Art Is Safe

Friday, November 5, 2010

We were happy to see the latest volume of the Serpent's Skull Adventure Path starting to make its way to subscribers this week, and that means it's time to start touting the next awesome volume, Vaults of Madness by Greg A. Vaughan.

I'm currently playing this AP (having a great time as a monk/paladin of Irori in Paizo.com messageboard member Karui Kage's game), so I've tried to keep from poring over the existing installments of this campaign, but it can be hard to avoid the art. So while I don't know who or what these pictures represent, here are a few (hopefully spoiler-free) images from Pathfinder Adventure Path #40, which we expect to start shipping next month.*

Half-celestial awakened gorilla paladin?

I'm so happy to see the winged apemen back I could fight two bears taped to each other.

I am very curious about how these guys get along(or don't!) with the ape-demon-worshipping ape-men.

So where is the three-headed monkey?


I cannot help it. I find the winged gorilla folk SO cool and compelling! When this AP is over and I have collected as much info as possible about them, I am totally going to figure a way to shoe-horn them into my homebrew in some type of Gorilla City (complete with Gorilla Grodd).

I gotta say that I immediately thought of him (and some more genetic mutation to make himself more superior to humanity) when I saw the Scimitar-wielding winged-gorilla.

/d


I'm officially excited about being able to take on the monkey people with wolves!

You may have thrown feces at out camp while we were away, but now you will be feces you prehensile-tailed demi-humans!!!

Oh yea, I can't wait for this to arrive. I was using my one conversion before but now I have the official version? I happily toss out my version in order to use this. I will assume the other monkey, besides the human but I digress, is more charu-ka or whatever they are called. Again this book is looking good!


oh my..winged apes for my Wilderlands game..evil DM style grin.

NOW I realize I don't own Crucible of Chaos. *goes to browse the 3.5e modules again*


Where of to see the wizard the wonderful wizard of Aaaaa....

Liberty's Edge

This pic really makes me want to play an elven druid of gozreh who pc's into brightness seeker. wildshape into ape/ spend hour to get wings/ cast special armor spell. Than arm yourself

The Exchange Kobold Press

Like the rest, I'm so happy so see the Derhii are back! I can't wait to see what Greg does with them.

And that art rocks! What is that OTHER Monkey Man, the one in bronze armor, I wonder?

These are just guesses mind you...

Pic #1) A fighter/alchemist? (He is holding some sort of bottled liquid, and yes I realize after typing this, he may simply be a fighter with a flask of alchemist's fire).

Pic #2) A charu-ka ranger? (Doing the two-weapon fighting with a battle axe and dagger?) And due to the look of him I'd say a serpentfolk cultist as well.

Pic #3) Well it's obvious (to anyone who has Crucible of Chaos... by far one of the best v.3.5 Pathfinder Modules) that this is a derhii. I love that they are making a glorious return/reappearance (and I find myself hoping that this one isn't an enemy... but a potential ally).

And I still WANT a derhii mini... please, please (folks at Reaper are you listening?) :)

A part of me hopes there will be an entry on derhii as monsters somewhere. Maybe in the bestiary.
