I know, but inspiration; she comes, she goes.You got all the time in the world. Not like anything else is keeping you extremely busy. ;)TAD, are you putting all of this into an organized PDF / .docx file?One file per Chapter for now. With the art I want to comission and professional looking maps I want done, the final PDF is gonna be huge.
If anyone knows anyone that does cartography comissions, please let me know, as the best I can do right now is crude hand drawn maps. I have CC3, but it has a huge learning curve and it could take me years to master it.
That whore.
Be on the lookout for new feats! They should be up fairly shortly.
Also of note is a new kind of feat; the Magic feat. By expending spell energy you can create cantrip like abilities and a few effects that are similar to jedi powers as well as watered down spells.
These feats are now live. Fighters that take appropriate feats become more like a Swordmage from 4E Forgotten Realms.

Have you worked through the tutorial for CC3, TAD? I know it sounds like a tedious prospect (believe me, I kicked and squirmed before finally giving in and running through the CC2 tutorial), but you might be surprised at how quickly you can master the program. I don't have CC3, so I could be completely wrong, but if it isn't alot more complicated than CC2, I'd bet you could gain the CC3 Proficiency feat quicker than you might think! ;)

Twice. And both times I failed epically. What it comes down to is this; a hand drawn map, then scanned, then colorized using Win7 MS Paint and finally importing the map into Word to add text. I've already started this process for Lasarnagliu (Sarunia's world-moon). Here's my progress so far.
I'd like to know what people think of the new feats.

Do I have to look at each of them individually or is there a master list I can scroll down through?
Do I have to look at each of them individually
yes.
Man, making me work for this, aren't you? :L

Looks good, bud. The borders between land and sea obviously will need some touching up, which might be a laborious task, but that's pretty much what I had to do for my Eukay map. It's worth the effort to have a nice-looking map. MS Paint should even have text capabilities with a nice selection of fonts, so you won't have to import into Word to add the text.
a small bump.
New feats are up!
So it seems my conceptual image of the Sarunia druid has split into not two, but three separate concepts. At some point my concept of the world based druid bifurcated into an animal based one. The third one is an elemental concept which needs just a little bit of a power up.
Nice stuff, TAD. Homebrewers UNITE!

As long as I have a breath in my body Sarunia will continue to be developed.
So why modify the classes and such so much?
I mean, seems you really don't like magic.
Don't get me wrong, you did an AMAZING job. I really love all your stuff.
May even use some of your feats for my games, that is if they're balanced for Core Pathfinder.

I don't know if I can speak for TAD, but from my point of view, homebrewers tend to want to put either a signature on a particular class or make some subtle alteration so that they work either as they feel they always should have or to fill a set role in their world. I'm going through that now with the Paladin, perhaps the most homebrewed/house ruled class ever next to the Wizard.
Awh, okay, I have an itchy question though.
I really desire to know why he modified toughness from 3->4 + 1->2

The world is unlike most other standard fantasy worlds, where magic has passed it's prime. In the current state of affairs, Sarunia is at the height of arcane power. Spellcasters use spell energy to apply metamagic effects and peruse orisons/cantrips and this spell energy can be mainpulated by anyone that has the aptitude for it. Pathfinder core just doesn't take the rules for enough for campaigns with heightened magical might, so it is up to me to provide those rules and make the modifications necessary to provides that feel. As a side effect of these modifications, I've recently noticed that Sarunia has more of an oriental feel to than I originally set out for, but in all actuality I'm loving it and running with it.

I made this change due the high mortality rate of low level characters. In addition to this change, 1st level characters start with an amount of HP equal to their CON score + max hd. A character with a 20 CON at 1st level could end up having 34-36 hp at 1st level.
The zealot class is now live on scribd, and should soon be up at the pathfinder database.
Divine feats are back up!
Awesome work on this, you really made some cool and flavorful changes. I always admire looking through the hard work of a homebrewer, keep up the good work.
Will do. I'm always glad when people feel inspired by my work.

I've created a new Facebook group for Sarunia. If you want to be a member let me know, and I'll add you to it. Facebook groups require creators of them to add people to hem without invitation and I realize that may rub against the grain, thus this invitation.

I like your ideas for things, esp the voice the mages get, and fighters get endurance, it just makes sense. Overall great ideas :)
