Welcome Pathfinders!

As usual, I'll need your school items and slotted boons. I'll have the sign-up sheet tab up later today.

Boon: Fane's Friend (General)

Boon: Promotional Vestments (promotional) I do have 3 tee-shirts (ie. Year of the Demon) that I normally wear for conventions. Not sure if the faction pins are still in play since they were an older PF1 items.

I think that is what I can do.

I do not have enough fame or in the Reputation Tier for the faction boons that I have any interest in.

What are the school items?

Oooh, Hammick, tell me more about your promotional boon! Where’d you get it??

Also, I think we might be waiting because Gabros has already played this one.


Well, I can just change the name of the thread or just use this one even though the name won't match.


Hi - I play with Inzo IRL, he pointed me at this game and I was hoping I could sign up.

I haven't yet created my character but I intend to play Inzo's uncle Nazgub, a frostfur goblin bard.

Paizo ID is 267017


Oh joy! It'll be math crunching time!

Welcome to the game, Campbell, we're starting sometime next week.

Woop woop! I can't. We'll be doing Q8 right, so going to Numeria.

Exciting! Season 6 of PFS1 was pretty good.

Easiest thing to do is keep the math crunching responsibility on the bard ;)

I have created my character.

As a fresh character I have no Boons etc.

My character story and details of my instrument are linked in that sheet, but here is a direct link:

Uh, Deneve, if you could let me know if you're OK with what I've done here it would be appreciated :-)

Given that PFS has a "no mechanical homebrew" rule in effect, it might be simplest to represent the gnomophone using existing item rules. For example, say that you have an adventurers pack, lute, quiver, 10x stones mechanically, and then flavour wise you say all of that is my gnomophone.

That works by the RAW nature of PFS, and also in reality is the exact same result as you described in your lovely drive post. I got a damn good chuckle out of the read.

Hey GM, I think I just found an error on my last chronicle (Port Peril Pub Crawl). I think Orla's Reputation is 11, not 9 as you have listed. Her fame is 9 because she spent 2 fame points to get her current wayfinder a few quests back.

As far as this scenario goes, Orla will get a lesser eagle-eye elixir and lesser antidote.

She will slot her Traveler of the Spirit Road boon along with her Friend of Grehunde (Legacy of the Gorget) and Friend of the Fane (Stella) boons. She'll spend her time at the Grand Lodge working within the Library.

Downtime Check (Library Lore): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11


Thank you, Orla. Yes, it's more than likely my mistake. I also owe Inzo some chronicle sheets that he ate (to help the Southern Squall go down) before his Uncle could stop him. I'll try to get them out this week or sooner.

Also, it's nice to see we'll be playing together during Outpost III. My cleric tends to get knocked down a lot.

Also, I updated my spells, GM. It's all in my profile.


Your corrected sheet is up, Orla. Now I need to check Inzo's.

Thanks! My sheets look good. Looking forward to the next game.

The only downside with this quest is no game until the 25th. MAN has it never felt so long.

I know. In my case, things feel as if they've slowed down drastically. Once the quest is up, we'll probably begin by Inzo and Uncle reuniting and getting to meet others either at Numeria or on the way to Numeria. I'm sure Hammick and Bert will appreciate another boat trip if there's one on this adventure.


Two more days. Hope everyone is ready. As soon as the quest is available I'm downloading it and we'll begin immediately.

Well that was non-intuitive, but sorted.


Today is the day of the release. Come on, Paizo!

Teneb, has ubiquitous been told of the quest? I believe he's the only one who hasn't reported in.

In light of the no-Homebrew statement above I've done the following to adhere to RAW:

Bought a Lute, Drums, Dulcimer, and am counting their weight and cost.

Will play one of these at any given time as my instrument.

Have hung the instruments from the outside of my pack in reach of my tail. I can bang the drum with my tail for flavour but a tail cannot be used as one of the hands for the 2 handed requirement for an instrument, the instrument for the purposes of Perform/Bard spells will be held in my hands taking up both.

Wear the Belt Pouchs on my belt and have the stones and bolts in them.

Dropped 5 Gold into a donation box at a Temple of Desna.

These mechanics are standard and RAW with the possible exception of banging the drum for no effect with my tail.

I will still flavour/describe the Gnomophone as written up in the background but the mechanics underpinning the description are RAW (and I always intended this to be the case).

Like they say. When it rains, it pours.

We have hit a bit of a snag, guys. Paizo on the website has the quest listed as a tier 1-4 game, but the PDF says and is built for tier 3-6.

So while Paizo confirms which one is it and if the tier 3-6 is a mistake, we will have to switch quests again. Sorry.

You'll be able to see in the quest what level the enemies are. If it has lv4+ enemies for the main enemy or most of the enemies are 2 and 3 then it'll be a 3-6. I'm assuming it's a 3-6.

I've made a google sheet to find out what quests are able for us to play. I get the feeling that we can only do the repeatables, or do a scenario.

Here goes anyhow...

Let us know what you can play here!

Urrrrgh. Downloaded it yesterday but didn’t look. Looking now - it most DEFINITELY is a Tier 3-6.

Oh well, Sandstone Secrets is replayable!


At this point I'm down for a quest or scenario, whichever you all prefer.

As the GM, I think you get to choose what you want to run, but we can add the scenarios onto my google sheet and find one that we all have done.

Deneve how about you add some scenarios which you want to GM onto the sheet and we'll add which ones we can play on it.

I'm happy to do sandstone secret at the very least.

Whatever is decided, I'm on board.


I'm in for either the Sandstone Secret or Lions of Katapesh.

I can do Lions, though if I do one more quest I get to 2nd level.

Could we do Sandstone? Please?


Let's do Sandstone then.

If you have played the quest already, just send put in spoiler tags what you faced in the game and we'll begin either today or tomorrow.
