in the future?

THIS is the question that I want/need answered.

All right, working on my “Core 20” pantheon Cleric. He walks around with an armful of parchment spreadsheets full of edicts and anathemas, and takes half an hour to make any decision.

So you're making Chidi from The Good Place?

Need more of this.

Definitely need more Pathfinder Circus fiction. Perhaps a whole novel??
