I remember them mentioning in a video from a few months ago that Kevoth Kul could give you access to Skymetal Alloy, Khismar Crookchar is also in it and they mentioned him giving access to some kind of drug though so that might be what you're looking for!I hope so, Numerian Fluids were one of many random-table effects from 1e, and while I get that they have niche appeal I absolutely love them. Those and Wild Magic (which probably doesn't fit in this book) are things I'm hoping to get rules for eventually.
On-topic: I wonder if this is a good book to bring Numerian Fluids to 1e. They were pretty related to Kevoth-Kul. I also wonder if we'll get more information on guns in 2e. Not full gun rules, but maybe something adjacent to them in a section about Alkenstar (the person) or a legendary figure in or around Alkenstar (the place).
There is an NPC in Age of Ashes that is described as having a gun.
** spoiler omitted **
I'm just a player so that is the extent that I know, but someone who has read the AP might be able to jump in with more info (if it exists) behind a spoiler tag?
I've seen the statblock for it
On an unrelated note, I just realized that the abbreviation for this book (along the lines of the Core Rulebook being the CRB or the Advanced Players Guide being the APG) is the LOL.

Updating the list of confirmed legends. Two of my favorite characters from the setting were confirmed! *w*
- Old-Mage Jatembe
- Her Infernal Majestrix, Queen Abrogail II
- Hurricane Queen Tessa Fairwind
- Whispering Tyrant
- Grand Princess Eutropia
- Nex
- Geb
- Great Dwarf King Taargick
- Linnorm King White Estrid
- Runelord Shorshen
- Dear Grandmother Baba Yaga
- Bearer of the Viridian Crown Telandia Edasseril
- Khismar Crookchar from the Technic League
- Black Sovereign Kevoth-Kul
- Shimali Manix
- Sapphire Butterfly
- A hellkinight leader
- Magaambya member that I can't remember
- A member of the knights of lastwall
The last five legends are at least unknown to me or yet to be named. Could anyone share something about Shimali or the Sapphire Butterfly?
Thinking about possible legends included in the book, I can't remember a gnome of great importance to the setting. We have a dwarf king and an elven queen, and there are also the halflings from Bellflower and the Orc chieftains from Belkzen or Belkzen himself... But what about the gnomes?

Aren’t you missing at least one from this list?
Lost Omens Legends is almost upon us. I'm interested in hearing what figures people think made it into the book. For reference, here's all of the figures we've confirmed *somewhere* in the past year.
``` Queen Abrogail II, Old Mage Jatembe, Tessa Fairwind, Tar-Baphon, Artokus Kirran, Baba Yaga, Belimarius, Sorshen, Geb, Nex, Hao Jin, Janatimo, Grand Princess Eutropia, Kevoth-Kul, Sapphire Buttefly, Taargick, and White Estrid```
Notably, Hao Jin, the Ruby Phoenix, Artokus, the alchemist doing the immortality elixir, and also missing Belimarius.
The magaambya person is Janatimo, Speaker of All the World’s Tales.
Captain Shamali Manux is a Firebrand. One of the first ship to ship from Vidrian to seek help.

Well, dang. I was sitting over here comfortable that I could skip this one, but then they started revealing all the major NPCs that I'm really interested in.
Got me again, Paizo.

I'm probably not going to switch to PF2, but I absolutely love Golarion, which is my favorite setting/world in all of D&D land so a book about the legends of the Lost Omens setting is something I *must* have.
Thank you Paizo for creating what I am sure will be a truly awesome book!! This has be me quite hyped.
Plus, I rather like some of those authors listed, they are pretty swell folk!
From the office of expectation management:
There won't be stat blocks for any of the characters featured in this book.
NUTBUNNIES! Oh well...:(

A lack of stats is a good way to get hard-headed gamers like me who aren't playing PF2 to pick this up.

Oh oh oh! There was a tease posted yesterday on discord:
Luis Loza asked for a number between 1 and 42... of course 42 was selected. Apparently that was the jackpot.The 42nd and final entry in the book is a triple NPC entry! (Surprise, there are actually more than 42 people in the book.)
Xerbystes II, Hebizid Vraj, and Deena al-Parishat
Oh, the third one is a completely new character.

Also, that entry has extra animal companions mechanics related to these NPCs.

That triple NPC could also be the case for the Nidal's Triune rulers.

[... *snip* ...]That triple NPC could also be the case for the Nidal's Triune rulers.
Oh! Luis Loza again posted a tease!
A double entry, the 26th entry is for Magdalena and Martum Fallows, the leaders of the Bellflower Network.
Their entry includes cool alchemical gear that members of the Bellflower Network use in their endeavors.
From the Legends we already know, which do you think is the strongest?
Baba Yaga > Nex/Geb > Tar-Baphon/Sorshen... Maybe?
That's probably not the book answering this question, but maybe we can speculate better after it's release.

It's heavily implied that either Nex had the resources of a god or just was a god.
I mean according to worldscape comics, ** spoiler omitted **
Well, Geb did bring a goddess back from the dead as an undead. Nex, his rival,should be capable of no less than toying with minor divinities as well.
I don't know about the others because they all have some pretty impressive feat in their history, but definitly I see Baba Yaga as the most powerful.
All these things about Geb and Nex make me realise that I really need to look what's happening outside of Avistan, they seem lot more powerful that what I imagined
| 2 people marked this as a favorite. |
Baba Yaga was CR 30 in 1E. Sorshen was CR 27. Geb and Nex would have to be somewhere in this range.
| 3 people marked this as a favorite. |
According to James Jacobs the ranking would look like this:
My preference, which isn't the same as canon, since I don't make that decision on my own, would be:
Alaznist
Baba Yaga
Xanderghul
Sorshen
Jatembe
Tar Baphon
Nex
Geb
Karzoug
Zutha
Note that Alaznist is only stronger than Baba Yaga due to her (temporarily) getting time travel powers, and that without that she is less powerful (clarified a few posts down).

Belimarius was weaker than many of the Runelords, yet look who's alive now? I'm curious to see what's her agenda following the rise of New Thassilon.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
To be fair she has shown she don't want people asking her anything, like with Kostchtchie (even if he dind't ask nicely or anything it's a good exemple)
Or the fact that she grew bored of her kingdom in the First World only because they started to venerate her

I found these tease on Arcane Mark's discord server (for Mark Seifter's Twitch stream). Discord Link
We are a smallish community, with lot of Paizo people. All very welcoming and friendly. :3There's also a Pathfinder discord server made by the subreddit people, there are some Paizo employees sometimes, but it's much more for/by fans. They have about 8k people (last I looked) Pathfinder subreddit server
The only official Paizo-made server is the Online convention one, acting as virtual tables for centralized voice chat for Pathfinder/Starfinder Society games. But it's basically closed between con.
More on the subject: The other day Jason teased that Razmir was in the book on Twitter. Twitter POst

Basically, the only reason Baba Yaga is not a full-on deity at this point is that she feels like that would restrict her (she wouldn't be able to travel the material plane and poke her nose in people's affairs). :P
(Half joking here)
There is no Igwillvin about it :)
New info: Sorshen and Belimarius share an entry.
Kinda bummed they share an entry, but I guess there's a fair amount of info on them already. Most of it is obviously 1e, but I'm guessing not much would be added since in world not much has changed. Ie, no time jumps, no world changing catastrophes, no ends times, etc to signify a new edition. Just some updating to nations, a couple new ones(but nothing truly major, I don't think), and various other changes due to the APs and other game events.

Got a load more people confirmed to be in it by the know direction stream! Andira Murasek, Irabeth Tirabade, Wynsal Starborn, Xerbystes II and more!
Also some really cool teases of some of the art and content! The hobgoblin manual page on how to negotiate with humans without scaring them is a particular delight.
Oh, that's awesome Irabeth is included!

My only question would be if Queen Gallifrey would count for this book or the beyond one since...isn’t it canon she’s ascended to her Iomedae’s Herald?
I'm not sure if she is among the legends in the book, but she in mentioned as one of the most popular buyers of the sun orchid elixir. In this same section shw is labeled as Herald of Iomedae.
Hoping for anyone with the pdf to share the full list of legends. The Know Direction stream did show us a good number of the npcs, but I can't stop thinking about the complete list.

Thanks for sharing! I must say that I'm really happy to see many lf my favorite npcs confirmed - specifically Azaersi, Choral and Jakalyn. Yet, I can't deny that I'm surprised by the absence of many famous npcs of the setting.
From the confirmed list, this are the ones I know close to nothing (or nothing at all) about:
Anong Arunak
Avarneus
Camilia Drannoch
Irahai
Janatimo
Kalabrynne
Clarethe Iomedar
Kassi Aziril
Nankou
Sapphire Butterfly

I'm surprised to not see the following names in the book, although this could also lead to future products in the same format including them.
Kazavon
General Arnisant
Ruby Prince Khemet III
Sirian Aldori
Walkena
The Black Triune
Domina Jilia Bainilus
Ameiko
Not one, but three linnorm kings? That's really exciting.
