My group is thinking about switching from 5E to Pathfinder. I've never played, but from what I've seen and heard it is a rules-heavy/"crunchy" system, much more so than 5E, so everyone uses computer-based character sheets, a VTT etc.
I do not own a laptop or a tablet.
Is it reasonable to attempt your very first #Pathfinder2e adventure with only pen and paper? Or will we get bogged down with looking up rules all the time?

Lashunta Weekend Inspiration, Part ~Zaea~
Artist: Viktor Kryzhanivsky

How much do spiritual enlightenment and psychic empowerment align or not among the Lashunta? Are they one and the same, similar paths that diverge at some point, or can someone pursue one but not the other?

Castrovel Weekend Inspiration, Part ~Zhoa~
Artist: Ioann Lossel

~Eazumae~ - Mother-Milktree - was the first milktree planted by Greenmother Herself, and furthermore is the mother of the Lashunta species, when the tree bore the first Damaya from a teatwort blossom, and the first Korasha from a knothole. Thus the Lashunta call their legendary prehistoric ancestors ~Utheaza~ - the Children of the Milktrees.

Although treesingers abound as the priestly stewards of the milktrees' welfare, in legend only the greatest become ~Ialimyeae~ - birdsingers, who ascend among the highest boughs and take flight with their allies, even reaching Burning-Mother's heavenly palace.

What is this dreadful thing stalking the rainwood's darkfloor? Do fey spirits sometimes animate their vegetative allies to become entlike monsters? Then again, why would they, when Castrovel's plants already move, act, and hunt on their own?

Is there any hypothetical limit to how big a Ksarik can grow?

Thoughts on Chapter 60 - The Lashunta Matriarchy's Unconscious Bias and Protecting Entitlement

I have something really special planned for my players in our next #PathFinder2e session. In order to learn the forbidden magic of the Old Gods, they must undertake a spiritual journey based around some of the cards of the Tarot's Major Arcana. Each of the chosen cards will contain a lesson they must learn in order to progress towards their goal. The first lesson - the Fool - is to learn that they know nothing, and must ask for help. Will they ask the Magician or the High Priestess? #TTRPG

Friday Night Castrovel Inspiration
Artist: Howard Lyon

Since the Age of the Warrior-Queens, the Lashunta have told legends of the Moqeva, their ancient foe whom they fought to extinction. Yet was the war truly the Moqeva's fault?

The new Pathfinder Actual Play from Geeks&Sundry looks quite good, really enjoying it so far.
Quite the all-star ensemble, too:
Matt Mercer, Reggie Watt, Deborah Ann Woll, Felicia Day & Brandon Routh

Lashunta Technological Worldbuilding (from 3 years ago)

What function do you believe the engine below has? Based on the glowing energy at its midst, is it a psionic battery or focal concentrator? Based on its resemblance to early astronomical instruments, could it be used to indicate a measurement in three-dimensional space?

2 new #handdrawn #maps I drew today. I #timelapse videoed each of them for #TikTok & #YouTube, but once again my f$&@ing IPhone decided not to retain one of the videos after it was recorded

I still have some questons for Castrovel for which i don't yet have answers. For instance, what is Castrovel's connection to the Fey? Per Starfinder Canon, Sovyrian has a portal to the First World (through which Gnomes have reached that continent), but what about the rest of the world?

In a world that already has sentient trees and killer-plants, dinosaur-like ~Qoelu~,and intelligent apes, would dryads, nyads, nymphs, satyrs, and ents be more likely or less likely?...

Castrovel Woodsy Wednesday!

A pastoral scene among the megadendra trees.

As a teaser for this Saturday, here's a snippet from Chapter 60, in which Lady Vaeol reflects on her recent challenge's loss to Soaras, the Korasha Motorae Games champion, including how it reflects across Qabarat...

Drama in unserer Abomination Vaults Runde: Ein Mitspieler hat keine Zeit, möchte aber, dass wir den Charakter trotzdem mitnehmen.
Prompt wird dieser durch Würfelpech dahingerafft - wir legen unser Gold zusammen und beleben ihn wieder, aber der Spieler fühlt sich unfair behandelt und will nicht mehr mitspielen...
Samstag dann mal Proberunde mit einem neuen Aspiranten, hoffentlich dann auch etwas kommunikativer.

Lashunta Inspirational Pic of the Week (from two years ago)
I haven't posted Frazetta in a while. So here's some.

One of my attractions to his works is a feeling of feral wildness, as if the subjects aren't fully human, that they hold an almost beastlike aspect. This especially holds true for when I'm looking for inspirational subjects for Korasha.

Recently I perused the Interwebz looking for new, actual Korasha works. There's still not a lot out there, and most of it is Starfinder-focused. It lacks a brutishness I desire. My inner vision still hearkens back to the half-ape men of Opar in ERB's Tarzan novels, or some of the squat, almost neanderthal-like shapes artists like Frazetta and others use to populate their combat scenes.
