Sixty pages of combined archetypes, alternate class features, and feats is a pretty weighty book unto itself. Just shy of 300 feats, spanning a further sixty pages, is hardly anything to sneeze at, either. And when you add a further sixty-five pages of magic items of all sorts, and well over 200 additional spells, you have a sourcebook of truly tit... [click here for more]
Magic Like You've Never Experienced It Before!
It's easy to feel like you've unlocked all the secrets of magic when you can simply flip through the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Core Rulebook and see every spell it has. The very nature of the game means that spells, and spellcasting,... [click here for more]
Reach New Heights of Depravity
It is the fond dream of nearly every gaming group to run an "evil campaign" some day. You know the one: instead of playing brave heroes out to save the day from dastardly villains, the party takes on the role of the evildoer, and, between trying to demonstrate how... [click here for more]
Be the Thing that Goes "Bump" in the Night
For years, the legend of the vampire has captivated the minds of mortals, and these dark stalkers of the night have become permanent fixtures of fantasy media and roleplaying games alike. But while vampires in novels, movies, and television each provid... [click here for more]
Patrons Like You've Never Seen Them Before
Wizards get their magic from studying tomes. Sorcerers inherit their magic from their parents. Clerics get their magic from their god. Druids get their magic from nature. And witches get their magic from an eldritch pact made with a supernatural patron&helli... [click here for more]
Master the Power of Fiends
For centuries, the idea of summoning otherworldly creatures and binding them to our will, or using them to perform powerful magic, has fascinated people of every culture. From fantasy games and movies, to famous plays, like Goethe's Faust, and even documents such as ... [click here for more]
Accessorize Your Magic
Few adventurers worry about whether or not their choice of boots match their armor, or whether or not a given magic item is currently "buy one get one free," but that doesn't mean that it isn't important to choose your magic gear with care. As much as shoe sho... [click here for more]
My Dearest Student,
I am glad to hear that you were accepted into the Aubergrave Academy of Magecraft.

The Only Spellbook You'll Ever Need!
This book, Advanced Arcana Volume II, the sequel to the most popular Necromancers of the Northwest product ever, has been long awaited, and not in vain.

Do You Believe in Magic?
The Advanced Arcana series has quickly developed a reputation for excellence, not just because the individual spells contained within these books are of the highest caliber, but because each book explores a theme, pushing the boundaries of what spells are capable of doing in the Pathfin...

You Just Have to Be Born With It
Everyone knows that the source of a sorcerer's magic is in his blood. Most sorcerers have arcane lineages that tend to fall into fairly straightforward and easy to define categories. This sorcerer is descended from a dragon, and has a draconic bloodline. That sorcerer is descended f... [click here for more]
Barbarians, Fighters, and Rogues, Rejoice!
It seems that there are really two ways to go about playing Pathfinder and similar d20 games: you can be a spellcaster, and have all kinds of crazy options to choose from, or you can be a more mundane, martial character, and, well…not. Sure, barbarians get rage powers and... [click here for more]
Destination: Adventure
Legend, myth, and rumor tell of a mysterious and secluded tropical island by the name of Kawa'lea. This lush paradise is said to be home to an amazing variety of plants and animals not found anywhere else in the world. Far more exciting, though, it's said that the island is steeped in powerful life magic, and that it can have curious effects on those who la... [click here for more]
Hot on the Trail of Adventure!
It's not easy being green, and, even more than druids, rangers suffer from a split personality in Pathfinder. Somewhere between fighters and druids, with more than a dash of rogue, it can sometimes be hard to say what being a ranger is all about, other than that ... [click here for more]
A Wise Man Once Said…
Wise sages are a staple of the fantasy genre, from books to movies to games. Everyone knows about Gandalf and Dumbledore, and it can be fun to take on a similar role of guide, mentor, and advisor when you're rolling dice at the table, as well. Now, it's not hard to roll up a wizar... [click here for more]
It's Hammer Time!
Hammers have long been an underappreciated weapon in fantasy, not considered fit for a "main character," and always reserved for the dirty, the uncouth, and those with more brawn than brains. What's more, hammers in the Pathfinder roleplaying game—and anything else t... [click here for more]
Can you Defeat the Goblin King?
Find out in this action-packed adventure, in which the PCs take on the role of the heroes of Springdale, defending that idyllic trading town from ravaging goblin hordes, led by Yarrick, the self-proclaimed "Goblin King" who, in an unholy alliance with a trio of greater barghests, has been laying waste to a number of human settlements. If the PCs... [click here for more]
Fantastic Herbs for Fantastic Games
Do you wish that alchemy in your game had a little more "oomph?" Have you ever been disappointed that no matter what it is that you're trying to craft, all it takes is gold, time, and a skill check, with no concern as to what ingredients you're using or how they're prepared? Have you ever GM'd for a player who... [click here for more]
A-Viking We Will Go!
Vikings. These ancient warriors, seafarers, and explorers have left an undisputable mark on the course of western history.

Flesh is Weak, but Steel is Strong

With the invention of the fabric... [click here for more]
Master the Power of Lycanthropy!
Werewolves have long been figures of fascination. Dating back to ancient times, tales of men who transformed into wolves are nearly as old as civilization itself. There is something primal about the werewolf, about the ability to rid oneself of the restraints of society, and live free like a predatory, ruthless animal.

Discover the Power of Faith
The flavor of clerics and other divine classes has always been that their spellcasting ability comes directly from their deity, and is a gift bestowed upon them in exchange for their faith, or else to allow them to do holy work in the deity's name. Despite this flavor, however, ... [click here for more]
A Necromancer's Grimoire: The Book of Purifying Flames provides rules for the exciting magic of the pure flame, a magical, holy and righteous fire which burns only the wicked and evil. The righteous and pure of heart can pass through such flames without fear, and, in fact, more potent pure flames even heal or bulster such holy and upstanding warriors of virtue.
In addition to 2... [click here for more]
Alchemy Like You've Never Seen It Before!
While alchemy has long been a major staple of the fantasy genre, it has never been a particularly powerful or even relevant ability in 3.5/Pathfinder. The items that can be created with Craft (alchemy) tend not to be worth the effort once one gets past the first few levels ... [click here for more]
So You Think You Can Steal?
Anyone with a few ranks in Sleight of Hand can be a pick-pocket, and it only takes a cudgel to be a mugger, but there is another class of thief as well, the crème-de-la-crème of crime, which has stolen hearts and captivated imaginations for hundreds of years: the g... [click here for more]
Three Orders. Countless Possibilities.

Archery at its Finest
While the bow and arrow is a staple of the fantasy genre—it seems that every elf, at least, is born with a bow already in his hands—it hasn't received that much love throughout the years.

There's a New Magic Item in Town
The Ebon Vault: Orbs of Power introduces orbs as a proper magic item type, with 50 all-new orbs for use in your game.

One Book of Rings to Rule Them All

Staves have long been an iconic accessory for the magically-minded, but, when it comes to game rules, staves have never been the most exciting magic items.

Monstrous Fiends that are All Too Human
Rakshasas have long been a source of fascination for tabletop gamers, and are at once among the most beloved and recognizable fiends, and also the most underused.

The St. John's University Mock Trial team has earned a bid to the opening round of the Championship Series of the National Intercollegiate Mock Trial Tournament. In four rounds of trial competition, the Red Storm finished third out of 21 teams at the Regional Tournament hosted by Roger Williams University, RI, on February 1–3, 2013. Defeating squads from Princeton, Kings College, and the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, St. John's earned a split decision with Fordham to finish with a record of 6–1–1. This marks the 19th time in the team's 21 years that it has received a bid to move on to the nationals. The top seven teams to move forward include Fordham, Kings College, University of Pennsylvania, Brown University, Harvard, and Roger Williams.
"This has been one of the finest performances at regionals in the history of the team," said Bernard Helldorfer, Esq., '77CBA, '80L, professor and director of the legal studies program in the College of Professional Studies. Helldorfer is co-coach of the Mock Trial team, which consists of 11 undergraduate students from across the University. Also serving as co-coaches are Oscar Holt, Esq., '73C, '76Ed, '79L, associate professor of criminal justice and legal studies, and Kareem Vessup, Esq., '01CPS, '04L, adjunct professor of criminal justice and legal studies. In addition to the bid, St. John's had the highest-ranked student witness in the tournament, Ashley Denton '14C, and the highest-ranked student attorney, team co-captain Peter Ozelius '13C. Ms Denton was the only student in the tournament to earn a perfect score of 20/20 while Mr. Ozelius scored a near-perfect 19/20. Co-captain Xuan Gong '13C also received a top 10 student attorney award with a score of 17/20. "Not only did we take third place in a field of very talented teams, but to have the highest-ranked student in both the attorney and witness categories is truly an extraordinary accomplishment for our students," Helldorfer said. The competition simulated a real court case, with students playing the roles of attorneys for both plaintiff and defense, as well as witnesses. Points were awarded based on students' individual performances. The case was a civil lawsuit for wrongful death brought by the spouse of a person who perished during a scuba diving expedition to a sunken yacht. The spouse claimed extreme recklessness on the part of the diving outfit that organized and guided the dive. St. John's looks forward to the Championship Series in Philadelphia on March 23–24. All trials will be held in the U.S. Federal Courthouse. The top six teams from this Championship Series will then advance to the Championship Finals in Washington, D.C., on April 12–14, to determine the national champion.

the full Rule 5 drafts...
BA's ideas on changing the Rule 5
Cubs trade Brian Bogusevic for Justin Riggiano of the Marlins.
Interesting take on SpellCheck: http://www.chicagonow.com/cubs-den/2013/12/if-team... Sorry if it's 3/44ish
I wouldn't give a team that's losing 90 games a year a great TV deal if I'm a broadcast exec. I doubt there's a queue outside the door right now. These are business people not baseball fans. The promise of young talent is only that. In the eyes of business people who are doing investment cost analysis, the prospects are invisible. So I guess the gamble is that ALL these young players are going to blossom and then some TV execs are going to hand the Cubs keys to the vault? Color me skeptical.
"Yahoo Sports' Jeff Passan hears teams believe the Indians, Cubs, Mariners, Padres and Yankees are the most likely destinations for Joaquin Benoit."
that's interesting...kinda. he's 36 and is probably in line for $7-$8m+ a year depending on how many years someone wants to throw at him.
dunno if i buy into the cubs interest on that one.
Obstruction, like it should be at any other base.
link in the sidebar, but Boras bemoaning the Cubs lack of spending again...Theo responds this time.
Theo does elaborate that a new TV deal is gonna be a big key and that revenues should match when their young players are ready.
B. Colon to Mets for 2/20
E. Volquez to Pirates for 1/5
Home plate collisions banned, runner cannot initiate contact but catchers cannot block the plate either and must give runners a path to the base, like all other bases. Specific wording and penalties still to be determined.
collisions at home plate banned by the rules committee...
i feel indifferent about this one...how are they going to handle a catcher dropping an armored leg in front of home plate, especially if the ball isn't going to beat the runner?
Here is how I would change the Rule 5 Draft....
Once selected, the player can be optioned to the minors (presuming the player has minor league options left), but the player cannot be traded, released, non-tendered, outrighted to the minors, or placed on the 60-day DL until the conclusion of the next Rule 5 Draft (a year later).
This way, the player doesn't have to rot on an MLB 25-man roster just so the drafting team can fulfill Rule 5 roster requirements, but the drafting club has to commit a slot on its 40-man roster to the drafted player for one full year.
j.hoyer on MLB Network...
"we got to find a new way to skin a cat."
lulz...j.hart giving him props for drafting baez...hoyer looks uncomfortable, but isn't correcting him
"we got a lot of pitching, a lot of depth"
"we're not ready to make a splash" "hopefully we're there in a couple of years" ...couple of years? bullshit. this team should move to san jose so they can afford to invest in the team. chicago is too small of a market, evidently.
"he's the type of guy we want taking the mound in a first game of the series" - on ninja
M's get lomo for c.capps and sign c.hart.
hell of a day.
i like lomo...there's more power in that bat than what's he's shown.
Not the same as my 3/44 link from yesterday.
BA's take on Rule 5, says Mateo had been electric in the Dominican this winter and getting a lot of late buzz. Hatley, Loosen, Ha and M. Hernandez also mentioned.
Nothing really new here.
"Major League Baseball and Nippon Professional Baseball have agreed in principle to a new posting system for Japanese players that have not reached free agency, according to multiple media reports.
The new posting system must be ratified by MLB's executive council and Japanese owners, a formality that could be completed this week, according to reports."

(NewsUSA) - Many people may practice the "love thy neighbor" creed, but when it comes to four-legged wildlife such as raccoons, squirrels, and opossum that often seek refuge in yards and homes when outdoor temperatures dip and food sources become scarce, they are best kept at an arm's length. As community development has thinned natural habitats and forced these critters into residential areas and lessened their fears of people, the National Pest Management Association (NPMA) has found that many areas of the country continue to report increased encounters with nuisance wildlife.

Welcome disc golfer! You can login or create an account.
Questions? Call us: (785) 258-2494
The Innova Beast - Champion is a maximum distance driver that is straight. It glides long to a predictable finish. It's high glide, high speed, and high speed turn all combine to give big distance. It is suitable for beginners and pros alike. The Beast is a great choice for maximum distance, a turnover driver, tailwind drives, and beginner players looking for more distance from a driver. It's sure to increase distance for beginners and pros alike. A favorite of two-time World Champion Barry Schultz. 21.2 cm diameter
The Beast is a beginner friendly disc that is versatile, straight and makes a good roller.
The era of the wide rimmed disc golf drivers was issued in by the Beast. It was an instant classic when released, giving players more distance while using less power.
Speed 10, Glide 5, Turn -2, Fade 2
DX | Straight | 150 Class - 175g |
DX Glow | Straight | 165-175 g |
Pro | Straight | 165-175g |
Champion | Straight | 160-175g |
Ch Blizzard | Straight | 130-159g |
Star | Straight | 164-175g |
The Beast has quickly become a favorite of mine. MY USE RANGE: 280-400ft. Very versatile disc...Flick or RHBH! My main use for it is the big "S" turn shot to usually dodge trees up the middle. This thing dodges trees like nothin! Glides well & is VERY accurate!" - Eric Friedman
If you are looking for a disc that has
more Fade, try the Orc
more Turn, try the Monarch
more Glide, try the Kite

David Fletcher was born in England in 1952. At school he excelled at drawing cartoons in the margins of his maths book and falling asleep. On leaving school he studied production engineering for five years then jumped on an aircraft bound for New Zealand where he's lived ever since. He was employed as an illustrator and cartoonist by New Zealand's largest daily newspaper, the New Zealand Herald, for three years, but for the last thirty years he's been pretending to work from home as a comic strip artist. He draws two daily strips called The Politician and Crumb the Blackbird, also several weekly strips. His cartoons are syndicated to Europe, Britain, US, Africa, Australia and New Zealand. David has also been a very popular weekly cartoonist with CloudTweaks over the last 3 years.

The fairy tale of a cancer survivor from Austin, Texas, who beat the odds to win the Tour de France a record seven times, has morphed into a parable about telling a lie.
Lance Armstrong has been revealing in his two-part exclusive interview with Oprah Winfrey Thursday and Friday night, but critics say he is leaving out important details.
There has been a lot to learn from Armstrong and from those watching him as he starts to tell the truth.
Getting caught is just the beginning.
This is the reason for his confession. After retiring from the Tour in 2005, he made a comeback in 2009.
"We wouldn't be sitting here if I didn't come back," Armstrong told Winfrey.
Cycling colleague Floyd Landis went public in 2010 with his own doping and leveled allegations at Armstrong as well. This eventually led to investigations against Armstrong.
The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, which tests Olympic athletes for performance enhancing drugs, praised his televised interview as a "small step in the right direction."
But it still would like a full confession of all of his doping activities, under oath at the USADA. The agency had started an investigation against Armstrong, who sued to try to stop it.
He told Winfrey he wishes he'd cooperated freely back then, but now that he has a second invitation to do so, he is approaching it with a caveat.
Armstrong said he would participate if the agency forms a broad "truth and reconciliation commission," involving doping across the sport of cycling.
Blaming yourself is not the same as telling it all.
"I deserve this," were his comments on his fall from grace to public disgrace. In the interview he disparaged his own character for hours, calling himself "deeply flawed," "ruthless" and "arrogant."
"I was a bully," he told Winfrey of how he treated others who might expose his doping and lies.
Armstrong admitted to personal guilt but was careful not to implicate others.
Things escalated to the level they did "because of my actions and because of my words, and because of my attitude and my defiance," he said.
But he also blamed the culture of cycling during the time he doped, saying the practice was widespread and just as much "part of the job" as water bottles and tire pumps.
There were also allegations he still denies, like coercing teammates to dope as well.
People will believe a lie.
Armstrong cheated for years, and no one in the sport of cycling stopped him. He lied under oath about his use of performance enhancing drugs. "Hundreds of millions," as Armstrong has put it, believed him, adored him, and many wore yellow bracelets, because he inspired them.
The fairy tale image was "one big lie that I repeated a lot of times," Armstrong said. It became impossible to live up to and it fell apart.
He publicly derided those trying to expose him, ruining some of their lives. "We sued so many people," Armstrong told Winfrey -- people who were telling the truth and lost to him in court in spite of it.
It was about controlling the narrative of his heroic story. "If I didn't like what somebody said ... I tried to control that and said that's a lie; they're liars," Armstrong said.
"Now the story is so bad and so toxic, and a lot of it is true," he said.
Be nice to people on your way up.

Clinton's Mideast 'shuttle diplomacy'
Cease-fire tests secretary of state's political skill
For both President Barack Obama and his secretary of state, Hillary Clinton, the bid to broker a cease-fire in Gaza was high-profile, high-risk diplomacy.
"It's a significant decision to send the secretary of state into an uncertain situation that puts American credibility and influence on the line," a senior State Department official tells CNN. "I have the beginnings of ulcers to show that this was not a done deal when we left" for the Middle East.
Planning for Clinton's possible "shuttle diplomacy" trip to the Middle East -- cutting short a trip with Obama to Southeast Asia -- began Sunday, the official says. When Clinton and her staff arrived in Thailand, they began conversations with the president's senior staff. Did the potential benefits of going outweigh the risks?
Over lunch in Myanmar, Obama and Clinton discussed gaps between Egyptian and Israeli proposals for a cease-fire and how the U.S. might most effectively play a supporting role.
On Monday, the president called key players, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Egyptian President Mohamed Morsy. By Tuesday, the decision had been made: Clinton would fly to the region. The staff began putting the wheels in motion for a mid-afternoon departure from Phnom Penh, Cambodia. She would arrive in Israel at 10 p.m. local time and go directly to a meeting with Netanyahu.
But before she left for the airport, Clinton, Obama and a small group of senior staff huddled once again, walking through the basic strategy, how to announce the trip and how to categorize it.
"We were still, as we drove out to the airport, working out the timing of the meetings at various stops," the senior official tells CNN. "That's how quickly this was all coming together."
The president's deputy national security adviser for strategic communications Ben Rhodes announced the trip as Clinton's plane was taxiing down the runway.
Clinton and her staff flew from Phnom Penh, via Mumbai, India, to Tel Aviv, Israel. As soon as they arrived, they drove directly to the prime minister's office in Jerusalem for Clinton's meeting with Netanyahu. They talked for two and a half hours, discussing Israel's strategic considerations, its concerns about a cease-fire, the terms it wanted and how Israel wanted to address longer-term issues, including weapons smuggling.
Overnight, she and her staff mulled over what to propose to the Egyptians, who had their own proposal for a cease-fire with Hamas.
The next day, Clinton traveled to Ramallah to meet with the president of the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbbas, and returned to Jerusalem for yet another meeting with Netanyahu and other senior officials. They talked about the potential for a call from Obama to Netanyahu that would include subjects such as the Iron Dome air defense system and arms smuggling.
Once again, Clinton boarded her plane for a short flight to Cairo, Egypt, carrying with her the terms of a possible cease-fire.
"The secretary met with President Morsy for about an hour, and they literally sat there with the paper in their hands, marked up with potential changes to it," the State Department official tells CNN. "So it was that level of specificity that she and President Morsy -- as well as the Egyptian foreign minister and national security adviser -- were getting into."
At the end of meeting, Clinton told the officials that what they had agreed on was consistent with what the Israelis wanted, but she needed one more discussion with Netanyahu to make sure he was comfortable with the terms. She urged the Egyptians to check with the Palestinian factions to make sure they were comfortable as well.
Clinton was taken upstairs to a conference room, where she called Netanyahu. Then there was a second call to clarify some points. Finally, Netanyahu said he was ready for a call from Obama.
At 7:30 p.m. local time, Clinton and the Egyptian foreign minister Mohamed Amr announced that the cease-fire would go into effect at 9 p.m.
"You could not have a more textbook case of on-the-ground diplomacy, where she is literally word-smithing the final cease-fire documents with both the prime minister of Israel and the president of Egypt," the State Department official says.
She was "sitting there with the paper, with a pen in her hand, making small edits, underlining things, passing words back and forth, debating phrases. And all the while, also stepping back and saying 'What's the larger strategic picture here? Why is it so important for you, Prime Minister Netanyahu, to close this out? Why is it important for you, President Morsy, to close this out?'"
As for the U.S. role, the official says the question was what assurances the U.S. could give, especially to the Israelis, "that as far as missile defense is concerned, and arms smuggling is concerned, we'll be there for them so that this doesn't just repeat itself in a few weeks' time."
"We were taking a risk in doing this," this official says. "We were putting both her credibility on the line and the United States' credibility on the line, and ultimately we decided the stakes were too high not to do it, but there was a very real risk that this would not succeed."
Amid the nail-biting by her staff, Clinton was "resolute," the official says. "She thought this was the right course of action for Israel's interest, for regional stability. She felt at the end of the day that would shine through if you could get people focused on the big picture, and that's what she was trying to do."
Clinton's political skills helped, but the official notes that "these are not just political arguments, because we're talking about issues of life and death and existential threats ... it's also about statesmanship and strategy. So she had to be as much a diplomat as politician to be able to grapple with problem at stake."
As Clinton headed for the airport to return to Washington, cease-fire in hand, the official says, "we were not jubilant, we were not really excited."
"Because we recognized that this is a first step; it's fragile, it remains risky; there remain very real underlying problems that need to be dealt with."
"This was not pop-open-the-champagne time. It was job well done, and now let's get to work on the next thing."

GOP critics of Hagel call on Obama to withdraw nomination
Senate scheduled to vote Tuesday on whether to end GOP filibuster
Fifteen of Chuck Hagel's harshest Republican critics in the Senate are calling on President Barack Obama to withdraw his nomination, arguing "it would be unprecedented for a Secretary of Defense to take office without the broad base of bipartisan support and confidence needed to serve effectively in this critical position."
In a letter Thursday to the president, the senators didn't raise any new substantive concerns about Hagel but reiterated long-held complaints about his stances on key issues. In particular, they said his "ambivalence about whether containment or prevention is the best approach" to dealing with a possibly nuclear-armed Iran means "the military option will have near zero credibility" if he were in charge of the Pentagon.
In addition, they said Hagel's uneven performance during his confirmation raised "serious doubts about his basic competence to meet the substantial demands" of the job.
The Senate is scheduled to vote Tuesday whether to end a GOP filibuster of the nomination. A similar vote last week fell short of the 60 votes needed to end the debate. Despite considerable opposition from Republican senators, many GOP lawmakers and aides expect Hagel will be confirmed, although with just a handful of GOP votes.
In fact, Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala., who had voted against ending the filibuster so his colleagues would have more time to gather information about Hagel, announced Thursday that he would now support Hagel's confirmation.
Signatories to the letter include Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, the second-ranking Republican in the Senate; James Inhofe of Oklahoma, the top Republican on the Armed Services Committee; Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, who had previously called on the president to withdraw Hagel's nomination; and Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, who raised hackles on both sides of the aisle when he suggested, without evidence, Hagel might have been paid by North Korea and other countries opposed to U.S. interests.
Notably absent from the letter is Sen. John McCain of Arizona, who has led the charge against Hagel's confirmation and voted last week against breaking the filibuster. Despite his opposition, McCain has also said he believes the president has a right to an up or down vote on his cabinet selections.
