TAKE CHARGE!

W here the dungeon ends, another adventure begins! Pathfinder RPG Ultimate Campaign
takes you on a guided tour through the parts of the game that happen between
monster attacks and quests for ancient artifacts. As some of the most powerful
and prestigious heroes around, do your player characters want to build up a kingdom
of their own, or lead an army against a neighboring nation? Perhaps they want to start
a business, craft magic items, or embark on a quest that will come to define them.
Whether you’re looking for help generating a young character or seeking ways to
challenge adventurers who’ve grown bored of fighting monsters one-on-one, this
book has everything you need!

Pathfinder RPG Ultimate Campaign is a must-have companion volume to the
Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook. This imaginative tabletop game builds on more
than 10 years of system development and an open playtest featuring more
than 50,000 gamers to create a cutting-edge RPG experience that brings the
all-time best-selling set of fantasy rules into a new era.

Pathfinder RPG Ultimate Campaign includes:

► A detailed guide to generating character backstories, including a new
system for random character generation and traits and drawbacks to meld
your background with your statistics.

► Story feats that increase in power as you achieve key goals, making quests and
crusades more than just flavor!

► A complete downtime rules system to flesh out those parts of a PC’s life
that take place between adventures, such as running a business, gaining
power and influence in a community, or starting a magical academy.

► New rules for retraining and switching classes; honor, reputation,
and fame; young characters; investment; magic item creation; and
other key adventuring topics.

► Rules for building up a kingdom, including construction and
technological advancements, governing your people, and more.

► Mass combat rules to help you lead clashing armies and conduct epic battles in a fun
and efficient manner—without losing sight of the PCs themselves.

► AND MUCH, MUCH MORE!
