I think that’s the correct time
Yeah that's the correct time
I’m in central time, and that says 6 pm. Pacific time is 2 hours before me, so 4 pm
east coast time would be???
7pm
Ah you got the time right Cyan
Also
I will note
Several godsrain gods had like
Metaphorical deaths
Or ego deaths

reminder of the current pool
See Zon Kuthoj and Irori
I think it’s entirely possible the god will be radically changed
I'd miss Lamashtu enough for the whole world
Yea, but exemplars come from the exploded god stuff from said dead god
Like, it could be from minor gods, but that seems weird
Lamashtu metaphorically dies but that does lead to her bleeding over the entire world
they said that the iconic exemplar was not born of the core gods death
iirc
because his backstory used she/her pronouns for the god and they were like "yeah that doesn;t mean anything"
So what other things do you hope to see in the stream? I hope they give some of the changes they made to the Exemplar and Animist
i'd be really interested to see more details on the Mythic stuff
yeah big same
I want them to say if mythic rules are just gonna be new archetypes
which i really hope they aren't lol
Same
i would be surprised if it were just feats
like I want mythic to be a new progression system like 1e
The problem is that probably needs a playtest, and we never got one
so, I'm kinda thinking about making a life oracle. Given free archetype, what's the best way to play around their weakness (probably taking medic as a given)? Thaum chalice or something? Life link seems to ignore temporary hit points, but it's at least something.
The thing is that while 1e mythic was cool, it was also kind of A Lot
Whatever it is, its close enough to the base system that they didn't think it needed too much testing
there's no substitute for not getting beaten up in the first place
I mean I want it to be kinda a lot
yeah, seems likely
though I suppose the comedy option is they slap so many 'HEY THIS ISN'T BALANCED AT ALL' labels on it that they figure it's not even worth testing lol
but that is uh
generally Not how 2e has operated
maybe it'll have some similarities to the Relic Gift system? i expect it to be closer to archetypes or something myself, but we've got no info atm so it's all speculation anyways
...cleric for raise symbol, maybe?
do you have the actions?
It Depends (tm) I suppose
I guess just going for heavy armor prof is probably a better option
my suggestions would beee Alchemist or Herbalist to get elixirs you can heal yourself with, or Sentinel or Champion for extra tankiness
heavy armour proficiency has its own set of exciting problems
I'm wary of herbalist because the one time I took it I found that the healing by level scaled like absolute shit (esp when you factor in having to draw elixirs)
yeah i wouldn't bother trying to avoid the healing restrictions honestly
oh, true, the halving affects all healing
but you probably prefer dependable high flat healing to rolling some d6s
but really if you are getting beaten on in any significant fashion there's a problem an archetype can't solve
+1 ac from heavy armour is not going to be that clutch
i think getting shield block or something is probably better honestly
well yes but in any case the archetype feats are there and spending them on survivability seems sensible, considering
wait
comedy option
desecrator champion
if you can somehow wangle enough strength to avoid the horrific armour penalties champion archetype is pretty overpowered

...oh it isn't even really that much, is it
and then get scaling proficiencies later
thaum amulet reaction is way higher (tho admittedly has exploit action tax)
if you can get your hands on some dawnsilver (new name for mithril) armor, that helps get around the penalties for not having enough strength by a lot
but expensive
thought i was in helldivers chat for a second ngl
by the time you can afford mithril you can pretty easily have 18 strength anyway though
yeah Desecrator just gets worse damage reduction for some reason
it's just what you were going to put into dex anyway
I’m surprised there’s no leak
that would be my ideal
my dad works at nintendo and he said that actually all the prophecies are true and everyone marked 'safe' is actually going to die
helping other people is simple more powerful than doing it for yourself
yeah imo the evil ones intentionally are kinda bad
(that would be hilarious actually)
the power of selfishness is cool and all but like
not very useful in a heavily party based setting
Doorstopper#27 reporting for duty
"I'm so selfish ha ha sets up flanking for my friend"
Evil campaigns have so many like unique things for them
"I stab you"
"Why"
"Because I am evil"
"So are WE"
"Yes but I want the power all for me"
yeah but also Amulet Thaum
which is of course a bit more limited because it only works against your Exploit target, but still
is bastion any good? esp with remaster shield runes
reactive shield for turns that can't afford the action tax is kinda nice
bastion is pretty good, yeah
especially if I also get raise symbol at some point
mhm, although you'd also need emblazon armaments to get that to work at the same time as raise shield
it'd take some doing yeah
bastion starts off with some weaker/more niche feats, but it has some bangers at 10+
free once a round reaction to shield block, especially
you do need to get shield block from somewhere
can't you just general feat it
you can
yeah, at 3
ah
or being a human i guess
that said reactive shield on its own is very good and you can get it from viking
extremely powerful archetype
I’m excited for bastion on my outlaws inventor
I would like to submit-
My SOT GM, Giu, votes Gozreh, and it is also their birthday
You can put that in brackets by my vote because I'd be happy if they guessed right
So Giu votes for Gozreh?
Yep!
fuck it, I'll take the longshot bet on 'some sort of swerve'
none or multiple or not 'dying' in the sense that people actually expect

"curveball"
Gods no one has put in yet: Gorum and Norgorber
which is weird as Gorum is a decent pick
Not my pick obviously, but definitely plausible
they can't do norgorber, everyone would just go 'oh it's norgorber faking his death, don't fall for it guys' and continue with business as usual
Father skinsaw never dies 
Same with Sarenrae TBH
Not that she's faking her death, but if anyone's death is temporary its hers
I don't think the god that dies will only die temporarily
Too many people will just go "she'll be back in a few years, reborn like the phoenix"
Thats what I'm saying. No one will believe its permanent
I'm honestly prepared to see people be disappointed regardless of who dies
Either they kill off someone important (that someone enjoys), or they kill off a god no one cares about and other people complain it isn't a big deal
Or somewhere in between
Same
That would be the Arch-Copout yes
In response to this
yeah you can't make a big deal out of it if you reverse it later
which is why I'm pretty sure they won't
I suspect Paizo is well aware of the Death of Superman problem
I think that they should say ||F it ||and kills your fav in brutal fashion no respawns
Just feeling a little edgy and frustrated visiting folks drives me crazy
Understandable.
I love my folks they just getting old
when is the reveal stream happening actually?
1 hour from now
I probably can't watch it live
But I'll probably be awake
So feel free to let me know who died
Gonna say we probably don't need to spoiler tag it?
It doesn't seem like who it is, is meant to be a secret
Yeah, its a World Event
My SoT session is tomorrow so here's hoping for a funny outcome
i have an SoT session starting literally at the same time as the stream, so that'll be fun. the god dies in our game in real time
The only pc that worships a specific god is the goblin alchemist worshipping lamasthu
Before I learned it was specifically one of the core gods I was hoping (book 4 spoiler) ||walkena would drop dead mid diplomacy||
that would be funny, lmfao
What happens if we win
a lot of minor gods are also dying, but i doubt that's one of 'em
do we get bragging rights
You take their place and mediate all arguments regarding their domains
a sot campaign could easily postdate this gods death haha
could still happen
Im gonna bet Sarenrae, with my bet if paizo wants to be cowardly as Lamashtu

im gonna join team lamashtu
as in team that thinks lamashtu will die
What's the link to the stream? Is it the officialpaizo one?
It's not up yet
Should be that twitch channel though ye
yeah I mean for in about 20-25 mins when its up
10 minutes
If we actually are getting a role if we guessed right
It will be very funny if I’m correct
Cuz I’m the only one with my guess here
probably not
No role, we can't afford to make joke ones cos theres a limit
F
yeah
Oh well
30 minutes! https://t.co/mASt8U0Wut. We will ALSO be talking about all the tie in products and maybe one or two previously unannounced things?
previously unannounced things...
Nice
Ye just about to post that
STREAM IS UP
New god book
320??? GOD DAMN
humongous
THAT'S BIGGER THAN THE TIAN XIA BOOK
Stream started
Seems to be a gods and magic for the remaster
Not even gods and magic was that big !!
Paizo is muted lol
It's an omen they're killing the sound god
This is a Real Paizo Stream Experience
The bigger the tech hiccups the bigger the reveals
I can't believe Paizo is dying in War of Immortals
Obs shitted itself
Yep
I feel bad for Jon lmao
He must feel so awkward
BACK TO THE STARTING PAGE
TIME REVERSAL
The god doesn't wanna die
5 new class archetypes including the avenger rogue archetype and the bloodrager barbarian archetype
https://paizo.com/products/btq02oar/discuss?Pathfinder-War-of-Immortals
Looks like the 4 Horsemen are involved somehow
OH THAT COVER ROCKS
Cooool
Hate the title logo love the art
9 mythic destinies, including the fearsome apocalypse rider and the undying eternal legend
We 4e now boys
and girls
Is that a unicorn with a sword horn
Oooh
The horse of WAR
Alongside these new classes are rules for running mythic games, archetypes for playing legendary characters, and a wide array of new items, spells, and monsters to tell stories straight out of myth and legend
Mythic levels
Let's go
Is that Arazni on the cov- oh is that War?

Theme of SISYPHUS PRIME from P-2: WAIT OF THE WORLD
Looks to be
Horsemen confirmed?
8 mythic monster threats to
So like, beyond level 26?
His Death
I think 26 is the highest even seen so far
Gods are not meant to die. They're supposed to be immortal, too powerful to be struck down or wither to dust like the people of Golarion. It has been more than a century since Aroden, god of humanity, met his mysterious doom, and his death ushered in a new era of uncertain prophecy and turmoil—the Age of Lost Omens. Now another god has died, his death broadcast across the skies in a metaphysical projection of his murder reverberating over any world on which he was worshipped. And from his rent corpse falls the Godsrain, a torrent of the god's blood and divine essence. Those touched by this rain are blessed—some would say cursed—with a god-spark that imbues upon them mythic power.
HIS DEATH??
yeah
No no it’s aroden novel
Nope, second one
Whose that leave?
it also refers to the new dead god with His
RIP Torag
Oh no 😟
Which male God's are on the list?
Calling it now
Torag and Abadar come to mind
maybe Gozreh? Dunno their orientation
or Nogroboer
those are the 4 males remaining
Gozreh is NB I think
in that case
Man these audio issues really screwed them over
Gotta be Torag
Also new AP! It's about the orcs of Belkzen
alos
Typically presented as a watery female and stormy dude, Gozreh
Link?
torag dying doesn’t sound like such a big deal, the dwarves can just make another one
I guessed wrong fuck
Where did you get this from?
Do you think that confirms who it is?
WE'RE HERE
Damn
NOISES
Looks like I’m not getting that title
VOICES
Store page for the book
yes I'm ready to go
I’m ready
I need to pee, can they wait a few minuets?
nO
Ask them
this is tragic, i shouldn’t laugh
NORGROBER IS ON THE COVER OF THIS
this is basically my worst nightmare made manifest and is not funny
IT'S THE LAST AP BEFORE THE BOOK PROPER
Who’s that?
crime god
Oh damn
Him being on that cover might not mean he dies tho
Was he on the list?
norgorber is one of the ascended
yep
he's basically core by default
I like his art
He’s fairly significant iirc
Oh
yeah he’s a big deal but honestly he could just as easily be the one doing the stabbing
Yeah
this 2bh
MOVE OVER TERRASQUE
HELL YEAH
As in orc god enemy neat
Would make sense
Several dieties?
Probably now a mythic threat
If anything could it would be a Rovagug spawn
Yeah several gods are dying, 1 is core
the dead god is called redacted :O
Rad design
Yep, he's a corrupted Orc God
Wait, the Worldwound is reopening?
just one fo them
Szurial?
Oh ok
Not Aranzi on the cover
Dwarves fighting an orc god thats come back..............................
Yeah uh
Lookin like Torag
feel like the laws of mortality ppl are gonna end up having a real 'I told you so' complex in the coming years
Assuming that is not how they operate all the time
They’re the atheist right?
Pray for Death?
They're the reddit atheists yes
Oh shit
of course they do
I mean
Red Mantis AP?
Ah ok
nice
Red mantis ap
they say gods are not worthy of worship
that humans can and should stand by themselves, without divine meddling
adventure for 14th level characters, and give
I’m gonna start worshiping the gods harder to spite them
Jeez
Oh shit
just like
involves meaning you interact with them
I believe they said mythic rules are not lvl 20+ rules
hey [deity] would you say you are one day from retirement
so a mythic AP would have to start at a lower level than this AP ends
Huh....
Belkzen AP is 3 to 11
Very funky
The book says Mythic Levels
hey [deity] would you like to show me a wallet picture of your kids
Wait so will we not know who dies until the AP?
but it could be a seperate thing
no we figure it out today
they're just holding it close to their ches tfor now
They're gonna tell us today
Oh ok
it's just suspense
neither is used for mythic stuff
That's probably for the best
but they do plan mythic stuff
in the future
He's muted again
The God of sound is vicious
They had an official poll, I assume thats going to be talked about before they reveal
Is there actually a god of sound?
Not that I know of

desna is the song of the spheres
Cool I’m trying to keep up with all this information
Mythic levels will probably be a high powered free archetype is my guess
Which would be very cool
Less rules baggage that way
Great idea
The way its phrased in the storefront makes me think they're seperate from archetypes but yeah I hope so
Free archetype (mythic archetypes only) would be the cleanest way
Honestly, my dream is more like class archetypes than normal archetypes
pathfinder tales are back!
why is the A prominent?
idk
Abadar obviously
Nooo 🫣
maybe it flips upside down and becomes godsruin
TorAg
ANorgorber
That cover looks sick
scrungled as fuck
SOUND GOD STRIKES AGAIN
That's a cool beastie
I hope that Mythic options don't become the norm, it would suck just to have it like 1e where mythic kinda just. Absorbed normal play
Might be an unpopular opinion
Oh I doubt that
I doubt most campaigns will even reach mythic stuff
Oh
I dunno
I thought it was 20+ stuff
it sorta is
Well no
it's complicated
I feel like a lot of campaign concepts just dont work well with mythic
'we need to catch the troll bandit leader Gurgag Skin-ear'
'also, I'm glowing with silver light'
They've explicitly said that it's not
Arazni got a front cover
Ah my b
It can get you to level 20+, sorta, but it’s parallel to your normal leveling
Maybe it’s just an arcane silver light
For the new god book
There’s plenty of light spells
I mean you make a mythic story for a mythic game :p
Godsrain is narated by Yivali, lets go
Oh hey, Starstone
Which affected average party level for the purposes of CR (in theory, CR was not great)
what is iomedae doing here
Godstone Pictured
ascending
Starstone whoops
why does it look like that
We were talking in the context of 'I hope people don't run only mythic games once WOI drops'
They're gonna start hinting at how the Starstone works
did that happen in 1e?
No
And my point was that people are going to still want to run stories that are not Mythic
Ooo were gonna learn about the star stone
I didn't think so
We know next to nothing about the Starstone
I only played one mythic campaign that I didn’t run for 1e
and how gods actually work
Aah sorry convo has been moving fast
god anatomy
All good
The Orc who challenged a god
Oh nice archetypes
I like to think he ascended
just a sword wtf
class archetype for clerics?????
If that's the case, that'd be so cooool I've been talking about that a lot with this god death stuff
We have a god thats a book so nothing weird there
Battle Harbinger, Rivethun Emissary, Palatine Detective
they made warpriest good and now they're like
what if warr-erpriest...
Woah!!!!!
The Battle Harbinger art is the Warpriest Iconic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holy shit!!!
More class archetypes pog
Palatine Detective seems like a Thaumaturge Investigator
Wait what are these images
Also this means it isn't Gorum lmao
Archetypes
Cool orc
it seems Investigator with divine casting
who's hanging out with the bird on that cover
arazni
#881554741732180048 message
It fucking is, very cool
who is joining the core 20
Arazni
WARLORD......
WHAT
It's the Warlord
wait that was arazni???
WHAT WHAT WHAT
But renamed
IT'S HAPPENING
WHAT WHAT WHAT
Warlord class



2 new classes
WARLOOOOOORD
MARTIALS!!
FUCKING WARLORRRRDDDDDDD
aAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
GAUGIENBIEWGUBOEUBOGMRGPOERGIERPGIREOGNEORIGNIPERGPERGRDONDEO9APKDEPOQKD/AWEOS9K
Commander and Guardian
WOAH

no one thought calistra
She was the only one not mentioned in any prophecy, and some of the others were so shoehorned in that it seemed very intentional
wild
..commander is especially curious now that it's kinda competing with sf2 envoy for design space
sure but soldier wasn't just Fighter Again
Not CHA
And I'm very happy about that
HERE WE GO
Commander is an intelligent class
GORUM
GORUM
interesting, interesting
HOLY FUCK
GORUM
I carried the torch in this server
WHAT
Gorumb
haha btfo
ITS HIMMMM
WELL THEN
GORUM
Gorum?!!!
live by the sword die by the sword
Fuckin wild
Jagganoth got him
That’s pretty rad
Cool! I'm fine with this!!
He was always my 3rd pick lol
Oh shit Gorum?
JAGGANOTH GOT HIM!!! NOOOO!!!
I guess Gorum was kinda boring
an iconic's god was killed
Ok did anyone have that?
(amiri)
Oh he'll die in an AP?
Which iconic?
Amiri
barb
War of Immortals
she goes 'FOR GORUM' a lot
Ohhhh she was a Gorum follower
what a lame and unbelievably safe choice for a god to die
Thats interesting though
My 'they won't kill a god thats an iconic' theory was right, but it was for.... the Iconic they brought back in this book
People were gonna be upset regardless

No one wins
I even said that it was weird no one guessed it lol
Apperantly unpopular opinion but this is fine and cool
Nah it's cool
Yeah I think its neat
Im satisfied
Just because it’s not some crazy subversion twist doesn’t mean it’s bad
Yeah like, there's a shit ton of cool stuff happening
gorum isn't like spicy but he is very appropriate
Gorum dying causing a war is perfect
Gorum does not have much personality but I do think 'war god dying makes god war' is cute
Someone update his wiki page
Yeah, I think it's pretty neat too
he's not dead yet!
already? lmao
Time to listen to Heaven's Falling Down on repeat for the next five hours
I should have added gorum to my bet
Also we get sick shit like his fucking armor raining down
becuase like I kinda had gorum in the back of my head the whole time
clock starts ticking whenever the adventure releases
I'm satisfied with this
I was so worried it would be.... Sarenrae or something lmao
Do a lot of orcs worship Gorum?
Wait so catching up, Gorum is for sure the god that died?
Yeah I'm good with this
Yep
Reasonably big deal but not making me mad
Confirmed
I was fairly sure Sarenrae and Shelyn would be safe
My question, what does Arazni do to/for gorum to get into the core 20?
Oh no Amiri
because it would have been really depressing to be them
She's not related
I think this has been clear from the start
They're keeping how he died vague, but he looked stabbed by dark smoke
"Blood for Gorum!" But what about Blood of Gorum?
Honestly it sounds like the former-god-turned-rovugug-spawn many be the one who kills him
It could be
Very possible
That feels really likely
Why the god of war died in a war. Is he stupid ?????
Its always been presented as 'one god is dying, Arazni is a core god now'
Correlation with no causation
Gorum dying to start a HUGE war is what he'd have wanted
True
because that would be spoilers
this is arazni?
didn't recognise her haha
Arazni haters claim she caused it smh
She's doing good these days
"Beat the shit out of each other. My final message. Goodbye...."
like they couldn't just say "she becomes one of the core 20 because it kills a spawn of rovagug that killed gorum" now could they?
Dude is cracked open
I think he's leaking plot maguffins
So the prismatic ray is changing in a different way
With that creepy smoke
I'm very glad that the new orc god was the one from the AP though. Least I got that production right
Fascinating
it turns inton the Godsrain
hair cut
I was saying they'd be part of this for months
Prismatic Ray is absolutely adding Arazni imo
primastic ray is probably at the very least changing it's name to be a pun on a spell they're not sunsetting from the game xP
Godclaws changing to
I agree, I just think there might be more
Oh wait he was a part of the Godsclaw?
oh there most definetly is
Gorum is a good choice for the source of all Exemplars too
This is just the tip of the iceberg I feel
they did mention some more minor gods might die
and yeah
Reasonably neutral to not make them feel weird
yeah
He also isn't like
good or evil
so him dying doesn't cause a narrative imbalance?
Like if you were empowered by Lamashtu that might feel weird
I'm glad iomedae and arazni have to co-exist
That's gonna be awkward
Arazni is the new hotness in the polycule
I think there's room for angst
did they confirm that?
but also like
because it was my prediction
Nethys Note: no description has been provided of this deity
This is the other god btw
The dragon eagle
Can't wait to learn about sword god
Sword god?
poor guy lol
There's a new god whose a sword
a god that's a sword
there's a sentient sword god who is a god of being sentient sword
I love sentient swords in any context, having one that's a god is so good
Vampire guy seems cool
I wonder if uh
mythic is not archetypes
What's it say?
It says that there are new archetypes for legendary characters and THEN
goes on to say 9 mythic destinies
Eh I guess
Might not be archetypes then
Shame, that would just make more sense imo
Wow got got
Hate what?
If it was just archetypes
How come?
Gourm? Died
Gourm is dead ye
Not everything needs to archetypes, in addition, mythic stuff SHOULD be crazy strong and so I would want it to not be like
competing
Why would it be competing? They could just make them crazy strong and say only take it in a mythic campaign
it also wouldn't work with how mythic works narratively imo
NICE 😊
which is that it essentially takes you beyond normal characters
to fight stronger threats
ALL MY FAVORITES ARE ALIVE
I mean the thing is in that case it defeats the point of making them archetypes in the first place
Like, it being an archetype doesn't mean it has to be balanced against existing ones at all
Just make it fuck off strong and say "no touching unless the GM says so"
like the whole concept of archetypes is alternative class feats
It cuts down on bloat though
does it?
Yeah
That's not the end all be all of game design tho imo
like
the game is not currently bloated
Cos now there's another another rule system for leveling
very happy about it
So I guess Amari is the one who is going to become Mythic in that book? Safe guess huh?
plausible yeah
I hope they create some minor gods just to kill them. Like we are introduced to them as corpses
I mean that’s what mythic was before, and it was made that way to create a sense of progression outside of what normal people achieve without mythic powers
He was the god of sound
?
They did that in Love and Thunder
Killed a "bunch of minor gods" off screen
So our first introduction is to their corpse
They fuckin killed Gorr is what they did
I more mean “the god of tax collectors is dead, here’s a in-depth look at how that effects everything”
Although in the comics, Gorr also got their power from 2 off screen gods dying so
But nah, folks who die will be ones we know
Idk it's just underwhelming
Yeah Paizo's already put more onscreen than the MCU did
Who also died?
Gorum
One of the orc gods
Dragon eagle
And that one orc guy became a spawn of rovagug
And we're getting 4 new none core gods
the dragon eagle goes out like a hero
And likely some others are dying
WAIT
Is the new Sword God Gorum's Sword?
Was his sword a living sword?
The Dragon Eagle catches a bit of god stuff from gorum , falling into the world wound. flies into the sky and fucking explodes.
I think they're unrelated, but it'd be cool if they were
Counter point. It's the sword that killed him. Since his blood is giving people mythic powers
Might make the sword drink deep of his blood
wait wait ive seen this before
- ksbd reference *
It is a bit weird that the war god died
How so?
It's what he would have wanted
I dunno that kinda seems like
The War of Immortals
War will still happen
It's just strange
I mean it makes sense
His death is making a war happen
taht he would die in battle
Someone will pick up the Mantel
I wonder how his death will affect the world
He used to be a war god now he's just a War
His dearh starting a War of Gods actually makes sense
they have said that his mantle will not be taken up
Sublimated the limits of personified being
Given what we've seen in the Godsrain Prophecy sruff
That's literally what the next 4 books are about
More conflicts then TOO WAR
it makes sense because like
IIRC , hes the god of FAIR battle
if there was a god war with him involved it would be like uhhh he's the God of War
but yeah Gorum dying erupts conflict
it'd be like getting into an art competition with shelyn
Which tracks with what other God's deaths do
like gorum was a stabalizing force ironically
So it makes sense
There's all this speculation on whose killed Gorum and I'm just thinking, why isn't it the guy we should suspect first?
I kinda forgot that Gorum existed lol 😂
Gorumn was holding us back from playing warlord, he was hogging all the war
hype for Commander
The children yearn for the trenches and battlements
also didn't expect a playtest so soon
I do wonder if the Godsrain is literal godblood, or if that's metaphorical
two weeks
It would be rad if it was
what if there was like
It's quite shrimple, actually
like a sibling to the red mantis and grandmother spider who was a shrimp
achaekek isn't allowed to kill full gods, iirc
Also he was confirmed alive
Wait a second
The God of War dies
And the Horsemen of War is on the cover of WoI
he can't kill a full god
but
full god basically just means a god achaekek won't kill
The perfect cover
Maybe we'll find out how Aroden died :v
so you guys read about triumph of the tusk ?
In the Triumph of the Tusk Adventure Path, the PCs are dignitaries representing the few orc communities or foreign organizations who answered Ardax’s call. Their mission of peace soon turns violent when supernatural weather disasters, betrayals, undead uprisings, and even deicide turn the orcs’ homeland into a desperate battlefield. With the PCs’ help, Belkzen won’t just survive, but will earn the respect it has always deserved!```
"It can't be the guy who kills gods cos he said he can't kill some gods"
Ye it looks cool
wait no actually achaekek can't kill a certain level of god
Funny, Gorum's worshippers believed that he would only die by rusting away if all conflict ended but his actual death looks kind of violent and kick starts more conflict.
Belkzen has always interested me since i read about it in lastwall
because he was empowered by that level of god to kick the ladder out from underneath them
I'm still SO fascinated that the art they used for Battle Herald is just
The GORUMITE WARPRIEST Iconic
So many questions
Is he still gonna be mechanically possible? Is Battle Herald an archetype that makes Warpriest a martial???????
Yeah
I do find it interesting how Lastfall is like
Best friends with two commonly thought "evil" nations
It's a class archetypes according to Luis
Oprak and Belkzen
he’s not REALLY dead while war rages guys
Looks cool
like his whole job is to stop people becoming full gods if the gods don't want it to happen
Oh I knew that
My Q was everything else
Ah my bad
Granted the Lastwall people being nice tracks
The Resurrection Flood is an orc-focused Pathfinder adventure for four 3rd-level characters. The adventure begins the Triumph of the Tusk Adventure Path, a three-part monthly campaign in which an eclectic band of dignitaries become battle-hardened survivalists fighting for orcs’ homeland and independence. This volume includes an overview of orc culture, an exploration of the Flood Truce tradition, new magical items, and fearsome creatures that wander the wilds!
Because they're pretty much the boyscout of the setting
But yeah you're gonna lose your divine font
Interestingly
Gotta get all the allies they can
Isn't one of the archetypes in WoI (the Orc guy in armor) a worshipper of Gorum and a Divine Caster
Im gonna presume there's gonna be a Lastwall background, or something to that amount
That'd make sense
Also iirc
I wonder if we'll see some characters from the lastwall book
Isn't each Spawn of Rovugug deadlier than the last
And given we now have a literal former god Spawn of Rovugug
This one isn't really a full spawn thou
idk the thing is lastwall is also allies with molthune n stuff who are much worse
True
More a corrupted god due to rovugug
I hope we get another "Eye of Abendgo" that's full of Gorum's giant armor pieces
Oh yeah, totally
They can't afford to be enemies with anyone but tar baphon imo
no totally
They're operating out of one city
it's just like
Oprak and Belkzen are just interesting because (back when Alignment was around) they were technically evil nations
But they're genuinely involved with Lastwall
Which are boyscouts
neither really can exist in any other way than they do
Yes
Literally the Warpriest Iconic in 1e
https://pathfinderwiki.com/wiki/Oloch
Oloch has no memory of a time before pain—pain suffered, and pain inflicted. A half-orc of the Haskodar tribe in Blisterwell, Oloch was raised—if it can truly be called that—with the knowledge that his parents had been quarry slaves who died in the ancient mine's cramped tunnels shortly after his birth. Constantly forced to fight for survival ag...
Oprak and Belkzen just want nations for their people thou
Oprak needs political validation
because the rest of the societies that supposedly aren't 'evil' treat the ancestries within horribly
Belkzen really hates Tar Baphon
Or that freaky tower
Also yeah I am feasting with these APs
I love the idea of a Belkzen game
For Oprak, that's more complicated, but the orcs have always been there i think
Which one lol
oooh
I'm playing an Oprak dude in our Kingmaker game
Literal nation-building mission
I wonder if we'll get the long teased "the Dwarves apologize" thing
is battle herald gonna be like more warpriest inspired
The one from that dead goddess with the weirdo elves who live there
To get political allies
1e warpriest inspired
Or did thst happen in SKT
Mordant Spire?
cause I love warpriesttt
Bro what, so am I?
Yeah!
they kinda do something with it in sky king's tomb
i think
Moving away from Alignment was a good thing
I hope so!!!!!!!
My dream guess is that the class archetype takes warpriest and makes it a straight up martial with prof and all in exchange for less stuff on the divine casting end
Especially with all the 'do strike and X happens' feats with remaster warpriest
I could see it making Warpriest more like a wavecaster maybe?
Marshal Bastard Sword Fighter, actually 😛
Remorseless Lash and Snagging Strike to just obliterate enemy AC
Almost then
warpriest was kinda like if magus but self buffing instead of spellstriking
Staff Sergeant Egar Kalt! One of my fave RPG characters ever
He's like James Bond if he was a Hobgoblin
And ace, which might be a larger departure from classic james bond than being a hobgoblin
I thought it was just an adventure
Possibly
Like, one book type beat
Anyways I really wanna play Curtain Call now
It's a stand alone ye
Especially since Norgrober seems like the antagonist of that AP
And you directly interact with Gods
I like how norgorber is just like. who the heck is that
and how he has like 5 different followings
ITS NYARLATHOTEP WITH A STEEL CHAIR
stream summary
who don't even get along necessarily
I think the battle herald should get rid of all spell casting, except for a few focus spells. Their starting focus spell can be heal or harm like, depending on the subclass, and to make it more martial it should be 1 action. In exchange, they should get legendary in all armors, and maybe a cool spell like reaction
wouldn't be surprised if battle herald becomes a bounded caster
this is what sword god god of the swords looks like
Real swordy
Watch them actually be the god of spears
God of pacifism
“I have been cursed into this inferior form. Avenge me, and destroy all of these short reach heathens”
tbf I don't think he has any conniptions about being a sword specifically
Idea: His major blessing is that you get to wield him for a fight 😳
Achaekek personally kills you for his major curse so surely we can get the other end of it
there should be a god whose major blessing is he personally kills you
has anyone used blessings/curse in any of their games?
I have yeah
Party handled a soul gem for a soulbound doll in an unusual way so they all got a minor boon from Pharasma for setting the cycle right
nice!
(Ritually broke the gem while the party Animist used medium powers to put the soul back in their body)
that's quite a neat little reward she gives too
Oh neat
I assume this ||was the abomvaults one||
||Which has a boon from pharasma related to its 'intended' resolution but not her actual deity boon iirc||
It's the same boon
Oh I see I see
But you're correct
I do like boons a lot
Major Boon: Gorum feeds you the zeal of his undying warriors, allowing you to draw upon your own life force to fight on and on without falling. Whenever you would be reduced to 0 Hit Points, you are instead healed to half your maximum Hit Points and become doomed 1 (or increase your doomed condition by 1).
Shame we're losing one of the coolest Major Boons with this
Simply add in a landmark that is a part of his body
Which gives everyone within a mile of it this
