Hi, team, your discussion thread is open!
Ok, it's getting close, team! Please provide your information for chronicles/reporting here.
I just wanted to make sure everyone here saw the news that Gameday will not be starting for 2 weeks, so our game will also be delayed by that long. Please continue to provide your reporting details.

'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!"
We're still waiting for chronicle information for some characters before being able to start the game.
Perhaps people should chime in to see if we still have a valid table. It is quiet in here for day 1.
Thanks for letting me know, Akaash.
We're still waiting for chronicle information from Drelluendast and Jurmo. I'll send them a PM later today if they still have not checked in.

Goodness! I dotted into the Gameplay thread, but wasn't getting any notifications that there were new posts in the discussion thread. Sorry everyone!
Name: Hawthwile
Character: Drelluandast
PFS #: 264524-11
Faction: Dark Archives
Progression: Standard (no slow track)
Day Job:
If it turns out we need a change of party balance, I have other characters in this level range available.
If you are purchasing a scarf, please let me know from which book and for what cost here in discussion.
I am unable to view the map on slide 2. I get some kind of rendering error. Is this going to be a problem?
It will only make things a little harder. The actual combat map should be fine, but evidently there is something off about the sketch map so that it does not copy properly.

The Adventurer's Armory lists Scarf from prices ranging from 1SP-5GP.
Let us go with 1 GP as a standard good quality scarf. I also own Ultimate Equipment.
My character has also purchased a Blood Boiling Pill for 75 gp.
His toad familiar is not participating in combat but he can hide as well within the scarf for story reasons.
I'm going to wait just a little longer to make sure everyone has made a purchase who wants to. Then we'll move into the museum.
I need some rather detailed information from each character as to what they are holding and wearing as we enter the museum. I can't say too much without ruining part of the scenario, but small details may matter.

Drelluandast is wearing a floppy straw hat, a woolen scarf in blues and grays, a blue tunic that matches his beard, comfortable pants with a pouch tied around the waist, and soft brown leather boots. He is carrying a hand-sized chalkboard (which is currently a mix of yellows and golds) in one hand, with a piece of chalk in the other for quick sketches. He tends to drop the chalk when startled - thankfully, it’s relatively cheap.

Jurmo is wearing the clothing of a Sczarni vagabond, currnetly in dark black and grey thanks to the sleeves of many colors. In his left hand he caries a odd bundle of linked metal rods, a nine-section whip. His outfit has many hidden pockets containing his various components. Before entering he would pull a straight wooden wand from his pack and slide it into his belt for ease of access before putting the pack back on and cinching it tight.
Merya and Solemnia?
People please read box text going forward. I do not want the Mists to win too easily.
^ Indeed. :) All is well that ends well.
I don't want to be rude but players that refuse to enter the room and then do not participate in combat really have no place at the table.
She is not even helping from the door.
Guys if you could help me finish the Ghoul this round before it gets to attack again it would be appreciated.
If everyone is having fun with the current derailment, I can let it go for a little longer, but we don't want to get stuck here for too long.
I would really rather get back to the adventure. We started a bit late and I would like to complete it with all four players actually participating in the adventure. It is PFS and not a home game.
I agree with the mage
Sorry, not able to make a detailed post today. I'm spending the night in my baby's hospital room and have only my phone for internet.
I hope everything is ok with your baby. Don't worry about the game.
My posting may be a little spotty until Monday night. I will try to keep up.
Hello, all! GM Redelia asked me to step as a guest GM over the next several days to help you move along through the scenario and also allow her to devote necessary time to her family.
I'll look over the gameplay thread and get a post up within the next 24 hours. Just as a heads up, my availability will be a limited this coming weekend, particularly Friday and Saturday.
Thanks for stepping in.
I hope that everything works out fine for GM Redelia and family.
This module would have been fun with a party of first level (Core) characters when it was released. Good TPK material. ;)
We are essentially playing with three characters. The other character either disappears or makes cryptic posts to the GM instead of straight up combat actions. My character is playing down which helps enormously. Access to pearls of power and 2nd level spells really helps a lot. If those creatures were not webbed it would be bad news.
Tier 1-5 has probably the most disparity of power levels in the entire game.
