Pathfinder Roleplaying Game
Bestiary 2 (OGL)
From Paizo Publishing

Go beyond goblins with an army of fantasy’s most fearsome foes! Bestiary 2 presents hundreds of different creatures for use in the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Within this collection of creatures you’ll find undead dragons and mischievous gremlins, shrieking banshees and unstoppable titans, the infamous jabberwock, and so much more! Yet not all these monsters need to be foes, as new breeds of otherworldly guardians, living shadows, and vampires all might take up adventure’s call. In addition, new rules for customizing and advancing monsters and an expanded glossary of creature abilities ensure that you’ll be prepared to challenge your heroes wherever adventure takes them!

The Pathfinder RPG Bestiary 2 is the second indispensable volume of monsters for use with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and serves as a companion to the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook and Pathfinder RPG Bestiary. This imaginative tabletop game builds upon more than 10 years of system development and an Open Playtest featuring more than 50,000 gamers to create a cutting-edge RPG experience that brings the all-time best-selling set of fantasy rules into the new millennium.

The 320-page Pathfinder RPG Bestiary 2 includes:

• More than 300 different monsters
• Creatures both new and familiar, drawing upon the best-known beasts of legend, literature, and Pathfinder RPG adventures
• Challenges for any adventure and every level of play
• Hosts of new templates and variants, including simple templates for on-the-fly creature customization
• Numerous lists of monsters to aid in navigation, including lists by Challenge Rating, monster type, and habitat
• New rules for creating and running high-level menaces
• Expanded universal monster rules to simplify special attacks, defenses, and qualities
• New familiars, animal companions, and other allies
• And MUCH, MUCH MORE!

New Figures for the

Miniatures Game
by Privateer Press

Hordes: Trollbloods: Janissa Stonetide, $12.99
As implacable as the stone she commands, runeshaper Janissa Stonetide batters the enemies of the trollbloods by turning the very earth they tread upon against them. At her command, walls of stone spring up to block an enemy advance, the ground rumbles and shifts beneath a foe’s feet, and boulders crash down from the heavens to crush the life from those who stand against the United Kriels.

Hordes: Legion of Everblight: Nyss Hex Hunters, $49.99
Nyss hex hunters are blighted sorcerers who have forsaken the greater arcane mysteries to focus purely on the destructive aspects of magic. A unit of Nyss hex hunters can unleash hellish bolts of concentrated energy, reducing enemies to blight-scarred ruin in a matter of seconds, or slash them to ribbons with wickedly sharp enchanted blades called hex razors.

Hordes: Skorne: Venator Reiver Officer and Standard, $17.99
Having risen to prominence in the lowest of warrior castes, the Venator Reiver officer yearns to prove his caste as fanatically devoted to the Skorne cause as any other. When leading units of their brethren into battle, the Venator Reiver officer and standard bearer keep their Venators in tight formation, increasing the range and lethality of their gas-driven weapons. Such units can shred an enemy warbeast with as little as a single volley.

Hordes: Minions: Calaban the Grave Walker, $18.99
The monstrous gatorman warlock called Calaban the Grave Walker commands fearsome powers over life and death. With his bone staff in one hand and skull talisman in the other, Calaban can drain the life force from an enemy and then use the withered shell left behind as a conduit for his dark magic.

[Event] Labyrinth Lord Results 12/5/10

Due to short notice, we only had two players this first session... but then, the mightiest oak starts as a mere tiny little acorn, so a small start can be a good start!

The two adventurers, Madwarf "The Axe" (2nd level Dwarf) and Marlar (3rd level Elf) ventured into the Dungeons Beneath the Ruins of Xylarthen's Tower, within spitting distance of Haelyx, the second-largest of the Towns of the Wastelands.

Xylarthen was one of the local Wizard-Kings during the Thousand Year War that ruined the Realm. His tower was cast down by a great enemy, and he either died, fled, or was captured; the legends do not say. But the dungeons beneath the ruined tower have served as a home for bandits and monsters in the century since, and are said to still house a great deal of Xylarthen's wealth... and as our heroes were down to their last few pieces of gold, they wanted some of that wealth!

[Note: I used the maps from Jeff Rients' adventure, Under Xylarthen's Tower, but filled the rooms using the random Labyrinth Stocking Table on page 124 of the Labyrinth Lord book]

Encounters in the labyrinthine ruins included three hobgoblins; three morlocks; two adult albino apes and two whelps; six kobolds; an acid trap (singed the dwarf's beard, it did); three stirges (that caused more damage than all other monsters encountered together!); and a rune-covered doorknob that, when touched, teleported the victim to a "holding room", a location that no longer existed, as the room was on the 2nd level of the tower (nasty fall, that was)! Treasure recovered included more than 400 gp in gems, more than 2,500 silver pieces, a handful of copper pieces, and a few old weapons (liberated from their wielders), that when sold to the local traders were worth a few pieces of gold.

A fun time was had by all! We will be continuing our Labyrinth Lord adventures every Sunday, from noon to 5pm, here at Chimera Hobby Appleton. Feel free to drop in and play any time; character creation takes less than 10 minutes, and we even have dice, pencils, and character sheets for you to use.
