Shards out of Bond Gah, not going to get it done - this week has been busier than I expected. Sorry. Here's what I have. Shards out of Bond "Got in something strange. Need your help. Bring Vi. -Gavin" The note was tiny, in a cramped, blocky hand. The clockwork messenger chirped quizzically at...

I personally would love to be able to add content. That'd make it much more useful for me, if I could add new classes/feats/etc in a standardized format I could bring in Not sure how viable that is, though.

I'll use it at game tomorrow and let you know how it goes.

So far it's working well on my non-rooted Xoom running ICS 4.04. I like it quite a bit so far - certainly better than the SRDs at Paizo or d20pfsrd on my tablet. Kudos!

Most importantly, those guidelines are for the GM, not the players. In my experience, letting PCs build whatever items they want based on those very general guidelines is a sure-fire trip to a broken game. Pricing magical items isn't something that can be done formulaically with much success...

If you want a rogue-ish companion, you need some kind of small, sneaky animal. Rats are good for this, as are ferrets. A snake would make a lot of sense for a poisoner. Snakes can't really manipulate things very well, though, which can be a problem. Raccoon might fit if you steal things...

You don't have much that boosts attack bonuses. Keep in mind that an inquisitor is going to lose attack bonus compared to a fighter - you're average BAB instead of good, so that's 2 points of attack you're down on the fighter right off the bat. You have a high Strength, though not too huge - do...

From the way it's written, it doesn't use the normal affliction/poison rules - it's just one-time damage. Here's the relevant text from the PRD. As you noted, this doesn't have the frequency or number of saves required of an affliction effect. Afflictions get a very standardized write-up, and...

(putting the Goblin Snail Cap as #14) 15. Forgemaster's Apron This thick leather apron is tough and blackened by long years of soot. The wearer gains fire resistance 5 and a +5 bonus to Craft (armorsmithing) and Craft (weaponsmithing) skill checks. Additionally, he does not require eye...

Thanks, glad you liked it! I've heard several people say that they don't really like horror - I'll have to keep that in mind for next round's entry! I honestly think it's one of the easiest things to write for this contest. Usually the pictures have at least some modern elements to them - I've...

Synthesist is different. You explicitly count as whichever's worse for you, so you can't get Enlarge Person while fused. The Share Spells eidolon ability does normally let Enlarge Person work.

I would actually have divination be quicksilver - it looks mirrorlike, and divination has associations with mirrors. A mirrorlike liquid that reveals glimpses of the past and future as you look into it, maybe? If you want them to be an item rather than a raw material, I'd go with...

Can I count on you to poison my opponents to help you keep your pride intact, then?

First, thanks for the great round, Wild Gazebo! I didn't want to respond to any of the judge's comments before all of them had posted, so I'll do so below. Thanks to everybody for their critiques! Very helpful and reasonable. I hadn't written anything in a while, so the start is rocky - I had...

Lots of Pathfinder classes are built around a menu of class abilities (rogue talents, barbarian rage powers, alchemist discoveries, etc) that make such a system less helpful. Still, I think you could generally use the 3.5 version of such a system and increase the target value to get an...

Skeeved? Nah. I did assume younger gamers, but that's all. I'd consider the demagogue archetype for a bard that regularly incites riots with her performances. That's an ability they get at 6th level, and it's resisted with a Will save. There's not really any way to determine the mood of a...

I use a tablet during game as a rulebook and when I'm running a game instead of printing things from Evernote. I occasionally use it to check Facebook or forums as well, but only during one player's turn. Let me explain. My regular game I play in has what I consider to be a problem player. In...

Forgot one - our GM allows us to reroll odd numbers on the HP roll when we level up. This eliminates 1s on the roll, and skews the averages up quite a bit, but you still have a chance for a low roll.

Seems to be back for me too. It didn't work about an hour and a half ago for me.

Yeah, it's been down for at least a day for me too.
