+1 in hoping for more Oracle curses.
And I hope that there will be a way for an Oracle to mix mysteries, or at least to poach one revelation from another mystery. Maybe via feats (similar to Eldritch Heritage) or an archetype (similar to the Crossblooded archetype for Sorcerers in UM).
And new mysteries are always welcome. Maybe one for love/lust/fertility? I'm sure that that would be popular with the Calistrians! :)

He *can* be those alignments, but he's not just a warpriest of Gorum, he's THE warpriest of Gorum. I don't thing Paizo would make him anything other then CN.
I could be wrong!
Imrijka is the Inquisitor of N Pharasma, and yet she's NG. Divine spellcasters not being their deity's alignment is rare, and mostly for PCs, but in many ways the Iconics are sample PCs, so having them do so makes sense.
I'd still bet he's CN, but there's no proof of it.

Two CN worshipers of Gorum who use big ass sword, what are the chances? ( the other being Amiri)

Do you people want some spoilers from the ACG and at the same time do some good?
Have you noticed this from the Blog?
====================================
I can truly say that the team was astounded when you helped us raise over $2000 in a single day for The Gauntlet charity tournament event coming up on May 18th. With that, we have earned a number of "power ups" that are going to help us in the tournament to claim The Gauntlet. Alas, the fight is not over yet!
In the past few days, we've seen our competition enter the fray, getting a mountain of donations. One in particular, has surged past us! While we commend them for helping to raise money for Child's Play, we still want to beat them and show that Paizo fans are some of the most awesome and charitable fans in the world!
To that end, we've decided to announce some special goals, to help raise some more money for this event! If we raise the following totals, we will unlock the goals and give everyone some awesome rewards! Check out these exciting funding goals!
- $3,000—Caveman Reward: In honor of Ugg-tect, one of the games we will be playing in which the participants are caveman architects, we will put together a free PDF of a "caveman" humanoid race for use in your Pathfinder games.
- $4,000—Card Game Reward: We will release a PDF featuring the Gauntlet team members as new Ally cards compatible with the Pathfinder Adventure Card Game.
- $5,000—Audio Reward: We will put together a "dramatic reading" of a chapter from one of our Pathfinder Tales novels, featuring members of the Paizo staff as the characters.
In addition to these great rewards, at $2,500, $3,500 and every $1,000 dollars thereafter I will post up some tantalizing spoilers from the upcoming Advanced Class Guide right here in the thread associated with this blog post! Expect to see those shortly after we reach each goal. The bigger rewards will take a little bit of time for us to put together (especially the Audio Reward), but you should expect them in the coming weeks.
The Gauntlet event is this Sunday, May 18th, starting at around 3pm PST. We've learned you will be able to watch the event live on Twitch.tv and take part in some truly awesome auctions during the event. We hope that you tune in and cheer us on through the chat and social media. Thanks again for donating and proving that Paizo has some of the best fans in the world!
Click here to donate and make sure to put "For Paizo" in the comment line so that your donation goes to our team!
===========================================================
Here is a link to Jason's post in the Blog The Fight for the Gauntlet Rages On!
We hit the $2,500 goal! As promised, here are a couple of spoilers from the upcoming Advanced Class Guide
- The Arcanist received a number of cool new exploits not seen in the play test. Here is one of them. Quick Study (Ex): The arcanist can prepare a spell in place of an existing spell by expending one point from her arcane reservoir. Using this ability is a full-round action that provokes an attack of opportunity. The arcanist must be able to reference her spellbook when using this ability. The spell prepared must be of the same level as the spell being replaced.
- The Shaman had a number of hexes added to the class that can be selected by all shamans (not just those with a particular spirit). Check out this fun hex. Shapeshift (Su): The shaman transforms herself into another form for a number of minutes per day equal to her level, as alter self. This duration does not need to be consecutive, but it must be spent in 1-minute increments. Changing form (including changing back) is a standard action that doesn’t provoke an attack of opportunity. At 8th level, this ability works as beast shape I. At 12th level, this ability works as beast shape II. At 16th level, this ability works as beast shape III. At 20th level, this ability works as beast shape IV.
- In addition to the new classes in the book, there are also new archetypes for each of the existing classes in the game. For example, the Rogue has a new archetype called the Counterfeit Mage, which has this fun ability. Signature Wand (Ex): At 4th level, a counterfeit mage can spend 1 hour practicing with a wand to designate it as his signature wand. He can draw that wand as a free action, and can activate it without having to succeed at a Use Magic Device check. He can change his signature wand once per day. This ability replaces the rogue talent gained at 4th level.
Well that about wraps up the spoilers for this reward tier. Check back in for more when we reach $3,500 and keep an eye out for our other goals too (closing in on the $3,000 goal right now).
And again, thanks for helping out the Paizo team in the Gauntlet and donating to this worthy cause.

The money goes to Charity aimed to help children, but it also helps Paizo winning the completion and getting the Gauntlet.
Steve has also promised to punch Jason in the face with the gauntlet and put it on Youtube if they win.
And giving to charity is tax deductible in the US right?
Paizo are currently at $ 2865. If we all chime in it won’t be hard to reach $ 3 500 or even beat Paizo’s competition “Removed from Play!” Removed from Play are currently at $ 3 554.
C’mon. It can be that hard. If we all help out we can do this.
At 5,000 we get an Audio Reward. That would be hilarious!
If we beat $ 3 554:
- we help children.
- we help Paizo win the contest.
- we get to see Steve to punch Jason in the face with the gauntlet on Youtube
- we get new Advanced glass Guide spoilers.
- We get a free PDF of a "caveman" humanoid race for Pathfinder
- And it is probably tax deductible if you live in the US, right? Not that is should matter :) I live in Sweden and can’t deduct it from my tax.
We can do this: FOR THE CHILDREN! And all the other stuff :)

They still have to win the tournament to get the gauntlet too don't they? I thought the fundraising got them "power ups" to use in the games while they attempt to win the gauntlet.
But yes. Punch Bulmahn, help children. Seems like a win win* :P
*Sorry Jason, but Khorne has to be appeased somehow. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

The bone structure of the face looks very similar to a red dragon, compared to black (or copper). So it could quite possibly be the animated remains of the red dragon from the CRB cover.

Seeing as how the user has a recent deviation showing that (s)he gave the art director some art of Freiya to show off their skills, I'm guessing it wasn't intentional. Wouldn't hurt to PM though, and say they may want to take them down for now.

I doubt this is something that's going to close doors for said artist; this may very well be his (or her) first time working with Paizo, in which case stuff happens. Plus the artwork itself is incredible; very high-quality stuff.
The art is pretty good....but they seem to have a thing for big chins...

Well, if I released the name, class, and hints about the mechanics for any of my archetypes in the ACG, I wouldn't expect more work from Sean (if he was still at Paizo). Some of the art here gives away quite a bit about the archetype!
