Pathfinder Player Companion: Legacy of Dragons (PFRPG)

Always! :)

:3

Linnworm half dragons could be interesting.

~IF~ they were to introduce a series of "Pathfinder Dragons", I'd like to see some dragons from Arcadia, the "India", and "Arabia" locations.

I notice that every bestiary, they introduce exactly 5 dragons. I think that's awesome. I believe if we're going to get another Bestiary next year, it will probably have 5 more dragons. That being said, I would believe that a Golarian only book of dragons would probably just be a specific number of named dragons and no new species. It may have some character and GM options, but nothing new true dragon wise.

I doubt, though, that we'll see a lot of information on having dragon companions, dragon steeds, dragon lances... oh... wait...

Anyways, one thing I would like (which is from the old 3.5 Dragon Magic book) is the idea of "dragon mentors". It would be cool to see benefits of having a dragon mentoring a spell caster, and then sending that arcanist/witch/sorcerer out into the world (perhaps to serve as a spy, or to further the dragon's interests).

I don't have Dragon Magic, so I don't know those details, but I like the dragon mentoring idea. What if it was a 2-way arcane bond between wyrmling/very young dragon and a humanoid spell caster (highly-vetted and selected by the dragon parent)? The young dragon gains first hand experience & knowledge (especially with spells) and likely a starter nest egg of wealth; the humanoid gains a naturally-magical advisor and second pair of hands, and maybe begins taking on some draconic traits?

*will settle for just more linnorms and not half breeds*

I would like to one day see rules for half dragons that cover the other true dragons, linnorms, etc.

I would love some dragons from Arabia, India, America(north and south), Africa, etc.

I would like to one day see rules for half dragons that cover the other true dragons, linnorms, etc.

Half Dragon templates and Bloodrager/Sorcerer's bloodlines for: Primal, Imperial, Outer and Esoteric dragons, and probably Linnorns as well.

Unfortunately, half-dragon templates aren't particularly useful for players. They probably won't be in this book.

I doubt the template would be in this book as well. I just would like to see those rules one day in something.

"46 new posts", so I thought we had an update to the product...nope. Just a whole lot of posts about nothing. Some of them not even about dragons. Disappointed.

Meh, dragons. Between 3405 D&D books on them, I don't need any more.

Yea, the problem for me is that while I WANTED to play D&D back during 2nd edition, I was not able to join regular roleplaying groups until early Pathfinder. I completely missed all these dragons that other people are so tired of. The fact that so many GMs and designers actively try to keep dragons out of games now is beyond annoying for a dragon fan like myself.

Try finding a Dragonlance group! There be dragon's there! :) One of the reasons why I love that setting.

Do we know when there will be a cover update?

Before GenCon I'm pretty sure.

I think they usually update the cover and product description about the time when they start sending out the previous month's products to subscribers and people who preordered them. I think that's roughly two weeks before the street date of the product, so...I'd guess sometime next week?

I am sure it will update before the end of the month. They usually update the month before release.

There will be no releases in july.
All of the products intended for the last wednesday in july will be in stores on the 6th of august.

Of course subscribers should begin to get the pdf on the 20th of july.

Where is that announcement? I'm not seeing that anywhere.

Product catalog & schedule.

Yes, these are subject to change, but if you consider that a few july products (like this here) haven't been actualized and that it's normal that the AP line often gets a double release in august (last year was the same if i remember correctly) due to Paizocon and Gencon preparations, it is very likely.

Of course it has to be the 3rd of august and subscribers should get it between 18th and 29th of july - my bad.

It's just one week anyway. ;-)

I can't wait for the product info to update because the current description is kind of lacking in what to expect from this book.

I wish Paizo Con revealed a little more about this one. The product description is very lacking and our imaginations can go little crazy if unchecked.

Do you think they'll be Dragons in there?

Nope. Just kobolds.

Nah. That would be way too obvious.

This is obviously a book about various soup recipes of the Inner Sea.

I think we'll learn in this book, that the true dragons were inside you all along...

But the parasitic tiny dragons that were growing inside you all along and giving you the illusion of the manifestation of a sorcerer or bloodrager bloodline until they're big enough to devour your insides and wear you like a skin suit until they finish their maturation cycle might have to wait for a Bestiary.

See what I mean, there imaginations are already running wild and they don't even know if there will be dragon related stuff in this book;)

As a spoiler:

It Will Have Dragon Related Stuff In It.

But no new true dragons.

So, would that be material for old true dragons or stuff for new non-true dragons instead?

Linnorms?

Linnorms?

I keep hoping Rysky...

Well Kobolds are related to Dragons. ;)

Is it weird that I actually hope dragon content on dragons that aren't chromatic/metallic/imperial/linnorms/belonging to any other "five dragons from different elements" groups?

Like, more on minor dragons like spine dragons and that two headed thing that attacks other dragons and wyverns would be nice and mundane-ish.

I hope that the other "true" dragons finally get some love. I am so tired of the chromatics and not as much of a fan of the metallics as I used to be. I also like to see some stuff related to linnorms and other "lesser" dragons.

Guys, this is in the Player Companion line, I wouldn't sharpen my teeth for any GM stuff like feats for dragons or new monsters.

Hey, you can have player content not related to rainbow dragons :D

We are not talking about new dragons or feats for monsters we are talking about class features, archetypes, feats, spells, traits, and magic items that are themed on these types of dragons.

Which might include Linnorms!!!

I wonder how many player companions it would take to cover all the dragon related things that people want out of this one book, lol.

Probably all of them.

Announced! Cover image and description not final.

Also, FINALLY a book on this topic. :3

And a mysterious topic indeed. I don't know if I should wait on the PDF copy or just get the darn book.

It's fun seeing everyone with a dragon avatar posting in one thread.

It's fun seeing everyone with a similar themed avatar in general posting in one thread;)

Yay! This thread works again!
