Bastards of Golarion
In this Flip Through Matt takes a look at some of the highlights offered by the Inner Sea NPC Codex. The Inner sea Codes is produced by Paizo Publishing for the Pathfinder RPG. Unlike the first NPC codex that focuses on the core classes The Inner Sea NPC Codex focuses on the flavor of certain “factions”. For example this book contains templates for The Grey Gardner and the Red Mantis Assassin. Both of which have become an important part of the Pathfinder world.
