Mythic Menagerie: Covens of Chaos

Double, Double, Toil and Trouble

From the Norns of Norse myth to Hansel and Gretel’s tormentor—from Baba Yaga in her flying mortar to the Blair Witch—the hideous (and hideously dangerous) crone features prominently in folklore and legend. Powerful, ugly, and able to band together to increase their power, hags are an iconic—but often underutilized—foe.

Mythic Menagerie: Covens of Chaos provide an assortment of new hags from CR 3 to CR 15, along with insight into the motivations of these terrible creatures, expanded powers for hag covens, and a range of items, feats, and spells used by hags individually and as covens. Send your players into the wilderness at their peril!

Each volume in the Mythic Menagerie series presents a small set of monsters tied to a single theme, but spread over a range of CRs.

The Genius Guide to the Godling Ascendant

Drawn from the Might of the Heavens Themselves

From the heroes of Greek myth to the annals of fantasy fiction, the god-touched have fired our imagination. Where The Genius Guide to the Godling introduced this archetype to gaming, and The Genius Guide to Mystic Godlings expanded it, The Genius Guide to the Godling Ascendant now builds further upon the popular character type. This meaty title expands the classes even further, with rules for using godling abilities to create exemplar monsters, new ways for characters with non-godling classes to represent scions of immortal power, and new divine traits, ascendancies, scion talents, and feats for the four godling classes. All of that, along with new ways to introduce the concept of godlings into your campaign.

The Genius Guide series of products introduces new possibilities to your Pathfinder or OGL campaign and gives everyone at the table a chance to expand the horizons of the game and create adventures that are truly fantastic.

#1 with a Bullet Point: 2 Options for the Leadership Feat

1 idea, 1 page, 1 dollar

Sidekicks and secondary characters are a staple not just of fantasy, but of virtually every fictional genre—but does the Leadership feat really enable the sort of secondary characters your group needs? #1 with a Bullet Point: 2 Options for the Leadership Feat gives you two new ways to benefit from Leadership, eschewing the unbalancing cohort and annoying legion of low-level followers in favor of characters that add real mechanical and flavor benefits to the game. If you haven’t checked out our #1 with a Bullet Point items yet, why not give this one a try? Seriously, what do you have to lose? (Just a dollar!)

Each title in the #1 with a Bullet Point series brings you a short, sharp batch of mechanics on a single, focused topic. The concept is simple: Strip away the fluff and the extras to bring you one idea, in one page, for one dollar. #1 with a Bullet Point products are usually released in addition to SGG’s normal weekly product.

Codex Draconis: White Terrors of the North

The most fearsome creature in fantasy is now a little easier on the GM

Masters of glacial wastelands and rime-covered peaks, white dragons are capricious, cunning, and undeniably treacherous. From the smallest kobold tribe to the mighty frost giant Jarls, white dragons command obedience and tribute from all in their demesne. No other dragon better uses its environment to its advantage.

Like all dragons, though, the white dragon is as fearsome to the GM as it is to the heroes, requiring substantial preparation to bring into the game, especially given its broad range of age categories, CRs, and options—unless, of course, the GM has Codex Draconis: White Terrors of the North.

The Codex Draconis series of products gives you stat blocks, options, and alternatives to add dragons across all age categories and CRs to your game with a minimum of fuss and effort.

The Genius Guide to the Mosaic Mage

A colorful class that puts the magic back into magic

Traditional wizards find magic in books, sorcerers in blood, and bards in music. The most powerful magical creatures of the Material Plane—dragons—find magic in color. Like dragons, the mosaic mage eschews traditional schools of magic, drawing instead on associations of color. This gives them unique access to combinations of abilities—such as the evocation of fire alongside healing abilities—that are often the envy of other spellcasting classes.

The mosaic mage gives you a spellcaster whose relationship with, and access to, magic gives it a unique flavor and very different style of play—and The Genius Guide to the Mosaic Mage gives you everything you need to integrate this colorful class into your campaign. Put a bit of magic back into your magic!

The Genius Guide to Races of Fire and Fury

Seen your share of elves and dwarves and orcs?

The breath of dragons. A tool of the gods. The instrument of demonic fury and everlasting torture of the sinful. Fire is the most awe-inspiring element, and it has been a source of fear and fascination since the dawn of its discovery. The Genius Guide to Races of Fire and Fury presents a trio of new fantasy races suitable for use as player characters or NPCs. These races share a common trait of having an association with heat or flame.

Each of the new races comes from a culture with its own unique perspective on life and their place in the world—a set of cultural norms GMs and players can use to understand how the group would fit into a campaign and build characters that fit within (or purposely stretch themselves beyond) those expectations.

Like any good rules expansion, The Genius Guide to Races of Fire and Fury introduces new possibilities to your Pathfinder campaign and gives everyone at the table a chance to expand the horizons of the game and create adventures that are truly fantastic.

Ultimate Options: Power of the Ninja

The mystic power of stealth, deception, and the dark arts

The very archetype of the mystic spy or assassin: A shadowy figure as much a master of the dark arts as an outlaw. From the Hashsh’shin to the Sicarii, the black-clad assassin clans of Japanese lore to the fanciful depictions of Wuxia films, the ninja is an icon of fantasy and pop culture—ironic, for a creature that lives by secrecy and a mastery of deception and disguise.

Ultimate Options: Power of the Ninja presents 50 new tricks and master tricks for the ninja, along with 8 new ninja-related feats and four variant ninja classes. With this broad set of new resources you can expand the role of ninja-style assassins in your campaign, or leave behind the Asian-themed trappings to integrate the stealthy, deceptive mystic spy concept in a manner that best suits your campaign setting.

The Ultimate Options series of short products focuses on topics introduced in the Ultimate Magic book for Pathfinder, expanding options for players using that book.

The Genius Guide to 110 Spell Variants Volume 3

When it comes to magic, more choices are always better!

A ghost step variation on feather step. A jester’s jail variant of fool’s forbiddance. A version of campfire wall that protects an entire barony. Small changes to a spell—an alteration in target, duration, casting time, energy type, or so on—can greatly affect its theme, its atmosphere, and its appropriateness to different classes, giving you something with a fresh feel, but without inventing new spells from the ground up.

Although a vast number of spells are available in the game’s core rulebooks, many GMs and players have an insatiable desire for more options. In many cases it’s not necessary to create new spell options from scratch, since a few minor changes to an existing spell can create something with a very different feel or impact on game play. Following up the variants in the highly successful The Genius Guide to 110 Variant Spells and The Genius Guide to Another 110 Variant Spells, the 110 spell variants in this tome are based on the idea that you can make a lot of different effects by making minor changes to how a spell works, by combining effects of multiple spells, or by mixing a spell and magic item or even a class ability.

Ultimate Options: Grit and Gunslingers

Grit, gumption, and a steady hand

D’Artangan. Jonah Hex. The Man with No Name. The gunslinger is the archetypical hero who pits his nerve, mettle, and skill at arms against outlaws, bandits, and the bullies of lawless lands. In many ways the gunslinger is a natural evolution of the heroes of older eras, a direct outgrowth of the black knight, highwayman, and wandering martial artist.

Ultimate Options: Grit and Gunslingers presents over 30 new abilities for the gunslinger, along with 17 new grit-related feats, an alternate gunslinger class, and new grit and gunslinger-related rules. With this broad set of new resources you can more easily add Three-Musketeers-inspired characters to your campaign or even expand the grit rules to non-firearms-using characters or settings.

The Ultimate Options series of short products focuses on topics introduced in the Ultimate Magic book for Pathfinder, expanding options for players using that book.

Barbarians are people too—and they need feats! Not just access to the same feats regular old fighters use, but feats that make barbarians what they are truly meant to be. #1 with a Bullet Point: 8 Barbarian Feats gives you eight feats that replicate the abilities and traits of the classic pulp-era fictional barbarians, whose stories are a principal inspiration for fantasy roleplaying games. So good-bye Combat Expertise, hello Great Thews, Sudden Rage, and Panther-like Grace! If you haven’t checked out our #1 with a Bullet Point items yet, why not give this one a try?

Mythic Menagerie: Demonic Harlots

Kiss your soul goodbye!

Demons live to subvert, using temptation and guile to prey upon the sin and weakness of mortals. And few mortal weaknesses are so open to temptation—few sins so open to exploitation—as that of lust. The succubus is one of the most insidious of demonkind, exploiting mortal frailty to further demonic agendas and spread woe and discord.

Mythic Menagerie: Demonic Harlots provide an assortment of variant succubi (and incubi) from CR 6 to CR 14, along with insight into the mind of temptress demons and a range of items, feats, and spells used extensively by the consorts of the Abyss. So draw the shades, light some candles, and kiss your soul goodbye. A pack of demonic harlots is waiting to serve your every imaginable GM need!

Each volume in the Mythic Menagerie series presents a small set of monsters tied to a single theme, but spread over a range of CRs.

Krazy Kragnar’s Magic Staff Emporium

Sticks and stones may break my bones. Well, sticks, mostly. . .

Used chariots. Surplus alchemy. Black market magic. The canny trickster, con artist, and merchant goblin known as Krazy Kragnar has dabbled in many businesses. Now his most ambitious and upscale project to date has opened its doors: Krazy Kragnar’s Magic Staff Emporium. With clients including dwarf gesith mages from the Rune Peaks, tormentor battle-cursers from Ankhara, secretive shadow-bedreven from the Cairnwood, and adventurous archmages of all stripes, can you afford not to check out his wares?

Krazy Kragnar’s Magic Staff Emporium features a new system for lesser, standard, and greater staffs, along with rules and feats for crafting these items and 10 new staffs, with all three variants for each.

Each Krazy Kragnar short product focuses on a particular variety of adventuring gear, mundane or magical, providing a range of related items. The topics are often eclectic, but they are treated in depth.

Loot 4 Less: Things That Make You Go Boom [compilation]

Isn’t it time you loaded up on some loot?

Magic items are for the cool kids—you know, mid-level and higher characters. Low-level characters might be able to afford the odd potion or scroll, but they don’t have the dough for interesting, permanent magic items. Right?

Wrong. Loot 4 Less: Things That Make You Go Boom gives you an incredible array of magic items costing 2,500 gp or less: rings (there are 30 of them), rods (8), and arms and armor (12, plus 26 new special abilities). And it’s all introduced with a Foreword by Erik Mona.

This product compiles content from three previously published Loot 4 Less titles: Armor and Weapons, Pretty, Pretty Rings, and Hot Rods. Although there have been a few minor revisions (and it contains a new foreword), there is no new material in this product.

The Loot 4 Less line of products focuses on creative, diverse, and useful items costing 2,500gp or less. In addition to their interest and value to low- and mid-level characters, these items—always reusable; never charged or use-once—give lower-level spellcasters something to craft and help differentiate the tactics and treasure hoards of their opponents.

Adventurer’s Handbook [expanded compilation]

Stuff people want to play

That’s how Sean K Reynolds, Paizo Publishing’s Developer for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, describes the contents of the Adventurer’s Handbook in his Introduction to this book. He also says that the Genius Guides are “fun, playable, and of excellent quality.” If the people who make Pathfinder are saying that, shouldn’t you check the material out for yourself?

Written by industry veterans and Pathfinder contributors Owen K.C. Stephens and Stan!, this book contains 5 new base classes, 47 new spells, and 98 new feats, as well as new bloodlines, arcane specialties, and domains for spellcasters. The death mage is a spellcaster dedicated to the powers of death and decay without focusing on necromancy. Feats of battle give you gimmicks and tricks to help your combat specialist stand out from the crowd. Ice magic features spells and character options that make wintry spellcasters as versatile and dangerous as any fireball-flinger. The war master is a martial warrior who is a leader of men, but maintains his own ability to kick ass. And that’s just a small sampling of the book’s content!

This product adds new material to the content from ten previously published Genius Guide titles: The Genius Guide to the Archon, The Death Mage, The Magus, The Shadow Assassin, The War Master, Feats of Battle, Feats of Spellcasting, Feats of Subterfuge, Earth Magic, and Ice Magic.

Codex Draconis: Red Tyrants of the Mountains

The most fearsome creature in fantasy is now a little easier on the GM

With names like Smaug, Glaurung, and Vermithrax, red dragons are the big bads—what we think of when we read the word after the ampersand. Icons of evil, they are the pinnacle ambition for many a heroic adventurer, and the crowning encounter for many a campaign. In game terms, though, that lofty status comes with a price: a powerful red dragon can be the most complex opponent for a GM to prepare and play. The red dragon is as fearsome to the GM as it is to the heroes, requiring substantial preparation to bring into the game, especially given its broad range of age categories, CRs, and options—unless, of course, the GM has Codex Draconis: Red Tyrants of the Mountains.

The Codex Draconis series of products gives you stat blocks, options, and alternatives to add dragons across all age categories and CRs to your game with a minimum of fuss and effort.

Ultimate Options: New Arcane Discoveries

The true masters of magic are masters once again!

Sorcerers gain magic through no special effort, without skill or understanding. You cannot master what you do not understand. We must study every word, every gesture, to summon magic. With that study, comes understanding. We are the true masters of magic.

The wizard, in gaming as well as fiction, develops his mastery of magic through intense and lifelong arcane study. While this gives the Pathfinder wizard considerable versatility, in a practical sense there is little a wizard can do that a sorcerer cannot—and the alchemist and witch have powers a wizard cannot duplicate at all. It was only with the advent of arcane discoveries, in Ultimate Magic, that the wizard regained its status as the true devotee and master of the arcane. But Ultimate Magic offers only ten arcane discoveries.

Ultimate Options: New Arcane Discoveries presents 30 new arcane discoveries for the wizard (along with two new wizard archetypes)—increasing to four-fold the number of discoveries available in Pathfinder’s Ultimate Magic. With these discoveries, a wizard has dozens of options for developing powers and capabilities other arcane classes cannot duplicate.

The Ultimate Options series of short products focuses on topics introduced in the Ultimate Magic book for Pathfinder, expanding options for players using that book.

Adventurer’s Atlas: Outpost Qether

Step out to the wild frontier

Few come to the lonely outpost of Qether willingly. It is the usual custom to assign the isolated duty to debtors and criminals. A few hardy farmers have settled the area, drawn by promises of cheap and plentiful land, while others come because adventure attracts the foolhardy and, between the border, the hobgoblins, the elves, and the sea, there are always adventures—or suicide missions—to be undertaken.

Adventurer’s Atlas: Outpost Qether details a lonely outpost on the border between two hostile nations. It’s a site replete with intrigue, mystery, and potential for adventure, but it’s also stable enough to serve as a sort of “home base” for characters of a range of levels. Easy to insert into virtually any fantasy campaign, with 20 pages of geography, history, NPCs, descriptions, maps, and adventure and adventure seeds, it’s a great site for a short stopover, an extended stay, or the touchpoint for an entire campaign.

The Adventurer’s Atlas series of short products provides fully fleshed-out locales rich with potential for conflict and access to mystery and adventure that can easily be sited in any fantasy campaign.

Advanced Options: More Cavaliers’ Orders

Even more options for history’s greatest warriors

The cavalier: A mounted knight whose power comes as much from the conviction of his ideals, the oaths that he swears, and the challenges he makes as it does from sheer force of arms. Introduced in the Pathfinder Advanced Player’s Guide, the cavalier is perhaps gaming’s closest representation of the mounted knight of the high middle ages—the classic image of the crusader, feudal lord, or champion of the joust.

Advanced Options: More Cavaliers’ Orders follows SGG’s Advanced Options: Cavaliers’ Orders to present seven new orders for cavaliers to be part of (along with a number of feats), greatly expanding the orders available to cavaliers from the Pathfinder Advanced Player’s Guide. Although the two books work well together, nothing in them overlaps, and players do not need the first product to use everything in this book.

Advanced Options: Extra Evolutions

Aladdin and his genie. The king and the witch Zoulvisia. Diabolists, dragon-riders, and voodoo houngans—even Paul Bunyan and Babe the Big Blue Ox. The summoner draws his might from an otherworldy ally—sometimes even a slave—to take a mythic place in the tales of his world. And the conceptual possibilities are endless.

Advanced Options: Extra Evolutions presents two new eidolon base forms—the ooze and the hut—for summoner characters, along with 38 new evolutions, dramatically increasing those available to summoners from the Pathfinder Advanced Player’s Guide. With these new options, an eidolon can become a brass elephant with a built-in howdah, a horrific mass of shifting flesh, or a legendary animal spirit that can draw on any of nature’s natural defenses.

The Genius Guide to Expanded Favored Class Options

Sometimes a skill point or an extra hp just doesn’t cut it

Favored class options from the Advanced Players Guide are a great way of adding flavor to particular class and race combinations. An elven cavalier’s mount toughens with extra hit points. A dwarven barbarian gains extra rages. A halfling rogue’s crits get better with her favored weapon, while a half-orc witch’s familiar gains more skills. But the Advanced Player’s Guide doesn’t hit every combination, and there are many class and race pairings that are still stuck with the standard +1 skill point or +1 hit point.

The Genius Guide to Expanded Favored Class Options fills in the holes, giving you a flavorful favored class option for every class and race combination. But that’s not all. It also gives you a handful of “universal” favored class options, which you can use to add flavor to any class and race combination. And it expands beyond the core rules to other Super Genius products, covering all the classes SGG has published with favored class options for each core race.

Sorcerer’s Options: Beyond Bloodlines

Wizards learn magic. We are magic.

Wizards study. Clerics call upon their gods. Even witches and bards draw upon power from an external source. The sorcerer is unique among spellcasters, pulling power from an innate and evergrowing pool of magic within him. The sorcerer’s legacy. Mystic heritage. Special destiny.

This legacy is given form through the sorcerer’s bloodline—an awesome, flexible, flavorful element of the sorcerer class. So much so that nearly all new rules or variants for sorcerers take the form of new sorcerous bloodlines.

That’s fine as far as it goes. But these heroes have magic itself coursing through their veins. If ever there was a class ripe for innovative and interesting abilities, archetypes, quirks, and options, it’s the sorcerer.

The Sorcerer’s Options series of short products provides new concepts, options, and mechanics for Pathfinder sorcerers.

Codex Draconis: Green Menace of the Woodlands

Cunning and honey-tongued, the green dragon schemes with a long view, often taking decades to bring its plots to fruition.

Ultimate Options: New Magus Arcana

Swords and sorcery: together again!

Garion. Rand al’Thor. Elric of Melniboné. Even Gandalf, the prototypical adventuring mage, carried the sword Glamdring to good effect. Throughout fantasy, the warrior mage, able to swing swords and cast spells with equal skill, is one of the genre’s most common tropes—but not one that’s easy to implement in most fantasy games. But with the advent of the magus class in Ultimate Magic, the concept is now workable in the Pathfinder roleplaying game.

Ultimate Options: New Magus Arcana presents over 30 new abilities for the magus. With this broad set of new material magi can fight with 2-handed weapons, go sword-and-board with a shield, wield two weapons and still cast spells, or even become a spontaneous spellcaster similar to a sorcerer.

#1 with a Bullet Point: 10 Feats of Hammer and Thunder

Hammers. Thunder. They’re on every gamer’s mind right about now, and for good reason: They’re icons—nay, archetypes—of power and myth. (Oh, and there’s some sort of movie out.) 10 Feats of Hammer and Thunder brings you, well, 10 feats. Relating to those archetypes of power and myth.

Loot 4 Less: Bell, Book, & Candle

Ring, read, or light up!

Wondrous items add true wonder to the range of magical objects characters can collect, and bells, books, and candles are among the most iconic of magical items from folklore and myth. Loot 4 Less: Bell, Book, & Candle brings you 17 new items sure to add an element of mystery and atmosphere to your game.

The Loot 4 Less line of short products focuses on creative, diverse, and useful items costing 2,500gp or less. In addition to their interest and value to low- and mid-level characters, these items—always reusable; never charged or use-once—give lower-level spellcasters something to craft and help differentiate the tactics and treasure hoards of their opponents.

The Genius Guide to 110 Variant Spells

You can never have too many spells

An iceball variation on fireball. A pack tactics version of haste. A touch of frailty variant on touch of idiocy. Small changes to a spell—an alteration in target, duration, casting time, energy type, or so on—can greatly affect its theme, its atmosphere, and its appropriateness to different classes, giving you something with a fresh feel, but without inventing new spells from the ground up.

Although a vast number of spells are available in the game’s core rulebooks, many GMs and players have an insatiable desire for more options. In many cases it’s not necessary to create new spell options from scratch, since a few minor changes to an existing spell can create something with a very different feel or impact on game play. The 110 spell variants in The Genius Guide to 110 Variant Spells are based on the idea that you can make a lot of different effects with fairly minor changes to how a spell works, by combining effects of multiple spells, or by mixing a spell and magic item or even a class ability.

Anachronistic Adventurers: The Enforcer

Adrift on the Seas of Time

Skilled at the use of force, calm under fire, and able to adapt and overcome, the enforcer is the epitome of the modern combatant: soldier, mercenary, SWAT operative, mafia hit man, or even martial arts champion. As adept with the tools of personal combat as most people are with the TV remote, the enforcer is comfortable with anything from an M1911 to a mini-gun.

Or, when stranded in a primitive land and being rushed by orcs, a morningstar.

The modern combatant stuck in a primitive, fantasy-themed world is a common trope in adventure fiction, especially the “planetary romances” of early fantasy. Each volume in the Anachronistic Adventurers series examines a modern character type in relation to a typical fantasy setting, complete with classes, equipment, feats, and other relevant rules.

Mythic Menagerie: Oceans of Blood

Who knows what horrors lurk beneath the waves?

From The Odyssey and Jason and the Argonauts to The Poseidon Adventure and Jaws, adventures at sea are rife with exploration and horror. We are creatures of the land, and the threats from the sea always have a slightly alien quality. In Mythic Menagerie: Oceans of Blood, that quality often bites, tears, and rends.

In a setting where fireballs are common and raise dead is an option —where experienced players can identify an aboleth from a single vague sentence and quote the differences between merfolk and sahuagin by heart—it can sometimes be hard to capture the unique, alien feel of an aquatic environment. So more than any locale, the untold depths of the vast oceans are begging to be inhabited by new, strange, and (for player and character alike) previously unknown threats. And that’s enough to make any GM smile.

Each volume in the Mythic Menagerie series presents a small set of monsters tied to a single theme, but spread over a range of CRs.

The Genius Guide to the Time Warden

Time waits for no man—or does it?

The 4th dimension. A philosophical construct. Nature’s way of making sure everything doesn’t happen at once. Time heals all wounds, but also knells the death of all things, from peasants to emperors to the very earth itself. We are all in its thrall; time waits for no man.

Or does it? The time warden is a master of chronothurgy—the magic of manipulating time—and a self-appointed guardian of the timeline. The Genius Guide to the Time Warden gives you everything you need to play this time-bending character class.

The Genius Guide to Fire Magic

The first magic—and the power of civilization

Dragons breathe it. Demons revel in it. At the stake, it cleanses the souls of witches. And the fireball is perhaps the game’s most iconic spell, its acquisition a milestone in the arcane caster’s career.

But it is also the power of civilization; the key element of the hearth, the forge, the kiln, and the lantern. It holds the night at bay.

It produces both light and smoke, it can forge or melt, and it cooks or chars. Fire is an invaluable tool, and in the hands of a spellcaster it can be so much more than a burning globe. But it is also a dangerous weapon that can turn on its master.

The Genius Guide to Fire Magic examines fire and its kin (smoke, steam, molten glass, and so on), providing new options for spellcasters who want to play with fire.

Advanced Options: Cavaliers’ Orders

History’s greatest warriors—now with more options!

The cavalier: A mounted knight whose power comes as much from the conviction of his ideals, the oaths that he swears, and the challenges that he makes as it does from sheer force of arms. Introduced in the Pathfinder Advanced Player’s Guide, the cavalier is perhaps gaming’s closest representation of the mounted knight of the high middle ages—the classic image of the crusader, feudal lord, or champion of the joust.

Advanced Options: Cavaliers’ Orders presents six new orders for cavaliers to be part of, doubling the number of orders available to cavaliers from the Pathfinder Advanced Player’s Guide.

Mythic Menagerie: Kith of the Harpy Queen

You’ll need more than a bit of wax in your ears

The harpy is a classic monster of legend and lore. Initially Grecian wind spirits created to punish the wicked, their myth has slowly evolved into the bird women that have plagued heroes in countless roleplaying games. This book expands the role of the harpy into something more then a simple monster whose song lures men to their doom. Within these pages harpies have adapted to new terrains, sizes, mystic influences, and situations. We present new options to allow harpy-based encounters to haunt overconfident adventurers who think all they need is some wax in their ears.

Also included are harpy-related magic items, spells, and feats.

Codex Draconis: Black Lords of the Marsh

The most fearsome creature in fantasy is now a little easier on the GM

Cruel, merciless, and conniving, the black dragon rules a decaying domain of marshland and swamp. Those who dwell near their homes live in constant fear, for the black dragon’s reign of terror and intimidation is as corrosive as its terrible breath weapon. But like all dragons, the black dragon is as fearsome to the GM as it is to the heroes, requiring substantial preparation to bring into the game, especially given its broad range of age categories, CRs, and options—unless, of course, the GM has Codex Draconis: Black Lords of the Marsh.

The Codex Draconis series of products gives you stat blocks, options, and alternatives to add dragons across all age categories and CRs to your game with a minimum of fuss and effort.

Because of space limitations, time restrictions, and playtesting needs, that PDF did not include alternative racial powers or alternative favored class options, such as are presented for the core races in the Advanced Player’s Guide. In an effort to ensure our new races have the same support as the core races of the game, this short, free supplement expands the rules of Wind and Wing to include new racial options.

Advanced Options: Alchemists’ Discoveries

She blinded me with science!

From Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein to The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, classic works of fiction lifted the concept of the alchemist from the Roger Bacon and the natural philosphers of the medieval world to the mad scientist and crazed inventors of movies and RPGs. The Pathfinder Advanced Player’s Guide has now integrated that classic concept into the Pathfinder roleplaying game.

Advanced Options: Alchemists’ Discoveries presents 29 new discoveries, including 7 tied to two new forms of alchemy: spagyric devices and metamorphosis. With this broad set of new options, alchemists can make rockets, create homunculi, sniff out their foes, craft waxwork wings, and even transmute lead into gold.

The typical fantasy races are as familiar to the modern audience as private eyes, foreign spies, and femme fatales were fifty years ago. Why settle for the status quo when your campaign cries out for something truly fantastic? The Genius Guide to Races of Wind and Wing presents a trio of new fantasy races suitable for use as player characters or NPCs. These races share a common trait of being able to fly to some degree: a small connection but one not found in any of the standard races.

Like any good rules expansion, The Genius Guide to Races of Wind and Wing introduces new possibilities to your Pathfinder campaign and gives everyone at the table a chance to expand the horizons of the game and create adventures that are truly fantastic.

Feats of Runic Might II

Ancient alphabets whose origins remain shrouded in mystery

Wizards, shamans, and warriors use runes to imbue the places, items, and people on which they are inscribed with fantastic powers. Some say runes hold the power to foretell the future and even bring the dead back to life.

The Genius Guide to Feats of Runic Might presented runes that grant magic powers to any character class in a manner that makes them easy to add to any campaign. The idea proved popular enough to merit this follow-up product, which provides new Runic feats and adds the new mechanic of Runebound feats.

This book is fully compatible with The Genius Guide to Feats of Runic Might, but includes all the rules you need to use it on its own.

The Genius Guide to Simple Monster Templates

Keep those players guessing!

A manticore is exactly the guardian you wanted for the Lore Vault of the City of Refuge—but if you’re running a CR 9 adventure, a CR 5 manticore won’t work. You could advance them or add more monsters, but that risks tedium or takes a ton of prep time you’d rather spend on something else.

Or, you can just tack on the “mighty” simple template, which takes less than a minute.

Simple templates require minimal rewriting of a creature’s stat block. Though they sometimes sacrifice a bit of mechanical fidelity, they’re fast and easy to apply, stretching the useful range of your favorite monsters. The Genius Guide to Simple Monster Templates gives you six options to boost the CR of the monsters you need, create new threats your players aren’t expecting, and multiply the usefulness of the hundreds of monsters already at your fingertips. Having a two-headed template doesn’t replace the ettin, but it does allow for two-headed dragons, twin-skulled canines, and even freakish multicranial golems. The simplicity of the templates keeps them from being a chore to add, and they let you create new foes almost on the fly.

Krazy Kragnar’s Black Market Magic Items

The canny goblin is back in business . . .

Always quick to make a deal, take a risk, and turn a profit, the goblin known as Krazy Kragnar first came to prominence when he began a line of used-chariots yards (the merchandise for which is detailed in The Genius Guide to Loot 4 Less Volume 7: Krazy Kragnar’s Used Chariots). When that operation was shut down by angry dwarves, he turned to a new business plan with Krazy Kragnar’s Surplus Alchemy Shop. Buying post-dated alchemist’s fire and remaindered thunderstones turned out to be savvy trade, and soon Kragnar was dealing in fully legitimate alchemical materials. Kragnar set up a large shop and bought a house in the Silk District of the city of Refuge.

In return for going entirely legit, Kragnar got to watch the town guard do nothing as his Alchemy Shop went up in green flames after a patron carelessly tossed a still-hot tindertwig into the half-off bin. The guard claimed the prismatic smoke pouring out of the windows was too dangerous to risk getting a bucket brigade near the flaming shop. Kragnar strongly suspected the human guard simply didn’t like seeing a goblin make more money in a week than a guard earned in a year. When the flames, peals of thunder, and random bursts of lightning and acid rain finally subsided around Kragnar’s shop, the goblin was bankrupt and no longer welcome in the homes of wealthier patrons.

It was, thought Kragnar, a sign.

Turning to some old friends who didn’t care about his current circumstances, Kragnar quickly began building a new financial empire. This one paid more attention to high profitability and customer demand, and less to the rules of tariffs, taxes, recorded transactions, and craft-guild rules. In short, Kragnar joined a Goblin Market and started selling black market magic items. And in a matter of months, the canny goblin was once more rolling in coin . . .

The Genius Guide to Divine Archetypes

It’s not just for clerics anymore

Adepts, shamans, clerics, and paladins have always been the principal channels of divine power. But are they the only characters touched by their gods? Warriors trained to face supernatural evils—mad prophets who call upon powers no one understands—and failed priests who still recall a few of their prayers of healing and discovery. How can you bring these fantasy icons to your game?

The Genius Guide to Divine Archetypes lets you give spellcasting classes new forms of divine magic—or add divine power to classes that normally lack it. It does this through the use of archetype packages—a way to replace a set of related class abilities in a base class with new powers (in this case, tied to divine magic). These archetype packages can change how magic works for a character, add an element of divine spellcasting to characters who normally lack it, or grant wholly new divine powers to characters based on the flavor of their faith.

The power of conviction

The grim warlord who conquers cities for the god of war, the battlefield hospitaller who escorts healers for the god of healing, and the insane pyromaniac determined to burn the world for the god of madness and fire: the templar is an agent of divine will. A divine warrior—an agent and crusader for his god—the templar’s faith girds him against the plots of heretics, infidels, and pagans as he pursues his holy duty. While paladins are constrained by a rigid ethical code and clerics have broader religious duties, the templar is driven only by his holy (or unholy) mission.

Mythic Menagerie: Rise of the Goblinoids

The most prolific fantasy species—now a threat beyond CR2!

The most prolific monstrous species in most fantasy campaigns, the goblin is left in the dust after CR2—until now. With foes ranging from CR 1 to CR 16, the gobliniod can now be a terror—and an interesting, engaging foe—for the breadth of an entire campaign. Indeed, Mythic Menagerie: Rise of the Goblinoids can help create an entire campaign arc: a literal rise of the goblinoids. Perhaps many of the new races presented here are being seen for the first time, and their evils big and small are now spreading across the known world. Why are oni in goblin forms banding together? What has driven hidden goblin subraces out of their islands, forests, and underground caves? Whatever is causing it, the heroes had better put an end to it before the rising tide of goblinoids washes civilization from the face of the world!

Each volume in the Mythic Menagerie series presents a small set of monsters tied to a single theme, but spread over a range of CRs.

And magic isn’t the only source of crucial information. Knowledge skills allow characters of all classes to have the knowhow to solve problems. At high levels, Knowledge skills themselves can seem almost magical, with characters possessing fine points on the most minutiae of details.

The Genius Guide to Exalted Domains of Storms and Savagery

Untamed and primal

No class has a deeper or more powerful bond to the gods than the cleric—a bond exemplified by the cleric’s chosen domains. Even among clerics, however, some embrace a bond that goes deeper than others’, becoming paragons of a single aspect of their deities’ being. These clerics sacrifice the flexibility of two domains to dedicate themselves wholly to a single Exalted domain. Heretics, honored paragons, renegades, or just foes with a little surprise for your players, Exalted domain clerics inject something new into your campaign.

The Genius Guide to Exalted Domains of Storms and Savagery focuses on the domains most often associated with gods of the primal forces of nature, such as storms, plants, animals, and fire. If you want to create a specially blessed defender of the forests, an untamed master of flame, or a sage speaker for the sun and moon, these Exalted domains provide a quick, easy, balanced method for doing so.

The Genius Guide to Exalted Domains series presents Exalted domain options for clerics of every conceivable background.

Witches in fantasy fiction have a long tradition of amazing and frightening powers to aid friends, annoy pests, or destroy foes—from the magic feasts of Circe and the dragon-form of Sleeping Beauty’s evil queen to the flying monkeys of the Wicked Witch of the West. Now, with the introduction of the witch class in the Pathfinder Advanced Player’s Guide, the spellcaster who has an entirely separate pool of power from which to draw has become a fully integrated and balanced part of the game mechanics.

Advanced Options: Witches’ Hexes presents 29 new hexes, major hexes, and grand hexes for witches, more than doubling the options in the Advanced Player’s Guide. New options in offense, defense, aid, and utility allow a player to focus a witch entirely on one style of hex, or make each choice a new and totally different element of a versatile character. To round things off, a few new hex-specific feats help witches bring even greater focus on their class’s unique set of powers.

The Genius Guide to The Dragonrider [revised]

Take to the skies in this revised edition—with Hero Builder files

From Pern to Pandora, the figure of the dragon-riding hero conjures images of power, freedom, leadership, and a unique bond with powerful ally. The dragonrider is a new core class for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, combat-oriented with minor arcane spellcasting ability, built around having a mystic bond with a true dragon that serves as a steed.

Dragonriders are heroic figures with the power to bond with dragons, gaining lifelong steeds, companions and allies. This bond is more than simply a close friendship, it is a mystic connection between dragonrider and dragon, creating a permanent link fueled by the arcane power inherent to all true dragons. In some realms, dragonriders are lesser nobility, much like knights, while in other they are the ultimate shock cavalry. In still others, they are oddities, individuals who have stumbled into a life-changing relationship. In all instances, they are powerful and respected.

The Genius Guide to The Dragonrider is a revised edition of a previous release, containing updates to the original based on errata and player feedback. It comes bundled with files for using the dragonrider with the Hero Builder software.

Pathfinder and OGL compatible
13 pages
$3.99
Designed by Owen K.C. Stephens
Revised May 2011
