Aside from getting from Point A to Point B and knowing where to buy more rations, it lets you know things like whether elves are commonplace or if you’re going to be regarded as weirdo in the town you’re about to enter. How many people live here? What are their religions and languages? What are some of the biggest cities? This book is a lot like that, but for the Inner Sea region. I don’t know how K-12 education is structured these days, but back in 10 th grade, I had a class called “World Cultures” that took a 2-3 week survey-level look at many of the main areas other than the United States. It’s a means of introducing the world of Golarion (or at least the portion of it where most of the fun stuff happens) to new players and re-introducing it to players who are making the jump from First Edition. So, what IS the Lost Omens World Guide? Well, at its simplest, it’s “the setting book” for Pathfinder Second Edition. Superman, you’ll be pleased to hear that the word “Martha” is nowhere within its pages.) Superman, it’s finally arrived on the scene to complete the launch-day trinity.
