Hilarious mistake


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


In the Rival guide on page 13 there are the detailed stats of an NPC named Echean.

In his spell list on the 6th level spells there is a quite disturbing (the guy is evil)name of a spell named mage's lubrication.

The book is the first dndish book I've seen to include gay content (page 8 Exander Runthorn) so this mistake would be funny to actually be intentional.

The Exchange

I don't have the book, so the typo may exist, but the spell is, I believe, called Mage's Lucubration.

Dark Archive

That is exactly the sort of 'correction' that a spellcheck program will make, so I'd blame that on a machine.

Lol. That's pretty funny.

When I first saw this thread I thought "I didn't create this thread, what the heck?"

My handle used to be Ravendark on the v3.5 forums before my brother jokingly changed it to Ravingdork (and I decided to keep it). :)

You're always throwing me through a loop Ravendark.

It's not too uncommon in Pathfinder. Hell, D&D had bisexual and homosexual members of the Big Good groups in Exalted Deeds.

But to be honest I'm just glad this spell didn't pop up in the Marrow Reavers section.

Kind of reminded of that gender typo for that NPC in Second Darkness. Or was that actually a typo? Don't know if it ever got cleared up...

Eh, in Kingmaker #2 there is a typo on the map which talks about a "Wangering Giant". I'd rather not know what the Giant is "wang-ering" about. :p

You know with the interspecies sadomasochism and all, nothing out of the ordinary, oh wait yeah. :)

THAT WHOLE SECTION OF THE BOOK >:(

Spoiler:
;) Well done btw.


That spell used to be called Mordenkainen's lubrication. It was changed due to the fact that Paizo doesn't have rights to use the name Mordenkainen.

I hope you are joking but I 'm not sure so.. The spell is called Morderkainen's Lucubration.Check the meaning of both words and add the meaning of the first in gay content.Then add the fact that it is a NE elven wizard doing this kind of thing to his opponents.

The name Ravendark comes from a mix of the surnames of my favorite two characters:Akira Raven and Darioth Darkborn.I know it must be confusing but please bear with it.

Not sure what lubrication has to do with being gay, I assure you straight people use it too. :)

As for the spell i recall it, I don't know if it was a April fools edition of a old dragon or maybe a web page or something. But i do seem to recall the spell.

I think it was on a web page that had similar joke spells like Morderkainen's Unfaithful Wife.I have certainly seen it again too.

A spell to go in the book with Bigby's Groping Paw and Bigby's Fondling Fingers.

What that spell in an early OotS strip? Evard's Forceful Intrusion?

Yes, this is an actual (thought unofficial) D&D splat book. I now feel dirty for calling that mess a splat book.

Splat.

Ebby's Spiked Tentacles Of Forced Intrusion.

The reason you don't annoy wizards until long after they have run out of spells.

Book of Erotic Fantasy? Encyclopaedia Arcane - Nymphology was way better!

Wizards run out of spells?

But seriously, don't wait too long, or you'll miss your chance.

Astonishing premise for a thread but hey, bringing the sex back into RPG. Man, we're hot :-)


Goblins do it in the street!

Good job grease is only a first level spell...

You think the Book of Erotic Fantasy was bad... try the Encyclopedia Arcane - Nymphology

DOH....this is what happens when you reply before reaching the end of the thread...

Scarab Sages

Naughty and Dice was also a much better book then Boef.

"Dear Radio Yerevan, my wive smokes during our lovemaking. What can I do?"

"Slow down or use a lubricant."
