Who Do You Believe In?

Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Faiths of Golarion reveals the histories, dogmas, and practices of 10 influential deities venerated outside of the major cultures of the Inner Sea! Enrich your campaign with new divine lore, including:

  • A look at three of Tian Xia's most commonly worshipped deities: Hei Feng, the Duke of Thunder; Tsukiyo, the Prince of the Moon; and Shizuru, the Empress of Heaven.
  • Details on major gods from far outside of the Inner Sea of Golarion, from Gruhastha, the Keeper of Vudra, to Grandmother Spider of the Shackles and southern Garund, to the Razatlani goddess Kazutal.
  • Gods of non-human peoples, including the dwarven death god Magrim, the elven hunter Ketephys, the lucky halfling Chaldira, and the gnome gambler Nivi Rhombodazzle.
  • Obediences and divine boons that can empower the followers of each divinity, especially those with levels in prestige classes devoted to their faith.

Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Faiths of Golarion is intended for use with the Pathfinder campaign setting, but it can be easily adapted to any fantasy world.

Realized I forgot to review one of my favourite books...

5/5

...Well, all books with new deities or more details on older ones are my favourite books really :p But this one is especially great since it features lot of deiteis outside the Inner Sea region.

There is some wonky art on this one (Chaldira's article for example, her art feels uncanny in same way as Charon's art from Book of the Damned does for me. Those gnolls have really weird faces as well, they look almost monkey like instead of hyena like). In case of Grandmother Spider I'm confused if they accidentally got the worshipper and deity picture wrong way around since if they are in correct order, there is cute spider worshipper of her and then she appears in human like form. I'd have thought the human with multiple arms was the worshipper and cute spider picture was her.

But yeah, Grandmother Spider and Hei Feng are my favourite articles in this book :D Though they are all great yeah.

This looks really interesting. I'll have to see the final deity list before I get properly excited, but I always love more in-depth looks at the deities of Golarion. ^_^

Wheres that placeholder art from dont think ive seen it before.

I'm pretty sure that's final art.


I'm also sure it's the final cover. Hei Feng and Nivi Rhombodazzle are on the cover, and I suppose that angel like being is Gruhastha. And I should say, That's an AWESOME cover!

One of my wishes was to known more about the Faiths of Tian Xia, and (Hei Feng) that's close enough... for now. XD

Nivi looks a hell of a lot like Lini even down to parts of the facial tatoos on her forehead (Actually took it as a bleacling Lini for a moment)

I would love to see Thamir and/or Chaldira in it. And I'm actually sad to see Hei Feng in it. While he was awesomely illustrated on the cover, it could mean we are never getting something close to "Dragon Empires Faith", one of my most wished books, with 14 Tian Xia gods to be expanded.

Although I would love to see Shizuru and General Susumu in it! *-*

Yay! I'm happy to see this announced! It's too early to leak much more, but I think people are going to be excited about some of the divinities, and the places they're from, in here.


I look forward to seeing the powers of the divine on display.

Wow ._. This is great. Its good Paizo is finally detailing some really obscure gods, though I wonder which will be all ten of them.


I'll be getting a copy of this one. More information on obscure gods of Golarion is always good.

Wow.... love the cover btw.


Cool...I like this

Who is Gruhastha, and where did he first turn up?

Here is all I could find.


Interesting.


Thank you for the detective work!

I guess that means that I should hang on to my old Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting hardcover. :)

(I had figured that he was either Vudrani or Arcadian, but had then discounted the Vudrani option because the art didn't depict him with blue skin. Which just goes to show that assumptions can be misleading.)

I only just found out about this from Luis' Know Direction Interview, but man oh man, I am excited. Inner Sea Faiths was one of my favorite books that came out in the last year or two and now a chance for a couple Tian Xia gods?

It's really disappointing that we're getting a book on deities that no one has every heard of, but we still lack obediences and boons for the major deities of Tian Xia or Osirian, both of which I assume have far more player support than the nob-entities of this book. Won't be buying.

Hei Feng is a major deity of Tian xia, just saying.

Looking forward to the Thunder Duke! Hope Nalivanti and/or Daijitsu show up, too

Liberty's Edge

Wait, there is both a Thunder Duke and Duke of Thunder?


Looks cool!

I think both Hei Feng and the Elemental Lord Ranginori ended up with the title "Duke of Thunder". ^_^

I...even the comedic “ba-dum-tis” rimshot sounds like approving thunder.

I don't find it disappointing at all, really, since I've a lot more use for the deities in this book than I would for either of those regions you mentioned. To each their own, however! ;)

There are three Tian Xia deities in this book.

Yes! We need more Tain Xia!


2 people marked this as a favorite.

Hei Feng is one of them, and I suppose Daikitsu and Nilinivati are good choices given their tie to the kitisune and the nagaji race.

I myself would like to know more about Shizuru and General Susumu, as they are somewhat linked to dragons.

There's also a great chance for Lao Shu Po - given her importance in the distant future - or Tsuki, as he and Shisuru are of great influence in Tian Xia.


I'm hoping for one of the deities introduced in Distant Shores. Maybe Kazutal (assuming that's an actual deity in the setting and not some Razmir-esque phony thing).

It looks like the cover has been updated - the god on the right looks to be Nivi Rhombodazzle, but the description hasn't been finalized yet.


I keep wondering if that Ceyanan on the cover...

Well, that would be a huge rework into his appearance, but he is a deity. And I'm not sure if Ceyanan is a good inclusion into this book, as he isn't a god nor a Golarion specific deity.

I'm guessing that the angelic figure is Gruhastha.


That seems very...unique to me. Moreso than Ceyanan. But eh.

"A look at three of Tian Xia's most commonly worshipped deities: Hei Feng, the Duke of Thunder; Tsukiyo, the Prince of the Moon; and Shizuru, the Empress of Heaven."

FINALLY!

I was wondering when the Tain Xian deities would be presented like the other dieties.


WOW! Tsukiyo and Shizuru, alongside Hei Feng. Great choices! I can't wait to see Shizuru's illustration.

And the other choices were also good ones.. Well, except from the Dwarven god. I was hopping to see Droskar or Angradd. But that's just my personal desires, I'm sure Magrim will be just as interesting as all others.

It's nice to see anything from/for Tian Xia in general;)

It's been like that since about the beginning of October or so.

Content sounds great!

Carry on.

Anybody able to tell me if there will be any faith-themed feats in this book?


Probably not until after Thanksgiving but before the end of this month...so maybe by November 30th? Maybe?

This book follows the same format as Inner Sea Faiths. The only rules content are new obediences for each of the deities and paladin codes for appropriate deities.

There are definitely obediences and boons. No clue about any other PC material.

Thanks, I look forward to seeing the boons and info on the more obscure deities, then!
