Question, with updated spells could we possibly get something like DnD’s version of prestidigation
That is, a cantrip that creates “harmless sensory effects” like sparkles or creating fake rain or making my character’s eyes glow or change color, or making something smell like roses or freshly baked pie
Stuff that would be amazing for role play, and especially for bards wanting to add theatrical effects to their performances, but otherwise doesn’t have mechanical effect
I get pathfinder is very tight with its rules, but I feel there should be things that allow for pure roleplay and flavor.
Regarding the idea of "rune morality",
Paizo "you" could make one rune for each School of magic including "universalist" and "Divination"; 9 runes for the Nine Virtues, and 9 Runes for the nine sins. Each rune to one Avistan Deific (lesser god) for each rune (18 total). Are the other "lesser gods" still out there? sure...
but they might be continental in scope; Garund gods, arcadian gods, tian xia gods, so forth.

where did my other posts go?
I can readily see "Desna" tired to "Good"-"exploration rune" aka Divination school, and thus foresee a Desna Card for the future Harrow deck...
oh!
A "major arcana" of 18 "Rune" (A morality +deity +school of magic) harrow cards...
Pathfinder Virtue runes / sin runes, "rune stones"
as in, "the ancient witch cast forth the pouch, spilling the runes"
Hey. This could also be a set of Pathfinder "Rune" charm bracelets, rune necklaces, and rune rings. This idea of a Paizo alternative to an alignment based on 9 Virtue runes and 9 Sin runes could also be linked to Aeon stones?
For pathfinder society, Rune favored wayfinders, and Awarded runes for player's accomplishments!
more ideas!
Reposting this because my SUGGESTION vanished:
Dear Paizo.
in regards to alignment, please consider using your "RUNES" which have been a part of the Pathfinder game since the very beginning. example:
"Good" +"Virtue" rune, or "Evil" +"Sin" rune.
let's tweak things a tad: there are nine Avistani deities of good, There are nine Avistani deities of evil, there are nine schools of magic (include divination and universal), there might be 18 different aeon stones which could bear a rune for a virtue or a sin, you could have a "major arcana" suit of cards for the Harrow deck featuring one deity each, one rune (a virtue or a sin), and an aeon stone shape/color.
Dear Paizo, a suggestion.
In regards to Ability scores.
Please include illustrations of:
Increasingly developed Different physiques,
doing increasingly difficult tasks,
for each of the Attributes.
Why?
because I need "LANGUAGE" to tell a story.
the numbers +1, +2, +3, +4, etc are MEANINGLESS.
I need a vocabulary with definitions that are rooted in REALITY.
I need to communicate to my players how their attributes affect their ability to interact with the game world.
a meaningless +1, +2, +3, etc... will not do!
