Interesting Threads from the Paizo Message Boards



For a while I've been collecting links to interesting threads on message boards. Here's a roundup of some from the Paizo boards. Note that whereas some of them lean more towards the Pathfinder system and Golarion world, many are generic/systemless enough to be useful to people using other game systems.

The links are sorted first by subject, then alphabetically.
