Second Darkness - Conversions to Pathfinder RPG Beta (Final)


Second Darkness

1 to 50 of 51 << first < prev | 1 | 2 | next > last >>

9 people marked this as a favorite.

Here is a compiled version of the previous thread. These are (for the most part) conversions of the Second Darkness Adventure Path creatures to Pathfinder Beta Rules.
The format is an attempt to make things easier for DM's without searching the book for changes between v3.5 and PFRPG/Beta.

Spoiler:

The format has changed somewhat over time; When I have a spare minute, I will go back and clean up for consistency; Post corrections where you see errors. Thanks;
Until I'm completely done, some links will contain "coming soon" pages.

Thanks to Dennis, Anguish and AlKir for their input;

Enjoy,

~D

WOW, You know I have loved your previous thread but the complilation is fantastic. I was way behind in downloading them (and I am in the middle of the AP). This will help out a lot in getting caught up.

Thank you so much for all your hard work. I have used most of them and have found them to help out a lot being my group is a PRPG group.


Wow! Nice, thanks alot!

Looking forward to seeing the iconics!


This is great, thank you daemonslye!

Would you like any help notating the differences once PFRPG (Final) is out? CMD and such.

Wow thanks thats awesome!

Unfortunately, no. Although, I suspect I will regret it in the future (kind of like missing Gencon I at Horticulture Hall, Lake Geneva, Wisconsin way back when). Count me in for the next one. Cheers,

Brilliant work!
I'm up to 'Children of the Void' now and I noticed Yaris Neraken (Children of the Void p.20) has levels in Aristocrat. I thought Yaris was just a standard Wraith?

Wow! This is amazing. I wanted to run Second Darkness with the Beta rules but the prospect of adjusting everything in the modules was just too daunting.

Thanks very much.

Have there been any thoughts of combining these into zips (rars or whatever) by books?

I ran into a MB limit on the hosting provider but once I'm done I'll put some thought/effort into it - Likely, it will coincide with the release of the "Production" version of PFRPG containing some rule updates. At that point, I expect the new MM out as well so I'll include (assuming its allowed of course) stats for everything.

A workaround - for the time being - might be using a download manager such as DownThemAll! I'm using it in conjunction with Firefox, and it works great to quickly download all PDFs. Then it's just a matter of seconds to create six subfolders and drag&drop the appropriate PDFs into them.

daemonslye: Thanks a lot for your continued dedication to your project :). I'm looking forward to the PFRPG final conversions, and will try to chime in with input every now and then.


Added a Level 1 Sajan. Will continue to update with all module levels over time.

You are correct. You may notice I took some liberties with the conversions to Beta rules. Although Yaris has class levels, given that a template was applied, the effect was very similar to the standard wraith.

I must say, I really dig the current formatting. Atendri looks ... appropriately wicked :D.


I agree. She looks great (almost too good in fact considering she's undead).

I just noticed the Drider entry. Looks good, I might make a few other Driders in my campaign (based on wizard, fighter or rogue abilities)

What I can't figure out is why Driders use weapons designed for large creatures. Since Driders have large spiderlike body and a drow-like upper torso.
Meh, just a thought.

I really like the new format too. We have been using your conversions since I discovered them back when I was running Children of the Void. We just finished Endless Night and are headed into A Memory of Darkness. That leaves me with about two months (we play bi-weekly) until chapter six. I'm hoping you'll have time to complete them by then (I know...wishful thinking). Your version of Allevrah should be something impressive to see.

I was reviewing the the "thief_thug" pdf, and saw something in the Combat stat block for the Riddleport Thug that confused me.

Can anyone clarify what the superscript "at will" or "S" tags next to the various attacks mean?

I thought those were 4e monikers...

I'll prob stop using the "at will" moniker going forward (unless it's a specific ability; it got in there due to cut-and-paste). The "S" means a "standard action" which is useful to know (esp. where it changed over various versions).

Oh by-the-way Daemonslye, being a big art fan, I just wanted to commend you on your excellent taste in the art you put on each of the write ups.


Recently added (July 26, 2009): Drexinis; ~D

Spoiler:

I changed him somewhat from a "pretty boy" to something... different. I used a Plot and Poison class that may make him a little too powerful. Let me know how it goes. I figure having him bop in and out (using magic jar into various drow and driders after using the hezrou) will keep the party on their toes and have him drain off some spells while allowing them to heal along the way. Additionally, he is a single spell caster which will always give the party a big edge. At this level, I don't think the hezrou will present a major challenge (even the cooked up one I will add shortly);

Well, the Day is finally here! Pathfinder the RPG is released and the Beta will be retired. I like many of the changes in the final game and our group will move over to it immediately.

Its been fun converting the opponents in Second Darkness; I may look around at another set of modules to convert to Pathfinder RPG. The books I really want to convert (G-Series, D-Series, Paladin in Hell, etc.) probably won't get a link from here so I may pick something else. Ideas are welcome. I'll also try to get around to finishing the set piece in PRPG rules.

I will convert Allevrah to Beta for completeness and then will retire from this thread unless someone needs something updated.

Thanks for all the kind comments to date!

Thanks for offering to finish Allevrah. Can't wait to see what she looks like.


Recently added (Sept 26, 2009): Allevrah Azrinae;

I went ahead and used Core Pathfinder Rules. I also changed the format somewhat (yet again).

Spoiler:

After a little research, I saw no need for her to take a prestige class and so kept her core. At this level, even with all her capabilities, a tactical error could be fatal, given the party will naturally target all of their attacks on her. With the change in the Magic domain capabilities, I had her load up on Use Magic Device.

Enjoy!

Allevrah looks awesome! Thanks!

Spoiler:
Yeah, I wasn't much of a fan of that old PrC either.


Is this considered to be "the best" conversion to Pathfinder of Second Darkness? I'm need of a conversion and this is certainly looks OK :)


I have one that is hero lab based and using the current rules not the beta rules


I have Shadow in the Sky, Children of the Void and Armageddon Echo converted to Pathfinder aswell. Other parts aren't finished yet. If you (or someone else) wants to see my conversion post your email here.


Blue_Hill: grunker@gmail.com

Joey: Link? I did find your thread actually, but do you have a compilation like the one in the OP? With easy-to-use sheets and the like? When looking up NPC stats in a hurry it's pretty vital that I can just click once, not scroll through pages of a forum thread :)


The best I have is herolab files if you have herolab

Liberty's Edge

You can download Joey Virtue's Hero Lab files for Second Darkness here. If you want to print them out from Hero Lab format, you'd have to open them using Hero Lab.

You can also open most of the portfolio files as-is in Combat Manager and skip the need for a printed sheet or stat block for running combat. That's what I do. I did have trouble opening some of the portfolios in Joey's file without first updating them in Hero Lab, presumably because they were created with an older version of Hero Lab.


Yeah I have to go through and update my own all the time

Grand Lodge

I would really like to play this adventure path with pf rules, wich is the best conversion in your opinion?


If you have hero labs mine are really easy
But I took alot of liberties with the encounters and make them more challenging

Grand Lodge

I never used hero lab! I'll check it out!

Grand Lodge

Ehm, can someone explain me how to use hero labs? XD
Edit: I managed to open the files but they want me to pay 30 bucks to print the files :| I will write down everything!

btw thank you very much Joey! Must have been quite hard to re-create all this stuff!


There is also a thread of the same information from me just created from Hero Labs and Cut and Pasted

Grand Lodge

Could you link it to me? Tnx a lot!!
Manuel

Grand Lodge

Man! Found it! Thanks a lot! You are the best!!


Thank you very much - this is a great help !


Could you do Thais (if you haven't done her already)? If not then okay. I'm just a really big fan of the accidental herald. ^_~

Liberty's Edge

All the links are now 404. Pity. This just days after the Golem sale. Alas...when my copy arrives I'll have to do quite a bit of extra work I hadn't expected.

Are there any links to community-created stat-blocks converted from 3.5 to Pathfinder?


Ya all the link are dead, I was'nt expect that for my game. Can you replace it please ?


Ah! I am running a game in Armageddon Echo tomorrow.... what happened? These were all working less than a month ago!
