I'd like to suggest that Paizo host an online Index, and also a Glossary, for Pathfinder (and all other materials/adventures/etc. set in that world).

The Index would be helpful when trying to remember what previous adventures had included particular NPCs, when trying to track down a monster stat block, etc. It would also be a good tool for helping us know what publications would help us complete our collections, as more and more related products come out. (Oh, look, the nation of Tir Tanith is mentioned on pages 4-19 of this other adventure, how'd I miss that one?)

The Glossary would be helpful as we learn more about the world. Personally, I'd prefer if there could be some rules to keep it spoiler-free (for example, don't include the fact that Queen Minsaret is actually a vampire, just that she's the queen of Tir Tanith).

If maintaining these would take up resources better spent elsewhere, PLEASE give us permission to set it up and run it as a fan-based initiative, either hosted here or on DM Tools. I'm sure we could line up volunteers as each new product is released.

Does anyone else think this is a good idea? Have related ideas/suggestions?

I think you're going to find that in the nebulous future you will be quite pleased. :)

Cintra, regardless of whether it's online or not... someone will likely do it anyway.

Cool!

On the one hand, I'm thrilled that, apparently, my idea had already been incorporated in their planning before I ever suggested it.

On the other hand, I'm amazed at the super-fast response time we've been getting to our questions here.

On the third hand (can someone lend me a hand?), I'm a little worried that the sheer amount of time Paizo folks are spending asnwering our questions must be keeping them from working on all this super-cool stuff they're making for us.

On the fourth hand (lend two?), I can't imagine they'd let a little thing like lack of sleep interfere with making the quality products we're all anticipating.

Any more hands? Nah, I'm done.

But very (nebulously) pleased, overall.

Naw... don't you fret none. :)

If he's in Vegas, he's probably too busy enjoying the "atmosphere."


How about some sort of wiki for Pathfinder, Varisia, and the new world?

Oh... uh... I wish I had something clever and evasive to say here, but I don't, so I'll just use an emoticon now.

Yes, please!
