let me just say that I love Pathfinder's homage to ancient Egypt, and I enjoy the campaign setting's history. I'm workin on an adventure with various Osirion themes, and as I result I was going through the various osirion adventures and supplements for notes.

In the Osirion Player's Companion, there is a mention of a 'Mendes Dynasty' on page 13.

My question is, is this a typo? Is the name supposes to be 'Menedes Dynasty', the last native dynasty of osirion prior to Kelesh rule? Or is Mendes simply the popular name for the Menedes line of pharaohs?

i know this seems like a minor question, but it's something I found myself wondering about.

Ranger and Druid use Divine Magic which is not from gods.

Are they suppressed in Rahadoum?

Well, the background of the Oracle Archetype has her being born in Rahadoum and oracles use divine magic as well.

I believe that druids and rangers are allowed (along with oracles) as they are not tied to the propagation of a certain faith.

Of course, if they travel through Rahadoum wearing a holy symbol openly and preaching about the glory of (insert god's name here), then there would be an issue.


Okay, I have a fondness for aasimar and tieflings in the Pathfinder games I run, and I even had a half-genie (ifrit to be precise) in a few sessions I've run. However, most of these half-outsiders fall under either the good-aligned, evil-aligned, or elemntal types. Of course, i know such a character wouldn't necessarrilly be 'half-outsider' but they'd have some neutral outsider blood in them (similar to the many half-elves that might only be a half-eld because their great great grandfather happened to be an elf).

My question here is if there are plans to create another half-outsider race that's aimed at the neutral outsiders. While I was impressed by the unusual Aeons in Bestiary 2, my big interest came after the write-up for the psychopomps during the Carrion Crown adventure path. I absolutely loved them, and while the known psychopomps are alien enough that they aren't likely to be able to breed with a humanoid race, I'd still like to have the potential to have a half-psychopomp character in the game.

Has anyone else thought about this possibility? Has any one else tried coming up with rules for them?
