Remarkable Races Pathfinder Compendium released!


Product Discussion


Alluria Publishing's Pathfinder Compendium of Unusual PC Races is now available.

This brilliantly illustrated compendium is 100% compatible with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and contains all you need to add fifteen new and unusual races to your campaign. Also included are over 100 new feats, a hoard of monster statistics, a score of new magic items, and other great racial resources to make these new races come to life. Whether you are GM looking for new options, or a player seeking something different, the Remarkable Races Compendium will breathe new life into your game!

This compendium contains all of the material in Remarkable Races Pathway to Adventure: RRP01 through RRP15. It also has a dozen additional pages of new material. 30 cardstock minis are included as an added bonus!


Great timing, as I picked it up on the Cyber Monday sale last night over at DriveThru. The pricing was well worth the deal rather than purchasing each of them individually.

I'm a huge fan of the Pathway to Adventure races but I'm kind of bummed out to hear that there is 12 pages of new material in the compendium. Is there any hope of getting hold of that material in a separate product for those of us that have all the individuals?

I think that's fair since if you purchased them all individually and it costs more than the compendium itself as a whole, you should get a little freebie as a consolation. To me, that would be good customer service.

Spoiler:
Reminds me of my grief / frustration with CD and DVD releases with extra songs and director's footages released 6 months or a year later after you bought the initial release. But I'll keep out of that diatribe here. :-)

I'm not even looking for free - i'll gladly pay for it...just not $20.

Actually, if you purchased all 15 races individually, Alluria Publishing will send you a complementary copy for free (subject to verification). Please email: support@alluriapublishing.com for more details. Complementary copies begin Dec 2nd, the offer begins on that date.

Will this eventually be available in print?

Yes. We are still working on the details of that, however.


Having read reviews for these races as they came out first in 4e and now in Pathfinder I have something to ask:

Have their needed to be any specific changes in mechanical offerings between the 4e version and the Pathfinders? I'm particularly thinking about how races like the Entobian eventually had options like flight, which I guess from reading about 4e isn't too unbalanced.

Not only did there have to be specific changes in the mechanics, there had to be sweeping changes. 4E and 3.5/Pathfinder mechanics are like apples and oranges, and in some cases we had to settle for a race with a similar "flavor" to the one presented for 4th edition. To illustrate, simply look at a Pathfinder elf, and a 4E elf, and you can see marked differences. These differences are also apparent in the two different editions of Remarkable Races. This was not limited to the mechanical either, as 4E and 3E have different cosmologies, damage types, and design approaches. All of these things had to be taken into consideration. The two books, while similar in appearance and page count, are quite different from one another, as are the incarnations of each race and their mechanics.
