"Allegro" is a 7th-rank #PF2e Bard cantrip that allows you to quicken an ally for 1 round. It's a one-action spell. Can be extended with Lingering Composition.

Did I mention it's a cantrip?

Busy #Minus20 weekend here at the desk of your friendly game master.

Finished up editing ep 27 (a banger!). Made the maps for the next Odd Job adventure. Draft outline for next recording session.

And tomorrow is release day!

Busy busy busy busy -- but the work is a joy, so....

Sunday funday means one more day to the next episode release!! Last weekend ended so suspensefully!!

The Goblin Ambush The very same goblin ambush can be infuriating, boring, or a highlight. This post uses the goblin ambush to show how you can avoid bad choices and create good choices that maximise player agency.

Fantastic post from Patchwork Paladin on offering choices in every scene while avoiding false choices, handcuffing, and calculations posing a choices. patchworkpaladin.com/2025/10/04/t...

"Song of Marching" is another under-utilized #PF2e Bard cantrip. It increases your party's movement during exploration and gives them all a +1 to initiative rolls. (This stacks with the Scout action!)

I've yet to track movement speed in Exploration. Time to design an encounter around it!

Sure, everyone knows the #PF2e Bard cantrips "Dirge of Doom" and "Rallying Anthem." But what about "Triple Time"? A nice little cantrip to give a boost to your party's speed...

I love these music-themed bard buff/debuff spells. But what if my Bard is a poet?

A quick clip from this week's #Minus20 episode, "Too Much Trust."

Marth groks the vibe of the arsonist at the site of his latest attack....

Another theme of #PF2e spell is shadow magic.

Take "Malicious Shadow." With it, you take control of the target's shadow, transforming it into a "deadly form" and turning it against its host.

...getting ideas for the next spellbook....

Serenity and the Myth of "Getting Out the Signal" - Reactor We want to believe that knowledge will change the world for the better, but it's not always that simple.

20 years after Serenity, @thenerdypriest.bsky.social wrestles with a core premise of science fiction stories. When the world is at stake, is "getting out the truth" really enough?

Can confirm.

#PF2e definitely has themes for their spells. One of the more disturbing themes is cruetly.

Take "Suffocate." It not only does 4d8 bludgeoning damage, but if the target fails a save, it has to hold its breath...or suffocate. Which is a horrible way to go in Pathfinder.

Did I mention episode 22 of the #Minus20 podcast is out? Some crazy stuff happens... Here's a taste!

My crop art entry at the 2025 #minnesotastatefair didn’t win any ribbons, but I love him so much! And yes, #pigglywiggly was the first self service grocery store in the US.

As a GM, I love -- love! -- how #Pathfinder2e handles exploration. It's my favorite game mode....

Whoa. Check out the #PF2e spell, "Vampiric Exsanguination." It's like "Vampiric Touch," only you steal the lifeforce from everyone in a 30-foot cone!

Your gorier GMs can still flavor it as sucking 12d6 of blood from everyone affected...which is a wicked, wicked sight....

I'm not saying the #PF2e spell, "Appearance of Wealth," is a niche spell -- no, I am.

I'd probably use it on my house when guests came over. Some ruffian might use it when selling their car or something, but, of course, that would be fraud.

Anyway, all it does is Fascinate.

Section of the Hell panel from "The Garden of Earthly Delights" triptych, by Hieronymus Bosch, painted between 1490 and 1510. Museo del Prado. Madrid.

Zoomed detail of the "butt music" from that panel, and a useful hand pointing at it.

I talked a little about this many months ago, but let's delve a little deeper into this curiosity.
Bosch's "The Garden of Earthly Delights" is one of the most famous works of late medieval art. And in the Hell section, there's a piece of music written on a sinner's butt cheeks.
Is it tho? 🔽🧵

"Forbidden Thought" is a very cool #PF2e cantrip from the Psychic class -- you "put a mental lock" on a single action of a foe, and it has to pass a Will save or take damage if it tries to perform that action...and it heightens every rank, adding a d6 of damage!

Seems like a fun class....

Here's another cool #PF2e spell: "Incendiary Fog."

You conjure "a cloud of flammable black dust." Acts as an obscuring mist...until someone lights it up with fire. Then everyone inside this 20-foot (!) takes massive fire damage!

I'm not saying you should use it with Fireball, but....

These Humble Bundles are how I got into PF2e: definitely worth checking out!

Heck, yeah!

"Drop Dead" did not go where I thought it would.

Instead, this #PF2e spell creates an illusory corpse of a target that's just been struck in combat, while the real person is Invisible. And it's a reaction spell!

Basically, a clever one-time get-out-of-combat spell.

What if every day is the Rapture, but everone's always left behind?
