Can you interact with another ship whilst in drift space?
I have an idea for my players to come across a ship apparently adrift in drift space.


If you look at this a different way then it can work (clerics getting spells without gods), Imagine a universe where there are Universal Concepts such as Good, Evil, Law, Chaos, etc (ie: the Domains) and these concepts are sources of power for divine classes.
In this case then the gods are now more like Catholic Saints in that they best embody a lifestyle that Exults the concepts and have been raised to a higher plane as result of it.
Therefore a cleric of Iomedae Isn't drawing power from her, but by following her life and teachings attempts to become a divine being like her, all the while being aware that she is a guide to power not the power itself.


I was wondering if anyone has done a Conversion for the Blue Rose RPG(produced by Green Ronin) specifically for the races: Vata-an, Vata-sha, Night-Folk & Rhy Creatures?

I guess you could base the Vata on Half-elfs, and the Night-folk on half-elfs, but i have no idea on how to stat the Rhy-creatures (esp. the Rhy Cats)

Any help would be appreciated.


I don't believe that a low charisma can be looked at by its self, it should be seen in conjunction with the other mental stats

Low Cha, High Int, Avg Wis = Your Classic Nerd, gifted but lacking in socisl skills

Low Cha, Avr Int, High Wis = The person you should be paying attention to but don't, because they cannot get people to follow their ideas.

Low Cha, Avr Int, Avr Wis = The wallflower, they ust blend into the background.

Low Cha, Low Int, Avr Wis = People ignore then because they rarely say anything of importance, always making dumb statements.

Low Cha, Avr Int , Low Wis = Only opens their mouth to change feet.

Low Cha, Low Int, Low Wis = Always making cringeworth Faux-pas, never realises that their doing it, never understands why their being critisided for it.


We have 4 kingdoms (3 for the PCs and 1 for the GM)

Kingdom: Valorius
Capital City: Bastion (formerly Olev's Trading Post)
Alignment: LG
Ruler:Lord General Shannor (Human 8th level Paladin of Iomedae)
Major Building: Cathedral of Purity (dedicated to the worship of all good gods)

Kingdom: Stagholme
Capital City: Not yet named (formerly Staglords fort)
Alignment: CG
Ruler: Staglord Hajik (Half-orc 8th level Sorcerer)
Major Building: Arena of Strength

Kingdom: Forestgate
Capital City: Not yet named (formerly Temple of Erastil)
Alignment: CN
Ruler: Baroness Mira (Half-elf 8th level Fighter)
Major Building: Parks

The last kingdom was put together by the GM, as a bit of fun and to be involved in the building phase.

Kingdom: Cesspit
Capital City: Necromart
Alignment:CE
Ruler: Grand Necromancer Baron Samedi (GM 8th level Halfling Bard)
Major Building: Graveyard (soon to be Casters Tower)


We started using them last session and had the most fun we've had in a long time, its was totally anarchic madness.
We decided to give everyone (GM included) 1 card, and they can play it at anytime, even if it's not there turn, and you get another card whenever you play it also when you roll a natural 20.
A simple encounter against 3 livardfolk went for 80 minutes and we had a ball.
They reminded us of the Encounter cards for Mayfair games (or Westend?), as well as the cards in TORG.


Our group is playing Kingmaker with only 3 PCs, we have a
Half-Orc Sorcerer (abyssal bloodline)
Half-Elf Fighter
Human Paladin
and are not having any problems.
We are 2/3 of the way through book 1.


We've only been playing Kingmaker for a few weeks and have just hit third level, we have three players.

Micah CG Half-elf fighter, she was raised by Elves but forced to leave after her Mother died as the tribe didn't care for Half-breeds, she then was adopted by an old human who trained her as a fighter,she is very implusive.

Harik CN Half-orc sorcerer (abyssal bloodline) he hasn't revealed much of his background yet except he carries his father's skull as a drinking flask (more on this later), actually quiet short (5'5") for a half-orc.

Karoth NG Human cleric of Sarenrae, when he was born he had a birthmark similar to Sarenrae's Holy symbol so he was given to the local temple to raise, he tends to be fairly committed but a little nieve.

Early in the first adventure we found out that all three PCs had the same father Elma the unfaithful who apparently had been wandering throughout golarion fathering children for years until he was killed by Harik's mother after she caught him with a younger orc female.
It provides a different reason for the party to stay together.


Im like the randomness of rolling for healing effect, if my character (Human Cleric of Sarenrae) were to roll all ones then he'd see it as a message from his goddess, maybe he hasn't been devout enough? maybe she's testing him?
If he were to Roll all sixes then he'd see it as his goddess being pleased with him.
Its all part of the Roleplaying experience.


Our group 3 plus GM, have only recently started playing Pathfinder (although we have played both 3.5 & 4ed previously), and we have
All Level 3,we are playing the Kingmaker adventure path.

Micah-CN Female Half-Elf Fighter (age 22), she tends to focus on mobility rather then heavy armour, she was raised in a Elven village but left as prejudice against her human blood began to occur.

Hagik- CN Half-Orc Sorcerer Abyssal bloodline (age 18), carries a Falchion , and hasn't revealed much about himself.

Karoth- NG Human Cleric of Sarenrae (domains Good & Glory) (age 20), has a birthmark resembling the goddess and was raised in the temple so he doesn't know much about the outside world, tries to encourage the other party members to become at least CG.

An oddity about our party is that we are all related, having the same father (emel the unfaithful), who visited an elven village 23 years ago but left soon after Micah's birth, the wandered into Karoth's village a couple of years later but only stayed a few nights, and was captured by a tribe of Orcs a few years later and one of the females there decided to keep him as a pet, until his roving eye set upon a youngr female, so she killed him, Hagik has his skull which was made into a goblet.
This was how we realised we were related as we all knew small amounts of info about our father (including his name) and when Hagik pulled out the Goblet with his name scratched on it in Orcish it all came together.
