Doubtful: Sheet with actual name has been added to the folder. The boon was only available through the Serpent's Rise tie-in that didn't end up applicable here.
Mild Serpent's Rise Spoilers:
Zurnzal is one of the characters you can play.
Dunkel: Yes on nonviolent resolutions. They were both Razmiri plants. I'd double check on the legality of vanities in Core.
Oops, want to purchase a +2 wis headband which will change some of the previously given numbers...
Have to wait to check my chronicles to see if I have enough or not first...
I did indeed have enough coins... so did indeed purchase said headband!
Ignore the previously given numbers, the new values are...
-------------------------------------
Level: 5
Initiative: +4
Saves: Fort +8, Reflex +7, Will +9
+2 racial bonus vs spells, spell-like abilities, and poisons
+2 on saves vs enchantments spells and effects
Evasion
DR 10 vs negative energy
Immune to disease
Perception: +12 (+14 with Stonecunning)
Free passive check with Stonecunning if within 10 feet.
It was an all pregen run through of it, back when core was first introduced, for fun and mayhem.
Five players, all of whom expected and were looking forward to dying horribly ... then were quite shocked to get to the end successfully with 15 minutes to spare.
I'd played it briefly, in regular campaign when it first came out... and much like Dunkel's go, we never really got out of sight of the entrance before we had to flee with one dead.
So I had some knowledge of the first couple of rooms. None of the others had played it before.
I played it when it debuted at Gen Con. A player I knew IRL died in the first room and rage quit. We went our separate ways after that, but the rest of the table had a great game (We all knew each other.)
My Bonekeep 1 experience (run by a now-Paizo employee) was with my first character, who was definitely unprepared. We definitely wouldn't have made it, except a character got bumped down to our table from the high tier due to lack of space, who did his best to keep everyone alive, and managed to succeed, if only barely.
For those interested in the Iron Gods game, I'm opening up a thread here to start discussion character options,

Thank you! Sorry for the trouble.
I have actually not played any of the Bonekeeps yet. I've been waiting for a chance to play them with people I know. I really don't get much enjoyment out of pure combat adventures unless I am playing with friends.
Male Human Bloodrager 4 (HP 30/40) (AC 18/12/17) (CMD 20) (Fort +7, Ref +3, Will +2) (Init +1) (Perception +7)
Heh. I would *totally* be up for a CORE run of Bonekeep at some point down the track, but I would definitely need to get one of my actual PCs leveled up for that!
I hope nobody minds terribly, but I'm going to move the start date for this to the coming weekend.
I was expecting to GM this in standard mode before I got the opportunity to play it. A pretty awesome opportunity to play came up this Saturday, though, so I'm going to avoid spoilers until then.
Ok. For future reference for people, Mondays and Wednesdays will tend to be my least accessible days, mostly for work reasons, while Sundays are usually busy for pathfinder reasons. I can still usually post on those days, but responses will be slower.

Hey, I'm leaving for a convention tomorrow morning, and I wont get back until late Sunday. I might be able to post a few quick posts, but just assume I'm incommunicado until Monday.
Male Human Rogue 8 (CORE) Magsman HP:75/75), Init: +5, Perception: +17 (+21 v. traps) Fort: +5, Ref: +11 (+13 v traps), Will: +4 | AC: 23, Touch: 17, FF: Uncanny Dodge, CMD: 24
Hail! I'll be mostly incommunicado from Thursday night until Sunday night. I'll be at Total Con running an unreasonable amount of games (I set a goal for myself of earning my 5th star there, and it means running 4 specials in one weekend, two of them multitable.) Bot me as needed.
I'll have a substantial update up tonight, but I'm in the same boat as Thorn, so after that it'll probably just be a couple brief posts to move things along.
Ilmakis, if you could bot me in the game you're running that'd be great.

Hey guys, I'm going to be gone from Friday afternoon to late Sunday. I'll be on a snowshoeing hiking trip in Northern Vermont, where my connectivity is spotty at best. I'm guessing I won't be posting until I get back.
Hey everyone. I've got some tier 5-9 core games in April I'm hoping to use Thorn for (if he survives). Do we think we can pull this off by the first Thursday in April?
I think it's doable, especially as this combat is going to be much shorter than it could have been. The optional encounter probably wasn't going to happen in any case, but I think it's safe to rule it out.
I haven't been as active as I should be lately. Hopefully my busy period is winding down.

In the interests of expediency, you could start to figure out your next course of action. There are quite a lot of paths available to you. I color coded each. If you want to figure out where you'd like to proceed from here, I can get started on what you find at the destination.

Hey guys, I'm back and ready to go. That being said, This week is going to be insanely busy for me a few days. I know this scenario may very well be over, but I figure I'll post now.
Wednesday: Driving down to NYC to see Iron Maiden. I won't be checking the boards at ALL Wednesday until Thursday afternoon.
Weekend: Normally I'm pretty good about posting on the weekends, but I'm the chief referee for a tournament this weekend, and my tournament weekend begins right after school Friday, so I'll be off the boards Friday afternoon until Monday morning.
