    What's the draw of half-orcs?

    Just to throw in a counterpoint to the general "They're fun because they're a bit on the dark/evil side of things" explanations, I like them for three major reasons. 1. They're underdogs. In most settings, they're going to be looked down upon. They have a ton of social stigma hanging over...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Sneak Peeks (Old thread)

    Dude, seriously, if you guys ever put together a book that needs an art example for bards and you use a metal/punked up gnome eating his lower lip like he hates it and flipping the bird at the reader a-la that famous Johnny Cash pic, be it the American single or the British double, I'll buy two...

    What is so special about Greyhawk?

    According to Planescape, people who arrive on the planes from Athas aren't in any real hurry to go back home anyway. (though a few do try to set up a lucrative water-trade) Interesting read so far. I've always seen Greyhawk as the "original generic, anything goes but with more internal...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Sneak Peeks (Old thread)

    Speaking seriously here: I'm looking forward to full-blown punk rock gnomes. Spikes, mohawks, maybe Vyvyan-style forehead studs or even bringing the "mushroom" back that Kylie from Planescape sported. Hell, branching out, maybe even some Kim Nekroman flat-tops and afros. The new gnomes could...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Sneak Peeks (Old thread)

    Word on the street(ie: Paizo forums) is that favored classes aren't gone, but are simply no longer tied to race. You choose your one favored class yourself at creation(and apparently half-elves get to pick two, maybe). Or so folks are saying... Man, you ain't kidding there. Breath of fresh...

    Why Homebrew?

    I love a lot of campaign settings(oh Planescape, let me count the ways), but homebrew is closer to my heart. I can get everything I and my players are looking for that way. I want to run a world where black-skinned elves are just another flavor of elf rather than drow. I want to run a world...

    Pathfinder 1E Supplements to use with Pathfinder

    Green Ronin's Advanced Bestiary and the collected Book of Fiends would go nicely with Tome of Horrors.

    Pathfinder 1E What elements of Pathfinder Beta do you hope made it into the final print? (mulligan)

    Reposting dm4hire's OP, as the original thread seems borken right out the gate. Lots, particularly the Sorcerer bloodlines, Feats every level for Fighters, Barbarian rage powers(with some work done on said powers), CMB(again, with refinement) and especially the new skill system. I really...

    It's hard to avoid arguing

    Folks putting a little bit of effort into keeping the snark in their pants and hyperbole in the bedroom where it belongs would go a long way towards avoiding this issue.

    Pathfinder 1E Interview with PATHFINDER lead designer Jason Bulmahn

    I'll be sending in my outlines for the Bannister Surfer and Errol Flynn prestige classes shortly!

    So, after the Green Ronin announcement, I am...

    Dragon Age itself doesn't really get me since I really haven't been following it, but this does get me excited about a possible growing relationship between GR and BioWare. Mass Effect being one of the reasons. Plus, as pointed out above, a 3PP getting positive publicity amongst videogamers...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder RPG Core Book - Cover Posted

    The earliest I remember seeing him was on the cover for Reverse Dungeon. I can't remember when that came out though.

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder RPG Core Book - Cover Posted

    I'd prefer more Amiri, Kyra, and Seelah personally. And Harsk.

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder RPG Core Book - Cover Posted

    I love that the troll doesn't have a dangly, pointy nose hanging in front of his mouth. That has been bugging me since I remember first seeing it. I also love that the marilith isn't sticking with the 3.x look. I liked the fully reptilian version as a variant, but not as the standard. And...

    Need some demonic death throes ideas

    Nice. Random jam: The more powerful demons of the infinite layers of the abyss are themselves multilayered beings, recursive incarnations of the same damned soul. While usually only the outermost incarnation ever visits the Prime Material plane, sometimes a "truer" incarnation of that fiend...

    Why DON'T you pirate?

    Ethics. I think people should be able to make a living from their work and I don't have an overinflated sense of entitlement. Which makes it damnably frustrating when certain companies insist on biting the hands that feed them.

    If you were Scott Rouse, would you call out for the next week after tonight's mess?

    Because if we go to sleep we might miss another sudden closure of service? Seriously, the only reason I was able to secure all of my legally bought and paid for pdfs was because I work night shift. There are some things which are pretty much indefensible. Screwing over legit customers in the...

    Pathfinder 1E Idea for Pathfinder Magazine

    Considering what "waiting for the trades" did to the comic industry(though there were plenty of other factors at work), it's really the smartest move. Still, there's always Kobold Quarterly. At least one official Pathfinder article has shown up there already.

    DM questions that make you go "Uh oh"

    Do mariliths/lillendi/greater lamias have a cloaca or are we still good? :eek:
