Please do not check in here until invited to do so. If you would like to apply for a seat, please post in the recruitment thread.
Everyone has checked in, and we are about to begin! Just a reminder - this is a CORE game.
My rules are simple: try to post at least once per day, and if you will be away for longer, just drop me a post here to let us know how you want to be botted. I am to move at a decent pace and try to finish up by Oct 10 - so characters can be available to participate in the second "session" of GameDay 5. For those interested, I am planning to run a core table for Among the Living once we complete this one. As we get closer to October, I will ask who wants in - you all will get first dibs on spots, and then I will go recruiting if there are any openings.
Other than that, be good to each other, and we should be all good!
Prestige is no longer based on faction missions, but the early scenarios were designed around having multiple faction missions going on behind the scenes. If anyone would like the play a faction mission for your own personal entertainment (success or failure will not affect your chronicle sheet here), let me know and I will give you that briefing as well.
I hope everyone has a good time!

Old factions don't always translate/convert well to new ones, so here are my best matches for you!
Agent of the Empire,
The spice merchants, scimitar-wielding silken slaves, and the flea-bitten camels of Qadira ever plague our southeastern border. News that your next mission probes Qadira has reached our ears. I have need of your services while you navigate the treacherous sands.
Our empire is much gloried in many arenas, but in the treacherous waters of trade and commerce, we have been continually outdone by our rivals to the southeast. Qadira rules much of the Silken Way, the valued trade corridor to the Eastern empires. It is imperative we gain our own interests along this route and repel theirs. We need to obtain an operative along the route, a successful merchant with the necessary contacts to expand our interests there. Find such a person, and give him a message along with this small sack of gold. Let him know there is a good deal more where that came from if he will but arrange for our wares to make it East without the satrap’s greedy fingers reaching into our pockets. Do this without anyone’s knowledge.
Also, we need to keep our empire out of entangling conflicts with Qadira right now. If you discover anyone from our august empire making trouble along the trade routes, be sure to cover up their involvement if you can.
As always, you have the thanks of a grateful empire.
Joyfully yours, Baron Jacquo Dalsine
Honored Friend of the Ruby Prince,
Greetings to you and honor to your ancestors. The winds tell me many things, and today they speak of your upcoming assignment in Qadira. You know as well as I the long and bloody history between our people and theirs; however, it is no mission of petty vengeance I charge you with.
Irori sees into the past. He is the Father of History. His worship has all but vanished among the Qadirans, though he once rivaled Sarenrae for their favor. Deep in the deserts along the Silken Way trade route lies an old long forgotten temple to his wisdom. I would see it given proper respects. Travelers’ rumors speak of monsters lairing within, befouling the place with their offal. I would see this temple cleaned and restored as best as possible and any unwelcome denizens removed.
Do this and you honor the Father of the Past himself—a deed unlikely to be forgotten.
Respectfully,
Amenopheus, The Sapphire Sage
Fellow Free Citizen,
Many warm greetings, friend. I hope this communiqué finds you well. It has come to my attention that the Pathfinder Society’s next mission takes you to the oasis town of Lopul. I have included a proclamation along with this missive, a scroll meant to urge the locals to throw off the oppressive auspice of the local sheikh and the satrap. Post this proclamation in a visible and public location in Lopul for all to see. Let the fires of unrest begin to smolder in that nation of slavers and tyrants.
As always our mission must be to spread freedom to our fellow men and women of the world. Keep this close to your heart and keep your sword at the ready. The deserts of Qadira are filled with venomous things and evil monsters.
Respectfully,
Captain Colson Maldris
Hey folks - I was planning on running a core table for #7-Among the Living for the second "session" of GD5 (which starts in the next day or so). We really aren't as far through this as I planned, though, so we may not finish both in time.
So I just want to do a head count to see who is interested in that scenario before I decide how (or if) to start recruiting.
Anyone want a spot?
Ok, with at least 3 in, I will wait to start it until after this one ends.
Let me know if anything looks off. Doodle and Grog have out of tier sheets.
The only thing that's off on mine is the name. It's Narnel not Namel.
Thank you so much for GMing. This was fun.
Oops! Sorry about that. Corrected chronicle is uploaded.
Sure, Frozen Fingers works for me. For those that want in, sign in here:
Once I see who is in, I can see if I need to recruit any additional characters.
@Narnel - yes, you can get credit for each scenario twice (once CORE, once standard)
Sorry Riceak - we'll catch you on the next one. Did you have something you wanted to run through?
Doodle - sure, sub is fine. In fact, I am in the game Doodle is playing right now, so I knew you were booked....
Honestly, I wasn't so sure what I was doing, and Grog jumped in with Frozen fingers, so I went with it.
We will certainly pull you in for the next, but you are also welcome to tag along for no credit if you like (I have done that a few times for similar situation).
