other fun things: rituals that give you free feats if you beat their 'trial', one of which is a ritual to create an elixir of immortality that poisons you, if you live through the poison, you become immortal, but if you break anathema and are past your normal lifespan, you die. anathema is 2-3 things you and the DM come up with that you cant do, like touching someone related to you, touching jade, eating meat, etc. if you do die in combat or something in a year youll descend from heaven and possess someone

Whenever I see pathfinder stuff it makes me wish I still had my DND group together

Man, Pathfinder continues to just be 2000% cooler than D&D.

the pathfinder version of fantasy China includes a parody of Maoist China lol

complete with Mao and Jiang Qing:

Following Lung Wa's collapse in 7106 IC, the rich bureaucrats, with the aid of a corrupt clergy, struggled to control the restless populace. In this era of political turmoil, Grandfather Pei, a scholar from a peasant background, began spreading the Pei philosophy of communism. Pei preached for equal treatment of all humanoids and demanded that prosperity be shared equally among all citizens. Gathering an army of peasants, workers, and other downtrodden folk, Grandfather overthrew the corrupt government and its puppets in the clergy in the Bachuan Revolution in 7126 IC. Thus independent, Grandfather restored to Pen Wa its original name, Bachuan, as a newly reformed republic. Though Grandfather Pei intended to bring a new era of peace and prosperity to Bachuan, the Pei philosophy proved much harder to implement than planned. The strict philosophy opposed religion and the private ownership of property, and enforced state control over the production and distribution of wealth. Beneath the Sun Chamber, the infamous Ministry of Peace and Harmony operated re-education camps to force its ideology on dissenters, and in later years instituted ideological purges to root out any who were not sufficiently zealous. Pei's failures of leadership resulted in an authoritarian government, suppression of religion, ideological purges, and the establishment of re-education camps. When Grandfather Pei died in 7168 IC, his young widow Pu Yae Men—better known as Grandmother Pei, and herself indoctrinated in Bachuan's re-education camps—implemented an even harsher vision with a revolutionary zeal untethered to Bachuan's troubled reality.

it even has a Deng Analog lol:

The Shui Jing reforms

Shui Jing was an oracular Tian-Shu woman who claimed to be a mathematician, and she possessed considerable social charms that quickly gained her favor among the Pei family. She united the factions long enough to propose a series of policy reforms that would change the shape of Bachuan:

The end of enforcement and official proselytizing of the Pei philosophy,

The division of Bachuan into six municipalities, one for each of the Sun Council's factions,

Reformed property ownership laws that could encourage private ownership and foreign investment, with a decade of minimal taxation on profits.
