Meta:Arcanaton

Potentially non-canon details

Arcanatons appeared only on the Paizo blog and in the work Guardians of Dragonfall, much of which has since been deemed non-canon by official Paizo clarifications.

The bestiary entry for them in Guardians of Dragonfall also references terms and subjects, such as dweomer and the capacity of raw magic to take an elemental form, that are drawn from Dungeons & Dragons settings and were not included in the Pathfinder campaign setting after the release of the First Edition of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. -Oznogon (talk) 19:23, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

Dragonfall

Removed the following from the article:

Long the self-proclaimed masters of magical power, the many races of dragons thrived on Golarion while humanity was still little more than savage beasts. It was they who learned the secrets of summoning and binding these creatures of elemental magic, and they yet remain the dragons' servants, ever watchful for arcane adepts that would plunder the treasures of their masters. When it came time to construct an important symbol of their power, it was inevitable that they would choose to include arcanatons among the guardians of Dragonfall.

Despite appearing in a canon source, this refers to a depiction of draconic lore and a location in Dragonfall that were retroactively removed from the Pathfinder campaign setting. No replacement for Dragonfall was provided, and details about dragons in Guardians of Dragonfall are officially superseded by Pathfinder campaign setting works, particularly Dragons Revisited.
