Review: I'm a pretty avid RPG player - As a preface, I'm a pretty avid RPG player. I DM Pathfinder, and play in several other weekly RPGs. I'm a big fan of 'lazy DM'ing' options - premade encounters, premade cities, things that can easily be dropped into a sandbox campaign as needed, so I can avoid spending a week creating a city, organization, etc. This is one of my favorite books for Pathfinder - and I own a lot of them. It's effectively a collection of 'generic badguy organizations', and their various members and stat-sheets. They provide pre-made encounters for each organization, each of different difficulties so you can drop them into a campaign as needed. Each organization also has some nice flavor/fluff ideas, story hook concepts, but is all overall 'generic' in the sense that you can slap whatever name/title you want on the group and members, and drop them right into your setting. Additionally many of the organizations have new feats, class archetypes, etc, for use within that organization - however the book specifically mentions potentially using these as a reward, should PC's end up being buddy-buddy with the organization, which I find pretty cool. There's also a few new magic items which is always welcome. Totally worth the purchase if you DM Review: Good list of boss style enemies. - Mostly higher CR, but still really good pre-built villains and paired with the NPC codex you will have plenty of options for a small group of enemies to throw at your players or a beefy boss encounter to challenge them. ## Features - Hardcover - Manufacturer: Paizo ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,094,262 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #386 in Pathfinder Game | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 140 Reviews | ## Images ![Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: Villain Codex - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81nG9ZuxGzL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'm a pretty avid RPG player *by K***Z on March 30, 2017* As a preface, I'm a pretty avid RPG player.
