Meta:Lamia
Retroactive changes
Lamias had properties introduced in another game that distinguished them from their depiction in mythology, and Pathfinder relied on rules from that game licensed via the Open Game License for its depiction of them.
The Pathfinder Second Edition Remaster Project changes the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game's license to the Open RPG Creative License, which prevents further use of that specific depiction of lamias in the Pathfinder campaign setting. Monster Core therefore introduced several retroactive changes to lamias.
References to the following details were removed or rewritten in the PathfinderWiki article to align with the language used in Monster Core:
- Lamias are now classified as humanoids.
- Most lamias have a serpentine lower body, and other forms are de-emphasized.
- Lamia matriarchs no longer explicitly assert that they are all serpentine in form.
- Despite retaining the title "matriarchs", lamia matriarchs can be of any gender.
