PCGen Users can now create and maintain characters for the Pathfinder RPG. Simply launch PCGen v5.16.0 and under the "Setting" menu change the "GameMode" to "Pathfinder" and you're ready to load the Pathfinder RPG Beta Playtest data set. In addition to the new Pathfinder RPG Beta Playtest data set, the PCGen team has added 31 other new data sets. Among these new data sets are the first three Pathfinder Adventure Paths from Paizo Publishing Inc., Rise of the Runelords, Curse of the Crimson Throne, and Second Darkness.
