2025 Major Conventions
GM applications are now open for this summer’s major conventions! Join us at PaizoCon Online, Gen Con Indianapolis, or Origins! All GMs receive rewards based on how many slots they run, including Paizo vouchers, free badges for the show, and even Paizo products or housing at the highest slots. No Organized Play experience is necessary; if you’ve run our games, we can teach you everything you need to run scenarios, quests, and demos for the community. Come and join us this summer!

Character Options Updates
Last week saw the release of two major Pathfinder books, NPC Core and Lost Omens: Rival Academies. Both books are listed on the Character Options page, and boons for some options (including community-favorite 500 toads) are available in the Boon Store!
We’ve also released sanctioning documents for the Spore War Adventure Path, which are available on the AP product pages. You can now fight Treerazer and earn Pathfinder Society credit while doing so!
The next major Character Options updates will come in May with the release of Lost Omens: Shining Kingdoms, as well as the Starfinder Galaxy Guide. Two ancestries from the latter, the contemplative and dragonkin, will be available to those of you who have participated in the Starfinder Playtest as outlined on the Playtest Tracking Sheet, so we’ll be sure to provide guidance on those options upon release.
GM Recognition
GM Ranks
Whether stars, novas, or glyphs, achieving a 5 ranking in any program involves a substantial amount of time. To achieve the 5th milestone, a GM must run 150 games, of which at least 50 must be unique scenarios and 10 special scenarios, as well as run between one and three games for venture-captains (program dependent). A conservative estimate of the time needed to reach the 5th milestone is 650 hours!
This month we had three GMs reach their fifth rank!
5th Glyph (PFS2): Michael Johnson, David Li, Avram Suson
If you believe you’ve completed your 5th rank but haven’t been announced yet, please email me at organizedplay@paizo.com.
Conventions
Spring has sprung, and with it, convention season! Check out the Conventions calendar for upcoming events in your area. At press time we have more than a dozen events in the next couple of months, all looking for players and GMs!
This month, I will be attending Coscon in Butler, PA (just outside my hometown of Pittsburgh!) as well as GalaxyCon Richmond in Virginia. If you’re in the area for either of these, I’d love to say hi! Additionally, the day after PaizoCon I’ll be hopping on a plane to Birmingham for the UK Games Expo. Looking for a Paizo staff visit this fall? Drop me an email and let me know about your event; my contemplative gunslinger just might stop by!
Until next time adventurers—Explore! Report! Cooperate! And indulge in sin responsibly!
