Flaxseed Lodge (PFS1)

Game Master Redelia

A new notice appears at the Flaxseed Lodge:

Attention Pathfinders! New recruits are needed for an urgent mission in Diobel. Do you have what it takes? Will you help the Society strike a blow against the Aspis Consortium? Sign up today!

I am running #7-10: The Consortium Compact for six PCs. I am the scenario's author. If you are interested, please sign up here and I will have a lottery to choose players on June 8th. In order to be eligible, you must have a full profile, with stats, for your PC. Your PC can be brand new, or an experienced 1st- or 2nd-level character. This is an evergreen scenario, so you can receive credit even if you have played before.

A woman at the bar turns to hear the announcement, hmmmm, not the contact I was waiting for, but, one of my crew just might fit the bill for this one she says to herself.

Noro quickly jots a note and has a messenger deliver it to her crew.

signed up one of my crew (Ako-Chan the Kitsune sorcerer) for this

A well-dressed young woman bursts through the door in a hurry.

Did I miss it?

I am running #7-10: The Consortium Compact for six PCs.

Oh, good, I didn't. I'm just off my first assignment and it was scrumptious. I hope I'm picked for this one!

Her enthusiasm is a little cloying, but infectious nonetheless.

She takes a seat at the bar and turns to the Pathfinder next to her.

What are you having? I'll have one of those.

Noro looks to the rather enthusiastic Half-Elf, Rum. she says motioning to the barkeep for another bottle and placing two more coins (pirate gold of the shackles) on the bar.

drink up, what's yer name?

A mission? Well, I still need to test these things out.

A young halfling looks up from his mug. "Somefin' to do wif the Consortium, aye? You can count on ol' Gage to come along if ya need 'im."

Signed up on the Roster!

Kara jumps back, a little startled by the fearsome looking woman next to her.

Rum? Well, yes, rum! For me and my friend. I am Kara, and I bet you have some stories to tell.

If you're needing bodies to go against the Consortium, I'm up for it. I am Mykel, pleased to make all your acquaintances. Barkeep, a tankard and a plate of food, whatever you have is good.

Kara jumps back, a little startled by the fearsome looking woman next to her.

Rum? Well, yes, rum! For me and my friend. I am Kara, and I bet you have some stories to tell.

Noro, Captain of the Malevolent Grace She takes a swig of rum, this human woman could probably out drink a dwarf by the looks of her.

I sent word back to my ship about this mission, If ya get selected along with my the one from my crew, tell her I said to keep an eye out for ya. her name be Ako she's one of dem fox girls can't miss her she got two tails.

I am GM Snider and I haven't seen my GM post for year of shadow lodge. Is there a big page or link I should be looking for somewhere else

Captain Noro, pleased to make your acquaintance.

And my day keeps getting more and more interesting.

Kara sips at her rum daintily, clearly not used to drinking the hard stuff with no fruity mixers.

have you tried here?

Venture-Captain Gallard Stormeye, a tall powerfully built Ulfen man with a wild look in his eye and clad in worn red dragon-plate armor, enters the lodge bearing a clipboard in his weathered hands.

"It's going to be a damn long week alright", he grumbles as he looks over the document. "I'm lookin' for available pathfinder agents. Lots of 'em!"

So begins my push to five stars! If you're looking for a game (and can follow my simple rules) sign up here.

"Oi!" says a colourful gnome.

"Captain Feral, Sir! That is, do you take old school, Core pathfinders, or only the more normal sorts, who have lots of modern tricks?" asks the small lady, as politely as she can.

The burly Venture-Captain shrugs and brandishes the clipboard. "With the pile of work the Ten dumped on me, I'll take whatever I can get."

I don't have a problem with CORE tables. Just make sure you note that in your wishlist request.

Raven will see her friend signing a name onto the paper. After a bit of digging she will pull out a quill of her own and quickly scratch her own name onto it.

"Well that looks exciting! I'll have to keep my fingers crossed in getting in on that mission. Good luck to your friend as well Noro. It would be nice if the both of us could end up on a team."

this is very exciting. There are a chain of scenarios related to Serpents Rise. I think I would like to request them once Peribras here is finished with his current mission. Although I suppose we don't have to wait on that for Serpents Rise...

We're off to a good start.

Venture-Captain Stormeye jots down some notes and calls out again. "It looks like I need some agents with... formal wear? Damn the Ten and their f!!!ing powdered wigs. Am I organizing a ball now?"

Amazing Red, edwardsobel, and Khelreddin can check in for Hellknight's Feast here. Anyone else that's interested has until tomorrow to speak up.

"I'd be interessed, where do I sign up? I found your rule list but not the actual form..." says a colorfully dressed woman

Vanya is not core but I've a CORE lvl 2 wizard if you want to go core

EDIT: I see I don't qualify for the scenario's requirements (I've only 1 lvl 5 char and he's currently in game) so the problem solved itself, but I'd like to know where to sign up for possible future games, if possible

there is a second and third tab to the document

Thanks I hadn't noticed it.

If there's nothing you can play on the wishlist you're welcome to add a lower level scenario. That's the point of this system, so tables form themselves and I don't have to pick scenarios at random and try to find people to play them.

A short but stunningly beautiful human woman rides in on a black scaled beast. Her mount is barely larger than her, which makes it possible to ride inside, but she they move with such great coordination that it doesn't seem to be a problem at all. A silvery triangle glimmers on both of their forheads. "Finally back from the jungle, damn that place was hot and I've done my bussiness at the keep to. Let me just get my bearings and we should be ready to go. Name's Avril, and this is Cryxial, my trusty companion."

I need to level Avril up to level 5, but other than that she should be ready to go (and I'll do that swiftly, she got enough XP from the scenario that just finished). Joining a 5-9 scenario that looks to be high tier sounds a bit scary, but I think it'll be fine. I am allowed right? Though the lack of casters worry me slightly. Avril's freshly learned haste should be awesome though.

Gallard grunts and hands Avril a scrap of paper with an address on it. "Get cleaned up and put a bow on your pet or something. You're going to be wining and dining with high society."

Yup, level 5 is legal. As long as you think you can keep up you're welcome to check in to the game.

"A bow? Hmm, I was considering getting a bow to shoot with, but it's quite expensive when compared to my chakrams." She pats the disks hanging from her belt. "Not sure why you think putting a bow on Cryxial is a good idea though. He doesn't have arms. And what does it have to do with high society? Do you mean like pathfinder society up in towers?" Gotta rock that 7 int

Avril shakes her head ruefully. "On the way in here I stopped by the magic item shop. I have finally gathered enough coin to get the slippers that they said would make you wade through any sorts of obstacles, whether, rubble, jagged rock or dense underbush. However now they say it only works once per day and you have to focus intensely for several seconds before it works. That makes it much less attractive. What's a girl to spend her money on now?" Avril pouts. I did not see that feather step slippers nerf coming...

The Venture-Captain is 7 int as well. I suppose he's got experience on his side. =P

"Not a bow, a bow. You know, a fancy ribbon tied up all pretty."

The brawny Venture-Captain sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose. "Kids these days. I was raised by wolves. What's her excuse?" he mutters.

I started the intro so you might want to check in soon.

"I need some agents with the fortitude to tangle with the Red Mantis assassins. It looks like one of the Society's allies is in a bit of trouble."

EndlessForms, Shifty, Codanous, and miteke please check in here for The Mantis's Prey. If you'd like to join in you have until tomorrow afternoon to speak up.

As long as you can keep up, go ahead and check in.

"Giving the Red Mantis' a good hiding? Color me interested..."

I'll jump over to the thread, I just need update my character info.

It looks like we're full currently for Mantis's Prey. If one of the sign ups flakes out you'll be alternate #1.

There is one more spot for our table though, right?

Correct.

Prisim, the colourful gnome, glances around the Flaxseed lounge.

There were a number of new faces. She smiled, her friend Janira had asked her for some assistance, and she was more than happy to help out.

Drifting between chairs, she dropped a note on a number of tables and then after sharing a wink and a smile, moved on to the next.

A quick glance showed just one line of text

"“Start where it all began. Meet us at the Pig’s Paunch one hour before dawn.”

I'm running a CORE confirmation session, as soon as I get minimum numbers. Signups here. I've also pushed back the two Black Waters games I was intending to run until after the Year of the Shadow Lodge finishes, so they will be mid July now.

I signed up with a brand new druid for CORE confirmation. I'll finish creation and post him once I get home from work in about 9 hours. It's also my first core game, so Hero Lab will be helping me out quite a lot by telling me what I can and cannot use! :)

Prisim gives a gentle nudge to Groosalugg, Liana, Durgan Goldbrow Grimstone, Kildrek Autumnwind, and Volar Lokren.

"If you stay up all night drinking, you'll miss Janira. Better head over to the Pig's Paunch now."

And room for one more if you get in in time.

Venture-Captain Ambrus Valsin ponders the list of Pathfinders who recently signed up for the mission in Diobel. "Hmmm... quite the list of worthy candidates. I wonder if any more will report for duty before I must make my choice. It certainly won't be easy..."

Everyone has until Wednesday to sign up. I'm excited to see so much interest. It's possible I'll be able to run multiple tables.

you gotta takes your chances!

I am running #7-10: The Consortium Compact for six PCs. I am the scenario's author. If you are interested, please sign up here and I will have a lottery to choose players on June 8th. In order to be eligible, you must have a full profile, with stats, for your PC. Your PC can be brand new, or an experienced 1st- or 2nd-level character. This is an evergreen scenario, so you can receive credit even if you have played before.

Would cherish this opportunity, but regrettably my bandwidth is currently near capacity. If you offer this again in the future, I would jump. And thanks for offering to GM your scenario!

I know there's all this "Year of the Shadow Lodge" excitement presently going on, but if there are any other non-CORE adventures on the near horizon for some of my other characters (levels 1-9), I'm all ears!

I'm a little confused about Year of the Shadow Lodge. Is there a reason so many folks are talking about an old PFS season?

The Year of the Shadow Lodge multi-table special is currently being run over PBP.

"They call it the mana wastes." A gaunt figure rattles his fingers on a table as he drones on. "Terrible storms, horrible mutations, it's what's left of the land after two powerful wizards destroyed themselves in a duel. Quite an interesting duel, might I add. I'll skip the details, though."

"Curiously, one village seems to be unharmed by the storms that ravage the area. It goes by the name Mercy. I've heard the Pathfinder Society is interested in learning the key to its survival." The man puts one hand on his hood and another boney hand on a parchment on the wall. "Put your name on, and let's see who will investigate..."

I'm going to run a Classic (not core) version of Season 7's Twisted Circle. It's for Tier 1-5 characters. Click on the Sign Up Sheet and sign up. I'll give it a couple of days for people to sign up before I begin.

A wily half-elf sidles into the Lodge, then grins with slightly too-sharp teeth. "It's time for me to get out and see the world- I'd be.. honored to assist with this!"

Thanks for offering to run your module- this is awesome!

They call it the mana wastes.

A stout dwarf looks up from the dual beer steins in front of him and jumps up.

No spellcasters, y'say? I had one recently almost took out my entire party. It was only the luck of the Seventh Son of a Seventh Son that saved us. Ol' Smiley could go for some no magic users.

Yeah, I'm aware there may be even more weird magic there. But Smiley isn't.

"I'm looking for agents familiar with the Mierani Forest. Some rapport with Sheila Heidmarch wouldn't hurt too", venture-captain Stormeye bellows.

RyckyRych, qwerty1971, Tarondor/Karos Valdian, NN959, and GM AArvid check in here for Tower of the Ironwood Watch. Vahanian you're an alternate if someone flakes out.

"Looks like there was supposed to be a Venture-Captain in contact with a group of Pathfinders, but the VC stopped communicating with them. Any VCs around want to help?"

Specifically, there's a game of Dawn of the Scarlet Sun that needs a GM to fill in. PM me if you're up for it.

Aarvid can't make it so you're in Vahanian.

"Hmpf, you signed up quickly...I may have to split you into multiple teams to resolve this...I'll wait a little longer. There's always a few stragglers."

I wanted to run a low and high subtier of this, and it looks like my wishes may come true. I'll wait another day or so before picking. Note that some players won't be ready until the weekend.

Here's the lottery for my Consortium Compact sign up sheet. Thank you for your interest. If you were not selected this time around, keep an eye out for my future games.

I have decided to run two tables of six players each at this time. The highest twelve numbers are the lottery winners. The winners represent a wide variety of classes, so I simply assigned tables based on your lottery rolls.

The confirmed players are:

Table A (link)
Escharid (99), GM Evil (95), Valjoen_KC (94), Michael Hallet (90), Faelyn (90), and Paladin of Baha-who? (86).

Table B (link)
Miteke (86), Tarondor (79), Mike Garlington (68), Caro Cogitatus (66), edwardsobel (61), and caps (58).

I will also notify these players by PM.

Please report in to your table's discussion thread by Friday, June 10th at 2:00pm PST, or you may lose your seat to an alternate.

I can play high tier without issue.
