Delver's Diary - A new PFS-themed blog

[Doug Maynard]

Hi, all -

Just an announcement that I have started a new blog focusing on Pathfinder Society play called Delver's Diary. I hope to update it at least once a week. Really, it's an excuse to get more Pathfinder since I only get to game twice a month.

The blog is intended for the entire community (players and GMs alike) and will run the gamut of topics. The first two posts are up, one in which I explore the differences in playing PFS versus Pathfinder RPG, and the other in which I consider the GM101's very first tip (stand up while GMing):

Stop by and have a look! Comments and suggestions are always welcome, of course.

Thanks,
~Doug

New post up, with an overview of one of my PFS characters - Marisan, a druid from the Mwangi Expanse.

It looks good and I look forward to reading more. One thing, if you're going to use Paizo images/logos/people/places, you'll want to make sure you're following the Community Use Policy.

Thanks, Eric! I was wondering about the copyright stuff, and appreciate the link. I think I've cleaned up the site to be consistent with this policy, as well as adding the appropriate statement and adding the blog to the registry.

I have to say, this policy is pretty generous. The number of images available, between the packages and the blog, is quite impressive! I guess I just have to live with not putting up any cropped bits of the Inner Sea map (I do love maps!).

Hi, all -

I've added a new post with my second PFS character, an interesting experiment in letting the dice decide the character's class and race. I've also added an RSS button and couple of other features to the site in the last day or so.

Thanks again to all who have visited! I am GMing my first PFS game this Friday evening, so I'll have plenty to report afterward.

Hello Doug,
I hope everything is going well. I just checked out your Delvers Diary and enjoyed it. Thanks,

Looking forward to reading your experience as a GM.. good luck

[Doug Maynard]

Thanks, both of you! I think the site will be of increased general interest once I get it established for a few weeks and get into some more substantive topics.

Fixed your link for you. When you post a URL on here make sure to add the http:// or else it will try to find the page on this site. :)

I am looking forward to reading this.

Thanks (again) Eric - good to know. I've added some Pathfinder artwork that's usable (unless I'm mistaken) because it was on the Paizo blog. I'm also putting up note crediting the artist, Gonzalo Flores.

Man there is so much good artwork on the Paizo blog!

I enjoyed the initial posts. Looking forward to more.
