1. Playing the Game
4hile playing the Pathfinder 'PG, the Game Master
descri#es the e*ents that occur in the game )orld, and the
players take turns descri#ing )hat their characters do in
response to those e*ents. 5nlike storytelling, ho)e*er, the
actions of the players and the characters controlled #y the
Game Master 7fre6uently called non.player characters, or
APCs9 are not certain. Most actions re6uire dice rolls to
determine success, )ith some tasks #eing more difficult than
others. +ach character is #etter at some things than he is at
other things, granting him #onuses #ased on his skills and
a#ilities.
4hene*er a roll is re6uired, the roll is noted as DdE,F )ith
the DEF representing the num#er of sides on the die. :f you
need to roll multiple dice of the same type, there )ill #e a
num#er #efore the Dd.F 3or example, if you are re6uired to
roll /d0, you should roll four six.sided dice and add the
results together. $ometimes there )ill #e a G or H after the
notation, meaning that you add that num#er to, or su#tract it
from, the total results of the dice 7not to each indi*idual die
rolled9. Most die rolls in the game use a d&; )ith a num#er
of modifiers #ased on the characterCs skills, his or her
a#ilities, and the situation. Generally speaking, rolling high is
#etter than rolling lo). Percentile rolls are a special case,
indicated as rolling dI. Jou can generate a random num#er
in this range #y rolling t)o differently colored ten.sided dice
7&d1;9. Pick one color to represent the tens digit, then roll
#oth dice. :f the die chosen to #e the tens digit rolls a D/F and
the other d1; rolls a D&,F then youC*e generated a /&. " zero
on the tens digit die indicates a result from 1 to 2, or 1;; if
#oth dice result in a zero. $ome d1;s are printed )ith D1;,F
D&;,F D,;,F and so on in order to make reading dI rolls
easier. 5nless other)ise noted, )hene*er you must round a
num#er, al)ays round do)n.
"s your character goes on ad*entures, he earns gold, magic
items, and experience points. Gold can #e used to purchase
#etter e6uipment, )hile magic items possess po)erful
a#ilities that enhance your character. +xperience points are
a)arded for o*ercoming challenges and completing ma?or
storylines. 4hen your character has earned enough
experience points, he increases his character le*el #y one,
granting him ne) po)ers and a#ilities that allo) him to take
on e*en greater challenges.
,he !o#t -mportant Rule
he rules in this #ook are here to help you #reathe life into
your characters and the )orld they explore. 4hile they are
designed to make your game easy and exciting, you might
find that some of them do not suit the style of play that your
gaming group en?oys. 'emem#er that these rules are yours.
Jou can change them to fit your needs. Most Game Masters
ha*e a num#er of Dhouse rulesF that they use in their games.
he Game Master and players should al)ays discuss any
rules changes to make sure that e*eryone understands ho)
the game )ill #e played. "lthough the Game Master is the
final ar#iter of the rules, the Pathfinder 'PG is a shared
experience, and all of the players should contri#ute their
thoughts )hen the rules are in dou#t.
Common Terms
he Pathfinder 'PG uses a num#er of terms, a##re*iations,
and definitions in presenting the rules of the game. he
follo)ing are among the most common.
.bility 'coreB +ach creature has six a#ility scoresB $trength,
(exterity, Constitution, :ntelligence, 4isdom, and Charisma.
hese scores represent a creatureCs most #asic attri#utes. he
higher the score, the more ra) potential and talent your
character possesses.
.ctionB "n action is a discrete measurement of time during a
round of com#at. 5sing a#ilities, casting spells, and making

action, s)ift action, free action, and full.round action 7see
Com#at9.
.lignmentB "lignment represents a creatureCs #asic moral
and ethical attitude. "lignment has t)o componentsB one
descri#ing )hether a creature is la)ful, neutral, or chaotic,
follo)ed #y another that descri#es )hether a character is
good, neutral, or e*il. "lignments are usually a##re*iated
using the first letter of each alignment component, such as
=A for la)ful neutral or C+ for chaotic e*il. Creatures that
are neutral in #oth components are denoted #y a single DA.F
.rmor Cla## /.C0B "ll creatures in the game ha*e an "rmor
Class. his score represents ho) hard it is to hit a creature in
com#at. "s )ith other scores, higher is #etter.
a#e .ttac" onu# /.0B +ach creature has a #ase attack
#onus and it represents its skill in com#at. "s a character
gains le*els or -it (ice, his #ase attack #onus impro*es.
4hen a creatureCs #ase attack #onus reaches G0, G11, or G10,
he recei*es an additional attack in com#at )hen he takes a
full.attack action 7)hich is one type of full.round actionK
see Com#at9.
onu#B 1onuses are numerical *alues that are added to

ne), more po)erful a#ilities. Most PCs gain le*els in the
core classes or prestige classes, since these are the most
po)erful. Most APCs gain le*els in APC classes, )hich are
less po)erful 7see Creating APCs9.

Character le*el is the sum of all of the le*els possessed #y a
character in all of his classes. :n addition, spells ha*e a le*el

indicates the general po)er of the spell. "s a spellcaster

instead of class le*els for their po)ers and a#ilities 7although
some possess class le*els as )ell9. PCs are usually not
monsters.
!ultiplyingB 4hen you are asked to apply more than one
multiplier to a roll, the multipliers are not multiplied #y one

are three types of sa*ing thro)sB 3ortitude 7used to resist
poisons, diseases, and other #odily ailments9, 'eflex 7used to

'tac"ingB $tacking refers to the act of adding together
#onuses or penalties that apply to one particular check or

do not stack. :nstead, only the highest #onus applies. Most
penalties do stack, meaning that their *alues are added

Ability Scores
+ach character has six a#ility scores that represent his
characterCs most #asic attri#utes. hey are his ra) talent and
pro)ess. 4hile a character rarely rolls a check using ?ust an
a#ility score, these scores, and the modifiers they create,
affect nearly e*ery aspect of a characterCs skills and a#ilities.
+ach a#ility score generally ranges from , to 1%, although
racial #onuses and penalties can alter this8 an a*erage a#ility
score is 1;.
Generating .bility 'core#
here are a num#er of different methods used to generate

of flexi#ility and randomness to character generation.
'acial modifiers 7ad?ustments made to your a#ility scores
due to your characterCs raceKsee 'aces9 are applied after the
scores are generated.
'tandard( 'oll /d0, discard the lo)est die result, and add
the three remaining results together. 'ecord this total and
repeat the process until six num#ers are generated. "ssign
these totals to your a#ility scores as you see fit. his method
is less random than Classic and tends to create characters
)ith a#o*e.a*erage a#ility scores.
Cla##ic( 'oll ,d0 and add the dice together. 'ecord this total
and repeat the process until you generate six num#ers.
"ssign these results to your a#ility scores as you see fit. his
method is 6uite random, and some characters )ill ha*e
clearly superior a#ilities. his randomness can #e taken one
step further, )ith the totals applied to specific a#ility scores
in the order they are rolled. Characters generated using this
method are difficult to fit to predetermined concepts, as their
scores might not support gi*en classes or personalities, and
instead are #est designed around their a#ility scores.
5eroic( 'oll &d0 and add 0 to the sum of the dice. 'ecord
this total and repeat the process until six num#ers are
generated. "ssign these totals to your a#ility scores as you
see fit. his is less random than the $tandard method and
generates characters )ith mostly a#o*e.a*erage scores.
Dice Pool( +ach character has a pool of &/d0 to assign to his
statistics. 1efore the dice are rolled, the player selects the
num#er of dice to roll for each score, )ith a minimum of ,d0
for each a#ility. Once the dice ha*e #een assigned, the player
rolls each group and totals the result of the three highest dice.
3or more high.po)ered games, the GM should increase the
total num#er of dice to &%. his method generates characters
of a similar po)er to the $tandard method.
Purcha#e( +ach character recei*es a num#er of points to
spend on increasing his #asic attri#utes. :n this method, all
attri#utes start at a #ase of 1;. " character can increase an
indi*idual score #y spending some of his points. =ike)ise,

Gnomes trace their lineage #ack to the mysterious realm of

)ilder, and emotions more primal. 5nkno)n forces dro*e
the ancient gnomes from that realm long ago, forcing them to

the knack for deflecting arro)s fired at you. hese a#ilities
are represented as feats. 4hile some feats are more useful to
certain types of characters than others, and many of them
ha*e special prere6uisites that must #e met #efore they are
selected, as a general rule feats represent a#ilities outside of
the normal scope of your characterCs race and class. Many of
them alter or enhance class a#ilities or soften class
restrictions, )hile others might apply #onuses to your
statistics or grant you the a#ility to take actions other)ise
prohi#ited to you. 1y selecting feats, you can customize and
adapt your character to #e uni6uely yours.
Prere/%isites
$ome feats ha*e prere6uisites. Jour character must ha*e the
indicated a#ility score, class feature, feat, skill, #ase attack
#onus, or other 6uality designated in order to select or use
that feat. " character can gain a feat at the same le*el at
)hich he gains the prere6uisite.
" character canCt use a feat if he loses a prere6uisite, #ut he
does not lose the feat itself. :f, at a later time, he regains the
lost prere6uisite, he immediately regains full use of the feat
that prere6uisite ena#les.
Ty0es of (eats
$ome feats are general, meaning that no special rules go*ern
them as a group. Others are item creation feats, )hich allo)
characters to create magic items of all sorts. " metamagic
feat lets a spellcaster prepare and cast a spell )ith greater
effect, al#eit as if the spell )ere of a higher spell le*el than it
actually is.
Combat &eat#
"ny feat designated as a com#at feat can #e selected as a
fighterCs #onus feat. his designation does not restrict
characters of other classes from selecting these feats,
assuming that they meet the prere6uisites.
Critical &eat#
Critical feats modify the effects of a critical hit #y inflicting
an additional condition on the *ictim of the critical hit.
Characters )ithout the Critical Mastery feat can only apply
the effects of one critical feat to an indi*idual critical hit.
Characters )ith multiple critical feats can decide )hich feat
to apply after the critical hit has #een confirmed.
-tem Creation &eat#
"n item creation feat lets a character create a magic item of a
certain type. 'egardless of the type of item each in*ol*es,
the *arious item creation feats all ha*e certain features in
common.
Ra6 !aterial# Co#tB he cost of creating a magic item
e6uals half the #ase price of the item.
5sing an item creation feat also re6uires access to a
la#oratory or magical )orkshop, special tools, and so on. "
character generally has access to )hat he needs unless
unusual circumstances apply.
,imeB he time to create a magic item depends on the feat
and the cost of the item.
-tem Co#tB 1re) Potion, Craft $taff, Craft 4and, and $cri#e
$croll create items that directly reproduce spell effects, and
the po)er of these items depends on their caster le*elKthat
is, a spell from such an item has the po)er it )ould ha*e if
cast #y a spellcaster of that le*el. he price of these items
7and thus the cost of the ra) materials9 also depends on the
caster le*el. he caster le*el must #e lo) enough that the
spellcaster creating the item can cast the spell at that le*el.
o find the final price in each case, multiply the caster le*el
#y the spell le*el, then multiply the result #y a constant, as
sho)n #elo)B
"crolls: 1ase price S spell le*el L caster le*el L &5 gp.
Potions: 1ase price S spell le*el L caster le*el L 5; gp.
,ands 1ase price S spell le*el L caster le*el L !5; gp.
Sta%esB he price for sta*es is calculated using more complex
formulas 7see Magic :tems9.
" ;.le*el spell is considered to ha*e a spell le*el of 1@& for
the purpose of this calculation.
23tra Co#t#B "ny potion, scroll, or )and that stores a spell
)ith a costly material component also carries a
commensurate cost. 3or potions and scrolls, the creator must
expend the material component cost )hen creating the item.
3or a )and, the creator must expend 5; units of the material
component. $ome magic items similarly incur extra costs in
material components, as noted in their descriptions.
'"ill Chec"B $uccessfully creating a magic item re6uires a
$pellcraft check )ith a (C e6ual to 1; G the itemCs caster
le*el. "lternati*ely, you can use an associated Craft or
Profession skill to attempt this check instead, depending
Page 2!
upon the item #eing crafted. $ee Magic :tem Creation for
more details on )hich Craft and Profession checks may #e
su#stituted in this manner. he (C of this check can increase
if the crafter is rushed or does not meet all of the
prere6uisites. " failed check ruins the materials used, )hile a
check that fails #y 5 or more results in a cursed item. $ee
Magic :tems for more details.
!etamagic &eat#
"s a spellcasterCs kno)ledge of magic gro)s, he can learn to
cast spells in )ays slightly different from the norm.
Preparing and casting a spell in such a )ay is harder than
normal #ut, thanks to metamagic feats, is at least possi#le.
$pells modified #y a metamagic feat use a spell slot higher
than normal. his does not change the le*el of the spell, so
the (C for sa*ing thro)s against it does not go up.
Ai$ard# and Divine 'pellca#ter#B 4izards and di*ine
spellcasters must prepare their spells in ad*ance. (uring
preparation, the character chooses )hich spells to prepare
)ith metamagic feats 7and thus )hich ones take up higher.
le*el spell slots than normal9.
'orcerer# and ard#B $orcerers and #ards choose spells as
they cast them. hey can choose )hen they cast their spells
)hether to apply their metamagic feats to impro*e them. "s
)ith other spellcasters, the impro*ed spell uses up a higher.
le*el spell slot. 1ecause the sorcerer or #ard has not prepared
the spell in a metamagic form in ad*ance, he must apply the
metamagic feat on the spot. herefore, such a character must
also take more time to cast a metamagic spell 7one enhanced
#y a metamagic feat9 than he does to cast a regular spell. :f
the spellCs normal casting time is a standard action, casting a
metamagic *ersion is a full.round action for a sorcerer or
#ard. 7his isnCt the same as a 1.round casting time.9 he
only exception is for spells modified #y the Quicken $pell
metamagic feat, )hich can #e cast as normal using the feat.
3or a spell )ith a longer casting time, it takes an extra full.
round action to cast the spell.
'pontaneou# Ca#ting and !etamagic &eat#B " cleric
spontaneously casting a cure or inflict spell, or a druid
spontaneously casting a su!!on nature(s ally spell, can cast
a metamagic *ersion of it instead. +xtra time is also re6uired
in this case. Casting a standard action metamagic spell
spontaneously is a full.round action, and a spell )ith a longer
casting time takes an extra full.round action to cast. he only
exception is for spells modified #y the Quicken $pell feat,
)hich can #e cast as a s)ift action.
2ffect# of !etamagic &eat# on a 'pellB :n all )ays, a
metamagic spell operates at its original spell le*el, e*en
though it is prepared and cast as a higher.le*el spell. $a*ing
thro) modifications are not changed unless stated other)ise
in the feat description.
he modifications made #y these feats only apply to spells
cast directly #y the feat user. " spellcaster canCt use a
metamagic feat to alter a spell #eing cast from a )and, scroll,
or other de*ice.
Metamagic feats that eliminate components of a spell donCt
eliminate the attack of opportunity pro*oked #y casting a
spell )hile threatened. Casting a spell modified #y Quicken
$pell does not pro*oke an attack of opportunity.
Metamagic feats cannot #e used )ith all spells. $ee the
specific feat descriptions for the spells that a particular feat
canCt modify.
!ultiple !etamagic &eat# on a 'pellB " spellcaster can

its le*el are cumulati*e. Jou canCt apply the same metamagic
feat more than once to a single spell.

DragonhideB "rmorsmiths can )ork )ith the hides of
dragons to produce armor or shields of master)ork 6uality.
One dragon produces enough hide for a single suit of
master)ork hide armor for a creature one size category
smaller than the dragon. 1y selecting only choice scales and
#its of hide, an armorsmith can produce one suit of
master)ork #anded mail for a creature t)o sizes smaller, one
suit of master)ork half.plate for a creature three sizes
smaller, or one master)ork #reastplate or suit of full plate for
a creature four sizes smaller. :n each case, enough hide is
a*aila#le to produce a light or hea*y master)ork shield in
addition to the armor, pro*ided that the dragon is =arge or
larger. :f the dragonhide comes from a dragon that had
immunity to an energy type, the armor is also immune to that
energy type, although this does not confer any protection to
the )earer. :f the armor or shield is later gi*en the a#ility to
protect the )earer against that energy type, the cost to add
such protection is reduced #y &5I.

sometimes called Dtrue neutralF9. Most neutral characters
exhi#it a lack of con*iction or #ias rather than a commitment
to neutrality. $uch a character pro#a#ly thinks of good as
#etter than e*ilKafter all, she )ould rather ha*e good
neigh#ors and rulers than e*il ones. $till, sheCs not personally
committed to upholding good in any a#stract or uni*ersal
)ay.
$ome neutral characters, on the other hand, commit
themsel*es philosophically to neutrality. hey see good, e*il,
la), and chaos as pre?udices and dangerous extremes. hey
ad*ocate the middle )ay of neutrality as the #est, most
#alanced road in the long run.
Aeutral means you act naturally in any situation, )ithout
pre?udice or compulsion.
Chaotic Neutral( " chaotic neutral character follo)s his
)hims. -e is an indi*idualist first and last. -e *alues his
o)n li#erty #ut doesnCt stri*e to protect othersC freedom. -e
a*oids authority, resents restrictions, and challenges
traditions. " chaotic neutral character does not intentionally
disrupt organizations as part of a campaign of anarchy. o do
so, he )ould ha*e to #e moti*ated either #y good 7and a
desire to li#erate others9 or e*il 7and a desire to make those
others suffer9. " chaotic neutral character may #e
unpredicta#le, #ut his #eha*ior is not totally random. -e is
not as likely to ?ump off a #ridge as he is to cross it.
Chaotic neutral represents freedom from #oth societyCs
restrictions and a do.gooderCs zeal.
1a6ful 2vil( " la)ful e*il *illain methodically takes )hat
he )ants )ithin the limits of his code of conduct )ithout
regard for )hom it hurts. -e cares a#out tradition, loyalty,
and order, #ut not a#out freedom, dignity, or life. -e plays #y
the rules #ut )ithout mercy or compassion. -e is
comforta#le in a hierarchy and )ould like to rule, #ut is
)illing to ser*e. -e condemns others not according to their
actions #ut according to race, religion, homeland, or social
rank. -e is loath to #reak la)s or promises.
his reluctance comes partly from his nature and partly
#ecause he depends on order to protect himself from those
)ho oppose him on moral grounds. $ome la)ful e*il *illains
ha*e particular ta#oos, such as not killing in cold #lood 7#ut
ha*ing underlings do it9 or not letting children come to harm
7if it can #e helped9. hey imagine that these compunctions
put them a#o*e unprincipled *illains.
$ome la)ful e*il people and creatures commit themsel*es to
e*il )ith a zeal like that of a crusader committed to good.
1eyond #eing )illing to hurt others for their o)n ends, they
take pleasure in spreading e*il as an end unto itself. hey
may also see doing e*il as part of a duty to an e*il deity or
master.
=a)ful e*il represents methodical, intentional, and organized
e*il.
Neutral 2vil( " neutral e*il *illain does )hate*er she can
get a)ay )ith. $he is out for herself, pure and simple. $he
sheds no tears for those she kills, )hether for profit, sport, or
con*enience. $he has no lo*e of order and holds no illusions
that follo)ing la)s, traditions, or codes )ould make her any
#etter or more no#le. On the other hand, she doesnCt ha*e the
restless nature or lo*e of conflict that a chaotic e*il *illain
has.
$ome neutral e*il *illains hold up e*il as an ideal,
committing e*il for its o)n sake. Most often, such *illains
are de*oted to e*il deities or secret societies.
Aeutral e*il represents pure e*il )ithout honor and )ithout
*ariation.
Chaotic 2vil( " chaotic e*il character does )hat his greed,
hatred, and lust for destruction dri*e him to do. -e is *icious,
ar#itrarily *iolent, and unpredicta#le. :f he is simply out for
)hate*er he can get, he is ruthless and #rutal. :f he is
committed to the spread of e*il and chaos, he is e*en )orse.
Page 15,
hankfully, his plans are haphazard, and any groups he ?oins
or forms are likely to #e poorly organized. ypically, chaotic
e*il people can #e made to )ork together only #y force, and
their leader lasts only as long as he can th)art attempts to
topple or assassinate him.
Chaotic e*il represents the destruction not only of #eauty and
life, #ut also of the order on )hich #eauty and life depend.
Changing .lignment#
"lignment is a tool, a con*enient shorthand you can use to
summarize the general attitude of an APC, region, religion,
organization, monster, or e*en magic item.
Certain character classes in Classes list repercussions for
those )ho donCt adhere to a specific alignment, and some
spells and magic items ha*e different effects on targets
depending on alignment, #ut #eyond that itCs generally not
necessary to )orry too much a#out )hether someone is
#eha*ing differently from his stated alignment. :n the end,
the Game Master is the one )ho gets to decide if somethingCs
in accordance )ith its indicated alignment, #ased on the
descriptions gi*en pre*iously and his o)n opinion and
interpretationKthe only thing the GM needs to stri*e for is
to #e consistent as to )hat constitutes the difference #et)een
alignments like chaotic neutral and chaotic e*il. hereCs no
hard and fast mechanic #y )hich you can measure alignment
Kunlike hit points or skill ranks or "rmor Class, alignment
is solely a la#el the GM controls.
:tCs #est to let players play their characters as they )ant. :f a
player is roleplaying in a )ay that you, as the GM, think
doesnCt fit his alignment, let him kno) that heCs acting out of
alignment and tell him )hyK#ut do so in a friendly manner.
:f a character )ants to change his alignment, let himKin
most cases, this should amount to little more than a change
of personality, or in some cases, no change at all if the
alignment change )as more of an ad?ustment to more
accurately summarize ho) a player, in your opinion, is
portraying his character. :n some cases, changing alignments
can impact a characterCs a#ilitiesKsee the class )rite.ups in
Classes for details. "n atonement spell may #e necessary to
repair damage done #y alignment changes arising from
in*oluntary sources or momentary lapses in personality.
Players )ho fre6uently ha*e their characters change
alignment should in all likelihood #e playing chaotic neutral
characters.

Clerics and druids must take more time to spontaneously cast
a metamagic *ersion of a cure, inflict, or summon spell.
$pontaneously casting a metamagic *ersion of a spell )ith a
casting time of 1 standard action is a full.round action, and

mo*e 5 feet 71 s6uare9 in any direction, e*en diagonally.
+*en though this looks like a 5.foot step, itCs not, and thus it
pro*okes attacks of opportunity normally.
Run
Jou can run as a full.round action. :f you do, you do not also
get a 5.foot step. 4hen you run, you can mo*e up to four
times your speed in a straight line 7or three times your speed

4ithdra)ing from melee com#at is a full.round action.
4hen you )ithdra), you can mo*e up to dou#le your speed.
he s6uare you start out in is not considered threatened #y

Jou can stop concentrating on a spell as a free action.
Drop an -tem
(ropping an item in your space or into an ad?acent s6uare is
a free action.
Drop Prone
(ropping to a prone position in your space is a free action.

Jou can perform one s)ift action per turn )ithout affecting
your a#ility to perform other actions. :n that regard, a s)ift
action is like a free action. Jou can, ho)e*er, perform only
one single s)ift action per turn, regardless of )hat other

Ca#t a Juic"ened 'pell
Jou can cast a 6uickened spell 7see the Quicken $pell feat9,
or any spell )hose casting time is designated as a free or
s)ift action, as a s)ift action. Only one such spell can #e
cast in any round, and such spells donCt count to)ard your
normal limit of one spell per round. Casting a spell as a s)ift
action doesnCt incur an attack of opportunity.
-mmediate .ction#
Much like a s)ift action, an immediate action consumes a
*ery small amount of time #ut represents a larger expenditure
of effort and energy than a free action. -o)e*er, unlike a
s)ift action, an immediate action can #e performed at any
timeKe*en if itCs not your turn. Casting feather fall is an
immediate action, since the spell can #e cast at any time.
5sing an immediate action on your turn is the same as using
a s)ift action and counts as your s)ift action for that turn.
Jou cannot use another immediate action or a s)ift action
until after your next turn if you ha*e used an immediate
action )hen it is not currently your turn 7effecti*ely, using an
immediate action #efore your turn is e6ui*alent to using your

one 5.foot step in a round, and you canCt take a 5.foot step in
the same round that you mo*e any distance.
Jou can take a 5.foot step #efore, during, or after your other
actions in the round.
Jou can only take a 5.foot.step if your mo*ement isnCt
hampered #y difficult terrain or darkness. "ny creature )ith
a speed of 5 feet or less canCt take a 5.foot step, since mo*ing
e*en 5 feet re6uires a mo*e action for such a slo) creature.
Jou may not take a 5.foot step using a form of mo*ement for
)hich you do not ha*e a listed speed.

'pecial 'pell 2ffect#
Many special spell effects are handled according to the
school of the spells in 6uestion. Certain other special spell
features are found across spell schools.
.ttac"#B $ome spell descriptions refer to attacking. "ll
offensi*e com#at actions, e*en those that donCt damage
opponents, are considered attacks. "ttempts to channel
energy count as attacks if it )ould harm any creatures in the
area. "ll spells that opponents resist )ith sa*ing thro)s, that
deal damage, or that other)ise harm or hamper su#?ects are
attacks. $pells that summon monsters or other allies are not
attacks #ecause the spells themsel*es donCt harm anyone.
onu# ,ype#B 5sually, a #onus has a type that indicates ho)
the spell grants the #onus. he important aspect of #onus
types is that t)o #onuses of the same type donCt generally
stack. 4ith the exception of dodge #onuses, most
circumstance #onuses, and racial #onuses, only the #etter
#onus of a gi*en type )orks 7see Com#ining Magical
+ffects9. he same principle applies to penaltiesKa character
taking t)o or more penalties of the same type applies only
the )orst one, although most penalties ha*e no type and thus
al)ays stack. 1onuses )ithout a type al)ays stack, unless
they are from the same source.
ringing ac" the DeadB $e*eral spells ha*e the po)er to
restore slain characters to life.
4hen a li*ing creature dies, its soul departs its #ody, lea*es
the Material Plane, tra*els through the "stral Plane, and goes
to a#ide on the plane )here the creatureCs deity resides. :f the
creature did not )orship a deity, its soul departs to the plane
corresponding to its alignment. 1ringing someone #ack from
the dead in*ol*es magically retrie*ing his soul and returning
it to his #ody. 3or more information on the planes, see
+n*ironment.
3eati%e &e%elsB "ny creature #rought #ack to life usually
gains one or more permanent negati*e le*els 7see $pecial
"#ilities9. hese le*els apply a penalty to most rolls until
remo*ed through spells such as restoration. :f the character
)as 1st le*el at the time of death, he loses & points of
Constitution instead of gaining a negati*e le*el.
Pre%entin .e%i%ificationB +nemies can take steps to make it
more difficult for a character to #e returned from the dead.
<eeping the #ody pre*ents others from using raise dead or
resurrection to restore the slain character to life. Casting trap
the soul pre*ents any sort of re*i*ification unless the soul is
first released.
.e%i%ification aainst ?ne(s 9illB " soul canCt #e returned to
life if it doesnCt )ish to #e. " soul kno)s the name,

Combining !agic 2ffect#
$pells or magical effects usually )ork as descri#ed, no
matter ho) many other spells or magical effects happen to #e
operating in the same area or on the same recipient. +xcept
in special cases, a spell does not affect the )ay another spell
operates. 4hene*er a spell has a specific effect on other
spells, the spell description explains that effect. $e*eral other
general rules apply )hen spells or magical effects operate in
the same placeB
'tac"ing 2ffect#B $pells that pro*ide #onuses or penalties on
attack rolls, damage rolls, sa*ing thro)s, and other attri#utes
usually do not stack )ith themsel*es. More generally, t)o
#onuses of the same type donCt stack e*en if they come from
different spells 7or from effects other than spells8 see 1onus
ypes, a#o*e9.
'ifferent Bonus TypesB he #onuses or penalties from t)o
different spells stack if the modifiers are of different types. "
#onus that doesnCt ha*e a type stacks )ith any #onus.
Sa!e +ffect More than ?nce in 'ifferent StrenthsB :n cases
)hen t)o or more identical spells are operating in the same
area or on the same target, #ut at different strengths, only the
one )ith the highest strength applies.
Sa!e +ffect #ith 'ifferin .esultsB he same spell can
sometimes produce *arying effects if applied to the same
recipient more than once. 5sually the last spell in the series
trumps the others. Aone of the pre*ious spells are actually
remo*ed or dispelled, #ut their effects #ecome irrele*ant
)hile the final spell in the series lasts.
?ne +ffect Ma"es Another 0rrele%antB $ometimes, one spell
can render a later spell irrele*ant. 1oth spells are still acti*e,
#ut one has rendered the other useless in some fashion.
Multiple Mental Control +ffectsB $ometimes magical effects
that esta#lish mental control render each other irrele*ant,
such as spells that remo*e the su#?ectCs a#ility to act. Mental
Page 1%2
controls that donCt remo*e the recipientCs a#ility to act usually
do not interfere )ith each other. :f a creature is under the
mental control of t)o or more creatures, it tends to o#ey each
to the #est of its a#ility, and to the extent of the control each
effect allo)s. :f the controlled creature recei*es conflicting
orders simultaneously, the competing controllers must make
opposed Charisma checks to determine )hich one the
creature o#eys.
'pell# 6ith Fppo#ite 2ffect#B $pells )ith opposite effects

accruing in the order that they apply. $ome spells negate or

3igments and glamers cannot cause damage to o#?ects or
creatures, support )eight, pro*ide nutrition, or pro*ide

" failed sa*ing thro) indicates that a character fails to notice
something is amiss. " character faced )ith proof that an

PolymorphB " polymorph spell transforms your physical
#ody to take on the shape of another creature. 4hile these
spells make you appear to #e the creature, granting you a G&;
#onus on (isguise skill checks, they do not grant you all of

a#ility scores and a #onus to your natural armor. :n addition,
each polymorph spell can grant you a num#er of other
#enefits, including mo*ement types, resistances, and senses.
:f the form you choose grants these #enefits, or a greater
a#ility of the same type, you gain the listed #enefit. :f the
form grants a lesser a#ility of the same type, you gain the
lesser a#ility instead. Jour #ase speed changes to match that
of the form you assume. :f the form grants a s)im or #urro)
speed, you maintain the a#ility to #reathe if you are
s)imming or #urro)ing. he (C for any of these a#ilities
e6uals your (C for the polymorph spell used to change you

:n addition to these #enefits, you gain any of the natural
attacks of the #ase creature, including proficiency in those
attacks. hese attacks are #ased on your #ase attack #onus,
modified #y your $trength or (exterity as appropriate, and
use your $trength modifier for determining damage #onuses.
:f a polymorph spell causes you to change size, apply the
size modifiers appropriately, changing your armor class,
attack #onus, Com#at Maneu*er 1onus, and $tealth skill
modifiers. Jour a#ility scores are not modified #y this

5nless other)ise noted, polymorph spells cannot #e used to

details can #e controlled, your appearance is al)ays that of a
generic mem#er of that creatureCs type. Polymorph spells

template or an ad*anced *ersion of a creature.
4hen you cast a polymorph spell that changes you into a
creature of the animal, dragon, elemental, magical #east,

any spells that re6uire material components 7unless you ha*e
the +sche) Materials or Aatural $pell feat9, and can only
cast spells )ith somatic or *er#al components if the form
you choose has the capa#ility to make such mo*ements or

su#?ect to this restriction as )ell, if they change you into a
form that is unlike your original form 7su#?ect to GM
discretion9. :f your ne) form does not cause your e6uipment
to meld into your form, the e6uipment resizes to match your

4hile under the effects of a polymorph spell, you lose all
extraordinary and supernatural a#ilities that depend on your
original form 7such as keen senses, scent, and dark*ision9, as
)ell as any natural attacks and mo*ement types possessed #y

Jou can only #e affected #y one polymorph spell at a time. :f
a ne) polymorph spell is cast on you 7or you acti*ate a

)hether or not to allo) it to affect you, taking the place of
the old spell. :n addition, other spells that change your size
ha*e no effect on you )hile you are under the effects of a

5nconscious creatures are automatically considered )illing,

action that does not pro*oke attacks of opportunity.
2ffectB $ome spells create or summon things rather than
affecting things that are already present.
Jou must designate the location )here these things are to
appear, either #y seeing it or defining it. 'ange determines
ho) far a)ay an effect can appear, #ut if the effect is mo#ile,
after it appears it can mo*e regardless of the spellCs range.
.ayB $ome effects are rays. Jou aim a ray as if using a
ranged )eapon, though typically you make a ranged touch
attack rather than a normal ranged attack. "s )ith a ranged
)eapon, you can fire into the dark or at an in*isi#le creature

)hich creatures or o#?ects the spell affects. he point of

difference is that instead of counting from the center of one
s6uare to the center of the next, you count from intersection

Jou can count diagonally across a s6uare, #ut remem#er that
e*ery second diagonal counts as & s6uares of distance. :f the
far edge of a s6uare is )ithin the spellCs area, anything )ithin
that s6uare is )ithin the spellCs area. :f the spellCs area only
touches the near edge of a s6uare, ho)e*er, anything )ithin

Burst, +!anation, or SpreadB Most spells that affect an area
function as a #urst, an emanation, or a spread. :n each case,
you select the spellCs point of origin and measure its effect
from that point.
" #urst spell affects )hate*er it catches in its area, including
creatures that you canCt see. :t canCt affect creatures )ith total
co*er from its point of origin 7in other )ords, its effects donCt
extend around corners9. he default shape for a #urst effect is
a sphere, #ut some #urst spells are specifically descri#ed as
cone.shaped. " #urstCs area defines ho) far from the point of
origin the spellCs effect extends.
"n emanation spell functions like a #urst spell, except that
the effect continues to radiate from the point of origin for the
duration of the spell. Most emanations are cones or spheres.
" spread spell extends out like a #urst #ut can turn corners.
Jou select the point of origin, and the spell spreads out a
gi*en distance in all directions. 3igure the area the spell
effect fills #y taking into account any turns the spell effect
takes.
Cone, Cylinder, &ine, or SphereB Most spells that affect an
area ha*e a particular shape.
" cone.shaped spell shoots a)ay from you in a 6uarter.circle
in the direction you designate. :t starts from any corner of
your s6uare and )idens out as it goes. Most cones are either
#ursts or emanations 7see a#o*e9, and thus )onCt go around
corners.
4hen casting a cylinder.shaped spell, you select the spellCs
point of origin. his point is the center of a horizontal circle,
and the spell shoots do)n from the circle, filling a cylinder.
" cylinder.shaped spell ignores any o#structions )ithin its
area.
" line.shaped spell shoots a)ay from you in a line in the
direction you designate. :t starts from any corner of your
s6uare and extends to the limit of its range or until it strikes a
#arrier that #locks line of effect. " line.shaped spell affects
all creatures in s6uares through )hich the line passes.

Arcane S0ells
4izards, sorcerers, and #ards cast arcane spells. Compared
to di*ine spells, arcane spells are more likely to produce
dramatic results.
'pell 'lot#B he *arious character class ta#les sho) ho)
many spells of each le*el a character can cast per day. hese
openings for daily spells are called spell slots. " spellcaster
al)ays has the option to fill a higher.le*el spell slot )ith a
lo)er.le*el spell. " spellcaster )ho lacks a high enough
a#ility score to cast spells that )ould other)ise #e his due
still gets the slots #ut must fill them )ith spells of lo)er
le*els.
Preparing Ai$ard 'pell#
" )izardCs le*el limits the num#er of spells he can prepare
and cast. -is high :ntelligence score might allo) him to
prepare a fe) extra spells. -e can prepare the same spell
more than once, #ut each preparation counts as one spell
to)ard his daily limit. o prepare a spell, the )izard must
ha*e an :ntelligence score of at least 1; G the spellCs le*el.
Re#tB o prepare his daily spells, a )izard must first sleep for
% hours. he )izard does not ha*e to slum#er for e*ery
minute of the time, #ut he must refrain from mo*ement,
com#at, spellcasting, skill use, con*ersation, or any other
fairly demanding physical or mental task during the rest
period. :f his rest is interrupted, each interruption adds 1 hour
to the total amount of time he has to rest in order to clear his
mind, and he must ha*e at least 1 hour of uninterrupted rest
immediately prior to preparing his spells. :f the character
does not need to sleep for some reason, he still must ha*e %
hours of restful calm #efore preparing any spells.
Recent Ca#ting 1imit)Re#t -nterruption#B :f a )izard has
cast spells recently, the drain on his resources reduces his
capacity to prepare ne) spells. 4hen he prepares spells for
the coming day, all the spells he has cast )ithin the last %
hours count against his daily limit.
Preparation 2nvironmentB o prepare any spell, a )izard
must ha*e enough peace, 6uiet, and comfort to allo) for
proper concentration. he )izardCs surroundings need not #e
luxurious, #ut they must #e free from distractions. +xposure
to inclement )eather pre*ents the necessary concentration,
as does any in?ury or failed sa*ing thro) the character might
experience )hile studying. 4izards also must ha*e access to
their spell#ooks to study from and sufficient light to read
them. here is one ma?or exceptionB a )izard can prepare a
read !aic spell e*en )ithout a spell#ook.
'pell Preparation ,imeB "fter resting, a )izard must study
his spell#ook to prepare any spells that day. :f he )ants to
prepare all his spells, the process takes 1 hour. Preparing
some smaller portion of his daily capacity takes a
proportionally smaller amount of time, #ut al)ays at least 15
minutes, the minimum time re6uired to achie*e the proper
mental state.
'pell 'election and PreparationB 5ntil he prepares spells
from his spell#ook, the only spells a )izard has a*aila#le to
cast are the ones that he already had prepared from the
pre*ious day and has not yet used. (uring the study period,
he chooses )hich spells to prepare. :f a )izard already has
spells prepared 7from the pre*ious day9 that he has not cast,
she can a#andon some or all of them to make room for ne)
spells.
4hen preparing spells for the day, a )izard can lea*e some
of these spell slots open. =ater during that day, he can repeat
the preparation process as often as he likes, time and
circumstances permitting. (uring these extra sessions of
preparation, the )izard can fill these unused spell slots. -e
cannot, ho)e*er, a#andon a pre*iously prepared spell to
replace it )ith another one or fill a slot that is empty #ecause
he has cast a spell in the meantime. hat sort of preparation
re6uires a mind fresh from rest. =ike the first session of the
day, this preparation takes at least 15 minutes, and it takes
longer if the )izard prepares more than one.6uarter of his
spells.
Prepared 'pell RetentionB Once a )izard prepares a spell, it
remains in his mind as a nearly cast spell until he uses the
prescri#ed components to complete and trigger it or until he
a#andons it. Certain other e*ents, such as the effects of
magic items or special attacks from monsters, can )ipe a
prepared spell from a characterCs mind.
Death and Prepared 'pell RetentionB :f a spellcaster dies,

.rcane !agical Ariting#
o record an arcane spell in )ritten form, a character uses
complex notation that descri#es the magical forces in*ol*ed
in the spell. he )riter uses the same system no matter )hat
her nati*e language or culture. -o)e*er, each character uses
the system in his o)n )ay. "nother personCs magical )riting

o decipher an arcane magical )riting 7such as a single spell
in anotherCs spell#ook or on a scroll9, a character must make
a $pellcraft check 7(C &; G the spellCs le*el9. :f the skill

particular spell again until the next day. " read !aic spell

Once a character deciphers a particular piece of magical
)riting, he does not need to decipher it again. (eciphering
magical )riting allo)s the reader to identify the spell and
gi*es some idea of its effects 7as explained in the spell
description9. :f the magical )riting is a scroll and the reader

Prestidigitations are minor tricks that no*ice spellcasters use
for practice. Once cast, a prestidiitation spell ena#les you to
perform simple magical effects for 1 hour. he effects are
minor and ha*e se*ere limitations. " prestidigitation can
slo)ly lift 1 pound of material. :t can color, clean, or soil
items in a 1.foot cu#e each round. :t can chill, )arm, or
fla*or 1 pound of nonli*ing material. :t cannot deal damage
or affect the concentration of spellcasters. Prestidiitation
can create small o#?ects, #ut they look crude and artificial.
he materials created #y a prestidiitation spell are
extremely fragile, and they cannot #e used as tools, )eapons,
or spell components. 3inally, prestidiitation lacks the po)er
to duplicate any other spell effects. "ny actual change to an

to that particular runeCs effects so long as the creature
remains )ithin 0; feet of the rune. :f the creature lea*es the

Jou also can attune any num#er of creatures to the sy!bol of
death, #ut doing this can extend the casting time. "ttuning
one or t)o creatures takes negligi#le time, and attuning a
small group 7as many as 1; creatures9 extends the casting
time to 1 hour. "ttuning a large group 7as many as &5

"s PCs gain le*els, the amount of treasure they carry and use
increases as )ell. he Pathfinder 'oleplaying Game assumes
that all PCs of e6ui*alent le*el ha*e roughly e6ual amounts
of treasure and magic items. $ince the primary income for a
PC deri*es from treasure and loot gained from ad*enturing,
itCs important to moderate the )ealth and hoards you place in
your ad*entures. o aid in placing treasure, the amount of
treasure and magic items the PCs recei*e for their ad*entures
is tied to the Challenge 'ating of the encounters they faceK
the higher an encounterCs C', the more treasure it can a)ard.
a#leB Character 4ealth #y =e*el lists the amount of treasure
each PC is expected to ha*e at a specific le*el. Aote that this
ta#le assumes a standard fantasy game. =o).fantasy games
might a)ard only half this *alue, )hile high.fantasy games
might dou#le the *alue. :t is assumed that some of this
treasure is consumed in the course of an ad*enture 7such as
potions and scrolls9, and that some of the less useful items
are sold for half *alue so more useful gear can #e purchased.
a#leB Character 4ealth #y =e*el can also #e used to #udget
gear for characters starting a#o*e 1st le*el, such as a ne)
character created to replace a dead one. Characters should
spend no more than half their total )ealth on any single item.
3or a #alanced approach, PCs that are #uilt after 1st le*el
should spend no more than &5I of their )ealth on )eapons,
&5I on armor and protecti*e de*ices, &5I on other magic
items, 15I on disposa#le items like potions, scrolls, and
)ands, and 1;I on ordinary gear and coins. (ifferent
character types might spend their )ealth differently than
these percentages suggest8 for example, arcane casters might
spend *ery little on )eapons #ut a great deal more on other
magic items and disposa#le items.
a#leB reasure >alues per +ncounter lists the amount of
treasure each encounter should a)ard #ased on the a*erage
le*el of the PCs and the speed of the campaignCs NP
progression 7slo), medium, or fast9. +asy encounters should
a)ard treasure one le*el lo)er than the PCsC a*erage le*el.
Challenging, hard, and epic encounters should a)ard treasure
one, t)o, or three le*els higher than the PCsC a*erage le*el,
respecti*ely. :f you are running a lo).fantasy game, cut these
*alues in half. :f you are running a high.fantasy game,
dou#le these *alues.
+ncounters against APCs typically a)ard three times the
treasure a monster.#ased encounter a)ards, due to APC gear.
o compensate, make sure the PCs face off against a pair of
additional encounters that a)ard little in the )ay of treasure.
"nimals, plants, constructs, mindless undead, oozes, and
traps are great Dlo) treasureF encounters. "lternati*ely, if the
PCs face a num#er of creatures )ith little or no treasure, they
should ha*e the opportunity to ac6uire a num#er of
significantly more *alua#le o#?ects sometime in the near
future to make up for the im#alance. "s a general rule, PCs
should not o)n any magic item )orth more than half their
total character )ealth, so make sure to check #efore
a)arding expensi*e magic items.

Of all the strange places that an ad*enturer might explore,
none is deadlier than the dungeon. hese la#yrinths, full of
deadly traps, hungry monsters, and priceless treasure, test
e*ery skill a character possesses. hese rules can apply to
dungeons of any type, from the )reck of a sunken ship to a
*ast ca*e complex.
,ype# of Dungeon#
he four #asic dungeon types are defined #y their current
status. Many dungeons are *ariations on these #asic types or
com#inations of more than one of them. $ometimes old
dungeons are used again and again #y different inha#itants
for different purposes.
Ruined 'tructureB Once occupied, this place is no)
a#andoned 7completely or in part9 #y its original creator or
creators, and other creatures ha*e )andered in. Many
su#terranean creatures look for a#andoned underground
constructions in )hich to make their lairs. "ny traps that
might exist ha*e pro#a#ly #een set off, #ut )andering #easts
might *ery )ell #e common.
Fccupied 'tructureB his type of dungeon is still in use.
Creatures 7usually intelligent9 li*e there, although they might
not #e the dungeonCs creators. "n occupied structure might
#e a home, a fortress, a temple, an acti*e mine, a prison, or a
head6uarters. his type of dungeon is less likely to ha*e
traps or )andering #easts, and more likely to ha*e organized
guardsK#oth on )atch and on patrol. raps or )andering
#easts that might #e encountered are usually under the
control of the occupants. Occupied structures ha*e
furnishings to suit the inha#itants, as )ell as decorations,
supplies, and the a#ility for occupants to mo*e around. he
inha#itants might ha*e a communication system, and they
almost certainly control an exit to the outside.
$ome dungeons are partially occupied and partially empty or
in ruins. :n such cases, the occupants are typically not the
original #uilders, #ut instead a group of intelligent creatures
that ha*e set up their #ase, lair, or fortification )ithin an
a#andoned dungeon.
'afe 'torageB 4hen people )ant to protect something, they
sometimes #ury it underground. 4hether the item they )ant
to protect is a fa#ulous treasure, a for#idden artifact, or the
dead #ody of an important figure, these *alua#le o#?ects are
placed )ithin a dungeon and surrounded #y #arriers, traps,
and guardians.
he safe storage dungeon is the most likely to ha*e traps #ut
the least likely to ha*e )andering #easts. his type of
dungeon is normally #uilt for function rather than
appearance, #ut sometimes it has ornamentation in the form
of statuary or painted )alls. his is particularly true of the
tom#s of important people.
$ometimes, ho)e*er, a *ault or a crypt is constructed in such
a )ay as to house li*ing guardians. he pro#lem )ith this
strategy is that something must #e done to keep the creatures
ali*e #et)een intrusion attempts. Magic is usually the #est
solution to pro*ide food and )ater for these creatures.
1uilders of *aults or tom#s often use undead creatures or
constructs, #oth of )hich ha*e no need for sustenance or
rest, to guard their dungeons. Magic traps can attack
intruders #y summoning monsters into the dungeon that
disappear )hen their task is done.
Natural Cavern Comple3B 5nderground ca*es pro*ide
homes for all sorts of su#terranean monsters. Created
naturally and connected #y la#yrinthine tunnel systems, these
ca*erns lack any sort of pattern, order, or decoration. 4ith no
intelligent force #ehind its construction, this type of dungeon
is the least likely to ha*e traps or e*en doors.
3ungi of all sorts thri*e in ca*es, sometimes gro)ing in huge
forests of mushrooms and puff#alls. $u#terranean predators
pro)l these forests, looking for )eaker creatures feeding
upon the fungi. $ome *arieties of fungus gi*e off a
phosphorescent glo), pro*iding a natural ca*ern complex
)ith its o)n limited light source. :n other areas, a dayliht
spell or similar magical effect can pro*ide enough light for
green plants to gro).
Aatural ca*ern complexes often connect )ith other types of
dungeons, the ca*es ha*ing #een disco*ered )hen the
manufactured dungeons )ere del*ed. " ca*ern complex can
connect t)o other)ise unrelated dungeons, sometimes
creating a strange mixed en*ironment. " natural ca*ern

effects. raps that attack )ith arro)s, s)eeping #lades, and

specific attack #onuses dictated #y the trapCs design. "
mechanical trap can #e constructed #y a PC through
successful use of the Craft 7traps9 skill 7see (esigning a rap
and the Craft skill description9.
Creatures that succeed on a Perception check detect a trap
#efore it is triggered. he (C of this check depends on the
trap itself. $uccess generally indicates that the creature has
detected the mechanism that acti*ates the trap, such as a
pressure plate, odd gears attached to a door handle, and the
like. 1eating this check #y 5 or more also gi*es some
indication of )hat the trap is designed to do.
!agicB Many spells can #e used to create dangerous traps.

Magic traps are further di*ided into spell traps and magic
de*ice traps. Magic de*ice traps initiate spell effects )hen
acti*ated, ?ust as )ands, rods, rings, and other magic items
do. Creating a magic de*ice trap re6uires the Craft 4ondrous
:tem feat.
$pell traps are simply spells that themsel*es function as
traps$ Creating a spell trap re6uires the ser*ices of a character
)ho can cast the needed spell or spells, )ho is usually either
the character creating the trap or an APC spellcaster hired for
that purpose.

,rigger
" trapCs trigger determines ho) it is sprung.
1ocationB " location trigger springs a trap )hen someone
stands in a particular s6uare.
Pro3imityB his trigger acti*ates the trap )hen a creature
approaches )ithin a certain distance of it. " proximity trigger
differs from a location trigger in that the creature need not #e
standing in a particular s6uare. Creatures that are flying can
spring a trap )ith a proximity trigger #ut not one )ith a
location trigger. Mechanical proximity triggers are extremely
sensiti*e to the slightest change in the air. his makes them
useful only in places such as crypts, )here the air is
unusually still.
he proximity trigger used most often for magic de*ice traps
is the alar! spell. 5nlike )hen the spell is cast, an alar!
spell used as a trigger can ha*e an area thatCs no larger than
the area the trap is meant to protect.
$ome magic de*ice traps ha*e special proximity triggers that
acti*ate only )hen certain kinds of creatures approach. 3or
example, a detect ood spell can ser*e as a proximity trigger
on an e*il altar, springing the attached trap only )hen
someone of good alignment gets close enough to it.
'oundB his trigger springs a magic trap )hen it detects any
sound. " sound trigger functions like an ear and has a G15
#onus on Perception checks. " successful $tealth check,
magical silence, and other effects that )ould negate hearing
defeat it. " trap )ith a sound trigger re6uires the casting of
clairaudience during its construction.
Di#ualB his trigger for magic traps )orks like an actual eye,
springing the trap )hene*er it DseesF something. " trap )ith
a *isual trigger re6uires the casting of arcane eye,
clair%oyance, or true seein during its construction. $ight
range and the Perception #onus conferred on the trap depend
on the spell chosen, as sho)n.

choose the true seein option or add dar"%ision to the trap as

0; feet.9 :f in*isi#ility, disguises, or illusions can fool the
spell #eing used, they can fool the *isual trigger as )ell.
Page /1&
,ouchB " touch trigger, )hich springs the trap )hen touched,
is one of the simplest kinds of trigger to construct. his
trigger may #e physically attached to the part of the
mechanism that deals the damage or it may not. Jou can
make a magic touch trigger #y adding alar! to the trap and
reducing the area of the effect to co*er only the trigger spot.
,imedB his trigger periodically springs the trap after a
certain duration has passed.
'pellB "ll spell traps ha*e this kind of trigger. he
appropriate spell descriptions explain the trigger conditions
for traps that contain spell triggers.
Duration
5nless other)ise stated, most traps ha*e a duration of
instantaneous8 once triggered, they ha*e their effect and then
stop functioning. $ome traps ha*e a duration measured in
rounds. $uch traps continue to ha*e their listed effect each
round at the top of the initiati*e order 7or )hene*er they
)ere acti*ated, if they )ere triggered during com#at9.
Re#et
" reset element is the set of conditions under )hich a trap
#ecomes ready to trigger again. 'esetting a trap usually takes
only a minute or so. 3or a trap )ith a more difficult reset
method, you should set the time and la#or re6uired.
No Re#etB $hort of completely re#uilding the trap, thereCs no
)ay to trigger it more than once. $pell traps ha*e no reset
element.
RepairB o get the trap functioning again, you must repair it.
'epairing a mechanical trap re6uires a Craft 7traps9 check
against a (C e6ual to the one for #uilding it. he cost for ra)
materials is one.fifth of the trapCs original market price. o
calculate ho) long it takes to fix a trap, use the same
calculations you )ould for #uilding it, #ut use the cost of the

!anualB 'esetting the trap re6uires someone to mo*e the

mechanical traps ha*e.

a timed inter*al.

for the caster to #ypass them.

2ffect
he effect of a trap is )hat happens to those )ho spring it.
his often takes the form of either damage or a spell effect,
#ut some traps ha*e special effects. " trap usually either
makes an attack roll or forces a sa*ing thro) to a*oid it.
Occasionally a trap uses #oth of these options, or neither 7see
Ae*er Miss9.
Pit#B hese are holes 7co*ered or not9 that characters can fall
into, causing them to take damage. " pit needs no attack roll,
#ut a successful 'eflex sa*e 7(C set #y the #uilder9 a*oids
it. Other sa*e.dependent mechanical traps also fall into this
category. 3alling into a pit deals 1d0 points of damage per 1;
feet of depth.
Pits in dungeons come in three #asic *arietiesB unco*ered,
co*ered, and chasms. Pits and chasms can #e defeated #y
?udicious application of the "cro#atics skill, the Clim# skill,
or *arious mechanical or magical means.
5nco*ered pits and natural chasms ser*e mainly to
discourage intruders from going a certain )ay, although they
cause much grief to characters )ho stum#le into them in the
dark, and they can greatly complicate near#y melee.
Co*ered pits are much more dangerous. hey can #e detected
)ith a (C &; Perception check, #ut only if the character is
taking the time to carefully examine the area #efore )alking
across it. " character )ho fails to detect a co*ered pit is still
entitled to a (C &; 'eflex sa*e to a*oid falling into it. :f she
)as running or mo*ing recklessly at the time, ho)e*er, she
gets no sa*ing thro) and falls automatically.
rap co*erings can #e as simple as piled refuse 7stra),
lea*es, sticks, gar#age9, a large rug, or an actual trap door
concealed to appear as a normal part of the floor. $uch a trap
door usually s)ings open )hen enough )eight 7usually
a#out 5; to %; pounds9 is placed upon it. (e*ious trap
#uilders sometimes design trap doors so they spring #ack
shut after they open. he trap door might lock once itCs #ack
in place, lea*ing the stranded character )ell and truly
trapped. Opening such a trap door is ?ust as difficult as
opening a regular door 7assuming the trapped character can
reach it9, and a (C 1, $trength check is needed to keep a
spring.loaded door open.
Pit traps often ha*e something nastier than ?ust a hard floor at
the #ottom. " trap designer might put spikes, monsters, or a
Page /1,
pool of acid, la*a, or e*en )ater at the #ottom. 3or rules on
pit spikes and other such add.ons, see the Miscellaneous
rap 3eatures section.
Monsters sometimes li*e in pits. "ny monster that can fit
into the pit might ha*e #een placed there #y the dungeonCs
designer, or might simply ha*e fallen in and not #een a#le to
clim# #ack out.
" secondary trap, mechanical or magical, at the #ottom of a
pit can #e particularly deadly. "cti*ated #y a falling *ictim,
the secondary trap attacks the already in?ured character )hen

)hich are explicitly designed to pre*ent the sort of killing
and looting that ad*enturers engage in all the time. +*en so,
most citiesC la)s recognize monsters as a threat to the
sta#ility the city relies on, and prohi#itions a#out murder
rarely apply to monsters such as a#errations or e*il outsiders.
Most e*il humanoids, ho)e*er, are typically protected #y the
same la)s that protect all the citizens of the city. -a*ing an
e*il alignment is not a crime 7except in some se*erely

ad*enturers encounter an e*ildoer in the act of perpetrating
some heinous e*il upon the populace of the city, the la)
tends to fro)n on the sort of *igilante ?ustice that lea*es the

The Planes
4hile endless ad*enture a)aits out in the gameKthere are
other )orlds #eyond theseKother continents, other planets,
other galaxies. Jet e*en #eyond this existence of countless
planets exist more )orldsKentirely different dimensions of
reality kno)n as the planes of existence. +xcept for rare
linking points that allo) tra*el #et)een them, each plane is
effecti*ely its o)n uni*erse )ith its o)n natural la)s.
Collecti*ely, the entirety of these other dimensions and
planes is kno)n as the Great 1eyond.
"lthough the num#er of planes is limited only #y
imagination, they can all #e categorized into fi*e general
typesB the Material Plane, the transiti*e planes, the :nner
Planes, the Outer Planes, and the countless demiplanes.
!aterial PlaneB he Material Plane tends to #e the most
+arth.like of all planes and operates under the same set of
natural la)s that our o)n real )orld does. he DsizeF of the
Material Plane depends upon the campaignKit might
conform only to the single )orld on )hich your game is set,
or it might encompass an entire uni*erse of planets, moons,
stars, and galaxies. he Material Plane is the default plane
for the Pathfinder 'oleplaying Game.
,ran#itive Plane#B ransiti*e planes ha*e one important
common characteristicB they Do*erlapF )ith other planes, and
as such can #e used to tra*el #et)een these o*erlapping
realities. hese planes ha*e the strongest regular interaction
)ith the Material Plane and are often accessed #y using
*arious spells. hey ha*e nati*e inha#itants as )ell. +xample
transiti*e planes include the follo)ing.
Astral PlaneB " sil*ery *oid that connects the Material and
:nner Planes to the Outer Planes, the astral plane is the
medium through )hich the souls of the departed tra*el to the
afterlife. " tra*eler in the "stral Plane sees the plane as a *ast
empty *oid periodically dotted )ith tiny motes of physical
reality cal*ed off of the countless planes it o*erlaps.
Po)erful spellcasters utilize the "stral Plane for a tiny
fraction of a second )hen they teleport, or they can use it to
tra*el #et)een planes )ith spells like astral pro:ection.
+thereal PlaneB he +thereal Plane is a ghostly realm that
exists as a #uffer #et)een the Material Plane and the $hado)
Plane, o*erlapping each. " tra*eler in the +thereal plane
experiences the real )orld as if the )orld )ere an
insu#stantial ghost, and can mo*e through solid o#?ects
)ithout #eing seen in the real )orld. $trange creatures d)ell
in the +thereal Plane, as )ell as ghosts and dreams, many of
)hich can sometimes extend their influence into the real
)orld in mysterious and terrifying )ays. Po)erful
spellcasters utilize the +thereal Plane )ith spells like blin",
etherealness, and ethereal :aunt.
Shado# PlaneB he eerie and deadly $hado) Plane is a grim,
colorless DduplicateF of the Material Plane. :t o*erlaps )ith
Page /,/
the Material Plane #ut is smaller in size, and is in many )ays
a )arped and mocking DreflectionF of the Material Plane,
one infused )ith negati*e energy 7see :nner Planes9 and
ser*ing as home for strange monsters like undead shado)s
and )orse. Po)erful spellcasters utilize the $hado) Plane to
s)iftly tra*el immense distances on the Material Plane )ith
shado# #al", or dra) upon the muta#le essence of the
$hado) Plane to create 6uasi.real effects and creatures )ith
spells like shado# e%ocation or shades.
-nner Plane#B he :nner Planes contain the #uilding #locks
of realityKitCs easiest to en*ision these planes as
DcontainingF the Material Plane, #ut they do not o*erlap )ith
the Material Plane as do the transiti*e planes. +ach :nner
Plane is made up of a single type of energy or element that
o*er)helms all others. he nati*es of a particular :nner Plane
are made of the same energy or element as the plane itself.
+xample :nner Planes include the follo)ing.
+le!ental PlanesB he four classic :nner Planes are the Plane
of "ir, the Plane of +arth, the Plane of 3ire, and the Plane of
4aterKit is from these planes that the creatures kno)n as
elementals hail, yet they house many other strange denizens
as )ell, such as the genie races, strange metal.eating xorns,
unseen in*isi#le stalkers, and mischie*ous mephits.
+nery PlanesB )o energy planes existKthe Positi*e
+nergy Plane 7from )hich the animating spark of life hails9
and the Aegati*e +nergy Plane 7from )hich the sinister taint
of undeath hails9. +nergy from #oth planes infuses reality,
the e## and flo) of this energy running through all creatures
to #ear them along the ?ourney from #irth to death. Clerics
utilize po)er from these planes )hen they channel energy.
Futer Plane#B 1eyond the realm of the mortal )orld, #eyond
the #uilding #locks of reality, lie the Outer Planes. >ast
#eyond imagining, it is to these realms that the souls of the
dead tra*el, and it is upon these realms in )hich the gods
themsel*es hold court. +ach of the Outer Planes has an
alignment, representing a particular moral or ethical outlook,
and the nati*es of each plane tend to #eha*e in agreement
)ith that planeCs alignment. he Outer Planes are also the
final resting place of souls from the Material Plane, )hether
that final rest takes the form of calm introspection or eternal
damnation. he denizens of the Outer Planes form the
mythologies of ci*ilization, comprising angels and demons,
titans and de*ils, and countless other incarnations of
possi#ility. +ach campaign )orld should ha*e different Outer
Planes to match its themes and needs, #ut classic Outer
Planes include la)ful good -ea*en, the chaos and e*il of the
"#yss, the regimented la)ful e*il of -ell, and the capricious
freedom and ?oys of chaotic good +lysium. Po)erful
spellcasters can contact the Outer Planes for ad*ice or
guidance )ith spells like co!!une and contact outer plane,
or can con?ure allies )ith spells like planar ally or su!!on
!onster.
Demiplane#B his catchall category co*ers all
extradimensional spaces that function like planes #ut ha*e
measura#le size and limited access. Other kinds of planes are
theoretically infinite in size, #ut a demiplane might #e only a
fe) hundred feet across. here are countless demiplanes
adrift in reality, and )hile most are connected to the "stral
Plane and +thereal Plane, some are cut off entirely from the
transiti*e planes and can only #e accessed #y )ell.hidden
portals or o#scure magic spells.
1ayered Plane#
:nfinities may #e #roken into smaller infinities, and planes
into smaller, related planes. hese layers are effecti*ely
separate planes of existence, and each layer can ha*e its o)n
features and 6ualities. =ayers are connected to each other
through a *ariety of planar gates, natural *ortices, paths, and
shifting #orders.
"ccess to a layered plane from else)here usually happens on
the first layer of the plane, )hich can #e either the top or
#ottom layer, depending on the specific plane. Most fixed
access points 7such as portals and natural *ortices9 reach this
layer, )hich makes it the gate)ay for other layers of the
plane. he plane shift spell generally deposits the spellcaster
on the first layer of the plane.
5o6 Plane# -nteract
)o planes that are separate do not o*erlap or directly
connect to each other. hey are like planets in different
or#its. he only )ay to get from one separate plane to the
other is to go through a third plane, such as a ransiti*e
Plane.
Coterminou# Plane#B Planes that touch at specific points are
coterminous. 4here they touch, a connection exists, and
tra*elers can lea*e one reality #ehind and enter the other.
Coe3i#tent Plane#B :f a link #et)een t)o planes can #e

.sing Items
o use a magic item, it must #e acti*ated, although
sometimes acti*ation simply means putting a ring on your
finger. $ome items, once donned, function constantly. :n
most cases, though, using an item re6uires a standard action
that does not pro*oke attacks of opportunity. 1y contrast,
spell completion items are treated like spells in com#at and
do pro*oke attacks of opportunity.
"cti*ating a magic item is a standard action unless the item
description indicates other)ise. -o)e*er, the casting time of
a spell is the time re6uired to acti*ate the same po)er in an
item, regardless of the type of magic item, unless the item
description specifically states other)ise.
he four )ays to acti*ate magic items are descri#ed #elo).
'pell CompletionB his is the acti*ation method for scrolls.
" scroll is a spell that is mostly finished. he preparation is
done for the caster, so no preparation time is needed
#eforehand as )ith normal spellcasting. "ll thatCs left to do is
perform the finishing parts of the spellcasting 7the final
gestures, )ords, and so on9. o use a spell completion item
safely, a character must #e of high enough le*el in the right
class to cast the spell already. :f he canCt already cast the
spell, thereCs a chance heCll make a mistake. "cti*ating a spell
completion item is a standard action 7or the spellCs casting
time, )hiche*er is longer9 and pro*okes attacks of
opportunity exactly as casting a spell does.
'pell ,riggerB $pell trigger acti*ation is similar to spell
completion, #ut itCs e*en simpler. Ao gestures or spell
finishing is needed, ?ust a special kno)ledge of spellcasting
that an appropriate character )ould kno), and a single )ord
that must #e spoken. $pell trigger items can #e used #y
anyone )hose class can cast the corresponding spell. his is
the case e*en for a character )ho canCt actually cast spells,
such as a ,rd.le*el paladin. he user must still determine
)hat spell is stored in the item #efore she can acti*ate it.
"cti*ating a spell trigger item is a standard action and does
not pro*oke attacks of opportunity.
Command AordB :f no acti*ation method is suggested
either in the magic item description or #y the nature of the
item, assume that a command )ord is needed to acti*ate it.
Command )ord acti*ation means that a character speaks the
)ord and the item acti*ates. Ao other special kno)ledge is
needed.
" command )ord can #e a real )ord, #ut )hen this is the
case, the holder of the item runs the risk of acti*ating the
item accidentally #y speaking the )ord in normal
con*ersation. More often, the command )ord is some
seemingly nonsensical )ord, or a )ord or phrase from an
ancient language no longer in common use. "cti*ating a
command )ord magic item is a standard action and does not
pro*oke attacks of opportunity.
$ometimes the command )ord to acti*ate an item is )ritten
right on the item. Occasionally, it might #e hidden )ithin a
pattern or design engra*ed on, car*ed into, or #uilt into the
item, or the item might #ear a clue to the command )ord.
he <no)ledge 7arcana9 and <no)ledge 7history9 skills
might #e useful in helping to identify command )ords or
deciphering clues regarding them. " successful check against
(C ,; is needed to come up )ith the )ord itself. :f that
check is failed, succeeding on a second check 7(C &59 might
pro*ide some insight into a clue. he spells detect !aic,
identify, and analy<e d#eo!er all re*eal command )ords if
the properties of the item are successfully identified.
H#e .ctivatedB his type of item simply has to #e used in
order to acti*ate it. " character has to drink a potion, s)ing a
s)ord, interpose a shield to deflect a #lo) in com#at, look
through a lens, sprinkle dust, )ear a ring, or don a hat. 5se
acti*ation is generally straightfor)ard and self.explanatory.
Many use.acti*ated items are o#?ects that a character )ears.
Continually functioning items are practically al)ays items
that one )ears. " fe) must simply #e in the characterCs
possession 7meaning on his person9. -o)e*er, some items
made for )earing must still #e acti*ated. "lthough this
acti*ation sometimes re6uires a command )ord 7see a#o*e9,
usually it means mentally )illing the acti*ation to happen.
he description of an item states )hether a command )ord is
needed in such a case.
5nless stated other)ise, acti*ating a use.acti*ated magic
item is either a standard action or not an action at all and
does not pro*oke attacks of opportunity, unless the use
in*ol*es performing an action that pro*okes an attack of
Page //%
opportunity in itself. :f the use of the item takes time #efore a
magical effect occurs, then use acti*ation is a standard
action. :f the itemCs acti*ation is su#sumed in its use and
takes no extra time use, acti*ation is not an action at all.
5se acti*ation doesnCt mean that if you use an item, you
automatically kno) )hat it can do. Jou must kno) 7or at
least guess9 )hat the item can do and then use the item in
order to acti*ate it, unless the #enefit of the item comes
automatically, such as from drinking a potion or s)inging a
s)ord.

Damaging )agic Items
" magic item doesnCt need to make a sa*ing thro) unless it is

Magic items, unless other)ise noted, take damage as

continues to function, #ut if it is destroyed, all its magical
po)er is lost. Magic items that take damage in excess of half
their total hit points, #ut not more than their total hit points,
gain the #roken condition, and might not function properly.

casting time of less than 1 minute and targets one or more
creatures. he price of a potion is e6ual to the le*el of the

created at the lo)est possi#le caster le*el for each
spellcasting class. Aote that some spells appear at different
le*els for different casters. he le*el of such spells depends
on the caster #re)ing the potion.
Potions are like spells cast upon the im#i#er. he character
taking the potion doesnCt get to make any decisions a#out the
effectKthe caster )ho #re)ed the potion has already done
so. he drinker of a potion is #oth the effecti*e target and the

le*el, the drinker still controls the effect9.
he person applying an oil is the effecti*e caster, #ut the
o#?ect is the target.

s)allo)s the potion or smears on the oil. he follo)ing rules
go*ern potion and oil use.
(rinking a potion or using an oil is a standard action. he
potion or oil takes effect immediately. 5sing a potion or oil
pro*okes attacks of opportunity. "n enemy may direct an
attack of opportunity against the potion or oil container
rather than against the character. " successful attack of this
sort can destroy the container, pre*enting the character from
drinking the potion or applying the oil.
" creature must #e a#le to s)allo) a potion or smear on an
oil. 1ecause of this, incorporeal creatures cannot use potions
or oils. "ny corporeal creature can im#i#e a potion or use an

" character can carefully administer a potion to an

" scroll is a spell 7or collection of spells9 that has #een stored
in )ritten form. " spell on a scroll can #e used only once.
he )riting *anishes from the scroll )hen the spell is
acti*ated. 5sing a scroll is #asically like casting a spell. he
price of a scroll is e6ual to the le*el of the spell L the
creatorCs caster le*el L &5 gp. :f the scroll has a material
component cost, it is added to the #ase price and cost to
create. a#leB $crolls gi*es sample prices for scrolls created
at the lo)est possi#le caster le*el for each spellcasting class.
Aote that some spells appear at different le*els for different
casters. he le*el of such spells depends on the caster
scri#ing the scroll.
Phy#ical De#criptionB " scroll is a hea*y sheet of fine
*ellum or high.6uality paper. "n area a#out %.1@& inches
)ide and 11 inches long is sufficient to hold one spell. he
sheet is reinforced at the top and #ottom )ith strips of leather
slightly longer than the sheet is )ide. " scroll holding more
than one spell has the same )idth 7a#out %.1@& inches9 #ut is
an extra foot or so long for each additional spell. $crolls that
hold three or more spells are usually fitted )ith reinforcing
rods at each end rather than simple strips of leather. " scroll
has "C 2, 1 hit point, hardness ;, and a #reak (C of %.
o protect it from )rinkling or tearing, a scroll is rolled up
from #oth ends to form a dou#le cylinder. 7his also helps
the user unroll the scroll 6uickly.9 he scroll is placed in a
tu#e of i*ory, ?ade, leather, metal, or )ood. Most scroll cases
are inscri#ed )ith magic sym#ols )hich often identify the
o)ner or the spells stored on the scrolls inside. he sym#ols
sometimes hide magic traps.
.ctivationB o acti*ate a scroll, a spellcaster must read the
spell )ritten on it. his in*ol*es se*eral steps and conditions.
'ecipher the 9ritinB he )riting on a scroll must #e
deciphered #efore a character can use it or kno) exactly
)hat spell it contains. his re6uires a read !aic spell or a
successful $pellcraft check 7(C &; G spell le*el9.
(eciphering a scroll is a full.round action.
(eciphering a scroll to determine its contents does not
acti*ate its magic unless it is a specially prepared cursed
scroll. " character can decipher the )riting on a scroll in
ad*ance so that she can proceed directly to the next step
)hen the time comes to use the scroll.
Acti%ate the SpellB "cti*ating a scroll re6uires reading the
spell from the scroll. he character must #e a#le to see and
read the )riting on the scroll. "cti*ating a scroll spell
re6uires no material components or focus. 7he creator of the
scroll pro*ided these )hen scri#ing the scroll.9 Aote that
some spells are effecti*e only )hen cast on an item or items.
:n such a case, the scroll user must pro*ide the item )hen
acti*ating the spell. "cti*ating a scroll spell is su#?ect to
disruption ?ust as casting a normally prepared spell )ould #e.
5sing a scroll is like casting a spell for purposes of arcane
spell failure chance.
o ha*e any chance of acti*ating a scroll spell, the scroll user
must meet the follo)ing re6uirements.
he spell must #e of the correct type 7arcane or
di*ine9. "rcane spellcasters 7)izards, sorcerers, and
#ards9 can only use scrolls containing arcane spells,
and di*ine spellcasters 7clerics, druids, paladins, and
rangers9 can only use scrolls containing di*ine
spells. 7he type of scroll a character creates is also
determined #y his class.9
he user must ha*e the spell on her class list.
he user must ha*e the re6uisite a#ility score.
:f the user meets all the re6uirements noted a#o*e, and her
caster le*el is at least e6ual to the spellCs caster le*el, she can
automatically acti*ate the spell )ithout a check. :f she meets
all three re6uirements #ut her o)n caster le*el is lo)er than
the scroll spellCs caster le*el, then she has to make a caster
le*el check 7(C S scrollCs caster le*el G 19 to cast the spell

successfully. :f she fails, she must make a (C 5 4isdom
check to a*oid a mishap 7see $croll Mishaps9. " natural roll
of 1 al)ays fails, )hate*er the modifiers. "cti*ating a scroll
is a standard action 7or the spellCs casting time, )hiche*er is
longer9 and it pro*okes attacks of opportunity exactly as
casting a spell does.
'eter!ine +ffectB " spell successfully acti*ated from a scroll
)orks exactly like a spell prepared and cast the normal )ay.
"ssume the scroll spellCs caster le*el is al)ays the minimum
le*el re6uired to cast the spell for the character )ho scri#ed
the scroll, unless the scri#er specifically desired other)ise.
he )riting for an acti*ated spell disappears from the scroll
as the spell is cast.
Scroll MishapsB 4hen a mishap occurs, the spell on the scroll
has a re*ersed or harmful effect. Possi#le mishaps are gi*en
#elo).
" surge of uncontrolled magical energy deals 1d0
points of damage per spell le*el to the scroll user.
$pell strikes the scroll user or an ally instead of the
intended target, or a random target near#y if the
scroll user )as the intended recipient.
$pell takes effect at some random location )ithin
spell range.
$pellCs effect on the target is contrary to the spellCs
normal effect.
he scroll user suffers some minor #ut #izarre effect
related to the spell in some )ay. Most such effects
should last only as long as the original spellCs
duration, or &d1; minutes for instantaneous spells.
$ome innocuous item or items appear in the spellCs
area.
$pell has delayed effect. $ometime )ithin the next
1d1& hours, the spell acti*ates. :f the scroll user )as
the intended recipient, the spell takes effect
normally. :f the user )as not the intended recipient,
the spell goes off in the general direction of the
original recipient or target, up to the spellCs
maximum range, if the target has mo*ed a)ay.

" staff is a long shaft that stores se*eral spells. 5nlike
)ands, )hich can contain a )ide *ariety of spells, each staff
is of a certain kind and holds specific spells. " staff has 1;
charges )hen created.
Phy#ical De#criptionB " typical staff measures any)here
from / feet to ! feet long and is & inches to , inches thick,
)eighing a#out 5 pounds. Most sta*es are )ood, #ut an
exotic fe) are #one, metal, or e*en glass. " staff often has a
gem or some de*ice at its tip or is shod in metal at one or
#oth ends. $ta*es are often decorated )ith car*ings or runes.
" typical staff is like a )alking stick, 6uarterstaff, or cudgel.
:t has "C !, 1; hit points, hardness 5, and a #reak (C of &/.
.ctivationB $ta*es use the spell trigger acti*ation method, so
casting a spell from a staff is usually a standard action that
doesnCt pro*oke attacks of opportunity. 7:f the spell #eing
cast has a longer casting time than 1 standard action,
ho)e*er, it takes that long to cast the spell from a staff.9 o
acti*ate a staff, a character must hold it forth in at least one
hand 7or )hate*er passes for a hand, for nonhumanoid
creatures9.
'pecial Jualitie#B 'oll dI. " ;1H,; result indicates that
something 7a design, inscription, or the like9 pro*ides some
clue to the staff Cs function, and ,1H1;; indicates no special
6ualities.
H#ing 'tave#B $ta*es use the )ielderCs a#ility score and
rele*ant feats to set the (C for sa*es against their spells.
5nlike )ith other sorts of magic items, the )ielder can use
his caster le*el )hen acti*ating the po)er of a staff if itCs
higher than the caster le*el of the staff.
his means that sta*es are far more potent in the hands of a
Page /%!
po)erful spellcaster. 1ecause they use the )ielderCs a#ility
score to set the sa*e (C for the spell, spells from a staff are
often harder to resist than those from other magic items,
)hich use the minimum a#ility score re6uired to cast the
spell. Aot only are aspects of the spell dependent on caster
le*el 7range, duration, and so on9 potentially higher, #ut
spells from a staff are also harder to dispel and ha*e a #etter
chance of o*ercoming a targetCs spell resistance.
$ta*es hold a maximum of 1; charges. +ach spell cast from a
staff consumes one or more charges. 4hen a staff runs out of
charges, it cannot #e used until it is recharged. +ach
morning, )hen a spellcaster prepares spells or regains spell
slots, he can also im#ue one staff )ith a portion of his po)er
so long as one or more of the spells cast #y the staff is on his
spell list and he is capa#le of casting at least one of the
spells. :m#uing a staff )ith this po)er restores one charge to
the staff, #ut the caster must forgo one prepared spell or spell
slot of a le*el e6ual to the highest.le*el spell cast #y the
staff. 3or example, a 2th.le*el )izard )ith a staff of fire
could im#ue the staff )ith one charge per day #y using up
one of his /th.le*el spells. " staff cannot gain more than one
charge per day and a caster cannot im#ue more than one staff
per day.
3urthermore, a staff can hold a spell of any le*el, unlike a
)and, )hich is limited to spells of /th le*el or lo)er. he

)eapons that impose penalties on attack and damage rolls
rather than #onuses. Oust as a character shouldnCt necessarily

4hile item creation costs are handled in detail #elo), note

item. " creator can create an item at a lo)er caster le*el than
her o)n, #ut ne*er lo)er than the minimum le*el needed to
cast the needed spell. 5sing metamagic feats, a caster can
place spells in items at a higher le*el than normal.
Magic supplies for items are al)ays half of the #ase price in
gp. 3or many items, the market price e6uals the #ase price.
"rmor, shields, )eapons, and items )ith *alue independent
of their magically enhanced properties add their item cost to
the market price. he item cost does not influence the #ase
price 7)hich determines the cost of magic supplies9, #ut it
does increase the final market price.
:n addition, some items cast or replicate spells )ith costly
material components. 3or these items, the market price
e6uals the #ase price plus an extra price for the spell
component costs. he cost to create these items is the magic
supplies cost plus the costs for the components. (escriptions

.ffliction#
3rom curses to poisons to diseases, there are a num#er of
afflictions that can affect a creature. 4hile each of these
afflictions has a different effect, they all function using the
same #asic system. "ll afflictions grant a sa*ing thro) )hen
they are contracted. :f successful, the creature does not suffer
from the affliction and does not need to make any further
rolls. :f the sa*ing thro) is a failure, the creature falls *ictim
to the affliction and must deal )ith its effects.
"fflictions re6uire a creature to make a sa*ing thro) after a
period of time to a*oid taking certain penalties. 4ith most
afflictions, if a num#er of sa*ing thro)s are made
consecuti*ely, the affliction is remo*ed and no further sa*es
are necessary. $ome afflictions, usually supernatural ones,
cannot #e cured through sa*ing thro)s alone and re6uire the
aid of po)erful magic to remo*e. +ach affliction is presented
as a short #lock of information to help you #etter ad?udicate
its results.
NameB his is the name of the affliction.
,ypeB his is the type of the affliction, such as curse, disease,
or poison. :t might also include the means #y )hich it is
contracted, such as contact, ingestion, inhalation, in?ury,
spell, or trap.
'aveB his gi*es the type of sa*e necessary to a*oid
contracting the affliction, as )ell as the (C of that sa*e.
5nless other)ise noted, this is also the sa*e to a*oid the
afflictionCs effects once it is contracted, as )ell as the (C of
any caster le*el checks needed to end the affliction through
magic, such as re!o%e curse or neutrali<e poison.
Fn#etB $ome afflictions ha*e a *aria#le amount of time
#efore they set in. Creatures that come in contact )ith an
affliction )ith an onset time must make a sa*ing thro)
immediately. $uccess means that the affliction is a*oided and
no further sa*ing thro)s must #e made. 3ailure means that
the creature has contracted the affliction and must #egin
making additional sa*es after the onset period has elapsed.
he afflictionCs effect does not occur until after the onset
period has elapsed and then only if further sa*ing thro)s are
failed.
&re>uencyB his is ho) often the periodic sa*ing thro)
must #e attempted after the affliction has #een contracted
7after the onset time, if the affliction has any9. 4hile some
afflictions last until they are cured, others end prematurely,
e*en if the character is not cured through other means. :f an
affliction ends after a set amount of time, it )ill #e noted in
the fre6uency. 3or example, a disease )ith a fre6uency of
D1@dayF lasts until cured, #ut a poison )ith a fre6uency of
D1@round for 0 roundsF ends after 0 rounds ha*e passed.
"fflictions )ithout a fre6uency occur only once,
immediately upon contraction 7or after the onset time if one
is listed9.
2ffectB his is the effect that the character suffers each time
if he fails his sa*ing thro) against the affliction. Most
afflictions cause a#ility damage or hit point damage. hese
effects are cumulati*e, #ut they can #e cured normally. Other
Page 501
afflictions cause the creature to take penalties or other
effects. hese effects are sometimes cumulati*e, )ith the rest
only affecting the creature if it failed its most recent sa*e.
$ome afflictions ha*e different effects after the first sa*e is
failed. hese afflictions ha*e an initial effect, )hich occurs
)hen the first sa*e is failed, and a secondary effect, )hen
additional sa*es are failed, as noted in the text. -it point and
a#ility score damage caused #y an affliction cannot #e healed
naturally )hile the affliction persists.
CureB his tells you ho) the affliction is cured. Commonly,
this is a num#er of sa*ing thro)s that must #e made
consecuti*ely. +*en if the affliction has a limited fre6uency,
it might #e cured prematurely if enough sa*ing thro)s are
made. -it point damage and a#ility score damage is not
remo*ed )hen an affliction is cured. $uch damage must #e
healed normally. "fflictions )ithout a cure entry can only #e
cured through po)erful spells, such as neutrali<e poison and
re!o%e curse. Ao matter ho) many sa*ing thro)s are made,
these afflictions continue to affect the target.
-e failed a (C 15 3ortitude sa*e to a*oid contracting it, so
after the onset period of 1d, days has passed, he must make
another (C 15 3ortitude sa*e to a*oid taking 1d0 points of
$trength damage. 3rom this point on)ard, he must make a
(C 15 3ortitude sa*e each day 7according to the diseaseCs
fre6uency9 to a*oid further $trength damage. :f, on t)o
consecuti*e days, he makes his 3ortitude sa*es, he is cured
of the disease and any damage it caused #egins to heal as
normal.
Cur#e#
Careless rogues plundering a tom#, drunken heroes insulting
a po)erful )izard, and foolhardy ad*enturers )ho pick up
ancient s)ords all might suffer from curses. hese magic
afflictions can ha*e a )ide *ariety of effects, from a simple
penalty to certain checks to transforming the *ictim into a
toad. $ome e*en cause the afflicted to slo)ly rot a)ay,
lea*ing nothing #ehind #ut dust. 5nlike other afflictions,
most curses cannot #e cured through a num#er of successful
sa*ing thro)s. Curses can #e cured through magic, ho)e*er,
usually *ia spells such as re!o%e curse and brea"
enchant!ent. 4hile some curses cause a progressi*e
deterioration, others inflict a static penalty from the moment
they are contracted, neither fading o*er time nor gro)ing
)orse. :n addition, there are a num#er of magic items that act
like curses. $ee Magic :tems for a description of these cursed
items.

Ao other affliction is so pre*alent as poison. 3rom the fangs
of a *iper to the ichor.stained assassinCs #lade, poison is a
constant threat. Poisons can #e cured #y successful sa*ing
thro)s and spells such as neutrali<e poison.
Contact poisons are contracted the moment someone touches
the poison )ith his #are skin. $uch poisons can #e used as
in?ury poisons. Contact poisons usually ha*e an onset time of
1 minute and a fre6uency of 1 minute. :ngested poisons are
contracted )hen a creature eats or drinks the poison.
:ngested poisons usually ha*e an onset time of 1; minutes
and a fre6uency of 1 minute. :n?ury poisons are primarily
contracted through the attacks of certain creatures and
through )eapons coated in the toxin. :n?ury poisons do not
usually ha*e an onset time and ha*e a fre6uency of 1 round.
:nhaled poisons are contracted the moment a creature enters
an area containing such poisons. Most inhaled poisons fill a
*olume e6ual to a 1;.foot cu#e per dose. Creatures can
attempt to hold their #reaths )hile inside to a*oid inhaling
the toxin. Creatures holding their #reaths recei*e a 5;I
chance of not ha*ing to make a 3ortitude sa*e each round.
$ee the rules for holding your #reath and suffocation in
+n*ironment. Aote that a character that )ould normally
suffocate )hile attempting to hold its #reath instead #egins to
#reathe normally again.
5nlike other afflictions, multiple doses of the same poison
stack. Poisons deli*ered #y in?ury and contact cannot inflict
more than one dose of poison at a time, #ut inhaled and
ingested poisons can inflict multiple doses at once. +ach
additional dose extends the total duration of the poison 7as
noted under fre6uency9 #y half its total duration. :n addition,
each dose of poison increases the (C to resist the poison #y
G&. his increase is cumulati*e. Multiple doses do not alter
the cure conditions of the poison, and meeting these
conditions ends the affliction for all the doses. 3or example,
Page 50,
a character is #it three times in the same round #y a trio of
Medium monstrous spiders, in?ecting him )ith three doses of
Medium spider *enom. he unfortunate character must make
a (C 1% 3ortitude sa*e for the next % rounds. 3ortunately,
?ust one successful sa*e cures the character of all three doses
of the poison.
"pplying poison to a )eapon or single piece of ammunition
is a standard action. 4hene*er a character applies or readies
a poison for use there is a 5I chance that he exposes himself
to the poison and must sa*e against the poison as normal.
his does not consume the dose of poison. 4hene*er a
character attacks )ith a poisoned )eapon, if the attack roll
results in a natural 1, he exposes himself to the poison. his
consumes the poison on the )eapon. Characters )ith the
poison use class feature do not risk accidentally poisoning
themsel*es.
Poisons can #e made using Craft 7alchemy9. he (C to make
a poison is e6ual to its 3ortitude sa*e (C. 'olling a natural 1
on a Craft skill check )hile making a poison exposes the
crafter to the poison. Crafters )ith the poison use class
feature do not risk poisoning themsel*es )hen using Craft to
make poison.
he follo)ing samples represent ?ust some of the
possi#ilities )hen creating poisons.
