Page 43: Statue Street.. is it always barricaded, or are visitors allowed onto the street for closer looks at the statues when the Charge of the Gorgon isn't happening? Are the statues moved to the side to prevent them from breaking next year? What would the punishment be for freeing a prisoner turned to stone by the Gorgon?
page 34: are the Thumpers supposed to be a way to use Mordrons in Golorian? Because they sound awefully similar
There are various magic institutions in this book, where do the two in guide to Korvosa stack up to those presented here?

The Green Ridge district doesn't appear on the map on the inside cover.
It is described as being "against the cliff face upon which the Petals District sits" on p32. Based on that, I'm assuming that the Petals District label on the map is accurate but a little lower than it should be. It probably ought to be a bit higher and occupy most (all?) of that NE plateau. Green Ridge lies just south of the plateau and right under where the Petals label currently sits, in the area around the big green oval (Evergreen Park).
EDIT: Err ... and looking at the small map inside the book on p50, I see that my hunch is correct and unnecessary (I hadn't gotten to that page yet!).
Which is the cost of living in Wise Quarter? My PC is an elven wizard, and she wants a house in Wise Quarter or Green Ridge.
The cost of living in Absalom is crazy high!

Really the cost depends upon the value of the district. Some areas cost less to Rent a Flathouse than to stay in a good inn and eat out every day. Others cost three times or more but then you live in a more affluent district and eat better and have better clothes.
I look at it as a sort of Lifestyle cost, that includes entertainment, meals, and some clothes. It sure beats having the PCs account for the meals and such every day between adventures.
BTW, surprised no one from Paizo has answered any questions here yet.
This question popped up the week I took two days off. I sent myself a mail to come back and answer it. ;)
The Cost of Living in the Wise Quarter should be somewhere between the COL in Eastgate and the COL in Green Ridge.
Also note that the cost of a villa in Green Ridge should be 800 gp, not 8000 gp.

WHAT they let you take days off? Obviously Lisa is NOT of the Chelaxian faction! We'll see about that.
Wow! Thank goodness. :)
Thank you!!!

NEW QUESTION!!!!
Absalom is located on the Isle of Kortos. All of the maps of the Isle have a mountain chain in the heart of the Isle. What is the name of that Mountain chain?
Thank you very much.
:)
Those are the Kortos Mounts. They're described a bit in the CS and a bit more in GtA.

Hmm. I'm curious as to why we have symbols for three of the deities to take the Test of the Starstone scattered through the book (Aroden, Cayden Cailean, and Norgorber) but not Iomedae? We do however seem to have the holy symbol for Shelyn featured?
[tinfoil hat] Is Owen Stephens trying to tell us something? [/tinfoil hat]
Because we forgot.

I've asked this question in another messageboard, but got no answer;
It is said that in page 48, the Varlokkur investigates the illegal spells. It also mentions that Invisibility is one of the illegalized spells.
So, I'm just wondering, what would be the consequences of casting an Invisibility spell in Absalom? Is it only considered in other crime issues? What can the magical investigators do, do they go along the city and trace the magic in it, or do they use divination magic to sort it out?
