Can anyone recommend a 1st-lvl adventure where there's little combat and mostly roleplaying? It can also be 3.5 and even something from Dungeon; I'm planning on running a pbem game for total RPG newbies, and I find it best to restrict combat severely. However, I feel too shaky as a DM to design an adventure myself, so any recommendations are really, really welcome.

Most of the modules are balanced between the two, but RP wise Hangman's Noose, Falcon's hollow and maybe Godmouth heresy are good and can be expanded upon, though Falcon's hollow is likely the best start if you going to add RP content to it.
My falcon's hollow game, I added some more RP in town for the players
AZ's Falcons Hollow
If you want a good RP game you need to create a living world, and that does require work and effort.
Example is the "AZ's Frosty Hill RP Town" thread. All the NPCs I personally stated out, gave personality notes, and goals. They react to words and actions like a real person, based on their persona, experience and goals.

The Pathfinder Society has three free modules in the First Steps series. Download them from the Paizo Store into your downloads on Paizo. The first one has a variety of tasks. There is only one major combat, which takes place in a cramped space. Widen it up by at least five feet for absolute beginners.
Thanks for the suggestions (and the link); I'll see if my gaming club has any of those/look in the Paizo downloads. Does anyone else have any suggestions to add to them?
