Dreamscarred Press Announces - The Seventh Path

[Drafghast]

Heya folks! My name is Doug Haworth, and I've been designing a bunch of cool new stuff for the Seventh Path project - and I felt it was time to share with you.
Take a look, leave some notes, give it a try at your table, and I know you'll love it! :D

Archetypes

Critters

Feats

Powers

and Prestige Classes!

And for those that don't know - Seventh Path is a reference to the six existing psionic disciplines and how this opens up an entirely new one - Athanaism.

This is the power of the mind over the spirits, seen in cultural references in everything from Mediums to seances. The Psion gets a new practicioner called the Conduit, who gains access to these powers. If you see a lingering mention of the Medium, that was the initial internal name before the Occult Adventures playtest released.

Neat. Nice to see some new psionic content amongst the recent dramatic expansion of Dreamscarred's offerings.

Been waiting for this! Can't wait to look through all of this and tell you what I think.

[Aratrok]

What strength does a mindborn have when it's corporeal from using Assume Likeness?

[Kryzbyn]

Is this the undead related psion stuff?

Thanks for all the input, guys -its good to see that you're as excited as I am to have the finished product in your proverbial hands.
Look forward to seeing the finished product in the near future!

For Ancestral Path: Since Incorporeal attacks are so rare why not give it as a bonus to touch AC? Less common than most attacks, but will be important when it comes up.

For Kalfore: How would Patterns and Fortune interact with insights that modify the Disrupt Pattern?

The Shackler maneuver is very powerful since no save is associated with the shackling and with the intimidate you're dropping someone's attack roll by 4. Skulls and Spirits is also pretty awesome. Altogether this archetype is really strong and blows the other Psychic Warrior out of the water. If I were to hit anything it would be the maneuver by making it allow a save to shackle or letting them break out as a swift/move action.

In feats: Some of the feats are a bit too specific to be considered in a lot of builds. In particular Touch of the Grave.

I like everything and love the direction you're taking with each class, gotta say. If I didn't leave a comment on something then it was pretty nice.

Just want to say I really appreciate everyone's help - especially Doug's! This has been a project we've been wanting to tackle for years, but haven't had the time, especially since we're STILL bogged down in Kickstarter fulfillment problems... so Doug taking the reins, and all the playtest feedback, has been absolutely critical in getting this book finished.

[Jeremy Smith]

So, it's been a little while, here's an update on Seventh Path:

It should be out next week!

While layout was progressing, it was discovered that some art pieces were missing, so we contracted Jacob Blackmon to wrap those up. He sent over the last monster last week.

We also found that the book needed another pass at editing, so Anguish was kind enough to go over the book with a fine-toothed comb and identify all the little things that needed to be addressed.

This week, all those changes get incorporated, as well as all the little finishing touches that seem to take far longer than they should - bookmarks, power lists by class & level, table of contents, etc.

[Adam B. 135]

Sounds exciting! Next week will be a good week.
