GOLARION'S PREMIER TRAVEL MAGAZINE
The Black Butterfly's starknife Welcome to the second issue of the Queerfinder Society's travel magazine, a guide to Golarion from queer creators and allies focused on queer characters and stories!

Our goal is to create diverse and inclusive content to support the games at your table, whether it's a one shot or an ongoing campaign. As we prepare to put a bow on another winter, let's look back at the winter traditions we're leaving behind. Finishing our two-part coverage of Absalom, here's what you can find in this issue:

Festivals, bars, beauty consumables, fiction, recipes, and more!

Celebrate the winter solstice with traditional festivals of the gods! Explore new locations, meet new NPCs, learn new activities, and purchase new consumables! This issue currently contains:
  • 2 New Queer Bars owned by sisters who have drifted apart. One is a devout cleric of Andoletta, an empyreal lord of law and tradition, the other is a pirate and master of the Parrrty Barrrge! Can you help them reconcile their differences?
  • 3 Absalom Winter Tradition articles! Dive into the tradition of the Zonzon doll that takes place during Crystalhue, a festival honoring Shelyn, god of love and beauty. Defend the Eventide Sevenfold, a ritual that only occurs once every hundred years in which a champion can visit Desna's domain. Prepare yourself for the new year at a traveling marketplace run by Desna's faithful where each stall represents a constellation and a tarot reading determines which one you visit.
  • 2 Fiction Tales continuing stories from Issue 1!
  • 17 New Items, 4 New Stat Blocks, and new activities including Andolettan Meditation and Theatrical Combat!
  • 2 Real Recipes you can make for your table when they visit the corresponding bar

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.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
