About Pazuzu’s Fury
A Pathfinder Roleplaying Game TRIBES supplement by Eric Menge
Born of anger, resentment and corruption, the Harpies of Pazuzu’s Fury lure the unsuspecting and weak willed to gory ends under tooth and talon. Their devotion to Pazuzu - the prince of winged demons - grants them horrific powers yet fuels an appetite that can be assuaged but never satisfied. Fear the rising of the blood moon, when the harpies take wing. Close your ears to their sweet song, for it brings naught but death. Pazuzu’s Fury includes:
• Six new feats
• Six new spells
• Three new magic items used by powerful tribal members
• Ten stat blocks (ranging in CR from 4 - 10)
• Full details of the tribe’s guardian demon - the Corrupting Aspect of Pazuzu
• Numerous adventure hooks to use Pazuzu’s Fury in your campaign
By default, the tribe dwells near Deepwater Lake (a lake surrounded by the Tangled Wood on the Lonely Coast) but can live in any sparsely settled wilderness. The Lonely Coast is a free 30-page, extensively bookmarked PDF) available from ragingswan.com.

Pazuzu's Fury is now up!

Lizardfolk (not necessarily jungle-themed), werewolves and wererats (the latter with a urban flair), arctic based goblins or bugbears. Any giantkind would be a bonus.
While some choices are very classical, I find that the "Raging Swan twist" is more than enough to provide unique character and original inspirations (just as Paizo's own Monster Revised line).
Keep up the good work!

Actually.. YES! Swamp lizardfolk are a bit overused sometimes!
I'd love to see a Desert based lizardfolk tribe (an area with a ton of lizards honestly.) Or even an amusing Urban Lizardfolk tribe(Sewer gators anyone?). Although to be honest just a simple old Forest/swamp lizardfolk tribe could also be interesting if it has some solid writing behind it!
As for other tribes that would be worth getting, I would always enjoy a Kobolds book, the little bastards have way more sneaky potential then most people give them credit for! (plus kobold wyvern riders tend to freak your players out, especially when they fail their ride checks and become midair snacks...)
Other good possibilities are Ogres, and Trolls actually, two nasty tribes that are far to often portrayed one dimensionally... a little more flavor and difference could really help there!

I think a kobold book is on the way soon. There's a description up for it on the Raging Swan website with a November release date so I'm keeping an eye out for it. I always enjoy kobolds and I've been very impressed with Raging Swan so far so will pick that one up quickly!
As for other Tribes books I'd second the desire to see lizardfolk or trolls. I think that hill giants would be pretty cool as well. For something a little more unusual I'd like to see something on the skum. Their immortality in Pathfinder could make for some rather interesting groups.
And probably my number one request (which I'm placing last for some reason) would be cloakers. I've always enjoyed the race and their rather alien mindset.

+1 for the lizardfolk, kobolds, ogres and trolls. I would love to see troglodytes done, as well as a nice hag coven. Maybe something a little less humanoid, like a kraken and its slaves...
We've already got a kobold TRIBES on the way! Kobolds of the Fallen Halls is partly inspired by Robert E. Howard's Red Nails Conan story (one of my all-time favoutites) and features two rival tribes fighting over control of a fallen dwarven fortress (and, of course, their draconic masters!)

Thanks for all these suggestions! I've now got a long list of stuff to trawl through including some - cloakers and skum to name two - that I wouldn't have thought about doing.
In a bizarre coincidence, I already have Marc Radle working up the outline of a lizardfolk tribe, which is going to probably be the second Tribe of 2011. I'm glad I'm on the same page as you guys!
Wererats and werewolves are definitely goers for next year. I've always thought the very hard to pre-prepare (like vampires) and so I think they'd be a perfect subject. I also like the idea of arctic-living bugbears, but will leave that for next winter! ;-)

Heh, bizarre indeed.
If only this were the first time 'bizarre' was used to describe me ;)
In all seriousness, I'm really excited to get started on this project!
