    ZEITGEIST My Players Stole the Wand Smuggler's Money (Pathfinder)

    Can I ask where you got the figure of '160,000gp' from? All I can find is a quote saying that Nilasa Hume was going to spend 'tens of thousands' in the wands, a far cry from a whopping 160k. (EDIT: Nevermind, I found the 160k figure.) If you want 'consequences'- well, Book 3 features an audit...

    ZEITGEIST Rakshasas

    Well, let's see. I'll assume you've thoroughly read through Book 8; my plot links up a lot of small details (Ingatan being a knowledge-god, why the weretigers are hanging around her temple, etc). Rewind to ancient times. Ingatan is a god devoted to accumulating knowledge. They use divination to...

    ZEITGEIST Rakshasas

    You put in some groundwork for the plot, Ranger, which is fairly laudable. In my own game, I went to the extreme of creating a whole plot & backstory for Hewanharimau and Ingatan. That probably helped set up 'deceptive creatures reincarnate into rakshasas/tiger-forms'. I could detail the plot &...

    ZEITGEIST [Spoilers] Fey Sickness

    I believe in either the ap or one of Ryan Knocks threads it's explained that it was all three at once. The eroded pillar, Kasvarinas experiment, the eagle dying- all three. Presumably before this happened, Av was a perfectly normal air plane and dragons flew about easily with its energies.

    ZEITGEIST [Spoilers] Fey Sickness

    GMs, Zeit writers- I bring you a theory, some Deep Lore. But first, the story of how I found it. Zeitgeist. My party and I start it, and start running it. A crucial issue at the beginning of the AP: *industry vs the fey in Risur*. We nod sagely and RP appropriately as we mosey on through the...

    ZEITGEIST Deities, or the lack of

    Well, the AP does have a few. As a side note, you *definitely* should read ahead- very often Zeit will have information in later books that is really useful early on, like the list of Ob officers in Book 7. Clergy Book 11 Velkali, Goddess who shelters travellers and offers rest at oases Goddess...

    ZEITGEIST Art for Captain Thrusty

    With my party having reached Hunlow, I thought I would share some art I whipped up for the one the only, the master of all elf slaves, the corpulent fiend too corrupted for even the Golden Legion- Captain Thrusty.

    ZEITGEIST Zeitgeist - The Titan Box

    I remember treating it as a coded request for help. "Hey, the Vsadni are after us, maybe with this you can decode some hints as to their background and who's powering them." Of course, I also had Heid bring it up at the Cherage conference.

    ZEITGEIST [ZEITGEIST] The Continuing Adventures of Korrigan & Co.

    Ooh, my party will reach this point in a session or two. Should be good to see how it works out... I might pinch a little of your narration, just warning you. My personal theory is that the Demonocracy are freed former Golden Legionnaires. Once the Axis Ritual was enacted, the chains fell off...

    ZEITGEIST Adventure 12 Question [Spoilers, natch]

    "Harkover is trying to test a planar travel spell to reach the Gyre, but so far he has been unsuccessful. Divinations have suggested that a path will be revealed to them soon, though." I'd call it just an extension of that, really. "Signs point to you finding a way back."

    ZEITGEIST Bracer of Liberty?

    Hey, It's a problem with the Pathfinder-4e translation if I recall. If you'll look at the Pathfinder version you'll see Bracer of Liberty in Glaucia's statblock, and see it in the New Magic items appendix. There are a couple more items like this.

    ZEITGEIST list of monarchs of Risur?

    Aodhan was only thirty when the previous king chose him as his successor. Definitely a king between him and Melissa; unless you assume Lorcan named someone else, who was male.

    ZEITGEIST list of monarchs of Risur?

    Oh, I did this recently- I looked up all the names of the monarchs I could find, as the party is about to enter the Dreaming and see the statue garden. You're missing Queen Caroline, who knighted Dame Melissa Gahlot.

    ZEITGEIST Lanjyr maps

    Flint is kind of so big that a map granular enough to include inns and shops would be as big as a wall. The best you get is high-level district maps. Smaller ones you have to find yourself. I can help if you need any.

    ZEITGEIST Party Motivations in Books 7-9: Why do they fight?

    Andrew, Ranger, I appreciate your thoughts- yet per the books, you're wrong on a few points. Book 7 -I appreciate that the party could just join the Ob- but that would require significant alterations and DIY to books 8 and 9 so we'd like to avoid that if at all possible. Same for any...

    ZEITGEIST A debate given form: new statted-plane handouts for Schism

    I appreciate that reasoning, though I feel you yourself might have not actually followed it at time of writing. Many of the theoretical planes discussed by the Ob map on quite well to Gyre planes. Teykfa maps quite nicely to the Long Now, for instance. My justification is handwave-y...

    ZEITGEIST A debate given form: new statted-plane handouts for Schism

    Reading through Schism, I immediately had a problem with the Convocation debate, one posters have had previously. No firm planes are discussed, merely 'plane with an aspect of cyclicality' or 'lawful elemental planes'. I decided to be ambitious with my own version; every faction would be able to...

    ZEITGEIST Party Motivations in Books 7-9: Why do they fight?

    My group are two sessions into Schism, and we're running into problems. I'm not here to discuss most of them- 'how can you debate planes without listing their full stats and just going by aspects', 'how can you take a faction from a forum thread and then swap out half its planes', 'why is the Ob...

    ZEITGEIST Two questions about investigating the radicals terrorists in Book 5

    Heyo. -The notes are found in the sewer hideout beneath Soknik, yes. -I'm not sure what I can say about 'particular parts'. My party immediately guessed basically all of it. They were quite interested in the fantastical materials, and disappointed when I couldn't give them samples of the...
