This may seem rather simplistic, but I would like to see more adventures set in Absalom. Perhaps as part of a hardcover that revisits and expands the details gleaned from the Absalom paperback...

I don't know if there will be anyplace to send condolences at this time, but I will post as soon as I find out.

In the meantime, I would like to throw out a quick memory of Jon.

This came at the climax of Krome's Carrion Crown campaign, and we were fighting the main villain.

He saved the day, and survived the encounter.

Good times.

I understand that you are upset with this person, but from the stance of the Pathfinder Society, wherein the goal is to grow the society at any reasonable opportunity, it would be outside of the spirit of Pathfinder Society to prevent a player from playing for personal reasons. You have the right to not sit at that player's table, but if that player hasn't broken any of the rules of Pathfinder Society you will have no grounds by which to ban said player.

And you may find that if this person is actively trying to get under your skin, simply ignoring his antics may be the best way to defeat him.

Looks to me like its gonna be the best Bestiary yet!

2) Wish we had Pathfinder Society around here

I once thought the same thing about where I live. So, I started some Pathfinder Society, and it got HUGE in no time!

If you don't have it where you are, start it up!

Some of the more common "the prisoner turns out to be..." examples are:

somebody important (like a prince or princess)
a doppleganger
an assassin, captured on his way to a big hit
a crazy old man who happens to know where X dungeon is
a normally evil monster that turns out to be good

Maybe one of these will spur your imagination...

If you are thinking of playing a rouge or a bard, I would choose the bard. The rouge tends to leave players red-faced.

I would have the local mayor grant them the farm in exchange for a favor. BAM! Instant plot hook.

You guys totally deserve it for making the best game in the world. You have my sincere thanks and the thanks of thousands of gamers worldwide.

Rock on!

So... how does one get more GM stars? Is it just a matter of running scenarios or is there more to it than that?

I got mine for doing well on my speling tests...

(and maybe running a game or two.)

Since its inception, Paizocon has set the standard of what makes a good con.

As always, I had a blast this year. It is sometimes difficult to run several games and visit with everyone you want, but Paizocon makes this much easier.

The people at Paizo certainly do "get it." That's what makes them the best!

I very much enjoyed getting to meet and roll some bones with Painlord and Kyle Baird this year--very cool guys!

It would be impossible to thank everyone who makes Paizocon great without having a ten page post, so thanks to you, (insert your name here if you work for Paizo, been to Paizocon, or support Paizo in any way!)

Already excited about 2012!!

Wow! Wish I could throw my 9th level Cleric / Fighter in there--but I'm running another game. I would love to get "slaughtered*" by Dragonmoon!

13. Random, harmless woodland creatures wander into the dungeon behind the party. Play up the clomp of hooves on stone, and as the party buffs itself and sets up its ambush, enter a very lost deer.

Then, after the party has breathed a sigh of relief and let their guard down, have the half fiend lost deer attack relentlessly.

I have had the pleasure of spreading the word of Pathfinder throughout mid-Missouri, and from the number of players that I am seeing on a weekly basis, I think the Pathfinder Society games in all of Missouri could grow immensely with only a bit of organization. I would like this thread to be the place where all Missouri Pathfinders can post where and when games in our area will occur.

Also, I am putting my contact information here as well. If you are interested in getting in on Pathfinder Society games but don't know how or where to find them, please email me at pathfinderjtroeder@yahoo.com and I will do my best to help you find or start a game.

The first Saturday of every month is the PFS Smackdown at Valhalla's Gate gaming store in Columbia, MO. We typically have 3-5 tables going every time we meet, and there is still plenty of room for new players. If you are interested, come on out! The next one will be Saturday, November 6th from 7 p.m. until midnight. We have a lot of great gamers there that come from as far away as St. Louis, Springfield, and even Wichita, KS! If you are interested in coming but can't find a ride to the game, contact me at the above email and I will see if I can find you one.

Hope to see lots and lots of new Pathfinders there!

If your party is unable to maintain order in Westcrown, then the Order of the Scourge will enter the city and resume control. That is all.

Anything by Italo Calvino, Umberto Eco, or Jorge Luis Borges. Invisible Cities by Calvino is amazing.

Also, when people get a little older, they begin to realize that Mark Twain really was THAT GOOD. I always hated his stuff when I was in High School and college. I would wonder why teachers felt compelled to force students to read his work. Then, when I was really bored last summer, I picked up Huck Finn. Yep, there's something in there that can resonate with anyone.

I also like Graham Greene. Brighton Rock is good, but The Quiet American is better.

Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow is fantastic if you can get through it. It is worth the effort. In the same vein is House of Leaves, by Mark Z. Danielewski. Despite being "newer" books, they are already being included in the required reading for many Graduate programs.

Other: The Greyhawk gods are pretty crappy compared to FR gods.

I was having this discussion only yesterday with one of the other members of my gaming group. He has only been playing for about 7 or 8 years, and his primary argument was that Lolth was WAY cooler than anything in Greyhawk. When I pulled out my old handy Queen of Spiders, he acquiesced that maybe the Greyhawk gods ARE better.
