Racial Lashunta spell I think in that section.

AoN says page 23.

Scarab Sages

Er... So, I see. I guess I'm just surprised the spell is in the Races section rather than the Spells section. Color me very confused, but thank you for showing me where to find the spells I missed clean!


COM had a lot of options that were hidden away in the races section despite their being appropriate category areas for those mechanical options elsehwere in the book. Spells, feats, class options, etc.


This is why I wound up buying color tabs for my books, to mark where things are when they're scattered outside a categorical section. Really helped cut down the hunting with Pact Worlds, Char Ops, etc.

I went with a 5 color pack and am mostly satisfied with the results. Red for weapons & armor; yellow for items & tools; green for vehicles & starships; blue for classes, themes, player races, archetypes, etc; purple for spells & magic.

Scarab Sages

1 person marked this as a favorite.

You would think that you could just mention, Race X created Spell Y - See Spells for details. Same with features and feats. I very strongly dislike the idea of having to flip to multiple sections of a book to get all the details when the appropriate section already exists. I mean, isn't it logical to put the mechanics into the same place? This isn't the first book to do something weird like that. I'll just have to keep in mind logic isn't always a thing.


I think it has to do with formatting and word counts. Each of the races needed to have full pages of combined art and text. If they were short a spell's worth of space, they put a spell in there.


This is one reason why I prefer the books to be more lore heavy. Lists of spells and items and such are best referenced via the Archive of Nethys, thanks to the miracles of hyperlinks.
