Will we see Brett's Elicia Stormraven in this Codex?
Is there a landscape version of this cover? I would love to have it as a Wallpaper for my computer.
Sold.
I think for many, this book seems a little late coming. So many of us have moved on from Core and would like future releases to include all options currently available.
It'll still be an excellent resource.
Looking forward to NPC Codex II!
The more I hear about this book the more I'm looking forward to it.
Oh man...so many wants....Speaking of that cover, I still want to buy a clean/textless print of this one.I've got my fingers crossed that this wraps around onto the back cover.
It should wrap around to the back side. If you buy the PDF, you can save the page its on to use for your computer wallpaper or something. I have a spread photo from Carrion Crown as my wallpaper currently :)
*disappointed face* but it looked like such an epic and a classic.

Who?
It is! The fact that it's just as big as you see it doesn't make it any less so! It's so awesome that we actually ended up putting all of those characters into the book.
I know this is still epic in proportion, I have always been a fan of the tavern scene. Just because it's not landscape doesn't mean I think badly of it.
I think that it is a great cover and I am happy to know I should have it around Christmas.

This being in the world-neutral line, any NPCs from Golarion are highly unlikely.

How are they gonna make it world-neutral with divine-based NPC's in this manual? I mean, a cleric has to have a deity in order to have specific domains yes?

Deities are featured in the Core Rulebook. These deities may have a place in the Pathfinder campaign setting as well, but the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and the products specific to that line of products (Core Rulebook, Advanced Player's Guide, etc.) are considered to be setting-neutral. You'll note that there's no setting-specific fluff related to the deities in the Core Rulebook. In fact, the word "Golarion" is mentioned once in the entire book, in Apendix 4: Game Aids, specifically in the paragraph concerning the Pathfinder Campaign Setting line of products.
I also thought that the deities in the core rule book were given as examples and that each GM setting might or might not have thoose deities available.
The book will include deities for appropriate characters, the PRD will not (because the deity names aren't Open content), but by looking at a character's alignment, description, and domains in the PRD, I'm sure you can figure out which deity he or she worships.

I have no idea what you are talking about.
The Thornkeep PDF references the NPC Codex for an enemy in one of the dungeons, and I have 3 weeks to wait to see what the stats are on it.
Life is so unfair.

Any chance we might get a title-less copy of the pic for a background on my ipod or tablet?
NPC Codex 2...The Larger World? Including NPCs from different lands? Arcadia to Tian Xia?
This codex, and any further in this product line, are going to be world neutral (with the exception of deity names, I think). Typically they keep the hardcover rulebooks world neutral so people who don't play in Golarion can get the most out of them.
Lets go to Tian Xia!

Yep. I'd honestly expect plenty of NPCs in this setting neutral book to have that sort of RL regional flavor already. I doubt the cultural flavor is going to be confined to ISR-ish cultures alone(and to be honest, the ISR has a wide cultural range already, it's not just Avistan all the time!)
Anyone know the name of the halfling sitting between the bars of the railing on the left-center part of the cover?
Are all of the NPCs in the book straight-classed or are there some multiclassed examples available?
The prestige class characters are multiclassed, but the others are all single-classed.
I can hardly wait for this book. It will be such a great help in the DL Pathfinder game I am running.

Rather, the halfling sitting in the railing on the right-center of the cover that is... xD
I want this for reasons...
The book is pretty much fantastic. Tons of dwarves, halflings, elves, and I really enjoy that the stat blocks themselves don't dip into any-- that I saw-- archetypes. It's really cut and dry and excellent. Will be of great use!
Another thing I really liked was that, for everything except for the fighter, who was odd, every 20th level NPC bought right into the character you'd imagine they'd be. There's no weird concept 20th level characters-- even the fighter, who is odd, is a two-handed fighter with some miscellaneous feats and options.
Any of the Iconics officially "outed" by this book?

Seconded.
If I buy hardcover do I get the pdf included? I could swear that is the case from other books that I bought but its not clear.
