The latest in Super Genius Games' series "Anachronistic Adventurers", the Daredevil is a new base class for Pathfinder that allows you to play a world-crossing adventurer.

The PDF itself is 14 pages long; 15 if you count the OGL. It is laid out in the usual style used by SGG, and it presents both the class proper and several archetypes which its intended to be used with. These include: the Escapist (think Harry Houdini and professional escape artists); the Secret Agent (like James Bond and other cinematic spies); and my two personal favorites, the Masked Adventurer (like Batman, or the Spider, or a million other guys who fight crime and the forces of darkness) and the Occultist (which can vary from a two-fisted occult detective to a full-blown ritual magician).

The two best parts of the PDF are the new Dauntless Surge mechanic, which allows your daredevil to engage in reckless feats with a slightly better than usual chance of survival; and a section on ritual magic in Pathfinder. It does a good job of presenting a workable and not overly complex system which can be modified by gamers as needed. I would love a longer and more complex ritual magic system myself, but this works just fine with the pulpish tone of the class.

In the end, the Daredevil PDF does all that it intended to do. Yet another fine and worthwhile purchase from Super Genius Games.
