Looking over 2E Playtest sheet from Misc category...

Why Defense have two numbers? 🤔
EDIT: Got answer on Defense question on RoP FB group - Two numbers are for with and without shield. 😲

Other than that - RoP 2E points directly in rules that you can play as other Species ( Cats, Rodents, Birds, Reptiles, etc., no only Dogs ) on the same sheets. Maybe add Species line around char name? 🤔 Best would be with Combo Box with list of playable Species - but letting to write you own in it, as other fans are adding Species to Canis Minor....

We have $41k in the crowdfunding! Unlocked the Guide Screen and jumpstart (starting adventure with ready characters). The nearest Strech Goals are wallpapers with game graphics and a set of VTT tokens for the new edition. In an interview, Eddy Webb mentioned that he wants to fund official support for Realms of Pugmire on Roll20 as well. (Not included in crowdfunding goals yet.)

So the 6th dot in Attribute cost 12 XP? 6 to get Superior Trait as Enhaced Edge - and then 2*3XP for Edge outside of Paths? 🤔 No need for buying once more Attribute dot?
( Based on XP costs table on TC Core p. 39)

I do not know how canonically Lighkeepers operated in that era - but I envision, they would in Aether be like Quality Assurance group for Aethernauts.

'Your new inversion is transmutating matter on left or right? Let me take a look at it. ( Turn' s off it) '

' Your new device can enslave whole town? We dispatch agents to steal it and secure in our vaults.'

Basiclly, Aether version of Guardians of the Veil, to borrow Mage: The Awakening terms. 😎 The difference between Lighkeepers and Edisionians? Lighkeepers do it for noble cause and ideas - all tech...

TA kidnapped to HQ Xavi Ndaba - nonbinary ( and intersex ) kid from the streets of Cape Town, South Africa. Xavi is first 'ever' 3rd Generation natural Psion ( or, rather, Psiad ) the Pheobe Trust knows about from ( Pheobe Trust mini book )

Xavi IS the Pheobe itself to them!

Transcendent Alliance is cutting edge ( ) Super Science group - they made reality True Invisibility! 😲

Think about 'Predator Race' technology from 'Predator' movie franchise. TA can make you literally disappear in thin air. And they made so their WHOLE HQ is invisible for day-to-day ( or simply 'Day', as Assassins would say) people. TA HQ stands in the outskirts of Singapore, totally invisible to public.

Podcast from the devs of Onyx Path about the OGL drama in the RPG industry - and how it affected the writing of Realms of Pugmire 2E (TLDR: Not so much taken over by RoP. 😎 )

Podcast Highlights:
• 20:15 - The history of OGL stems from the fight against piracy in D&D in 2000 - but it started with the beginning of D&D in 1974
• 29:00 - As Realms of Pugmire was written - why OGL was removed in 2E - and why it doesn't actually change anything in the game and can safely leave OGL, releasing its Onyx20 mechanic (inspired by 5E).
• 36:20 – History of a (not)...

[wyrdhamster]

Newest Pathcast episode is about OGL, it's history - and how it's reflected on design of Realms of Pugmire 2E. Reminder - RoP 2E now has Kickstarter - and here it's forum topic! ( OGL talk starts at 20:15 of Pathcast - previous is 90s in culture and RPG industry. )

Bonus - Case of try to copy WHOLE Vampire: The Masquared IP by other game at 36:20 of podcast.

Design Dairy from Eddy - Converting from Realms of Pugmire 1E to RoP2E - meaning for Pugmire, Monarchies of Mau, Squeaks in the Deep - is VERY simple. Major changes from 1E:
• Attributes are now only modifiers -3 to +5 - no full stats from 3 to 20
• All Species can choose all Callings if the Guide agrees - Cat Artisan, Dog Minister, etc.
• More Skills are pinned to Charisma / Presence - thus this Attribute becomes not only the 'beauty' of the character, but the understanding of social interactions - as well as resistances to them.

Biggest rules change I see in the RoP 2E Preview 1 are changes to Attributes. Other changes are seems to be lesser than those. ( At least in Character Creation chapter )

Topic for Church of Man ideas and info. We have been pointed that CoM works much like late medival Catholic Church for dogs.

Here are fan ideas for Rites in Com ( most are from RoP FB group)

• Ending the prayer with 'A Man'
• Touching ones nose with paw - as sort of making Cross
• Blessing - Stroking the head of the blessed
• Giving paws to your co-prayers - as both Sign of Peace from Catholicism - and dogs typical 'Give a Paw' https://kcascension.org/the-sign-of-peace/
• Passing around particularly shaped bowls of water and kibble as a form of Communion
• Sitting down on

Quick scenario in Storypath games - Characters are sneaking into the big bad guy's complex. They have to overcome various electronic security - door locks, cameras, lasers (?), any other ideas you have? How to assess the level of Difficulty to avoid such obstacles?

For example:
* Electronic lock, without biometrics - Difficulty 1-3
* Biometric Lock - Difficulty 3-5?
