Pathfinder 2E: Lost Omens Hellfire Dispatches
A single spark has ignited the dry tinder of decades-long saber-rattling into the full-fledged inferno of the Hellfire Crisis, embroiling an entire region into the war between infernal Cheliax and its former holding of Andoran. Dispatches from each front reveal the past and present of the war, along with how the right group of heroes might shape the future of the conflict. From the front line to back-room intrigue and from grim reality to fantastical struggles, these dispatches cover the full range of the Hellfire Crisis.
In addition to news of the war and fronts where heroes might win important victories, this 128-page setting sourcebook provides new options for factions involved in the war. The Eagle Knights loyal to Andoran and the Hellknights divided by Cheliax’s wartime demands were there when the first blows were struck. Others were pulled in as the crisis spread into their homes, from shadowy Nidal to the halls of power in Absalom and from the already-bloody forests of Nirmathas to settlements beneath the Inner Sea.
Pathfinder Lost Omens Hellfire Dispatches is an invaluable resource for any player or Game Master operating within the Hellfire Crisis event, including:
- A comprehensive overview of the war’s timeline and effects throughout the Lost Omens campaign setting told through first-person accounts from every front of the conflict.
- A gazetteer of prominent NPCs and plot hooks in each of the conflict’s primary fronts, from the Arch of Aroden to Absalom, and from shadowy Nidal to the waters of the Inner Sea itself.
- Ten archetypes, including three freedom-loving Eagle Knight options, the law-bound Hellknight, Starstone aspirant, and more!
- New character options for members of all classes and themes.
- More than a dozen new troops to challenge parties on all sides of the conflict, a perfect complement to the skirmish rules presented in Pathfinder Battlecry!
Whether you’re fighting the battles of the Hellfire Crisis in the Hellbreakers or Hell’s Destiny Adventure Paths, assisting the Pathfinder Society as it navigates the continent-spanning war in the Pathfinder Society Organized Play campaign, or running your own exciting war-based adventure, Pathfinder Lost Omens Hellfire Dispatches has everything you need to bring the Pathfinder setting’s largest conflict to your table!

At Third Eye, we ship thousands of comics every week, and we know condition matters. Whether you're reading, collecting, or grading, we want you to feel confident when a Third Eye package arrives.
This policy outlines our standard for new release and shipped comics, and the industry-standard guidelines we follow.
OUR STANDARD
Books without a stated grade will be offered as Near Mint 9.4 or better. We do not guarantee 9.8 condition on any book unless specifically noted.
We use industry-standard grading guidelines from:
- CBCS Comic Grading Scale
- Overstreet Comic Grading Standards
- CGC grading standards
If you're new to comic grading, the resources above are a great place to start.
WHY WE DON'T GUARANTEE 9.8
Modern comic printing is an imperfect process. Books are printed in massive
runs, bound at high speed, and shipped in bulk to retailers. Even brand
new books off the truck will exhibit minor production characteristics,
and that's normal, and consistent with industry standards across every
retailer.
A 9.8 grade represents near-perfection, and the reality is that not every printed book qualifies for that grade no matter where you buy it from.
We can absolutely commit to NM 9.4 or better. We cannot commit to 9.8 on every book, because that's not how comics are made.
WHAT QUALIFIES AS NM 9.4
Per industry standards, a book may exhibit the following minor characteristics and still grade as Near Mint 9.4, as long as there's no accumulation of defects:
Bindery characteristics:
- Minor to moderate corner tears
- White edges along the spine (common on most modern printings)
- Covers slightly offset from interior pages (common on cardstock covers)
Printing characteristics:
- Slight color rub on back covers
- Small paper wrinkles present from the paper roll prior to printing
- Wavy paper texture from the printing process
Spine characteristics:
- 2-3 small color-breaking spine ticks
- Minor non-color-breaking spine dings
These are normal modern production characteristics, not damage from handling or shipping. They are present on books across the industry, regardless
of retailer.
OUR RETURN & EXCHANGE POLICY
We do not accept returns or exchanges on books that meet our NM 9.4 or better standard.
We will replace or refund:
- Books damaged during shipping (clear shipping damage, not pre-existing print characteristics)
- Books that fall below NM 9.4 standard (significant spine damage, major creasing, tears, etc.)
- Wrong cover or wrong issue shipped
For premium variants (1:25, 1:50, 1:100, 1:250, 1:500 incentive covers, signed editions, exclusive variants), we apply enhanced QC during pull and packing. If a premium variant arrives outside our standard, contact us within 7 days of delivery and we will work with you on a replacement.
