How do you not own this yet?

5/5

Seriously. This is seven years of Wayfinder magazine bestiary entries collected into one volume. 181 pages of new, original monsters. They range from the CR 1/4 creamfoot fennec (a cute little animal and new familiar option) to the massive CR 30 mawagetebab'dly (try saying that five times fast) which is a kaiju version of a hydra (!!!). There are monsters included here that are perfect for all terrains, various lands in Golarion, and suitable as encounters for various Paizo adventure paths. This is a resource a good GM should not pass up. Best of all, it's produced under the community use rules and therefore--FREE! Why would you not get this?


7 years worth of monsters

5/5

And it's now in glorious color!

This is a truly beautiful product made by a wide assortment of wonderful people, both writers and artists, some who were able to break into the RPG market because of Wayfinder giving a spotlight on their creativity and dedication.

Collecting from 15 issues of Wayfinder there is no rhyme or reason here, similar to Paizo's Bestiarys, just a whole f+%&ton of cool monsters to throw at your players and to help you shape adventures. And even better, it's free.


It's actually really good

5/5

So today is 6/1/17 and I downloaded this, just to see what the good kids of Wayfinder have done. Because of this Bestiary, I went out and got the other wayfinders that I didn't have.

Went through and read every entry in the last few hours.

Art is on the good scale. Some I don't care for, but that's just an art style choice.

Most of the writing and the monsters are pretty good. Edit here and there, but nothing distracted from my reading.

The layout. (there is a scene from High Fidelity where Jack Black is listening to a demo tape of the band, cringes and says) "It's really freaking good."
I'm sure there was some guidance/permission and help on font choice etc because it's pretty close to likeness rights. It's good. Like really good.

These kids are alright in my book.
Well done.

Awww, poor Troll Augur, they were just wanting to help people.

YUS.

Doomed Derelict, the Sea Wanderer is looking for you!

I like how the energy drain works, makes the ship a hazard and a monster, heck, you could have one pretend to be run ashore and when people go to check the cargo *ZAP*

Silver Crusade

Sin Eater works great for a Sin Dragon (Pride), since you have to be pretty arrogant to take one on in the first place, so they'll always have a supply. I think if I were to use them though I'd mod it to where they'd still get the soul even without an elaborate setup for a sacrifice, most arrogance tends to wane in those situations.

Silver Crusade

Giant Knifewing.... I hate the Vermin Type -_-

It's an Animal/Magical Beast except when it's not, and it doesn't get any skills or feats, except when we spend wordcount to say they do, which is almost always, and takes away from giving the monster other abilities and lore.

Rant on the Vermin type aside I like what the author did with this, and the wing scimitars are a cool idea.

Silver Crusade

Friend bone birb dragon!

I like, gonna call it The Kindness if it's got a lot of ravens already around hehe

Silver Crusade

I also like the scale covered acid spewing doggos that live in rivers. I want one.

Silver Crusade

Dreadling.

It's like a Halfling, but evil... er.

Silver Crusade

Duergar Lizard... whose name I can't spell due to the current keyboard I'm using >_<

Just more evidence that the only thing Droskar is halfway competent at is stealing other people's stuff.

Dark Archive

Druegöbas?

Silver Crusade

Yeah! Those!

Dark Archive

*nods* well I ain't trying to type that again, that o with dots is a total pain

Silver Crusade

YUS.

But not too many ranks. Every time he plays against someone in a fiddling contest he loses.

It's Asmodeus, so the whole "contest" thing is likely a setup for a variant on the fiddle game.

Will there be a print or POD version ?

I don't really see that happening. This is entirely done under the Community Use Policy, so we cannot profit from this at all. No stopping you from printing up your own quality copy (I know that's what I will be doing, personally)

100% of our focus and efforts need to be spent on Wayfinder copies for PaizoCon.

So, have any of these creatures since been used in any official Paizo products?

It would be cool to see some of them go full canon.

Some Wayfinder items in the past have become canon, so I don't see why they cannot happen again.

Hmm

In the 'Cave Camel' description, it mentions their "dessert cousins". I assume you mean dry terrain rather than sugary food, so the second S is a typo.
