Character Name: Fernardo Mattero
Character Level: Wizard(Evoker)/5
PFS #: 55792-2001
Faction Boon Slotted: Grand Archive Champion
Downtime:
SCHOOL: Spells: 3: scroll of comprehend languages; lesser healing potion
NOTE: Fernardo possesses the Bespell Weapon and Recognize Spell feats.
Abjuration: force damage
Conjuration or Transmutation: the same type as the weapon
Divination, Enchantment, or Illusion: mental damage
Evocation: a type the spell dealt, or force damage if the spell didn’t deal damage
Necromancy: negative damage
If you are trained in the appropriate skill for the spell’s tradition and it’s a common spell of 2nd level or lower, you automatically identify it (you still roll to attempt to get a critical success, but can’t get a worse result than success). The highest level of spell you automatically identify increases to 4 if you’re an expert, 6 if you’re a master, and 10 if you’re legendary. The GM rolls a secret Arcana, Nature, Occultism, or Religion check, whichever corresponds to the tradition of the spell being cast. If you’re not trained in the skill, you can’t get a result better than failure.
Critical Success You correctly recognize the spell and gain a +1 circumstance bonus to your saving throw or your AC against it.
Success You correctly recognize the spell.
Failure You fail to recognize the spell.
Critical Failure You misidentify the spell as another spell entirely, of the GM’s choice.

I suppose that I should have included a couple of extra special things that Gregol can do:
In addition, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to Perception checks whenever you’re trying to locate an undetected creature that is within the range of your scent.
If a creature emits a heavy aroma or is upwind, the GM can double or even triple the range of scent abilities used to detect that creature, and the GM can reduce the range if a creature is downwind.
Gregol, can you post in Gameplay so that you show up as a character?
You can "dot and delete" (post a single dot, and then delte the post) or you can just make an intro post.
You can all make intro posts.

Can I get some help with the boons? ... 1 faction boon, 1 advanced boon and 3 general?
Pregens don't have boons. Boons are things that come from adventures your character has played in the past, or things that you have purchased for your character with Fame points.
Am I getting it right you have 3 school points for items.
Pregens don't have schools, but they get the school items. Basically, pick two items from this list:
Holy water, lesser bomb, lesser antidote, lesser antiplague, minor healing potion, Lesser healing potion, potion of water breathing
I suggest two lesser healing potions.
overwhelming
I'll be honest - I kind of agree. It's a lot of work for at best minor improvements to the playing experience. I suggest putting in minimal effort.
For your two items, two healing potions of the highest level you can afford will always be a decent choice. Everyone loves healing.
When you start accumulating boons, there are slots, but you'll have fewer boons than slots for a while. Almost everything is a General boon, and the Advanced slot can be used to hold a General boon. You get a free Faction Champion boon when you start (the one your character is "in") so just use that for your Faction boon, and you'll probably play 5-6 adventures before you get 4 boons, and then another 3-4 before you have to make an actual choice about which boon is better. By that time, you'll be pretty acquainted with the system.
99% of the reward is playing Pathfinder, 1% is from all the Pathfinder Society stuff. But if you're not careful, 90% or even 80% of the work you put in ends up being Pathfinder with 10-20% of the work doing all the weird Society stuff like boons, and it's a pretty bad effort/reward ratio.

I found out the hard way that the scroll staff functions as a scroll. You cast from it like a scroll and you have to scribe the spell like a scroll...ie: during your downtime. I had purchased mine with the hope of casting Feather Fall from it as a reaction, but you can't. Mine has Levitate currently scribed. After this I will be 6L and will replace it with a Staff of Evocation.
Player Name: Bdubs
Character Name: Valeros
Character Level: 3
PFS#: 2390809
Slotted Boons: Lessor Healing potion, potion of water breathing
Downtime Activities: Subsist
My only request is that one of two things happen (preferably both):
1. You're very clear about where you're moving from and moving to.
2. After someone moves you, post a message saying you've been moved.
Otherwise, a direction like "move me 15' southeast" could accidentally get done twice. :)
So you did ... not sure what happened there. I either missed an entire post or something funky. Apologies.
The woods is difficult terrain, but they were only hidden before because they were actively hiding. You are able to target with spells.
1. You can roll, and you can use your Hero Point if you want to reroll.
2. Yes - thank you for reminding me. I agree, Arlo's color spray was yuge, and he gets a second Hero Point.
Bdubs, can you give me the PFS number and faction for the character this credit would likely be applied to?
I can change it later, but I'll need a placeholder now to report the game.
We're approaching the end of the scenario (if you can't tell, I've begun filling out Chronicles).
Are any of you interested in continuing with another quest? I'm probably going to offer Quest #5 (Dragon who Stole Evoking Day) or Quest #8 (Shadows of the Black Sovereign).
I've played both on VTT. Q5 was very fun, Q8 was meh when I played it but primarily because my Internet connection was so poor that I had a real hard time understanding everyone (one of the reasons I want to run it is because I'm still not 100% sure what happened).
I haven't purchased either scenario, but if there's at least 3 of you from this quest that can agree on one of those two, I'll do that one and do open recruitment for the remaining seats.
That's all, folks!
Primary Objective: Recover the documents [X]
Amateur Adjuster Boon: 12 points [X]
Chronicles for everyone except Valeros can be found here.
Valeros, I will need a PFS number before I can complete your sheet, and I'll upload it inot the same folder.
For anyone who's rolling over into Q5, please post in this Gameplay.
Missed a lot while off at work.
If credit can go to my 1st level character: # 2390809-2001 great.
Like previously stated this was my first PFS so im still learning.
As long as you're still okay showing me some of the ropes I'd hope in again.
Inactivating this campaign. PM me with anything else you need.
