Spooky Season approaches (though, let’s be honest, does it ever really end for some of us?) and that provides the perfect opportunity for a thematically appropriate Humble Bundle! Starting today, and running through October 10, you can pick up the Pathfinder Second Edition Bundle of the Dead, featuring $811 of content, including Book of the Dead, the complete six-part Blood Lords Adventure Path (as well as the associated Foundry VTT modules), and many more titles to help you bring chilling adventures of terror and dread to your face-to-face or digital tables!
But it’s not just the content of this bundle that’s timely. Proceeds from the Pathfinder Second Edition Bundle of the Dead will support Take This, whose mission is to decrease the stigma of, and increase the support for, mental health in the game enthusiast community and inside the game industry. While they’d be a worthy cause to support at any time, Take This announced at the end of August that they were in dire need of help to keep from shutting down entirely. There’s literally no better time for you to support their cause, and this bundle provides just such an opportunity.
At the base level of a $5 donation, you’ll receive everything you need to take your first haunting steps into Pathfinder Second Edition, with PDFs of the Pathfinder Beginner Box, Core Rulebook, Bestiary, GM Screen, Character Sheet Pack, and the Blood Lords Adventure Path Player’s Guide—a value of over $84!
For $15 or more, you’ll get everything in the $5 tier, plus PDFs of the first three volumes of the Blood Lords Adventure Path, Advanced Player’s Guide, Gamemastery Guide, Lost Omens World Guide, Lost Omens Character Guide,Lost Omens Impossible Lands, four Pathfinder Society Scenarios (1–03: Escaping the Grave, 1–25: Grim Symphony, 2–17: Lost Maid of Anactoria, and 4–02: Return to the Grave), as well as eight Pathfinder Flip-Mats (Village Square, Haunted House, Bigger Temple, Arcane Library, Woodlands, Swamp, Forest Multi-Pack, and Ghost Town)—an additional $305 value.
For $35 or more, you get everything above plus another $375 in value, including PDFs of Book of the Dead, the last three volumes of the Blood Lords Adventure Path, Secrets of Magic, Lost Omens Ancestry Guide, Lost Omens Legends, four Pathfinder Society Scenarios (4–05: The Arclord Who Never Was, 4–10: Arclord’s Abode, 4–06: Signal from the Electric Laboratory, and 4–11: Prisoners of the Electric Laboratory), Pathfinder Bounty 21: Against the Unliving, two Starfinder Flip-Mats (Solar Temple and Spaceport), five Pathfinder Flip-Mats (The Rusty Dragon Inn, Museum, Dungeons Multi-Pack, Bigger Island, and Arcane Dungeons), and two Pathfinder Flip-Tiles collections (Dungeon Starter Set andDungeon Vaults Expansion). Additionally, customers at this tier will receive codes to add the entire Blood Lords Adventure Path to your FoundryVTT repertoire. This tier represents a whopping $375 value!
Finally, for those players and GMs who love the feel of a physical book and whose bookshelves yearn for one more Pathfinder title, we’re offering the hardcover edition of Pathfinder Book of the Dead to everyone who pays $50 or more. This book retails for $49.99 by itself, so a purchase through this bundle effectively gets you all the digital content for one cent! When you redeem your Humble Bundle codes on paizo.com, the book will be added to your cart at no cost; you simply pay shipping and handling at checkout.

Take This has provided support, community, information, and tools to support mental wellness for people who make and play games since 2012. Through programs that serve the game community and the game industry, the organization strives to build an environment that fosters and celebrates mental wellbeing through games, communities, and workplaces built for thriving.
Take This’ three tentpole programs provide concrete support to people who make and play games while uplifting everyone who is part of this community.
The Take This Accelerate Program is an initiative fueling the next generation of games and mental health experts. While supporting the professional development of creators, game developers, and researchers, Accelerate is building a critical mass of ethically trained, knowledgeable early-career professionals to advance the work of building a game industry focused on digital thriving, prosocial interaction, and safety by design.
The Take This AFK Room is a staffed, relaxed space at conventions and events designed for anyone who feels overwhelmed and needs a place to regain their calm. It is run by local volunteers and clinicians, trained by Take This, to moderate and maintain the atmosphere. The program offers education, resources, and a non-therapeutic listening ear to convention attendees, allowing them to find respite and fully enjoy their convention experience.
The Take This Mental Health in Games Awards honors digital and tabletop games which represent excellence in compassionate, non-stigmatizing portrayals of mental health, normalize mental health challenges, and uplift the mental wellbeing of the game community. These awards recognize excellence in compassionate, non-stigmatizing portrayals of mental health and mental health challenges in both video and tabletop games – games that go above and beyond in portraying the cornerstones of the Take This’ mission: mental health issues, healing, and hope.
Why this bundle, right now?
Right now, Take This is facing a serious financial reality: You may have noticed the organization’s plea for financial support earlier this year. As hard as they’ve worked to make up that gap, the organization still needs significant help. Without everyone’s support, Take This and all of its impactful programs will cease to exist – unless they raise $80,000 by the end of September. Luckily, to help them make up the gap, Take This has received a commitment from an anonymous donor to match up to $50,000 of all donations made during this month—including from this bundle! So, you can double the impact of your gift just by purchasing the bundle. And if you can’t purchase the bundle, please consider supporting the awesome work of Take This directly.
