Kingmaker Adventure Path!

Kingmaker Adventure Path: In Kingmaker, your player characters are more than mere adventurers. They are destined to become the rulers of the world’s newest kingdom—a nation that you get to build from the ground up as the campaign unfolds! In the northeastern corner of the sprawling expanse of the River Kingdoms lies an unclaimed wilderness known as the Stolen Lands. If your PCs can defeat the bandits and monsters that infest the central portion of the Stolen Lands, you’ll be able to establish your new nation therein... but this is only the beginning. Rugged mountains, sprawling swamps, and tangled forests border your new home on all sides, and as you expand into these lands you’ll forge new alliances, clash with new foes, and uncover an ancient menace that has long lurked in the overgrown corners of the Stolen Lands. But once you’ve claimed your territory, can your party defend this hard-won kingdom from war on its borders and supernatural threats from within? Will you rule with justice and mercy, or will you become the very monsters you fought to oppose? In the Kingmaker Adventure Path, the destiny of the world’s newest nation is yours to decide!

A stunning 640-page hardcover, the Kingmaker Adventure Path provides GMs everything they need to run this epic campaign. All six chapters published in 2010 will be updated to Pathfinder Second Edition rules—including a new prologue making its tabletop debut in this release! Detailed appendices provide GMs with flavorful gazetteers of the campaign’s myriad locations, from the Stolen Lands at large to the rival city of Pitax.

The Kingmaker Adventure Path also features complete rules for hex-map exploration, kingdom building, and management to bring the campaign’s most innovative elements to life at your table. Lastly, a bestiary of new and updated monsters that feature prominently in the Adventure Path give GMs of any campaign new tools to torment their player characters with! The expanded adventure path also includes new material, including:

• Barony Expansion: You’ll get a wealth of new tools, options, and encounters to complicate your players’ lives during the early days of their nation’s foundation. What strange events, dangerous complications, and unexpected boons await, and what effect might they have on the nation during its tender formative years?

• Season of Bloom: A strange and frightening contagion spreads through your lands—people are getting sick, going mad, and ultimately bursting open as horrific monsters emerge from within to rampage through the kingdom! Can you cure this strange affliction and bring the Season of Bloom to a close before your nation falls apart from within?

• Candlemere Dungeon: The ancient legacy of an eldritch god still holds sway. The deadly truths hidden away within the chambers below Candlemere will test your PCs to the very limits of sanity and life alike! Are the powerful treasures and ancient secrets to be discovered in the sprawling ruins below Candlemere worth the dangers your PCs will face, or are some things best left forgotten?

• Cursed King: Take your Kingmaker PCs on their most deadly and dangerous adventure ever! With this expansion, the Kingmaker Adventure Path will provide enough content for your party of adventurers to reach the absolute height of power, finishing the campaign as 20th-level heroes... that is, if you can survive these final epic encounters!

Kingmaker Companion Guide: The adventures don’t stop in Kingmaker’s core campaign. Inspired by the hit CRPG from Owlcat Games, the Kingmaker Companion Guide is a 128-page hardcover that expands on the experience by providing details on twelve companion NPCs who are destined to accompany you into the Stolen Lands. Each NPC in the Kingmaker Companion Guide is presented at several points during their adventuring careers, and as your PCs get to know them, each will reveal additional quests in the Stolen Lands, giving your party ever more opportunities to grow in power and fame. From the base campaign, sidequest adventures will be included for Amiri, Ekundayo, Jubilost, Linzi, Nok-Nok, Tristian, and Valerie.

Further rules expanding specialized roles in kingdom management, shenanigans that could take place around campfires or in taverns between adventures, and other downtime activities will help to fill the gaps between adventures and improve your characters’ and your kingdom’s legend with each friend you make!

Kingmaker Bestiary for Pathfinder First Edition (Add-On): Does your group prefer to stick with First Edition? We’ve got you covered with the hardcover Kingmaker Bestiary for Pathfinder First Edition, a 160-page monster and NPC resource that converts the new companions, NPCs, and monsters unlocked by this campaign into old-school Pathfinder First Edition. Play along in the new and updated encounters with this helpful conversion guide featuring back-converted stats for the entire Kingmaker campaign, plus other rules conversions, tips and tricks to run the campaign smoothly. This add-on book is your ticket to playing Kingmaker in classic style.

We know it’s important for players across the world to understand how Paizo is handling taxes and shipping, and we want to be as transparent as possible. Shipping can be expensive with books as heavy as those in Kingmaker, and that results in more expensive shipping for some countries.

Paizo is partnering with Ingram to consolidate shipments for worldwide delivery via regional distribution centers for more efficient (and less expensive) delivery to your door.

The campaign has ended. Can I make a pledge?

Can I cancel my pledge?

No, you can't cancel your pledge.

My shipping address can change. How can I update it?

Paizo will send all backers an email to verify their current shipping address before products ship. There's nothing you need to do at this time.

Will Paizo be running crowdfunding campaigns for other products in the future?

This is a special event. We’re not ruling out the possibility, but we’re not currently planning any other crowdfunding campaigns.

Will Paizo be publishing other 5E products?

This is a special event. We’re not ruling out the possibility, but we’re not currently planning any other 5E products.

Will Paizo be publishing other Adventure Path compilations?

This is a special event. We’re not ruling out the possibility, but we’re not currently planning any other Adventure Path compilations. (This is our third Adventure Path compilation in 7 years.)

Some products and Add-Ons are marked as "exclusive." Whart exactly does that mean?

Items labeled as exclusive are only available during the crowdfunding campaign. Paizo won't be selling these items into the hobby channel, though if your local retailer participates they would have some copies for sale.

How will the PDFs be delivered?

PDFs will be watermarked and fulfilled through paizo.com. You must create an account on paizo.com in order to claim your PDFs.

Why are you using Game On Tabletop?

Paizo has been partners with the team behind Game On Tabletop for years, and we've watched the development of this gamer-focused crowdfunding platform for some time. We've seen other campaigns migrate over to Game On Tabletop to manage the back end of the campaign as well, and it just made sense of us to leverage the same platform for both launch and the back end.

Why are you crowdfunding the Kingmaker Adventure Path now?

2020 is the 10th anniversary of Kingmaker, and in order to ensure it launches on its anniversary, we need to start building it now.

What about the Starfinder Masterclass Miniatures from Ninja Division?

Ninja Division's Masterclass miniatures campaign is late. We continue to support and meet with the team at Ninja Division regularly, and they're still actively working to find a solution that gets backers the miniatures they were promised. You can find more information about Paizo's response to the delays on the Paizo Forums.

When will my payment be charged ?

Your payment will be charged instantly at the time of the order. You can make several payments of different amounts during the project duration whenever you add additional items, thus allowing you to check out smaller amounts over a longer timespan.

What are Weight Markers and why am I receiving them in my purchase?

Weight Markers are a placeholder for future unlocks at your Reward Level. You can ignore them.
