How to Design a Deity for Pathfinder 2e! A 40th Birthday Disaster Tour Guide Special
19Hello Travelers & Tourists!
Today is a special day! I am officially OVER THE HILL!
That's right! Today is my 40th Birthday - and in honor of the rapid onset of old age, I decided to celebrate with a silly look at an important topic for storytellers: How to Design Deities in Pathfinder 2nd Edition!
The process of building the powerful divine entities comes with an array of thematic & mechanical considerations, and in this video, I will be designing the "Deity of the Mid-Life Crisis," using all of the considerations found in Pathfinder 2nd Edition - just to see how it's done!
You are welcome to use Cladis Pretium in your own games, but more to the point, I hope this serves as a launching point for your own world building & writing! I'd love to hear what kind of deities you have created or might create for your own Pathfinder 2e games!
