Funny Things

Greetings, internet!

So, Sunday passed in a rather funny way.

As Sabah's player and I were walking to check her mail, Hec's player called to say that he couldn't make it.
That's okay - I can run the game with three players!

On the way to the store to get some food stuffs for the group, Ulic's player sent me a text. He wasn't showing up either.
Darn. Guess we'll inform Trinity's player...

She responded saying that she couldn't make it either.

And so, Sabah's player and I grabbed some lunch and headed back to our apartments (we're neighbors).

And that was how Sunday passed :)

Now, on to other business: why is this post tagged "Pathfinder?"

I've been following the business of the Vigilante class since the beginning of the playtest.
And it amuses me that pretty much every single post in the "Final Thoughts" board is negative (my opinion is in there as well, btw).

It seems to me that Paizo is on the verge of losing a lot of money if they don't change their thoughts on this particular class.
But, I also know just how staunchly RP fans defend things from their favorite publishers, even if they are flawed beyond reason.

So, more like a "snarky funny thing" here, I guess.

But, I do hope that Paizo learns from this experience. I still rather like some of the improvements from 3.X that they made, and would love to see the game continue.

Anyway, due to having my desk at work moved, posting is going to be slightly more difficult and/or later in the day than normal.

May have more for you all later this week.
Who knows?
Until then, may the dice fall in your favor :)

The Long-Awaited Pathfinder Homebrew

Hello dear readership!

Sorry to be slow to upload this, but better late than never, right?
For your perusal, as promised, I have some homebrewed material for Pathfinder that I've been sitting on for some time.

To begin here are:
Some Random Races.

This list includes:
tilli - a race of faeries you may-or-may-not have seen somewhere before...
gurao - a wolf-people from some stories I've written
xartyyl - hulking blue brutes from another dimension (I think I got the idea for them from a random generator)
yrsig - cruel fey that once enslaved the xartyyl
the betrayed - the undead descendants of a necromantic empire (a race of undead that are balanced for playing at 11RP!)
enderen - a race of spiritual parasites that cause mutation in their hosts
the Ulganish trio - three races that were engineered to excel at one particular role
terox - very powerful beings that were built to fight in apocalyptic battles (also, an exercise for me to see what the biggest race I could build was :D)
dormin - a race of half-ghosts (not complete, they were an exercise to see what the "cheapest" monstrous race I could build was)

None of the races are in a clear, readable format like you would find in a PHB or some such. Some of them are also missing some bits of lore or rules data. But, here they are just the same!

Next, a base class that I built to utilize what I felt were an untapped resource in the Pathfinder game: race points.

I present:
The Chimeric

The class is kind of like a mad scientist that develops mutations as they gain levels. Such are the risks of experimenting on oneself.
This has been looked over by folks at the Paizo boards, and got many good reviews. It just needs some actual testing now.

And that's all I have for the time being.

As a PSA, avoid spending money on Steam summer sales. They don't treat your wallet kindly.

No gaming on Sunday, which should allow me some time to work up some stuff for my players.

I think I might start up my series of player interviews this coming week.

Until then, may the dice fall in your favor :)
