Scenarios involving deities of Madness?

I have a character that is pretty mentally disjointed, and I was wondering if there are 7-11 tier missions where you deal directly with named, powerful madness focused entities. Specifically I had heard there is a fight with Hastur in at least one scenario.

I would like for my 11.3 mission to be something confronting Hastur (or failing that, another Madness focused entity of significant power), as I'd like for my character to prove who's crazier.

No Mythos content in PFS besides an older 1-7 hinting at things and a certain 5th season 1-5 having an unspeakable ritual of sorts.

I think the closest to what you are seeking would be Into the Nightmare Rift, the penultimate adventure in the Shattered Star AP. It's about Leng.

You'd need to be 13th level though, so there's quite a bit to play yet.

As for tier 7-11 scenarios dealing with themes of madness, insanity and such in general, look no further than The Cultist's Kiss, The Flesh Colkector and The Chasm of Screams(very Lovecraftish and not in the banal tentacular way either).

Thanks. If anyone knows what my friends were talking about, the scenario they described with Hastur had the following details:

Hastur:
Is of course the final BBEG, his dying triggers an AoE burst with a Will save. Fail the save, and you don the robe and become Hastur. My crazy character would very much like to forgo that save.

Ah, that must be referring to a certain part in Carrion Crown AP, but the specifics are quite different(wrong entity for instance). I'm not sure if that part is PFS legal, but the sanctioned section is tier 9-11, so could be a good pick, be there a king in yellow or not.

I'm sure someone around here can fill us in on the sanctioned sections as well. So stay tuned, I guess.

Meh, oh well. I guess I'll keep my eyes peeled for the adventures you mentioned.

I don't think you will find Hastur in any PFS content soon. He's CR 29.
A false Hastur, maybe, but definitely not the real one.

Yeah, I think my friends were telling me about a mythic home campaign, but I just didn't realize it.

There are scenarios and modules that have madness/sanity effects. Not quite what you're looking for, but close, perhaps?

If you widen your net to include scenarios that deal with Dark Tapestry type stuff, you'll get more responses. My favorite is:

Spoiler:
Voice in the Void, which takes place in everyone's favorite museum.

Forbidden Furnace of Forgotten Koor is definitely one you should look at.

Maybe the Sarkorian Prophecy? Any time you go into the Worldwound, things get ... strange...
