The tale of a clever rogue and her angelic partner pit against a centaur army

PATHFINDER TALES: Shy Knives

By Sam Sykes

Tor Books and Paizo are pleased to announce a new and original novel set in the Pathfinder universe: PATHFINDER TALES: Shy Knives (A Tor Trade Paperback; $14.99; On-sale October 18, 2016) by Sam Sykes.

Shy Ratani is a clever rogue who makes her living outside of strictly legal methods. While hiding out in the frontier city of Yanmass, she accepts a job solving a nobleman’s murder, only to find herself sucked into a plot involving an invading centaur army that could see the whole city burned to the ground. Shy could stop that from happening, but doing so would involve revealing herself to the former friends who now want her dead. Add in an aristocratic partner with the literal blood of angels in her veins, and Shy quickly remembers why she swore off doing good deeds in the first place.

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON (June 13, 2016): Trapdoor Technologies announces today the launch of Playbook For Pathfinder, their first officially licensed toolset for the award-winning roleplaying game. Playbook For Pathfinder is now available in the iOS App Store with a free download and one month free trial for new users.

Playbook For Pathfinder allows players to roll-up and manage characters, while Game Masters can purchase and prep adventures and campaigns for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. The app features quick rules look-up, information sharing, stat tracking for monsters and PCs, and more.

The app will include the game’s complete rules set, artwork, connection with Pathfinder Society Organized Play events, and an extensive library of Pathfinder adventures. New content releases will be made each Tuesday, with additional adventures and rulebooks being added throughout the year.

At PaizoCon last week, Paizo announced the Starfinder Roleplaying Game—a new science fantasy RPG based on the Pathfinder universe and rules. Trapdoor will be working closely with Paizo to create a sister app for the new RPG system launching in 2017.

“We are really looking forward to the continued integration of the Pathfinder world in Playbook,” said Lisa Stevens, CEO of Paizo. “We believe it has the potential to streamline prep time and become an invaluable tool for both players and Game Masters.”

Pathfinder Module: Ire of the Storm

$24.99

Pridon’s Hearth is Sargava’s newest colony, pushing the country’s borders further south than ever before and attracting treasure-hunters, fortune-seekers, and troubled souls hoping for a fresh start. But unnaturally powerful storms rock the tiny settlement just as the local lizardfolk tribe declares war on the colonists within. Are these threats somehow related? What became of the heretical cult of Gozreh that journeyed to the region a century ago, and do its corrupt teachings hold the key to calming the growing hurricane? Can the heroes protect the growing community from raging tempests and hostile monsters alike? And what role does the shadowy Aspis Consortium play in these recent dangers? These challenges and more await heroes willing to face down the Ire of the Storm!
