Description
From the fringes, the unknown beckons. Pathfinder Dark Archive (Remastered) Sketch Cover Edition contains secrets that any player or GM can use to reveal the paranormal lurking in their Pathfinder games, all updated to work perfectly with the remastered Pathfinder Second Edition rules! This spine-tinglingly secretive 224-page rulebook presents two new character classes perfect for delving into the unexplained: Unleash the untold power of your mind as the psychic or leverage supernatural secrets and mystic implements as the thaumaturge!
Beyond these new classes, eight secret case files each provide player options, GM tools, and lore into a different paranormal topic, including:
Strange cryptids glimpsed in the night, gear to track them, and the powers you might gain by surviving an encounter with one.
Cults and esoteric belief, with apocryphal divine magic and the secret of becoming a living vessel for an eldritch being.
Temporal anomalies, with archetypes that skim along the surface of time and a new mystery for oracles unbound from causality
Each file concludes with a short adventure to immerse players in the paranormal, spanning across Golarion-play all eight to uncover the inexplicable phenomena of the Age of Lost Omens!
Pathfinder Dark Archive (Remastered) Sketch Cover Edition is the perfect addition to the library of any player or Game Master who wants to add a touch of strangeness and mystery to their Pathfinder campaign.
This sketch cover edition features a beautiful image of the original pencil sketch of the Pathfinder Dark Archive cover by superstar artist Wayne Reynolds and is offered exclusively to Paizo's hobby retail partners and direct sale on paizo.com.
