Hi all! I had an extended weekend trip outside of cell service, and forgot to notify my games before I left. I'm back now, and will be checking in and posting in all of my games hopefully tonight but definitely by tomorrow (Wed). Thanks for any botting you've done, and sorry for my unexpected absence!

I just started a new job today. Until the training and acclimation settle down, my posting will be somewhat erratic, probably shifting from mornings to evenings (EDT) until I have a better feel for things.

Just so that I can plan accordingly: Do you plan to be finished with this game in time for these characters to be available for Gameday in August?

I plan to finish it before GD, yes. I'll try my very best.

And sorry about the confusion. It's not clear in the script as well. The author switches. As the Shoanti speak of a Chelish woman I tried to adapt the text to female, maybe I missed it somewhere or forgot.

Reminders:

Conclusions from the museum:
You look for clues in the Pathfinder Chronicles, compare the written words with the artifacts, tapestries and other things connected to the Shoanti history. Finally you come to the following conclusion(s).

Details of certain sites described in Helven Leroung’s published accounts differ from recent maps and surveys, suggesting she was never at those locations.

The word choice and syntax in Helven’s accounts are atypical of Chelish authorship, though suggestive of tales arising from oral traditions.

Depictions on some Shoanti reliefs predating the arrival of Chelish settlers bear striking parallels and similarities to Helven’s accounts.

Helven provided intelligence to Chelish forces regarding the location of a Shoanti tribe known to be plundering sites around the region.

Witnesses told Montlarion of a Chelish woman aiding a Shoanti tribe during the war before those Shoanti were slain.

Montlarion had an altercation with Helven regarding Shoanti artifacts, which turned violent.

You further find more background information about the Pathfinder Helven in the Chronicles and Montlarion Jeggare's notes:
Helven Leroung was a chelish noblewoman who sought acclaim as a Pathfinder. As the Everwar closed, she joined other Pathfinders in Varisia, exploiting archeological sites made accessible by Cheliax’s advancing armies. Yet, Helven sought a quicker path to prestige. Traveling out ahead of the advancing army, Helven ingratiated herself with a Shoanti tribe by warning them of an impending Chelish attack. She then secretly began transcribing the Shoanti’s oral tales of the region’s history, sites, and wildlife. He also encouraged the tribe to amass items of significance as “protection” from Chelish “invaders.”

Ultimately, Helven betrayed the tribe. She gave up the tribe’s location to Chelish forces, which garnered favor with many inhabitants of the recently-established Fort Korvosa, including Montlarion Jeggare. With the Shoanti put to the sword, Helven appropriated their tales and artifacts for herself. Laden with ill-gotten treasures, she left many relics in Montlarion’s care before departing on one of the first cargo ships to sail from the settlement.

Returning to Absalom, Helven recast the Shoanti tales as her own first-hand accounts, which were published in the Pathfinder Chronicles. Following a bloody internal struggle in the year 4411 AR, she then parlayed these accounts to secure a place among the first Decemvirate.

However, Helven’s stolen successes could not stand unchallenged forever. Helven returned to Korvosa, where the now Lord Magistrate Montlarion had begun to suspect Helven’s betrayal of the Shoanti, and the source of his supposed heroics. Montlarion questioned Helven and presented her with eyewitness testimony of a Chelish woman providing wartime aid to the Shoanti. The Korvosans demanded Helven’s ill-gotten treasures be confiscated pending further investigation.

Helven was furious and a fight erupted. Weakened, Helven fled to Absalom, while Montlarion died soon thereafter. Once divination magic confirmed all witnesses of his crimes had perished, Helven believed his secrets safe.

Discovered in the creepy woods:
Carved alongside the statue is an inscription that reads “Like the Lord of Seasons, our hoods illuminate truth, while their masks shelter deceit. Let this be the sign of our covenant. -E”

Found in the dwarves' caves:
You are able to piece together the story from the various pieces. The tablets contain an ancient ballad that tells the story of a dwarf named Jorgar Ironbellows, an ambitious noble who murdered his father to secure his inheritance, only to be assassinated by his own son in turn. The fable serves as a cautionary tale, warning others about the folly of favoring one’s own ambition above the lives of their fellow dwarves.

Maybe someone should put on Autumn's Cowl? The part we found in the woods about masks sparks my interest. The Decemvirate members are wearing masks, after all.

Ok, there's still a problem here. I just redownloaded the Scenario/Chronicle but the table still shows the old values. I checked the GM discussion and as per end of June people complain that it's still not updated. I guess this is still the case. I have to check with a Online VC to get this sorted out. Unfortunately I'm not allowed to change the Chronicle, this would make it invalid. Getting back to you as soon as I have more information.

I am looking into the updated chronicle situation. I have sent Paizo staff a message to see if we can get ahold of the updated chronicle. Though with them not working weekeneds it will be a couple of days. If nothing by mid-week then we will correct one for you.
