Looking at the map of Varisia from the RotRL PG, I got a few questions:
Is Kaer Maga on a waterfall?
Are there any towns or sites in Varisia that you guys will not develop into one of yoru AP's, just in case a DM wants to pick a spot and develop it him/herself.
And also, how much did/will dragons play a role in the history/story of Varisia? I ask because a player of mines want to play a Dragon Shaman and has his backstory kind of written out, but for it to work, dragons would have to play a pretty strong role. I told him I'd get back to him.

Word is, we'll be getting a "Dragons in Golarion" article in an upcoming Pathfinder (I want to say it's #3, but I'm not gonna swear to it).

Looking through the information on Kaer Maga in Seven Swords of Sin, it appears that there are a few waterfalls coming out of the city, fed by the natural springs beneath it.

You should be able to find an answer to this question here.

Pathfinder #4 will have a write up on Golarion's dragons by Mike McArtor.

Is Kaer Maga on a waterfall?
Funny story there...
We developed the map of Varisia for Pathfinder at the same time as Kaer Maga was being developed by James Sutter for Seven Swords of Sin. Somewhere along the lines, the fact that a river flows right through the dot that signifies Kaer Maga didn't make the transition to Seven Swords of Sin. SO! As a result, the Yondabakari River plunges over the edge of the Storval Rise a few miles outside of Kaer Maga, which actually still works fine with the map (keep in mind that at the scale of the Varisia map, the black dots placing the location of cities are just over three miles in diameter... there's a lot of wiggle room behind that dot!).

Yeah, but I would love to shoehorn Savage Tide into Golarion to start dropping hints and names for Pathfinder adventures to follow. However, there doesn't appear to be anywhere in Varisia to do that easily...I really can't wait for the Gazetteer.
That is a funny story.
I would like to say this: I am fairly new to the Paizo messageboards, but I like the fact that the Editor himself, along with several people on the staff, gets online and answers questions personally. Everytime I read one of you guys' posts, I feel weird, then apprieciate it greatly. Thanks for actually participating with us. If I never get a chance to run my Pathfinder games, I will still be a loyal fan of Paizo.
