Rainbow Magic Beginner Reader is a series of books specifically designed for young children who are just starting to learn how to read. These books are written by Daisy Meadows and aim to provide an engaging and accessible reading experience for beginner readers. The main idea behind the Rainbow Magic Beginner Reader series is to introduce young children to the joy of reading through colorful and imaginative stories. Each book focuses on a different magical fairy character and their adventures, making the stories exciting and enchanting for young readers. The books in the Rainbow Magic Beginner Reader series feature short chapters with large print and simple language, allowing children to easily follow along and comprehend the text. Additionally, the books include colorful illustrations, which not only enhance the reading experience but also help children understand the story better.
Most tabletop RPGs involve doing some amount of math, though this varies. PF2 is reasonably light on math: if you can handle adding and subtracting two-digit numbers, and very occasionally multiplying or dividing two-digt numbers, you’ll be fine. If you’re worried, bring a calculator (a calculator app on a phone works great, too). The most math that you’ll need to do unassisted is adding up the totals of damage dice from spells, and even then that won’t be difficult until you’ve been playing for a while and gained a bunch of levels (and real-world practice).

Additionally, the books include colorful illustrations, which not only enhance the reading experience but also help children understand the story better. One of the key aspects of the Rainbow Magic Beginner Reader series is its use of phonics, a method of teaching reading that focuses on the relationship between sounds and their corresponding letters. The books in this series incorporate phonics elements, such as repetitive sounds and rhymes, to help children practice their phonetic skills while reading.
[Pathfinder 2nd edition] Advice for a Divine Sorcerer? (1 Viewer)
While this is true, a Divine Sorcerer with Heal as a Signature Spell will probably do fine as a party's in-combat healer (admittedly tighter in the early levels), with investment in Medicine and its associated Feats for the out-of-combat healing.
Oh, they'll do okay. But they will never be as good. Because the cleric can get all the same feats, and gets bonus heal spells, and can grab the healing hands feat very easily.

If a divine sorc isn’t a heal bot, what’s their real specialty?Victim

Validated User 20 Year Hero!How much heal spell do you really need anyway? It kind of seemed like Medicine should be doing most of the grunt work for HP recovery with the spell being more of a situational tool.

If I'm building a heal bot, divine sorc is sub-optimal. Nothing in the CRB competes with cleric. (Which is not to say that a divine sorc should never take heal as a spell - it's handy to have a backup in-combat healer!)
But what fun things can we do with the concept, while also getting that extra healing option? There lies opportunity!
I'll probably post at least one idea later today.

The campaign I'm in is going with a sort of improvised 2.5 Pathfinder, so Divine Lance is going to work. however it works with no alignments.

So here's one idea, built to 5th level (but with no gear selected): a Diabolic-bloodline noble who discovered the dark secret in her family tree and has dedicated herself to opposing the machinations of devils as a personal quest.

It gains a +1 status bonus to attack rolls and skill checks related to performing the task. If it refuses to perform the task you proclaimed, it instead takes a -1 status penalty to all its attack rolls and skill checks.
Additional Feats Clever Improviser, Continual Recovery, Courtly Graces, Dangerous Sorcery, Divine Evolution, Fleet, Skilled Heritage, Untrained Improvisation
Additional Specials Bloodline (Diabolic), Signature Spells, Skilled Heritage (Diplomacy)
I like the Diabolic bloodline because it gives a solid attack cantrip (though divine lance may also be better, soon, and this will matter less) and you get some enchantment abilities that tie in nicely with a character that should already be good at Charisma-based things.
She's a good back-up for healing in combat, and a near fully-fledged non-combat healer, but most of her spell selection is oriented to fire/light effects. And those that aren't directly fire/light-based I would describe in ways that were. Her blindness manifests a blazing light in the target's eyes, her water walk is a cushion of tiny flames that keep her above the water, she can see invisibility by bending heat and light, etc.
Pathfinder (both editions) is created and published by Paizo, and was originally a modification to Dungeons and Dragons 3rd edition. Pathfinder 2nd edition is a much different game, but does draw many of its mechanical and thematic roots from Dungeons and Dragons.
Overall, the Rainbow Magic Beginner Reader series is a valuable tool for young children who are just starting to learn how to read. These books provide an engaging and accessible reading experience, introducing children to the joy of reading through colorful and imaginative stories..
Reviews for "Exploring Themes of Friendship and Adventure in Rainbow Magic Beginner Reader Books"
1. Sarah - 1 star
I was really disappointed with the Rainbow Magic Beginner Reader series. The stories were incredibly boring and lacked any kind of depth or excitement. The characters were one-dimensional and it felt like the same plot was recycled in each book. I expected better from a series with such a popular reputation. Unfortunately, I would not recommend these books to anyone looking for an engaging reading experience.
2. Mark - 2 stars
I found the Rainbow Magic Beginner Reader series to be quite unimpressive. The writing style was simplistic and lacked any creativity. The stories were predictable, and the characters were forgettable. It felt like the authors were just trying to churn out as many books as possible to capitalize on the success of the original Rainbow Magic series. Overall, I was not impressed and would not recommend these books to others.
3. Lisa - 2 stars
I was really hoping to enjoy the Rainbow Magic Beginner Reader series, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The stories were poorly written and lacked any real substance. The character development was almost nonexistent, and there was no depth to the plot. It felt like the books were rushed, with no real thought put into them. I would not recommend these books to anyone, especially those looking for a more engaging reading experience.
4. Michael - 1 star
I have to say, I was extremely disappointed with the Rainbow Magic Beginner Reader series. The stories were incredibly repetitive and lacked any originality. The writing style was bland and felt like it was written for a much younger audience. The characters were shallow, and the dialogue was cringeworthy. Overall, I found these books to be a waste of time and would not recommend them to anyone.
