Artwork problems with the core book (Curse of the Crimson Throne SPOILER)


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


I understand that artwork has been reused in order to save money, but as we are curently playing through the curse of the crimson throne, it is really giving me problems that some of the major artwork in the pathfinder core book, is the same as from the adventure path, since my players now know what a gray maiden looks like, they cant help but paying attention when they see one mounted on a black dragon in the core book... and since they are fairly inteligent ppl, it should be simple for them to put 2 and 2 together and figure out that the rider must be non other than the queen handmaiden. anyway i gues this is just a rant, but a pice of advice to other gm's might be to be carfull what part of the adventure art you show to the players, perhaps hold back on the graymaiden stuf

I had a similar problem with Second Darkness art showing up in the book. I just nod when they show me the artwork and tell them they'll find out in due time.

Besides, the art doesn't necessarily mean they know the full circumstances. There is far more to the handmaiden than the dragon she apparently rides.
