AND: While it's still 4 months until I have to choose what 4 iconics go after the Legacy of Fire...
One, I guarantee, will be Kyra.
And since the first adventure starts out in Solku, which is where Seelah became a paladin... she's a strong choice for #2.
And I'm tempted to make #3 and #4 Seoni and Merisiel.
I'll suggest that Seoni's getting over-exposed. She's in sooooo many illustrations.

The simple reason for that is that for a long time, she and Valeros were the only iconics we had. This was especially a problem for the modules, which were already 2 or 3 into their cycle by the time Pathfinder started. Which heavily skewed the art in at least the first five or six modules, I know, toward the initial iconics.

I figured that was the behind-the-scenes reason. But I'd put her and Valeros on the side lines for a bit before people get tired of them. That ensures their long term appeal as iconics. You don't want a late stage Drizzt on your hands.

I agree. I'd like to see the pregens drawn from Kyra, Merisiel, Ezren, Seelah, Harsk, and Lem - the 6 who are neither fresh off a stint in the SD path nor Seoni and Valeros, who need the time off.

The problem is... a D&D paladin isn't a paladin if her alignment can be anything. The best way to fix it, I suspect, is to include more text about how to remember "Lawful Good" doesn't mean "Disruptive Jerk."
I think that's true. I have fortunatly a player whocan play paladin like no other. He's still lawful good, but not in the over the top way some are. He doesn't use detect evil on everyone he meets and spent an entire campaign adventuring with an evil monk.
To make along story short, lots of humor, best campaign ever.
Sorry for the off-topic post.

No amount of internal logic and continuity can stop the inevitable Beach Episode.

I want one of the iconics to be a Humanoid. Preferably a Gnoll Druid with a Dire Hyena companion. Although a Hobgoblin chain-fighting Monk or a Bugbear Rogue could be neat, as well...
I wonder if the 5th AP will have *new* Iconics, or just convert / update the current twelve? 'Cause some fresh blood after two years might be cool.

So, having finished the art order for PF #21: The Jackal's Price... you might want to consider that one the "beach episode." I'm saying no more about this until next year. Just wait.

*Start Rumor-mill!*
So the previously annouced Seoni and Merisiel hot-tub scene got bumped up from issue 42 to 21!

It should be done! But, save it for a sourcebook about the 12 (or so) Iconics! :D
