The Mortal Possession ritual/spell seems to be ripe for abuse after the adventure. It seems like a cheap way for a PC to swap their body into that of a high-Strength/Constitution/Dexterity NPC and then indefinitely run around with many of the benefits for having high physical ability scores...

Let us say it should be a viable option to research, possibly through the technological breakthroughs, but not exactly something trivial to acquire.

Advancing research into long-distance communication and long-distance relationships does not seem that out-of-line for the campaign, does it?

Sending stones do not allow a society to have long-distance communications along with long-distance relationships, with effectively face-to-face conversations. Just imagine a chat-room-style place where people leave duplicant bodies to occupy and teleconference with.

Does that mean that the witchoil required for the duplicant technology must have souls inside, apart from a sliver of the soul of the linked person? Does a duplicant body need to be all that powerful for PC usage? There are many PCs who are reliant solely on their mental ability scores in 4e...

Duplicants pose a few tricky situations when it comes to PCs wanting to use them? 1. What exactly is stopping the PCs from picking up the duplicant technology in Islas dolas Focas and using it for themselves? Sure, Benedict Pemberton might dominate them, but there are ways around that, such as...

The godmind urn seems like a troublesome item for a DM to handle. 1. How is the DM supposed to adjudicate how broad a given domain can be? "Death," "fey," and "machines" are broad enough. What about the likes of "knowledge" or "magic"? 2. "Non-ambient planar energies" (e.g. wayfarer's...

The time slots have been updated.

I have updated the advertisement once again.

I just read of the Ire of Veles in pages 60 to 61 of Admiral o' the High Seas. How is the ship not a bigger deal in the Risuri navy? It is by far the most powerful ship in the entire world, far more so than the Coaltongue. How is it not the flagship of the Risuri navy, more so than the Coaltongue?

I am recruiting up to three players for a D&D 4e game to take place in one or two weeks. I am running the Zeitgeist adventure path. Zeitgeist is set in an industrial-revolution-like setting, with trains, factories, disgruntled laborers, firearms, fairy courts, and Victorian occultism. It casts...

Is this actually the case though? Looking at Rufus Hammerton, for example, he is a level 9 standard brute, which means that his at-will attacks should be dealing an average of 17 × 1.25 = 21.25 damage, yet he deals only 20.5 average damage on at-will attack. That is unimpressive, seeing how he...

I notice that all across the 4e version of this adventure path, many monsters and NPCs are missing hit points that their level, monster role, and Constitution scores would entitle them to. For example, in Always on Time, Olivert Boone is missing 5 hit points, Ottavia is missing 2 hit points...

1. The book allows PCs to use the Prestige system to requisition up to 50 extra officers or up to 12 soldiers, but it is actually possible for PCs to use the Prestige system in the player's guide to requisition much more than that. Could a PC, for example, requisition four 12-soldier units, or...

If there are only two players and the GM, should two players each control two PCs, while the GM controls Harkover Lee and Roland Stanfield? Or should two players each control three PCs, while the GM simply focuses on the NPCs and monsters?

How do Roland Stanfield's statistics for the one-off prequel side adventure actually work? Does Roland Stanfield have four Roland units on the map at all times, with a separate action economy for each individual Roland unit? Or do they share a single pool of actions?

I am a GM recruiting players for the Pathfinder 2e playtest. There are two available time slots. Please note which one you would like to apply for. Slot A: The Resonance Test (5th level, pregenerated characters) and Doomsday Dawn parts #6 (14th level) and #7 (17th level) are left. This is...

The players want to use inert, soulless witch's oil to transition into the Bleak Gate, possibly with looted iron amulets.
