Pathfinder #9, #10

[stolisomancer]

Pathfinder is what happens when a bunch of fans of Dungeons & Dragons decide they aren't down with the new edition of the game and go off to do their own thing. The comic book series from Dynamite, by Jim Zub (Skullkickers) with art by Jake Bilbao and Sean Izaakse, is set early in the careers of the games' signature characters (a.k.a. the "iconics") as they deal with a number of problems in and around the city of Sandpoint.

Word from on high is that the iconic characters of Pathfinder should all be considered bisexual until further notice. Such appears to be the case here.


The adventurers went out to see what was making off with a farmer's sheep and ended up in a fight with a juvenile black dragon. A cave-in ended the fight prematurely, but not before it did some damage. Specifically, it bit Meri, a "Forlorn" elf and one of the party's front-line fighters. Kyra, a relatively new recruit and a cleric of Sarenrae, managed to keep Meri intact on the way back to town.






In the next issue, with no proof the dragon they fought is dead, the adventurers take on a new job dealing with a bandit camp outside town.

Yeah, and Pathfinder makes it even better, adding new classes, new abilities for existing classes, and the best part of it is most of the SRD online.

I've begun purchasing 3.0/3.5 books and older edition adventure modules to convert them to adventures later. (Got Castle Amber and The Dancing Hut of Baba Yaga, both fun and crazy dungeon adventures).

A lot of the third party races in the SRD are neat too: They have Two Headed Elves, Caterpillars which eventually turn into other insects, Animal people who used to be old and dying pets given a second chance at life with a magic potion, Sentient Skeletons, its awesome.
