Recently our friends over at Paizo sent us a little sneak peek of their upcoming "Pathfinder 2e Lost Omens: Tian Xia World Guide" and we made a video!

We're going to quickly go over some of the deities and religions here in the upcoming book.

I'm the last person who's in any position to give people grief about weirdly specific fetishes, but some of y'all are stacking kinks like you're trying to minmax your build in a tabletop RPG. Like, oh, it's an eight-foot-tall robot elf Catholic nun with a prehensile dick – what combination of third-party sourcebooks did it take to make that work? How many attacks per round does she get?

idk but she literally can't get lower than a 45 on grapple checks vs characters sized medium or smaller

My kinks and my D&D builds are very similar in that if the dungeon master limits me to a single non-core source I can't finish

Dear Chuck, do you have any DM tips for a fellow world's greatest author, who is pretty new to DMing Dungeons and/or Dragons?

Avatar

sure buckaroo as buckaroo DM for 33 years i have a few tips here you go

instead of obvious 'have fun' that everyone says (which is very important too) i will opt for this: make sure every encounter especially trot of combat is more than just ONE thing. if it is a battle against a flying manticore then put it on moving train. if it is chase put it during the town parade

sometimes combat is random but with an encounter that is more DESIGNED i always think of them as SET PIECES like from film. so maybe there is an underground lava temple but combat happens in room with levers that need to be held down to keep lava from rising, do players attack or hold lever? does each lever have a different lava speed value? does each lever have a lock with a different puzzle or key? trots like that

this also EVEN goes for just standard talks with characters they encounter. if talking to suspicious barkeep, give the barkeep TWO secrets but only one pertains to parties interests

so that is my advice, create encounters with at least two unique elements that create an unexpected cocktail for players

Got another round of maps here for you! For this one, I have a witch's hovel in the swamp. I've included both daytime and nighttime versions, and the drive link will have both the PNG images and the VTT files to import directly into your game. Hopefully you find some use for these!

If I had a nickel for every time a module has referenced a land of the ghouls not detailed in the module if the players go to a certain area, I'd have two nickels. It's not a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

Hey ya'll, I've decided to start slowly sharing the maps I make for my sessions so other people can get use out of it too! It's nothing too fancy. Everything I share will be things I've mocked up in Dungeondraft, a fantastic program I highly recommend if you make maps for your VTT. This first one is a small vampire manor. Secret doors are not marked, but can be easily placed in multiple locations.

I've not added lighting on this particular map, as it varies based on the time of day!

I'll try to post one or two of these a month as I go through past maps and clean them up a bit, and everything will be accessible from this shared file!
