Per the Bestiary 2 Errata, the spectre Spectral Corruption ability has been changed. Without this nerf, the encounter on pages 27-28 is nearly impossible for four Level 6 PCs, especially the pretend that come with the adventures..

Page 248: The specter's Spectral Corruption ability, especially when combined with high attack and damage, make it an oversized threat for a level 7 monster. Replace it with
Spectral Corruption [two-actions] (curse, divine, enchantment, incapacitation, mental) The specter makes a vile touch Strike. If it damages a living creature, the specter gains 5 temporary Hit Points and the target creature must attempt a DC 24 Will save to avoid becoming corrupted.
Critical Success The creature is unaffected and is temporarily immune to spectral corruption for 1 minute.
Success The creature is stupefied 2 for 1 hour.
Failure The creature succumbs to the corruption and becomes a spectral thrall temporarily. The creature is controlled by the specter, obeying the specter's telepathic or spoken orders, though a spectral thrall does not obey obviously self-destructive orders. This lasts until the end of the thrall’s next turn, at which point it is no longer controlled but becomes stupefied 2 for 1 hour.
Critical Failure As failure, but the duration is unlimited. The thrall can attempt a new Will save at the end of each of its turns; on a success, it is no longer controlled by the specter but becomes stupefied 2 for 1 hour.
Change the vile touch Strike to “vile touch +16 (finesse), Damage 2d8+8 negative.” Note that this also cuts "plus spectral corruption" from the Strike, since it needs to use the Spectral Corruption activity to get the full effect.

The theme and Forum navigation both experienced catastrophic failure. The database and forums are intact, and if you know the URL of the post you want that's still accessible.

Currently no URL on full site functionality

While I'm not a lawyer and can't provide legal advice the CUP says the following (which specifically allows you to create your own versions of the maps, as long as they aren't going to be mistaken for official Paizo etc)

"You may not use artwork, including maps, that have not been published in the blog, although you may create your own interpretations of material presented in our artwork and maps, provided that your interpretations don't look substantially similar to our materials."

Is it OK to share maps created via DungeonAlchemist for FoundryVTT for bounties/quests/modules? To clarify, maps created from scratch (but of course with the same layout as the PDF's map).
