Everyone, Stay calm…BLAM!


Commanding Influence Feat 4

Bard  envoy

Hey!  Everything is fine!  Just stay cool!  When you roll initiative you can choose to do a Deception, Intimidate, or Diplomacy check instead.  All creatures that have a lower initiative than you in the first round are considered off-guard to you.

Daily Punch 7-28-25 MOVE! general feat for Pathfinder 2nd Ed

I ain’t staying here!


MOVE! Feat 7

General
Trigger You would start your turn in an area where an effect would trigger at the start of your turn
Frequency once per day

Staying is a bad idea! When you would start your turn in an area where an effect would trigger at the start of your turn, before you turn starts, you may make a stride action as a reaction. If you leave the area where the effect would occur, the effect does not happen to you.

Ring Side Report- RPG review of Pathfinder Bounty #15: Treasure off the Coast

~ fineyoungmisanthrope ~ Leave a comment

Product– Pathfinder Bounty #15: Treasure off the Coast

System- Pathfinder 2nd Ed

Producer– Paizo

Price– $24.99 here https://paizo.com/products/btq02akz?Pathfinder-Bounty-15-Treasure-off-the-Coast 

TL; DR– A solid intro. 100%

Basics– Why not make money!  It’s time to speed run an adventure!  You meet a quest giver in a bar, and she offers you money to get some treasure.  How could this go wrong?  

Mechanics or Crunch– This is a basic paint by number adventure, and that’s not a bad thing.  You have some social interaction, then some skill challenges, and lastly some fighting.  It’s not the deepest interaction, but if you want a quick con demo, this is my go-to.   5/5

Theme or Fluff–  We got devil worshipers, boats, and water goblins.  There is enough story and fluff here to draw you in for the hour.  Again, don’t expect crazy levels of detail, but there is enough to have fun for an hour-long game.  5/5

Execution– It’s a Paizo one-hour, one-shot.  Decent story, decent pictures, and a simple map.  I get out of this exactly what I expected.  5/5

Summary– I do a lot of evangelizing for PFS, and when I’m at cons where people just don’t know what RPGs are, this is the adventure I’ve landed on bringing with me.  Bar, quest giver, boat, skill test, fight, wrap up.  This is exactly what I expect from a bounty, and I love this one.  100%
