Hi everyone. This event will officially start on Monday the 26th.

Hi everyone. This event will officially start on Monday the 26th.
I need to know if the PC you're playing at has played in any of these scenarios. Since you're below level 2, probably not. There was a typo in one of the quest descriptions, so I'll post the correct list here.
#3-12 Wonders in the Weave I

#3-21 Temple of Empyreal Enlightenment

Also, I have not played any of those scenarios with this character.
Gameday has been pushed back by 2 weeks starting on the 9th of September and ending on the 17th of November.
Good for me, since I haven't gotten the materials yet and I wouldn't be able to start the game without them.
Bad for me, since I have to wait another 2 weeks.
If this changes any of your character decisions, feel free to drop me a line. I'm still waiting for 1 more PC to check in at this point.

Gameday has been pushed back by 2 weeks starting on the 9th of September and ending on the 17th of November.
"Cataclythm averted, Mathter!"
I just got the materials, so I'll be spending this weekend preparing frantically.
In this event, you can use an Aid Token to gain one of the benefits below. At the end of an encounter in which the token was used, pass it to another table that does not have an Aid Token. If you don’t need the token, you can pass it to another table without using it.
Before passing the token, you can perform a particular action to boost the effect. You can only attempt an action to boost an aid token once before passing it. Each mission during Part 2 unlocks a special boost.
GM Chadius says: I encourage us to use the tokens within 48 hours of receiving it. If we don't use it by then, I'll ask us to simply pass the token along to another party and then pass it 72 hours after receiving it.
To Boost: Succeed at an attack roll against an AC equal to the difficulty of an Average skill check.
Boosted Effect: Increase the damage dealt by 1d8. Write Allied Offensive (+1d8) on the Aid Token.
Special Boost: Once during the adventure, a table that has completed a particular mission can automatically boost this Aid Token and increase the damage dealt by 2d8. Write Allied Offensive (+2d8) on the Aid Token.
To Boost: Expend one use of channel positive energy or cast one spell with the (healing) descriptor with a spell level greater than or equal to 2. A PC must cast this spell, not simply activate a magic item.
Boosted Effect: Increase the healing by 2d6.
Special Boost: Once during the adventure, a table that has completed a particular mission can boost this Aid Token without expending resources.
To Boost: Succeed at a combat maneuver check against a CMD equal to an Average skill check.
Boosted Effect: The combat maneuver check gains a +2 bonus. Write Coordinated Maneuvers (+2) on the Aid Token.
Special Boost: Once during the adventure, a table that has completed a particular mission can automatically boost this Aid Token and increase the bonus to +4. Write Coordinated Maneuvers (+4) on the Aid Token.
To Boost: Cast one of the following spells: lesser restoration, neutralize poison, remove curse, or remove disease. Only these spells may be granted. Write Provide Spellcasting, the spell granted, and the caster level on the Aid Token.
Special Boost: Once during the adventure, a table that has completed a particular mission can increase the spell’s caster level by 4 when boosting this Aid Token.
To Boost: Succeed at a Knowledge check of your choice. Write Share Knowledge on the Aid Token, noting the type of the check and the difficulty reached (Easy, Average, or Hard).
Special Boost: Once during the adventure, a table that has completed a particular mission can automatically grant a success on a Hard skill check when boosting this token.
To Boost: Expend 3 rounds of bardic performance or a similar ability.
Boosted Effect: Increase the bonus by 1. Write Timely Inspiration on the Aid Token.
Special Boost: Once during the adventure, a table that has completed a particular mission can extend the duration of the boost to 6 rounds. Write Timely Inspiration (6 rounds) on the Aid Token.
Yup, this player was a GM for a game I played in and disappeared halfway through. I'm hoping they come back so I don't need to try to invite a new 6th person. Sometimes I wind up with 7 PCs that way.
The special starts in less than 2 days. Please click on this link, go to slide 2, and confirm you can move your icons around.
Slide 2 also has a suggested marching order when traveling in a single row or 2 at a time. Please rearrange to your heart's content.
I will add the slides link to my profile and to the campaign info.
Why hello there, Pathfinders! I'm Dana the Doppelgänger, and I'm here to "Bot" anyone who is absent for more than 36 hours. I'll post in your name so the game doesn't grind to a halt. No one likes that!
If you know you'll be absent for a while, please leave a post indicating you'll be gone so I know to step in immediately. Also leave some instructions telling me how you want to be botted. Here's an example you can adjust and put in your profile.
Daily: Cast Heroism and Magic Circle Against Evil on myself as soon as we enter a dungeon.
Combat: Round 1, I'll begin bardsong for Inspire Courage +2 and cast Haste.
I'll try to flank and use my Longsword with Arcane Strike.
[dice=Longsword, Inspire Courage, flanking]1d20+6+2+2[/dice
[dice=Damage]1d8+3+2[/dice
(add closing square brackets ] to those attack rolls in your profile so they can be copied easily)
Thanks for helping me keep the game moving!

With apologies to Clement Clarke Moore
'Twas the night before Game Day, when all through the house
not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The minis on the mantle had been painted with care,
in hopes that St. Jacobs soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
while visions of adventure played on in their heads.
And Mama with her fighter, and my redeemed Darkfire Adept,
had just stolen into the lair of that false Razmiran sect.
When out on the roof there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the couch to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like CW's Flash,
tore open the shutter, and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
gave the lustre of midday to objects below,
when, what to my wondering eyes should into view dance,
but a miniature sleigh and eight writers who freelance!
With a haggard editor, fresh from an all-nighter,
I knew in a moment it must be Wes Schneider!
More rapid than eagles, his coursers they came,
and he whistled and shouted and called them by name:
"Now Tim! Now Amber!
Now, Greg and Russell!
On, Richard! On, Nick!
On, John and Michael!
To the top of the porch!
To the top of the wall!
Now dash away! Dash away!
Dash away all!"
As dry leaves that before the wind elemental fly,
when they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky
so up to the house-top the coursers they flew,
with the sleigh full of gamer swag, and audio dramas too.
And then, craning my ear to the roof perpendicular
I could hear the heavy tread boots of each contributor.
As I drew in my head and was turning around,
down the chimney Young Wes came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fake fur, for they are not overfond
of that sort of thing in blue Washington's progressive Redmond.
A bundle of books he had flung on his back,
and he looked like a peddling librarian opening his pack.
His eyes--how they twinkled! His dimples, how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
and the beard on his chin was in need of a mow.
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
and the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath.
He looked a bit high, and slightly less then regal,
but that's what you get in a State where pot is half-legal.
His character, a multi-class ninja, pirate, half-dinosaur elf,
its huge Hero Lab™ sheet made me laugh, in spite of myself.
With a wink of his eye and a flip of his thumb
he showed me the new archetype that was yet to come.
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his editing work,
and corrected our character sheets, even Bill's the rules jerk.
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
and giving a nod, up the chimney he rose.
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, 'ere he drove out of sight,
"Happy Game Day to all, and to all a good game night!"

I have a couple of different Igors running (loping?) about the boards, each from a different town so you can tell them apart. All of them are stealthy enough to suddenly and unexpectedly appear behind their 'Mathterth'.
He follows most of the Igor tropes: being surprisingly tough, being stealthy, being good at medicine, and a capable alchemist. He however does not 'throw things' like many alchemists do nor does he do a 'Mr. Hyde'. That's what his friend Scraps is for.
So, for planned absences:
I'm visiting a client this week, and then on Friday to Monday I'm going to Texas to visit the in-laws. I should be able to post this week daily.
On September 27 it's my honeymoon. I leave on Friday and return on Monday. I won't be able to post frequently then.
Thanks GM Lorenzo!
Let's use this Aid Token within the next 48 hours.
I'll autobot the rest of the PCs tomorrow morning.
Hi everyone. We'll be starting part 2 soon.
Aid Token incoming!
Passing To: Passing To: GM Chadius
Boost: Burst of Healing
Boosted By: The acolytes of the Temple of Empyreal Enlightenment
As a reminder, you don't have to use the boost. Not using the boost on the Aid Token lets another table use it.
If no one has a use for it by tomorrow, I'll just pass it along to another table that needs it.
We're in the final stretch of the special. We have about 1 week remaining. Please make sure your character information is correct. Errors will prevent me from reporting for the entire team.
You have 2 rounds to heal and prepare before the fight begins, so heal or buff accordingly.
Good luck, Igor. I'll bot you for now to keep things moving.
Good job, everyone, and thanks for playing. I'll try to make the chronicle sheets this weekend.
In the meantime, let's see if we won some boons. I'll roll a 1d20 and if it's 19 or 20, you win!
Congratulations, Evelyn! You won the
Debt to Society boon. Can you message me your email address so Paizo can send you the boon?
CLICK HERE to download your chronicles. Please check for any errors and I will gladly update them.
The chronicle sheet is all yours. Everyone in the special has the Radiant Ruby Feathers boon, and the other boon requires you to pick one bonus and cross out the rest.
Sorry everyone. My wife is having back issues and haven’t been able to keep up with everything. GM thanks for bottling me. My sheet looks good. Hope to play with everyone again.

You don't have to be an Igor to know that back issues (pain issues in general, really) are bad. Long-term pain and (very often) the meds used to treat it can just suck the joy from life. I hope everyone's doing better where you are Grumpel.
I've submitted everyone's chronicles for gameday.
