Scarab Sages

What do you guys think is safe for player's to read from the issues of Pathfinder? With them nicely separated into the various chapters on my downloadable PDFs, I can pick and choose what they can read.

Obviously not the main adventure or monsters. How about the Journals? The Religion Writeups (Core Beliefs, whatever)?

I have permitted my players to read those two sections. I also have one player whose character is from Magnimar, so I let him look at that section. I figure that as the information becomes available to them on a one by one basis, I'll release more info. But the Deities and Journal are open from day one as far as I'm concerned.

I was thinking about the Journals, specifically the Korvosa ones, there weren't any that mentioned the

Definitely the deity articles for Desna and Abadar - there's a lot of relevant flavour and background information in these to fill the void for cleric players, and my players lapped it up!

The Pathfinder Journals? Depends on how you wish to use them. For example, Journals describing Shoanti tribes could really help a Shoanti player with background flavour and roleplaying; however, the Journals are also ripe for converting to side-adventures while traveling between the main adventure path locations. So in the end, it's up to you.

I don't mind showing them to players, so long as there isn't anything in them that would give away spoilers from the campaign. For example, I'm going to be running CotCT. I don't *think* any of the stuff about Korvosa in the Journals would ruin that, but I don't recall.
