I’m the Paladin Lady, and I Approve this Message


This is everything I wanted from a knightly order of paladins. Seeing a powerful trans lesbian paladin on the covered rendered in such dignity is more meaningful to me than this short review can convey. Thank you all for writing this.


A delight

5/5

Rpobably one of my favourite Lost Omens books to date. In a landscape saturated by grimdark, having a faction of people desperately trying to be good and learn from their mistakes is heartening and lovely to read.

The knights are given depth and care that good factions are often not afforded, the new deity options added and their write ups are stellar. The Kazutal and Arazni set up got me pretty emotional.

The exapansions to the archetypes are also fantastic and dancing shield is a game changer! I recommend this to everyone I know <3

From the May Org Play blog, Alex says:

"Coming up soon, we have Knights of Lastwall for PFS2 and Drift Crisis for SFS. Both release at the end of May, and we’re hoping to have sanctioning ready for both on their street date."


I just saw that! Gracias.

I just got my digital copy and as expected, I love EVERYTHING about this book! The cool new NPCs, the nods to old friends from earlier APs and stories, the new options for not just Champions and Clerics, but any class willing to protect the weak and fight the undead, the brand new deity from Vudra, and of course so much representation for all sorts of people! It really makes the Knights feel like they're a group where everyone can contribute to the good fight, even if they've never held a sword and don't plan to, as well as the general vibe that even in the face of terrible tragedy and loss, people can come together to stand against evil and bring hope for a new day, a message we REALLY need in a time like now.

So THANK YOU, to all the people who contributed to this, as I imagine it's going to be one of my favorite 2e books for a LONG time!!!

From what I saw of the preview video, none; Arazni’s writeup here is different from her treatment in Gods & Magic.

Correct. Each entry details what that deity means for the Knights specifically rather than the general global writeup!

Not at launch. Not this year, but I expect it next year.

Thank you. That is what I was hoping for but did not have the Gods and Magic text close by. The domains are the same, correct?


I don’t suppose anyone can spare some hints as to what’s in the Arcadia section? I know it’s tiny, but I’m desperate.

Arcadia section...? It's basically non-existant.

Though, there are a few mentions of Arcadia when I did a word search for it. Mainly, a couple of NPC members of the Knights of Lastwall (one that came to Absolom from Arcadia as part of a diplomatic mission and was in the city when Tar-Baphon attacked and another NPC member of the Knights that went to Arcadia to offer assistance to Segada and ends up assisting with old ruins along the Grinding Coast that were once a part of the Razatlan Empire millennia ago.), and mentions of Arcadia in the Kazutal entry, as well as the Keepers of the Hearth Pantheon entry due to Kazutal's membership in it.

For me, the most exciting thing is the extremely brief mention of Aroden visiting Arcadia in the timeline early on in the book when he went to Xopatl and befriended Arazni. There isn't much more than that.

IIRC there's a paragraph near the end of the book, but I might be mistaken; someone on Reddit said that Arcadia and Tian Xia each got a tiny writeup for how the Knights interact with the region, along with an NPC for each. Maybe they were misleading me!

Does it mention where in Arcadia that ambassador is from?

Aroden's time in Arcadia got some love in both Tyrant's Grasp #5 and Monsters of Myth, if you haven't read them. It's a story I'm eager to hear more of.

It's basically small plothooks.

Here's the Arcadian one

Quote:

BEYOND THE INNER SEA

If Knights of Lastwall who serve outside Avistan are highly uncommon,
those who travel to lands beyond are rare in the extreme. Perhaps a dozen
fully sworn knights traveled beyond the Inner Sea; the following are a few
notable examples.
[snip]
Recently arrived on the shores of Arcadia, Knight Rigrumple Vladebick (NG male gnome champion) and his squires offered assistance to the people of Segada; however, they have been so far rebuffed as foreigners. The Segada high council suggested the unit can prove its good intentions by clearing out some of the old ruins along the Grinding Coast. These ruins, left by the Razatlan Empire millennia ago, are full of unquiet spirits and still-active traps. The eradication of this threat would be an immense boon.

Much appreciated!

Here's hoping we can plumb some Razatlani ruins of our own someday soon :>


I can't seem to find a section on how the knights would deal with a dhampir prospective.

LOCG mentions that something hides undead in the ranks who are sincere believers in the cause. Is that not expanded on in this text?

Wouldn't they consider Dhampirs to be not actual Undead, but simply people cursed by Undead influence?

I am looking forward to the first time "something" deems an undead Knight to not be a sincere believer anymore.

Hilarity ensues.

And that's when you bring in the Inquisitor, possibly MIB-style.

The joy comes from the Inquisitor also being secret undead.

Actually all PCs and NPCs are secret undead and nobody knows.

IIRC there was a Paranoia RPG module that had this same premise : everyone was secretly undercover.

I doubt the Knights hold much, if any, disdain for Dhampir's, since they are living and aren't generally vile members of society.

That said, the book doesn't really mention anything regarding general Undead membership within the Knights ranks. However, there is one particular Vampire amongst the Crimson Reclaimers whose affliction is public knowledge. A unique circumstance, given she was already a Knight beforehand and has some pretty powerful friends vouching for her; but I think one can conclude that the Knights are likely to accept those Undead who are sincere members of the cause. After all, there are a great many Undead whose condition is inconvenient to them and who likely wish to be rid of it, if possible.

Feels strange to dangle a plot thread that juicy and then not follow up on it.

Agreed. I haven't quite read the book cover to cover yet, but I haven't seen anything on the matter other than that particular NPC. May have just been a simple plot hook to give GM's and players the justification needed to include include Undead PCs amongst the Knights. But who knows. Maybe it'll get touched on later in, say, an Eye of Dread book.

Not that I could find but sometimes reading online gets to me (2 retinopathies in the past 2 years, 2 months apart)


I am liking what I am reading for character options but am kind of disappointed in some of the art within the chapters (individual characters) and for some of the gods. I am not sure if that is just because of the pdf or if the quality is the same in the print copy.

The art within PF2e continues to be hit or miss. It feels like whenever deities are involved they come out kind of derpy lately.

There's not a hint of red in the picture of Iomedae on page 56 (or her personal crest!) and the Sarenrae depicted pales in comparison to her Sister Cinder incarnation that was created for Quest for the Frozen Flame only a few months prior. And that Shelyn art. Ooof! More like Shelyn, Plain and Tall.

On the other hand, Pharasma looked okay, and Milani looked like she hates Mondays (and slavery).

Give Will O'Brien some more work! The two pieces he did for this were great.

Pharasma has a solution for them.

Iomedae's lack of red is intentional in this case, at least. When ordering the art for deities we've already depicted, I figured it would be nice to change up their looks a bit. Thus, a number of gods are in "battle mode" with magical armor, weapons drawn, or spells ready to be thrown. Iomedae, however, is the opposite. Her cloak usually turns red when ready for battle or acting as a leader to others. Her white cloak is intended to be her more "diplomatic" mode and intended when she's in a supporting or advisory role. Since her typical depictions are in the read cloak, I though it would be fun to show the opposite this time around.

I did not know that Iomedae wore white on occasion, I apologize!

Make sense. Most of the deities have two sacred colors.. Iomedae's are red and white. Nice to see those colors may have meaning to them.

This is one of my favorite bits of lore about her, glad that this is making it in to the book

Also, since a few people have asked what I contributed to this particular tome... it was quite a bit! (Though still only a drop in the bucket compared to my fellow contributors' total work, of course!)

Spoiler:
It includes:

—The Introduction to the book proper, as well as the introductions for the Faiths, Notable Figures, Campaigns, and character Options sections.
—Life as a Knight of Lastwall, Crimson Reclaimers, and Shining Sentinels, plus the Dozen Roses part of the Other Groups section.
—The NPC entries for Beirivelle Starshine, Clarethe Iomedar, and Ileana Tessthake.
—The Deity entries for Falayna, Kazutal, Shelyn, and Suyuddha, as well as the entry for the Crimson Oath itself.
—The new feats for the knight reclaimant, knight vigilant, and Other Archetypes (bastion, medic, etc.)

It might not look like much here, but at over twenty thousand words, it was a ton of work! (My second largest, after only Planar Adventures.) I'm incredibly proud of how it all came out, though, and very excited to see it in peoples' hands. ^_^

Working on this book along with Isabelle and everybody was a real treat. I only kicked in about 4k, but I got to cover a lot of various topics in just that. Hope y'all enjoy the book a lot!


I really am liking this book, the art is not so bad on the physical copy.
