A lot of RPGs use a specific term for their game to refer to the gamemaster of that game. D&D obviously has the Dungeon Master; the Storytelling system (used by Vampire: The Masquerade) has the Storyteller; Call of Cthulhu has the Keeper.

If Pathfinder was going to have its own unique term rather than using the generic Gamemaster, what should it be?

    I’m not actually familiar with Golarion lore. Is that the name of the head honcho of the Pathfinder organisation?

      The head of the Pathfinder Society is a group of 10 individuals called the Decimverate. Below them are the heads of local lodges called Venture-Captains who call Pathfinders to go adventuring.

        Oh neat, that actually makes Venture-Captain work way better than I thought. I guess that makes Paizo adventure writers decemviri.
