The PFRPG Compatibility License and the PRD


Product Discussion

If I were to be publishing a 3rd party product, would I be allowed to make references to the PRD in the product?

For example, let's say I want to direct readers to the PRD for reference. Would I be able to provide a url or a hyperlink to the PRD itself or even a specific page in the PRD? How about something like this?:

"This product makes use of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game RPG Core Rulebook and Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Bestiary. These rules can be found online as part of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Reference Document at paizo.com/prd."


The Compatibility License Page answers all of these wondrous questions and more, dear sir. Specifically, Section 5 along with Exhibits A and B near the bottom. :)

Yep, I think Daviot has it right. The PRD is not listed in Exhibit B, so it can't be referenced. You have to reference the proper publication shown in Exhibit B.

Also, questions about the pathfinder compatibility license and being a pathfinder compatible publisher belong on the compatible publisher section of the forums.
