How do you feel about Fallout 4 having finally been confirmed?

So... do we get an Aroden deity article in Song of Silver? With obediences, described planar servants and the like? Or is it just theories about his death?

Also, only following Paizocon from a country away, is the announced Hell's Vengeance adventure path going to draw inspiration from the Way of the Wicked? Because that's the first thing I thought of upon reading it's an evil adventure path with Hell inspiration.

How do the Aboleth see Mengkare's "utopia"? I ask because it looks like he's doing EXACTLY the same thing they did with Azlant, breeding and uplifting humans, except openly and more "benevolently".

How would Mengkare react if he realized someone else already tried what he's doing... and that it failed spectacularly?

Also, why did Aboleth select humans for their experimentation instead of say, goblins or other primitive creatures? What were the parameters that led them to this choice?

Hello, I have got quite a few questions.

Was Abraxas' cult developed in Azlant and Thassilion? How did he and Lissala get along, considering their focus on snakes and magic?

How do Nethys and Abraxas see one another?

Between Nurgal, Zura, and quite a few others, it seemed demon lord worship was quite popular in Azlant. Was it another Aboleth experiment? Or just the result of Azlant's decay and hubris?

Who do you think are the most likely current owners of the book of the damned's different parts in Pathfinder's universe? I get the feeling Abraxas probably has the demon copy and Asmodeus/Charon the others, but I would like to know your opinion on it.

It is possible to get a Qlippoth familiar if one is chaotic evil in Pathfinder, and one loyal. Considering Qlippoth are, well, genocidal, why would one willingly serve a mortal?

Which region/country of Golarion would you like to develop the most in the future?

If you saw it, what was your opinion on Fury Road?

How do Qlippoth react to worshipers of Rovagug? Do those worshipers get a charisma penalty when trying to bind them like everyone else, or can they recruit Qlippoth like worshipers of Asmodeus or Lamashtu recruit devils and demons?

It is mentioned in the book of the damned Pazuzu is recruiting allies, including from other plans like Hell and Abaddon, to fight Lamastu. We already know many of Lamashtu's allies (like Baphomet, the goblin hero gods, and quite a few nascent demon lords), but which are the big supporters of Pazuzu?

Hello,

I have noticed Lamashtu's deific obedience and the associated powers are different from her demonic obedience.

So, does it mean it is legal for a (probably fanatical) worshiper of Lamashtu to get both obedience and the benefit of both? Would he have to do both rituals each day to maintain them, or simply one is enough?

Also, I would like to ask, considering Nocticula and Desna both got away with killing demon lords, why didn't Lamashtu destroy Pazuzu personally? What is her plan to get rid of him (and vice versa)?

That's an unfortunate error that crept in; they SHOULD have been the same, but the fact that they ended up different is fine. A strict reading of the rules implies that, yes, you could get both Deific Obedience AND Demonic Obediance... but common sense would and should say otherwise. Let your GM make that call. If I were your GM I'd let you pick one or the other but not both.

The fact that Lamashtu hasn't slain Pazuzu yet is because of a reason that isn't yet revealed. A reason DOES exist and I've dropped hints on the reason here and there, and there IS something that it's building toward, but I'm not ready yet to reveal all of that.

Thank you for your answers.

Ah, I see. Without spoiling, does it have anything to do with the Misbegotten Prince and both demon lords' interest in Varisia and Sandpoint?

Also, I had forgotten to ask two questions: I've been trying to create a custom bad guy for an adventure, and I was wondered, can an antipaladin worship (and draw power from) the Abyss itself or does it have to worship a deity/demon lord in order to get powers?

And finally, can someone have both a Lilitu's profane pact and a succubus' profane gift at the same time? I ask because the Lilitu's definition says it works like a profane gift except for a few things, and both abilities are pretty similar.

Thank you for your answers.

Why haven't you tried to publish some of your unpublished work? Do you even intend to publish some of them one day?

If you were to give an antipaladin code for Nocticula what would be the main tenets?

How do Demodands and Qlippoth see one another? Do the latter hate them just as much as demons or do they simply ignore them?

If a mythic character dies and is turned into an outsider, does he becomes a mythic version of that same outsider? Or does he becomes a completely unique being like an empyreal lord or something?

Finally, speaking of Way of the Wicked, may I ask where are with the story? I've purchased it and it looks quite fun.

First post on this forum ever.

First of all, I would like to thank you Mr Jacobs, because reading the Pathfinder adventure paths got me into tabletop RPG and caused me to subscribe to this site. After buying and reading some of the setting's books, I'm really glad I did.

I've got a few questions for roleplay/lore after reading various books. Please pardon me if they have been answered already (considering the length of this thread I believe it would take me weeks to find them).

1) how does Pharasma view the Rakshasas and their reincarnations? Do their fiendish reincarnation means they avoid judgement until the mechanism is disrupted?

2) do Elder Gods like Nodens exist in the Pathfinder universe? Are there for example cults devoted to Nodens on Golarion? And if so, how does Desna view them, since they both oppose Great Old Ones and Outer Gods?

3) how do (in general) outsiders view sorcerers with their blood and who achieved their capstone, aka becoming such an outsider in all but name? For example, would devils see a 20th level Infernal Sorcerer as a fellow spawn of hell and be relatively well-disposed toward him/her?

4) since Qlippoths want demons gone, do some of them recruit, assist or supply mortals with an interest in demon slaying? Whoever is the victor, it would be a win for them.

5) you said Pharasma was the oldest entity in the great beyond, so does this mean she was always the judge of the dead? Or did she simply propose the current system and was chosen for the role?

6) hypothetically, if Pharasma were to be "killed" what would be the consequences for the setting? Would someone be selected by the other gods to replace her? Or can she even be killed at all?
