Weekly Wonders - Cinematic Dinosaurs Volume I

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Dinosaurs As They Were Always Meant to Be!

 

            Dinosaurs occupy a special place in our imagination. On the one hand, they are awe-inspiring creatures of myth and fantasy, terrible draconic creatures which no human has ever lain eyes upon, stars of novels, television, and movies. On the other hand, they were real, mundane animals, not so different from the animals we know in modern day times. As a result, dinosaurs occupy a nebulous space between fantasy and reality, and require a delicate balance to handle well.

 

            The dinosaurs included in the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Bestiary do an excellent job of presenting one interpretation of dinosaurs: that of being large, but nonetheless mundane animals, differing from a bear or elephant only in Hit Dice and size category. Like other animals, they receive little in the way of special abilities or mechanics to make them come alive at the game table. With Weekly Wonders: Cinematic Dinosaurs Volume I, we present a different interpretation of dinosaurs, one which draws on the more fantastical elements of these creatures, as seen in movies, television, games, and more. Though they are decidedly non-magical in nature, these dinosaurs can hardly be said to be mundane, with numerous new and exciting special abilities designed to evoke the sorts of action attributed to dinosaurs in other media.

 

In this book, you will find:

 

  • The primordial triceratops (CR 11), whose massive bulk cripples those it tramples, and which can impale opponents on its three massive horns.
  • The primordial tyrannosaurus rex (CR 12), whose very presence inspires fear, and whose roar can reduce even the stoutest hearts to quivering jelly, whose teeth can snap bones like twigs, and who can burst through nearly any obstacle without even slowing down.
  • Supplemental rules applicable to all dinosaurs and other creatures of immense size, which focus on bashing objects, including rules to make attempts to break objects more exciting and cinematic, break DCs for a variety of objects a dinosaur might want to destroy (including trees, rocks, and entire buildings of various sizes and materials), and rules for bashing large objects to shake free creatures hiding atop them.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
