Abilene, Paizo, and Sintel

Sorry I missed the last bi-weekly. It was a messy week.

That said, even if I been able to sit down and put something together, there wasn't much to say. There's a little more now.

First, I finally had a PFRPG session with Abilene locals last night. One had played 2e, 3e, and 3.5 before, the other... completely new to pen&paper. I think it shows promise though!

Second, My brother finished my Merisiel mini for me. Its fantastic, I really need to get a functional camera again so I can post some images. He posted some on his facebook, for those who know me personally... just hunt him down.

Third, Paizo's about to ship me the Bestiary II!... I haven't been paying attention to any previews or blog posts, so when it gets here I'll be digging through it cold. Also, I've narrowed down my RPG Superstar ideas to two... but not really happy with either yet.

Last, It's been out a while but if you haven't seen the Open Movie Project: Sintel Go watch it. It's sad, and short, but a truly impressive production.

That's about it. Derek at Spectral Plane is trying to get stuff squared away to order me reaper minis. It'll be good to see those in the store (and hopefully dice and books...)

New Krenna, New Paizo, Abilene Progress!

So, progress on Snakes Among Us continues. The Players Guide has already hit four pages and 2500+ words, its no where near done though... The Story Path file's even bigger, but that's to be expected... especially considering I'm already at four statblocks for just the first encounter!

The Krenna/K&D setting in general has made some progress because of this... More art's done, both character sketches and holy symbols. I have an additional artist (Daemion from the CBT message boards), and the sibling is working on some symbols as well.

Also, I got this email monday:

The following products are included in this shipment:
1 x Pathfinder Tales: Winter Witch Print Edition
1 x Pathfinder Adventure Path #39: The City of Seven Spears (Serpent's Skull 3 of 6) (PFRPG) Print Edition
1 x Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Misfit Monsters Redeemed (PFRPG) Print Edition

I haven't had a chance to look at the AP or CS installment, but I had time to read the pdf copy of Winter Witch. This was way better than Prince of Wolves. It might have been a little shorter though. Either way, good quick read, "brain candy" quality.

Prepare for RPGSuperstar! I know, Paizo hasn't said anything yet... but unless they decide to drop it, its coming again in December/January... so best start thinking about your Wondrous Item entries now... I am.

Spectral Plane in Abilene has made progress towards becoming a respectable gaming store along with collectible toys. I'm supposed to run an introduction game for Pathfinder this weekend there, they've started selling WH40K product, and I left them with a Paizo catalogue last week. Derek (the shop owner) was going to make an attempt to contact Paizo soon... So I'm hoping with in a few weeks there will finally be a place in Abilene with game tables, and PFRPG product!

Eating Habits, Kaidan Update

First... I asked a question here a few days ago. I also asked it at:
Paizo
Cartographers Guild
Classic Battletech
and RPtools

In short... sandwiches/burgers, pizza, finger foods, and a few others were really common. Right now its just babel... but I did have a reason for asking which I'll get to at a later date.

Otherwise, Kaidan has become a patronage project. As someone who tried to be of help to Michael K. Tumey when he started it... and who did drop the $10USD on The Gift back when it came out. I'm happy he's getting to continue... and ready for more. So check it out!
