The Book of Many Things Volumes 1 and 2 Kickstarter Live now!
The Book of Many Things Volume 2: Shattered Worlds
|
It’s dangerous to go alone, so step into adventure with a new collection of character options for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game.
The Book of Many Things Volume 2 is the latest endeavor to build fan requests from around the world. Inside is a compilation of races, classes, archetypes, and more drawn from different mediums and made playable. Recreate favorite heroes, villains, items, and spells, or blend ideas to create something that is entirely different. From large, overly tired cat people, to dragon-souled mercenaries skilled in mutagens and minor magic, the sky’s the limit. You could even be an outlaw, beast master, or shadow priest. So grab your gauntlet and magic fairy bottle. Check that you’ve remembered the monsters in your pocket, and break your limits as The Book of Many Things reaches for the stars. Currently features 11 races, 6 classes, 10 archetypes, 38 feats, spells, equipment and more! |
The Book of Many Things - October 2017 Update
The October update for the Book of Many Things is live. You can grab your copy at the Open Gaming Store, Drivethru RPG, or Paizo. Have something you've always wanted added to Pathfinder, but haven't seen it yet? Let us know here or on our Facebook page and we'll add it to a future update.
==General==
Layout has been changed and cleaned up to prepare for printing. The book now consists of chapters on Races, Classes, Archetypes and Class Options, Character Options, Magic, and Items and Equipment. Within individual chapters, divisions such as divine, eldritch, faerie, and mortal still exist to keep the themes of each and allow for further branching in the future (arcane, perhaps?)
Updated the art to the finished piece for the god blooded.
==Races==
Arbiters – A small, winged race of inevitables who study the effects of chaos on the material plane.
Leonin – Lion-like catfolk with supernatural ties to the sun.
==Classes==
Nature Warden – A druid/fighter hybrid who takes the forms of guardian spirits to protect their allies.
==Archetypes==
Bestial Warden – A warden who prefers to fight as an animal, rather than a guardian spirit.
Eldritch Archetypes – Updated energy blast to target AC and deal bludgeoning damage.
Life Warden – A warden who trades his guardian’s might for lay on hands and simple spellcasting.
Reliquary – An eldritch paladin archetype that takes on some aspects of occultists in order to seek out and destroy evil items.
==Character Options==
Multiclass Feats: Added feats for druid, gunslinger, monk, and warden
==Magic==
Updated Essence Spear and Essence Weapon invocations to better suit the updated eldritch archetypes.
==Items and Equipment==
Added the heir apparent capital expense items for the shepherd adventuring goal.
