Interviews With TTRPG Creators
  • Show Notes

Watch as a full video interview here


Jason Bulmahn is a veteran tabletop game designer and creative manager with over two decades of industry experience, best known as the lead designer of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Formerly the managing editor of Dragon magazine and the Director of Game Design at Paizo, he played a pivotal role in creating Pathfinder and its second edition, earning more than 20 ENnie Awards over the course of his career. His latest game is 13 Omens.


We loved getting the chance to speak with Jason, hearing about how he first got into designing games, and how he found himself at Paizo and led the design of Pathfinder. Plus, he tells us how he first came up with the idea for the new Paizo one-shot horror game, 13 Omens, and talks us through his thought process on the game's unique systems.
