    Accents at the table?

    Once in a rare while I'll try one, but usually only for the first session and maybe the second. The sandbox Pathfinder game I'm playing in has two guys who both used "Celtic" accents in their first session, but I missed their second session so can't say if they continued. The Curse of the...

    Pathfinder 1E Whos is your favorite Pathfinder freelancer and why?

    Does Wolfgang Baur count? I want to check out some of the Open Design stuff for Pathfinder sooner or later.

    Custom BEHOLDER

    Wow. I'd design an encounter around that, maybe even an entire adventure, to showcase that mini. Great job!

    Why work when others can do it for you - A guide to Summoning Monsters

    This post is for clarification only. Ignore if you already know and apologies if anyone thinks I want to argue, I don't. The d20PFSRD site is great and I use it myself. However, the Paizo PRD is a better site to reference when trying to exclude 3rd party, "unofficial" if you will, material...

    Why work when others can do it for you - A guide to Summoning Monsters

    I don't know about including 3rd party material in a guide. Maybe in an appendix, but I was pretty sure I'd never seen a cold iron elemental before so I had to read this with a critical eye.

    Summoning Information - a guide to an alternate Eidolon

    You've pointed out something interesting that I didn't consider. I gave my eidolon Knowledge skills that I didn't want to spend points on, but never considered Disable Device. I've actually been playing, (cheating I suppose) without one skill chosen, but now I know where that last slot will...

    Would a game group where there were changing GMs work?

    I'm currently playing a variation of this idea. Two weeks on, we play Warhammer FRP 3E and then we switch to two weeks of Pathfinder. During the Warhammer period the Pathfinder DM emails us with rumors and to deal with downtime actions. This was the best idea the '3' DM's could come up with...

    Pathfinder 1E Why play Pathfinder?

    I play it because it is a familiar comfortable game, yet has new features, which sometimes can result in "oops" moments (3E incorporeal rules vs. Pathfinder incorporeal rules as an example) but on the other hand also some "cool" moments. Also because it is new the fluff is all new and perhaps...

    Bluffside for PF--would anyone be interested?

    There is rub I believe. The people who know Bluffside probably are in the camp of being happy with their version or wanting more fluff/crunch of existing or hinted at material. Then you have others who others who would be seeing Bluffside for the first time. There are probably also smaller...

    seeking advice: playing a Vampire Druid?

    frankthedm has lots of good info, but you probably really need to hash those details out with your DM. Consider, if you want to play your vampire, is your sire going to force you to do evil things? Can you play that? Do you want to? Assuming your gnome was adventuring with the druid, will...

    Eldritch Abomination Synthesist Summoner help

    I feel your pain. I'm playing a summoner, just a straight out of the book variety, but still. I have had to explain what my eidolon looks like more than once. I can see it in my mind, mostly, but I've spent probably 2 or 3 hours googling pictures and figures to no avail. Then, I just...

    Pathfinder 1E Weekly game cancelled - entertaining myself with Haunting of Harrowstone analysis

    Our weekly game has been on haitus for awhile now, the DM had surgery and is recovering. So, we are in the second module now, Trial of the Beast. We've just driven off the wraith in the abandoned town, and will be heading back for our second day of the trial. Perhaps it would be better called...

    What can I use instead of kobolds, goblins & orcs?

    Lizard men, xvarts, norkers, other critters from Greyhawk that I can't remember off the top of my head. Maybe a group of escaped slave races from the Scarlet Brotherhood.

    Curse of the crimson thrones to easy?

    I don't like 15 point buy, but I can make it work. Essentially you have 3 dump stats, though I'm sure people buy points back by lowering their CHA and choose races which boost stats. Personally I don't like having any stat below 10, partly because I never remember the negative modifier. 25...

    Curse of the crimson thrones to easy?

    We started this and made it through the first "boss" fight with Mr. Lamb. It probably depends on your party and luck to make it easy or difficult. Our group has 7 members. You'd think with 7 people we'd have walked all over them. In fact, we had a rough time at least through middle. We are...

    Pathfinder 1E What are your Pathfinder houserules?

    I'm not sure I'd call this house rules. In one case it is an exploit, maybe you'd even call it cheating if not for the DM knowing I was doing it. In 2 games with different groups they apparently don't like separate initiative for PC's and their pets. So, in one group my animal companion acts...

    Urban Kingmaker

    I think this subject came up here some months ago, but I don't remember how long ago and maybe it was RPG.net. Archaeologists and their entourage could show up. This of course has the problem that they are excavating, sort of the opposite, but maybe their work can then be cooped by a group who...

    Letters of Transit--FRINGE Season IV/AWWP #19

    I assumed this episode was one of those one-shots that has no impact on the story as a whole. Or to put it another way, back to what we expected next week, more fighting the guy with the scarred face.
