Today I just bought my last issue of pathfinder softcover adventure path. I've bought product from you guys since the Dungeon and Dragon magazine days. Bought pathfinder AP #1 and today I just bought #221. I will be buying the hardcover APs as they come. As well as all the other Pathfinder stuff. Even though I moved to England in 2014 and had a harder time getting the product I remained faithful. Just wanted to say thanks guys for the decades of fun. Not sure if many will see this but it just feels good to say thanks and if you want a shelfie of it all just ask and I'll send it :)


Local group, please be double vaxxed (no discussion). PF first ed campaign my do second ed campaigns in future.


Sorry finances are way to tight right now. I will pick it up again when I can. )Please cancel all pending orders and subscriptions.


Please hold til the 25th of June.
Order 5203650


Please hold til after the 25th


Hold til the 25th please


Like I said above I changed the address on my subscription and it still shipped to my old address where I can't get it. AFTER I changed it on Paizo.com. I was wondering why it was taking so long.


New address in place. All moved in and ready for my subscriptions so go ahead.


Hold all my subscriptions til the 25th of November. Moving to a new town and the moving craziness has me all discombobulated. Will get you guys all the details and stuff updated for subscriptions ASAP.

It's all good to go on this end. Hope you guys aren't too stressed with GenCon season. Remember to breathe and take time for yourself in this busy period.


You can go ahead with this on June 15th and even the June subscription if it is ready.


Please hold until the 15th


Hold til the 15th of December please.


Please cancel my comics and miniatures subscritpions I will pick them back up when I can.


It says both shipped and payment method declined on my subscription page and no message for pending order and no option to retry the payment method. So I am thoroughly confused.


Awesome detail on the imp. I think Erik has taken advice well from folks I remember when the line first started and the suggestions given and he has taken them all to heart.


So I have been running wrath of the righteous and I have used the npc gallery that is on the inside covers. Basically what I did is hide all the pictures until you have met the important npc and leave blank space beside the npc to write their name and any important info the PCs learn about the NPC. I did both for villains and help PCs. This tactic has worked wonders. The players know all the npcs right off the bat and remember their names all the time by looking at the npc gallery stuck to my GM screen. I was wondering if Paizo could possibly offer a NPC gallery for all their APs like this one. It would be super helpful for GMs and I could see you guys making some money off of it too.


I like flaws. I kinda wish we could make a sourcebook to add flavor and contention in there. meaning how to run a game with these real world issues such as religious tension, gender issues, and prejudice societies. Basically a way to add into the campaign as something to majorly strive against. Maybe I'm just weird. But I like to muddy up my good and bad guys. Make things more morally ambiguous. For example I have been running Wrath of the Righteous. And I have run with these muddied conflicts. I play up the criminals be exiled to Mendev to serve in the crusade. I play up the inquisitions witch burnings and innocent people being tortured and killed. I play up the fact Mendev in my game is a mixed bag of good people who sometimes get it wrong. I love playing up them meeting a shell shocked veteran who is to mentally broken to fight anymore. Or the fact that the crusade hasn't been completely right. I make up facts about them accidentally slaughtering whole towns of Sarkorians purely by mistake thinking they are practicing demonology when really they were just ignorant of their cultural beliefs. I love to add tension between Mendevians and Sarkorian refugees. I do this because it makes things much more dire in my opinion. You have good guys getting it wrong whole good churches doing bad things because people are at the helm. I know this isn't for everyone. What do you guys think?


You can go ahead with it on the 15th and all will be good.


Please wait to ship this until the 15th. Bit tight on money this week I afraid.


Hey all Canadian now living in Bedfordshire looking for a regular gaming group or to start one. I am in the town of Potton near the Sandy rail station. I have a huge collection of miniatures Dwarven Forge terrain and of course various gaming rulebooks and resources.


1) the promo miniature is not on the order for some reason.
2) there used to be an option on my account to make sure 1 promo ships with every case but I can no longer find that option. :(


Everything seems in order except my Adventure Path #92 is missing from the email.


**Disclaimer** This is not a thread to debate this preference. This is a how too thread. So I respect your preference to not agree but this isn't the place to voice it.

So with that over with, I was planning on eliminating all the sci fi elements out of Golarion by playing up the clockwork angle. Add a bit of steam powered clockwork robots (very rare). I plan on turning androids into clockwork people with porcelain like facades. Play up Brigh in her more gearworks aspect. Eliminate all laser guns to primitive firearms level just like other areas of Golarion. Anyone have any other cool tips to add to this?


Unfortunately until finances pick up I need to make a sacrifice. But i will pick it up again in the future.


Many believe the attacks that started yesterday are related to the ISIS threat against Canada. None of that has been confirmed. So far:
2 Soldiers run down by man in truck in truck in Quebec
Shots fired on Parliament hill, while parliament was in session and the Prime Minister was present

It's so sad to see this happening in my home country :(


I realized I want to know what the miniatures involved will be first. Unlike paizo there has been very little previews involving the product in question.

I don't know what it is. I have a problem. I can't read pdfs. I have been a subscriber to pathfinder since the beginning, and I own all the pathfinder written material. Except the pdfs. I have a bunch of them available for download. And I have access to the pdf long before the written material arrives. And even though I am super excited, I just can't bring myself to really look at the pdfs because I hate it. I would rather lug a metric tonne of books around than one laptop. Even ipads are useless to me at games.
The most tragic part is I would love to support more 3pp companies. But guess what all those damnably stupid pdf releases ruin it for me. I have to have a book in my hands or it's just a no.
What is wrong with me. Am I just a technological luddite?
I don't even care how crowded my gaming shelf gets. I would rather have that than a full hard drive.......


Awesome more commoner minis and a leucrotta. Good preview.


I had some cool product ideas that may or may not seem cool to paizo folks but here goes.
1)Golarion globe.
Yes an actual globe. Where I know the full globe has not yet been developed this idea could work out in the future with an awesome artwork globe.

2)Deluxe world maps (Limited edition)
This is a fully deluxe item where you take a golarion region do a fully detailed out artistic flavored drawing and put it on a faux backing that rolls up in a scroll tube that is also artistically done.
Examples
a) Taldor- done in a european medieval style map drawing on faux pressed cloth backing into a detailed renaissance like scroll tube.
b) Osirian- done in an ancient egyptian theme illustration on faux pressed reed papyrus that rolls up into a suitably egyptian style scroll case
c) Land of the Linnorm kings- Done in a very viking esque mapping technigue on faux goat leather rolled up into a very scandinavian flavor scroll case.
d)(insert suitable Tian Xia nation here) done in semi authentic asian themed artword done on faux pressed bamboo slatted mat rolled up into an asian style scroll tube.

3) The book of the Damned (limited)
Basically a limited release that includes all 3 book of the damned series as well as suitable support articles about demons, plus demons revisited, some fiction written in as appropriate. Make a suitable artistically carry case that looks like stitched leather from various demonic and humanoid sources, where the hardcover and artistic prints will sit inside.

These are just a few ideas I had mulling around my head. I know they may be stupid but I think they would sell.


Whats the deal guys. The minis preview is one of the highlights of the entire weeks worth of blog. How about we bump some other stuff and give us another minis preview mid week to make up for it?


I feel no better for the death of this vile man. Though he has passed away his legacy of disgusting behavior continues. This man who protested the funerals murdered LGBT victims. This man who had no regard for the grief mothers who lost sons to war. This man who he and his vile church held signs thanking God for IEDs and with a megaphone proclaimed that God sent your children back dead for not executing all the f~@&!@s. This man who lead a church of hate and his legacy will only be pain, hatred, and bigotry. I will not celebrate your death Fred Phelps, because there is nothing to celebrate. I can only hope you died alone shunned by those you love as the news seems to portend.

Just wanted to give a shout out to you guys and gals. August was a hard month for you, Gencon was hectic as usual and the August orders were really long and hard work to get out. I know you Customer Service crew took a beating from undeserved tongue lashings, and tireless work, and you warehouse crew worked extra hours to get stuff out the door. So I will try and be at Paizocon 2014 and I owe all of you a round of drinks. And I hope you all know despite the inordinate amount of complaining you had to deal with this month you are appreciated.


I plan to start a list like I have in previous threads to show what has and has not been produced. I will start with all 3 Bestiaries, and work my way through every Paizo product. I will set links beside every single entry with a link to the paizo singles store with a picture of the miniature in question whether produced by DDM or Wizkids or another company. I will only include Pre-painted plastic minis. I will even include close facsimile creatures. I will do all this mostly for selfish reasons, if Erik knows what is out there then the stuff that isn't will get produced and as an avid collector I will get what I want eventually.

Example:
Bulette- DDM Huge size mini Giants of Legend DDM Mini Large size Dungeons of Dead


If you guys want to see a new cool take on the zombie genre check out this new british series.
Brief synopsis. 4 years after the rising, everything is under control. The zombies are referred as PDS sufferers (Previously Deceased Syndrome). And they can now be treated to remember their past lives. They are processed through treatment facilities and when ready they are sent back to society for "Reintigration" along with a makeup kit and contact lenses to better fit in and daily medication. The series follows Kieran Walker who died in 2009. Kieran killed himself after his best friend Rick dies in Afghanistan via IED. He is sent back to his family after treatment and struggles to live in a town very much set against the undead and unwilling for reintigration to happen. Really cool and definitely worth a look.


With Shattered Star releasing in January we should be hearing what the next Pathfinder Battles set will be.
I'm not expecting to get an announcement here, just an idea when and if said announcement will happen. Come on guys throw us a bone :P


Sorry for the inconvenience guys. All should be good to process and ship order # 2307870


Woot finally a cool demilich mini!!!!!!


And this is why they call me The Minis Maniac.
If you look at the merged room photo, that blue shelf case is completely full of DDMs as well as the large tupperwares beside it, as well as the container on top of the tupperware. And as well as a couple office bos beside the case. I know I have a problem but I just can't stop myself :P


Woot hill giant!! DDM did a few Hill giants in their run but when it came to giants it just never seemed like enough. And Amiri looks great.


I was wondering if you could this one time send my $1800 minis order via UPS. I will pay the shipping I just want the minis to arrive for my birthday on the 31st. Since I am going to be alone on my birthday with my spouse away at a conference this would make almost all better.
I know it would complicate things a bit that I'm in Canada, but not really that far away in Canada. So let me know.


I was looking forward to the first preview of Shattered Star Minis for today. Is that still happening?


Let's face it, gnomes are the least popular PC race and for good reason. Let's choose to just drop them come Pathfinder 2.0 and use a new innovative PC race that is Pathfinder exclusive. I think that would be the best solution.


They are super helpful minis line for roleplaying. So far I think they just have one set but it I love it already.

Harrow Casting:

You draw a card from your harrow deck just before you cast a spell to infuse your magic with its destined potential. If your next action is to Cast a Spell, the suit of the card you draw enhances the spell in one of the following ways. If the card you draw matches the suit of your active harrow omen, the effect is enhanced further as detailed below. When you Harrow Cast, attempt a DC 11 flat check. If you fail this check, you lose your active harrow omen at the end of your turn.

Hammers: The force of the spell is enhanced. This effect only enhances single-target offensive spells that require you to make a successful spell attack or require a saving throw from the target to resist. If you hit the target, or if they fail their saving throw, the spell inflicts additional force damage equal to the spell’s level. This additional damage doubles if your harrow omen is Hammers.

Keys: Some of the magic remains behind, infusing your defenses. Until the start of your next turn, you gain a +1 status bonus to your AC and all saving throws. If your harrow omen is Keys, this increases to a +2 status bonus.

Shield As the spell’s magic takes effect, it heals you as well, restoring Hit Points equal to 2d6 + the spell’s level. If your harrow omen is Shields, the Hit Points restored increases to 4d6 + twice the spell’s level.

Books: The spell’s magic infuses your mind with sudden insights about the target. You can attempt to Recall Knowledge about the target as a free action, using your spell attack roll to make the check. You gain a +2 status bonus to this roll if Books is your harrow omen.

Stars: The spell’s magic bolsters those it aids. This effect only enhances single-target spells cast on willing subjects. The magic restores Hit Points to the affected target equal to 2d6 + the spell’s level. If your harrow omen is Stars, the magic also grants the target a +2 status bonus to all saving throws until the start of your next turn.

Crowns: The spell’s magic is hidden and subtle, and observers may not realize you’re doing anything more than manipulating cards in your harrow deck. Attempt a Fortune‑Telling Lore check against all observer’s Perception DCs. If your check is successful against an observer’s Perception DC, that observer doesn’t notice you are Casting a Spell, even though normally spells have sensory manifestations. This hides only the spell’s spellcasting actions and manifestations, not its effects. If your harrow omen is Crowns, you gain a +2 status bonus to your Fortune-Telling Lore check.

Background:

Dimitrie's life is a tapestry of mysticism, tradition, and personal struggle. Born in the culturally rich Varisian landscape, he inherited the arcane in his blood before he even drew his first breath. The absence of a father cast a lingering shadow, but in the warmth of his mother's love and the wisdom of his grandmother, he found solace and guidance.

As a child, he was eerily comfortable around the Harrow cards that his grandmother often used for divination. Under her tutelage, Dimitrie displayed an intuitive understanding of the cards and their meaning. His grandmother's reputation in their community as a skilled Harrow reader made her an enigmatic figure in his life, shaping his own views on the arcane and mysticism.

His mother, meanwhile, delved into the lore of ancient Thassilon, filling their home with scrolls and tomes that would become the bedrock of his scholarly pursuits. Dimitrie was inquisitive, hungry for knowledge, and these ancient texts fed his imagination. His questions were incessant, ranging from the traditions of Varisian folklore to the complexities of arcane magic. It was clear that he was not just resourceful but also deeply cultured, shaped by the mixed heritage and knowledge passed down through generations.

When Dimitrie came of age, it was inevitable that he would venture beyond the safe cocoon of family and tradition. Perhaps it was youthful impatience, or maybe stubborn self-assurance, but when a group of adventurers caught wind of his unique skills, he left without looking back. The blend of his inherited intuition and self-taught knowledge made him a formidable sorcerer. While he was an expert in arcane magics, he showed exceptional mastery over occult magic—a rare combination that further enhanced his reputation.

As the years went by, the thrill of new challenges only intensified his natural overconfidence. Even as he collected arcane secrets and enhanced his magical prowess, he often found himself plunging into situations he hadn't fully considered. His instincts usually bailed him out, but it was clear that his impulsive tendencies were both an asset and a flaw.

Then there was the perpetual weight of legacy and expectation that accompanied him. His grandmother's reputation, the gaps in his family history, and the very real runes etched onto his flesh—a silent testimony to his connection with the ancient powers of Thassilon. As he ventured deeper into the labyrinthine complexity of arcane and occult magic, the same runes appeared to grow more vibrant, as if in response to his evolving power and understanding.

Now 25 and an experienced adventurer, Dimitrie finds himself at a crossroads. The breadth of his experiences has filled him with rich knowledge but has also shown him how much he still has to learn. The boy who once found wonder in a deck of Harrow cards has become a man grappling with the duality of his nature—drawn to both the arcane and the occult, rooted in family legacy yet eager to forge his own path.

In a way, the Harrow cards that once fascinated him so much are a metaphor for his own life: full of symbols and meanings, dealt by fate but interpreted by choice.


Description:

Dimitrie embodies a blend of his Varisian roots and the arcane prowess signified by his runescarred flesh.
He stands at an average height with a lean, agile build that belies his enduring constitution. His skin is slightly tanned from years of travel and outdoor adventure, a canvas marred and beautified by the intricate Thassilonian runes that adorn his arms, chest, and back. These runes glow faintly with arcane energy, especially when he's in the thick of spellcasting or emotionally charged moments, illuminating the arcane symbols in a spectral dance of light.

His brown hair, sun-kissed at the tips from long days on the road, is kept at a medium length, falling slightly over his forehead and framing his sharp, inquisitive eyes. A thin beard traces his jawline, kept neat and groomed in adherence to Varisian tradition. His eyes are a deep brown, almost mirroring the earth itself, carrying a spark of restless intelligence and insatiable curiosity.

His clothes reflect his Varisian heritage—vivid, colorful, and intricately designed. A long, flowing scarf with traditional Varisian patterns is often draped around his neck or shoulders, an emblem of his culture and a nod to his grandmother, who wore something similar in her time. His shirt is loose and airy, embroidered with symbols that resonate with his magical lineage. Completing the ensemble, he often wears a light cloak fastened with a clasp shaped like a Harrow card, paying homage to his harrowing abilities and the legacy of his family. His nimble fingers are occasionally seen toying with a deck of Harrow cards or tracing over the Thassilonian runes on his skin, a tactile focus for his ceaseless thoughts.
