Playing The Cosmic Captive

Pathfinder Society Special #8–00: The Cosmic Captive is an interactive event in which many tables contribute to a shared success. Both Pathfinder Society Roleplaying Guild and Pathfinder Society Adventure Card Guild players will participate in the same adventure! An Overseer GM coordinates the event, making announcements and tallying reported results over the course of the adventure. It’s important that everyone pause play and listen when the Overseer GM makes announcements. When the table successfully finishes a scenario, the Box Runner will report your results and receive the materials needed to set up the next scenario.

The event has three parts. In Part 1, tables will be mustered and players will be seated, unpack dice, and introduce themselves. During this time, set up Scenario 8-00A and read the opening text aloud. Don’t begin playing until the Overseer GM cues the start of Part 2 by reading out the opening scene. After successfully completing Scenario 8-00A, each table will choose to continue along one of two different paths: a frozen network of tunnels (Scenarios 8-00B1 and B2) and a labyrinth of fire (Scenarios 8-00C1 and C2). Play the selected path’s two scenarios in order. If there is still time remaining after successfully completing those two scenarios, you may attempt the other path.

When the Overseer GM calls an end to Part 2, immediately end the current scenario. You did not win or lose, and do not earn the scenario reward, but players can upgrade their decks. Then begin setting up Scenario 8-00D, which has two sections. Don’t begin playing until the Overseer GM announces the start of Part 3.

DURING THIS ADVENTURE
At the start of this adventure, choose whether you wish to count the adventure for purposes of tier advancement. If you choose not to count this adventure as tier advancement, you do not gain feats as provided in the Guide, but you do gain scenario rewards and deck upgrades as normal.

Do not read any scenario’s villains or henchmen before playing it.

If you die and are not returned from death before the end of a scenario, you may play another character for the next scenario.

If you fail a scenario, immediately replay it.
