PF 1e: Fugitive Hunter

Check out the other previews of the Slayer Codex, like the Terran Enforcer and the Poisoner.

This month, we are focusing on 13th Age blog posts but we are not doing them exclusively. Our aim is to do two 13th Age blog posts per week and one of another system, baring anything special like a product release or a preview for just such a release. Which bring us to today.

While we are not ready to release the Book of Beasts: Slayer Codex, we are read to begin sharing what is inside. So let us start with the level 1 NPC, the one we always share when we first start talking about a new codex. The last three codices involved those well endowed, magically speaking. Slayers are the first class we’ve done in this series that is fully without magic. What they do have is a whole lot of guts and brains, so they know when to charge headlong into combat or when they should stay in the shadows to pick their targets off from the shadows with their sneak attack.

Join the Book of Beasts: Character Codex Subscription to get the Slayer Codex as soon as it is released. You can download this at DriveThruRPG and the Open Gaming Store. And if you want to see more Pathfinder-focused blog posts be sure to join our Patreon. Three dollars is all it takes for you to have your voice heard in our monthly polls to see what we are going to create for the following month.
