Hello everyone! The team has been hard at work getting the latest book and changes in, and we're happy to show you what we've got! The massive new Firebrands comes alongside the latest in the Gatewalkers adventure path, plus a host of new changes for the site! Among the many things listed below, we have a new "Deck of Many Things" feature which will allow you to "favorite" some pages for quick reference on the AoN menu (see below for details). Our search filters have also received a number of improvements, including the final replacement of our old tables in the Spells area with snazzy new options and a more responsive table.
Thanks for all of your support, and please let us know in our Discord channels if you have any feedback about the new features!

- [Adventure Path] Pathfinder #189: Dreamers of the Nameless Spire

Site Updates
- Our settings menu, Shelyn's Corner, can now be accessed in the mobile view. For users unfamiliar with the menu, this allows you to change your theme and adjust certain settings like the pop-up previews.
- Themes have been separated into "themes" and "feel", where themes control color and feel controls things like rounded corners on titles or the "orc" setting.
- Added "Deck of Many Things" to the desktop menu. You can press the heart icon in the title of a page to add pages to the deck, which you can then quickly access by opening the deck at the bottom of the navigation menu. Note that this menu is currently only available on desktop and on certain mechanics (Backgrounds, Feats, Spells) while we test it out.
- Added "Full" result display type to search. This type displays a full version of each result page directly in the search. You can use this to have an experience more akin to reading in a book. For those of you that preferred how the background page worked before it was reworked, this display type replicates something close to that. See an example here.
- Added "Default params" option to search. This allows you to configure which filters and options that are automatically applied for each page with the search. You could for example save so that when you visit the backgrounds page the full display type mentioned above is automatically applied, or so that traits with "All ancestries" are automatically filtered out when visiting ancestry feat pages. Note that any saved defaults are NOT applied when following a link with filters already in it. Also note that any filters saved to the search page are not applied to the quick search bar.
- The Spell tables now use our new search-based tables. You'll find they have many new columns compared to the old ones, like Actions, Area, Range, and Duration. With this all our old tables have been replaced to the new ones.
- Spell Catalysts now have their related spell(s) indexed, and a column has been added to the Spell Catalysts table's default columns.
- Armor, Shields, and Weapons tables now has a level column by default. Shields also has a bulk column.
- Armor pages now list which armor category the armor is in (Unarmored / Light / Medium / Heavy).
- Added "Armor" filters, which can be used to filter armor category and armor groups.
- Added a filter for "Damage Die" in the "Numbers" filter button, which can be used to filter weapon damage die size.
- Added "Region" filter, which allows filtering regional backgrounds.
- Moved "Reload" filter to "Weapons" instead of having its own filter button.
- Added a search input to find available table columns.
