In Pathfinder (much like AD&D 2nd Ed) there is a deeper connection between hags and witches. I have looked at a few products here that explore that. This one looks promising as well.
As always I will be following my rules for these reviews.
Paragon Hags and Occult Covens
PDF. 28 pages. Color cover. Black & White interior art. 1 cover, table of contents, 1 OGL page, rest content.
We start off with some history and the in game assumption that all hags are the daughters of hags and mortal men. These offspring are known as changelings, and will eventually become hags once they reach 15 years of age.
We get a new race, Hag, for player characters, and a new class, the Paragon Hag.
Paragon Hags get a number of powers above and beyond that of just what the Hag race gets. Among these is the ability to cast Witch spells up to the 6th level.
Different Hag families are detailed. Many of these are familiar. They are the Annis, Blood, Bone, Green, Hearth, Moon, Night, Sea, Storm, and Winter.
We get new archetypes to go along with the new class. There is the Cauldron Hag, Coven Mother, Focused Hag, and Mother of Steel. So by choosing different archetypes and different hag families you can get a wide variety of hag types.
New races and new classes mean new feats, and we have them here. Pretty good mix really. Mostly "Coven" feats, which could be used by witches as well.
There are new Rituals and new Spells.
Finally, we get monster stats for the Bone Hag, Hearth Hag, and another take on the Moon Hag.
I have to admit I rather like it all and will add to my growing pile of Pathfinder material to use.
