Mykel leads the way through the jungle, following a trail that only goes one direction: up. Not long after leaving the docks, the pathfinders have climbed to the top of a hill where a sprawling estate can be seen overlooking the ocean. Like the docks it faces away from the shipping lanes, creating a perfect secluded island hideout. The trail leads to the front entrance a set of double doors leading inside. It is two stories, with a glass roof covering the nearest section (directly above the double doors.

Sorithar let the others examine the ramshackle shacks at the docks, keeping his distance, though eyeing the contents of each as they are revealed. The lack of guardians seems to miff him somewhat.
As the party makes its way up and through the jungle, Sorithar is clearly somewhat winded, but he manages to keep pace and upon the mansion coming into view, he heaves a few times heavily and leans on his staff.
"Don't have a message incantation prepared and can't say I'm a fan of familiars, so no birds.
However, could conjure one if we deem it necessary. The lack of guardians and look outs so far seems off. They either know we're coming by other means, or they are far too confident in their privacy."
Sorither utters a quick incantation and his eyes glow a deep azure as he studies the manor, looking for hidden defenses.
"I could hide one of you from sight for a mater of minutes, so you might take a closer look..."
Can locate glyphs of warding, symbol spells, and similar magical spell traps that use writing as if he were a rogue. He can use Perception or Knowledge (arcana) to notice such traps, and can use Disable Device or Spellcraft to disable these types of traps.

He is garbed in finely wrought, though slightly worn, dark explorer's garb with plenty of pockets and pouches, some of which seem quite full. A pair of dagger hilts stick out of each of his well tailored leather boots and a smaller crossbow hangs from a hook at his waist, across from a pouch of bolts. In his hands is a well worn, black basalt staff that seems almost alive, twisting into random irregular geometric patterns. On several of his fingers are gleaming rings of gold, bronze and other hues. A finely wrought, slim silvery headband sits upon his brow.
Short, tapered wands are tucked into his waist sash and one small gemstone hovers about his head, spinning around it at a distance of roughly a foot.

Within Chronicle: letter of introduction
* Timelost Chronicler: You have journeyed through the ancient serpentfolk city of Sessegishoss and witnessed the fall of the Starstone, granting you a remarkable perspective of Golarion’s history. You gain a permanent +1 bonus on Knowledge (history) checks from your first-hand knowledge. Once per scenario you may call on the nascent power granted by your exposure to the falling Starstone to find inner greatness, granting you a +1 morale bonus to a single d20 roll. You must declare your use of this power before the roll is made.
Gloomspire Explorer []: Despite having studied only a small portion of Sevenfingers’s tomb, you are now one of the Society’s foremost authorities on the enigmatic Gloomspires. While adventuring in the Gloomspires, you receive a +2 bonus on all Perception checks made to find hidden objects such as traps, treasure, and secret doors. If you check the box included with this boon, you gain the benefits of this boon for the duration of one scenario set anywhere other than the Gloomspires.
Debt of Cyphers: You rescued ex-Pathfinder and Cyphergate scholar Hirako Gurukaza from the hands of pirate kidnappers. In thanks, he has spread your name among the Order of the Cyphers. When in Riddleport, you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (arcana) and Linguistics checks when you consult Gurukaza before making the check. In addition, the Order's connection to some of Riddleport's more powerful criminal elements also provides you a future benefit in the form of a +2 bonus on Diplomacy checks made in the city to gather information.
* Riddleport Respect: Word of your defeat of pirate captain Alejia Netrav has spread throughout Riddleport, and you've earned the respect of the criminals and thugs that call the city home. When you flex your muscle, folks in the City of Cyphers pay attention. You receive a +2 bonus on Intimidate checks made in Riddleport as a result.
* You Rescued the Minotaur Prince: You rescued Nuar Spiritskin, the Minotaur Prince of Absalom and he is quite grateful that you have done so. Though he is absolutely unclear how he got into the Tangle in the first place, he pays this no mind and spreads the tale of your daring-do to his many contacts throughout the city. You gain a permanent +1 circumstance bonus to any Intelligence or Charisma-based checks made while in Absalom.
New Recruit (J. Dacilane) []: Your team of Pathfinders sponsored J. to join the Pathfinder Society. In exchange, she is eager to assist you on one of your future missions. You can direct J. to cast a spell from the spiritualist list (Pathfinder RPG Occult Adventures 76) as a standard action. The spell’s level can be up to one third of your character level (minimum 0). J.’s caster level is equal to your character level – 3 (minimum 2), and her Wisdom score is 17. J. is a noncombatant, and she is considered to be in your square for the purpose of determining the origin of her spell. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle Sheet.
Ally of the Green [][][]: You have communed with the fugitive leshys of Anglemire and demonstrated your respect for their humble treasures. As a parting gift, the leshy Harvest Stripe gave you three gourd seeds imbued with some of the leshys' primal magic. As a standard action, you can check one of the boxes that precede this boon and consume one of these seeds as if it were a goodberry, though the seed heals 1d4+1 points of damage. Alternatively, you can feed a seed to an adjacent plant creature to grant it 5 temporary hit points and the benefits of divine favour (CL 6th) for 1 minute. When you check the last box, cross the entire boon off your Chronicle sheet.
* Archaeological Expert []: The Pathfinder Society has a strong tradition of archaeological exploration, and you have proven yourself a capable excavator and historian. You gain a +1 bonus to Appraise and Knowledge (history) checks to identify the cultural significance of art and objects. If you would fulfill the primary success conditions of an adventure but fail its secondary success conditions, you can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet and attempt an Apprise, Knowledge (history), or Profession (archaeologist) check (DC = 10 + 2*character level). If you succeed, you make a small but significant archaeological discovery that allows you, and only you, to earn the Prestige Point reward anyway. You cannot Take 10 on this check.
Imperium Initiate []: Your study of Jistkan ruins and golems has taught you a few tricks for handling the supernatural soldiers of ancient Garund. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before casting a spell to make it especially effective against constructs and divs. Those creatures take a -2 penalty on all saving throws made against the spell for 1 round. Alternatively, you can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet as a free action to treat hardness and damage reduction of all constructs and divs as 5 lower against your attacks for 1 round.
* Delvehaven Star []: You were an integral part of the Pathfinder Society’s first sanctioned expeditions in Cheliax in many years. In recognition of your role in this important milestone, the Society has imprinted your wayfinder with the Delvehaven Star—named in honor of a famous Chelish Pathfinder lodge. You gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (history, local, and nobility) checks associated with Cheliax, and you gain a +1 bonus to your initiative while adventuring in Cheliax. Furthermore, you can check the box that precedes this boon when spending Prestige Points for spellcasting services to reduce the cost by 2 (minimum 0).
* Eye for Traitors (Dark Archive faction) []: You gain a permanent +2 bonus on Sense Motive checks to tell if someone is lying and on Will saves against illusions. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet in order to re-roll a failed saving throw against an illusion effect and take the second result.
Precious Vindication []: At last! You have uncovered vital data that proves that you made the right choice under pressure, even if the common perception was that you had failed. Select one Pathfinder Society Scenario for which you earned less than the maximum number of Prestige Points. Increase the Prestige Points and Fame earned by 1 (or 0.5 if using the slow advancement track), up to the scenario’s maximum. Record the additional Prestige Points on that character’s next Chronicle sheet as well as below.
* Elemental Conquest: [] You have fought and fraternized with the guardians of Aucturn’s Tear, and although you triumphed, it is clear that this is not the last time you’ll clash with elemental forces. Choose one of the benefits below, and cross the other two off your Chronicle sheet. You may select an option only so long as you successfully completed at least one encounter in a region with that elemental affinity during this adventure.
Fire: You gain a +1 insight bonus on saving throws against spells, spell-like abilities, and effects of creatures with the fire subtype and against spells with the fire descriptor.
While adventuring on the Plane of Fire, you instead gain a +1 insight bonus on all saving throws.
As a swift action, you can check the box that precedes this boon in order to grant one weapon you wield the flaming weapon special ability for 1 minute; if the weapon already has the flaming special ability, it instead gains flaming burst for 1 minute.
Ranginori’s Debt: [][] You helped recover the Untouchable Opal, within which Ranginori, Elemental Lord of Air, is trapped. While imprisoned, his power is limited. Nonetheless, he has granted you an initial gift with the promise of greater rewards should the Society free him. You can activate this boon as a standard action by checking one of the boxes that precedes it, gaining one of the benefits based on your level when you activate the boon. For any spell-like ability, use your character level as your caster level.
Any Level: You can recall a spell slot or prepared spell you already cast that day. The spell is prepared again or the spell slot is available for use again, as if it had not been used already.
Levels 1–4: You cast cat’s grace, cure moderate wounds, lesser restoration, or shocking grasp as a spell-like ability.
Levels 5–8: Add cure serious wounds, fly, and lightning bolt to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 9–11: Add call lightning storm and cure critical wounds to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 12+: Add heal and whirlwind to the list of spell-like abilities you can use, though both of these spell-like abilities requires you to check both boxes.
Tome of First Contact [X][][][][]: You have recovered a strange tome that details utterly bizarre creatures rarely seen on your world. After rolling a Knowledge check to identify an aberration, ooze, or outsider (or a creature that is not native to Golarion) and learning the results, you can check one or more boxes that precede this boon. For each box you check, you can learn one additional piece of information, as if your Knowledge check result had been 5 higher. If you did not succeed at the Knowledge check in the first place, you can check one box to succeed at the Knowledge check to learn one piece of information plus the creature’s name, type, and subtypes.
Once you check the last box, you’ve expended the tome’s greatest secrets. It remains a curious keepsake.
Ectoplasmic Enhancement []: You recovered a sample of concentrated ectoplasm from the Gloomspires. You may activate this ectoplasm as a swift action to treat all of your natural attacks, unarmed strikes, and weapon attacks as if they had the ghost touch property for 1 round. If you have at least one level in the spiritualist class, the ghost touch property persists for 3 rounds and also affects her phantom’s natural attacks. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.
Aid of the Overwatched [][]: You returned Ralzeros the Overwatched to Golarion and convinced him to lend his aid to the Dark Archive. In thanks for your help, Ralzeros convinces his familiar Daosvaria to send a piece of her essence and knowledge to assist you.
Instead of taking Daosvaria as a familiar, you can call her forth to share fragments of Ralzeros’s knowledge. Check a box that precedes this boon to roll a single Knowledge check using a bonus of 5 plus your character level in place of your typical bonus. If your own bonus is higher, you may instead gain a +2 bonus on the Knowledge check.
If you use this benefit, cross the option to take Daosvaria as a familiar off your Chronicle sheet.
Blessing of Nivi [X][X][][]: Your efforts on behalf of Kalsgard’s gnome population have drawn the attention, and blessing of the gnome goddess Nivi Rhombodazzle. This boon has different effects depending on your race. If you are a non-gnome, you may check a box next to this boon to cast blur as a swift action, with a caster level equal to your total character level. Once you have checked all the boxes next to this boon, you gain Gnome as a bonus language; this has no further effect for characters who already speak Gnome.
Gnomes of the North [][][]: You have befriended the gnomes of Kalsgard and found a home away from home at the Hall of Seven Wagers. You can check a box next to this boon to use either Bluff, Knowledge (local), or Sleight of Hand to make your Day Job check at the end of an adventure, doubling the amount of gold normally received for the result of your check. If you already have the ability to use one of these skills to make a Day Job check, checking a box instead grants you a +2 bonus on such a check, in addition to doubling the gold received as normal. This boon’s doubling effect does not stack with other benefits that would multiply the result of your Day Job check.)
Ghalcor’s Spellcraft: Following the battle at Ghalcor’s Tower, you were able to study the dead cleric’s notes and discovered that he also developed a handful of powerful spells. Now the Pathfinder Society and the Mendevian Crusade can wield these in the fight against the Worldwound. So long as you possess this boon, all of your Pathfinder Society Organized Play characters have access to the following spells from Pathfinder Player Companion: Demon Hunter’s Handbook as if they appeared on the Additional Resources page: burst with light, detect demon, and righteous blood.
Mendevian Commendation: You have received a medal for your service to Mendev and the Fifth Crusade. For every Mendevian Commendation you have, you gain a cumulative +1 bonus on Charisma-based skill and ability checks made to influence crusaders of Mendev (maximum +3).
Elixir of Renewal: [][] You gain a special elixir that you can consume as if it were a potion in order to restore 2d8+5 hit points as well as 1d4 points of one type of ability damage. You can use the potion only once, even if the user is under the effects of alchemical allocation (Pathfnder RPG Advanced Player’s Guide 201) or a similar effect that would allow one to benefit from a potion multiple times. Check the box that precedes this boon when you use this elixir.
[STRIKE]Righteous Redemption: [X] Thanks to your work bringing a lost hero’s legacy to light, key leaders in the crusader nation of Lastwall have begun seeing Pathfnders less as ruffians and more as potential allies. Between adventures or while in Lastwall, you can check the box that precedes this boon to requisition one of the following: a satchel containing six flasks of holy water and an oil of bless weapon; two scrolls of lesser restoration; a combat-trained warhorse (heavy or light) with a military saddle, bit, bridle, and week of feed; a masterwork longsword; or a masterwork lance. This gear is yours to do with as you please, but it has an effective resale value of 0 gp.[/STRIKE]
Worthy Foe: [][][] Lastwall is the Inner Sea’s bulwark against countless evils, and you have proven yourself against a local villain. As a swift action, you can check a box that precedes this boon to gain one of two benefits against enemies that correspond to the threat you defeated. First, you can choose to gain a +2 bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls against such creatures, as well as a +2 dodge bonus to AC against such creatures’ attacks.
Alternatively, you can gain a +2 bonus on caster level checks to overcome those creatures’ spell resistance, increase the save DC of your spells and abilities against those creatures by 1, and gain a +2 bonus on saving throws against those creatures’ spells and abilities. Either benefit lasts until the beginning of your next turn.
Tusks: You gain the benefits above against magical beasts and humanoids with the orc subtype.
Duskwarden’s Favor: [] Your actions below Kaer Maga have impressed the Duskwardens, and these guides teach you some of their tricks for safely navigating dangerous caverns. You can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to gain the ranger favored terrain ability (+2) in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario. If you already have favored terrain in underground environments, add 2 to the bonuses that you gain in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario.
What Ambush? (Scout Mission): [][] Your experience in Gallowspire has sharpened your senses against
hidden foes. When you would fail a Perception check to act on the surprise round, you can check a box that
precedes this boon to act on the surprise round. You are still considered flat-footed until you take an action.
Alternatively, you can check a box to reroll an initiative check.
Unravel Magic (Spellcaster Mission): [][] You have friends who know their way around magic. Check the box that precedes this boon as a swift action. A Pathfinder ally briefly enters the fight and casts dispel magic, with a caster level equal to your character level. If your character level is at least 13 when you activate this boon, your ally can cast greater dispel magic instead.
Timely Delivery (Muscle Mission): [][] No matter where you travel, you can count on one of your Pathfinder allies to keep you ready. You can spend 1 minute and 2 PP and check the box that precedes this boon to gain an item costing 750 gp or less. Unlike a normal purchase made with PP, you do not need to be anywhere near a settlement to acquire the item.
Tactical Strike (Guard Mission): [] You can rally your allies to make a coordinated strike. Check the box
that precedes this boon as a swift action and select one opponent. Until the beginning of your next turn, you
and all of your allies deal an additional 1d8 points of damage on all attacks against that opponent. You are
considered to be flanking that opponent if at least two of your allies are threatening that foe, regardless of
your actual positioning.
Restorative Burst (Medic Mission): [] A spark of divine grace from your medic allies protects you. When
you would be reduced to less than 0 hit points, you can check the box that precedes this boon to automatically
trigger a burst of healing around your body. This heals you and all willing allies within 30 feet, as the channel
energy ability of a cleric of your level.
Necromantic Surge: [][][][] You can check a box that precedes this boon to strike foes with the Whispering
Tyrant’s magic, using one of the following spell-like abilities based on your level when you activate this boon.
Use your character level as your caster level, and use your Charisma modifier to determine the spell’s DC.
Levels 5–8: You can use a spell-like ability from the following list: bestow curse, command undead, enervation,
false life, fear, or vampiric touch.
Levels 9–12: Add eyebite, possession (Pathfinder RPG Occult Adventures 181), and waves of fatigue to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Levels 13–16: Add control undead, finger of death, and greater possession (Occult Adventures 181) to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two boxes to use these spells.
Levels 17+: Add energy drain and wail of the banshee to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two
boxes to use these spells.
Echoing Paradox: [] A trace of the magic of the Sanctum of Lost Ages clings to you, and against all odds and reason, a future or past version of you can appear to provide assistance in a time of need. Before you roll an attack roll, a skill check, or a saving throw, a copy of you appears either to flank with you or to grant you a +2 bonus as per the aid another action. If you have an ability that grants a higher bonus on aid another actions, you gain this as a bonus instead; the copy also shares all of your teamwork feats. After the attack, skill check, or save is resolved, the copy fades away, and you are shaken until the end of your next turn by the unsettling paradox of being at two places at once.
Aggressive Researcher: [] You have proven your mettle in Absalom’s greatest libraries, and in the course of your research, you uncovered many facts that were not immediately relevant but might one day prove useful. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a Knowledge (arcana, history, or planes) check in order to treat your final check result as if it were 25, even if you are not trained in the skill. Alternatively, you may instead gain a +5 bonus on the check.
Acquainted with Aslynn: The entity known as Aslynn knows who you are and what you did in the Forae Logos. Whether this is to your advantage or detriment is as yet unknown.
Impossible Feat: [] The extraordinary actions possible within a dream might not be possible while awake, but you nonetheless dream of performing a similarly spectacular deed. You may cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a skill check, saving throw, or attack roll to add 1d6 to the result of your check. If you roll a 6, roll the six-sided die again and combine the results. You may repeat this process up to twice for a maximum additional bonus of +18.
Charted Pillars: You can borrow a copy of Venture-Captain Norden Balentiir’s map of the Pillars of the Sun while traveling to that region. The map is imperfect, but it provides enough sufficient information about safe routes through the mountains that you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (geography) and Survival checks made when navigating the area.
Recruiter of Badru: You have convinced the soulbound construct Badru to contact Zarta Dralneen and consult for her Dark Archive. When you use Prestige Points to purchase make whole as a spellcasting service, Badru himself casts it at CL 12th. This boon may have other uses in future scenarios.
Relic Guardian: Your stewardship of historical treasures inspires you to act quickly to save such relics from destruction. Once per scenario, when an unattended object within your reach is targeted by an offensive spell, attack, or effect, you can treat that object as though it were in your possession for the purpose of attempting saving throws and resisting sunder attempts. If an opponent succeeds at a combat maneuver check to sunder an object in your possession, you can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to force the creature to reroll the attack with a –5 penalty.

If nobody else volunteers (and if he gets invisibility), Koryo heads up stealthily. He moves as if he was visible, partly out of habit and partly in case they've got anyone that can see invisible things.

Imperium Initiate []: Your study of Jistkan ruins and golems has taught you a few tricks for handling the supernatural soldiers of ancient Garund. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before casting a spell to make it especially effective against constructs and divs. Those creatures take a -2 penalty on all saving throws made against the spell for 1 round. Alternatively, you can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet as a free action to treat hardness and damage reduction of all constructs and divs as 5 lower against your attacks for 1 round.
* Delvehaven Star []: You were an integral part of the Pathfinder Society’s first sanctioned expeditions in Cheliax in many years. In recognition of your role in this important milestone, the Society has imprinted your wayfinder with the Delvehaven Star—named in honor of a famous Chelish Pathfinder lodge. You gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (history, local, and nobility) checks associated with Cheliax, and you gain a +1 bonus to your initiative while adventuring in Cheliax. Furthermore, you can check the box that precedes this boon when spending Prestige Points for spellcasting services to reduce the cost by 2 (minimum 0).
* Eye for Traitors (Dark Archive faction) []: You gain a permanent +2 bonus on Sense Motive checks to tell if someone is lying and on Will saves against illusions. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet in order to re-roll a failed saving throw against an illusion effect and take the second result.
Precious Vindication []: At last! You have uncovered vital data that proves that you made the right choice under pressure, even if the common perception was that you had failed. Select one Pathfinder Society Scenario for which you earned less than the maximum number of Prestige Points. Increase the Prestige Points and Fame earned by 1 (or 0.5 if using the slow advancement track), up to the scenario’s maximum. Record the additional Prestige Points on that character’s next Chronicle sheet as well as below.
* Elemental Conquest: [] You have fought and fraternized with the guardians of Aucturn’s Tear, and although you triumphed, it is clear that this is not the last time you’ll clash with elemental forces. Choose one of the benefits below, and cross the other two off your Chronicle sheet. You may select an option only so long as you successfully completed at least one encounter in a region with that elemental affinity during this adventure.
Fire: You gain a +1 insight bonus on saving throws against spells, spell-like abilities, and effects of creatures with the fire subtype and against spells with the fire descriptor.
While adventuring on the Plane of Fire, you instead gain a +1 insight bonus on all saving throws.
As a swift action, you can check the box that precedes this boon in order to grant one weapon you wield the flaming weapon special ability for 1 minute; if the weapon already has the flaming special ability, it instead gains flaming burst for 1 minute.
Ranginori’s Debt: [][] You helped recover the Untouchable Opal, within which Ranginori, Elemental Lord of Air, is trapped. While imprisoned, his power is limited. Nonetheless, he has granted you an initial gift with the promise of greater rewards should the Society free him. You can activate this boon as a standard action by checking one of the boxes that precedes it, gaining one of the benefits based on your level when you activate the boon. For any spell-like ability, use your character level as your caster level.
Any Level: You can recall a spell slot or prepared spell you already cast that day. The spell is prepared again or the spell slot is available for use again, as if it had not been used already.
Levels 1–4: You cast cat’s grace, cure moderate wounds, lesser restoration, or shocking grasp as a spell-like ability.
Levels 5–8: Add cure serious wounds, fly, and lightning bolt to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 9–11: Add call lightning storm and cure critical wounds to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 12+: Add heal and whirlwind to the list of spell-like abilities you can use, though both of these spell-like abilities requires you to check both boxes.
Tome of First Contact [X][][][][]: You have recovered a strange tome that details utterly bizarre creatures rarely seen on your world. After rolling a Knowledge check to identify an aberration, ooze, or outsider (or a creature that is not native to Golarion) and learning the results, you can check one or more boxes that precede this boon. For each box you check, you can learn one additional piece of information, as if your Knowledge check result had been 5 higher. If you did not succeed at the Knowledge check in the first place, you can check one box to succeed at the Knowledge check to learn one piece of information plus the creature’s name, type, and subtypes.
Once you check the last box, you’ve expended the tome’s greatest secrets. It remains a curious keepsake.
Ectoplasmic Enhancement []: You recovered a sample of concentrated ectoplasm from the Gloomspires. You may activate this ectoplasm as a swift action to treat all of your natural attacks, unarmed strikes, and weapon attacks as if they had the ghost touch property for 1 round. If you have at least one level in the spiritualist class, the ghost touch property persists for 3 rounds and also affects her phantom’s natural attacks. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.
Aid of the Overwatched [][]: You returned Ralzeros the Overwatched to Golarion and convinced him to lend his aid to the Dark Archive. In thanks for your help, Ralzeros convinces his familiar Daosvaria to send a piece of her essence and knowledge to assist you.
Instead of taking Daosvaria as a familiar, you can call her forth to share fragments of Ralzeros’s knowledge. Check a box that precedes this boon to roll a single Knowledge check using a bonus of 5 plus your character level in place of your typical bonus. If your own bonus is higher, you may instead gain a +2 bonus on the Knowledge check.
If you use this benefit, cross the option to take Daosvaria as a familiar off your Chronicle sheet.
Blessing of Nivi [X][X][][]: Your efforts on behalf of Kalsgard’s gnome population have drawn the attention, and blessing of the gnome goddess Nivi Rhombodazzle. This boon has different effects depending on your race. If you are a non-gnome, you may check a box next to this boon to cast blur as a swift action, with a caster level equal to your total character level. Once you have checked all the boxes next to this boon, you gain Gnome as a bonus language; this has no further effect for characters who already speak Gnome.
Gnomes of the North [][][]: You have befriended the gnomes of Kalsgard and found a home away from home at the Hall of Seven Wagers. You can check a box next to this boon to use either Bluff, Knowledge (local), or Sleight of Hand to make your Day Job check at the end of an adventure, doubling the amount of gold normally received for the result of your check. If you already have the ability to use one of these skills to make a Day Job check, checking a box instead grants you a +2 bonus on such a check, in addition to doubling the gold received as normal. This boon’s doubling effect does not stack with other benefits that would multiply the result of your Day Job check.)
Ghalcor’s Spellcraft: Following the battle at Ghalcor’s Tower, you were able to study the dead cleric’s notes and discovered that he also developed a handful of powerful spells. Now the Pathfinder Society and the Mendevian Crusade can wield these in the fight against the Worldwound. So long as you possess this boon, all of your Pathfinder Society Organized Play characters have access to the following spells from Pathfinder Player Companion: Demon Hunter’s Handbook as if they appeared on the Additional Resources page: burst with light, detect demon, and righteous blood.
Mendevian Commendation: You have received a medal for your service to Mendev and the Fifth Crusade. For every Mendevian Commendation you have, you gain a cumulative +1 bonus on Charisma-based skill and ability checks made to influence crusaders of Mendev (maximum +3).
Elixir of Renewal: [][] You gain a special elixir that you can consume as if it were a potion in order to restore 2d8+5 hit points as well as 1d4 points of one type of ability damage. You can use the potion only once, even if the user is under the effects of alchemical allocation (Pathfnder RPG Advanced Player’s Guide 201) or a similar effect that would allow one to benefit from a potion multiple times. Check the box that precedes this boon when you use this elixir.
[STRIKE]Righteous Redemption: [X] Thanks to your work bringing a lost hero’s legacy to light, key leaders in the crusader nation of Lastwall have begun seeing Pathfnders less as ruffians and more as potential allies. Between adventures or while in Lastwall, you can check the box that precedes this boon to requisition one of the following: a satchel containing six flasks of holy water and an oil of bless weapon; two scrolls of lesser restoration; a combat-trained warhorse (heavy or light) with a military saddle, bit, bridle, and week of feed; a masterwork longsword; or a masterwork lance. This gear is yours to do with as you please, but it has an effective resale value of 0 gp.[/STRIKE]
Worthy Foe: [][][] Lastwall is the Inner Sea’s bulwark against countless evils, and you have proven yourself against a local villain. As a swift action, you can check a box that precedes this boon to gain one of two benefits against enemies that correspond to the threat you defeated. First, you can choose to gain a +2 bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls against such creatures, as well as a +2 dodge bonus to AC against such creatures’ attacks.
Alternatively, you can gain a +2 bonus on caster level checks to overcome those creatures’ spell resistance, increase the save DC of your spells and abilities against those creatures by 1, and gain a +2 bonus on saving throws against those creatures’ spells and abilities. Either benefit lasts until the beginning of your next turn.
Tusks: You gain the benefits above against magical beasts and humanoids with the orc subtype.
Duskwarden’s Favor: [] Your actions below Kaer Maga have impressed the Duskwardens, and these guides teach you some of their tricks for safely navigating dangerous caverns. You can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to gain the ranger favored terrain ability (+2) in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario. If you already have favored terrain in underground environments, add 2 to the bonuses that you gain in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario.
What Ambush? (Scout Mission): [][] Your experience in Gallowspire has sharpened your senses against
hidden foes. When you would fail a Perception check to act on the surprise round, you can check a box that
precedes this boon to act on the surprise round. You are still considered flat-footed until you take an action.
Alternatively, you can check a box to reroll an initiative check.
Unravel Magic (Spellcaster Mission): [][] You have friends who know their way around magic. Check the box that precedes this boon as a swift action. A Pathfinder ally briefly enters the fight and casts dispel magic, with a caster level equal to your character level. If your character level is at least 13 when you activate this boon, your ally can cast greater dispel magic instead.
Timely Delivery (Muscle Mission): [][] No matter where you travel, you can count on one of your Pathfinder allies to keep you ready. You can spend 1 minute and 2 PP and check the box that precedes this boon to gain an item costing 750 gp or less. Unlike a normal purchase made with PP, you do not need to be anywhere near a settlement to acquire the item.
Tactical Strike (Guard Mission): [] You can rally your allies to make a coordinated strike. Check the box
that precedes this boon as a swift action and select one opponent. Until the beginning of your next turn, you
and all of your allies deal an additional 1d8 points of damage on all attacks against that opponent. You are
considered to be flanking that opponent if at least two of your allies are threatening that foe, regardless of
your actual positioning.
Restorative Burst (Medic Mission): [] A spark of divine grace from your medic allies protects you. When
you would be reduced to less than 0 hit points, you can check the box that precedes this boon to automatically
trigger a burst of healing around your body. This heals you and all willing allies within 30 feet, as the channel
energy ability of a cleric of your level.
Necromantic Surge: [][][][] You can check a box that precedes this boon to strike foes with the Whispering
Tyrant’s magic, using one of the following spell-like abilities based on your level when you activate this boon.
Use your character level as your caster level, and use your Charisma modifier to determine the spell’s DC.
Levels 5–8: You can use a spell-like ability from the following list: bestow curse, command undead, enervation,
false life, fear, or vampiric touch.
Levels 9–12: Add eyebite, possession (Pathfinder RPG Occult Adventures 181), and waves of fatigue to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Levels 13–16: Add control undead, finger of death, and greater possession (Occult Adventures 181) to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two boxes to use these spells.
Levels 17+: Add energy drain and wail of the banshee to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two
boxes to use these spells.
Echoing Paradox: [] A trace of the magic of the Sanctum of Lost Ages clings to you, and against all odds and reason, a future or past version of you can appear to provide assistance in a time of need. Before you roll an attack roll, a skill check, or a saving throw, a copy of you appears either to flank with you or to grant you a +2 bonus as per the aid another action. If you have an ability that grants a higher bonus on aid another actions, you gain this as a bonus instead; the copy also shares all of your teamwork feats. After the attack, skill check, or save is resolved, the copy fades away, and you are shaken until the end of your next turn by the unsettling paradox of being at two places at once.
Aggressive Researcher: [] You have proven your mettle in Absalom’s greatest libraries, and in the course of your research, you uncovered many facts that were not immediately relevant but might one day prove useful. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a Knowledge (arcana, history, or planes) check in order to treat your final check result as if it were 25, even if you are not trained in the skill. Alternatively, you may instead gain a +5 bonus on the check.
Acquainted with Aslynn: The entity known as Aslynn knows who you are and what you did in the Forae Logos. Whether this is to your advantage or detriment is as yet unknown.
Impossible Feat: [] The extraordinary actions possible within a dream might not be possible while awake, but you nonetheless dream of performing a similarly spectacular deed. You may cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a skill check, saving throw, or attack roll to add 1d6 to the result of your check. If you roll a 6, roll the six-sided die again and combine the results. You may repeat this process up to twice for a maximum additional bonus of +18.
Charted Pillars: You can borrow a copy of Venture-Captain Norden Balentiir’s map of the Pillars of the Sun while traveling to that region. The map is imperfect, but it provides enough sufficient information about safe routes through the mountains that you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (geography) and Survival checks made when navigating the area.
Recruiter of Badru: You have convinced the soulbound construct Badru to contact Zarta Dralneen and consult for her Dark Archive. When you use Prestige Points to purchase make whole as a spellcasting service, Badru himself casts it at CL 12th. This boon may have other uses in future scenarios.
Relic Guardian: Your stewardship of historical treasures inspires you to act quickly to save such relics from destruction. Once per scenario, when an unattended object within your reach is targeted by an offensive spell, attack, or effect, you can treat that object as though it were in your possession for the purpose of attempting saving throws and resisting sunder attempts. If an opponent succeeds at a combat maneuver check to sunder an object in your possession, you can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to force the creature to reroll the attack with a –5 penalty.
* Boon Grants Permanent Bonus.
peering through the windows the left front room appears to be a dining room. One of its occupants turns its head toward you. The giant mastiff sniffs. The window prevents the dog knowing you are there, but he knows something is around.
Peering through the windows the right room appears to be a sitting room. Several pirates are sitting around, playing cards and drinking.

Figuring that was about as much as he was getting on one spell, Koryo heads back to the others and sketches what he saw of the layout on one page of his journal.
"Four rooms, plus the entry hall" he says, laying the journal down for everyone else to view.
"Back right is a bedroom. I didn't see anyone in there, and the door was closed. Might be a decent entry; I've got the equipment to break out the window fairly quietly."
"Back left has slaves. Most of them were chained together, but I can't be sure what the situation is there. The door's closed, so maybe, but if there are collaborators they might shout."
"The front hall has the stairs up. I don't know what's past there. Both of the rooms in front open up here, and their doors are open, so they'll probably hear anything going on here."
"Front right has pirates playing cards. I bet they're supposed to be guarding the place."
"Front left has some dogs. Pretty sure one of them smelled me or something, from the way it was looking around. Good news is that I didn't see any people in the room, so we might be able to just shut the door and keep the dogs out of the fight."
|
As Koryo is describing, Spica is trying to turn that description into a map.
I still got that Knock scroll to free the slaves - and I agree, the bedroom does seem to be a good entry point. Although there is no need to remove a window. I could use the Dimension Door spell to get us inside. And yes, blocking the dogs off would be nice.
She cringed in fear. It was obvious she was a bit nervous about ferocious dogs
This officer’s bedroom is in disarray and smells of sweat and stale booze. The room is locked.

As he climbs, rather skillfully, into the bedroom with the others through the window, Sorithar grumbles quietly.
"I would have suggested we draw them all into the entry hall and drop a foeblast and some other nasty spells on top of them using a bottleneck, but I guess this works too...
I can secure any doors necessary, just point them out."
Can locate glyphs of warding, symbol spells, and similar magical spell traps that use writing as if he were a rogue. He can use Perception or Knowledge (arcana) to notice such traps, and can use Disable Device or Spellcraft to disable these types of traps.

He is garbed in finely wrought, though slightly worn, dark explorer's garb with plenty of pockets and pouches, some of which seem quite full. A pair of dagger hilts stick out of each of his well tailored leather boots and a smaller crossbow hangs from a hook at his waist, across from a pouch of bolts. In his hands is a well worn, black basalt staff that seems almost alive, twisting into random irregular geometric patterns. On several of his fingers are gleaming rings of gold, bronze and other hues. A finely wrought, slim silvery headband sits upon his brow.
Short, tapered wands are tucked into his waist sash and one small gemstone hovers about his head, spinning around it at a distance of roughly a foot.

Ally of the Green [][][]: You have communed with the fugitive leshys of Anglemire and demonstrated your respect for their humble treasures. As a parting gift, the leshy Harvest Stripe gave you three gourd seeds imbued with some of the leshys' primal magic. As a standard action, you can check one of the boxes that precede this boon and consume one of these seeds as if it were a goodberry, though the seed heals 1d4+1 points of damage.

Mendevian Commendation: You have received a medal for your service to Mendev and the Fifth Crusade. For every Mendevian Commendation you have, you gain a cumulative +1 bonus on Charisma-based skill and ability checks made to influence crusaders of Mendev (maximum +3).
Elixir of Renewal: [][] You gain a special elixir that you can consume as if it were a potion in order to restore 2d8+5 hit points as well as 1d4 points of one type of ability damage. You can use the potion only once, even if the user is under the effects of alchemical allocation (Pathfnder RPG Advanced Player’s Guide 201) or a similar effect that would allow one to benefit from a potion multiple times. Check the box that precedes this boon when you use this elixir.
[STRIKE]Righteous Redemption: [X] Thanks to your work bringing a lost hero’s legacy to light, key leaders in the crusader nation of Lastwall have begun seeing Pathfnders less as ruffians and more as potential allies. Between adventures or while in Lastwall, you can check the box that precedes this boon to requisition one of the following: a satchel containing six flasks of holy water and an oil of bless weapon; two scrolls of lesser restoration; a combat-trained warhorse (heavy or light) with a military saddle, bit, bridle, and week of feed; a masterwork longsword; or a masterwork lance. This gear is yours to do with as you please, but it has an effective resale value of 0 gp.[/STRIKE]
Worthy Foe: [][][] Lastwall is the Inner Sea’s bulwark against countless evils, and you have proven yourself against a local villain. As a swift action, you can check a box that precedes this boon to gain one of two benefits against enemies that correspond to the threat you defeated. First, you can choose to gain a +2 bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls against such creatures, as well as a +2 dodge bonus to AC against such creatures’ attacks.
Alternatively, you can gain a +2 bonus on caster level checks to overcome those creatures’ spell resistance, increase the save DC of your spells and abilities against those creatures by 1, and gain a +2 bonus on saving throws against those creatures’ spells and abilities. Either benefit lasts until the beginning of your next turn.
Tusks: You gain the benefits above against magical beasts and humanoids with the orc subtype.
Duskwarden’s Favor: [] Your actions below Kaer Maga have impressed the Duskwardens, and these guides teach you some of their tricks for safely navigating dangerous caverns. You can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to gain the ranger favored terrain ability (+2) in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario. If you already have favored terrain in underground environments, add 2 to the bonuses that you gain in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario.
What Ambush? (Scout Mission): [][] Your experience in Gallowspire has sharpened your senses against
hidden foes. When you would fail a Perception check to act on the surprise round, you can check a box that
precedes this boon to act on the surprise round. You are still considered flat-footed until you take an action.
Alternatively, you can check a box to reroll an initiative check.
Unravel Magic (Spellcaster Mission): [][] You have friends who know their way around magic. Check the box that precedes this boon as a swift action. A Pathfinder ally briefly enters the fight and casts dispel magic, with a caster level equal to your character level. If your character level is at least 13 when you activate this boon, your ally can cast greater dispel magic instead.
Timely Delivery (Muscle Mission): [][] No matter where you travel, you can count on one of your Pathfinder allies to keep you ready. You can spend 1 minute and 2 PP and check the box that precedes this boon to gain an item costing 750 gp or less. Unlike a normal purchase made with PP, you do not need to be anywhere near a settlement to acquire the item.
Tactical Strike (Guard Mission): [] You can rally your allies to make a coordinated strike. Check the box
that precedes this boon as a swift action and select one opponent. Until the beginning of your next turn, you
and all of your allies deal an additional 1d8 points of damage on all attacks against that opponent. You are
considered to be flanking that opponent if at least two of your allies are threatening that foe, regardless of
your actual positioning.
Restorative Burst (Medic Mission): [] A spark of divine grace from your medic allies protects you. When
you would be reduced to less than 0 hit points, you can check the box that precedes this boon to automatically
trigger a burst of healing around your body. This heals you and all willing allies within 30 feet, as the channel
energy ability of a cleric of your level.
Necromantic Surge: [][][][] You can check a box that precedes this boon to strike foes with the Whispering
Tyrant’s magic, using one of the following spell-like abilities based on your level when you activate this boon.
Use your character level as your caster level, and use your Charisma modifier to determine the spell’s DC.
Levels 5–8: You can use a spell-like ability from the following list: bestow curse, command undead, enervation,
false life, fear, or vampiric touch.
Levels 9–12: Add eyebite, possession (Pathfinder RPG Occult Adventures 181), and waves of fatigue to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Levels 13–16: Add control undead, finger of death, and greater possession (Occult Adventures 181) to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two boxes to use these spells.
Levels 17+: Add energy drain and wail of the banshee to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two
boxes to use these spells.
Echoing Paradox: [] A trace of the magic of the Sanctum of Lost Ages clings to you, and against all odds and reason, a future or past version of you can appear to provide assistance in a time of need. Before you roll an attack roll, a skill check, or a saving throw, a copy of you appears either to flank with you or to grant you a +2 bonus as per the aid another action. If you have an ability that grants a higher bonus on aid another actions, you gain this as a bonus instead; the copy also shares all of your teamwork feats. After the attack, skill check, or save is resolved, the copy fades away, and you are shaken until the end of your next turn by the unsettling paradox of being at two places at once.
Aggressive Researcher: [] You have proven your mettle in Absalom’s greatest libraries, and in the course of your research, you uncovered many facts that were not immediately relevant but might one day prove useful. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a Knowledge (arcana, history, or planes) check in order to treat your final check result as if it were 25, even if you are not trained in the skill. Alternatively, you may instead gain a +5 bonus on the check.
Acquainted with Aslynn: The entity known as Aslynn knows who you are and what you did in the Forae Logos. Whether this is to your advantage or detriment is as yet unknown.
Impossible Feat: [] The extraordinary actions possible within a dream might not be possible while awake, but you nonetheless dream of performing a similarly spectacular deed. You may cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a skill check, saving throw, or attack roll to add 1d6 to the result of your check. If you roll a 6, roll the six-sided die again and combine the results. You may repeat this process up to twice for a maximum additional bonus of +18.
Charted Pillars: You can borrow a copy of Venture-Captain Norden Balentiir’s map of the Pillars of the Sun while traveling to that region. The map is imperfect, but it provides enough sufficient information about safe routes through the mountains that you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (geography) and Survival checks made when navigating the area.
Recruiter of Badru: You have convinced the soulbound construct Badru to contact Zarta Dralneen and consult for her Dark Archive. When you use Prestige Points to purchase make whole as a spellcasting service, Badru himself casts it at CL 12th. This boon may have other uses in future scenarios.
Relic Guardian: Your stewardship of historical treasures inspires you to act quickly to save such relics from destruction. Once per scenario, when an unattended object within your reach is targeted by an offensive spell, attack, or effect, you can treat that object as though it were in your possession for the purpose of attempting saving throws and resisting sunder attempts. If an opponent succeeds at a combat maneuver check to sunder an object in your possession, you can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to force the creature to reroll the attack with a –5 penalty.
* Boon Grants Permanent Bonus.
Hey, how did we get in here, must be some secret passage? We were in there.
Through a window, but you are close.
There are no sounds coming through the door.
The door opens into an interior hall. Directly across the hall is the noise from pirates playing cards.
As he climbs, rather skillfully, into the bedroom with the others through the window, Sorithar grumbles quietly.
"I would have suggested we draw them all into the entry hall and drop a foeblast and some other nasty spells on top of them using a bottleneck, but I guess this works too...
It isn't too late for that. >:)
|
|
Sorithar regards Mykel and whispers.
"I cannot cast that divine supplication, but if we draw these pirates and canines into the foyer and create a bottleneck, I could send a foeblast or other devastating spell their way to decimate their numbers.
This will, of course, create some noise...
Otherwise, mayhap it would be wise to try and investigate the other rooms first..?"
Can locate glyphs of warding, symbol spells, and similar magical spell traps that use writing as if he were a rogue. He can use Perception or Knowledge (arcana) to notice such traps, and can use Disable Device or Spellcraft to disable these types of traps.

He is garbed in finely wrought, though slightly worn, dark explorer's garb with plenty of pockets and pouches, some of which seem quite full. A pair of dagger hilts stick out of each of his well tailored leather boots and a smaller crossbow hangs from a hook at his waist, across from a pouch of bolts. In his hands is a well worn, black basalt staff that seems almost alive, twisting into random irregular geometric patterns. On several of his fingers are gleaming rings of gold, bronze and other hues. A finely wrought, slim silvery headband sits upon his brow.
Short, tapered wands are tucked into his waist sash and one small gemstone hovers about his head, spinning around it at a distance of roughly a foot.

Within Chronicle: letter of introduction
* Timelost Chronicler: You have journeyed through the ancient serpentfolk city of Sessegishoss and witnessed the fall of the Starstone, granting you a remarkable perspective of Golarion’s history. You gain a permanent +1 bonus on Knowledge (history) checks from your first-hand knowledge. Once per scenario you may call on the nascent power granted by your exposure to the falling Starstone to find inner greatness, granting you a +1 morale bonus to a single d20 roll. You must declare your use of this power before the roll is made.
Gloomspire Explorer []: Despite having studied only a small portion of Sevenfingers’s tomb, you are now one of the Society’s foremost authorities on the enigmatic Gloomspires. While adventuring in the Gloomspires, you receive a +2 bonus on all Perception checks made to find hidden objects such as traps, treasure, and secret doors. If you check the box included with this boon, you gain the benefits of this boon for the duration of one scenario set anywhere other than the Gloomspires.
Debt of Cyphers: You rescued ex-Pathfinder and Cyphergate scholar Hirako Gurukaza from the hands of pirate kidnappers. In thanks, he has spread your name among the Order of the Cyphers. When in Riddleport, you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (arcana) and Linguistics checks when you consult Gurukaza before making the check. In addition, the Order's connection to some of Riddleport's more powerful criminal elements also provides you a future benefit in the form of a +2 bonus on Diplomacy checks made in the city to gather information.
* Riddleport Respect: Word of your defeat of pirate captain Alejia Netrav has spread throughout Riddleport, and you've earned the respect of the criminals and thugs that call the city home. When you flex your muscle, folks in the City of Cyphers pay attention. You receive a +2 bonus on Intimidate checks made in Riddleport as a result.
* You Rescued the Minotaur Prince: You rescued Nuar Spiritskin, the Minotaur Prince of Absalom and he is quite grateful that you have done so. Though he is absolutely unclear how he got into the Tangle in the first place, he pays this no mind and spreads the tale of your daring-do to his many contacts throughout the city. You gain a permanent +1 circumstance bonus to any Intelligence or Charisma-based checks made while in Absalom.
New Recruit (J. Dacilane) []: Your team of Pathfinders sponsored J. to join the Pathfinder Society. In exchange, she is eager to assist you on one of your future missions. You can direct J. to cast a spell from the spiritualist list (Pathfinder RPG Occult Adventures 76) as a standard action. The spell’s level can be up to one third of your character level (minimum 0). J.’s caster level is equal to your character level – 3 (minimum 2), and her Wisdom score is 17. J. is a noncombatant, and she is considered to be in your square for the purpose of determining the origin of her spell. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle Sheet.
Ally of the Green [][][]: You have communed with the fugitive leshys of Anglemire and demonstrated your respect for their humble treasures. As a parting gift, the leshy Harvest Stripe gave you three gourd seeds imbued with some of the leshys' primal magic. As a standard action, you can check one of the boxes that precede this boon and consume one of these seeds as if it were a goodberry, though the seed heals 1d4+1 points of damage. Alternatively, you can feed a seed to an adjacent plant creature to grant it 5 temporary hit points and the benefits of divine favour (CL 6th) for 1 minute. When you check the last box, cross the entire boon off your Chronicle sheet.
* Archaeological Expert []: The Pathfinder Society has a strong tradition of archaeological exploration, and you have proven yourself a capable excavator and historian. You gain a +1 bonus to Appraise and Knowledge (history) checks to identify the cultural significance of art and objects. If you would fulfill the primary success conditions of an adventure but fail its secondary success conditions, you can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet and attempt an Apprise, Knowledge (history), or Profession (archaeologist) check (DC = 10 + 2*character level). If you succeed, you make a small but significant archaeological discovery that allows you, and only you, to earn the Prestige Point reward anyway. You cannot Take 10 on this check.
Imperium Initiate []: Your study of Jistkan ruins and golems has taught you a few tricks for handling the supernatural soldiers of ancient Garund. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before casting a spell to make it especially effective against constructs and divs. Those creatures take a -2 penalty on all saving throws made against the spell for 1 round. Alternatively, you can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet as a free action to treat hardness and damage reduction of all constructs and divs as 5 lower against your attacks for 1 round.
* Delvehaven Star []: You were an integral part of the Pathfinder Society’s first sanctioned expeditions in Cheliax in many years. In recognition of your role in this important milestone, the Society has imprinted your wayfinder with the Delvehaven Star—named in honor of a famous Chelish Pathfinder lodge. You gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (history, local, and nobility) checks associated with Cheliax, and you gain a +1 bonus to your initiative while adventuring in Cheliax. Furthermore, you can check the box that precedes this boon when spending Prestige Points for spellcasting services to reduce the cost by 2 (minimum 0).
* Eye for Traitors (Dark Archive faction) []: You gain a permanent +2 bonus on Sense Motive checks to tell if someone is lying and on Will saves against illusions. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet in order to re-roll a failed saving throw against an illusion effect and take the second result.
Precious Vindication []: At last! You have uncovered vital data that proves that you made the right choice under pressure, even if the common perception was that you had failed. Select one Pathfinder Society Scenario for which you earned less than the maximum number of Prestige Points. Increase the Prestige Points and Fame earned by 1 (or 0.5 if using the slow advancement track), up to the scenario’s maximum. Record the additional Prestige Points on that character’s next Chronicle sheet as well as below.
* Elemental Conquest: [] You have fought and fraternized with the guardians of Aucturn’s Tear, and although you triumphed, it is clear that this is not the last time you’ll clash with elemental forces. Choose one of the benefits below, and cross the other two off your Chronicle sheet. You may select an option only so long as you successfully completed at least one encounter in a region with that elemental affinity during this adventure.
Fire: You gain a +1 insight bonus on saving throws against spells, spell-like abilities, and effects of creatures with the fire subtype and against spells with the fire descriptor.
While adventuring on the Plane of Fire, you instead gain a +1 insight bonus on all saving throws.
As a swift action, you can check the box that precedes this boon in order to grant one weapon you wield the flaming weapon special ability for 1 minute; if the weapon already has the flaming special ability, it instead gains flaming burst for 1 minute.
Ranginori’s Debt: [][] You helped recover the Untouchable Opal, within which Ranginori, Elemental Lord of Air, is trapped. While imprisoned, his power is limited. Nonetheless, he has granted you an initial gift with the promise of greater rewards should the Society free him. You can activate this boon as a standard action by checking one of the boxes that precedes it, gaining one of the benefits based on your level when you activate the boon. For any spell-like ability, use your character level as your caster level.
Any Level: You can recall a spell slot or prepared spell you already cast that day. The spell is prepared again or the spell slot is available for use again, as if it had not been used already.
Levels 1–4: You cast cat’s grace, cure moderate wounds, lesser restoration, or shocking grasp as a spell-like ability.
Levels 5–8: Add cure serious wounds, fly, and lightning bolt to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 9–11: Add call lightning storm and cure critical wounds to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 12+: Add heal and whirlwind to the list of spell-like abilities you can use, though both of these spell-like abilities requires you to check both boxes.
Tome of First Contact [X][][][][]: You have recovered a strange tome that details utterly bizarre creatures rarely seen on your world. After rolling a Knowledge check to identify an aberration, ooze, or outsider (or a creature that is not native to Golarion) and learning the results, you can check one or more boxes that precede this boon. For each box you check, you can learn one additional piece of information, as if your Knowledge check result had been 5 higher. If you did not succeed at the Knowledge check in the first place, you can check one box to succeed at the Knowledge check to learn one piece of information plus the creature’s name, type, and subtypes.
Once you check the last box, you’ve expended the tome’s greatest secrets. It remains a curious keepsake.
Ectoplasmic Enhancement []: You recovered a sample of concentrated ectoplasm from the Gloomspires. You may activate this ectoplasm as a swift action to treat all of your natural attacks, unarmed strikes, and weapon attacks as if they had the ghost touch property for 1 round. If you have at least one level in the spiritualist class, the ghost touch property persists for 3 rounds and also affects her phantom’s natural attacks. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.
Aid of the Overwatched [][]: You returned Ralzeros the Overwatched to Golarion and convinced him to lend his aid to the Dark Archive. In thanks for your help, Ralzeros convinces his familiar Daosvaria to send a piece of her essence and knowledge to assist you.
Instead of taking Daosvaria as a familiar, you can call her forth to share fragments of Ralzeros’s knowledge. Check a box that precedes this boon to roll a single Knowledge check using a bonus of 5 plus your character level in place of your typical bonus. If your own bonus is higher, you may instead gain a +2 bonus on the Knowledge check.
If you use this benefit, cross the option to take Daosvaria as a familiar off your Chronicle sheet.
Blessing of Nivi [X][X][][]: Your efforts on behalf of Kalsgard’s gnome population have drawn the attention, and blessing of the gnome goddess Nivi Rhombodazzle. This boon has different effects depending on your race. If you are a non-gnome, you may check a box next to this boon to cast blur as a swift action, with a caster level equal to your total character level. Once you have checked all the boxes next to this boon, you gain Gnome as a bonus language; this has no further effect for characters who already speak Gnome.
Gnomes of the North [][][]: You have befriended the gnomes of Kalsgard and found a home away from home at the Hall of Seven Wagers. You can check a box next to this boon to use either Bluff, Knowledge (local), or Sleight of Hand to make your Day Job check at the end of an adventure, doubling the amount of gold normally received for the result of your check. If you already have the ability to use one of these skills to make a Day Job check, checking a box instead grants you a +2 bonus on such a check, in addition to doubling the gold received as normal. This boon’s doubling effect does not stack with other benefits that would multiply the result of your Day Job check.)
Ghalcor’s Spellcraft: Following the battle at Ghalcor’s Tower, you were able to study the dead cleric’s notes and discovered that he also developed a handful of powerful spells. Now the Pathfinder Society and the Mendevian Crusade can wield these in the fight against the Worldwound. So long as you possess this boon, all of your Pathfinder Society Organized Play characters have access to the following spells from Pathfinder Player Companion: Demon Hunter’s Handbook as if they appeared on the Additional Resources page: burst with light, detect demon, and righteous blood.
Mendevian Commendation: You have received a medal for your service to Mendev and the Fifth Crusade. For every Mendevian Commendation you have, you gain a cumulative +1 bonus on Charisma-based skill and ability checks made to influence crusaders of Mendev (maximum +3).
Elixir of Renewal: [][] You gain a special elixir that you can consume as if it were a potion in order to restore 2d8+5 hit points as well as 1d4 points of one type of ability damage. You can use the potion only once, even if the user is under the effects of alchemical allocation (Pathfnder RPG Advanced Player’s Guide 201) or a similar effect that would allow one to benefit from a potion multiple times. Check the box that precedes this boon when you use this elixir.
[STRIKE]Righteous Redemption: [X] Thanks to your work bringing a lost hero’s legacy to light, key leaders in the crusader nation of Lastwall have begun seeing Pathfnders less as ruffians and more as potential allies. Between adventures or while in Lastwall, you can check the box that precedes this boon to requisition one of the following: a satchel containing six flasks of holy water and an oil of bless weapon; two scrolls of lesser restoration; a combat-trained warhorse (heavy or light) with a military saddle, bit, bridle, and week of feed; a masterwork longsword; or a masterwork lance. This gear is yours to do with as you please, but it has an effective resale value of 0 gp.[/STRIKE]
Worthy Foe: [][][] Lastwall is the Inner Sea’s bulwark against countless evils, and you have proven yourself against a local villain. As a swift action, you can check a box that precedes this boon to gain one of two benefits against enemies that correspond to the threat you defeated. First, you can choose to gain a +2 bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls against such creatures, as well as a +2 dodge bonus to AC against such creatures’ attacks.
Alternatively, you can gain a +2 bonus on caster level checks to overcome those creatures’ spell resistance, increase the save DC of your spells and abilities against those creatures by 1, and gain a +2 bonus on saving throws against those creatures’ spells and abilities.

"Unless you want to go back outside and in the front door, I doubt you'll get everyone into the entry hall" Koryo offers. "The only doors I saw that led there come from the dog room or the pirate room. Maybe clear out the back area, take the dogs down quickly, then bottleneck the pirates as they run in?"

He is garbed in finely wrought, though slightly worn, dark explorer's garb with plenty of pockets and pouches, some of which seem quite full. A pair of dagger hilts stick out of each of his well tailored leather boots and a smaller crossbow hangs from a hook at his waist, across from a pouch of bolts. In his hands is a well worn, black basalt staff that seems almost alive, twisting into random irregular geometric patterns. On several of his fingers are gleaming rings of gold, bronze and other hues. A finely wrought, slim silvery headband sits upon his brow.
Short, tapered wands are tucked into his waist sash and one small gemstone hovers about his head, spinning around it at a distance of roughly a foot.

Within Chronicle: letter of introduction
* Timelost Chronicler: You have journeyed through the ancient serpentfolk city of Sessegishoss and witnessed the fall of the Starstone, granting you a remarkable perspective of Golarion’s history. You gain a permanent +1 bonus on Knowledge (history) checks from your first-hand knowledge. Once per scenario you may call on the nascent power granted by your exposure to the falling Starstone to find inner greatness, granting you a +1 morale bonus to a single d20 roll. You must declare your use of this power before the roll is made.
Gloomspire Explorer []: Despite having studied only a small portion of Sevenfingers’s tomb, you are now one of the Society’s foremost authorities on the enigmatic Gloomspires. While adventuring in the Gloomspires, you receive a +2 bonus on all Perception checks made to find hidden objects such as traps, treasure, and secret doors. If you check the box included with this boon, you gain the benefits of this boon for the duration of one scenario set anywhere other than the Gloomspires.
Debt of Cyphers: You rescued ex-Pathfinder and Cyphergate scholar Hirako Gurukaza from the hands of pirate kidnappers. In thanks, he has spread your name among the Order of the Cyphers. When in Riddleport, you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (arcana) and Linguistics checks when you consult Gurukaza before making the check. In addition, the Order's connection to some of Riddleport's more powerful criminal elements also provides you a future benefit in the form of a +2 bonus on Diplomacy checks made in the city to gather information.
* Riddleport Respect: Word of your defeat of pirate captain Alejia Netrav has spread throughout Riddleport, and you've earned the respect of the criminals and thugs that call the city home. When you flex your muscle, folks in the City of Cyphers pay attention. You receive a +2 bonus on Intimidate checks made in Riddleport as a result.
* You Rescued the Minotaur Prince: You rescued Nuar Spiritskin, the Minotaur Prince of Absalom and he is quite grateful that you have done so. Though he is absolutely unclear how he got into the Tangle in the first place, he pays this no mind and spreads the tale of your daring-do to his many contacts throughout the city. You gain a permanent +1 circumstance bonus to any Intelligence or Charisma-based checks made while in Absalom.
New Recruit (J. Dacilane) []: Your team of Pathfinders sponsored J. to join the Pathfinder Society. In exchange, she is eager to assist you on one of your future missions. You can direct J. to cast a spell from the spiritualist list (Pathfinder RPG Occult Adventures 76) as a standard action. The spell’s level can be up to one third of your character level (minimum 0). J.’s caster level is equal to your character level – 3 (minimum 2), and her Wisdom score is 17. J. is a noncombatant, and she is considered to be in your square for the purpose of determining the origin of her spell. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle Sheet.
Ally of the Green [][][]: You have communed with the fugitive leshys of Anglemire and demonstrated your respect for their humble treasures. As a parting gift, the leshy Harvest Stripe gave you three gourd seeds imbued with some of the leshys' primal magic. As a standard action, you can check one of the boxes that precede this boon and consume one of these seeds as if it were a goodberry, though the seed heals 1d4+1 points of damage. Alternatively, you can feed a seed to an adjacent plant creature to grant it 5 temporary hit points and the benefits of divine favour (CL 6th) for 1 minute. When you check the last box, cross the entire boon off your Chronicle sheet.
* Archaeological Expert []: The Pathfinder Society has a strong tradition of archaeological exploration, and you have proven yourself a capable excavator and historian. You gain a +1 bonus to Appraise and Knowledge (history) checks to identify the cultural significance of art and objects. If you would fulfill the primary success conditions of an adventure but fail its secondary success conditions, you can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet and attempt an Apprise, Knowledge (history), or Profession (archaeologist) check (DC = 10 + 2*character level). If you succeed, you make a small but significant archaeological discovery that allows you, and only you, to earn the Prestige Point reward anyway. You cannot Take 10 on this check.
Imperium Initiate []: Your study of Jistkan ruins and golems has taught you a few tricks for handling the supernatural soldiers of ancient Garund. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before casting a spell to make it especially effective against constructs and divs. Those creatures take a -2 penalty on all saving throws made against the spell for 1 round. Alternatively, you can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet as a free action to treat hardness and damage reduction of all constructs and divs as 5 lower against your attacks for 1 round.
* Delvehaven Star []: You were an integral part of the Pathfinder Society’s first sanctioned expeditions in Cheliax in many years. In recognition of your role in this important milestone, the Society has imprinted your wayfinder with the Delvehaven Star—named in honor of a famous Chelish Pathfinder lodge. You gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (history, local, and nobility) checks associated with Cheliax, and you gain a +1 bonus to your initiative while adventuring in Cheliax. Furthermore, you can check the box that precedes this boon when spending Prestige Points for spellcasting services to reduce the cost by 2 (minimum 0).
* Eye for Traitors (Dark Archive faction) []: You gain a permanent +2 bonus on Sense Motive checks to tell if someone is lying and on Will saves against illusions. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet in order to re-roll a failed saving throw against an illusion effect and take the second result.
Precious Vindication []: At last! You have uncovered vital data that proves that you made the right choice under pressure, even if the common perception was that you had failed. Select one Pathfinder Society Scenario for which you earned less than the maximum number of Prestige Points. Increase the Prestige Points and Fame earned by 1 (or 0.5 if using the slow advancement track), up to the scenario’s maximum. Record the additional Prestige Points on that character’s next Chronicle sheet as well as below.
* Elemental Conquest: [] You have fought and fraternized with the guardians of Aucturn’s Tear, and although you triumphed, it is clear that this is not the last time you’ll clash with elemental forces. Choose one of the benefits below, and cross the other two off your Chronicle sheet. You may select an option only so long as you successfully completed at least one encounter in a region with that elemental affinity during this adventure.
Fire: You gain a +1 insight bonus on saving throws against spells, spell-like abilities, and effects of creatures with the fire subtype and against spells with the fire descriptor.
While adventuring on the Plane of Fire, you instead gain a +1 insight bonus on all saving throws.
As a swift action, you can check the box that precedes this boon in order to grant one weapon you wield the flaming weapon special ability for 1 minute; if the weapon already has the flaming special ability, it instead gains flaming burst for 1 minute.
Ranginori’s Debt: [][] You helped recover the Untouchable Opal, within which Ranginori, Elemental Lord of Air, is trapped. While imprisoned, his power is limited. Nonetheless, he has granted you an initial gift with the promise of greater rewards should the Society free him. You can activate this boon as a standard action by checking one of the boxes that precedes it, gaining one of the benefits based on your level when you activate the boon. For any spell-like ability, use your character level as your caster level.
Any Level: You can recall a spell slot or prepared spell you already cast that day. The spell is prepared again or the spell slot is available for use again, as if it had not been used already.
Levels 1–4: You cast cat’s grace, cure moderate wounds, lesser restoration, or shocking grasp as a spell-like ability.
Levels 5–8: Add cure serious wounds, fly, and lightning bolt to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 9–11: Add call lightning storm and cure critical wounds to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 12+: Add heal and whirlwind to the list of spell-like abilities you can use, though both of these spell-like abilities requires you to check both boxes.
Tome of First Contact [X][][][][]: You have recovered a strange tome that details utterly bizarre creatures rarely seen on your world. After rolling a Knowledge check to identify an aberration, ooze, or outsider (or a creature that is not native to Golarion) and learning the results, you can check one or more boxes that precede this boon. For each box you check, you can learn one additional piece of information, as if your Knowledge check result had been 5 higher. If you did not succeed at the Knowledge check in the first place, you can check one box to succeed at the Knowledge check to learn one piece of information plus the creature’s name, type, and subtypes.
Once you check the last box, you’ve expended the tome’s greatest secrets. It remains a curious keepsake.
Ectoplasmic Enhancement []: You recovered a sample of concentrated ectoplasm from the Gloomspires. You may activate this ectoplasm as a swift action to treat all of your natural attacks, unarmed strikes, and weapon attacks as if they had the ghost touch property for 1 round. If you have at least one level in the spiritualist class, the ghost touch property persists for 3 rounds and also affects her phantom’s natural attacks. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.
Aid of the Overwatched [][]: You returned Ralzeros the Overwatched to Golarion and convinced him to lend his aid to the Dark Archive. In thanks for your help, Ralzeros convinces his familiar Daosvaria to send a piece of her essence and knowledge to assist you.
Instead of taking Daosvaria as a familiar, you can call her forth to share fragments of Ralzeros’s knowledge. Check a box that precedes this boon to roll a single Knowledge check using a bonus of 5 plus your character level in place of your typical bonus. If your own bonus is higher, you may instead gain a +2 bonus on the Knowledge check.
If you use this benefit, cross the option to take Daosvaria as a familiar off your Chronicle sheet.
Blessing of Nivi [X][X][][]: Your efforts on behalf of Kalsgard’s gnome population have drawn the attention, and blessing of the gnome goddess Nivi Rhombodazzle. This boon has different effects depending on your race. If you are a non-gnome, you may check a box next to this boon to cast blur as a swift action, with a caster level equal to your total character level. Once you have checked all the boxes next to this boon, you gain Gnome as a bonus language; this has no further effect for characters who already speak Gnome.
Gnomes of the North [][][]: You have befriended the gnomes of Kalsgard and found a home away from home at the Hall of Seven Wagers. You can check a box next to this boon to use either Bluff, Knowledge (local), or Sleight of Hand to make your Day Job check at the end of an adventure, doubling the amount of gold normally received for the result of your check. If you already have the ability to use one of these skills to make a Day Job check, checking a box instead grants you a +2 bonus on such a check, in addition to doubling the gold received as normal. This boon’s doubling effect does not stack with other benefits that would multiply the result of your Day Job check.)
Ghalcor’s Spellcraft: Following the battle at Ghalcor’s Tower, you were able to study the dead cleric’s notes and discovered that he also developed a handful of powerful spells. Now the Pathfinder Society and the Mendevian Crusade can wield these in the fight against the Worldwound. So long as you possess this boon, all of your Pathfinder Society Organized Play characters have access to the following spells from Pathfinder Player Companion: Demon Hunter’s Handbook as if they appeared on the Additional Resources page: burst with light, detect demon, and righteous blood.
Mendevian Commendation: You have received a medal for your service to Mendev and the Fifth Crusade. For every Mendevian Commendation you have, you gain a cumulative +1 bonus on Charisma-based skill and ability checks made to influence crusaders of Mendev (maximum +3).
Elixir of Renewal: [][] You gain a special elixir that you can consume as if it were a potion in order to restore 2d8+5 hit points as well as 1d4 points of one type of ability damage. You can use the potion only once, even if the user is under the effects of alchemical allocation (Pathfnder RPG Advanced Player’s Guide 201) or a similar effect that would allow one to benefit from a potion multiple times. Check the box that precedes this boon when you use this elixir.
[STRIKE]Righteous Redemption: [X] Thanks to your work bringing a lost hero’s legacy to light, key leaders in the crusader nation of Lastwall have begun seeing Pathfnders less as ruffians and more as potential allies. Between adventures or while in Lastwall, you can check the box that precedes this boon to requisition one of the following: a satchel containing six flasks of holy water and an oil of bless weapon; two scrolls of lesser restoration; a combat-trained warhorse (heavy or light) with a military saddle, bit, bridle, and week of feed; a masterwork longsword; or a masterwork lance. This gear is yours to do with as you please, but it has an effective resale value of 0 gp.[/STRIKE]
Worthy Foe: [][][] Lastwall is the Inner Sea’s bulwark against countless evils, and you have proven yourself against a local villain. As a swift action, you can check a box that precedes this boon to gain one of two benefits against enemies that correspond to the threat you defeated. First, you can choose to gain a +2 bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls against such creatures, as well as a +2 dodge bonus to AC against such creatures’ attacks.
Alternatively, you can gain a +2 bonus on caster level checks to overcome those creatures’ spell resistance, increase the save DC of your spells and abilities against those creatures by 1, and gain a +2 bonus on saving throws against those creatures’ spells and abilities. Either benefit lasts until the beginning of your next turn.
Tusks: You gain the benefits above against magical beasts and humanoids with the orc subtype.
Duskwarden’s Favor: [] Your actions below Kaer Maga have impressed the Duskwardens, and these guides teach you some of their tricks for safely navigating dangerous caverns. You can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to gain the ranger favored terrain ability (+2) in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario. If you already have favored terrain in underground environments, add 2 to the bonuses that you gain in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario.
What Ambush? (Scout Mission): [][] Your experience in Gallowspire has sharpened your senses against
hidden foes. When you would fail a Perception check to act on the surprise round, you can check a box that
precedes this boon to act on the surprise round. You are still considered flat-footed until you take an action.
Alternatively, you can check a box to reroll an initiative check.
Unravel Magic (Spellcaster Mission): [][] You have friends who know their way around magic. Check the box that precedes this boon as a swift action. A Pathfinder ally briefly enters the fight and casts dispel magic, with a caster level equal to your character level. If your character level is at least 13 when you activate this boon, your ally can cast greater dispel magic instead.
Timely Delivery (Muscle Mission): [][] No matter where you travel, you can count on one of your Pathfinder allies to keep you ready. You can spend 1 minute and 2 PP and check the box that precedes this boon to gain an item costing 750 gp or less. Unlike a normal purchase made with PP, you do not need to be anywhere near a settlement to acquire the item.
Tactical Strike (Guard Mission): [] You can rally your allies to make a coordinated strike. Check the box
that precedes this boon as a swift action and select one opponent. Until the beginning of your next turn, you
and all of your allies deal an additional 1d8 points of damage on all attacks against that opponent. You are
considered to be flanking that opponent if at least two of your allies are threatening that foe, regardless of
your actual positioning.
Restorative Burst (Medic Mission): [] A spark of divine grace from your medic allies protects you. When
you would be reduced to less than 0 hit points, you can check the box that precedes this boon to automatically
trigger a burst of healing around your body. This heals you and all willing allies within 30 feet, as the channel
energy ability of a cleric of your level.
Necromantic Surge: [][][][] You can check a box that precedes this boon to strike foes with the Whispering
Tyrant’s magic, using one of the following spell-like abilities based on your level when you activate this boon.
Use your character level as your caster level, and use your Charisma modifier to determine the spell’s DC.
Levels 5–8: You can use a spell-like ability from the following list: bestow curse, command undead, enervation,
false life, fear, or vampiric touch.
Levels 9–12: Add eyebite, possession (Pathfinder RPG Occult Adventures 181), and waves of fatigue to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Levels 13–16: Add control undead, finger of death, and greater possession (Occult Adventures 181) to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two boxes to use these spells.
Levels 17+: Add energy drain and wail of the banshee to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two
boxes to use these spells.
Echoing Paradox: [] A trace of the magic of the Sanctum of Lost Ages clings to you, and against all odds and reason, a future or past version of you can appear to provide assistance in a time of need. Before you roll an attack roll, a skill check, or a saving throw, a copy of you appears either to flank with you or to grant you a +2 bonus as per the aid another action. If you have an ability that grants a higher bonus on aid another actions, you gain this as a bonus instead; the copy also shares all of your teamwork feats. After the attack, skill check, or save is resolved, the copy fades away, and you are shaken until the end of your next turn by the unsettling paradox of being at two places at once.
Aggressive Researcher: [] You have proven your mettle in Absalom’s greatest libraries, and in the course of your research, you uncovered many facts that were not immediately relevant but might one day prove useful. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a Knowledge (arcana, history, or planes) check in order to treat your final check result as if it were 25, even if you are not trained in the skill. Alternatively, you may instead gain a +5 bonus on the check.
Acquainted with Aslynn: The entity known as Aslynn knows who you are and what you did in the Forae Logos. Whether this is to your advantage or detriment is as yet unknown.
Impossible Feat: [] The extraordinary actions possible within a dream might not be possible while awake, but you nonetheless dream of performing a similarly spectacular deed. You may cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a skill check, saving throw, or attack roll to add 1d6 to the result of your check. If you roll a 6, roll the six-sided die again and combine the results. You may repeat this process up to twice for a maximum additional bonus of +18.
Charted Pillars: You can borrow a copy of Venture-Captain Norden Balentiir’s map of the Pillars of the Sun while traveling to that region. The map is imperfect, but it provides enough sufficient information about safe routes through the mountains that you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (geography) and Survival checks made when navigating the area.
Recruiter of Badru: You have convinced the soulbound construct Badru to contact Zarta Dralneen and consult for her Dark Archive. When you use Prestige Points to purchase make whole as a spellcasting service, Badru himself casts it at CL 12th. This boon may have other uses in future scenarios.
Relic Guardian: Your stewardship of historical treasures inspires you to act quickly to save such relics from destruction. Once per scenario, when an unattended object within your reach is targeted by an offensive spell, attack, or effect, you can treat that object as though it were in your possession for the purpose of attempting saving throws and resisting sunder attempts. If an opponent succeeds at a combat maneuver check to sunder an object in your possession, you can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to force the creature to reroll the attack with a –5 penalty.
* Boon Grants Permanent Bonus.

Koryo inches the door open, then moves slowly into the hall. That door has pirates behind it. The stairs looked like they went pretty far back, so those doors were probably just storage closets or something.
He looks back to Mordack, takes off his fairly piratical-looking hat, and points at it while waving towards West 1 and shaking his head.
Koryo motions down the hall towards East 1, listening at it if nobody else seems to object.

Before Koryo can slip out, Sorithar whispers.
"I'll be right behind you, looking for arcane surprises. Look for my gesture before touching any of the doors!"
With that, Sorithar deftly casts an incatation and then, as silently as he is able, skulks out behind the others.

Select one Pathfinder Society Scenario for which you earned less than the maximum number of Prestige Points. Increase the Prestige Points and Fame earned by 1 (or 0.5 if using the slow advancement track), up to the scenario’s maximum. Record the additional Prestige Points on that character’s next Chronicle sheet as well as below.
* Elemental Conquest: [] You have fought and fraternized with the guardians of Aucturn’s Tear, and although you triumphed, it is clear that this is not the last time you’ll clash with elemental forces. Choose one of the benefits below, and cross the other two off your Chronicle sheet. You may select an option only so long as you successfully completed at least one encounter in a region with that elemental affinity during this adventure.
Fire: You gain a +1 insight bonus on saving throws against spells, spell-like abilities, and effects of creatures with the fire subtype and against spells with the fire descriptor.
While adventuring on the Plane of Fire, you instead gain a +1 insight bonus on all saving throws.
As a swift action, you can check the box that precedes this boon in order to grant one weapon you wield the flaming weapon special ability for 1 minute; if the weapon already has the flaming special ability, it instead gains flaming burst for 1 minute.
Ranginori’s Debt: [][] You helped recover the Untouchable Opal, within which Ranginori, Elemental Lord of Air, is trapped. While imprisoned, his power is limited. Nonetheless, he has granted you an initial gift with the promise of greater rewards should the Society free him. You can activate this boon as a standard action by checking one of the boxes that precedes it, gaining one of the benefits based on your level when you activate the boon. For any spell-like ability, use your character level as your caster level.
Any Level: You can recall a spell slot or prepared spell you already cast that day. The spell is prepared again or the spell slot is available for use again, as if it had not been used already.
Levels 1–4: You cast cat’s grace, cure moderate wounds, lesser restoration, or shocking grasp as a spell-like ability.
Levels 5–8: Add cure serious wounds, fly, and lightning bolt to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 9–11: Add call lightning storm and cure critical wounds to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 12+: Add heal and whirlwind to the list of spell-like abilities you can use, though both of these spell-like abilities requires you to check both boxes.
Tome of First Contact [X][][][][]: You have recovered a strange tome that details utterly bizarre creatures rarely seen on your world. After rolling a Knowledge check to identify an aberration, ooze, or outsider (or a creature that is not native to Golarion) and learning the results, you can check one or more boxes that precede this boon. For each box you check, you can learn one additional piece of information, as if your Knowledge check result had been 5 higher. If you did not succeed at the Knowledge check in the first place, you can check one box to succeed at the Knowledge check to learn one piece of information plus the creature’s name, type, and subtypes.
Once you check the last box, you’ve expended the tome’s greatest secrets. It remains a curious keepsake.
Ectoplasmic Enhancement []: You recovered a sample of concentrated ectoplasm from the Gloomspires. You may activate this ectoplasm as a swift action to treat all of your natural attacks, unarmed strikes, and weapon attacks as if they had the ghost touch property for 1 round. If you have at least one level in the spiritualist class, the ghost touch property persists for 3 rounds and also affects her phantom’s natural attacks. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.
Aid of the Overwatched [][]: You returned Ralzeros the Overwatched to Golarion and convinced him to lend his aid to the Dark Archive. In thanks for your help, Ralzeros convinces his familiar Daosvaria to send a piece of her essence and knowledge to assist you.
Instead of taking Daosvaria as a familiar, you can call her forth to share fragments of Ralzeros’s knowledge. Check a box that precedes this boon to roll a single Knowledge check using a bonus of 5 plus your character level in place of your typical bonus. If your own bonus is higher, you may instead gain a +2 bonus on the Knowledge check.
If you use this benefit, cross the option to take Daosvaria as a familiar off your Chronicle sheet.
Blessing of Nivi [X][X][][]: Your efforts on behalf of Kalsgard’s gnome population have drawn the attention, and blessing of the gnome goddess Nivi Rhombodazzle. This boon has different effects depending on your race. If you are a non-gnome, you may check a box next to this boon to cast blur as a swift action, with a caster level equal to your total character level. Once you have checked all the boxes next to this boon, you gain Gnome as a bonus language; this has no further effect for characters who already speak Gnome.
Gnomes of the North [][][]: You have befriended the gnomes of Kalsgard and found a home away from home at the Hall of Seven Wagers. You can check a box next to this boon to use either Bluff, Knowledge (local), or Sleight of Hand to make your Day Job check at the end of an adventure, doubling the amount of gold normally received for the result of your check. If you already have the ability to use one of these skills to make a Day Job check, checking a box instead grants you a +2 bonus on such a check, in addition to doubling the gold received as normal. This boon’s doubling effect does not stack with other benefits that would multiply the result of your Day Job check.)
Ghalcor’s Spellcraft: Following the battle at Ghalcor’s Tower, you were able to study the dead cleric’s notes and discovered that he also developed a handful of powerful spells. Now the Pathfinder Society and the Mendevian Crusade can wield these in the fight against the Worldwound. So long as you possess this boon, all of your Pathfinder Society Organized Play characters have access to the following spells from Pathfinder Player Companion: Demon Hunter’s Handbook as if they appeared on the Additional Resources page: burst with light, detect demon, and righteous blood.
Mendevian Commendation: You have received a medal for your service to Mendev and the Fifth Crusade. For every Mendevian Commendation you have, you gain a cumulative +1 bonus on Charisma-based skill and ability checks made to influence crusaders of Mendev (maximum +3).
Elixir of Renewal: [][] You gain a special elixir that you can consume as if it were a potion in order to restore 2d8+5 hit points as well as 1d4 points of one type of ability damage. You can use the potion only once, even if the user is under the effects of alchemical allocation (Pathfnder RPG Advanced Player’s Guide 201) or a similar effect that would allow one to benefit from a potion multiple times. Check the box that precedes this boon when you use this elixir.
[STRIKE]Righteous Redemption: [X] Thanks to your work bringing a lost hero’s legacy to light, key leaders in the crusader nation of Lastwall have begun seeing Pathfnders less as ruffians and more as potential allies. Between adventures or while in Lastwall, you can check the box that precedes this boon to requisition one of the following: a satchel containing six flasks of holy water and an oil of bless weapon; two scrolls of lesser restoration; a combat-trained warhorse (heavy or light) with a military saddle, bit, bridle, and week of feed; a masterwork longsword; or a masterwork lance. This gear is yours to do with as you please, but it has an effective resale value of 0 gp.[/STRIKE]
Worthy Foe: [][][] Lastwall is the Inner Sea’s bulwark against countless evils, and you have proven yourself against a local villain. As a swift action, you can check a box that precedes this boon to gain one of two benefits against enemies that correspond to the threat you defeated. First, you can choose to gain a +2 bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls against such creatures, as well as a +2 dodge bonus to AC against such creatures’ attacks.
Alternatively, you can gain a +2 bonus on caster level checks to overcome those creatures’ spell resistance, increase the save DC of your spells and abilities against those creatures by 1, and gain a +2 bonus on saving throws against those creatures’ spells and abilities. Either benefit lasts until the beginning of your next turn.
Tusks: You gain the benefits above against magical beasts and humanoids with the orc subtype.
Duskwarden’s Favor: [] Your actions below Kaer Maga have impressed the Duskwardens, and these guides teach you some of their tricks for safely navigating dangerous caverns. You can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to gain the ranger favored terrain ability (+2) in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario. If you already have favored terrain in underground environments, add 2 to the bonuses that you gain in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario.
What Ambush? (Scout Mission): [][] Your experience in Gallowspire has sharpened your senses against
hidden foes. When you would fail a Perception check to act on the surprise round, you can check a box that
precedes this boon to act on the surprise round. You are still considered flat-footed until you take an action.
Alternatively, you can check a box to reroll an initiative check.
Unravel Magic (Spellcaster Mission): [][] You have friends who know their way around magic. Check the box that precedes this boon as a swift action. A Pathfinder ally briefly enters the fight and casts dispel magic, with a caster level equal to your character level. If your character level is at least 13 when you activate this boon, your ally can cast greater dispel magic instead.
Timely Delivery (Muscle Mission): [][] No matter where you travel, you can count on one of your Pathfinder allies to keep you ready. You can spend 1 minute and 2 PP and check the box that precedes this boon to gain an item costing 750 gp or less. Unlike a normal purchase made with PP, you do not need to be anywhere near a settlement to acquire the item.
Tactical Strike (Guard Mission): [] You can rally your allies to make a coordinated strike. Check the box
that precedes this boon as a swift action and select one opponent. Until the beginning of your next turn, you
and all of your allies deal an additional 1d8 points of damage on all attacks against that opponent. You are
considered to be flanking that opponent if at least two of your allies are threatening that foe, regardless of
your actual positioning.
Restorative Burst (Medic Mission): [] A spark of divine grace from your medic allies protects you. When
you would be reduced to less than 0 hit points, you can check the box that precedes this boon to automatically
trigger a burst of healing around your body. This heals you and all willing allies within 30 feet, as the channel
energy ability of a cleric of your level.
Necromantic Surge: [][][][] You can check a box that precedes this boon to strike foes with the Whispering
Tyrant’s magic, using one of the following spell-like abilities based on your level when you activate this boon.
Use your character level as your caster level, and use your Charisma modifier to determine the spell’s DC.
Levels 5–8: You can use a spell-like ability from the following list: bestow curse, command undead, enervation,
false life, fear, or vampiric touch.
Levels 9–12: Add eyebite, possession (Pathfinder RPG Occult Adventures 181), and waves of fatigue to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Levels 13–16: Add control undead, finger of death, and greater possession (Occult Adventures 181) to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two boxes to use these spells.
Levels 17+: Add energy drain and wail of the banshee to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two
boxes to use these spells.
Echoing Paradox: [] A trace of the magic of the Sanctum of Lost Ages clings to you, and against all odds and reason, a future or past version of you can appear to provide assistance in a time of need. Before you roll an attack roll, a skill check, or a saving throw, a copy of you appears either to flank with you or to grant you a +2 bonus as per the aid another action. If you have an ability that grants a higher bonus on aid another actions, you gain this as a bonus instead; the copy also shares all of your teamwork feats. After the attack, skill check, or save is resolved, the copy fades away, and you are shaken until the end of your next turn by the unsettling paradox of being at two places at once.
Aggressive Researcher: [] You have proven your mettle in Absalom’s greatest libraries, and in the course of your research, you uncovered many facts that were not immediately relevant but might one day prove useful. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a Knowledge (arcana, history, or planes) check in order to treat your final check result as if it were 25, even if you are not trained in the skill. Alternatively, you may instead gain a +5 bonus on the check.
Acquainted with Aslynn: The entity known as Aslynn knows who you are and what you did in the Forae Logos. Whether this is to your advantage or detriment is as yet unknown.
Impossible Feat: [] The extraordinary actions possible within a dream might not be possible while awake, but you nonetheless dream of performing a similarly spectacular deed. You may cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a skill check, saving throw, or attack roll to add 1d6 to the result of your check. If you roll a 6, roll the six-sided die again and combine the results. You may repeat this process up to twice for a maximum additional bonus of +18.
Charted Pillars: You can borrow a copy of Venture-Captain Norden Balentiir’s map of the Pillars of the Sun while traveling to that region. The map is imperfect, but it provides enough sufficient information about safe routes through the mountains that you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (geography) and Survival checks made when navigating the area.
Recruiter of Badru: You have convinced the soulbound construct Badru to contact Zarta Dralneen and consult for her Dark Archive. When you use Prestige Points to purchase make whole as a spellcasting service, Badru himself casts it at CL 12th. This boon may have other uses in future scenarios.
Relic Guardian: Your stewardship of historical treasures inspires you to act quickly to save such relics from destruction. Once per scenario, when an unattended object within your reach is targeted by an offensive spell, attack, or effect, you can treat that object as though it were in your possession for the purpose of attempting saving throws and resisting sunder attempts. If an opponent succeeds at a combat maneuver check to sunder an object in your possession, you can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to force the creature to reroll the attack with a –5 penalty.

The Pathfinders quietly begin their search for the slaves and more importantly the slave-maker and traitor, Phlegos.
The hall is quiet though the first door they come to is locked. With a careful practice Sokoryo quickly and calmly pulls out his tools and tricks the lock into opening.
There next room is similarly locked, and again Sokoryo is able to open it calmly.
The room after that has noise behind it.

He is garbed in finely wrought, though slightly worn, dark explorer's garb with plenty of pockets and pouches, some of which seem quite full. A pair of dagger hilts stick out of each of his well tailored leather boots and a smaller crossbow hangs from a hook at his waist, across from a pouch of bolts. In his hands is a well worn, black basalt staff that seems almost alive, twisting into random irregular geometric patterns. On several of his fingers are gleaming rings of gold, bronze and other hues. A finely wrought, slim silvery headband sits upon his brow.
Short, tapered wands are tucked into his waist sash and one small gemstone hovers about his head, spinning around it at a distance of roughly a foot.

If you check the box included with this boon, you gain the benefits of this boon for the duration of one scenario set anywhere other than the Gloomspires.
Debt of Cyphers: You rescued ex-Pathfinder and Cyphergate scholar Hirako Gurukaza from the hands of pirate kidnappers. In thanks, he has spread your name among the Order of the Cyphers. When in Riddleport, you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (arcana) and Linguistics checks when you consult Gurukaza before making the check.

* You Rescued the Minotaur Prince: You rescued Nuar Spiritskin, the Minotaur Prince of Absalom and he is quite grateful that you have done so.

You gain a permanent +1 circumstance bonus to any Intelligence or Charisma-based checks made while in Absalom.
New Recruit (J. Dacilane) []: Your team of Pathfinders sponsored J. to join the Pathfinder Society. In exchange, she is eager to assist you on one of your future missions.

Ally of the Green [][][]: You have communed with the fugitive leshys of Anglemire and demonstrated your respect for their humble treasures.

If you succeed, you make a small but significant archaeological discovery that allows you, and only you, to earn the Prestige Point reward anyway. You cannot Take 10 on this check.
Imperium Initiate []: Your study of Jistkan ruins and golems has taught you a few tricks for handling the supernatural soldiers of ancient Garund.

A Pathfinder ally briefly enters the fight and casts dispel magic, with a caster level equal to your character level. If your character level is at least 13 when you activate this boon, your ally can cast greater dispel magic instead.
Timely Delivery (Muscle Mission): [][] No matter where you travel, you can count on one of your Pathfinder allies to keep you ready. You can spend 1 minute and 2 PP and check the box that precedes this boon to gain an item costing 750 gp or less. Unlike a normal purchase made with PP, you do not need to be anywhere near a settlement to acquire the item.
Tactical Strike (Guard Mission): [] You can rally your allies to make a coordinated strike. Check the box
that precedes this boon as a swift action and select one opponent. Until the beginning of your next turn, you
and all of your allies deal an additional 1d8 points of damage on all attacks against that opponent. You are
considered to be flanking that opponent if at least two of your allies are threatening that foe, regardless of
your actual positioning.
Restorative Burst (Medic Mission): [] A spark of divine grace from your medic allies protects you. When
you would be reduced to less than 0 hit points, you can check the box that precedes this boon to automatically
trigger a burst of healing around your body. This heals you and all willing allies within 30 feet, as the channel
energy ability of a cleric of your level.
Necromantic Surge: [][][][] You can check a box that precedes this boon to strike foes with the Whispering
Tyrant’s magic, using one of the following spell-like abilities based on your level when you activate this boon.
Use your character level as your caster level, and use your Charisma modifier to determine the spell’s DC.
Levels 5–8: You can use a spell-like ability from the following list: bestow curse, command undead, enervation,
false life, fear, or vampiric touch.
Levels 9–12: Add eyebite, possession (Pathfinder RPG Occult Adventures 181), and waves of fatigue to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Levels 13–16: Add control undead, finger of death, and greater possession (Occult Adventures 181) to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two boxes to use these spells.
Levels 17+: Add energy drain and wail of the banshee to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two
boxes to use these spells.
Echoing Paradox: [] A trace of the magic of the Sanctum of Lost Ages clings to you, and against all odds and reason, a future or past version of you can appear to provide assistance in a time of need. Before you roll an attack roll, a skill check, or a saving throw, a copy of you appears either to flank with you or to grant you a +2 bonus as per the aid another action. If you have an ability that grants a higher bonus on aid another actions, you gain this as a bonus instead; the copy also shares all of your teamwork feats. After the attack, skill check, or save is resolved, the copy fades away, and you are shaken until the end of your next turn by the unsettling paradox of being at two places at once.
Aggressive Researcher: [] You have proven your mettle in Absalom’s greatest libraries, and in the course of your research, you uncovered many facts that were not immediately relevant but might one day prove useful. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a Knowledge (arcana, history, or planes) check in order to treat your final check result as if it were 25, even if you are not trained in the skill. Alternatively, you may instead gain a +5 bonus on the check.
Acquainted with Aslynn: The entity known as Aslynn knows who you are and what you did in the Forae Logos. Whether this is to your advantage or detriment is as yet unknown.
Impossible Feat: [] The extraordinary actions possible within a dream might not be possible while awake, but you nonetheless dream of performing a similarly spectacular deed. You may cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a skill check, saving throw, or attack roll to add 1d6 to the result of your check. If you roll a 6, roll the six-sided die again and combine the results. You may repeat this process up to twice for a maximum additional bonus of +18.
Charted Pillars: You can borrow a copy of Venture-Captain Norden Balentiir’s map of the Pillars of the Sun while traveling to that region. The map is imperfect, but it provides enough sufficient information about safe routes through the mountains that you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (geography) and Survival checks made when navigating the area.
Recruiter of Badru: You have convinced the soulbound construct Badru to contact Zarta Dralneen and consult for her Dark Archive. When you use Prestige Points to purchase make whole as a spellcasting service, Badru himself casts it at CL 12th. This boon may have other uses in future scenarios.
Relic Guardian: Your stewardship of historical treasures inspires you to act quickly to save such relics from destruction. Once per scenario, when an unattended object within your reach is targeted by an offensive spell, attack, or effect, you can treat that object as though it were in your possession for the purpose of attempting saving throws and resisting sunder attempts. If an opponent succeeds at a combat maneuver check to sunder an object in your possession, you can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to force the creature to reroll the attack with a –5 penalty.

Though making every attempt to remain quiet, the scratching of pencil on paper seems quite loud. Perhaps that is only because they are making every attempt to remain quiet.
Once inside, you see one tengu pirate and several slaves chained together with and bolted to the floor.

Mykel motions for Koryo, Spica and Mordack to go one way, and Soritar with him. He holds up a thumb and moves the right side door.
He nods to Sorithar to open the door and waits for the others to get set up. He holds up three fingers, then counts down to zero and nods for the door to open. He steps in, ready to engage.
[ooc]my initiative is actually +9, with having panache, but it's moot at this point i think...lol...will use my move to get in base contact. will roll 2 parry/ripostes ...have Combat Reflexes...will spoiler them to save eye strain...lol. also, can someone place my token in contact with the pirate? i have trouble copying tokens on my trackpad...ty

Koryo waits by the door, rapier drawn, and adjusts his grip to bludgeon the pirate on the other side. Less blood means easier to conceal.
When the door is thrown open, Koryo rushes in. Not by the door to the dogs, which means- He spins around and closes with the tengu.
"Shhhhh..." he says quietly.
If the pirate provokes an AoO by retrieving a whistle or other obvious mechanical signal device, attempt to sunder it as the AoO. Adamantine rapier, so it'll probably ignore the hardness. Not sure if the 5 precision damage on the rolls would apply though.
If the pirate provokes an AoO by retrieving some unknown thing, a magic item or something, attempt to disarm him of it as the AoO.
If attacked, Koryo will attempt to parry. If successful, he will riposte.
Note that either of those maneuvers will provoke an AoO from the tengu, which Koryo will attempt to parry. However, as per the FAQ, they still use Dex instead of Str, so the rolls below are fine for CMB, attack-to-hurt, and parry.
Gloves of Marking work when weilding a piercing/slashing weapon. Since I'm specifically trying to not cut him up here, I'm assuming the gloves don't work.

After studying the formula book for a few minutes, Sorithar joins the others just in time to nod at Mykel's gesture and reach for the door. Swinging it open, he dashes in on the heels of the swashbuckler and studies the tengu for a breath even as he brings a spell to mind.
Can locate glyphs of warding, symbol spells, and similar magical spell traps that use writing as if he were a rogue. He can use Perception or Knowledge (arcana) to notice such traps, and can use Disable Device or Spellcraft to disable these types of traps.

He is garbed in finely wrought, though slightly worn, dark explorer's garb with plenty of pockets and pouches, some of which seem quite full. A pair of dagger hilts stick out of each of his well tailored leather boots and a smaller crossbow hangs from a hook at his waist, across from a pouch of bolts. In his hands is a well worn, black basalt staff that seems almost alive, twisting into random irregular geometric patterns. On several of his fingers are gleaming rings of gold, bronze and other hues. A finely wrought, slim silvery headband sits upon his brow.
Short, tapered wands are tucked into his waist sash and one small gemstone hovers about his head, spinning around it at a distance of roughly a foot.

Within Chronicle: letter of introduction
* Timelost Chronicler: You have journeyed through the ancient serpentfolk city of Sessegishoss and witnessed the fall of the Starstone, granting you a remarkable perspective of Golarion’s history. You gain a permanent +1 bonus on Knowledge (history) checks from your first-hand knowledge. Once per scenario you may call on the nascent power granted by your exposure to the falling Starstone to find inner greatness, granting you a +1 morale bonus to a single d20 roll. You must declare your use of this power before the roll is made.
Gloomspire Explorer []: Despite having studied only a small portion of Sevenfingers’s tomb, you are now one of the Society’s foremost authorities on the enigmatic Gloomspires. While adventuring in the Gloomspires, you receive a +2 bonus on all Perception checks made to find hidden objects such as traps, treasure, and secret doors. If you check the box included with this boon, you gain the benefits of this boon for the duration of one scenario set anywhere other than the Gloomspires.
Debt of Cyphers: You rescued ex-Pathfinder and Cyphergate scholar Hirako Gurukaza from the hands of pirate kidnappers. In thanks, he has spread your name among the Order of the Cyphers. When in Riddleport, you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (arcana) and Linguistics checks when you consult Gurukaza before making the check. In addition, the Order's connection to some of Riddleport's more powerful criminal elements also provides you a future benefit in the form of a +2 bonus on Diplomacy checks made in the city to gather information.
* Riddleport Respect: Word of your defeat of pirate captain Alejia Netrav has spread throughout Riddleport, and you've earned the respect of the criminals and thugs that call the city home. When you flex your muscle, folks in the City of Cyphers pay attention. You receive a +2 bonus on Intimidate checks made in Riddleport as a result.
* You Rescued the Minotaur Prince: You rescued Nuar Spiritskin, the Minotaur Prince of Absalom and he is quite grateful that you have done so. Though he is absolutely unclear how he got into the Tangle in the first place, he pays this no mind and spreads the tale of your daring-do to his many contacts throughout the city. You gain a permanent +1 circumstance bonus to any Intelligence or Charisma-based checks made while in Absalom.
New Recruit (J. Dacilane) []: Your team of Pathfinders sponsored J. to join the Pathfinder Society. In exchange, she is eager to assist you on one of your future missions. You can direct J. to cast a spell from the spiritualist list (Pathfinder RPG Occult Adventures 76) as a standard action. The spell’s level can be up to one third of your character level (minimum 0). J.’s caster level is equal to your character level – 3 (minimum 2), and her Wisdom score is 17. J. is a noncombatant, and she is considered to be in your square for the purpose of determining the origin of her spell. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle Sheet.
Ally of the Green [][][]: You have communed with the fugitive leshys of Anglemire and demonstrated your respect for their humble treasures. As a parting gift, the leshy Harvest Stripe gave you three gourd seeds imbued with some of the leshys' primal magic. As a standard action, you can check one of the boxes that precede this boon and consume one of these seeds as if it were a goodberry, though the seed heals 1d4+1 points of damage. Alternatively, you can feed a seed to an adjacent plant creature to grant it 5 temporary hit points and the benefits of divine favour (CL 6th) for 1 minute. When you check the last box, cross the entire boon off your Chronicle sheet.
* Archaeological Expert []: The Pathfinder Society has a strong tradition of archaeological exploration, and you have proven yourself a capable excavator and historian. You gain a +1 bonus to Appraise and Knowledge (history) checks to identify the cultural significance of art and objects. If you would fulfill the primary success conditions of an adventure but fail its secondary success conditions, you can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet and attempt an Apprise, Knowledge (history), or Profession (archaeologist) check (DC = 10 + 2*character level). If you succeed, you make a small but significant archaeological discovery that allows you, and only you, to earn the Prestige Point reward anyway. You cannot Take 10 on this check.
Imperium Initiate []: Your study of Jistkan ruins and golems has taught you a few tricks for handling the supernatural soldiers of ancient Garund. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before casting a spell to make it especially effective against constructs and divs. Those creatures take a -2 penalty on all saving throws made against the spell for 1 round. Alternatively, you can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet as a free action to treat hardness and damage reduction of all constructs and divs as 5 lower against your attacks for 1 round.
* Delvehaven Star []: You were an integral part of the Pathfinder Society’s first sanctioned expeditions in Cheliax in many years. In recognition of your role in this important milestone, the Society has imprinted your wayfinder with the Delvehaven Star—named in honor of a famous Chelish Pathfinder lodge. You gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (history, local, and nobility) checks associated with Cheliax, and you gain a +1 bonus to your initiative while adventuring in Cheliax. Furthermore, you can check the box that precedes this boon when spending Prestige Points for spellcasting services to reduce the cost by 2 (minimum 0).
* Eye for Traitors (Dark Archive faction) []: You gain a permanent +2 bonus on Sense Motive checks to tell if someone is lying and on Will saves against illusions. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet in order to re-roll a failed saving throw against an illusion effect and take the second result.
Precious Vindication []: At last! You have uncovered vital data that proves that you made the right choice under pressure, even if the common perception was that you had failed. Select one Pathfinder Society Scenario for which you earned less than the maximum number of Prestige Points. Increase the Prestige Points and Fame earned by 1 (or 0.5 if using the slow advancement track), up to the scenario’s maximum. Record the additional Prestige Points on that character’s next Chronicle sheet as well as below.
* Elemental Conquest: [] You have fought and fraternized with the guardians of Aucturn’s Tear, and although you triumphed, it is clear that this is not the last time you’ll clash with elemental forces. Choose one of the benefits below, and cross the other two off your Chronicle sheet. You may select an option only so long as you successfully completed at least one encounter in a region with that elemental affinity during this adventure.
Fire: You gain a +1 insight bonus on saving throws against spells, spell-like abilities, and effects of creatures with the fire subtype and against spells with the fire descriptor.
While adventuring on the Plane of Fire, you instead gain a +1 insight bonus on all saving throws.
As a swift action, you can check the box that precedes this boon in order to grant one weapon you wield the flaming weapon special ability for 1 minute; if the weapon already has the flaming special ability, it instead gains flaming burst for 1 minute.
Ranginori’s Debt: [][] You helped recover the Untouchable Opal, within which Ranginori, Elemental Lord of Air, is trapped. While imprisoned, his power is limited. Nonetheless, he has granted you an initial gift with the promise of greater rewards should the Society free him. You can activate this boon as a standard action by checking one of the boxes that precedes it, gaining one of the benefits based on your level when you activate the boon. For any spell-like ability, use your character level as your caster level.
Any Level: You can recall a spell slot or prepared spell you already cast that day. The spell is prepared again or the spell slot is available for use again, as if it had not been used already.
Levels 1–4: You cast cat’s grace, cure moderate wounds, lesser restoration, or shocking grasp as a spell-like ability.
Levels 5–8: Add cure serious wounds, fly, and lightning bolt to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 9–11: Add call lightning storm and cure critical wounds to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Level 12+: Add heal and whirlwind to the list of spell-like abilities you can use, though both of these spell-like abilities requires you to check both boxes.
Tome of First Contact [X][][][][]: You have recovered a strange tome that details utterly bizarre creatures rarely seen on your world. After rolling a Knowledge check to identify an aberration, ooze, or outsider (or a creature that is not native to Golarion) and learning the results, you can check one or more boxes that precede this boon. For each box you check, you can learn one additional piece of information, as if your Knowledge check result had been 5 higher. If you did not succeed at the Knowledge check in the first place, you can check one box to succeed at the Knowledge check to learn one piece of information plus the creature’s name, type, and subtypes.
Once you check the last box, you’ve expended the tome’s greatest secrets. It remains a curious keepsake.
Ectoplasmic Enhancement []: You recovered a sample of concentrated ectoplasm from the Gloomspires. You may activate this ectoplasm as a swift action to treat all of your natural attacks, unarmed strikes, and weapon attacks as if they had the ghost touch property for 1 round. If you have at least one level in the spiritualist class, the ghost touch property persists for 3 rounds and also affects her phantom’s natural attacks. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.
Aid of the Overwatched [][]: You returned Ralzeros the Overwatched to Golarion and convinced him to lend his aid to the Dark Archive. In thanks for your help, Ralzeros convinces his familiar Daosvaria to send a piece of her essence and knowledge to assist you.
Instead of taking Daosvaria as a familiar, you can call her forth to share fragments of Ralzeros’s knowledge. Check a box that precedes this boon to roll a single Knowledge check using a bonus of 5 plus your character level in place of your typical bonus. If your own bonus is higher, you may instead gain a +2 bonus on the Knowledge check.
If you use this benefit, cross the option to take Daosvaria as a familiar off your Chronicle sheet.
Blessing of Nivi [X][X][][]: Your efforts on behalf of Kalsgard’s gnome population have drawn the attention, and blessing of the gnome goddess Nivi Rhombodazzle. This boon has different effects depending on your race. If you are a non-gnome, you may check a box next to this boon to cast blur as a swift action, with a caster level equal to your total character level. Once you have checked all the boxes next to this boon, you gain Gnome as a bonus language; this has no further effect for characters who already speak Gnome.
Gnomes of the North [][][]: You have befriended the gnomes of Kalsgard and found a home away from home at the Hall of Seven Wagers. You can check a box next to this boon to use either Bluff, Knowledge (local), or Sleight of Hand to make your Day Job check at the end of an adventure, doubling the amount of gold normally received for the result of your check. If you already have the ability to use one of these skills to make a Day Job check, checking a box instead grants you a +2 bonus on such a check, in addition to doubling the gold received as normal. This boon’s doubling effect does not stack with other benefits that would multiply the result of your Day Job check.)
Ghalcor’s Spellcraft: Following the battle at Ghalcor’s Tower, you were able to study the dead cleric’s notes and discovered that he also developed a handful of powerful spells. Now the Pathfinder Society and the Mendevian Crusade can wield these in the fight against the Worldwound. So long as you possess this boon, all of your Pathfinder Society Organized Play characters have access to the following spells from Pathfinder Player Companion: Demon Hunter’s Handbook as if they appeared on the Additional Resources page: burst with light, detect demon, and righteous blood.
Mendevian Commendation: You have received a medal for your service to Mendev and the Fifth Crusade. For every Mendevian Commendation you have, you gain a cumulative +1 bonus on Charisma-based skill and ability checks made to influence crusaders of Mendev (maximum +3).
Elixir of Renewal: [][] You gain a special elixir that you can consume as if it were a potion in order to restore 2d8+5 hit points as well as 1d4 points of one type of ability damage. You can use the potion only once, even if the user is under the effects of alchemical allocation (Pathfnder RPG Advanced Player’s Guide 201) or a similar effect that would allow one to benefit from a potion multiple times. Check the box that precedes this boon when you use this elixir.
[STRIKE]Righteous Redemption: [X] Thanks to your work bringing a lost hero’s legacy to light, key leaders in the crusader nation of Lastwall have begun seeing Pathfnders less as ruffians and more as potential allies. Between adventures or while in Lastwall, you can check the box that precedes this boon to requisition one of the following: a satchel containing six flasks of holy water and an oil of bless weapon; two scrolls of lesser restoration; a combat-trained warhorse (heavy or light) with a military saddle, bit, bridle, and week of feed; a masterwork longsword; or a masterwork lance. This gear is yours to do with as you please, but it has an effective resale value of 0 gp.[/STRIKE]
Worthy Foe: [][][] Lastwall is the Inner Sea’s bulwark against countless evils, and you have proven yourself against a local villain. As a swift action, you can check a box that precedes this boon to gain one of two benefits against enemies that correspond to the threat you defeated. First, you can choose to gain a +2 bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls against such creatures, as well as a +2 dodge bonus to AC against such creatures’ attacks.
Alternatively, you can gain a +2 bonus on caster level checks to overcome those creatures’ spell resistance, increase the save DC of your spells and abilities against those creatures by 1, and gain a +2 bonus on saving throws against those creatures’ spells and abilities. Either benefit lasts until the beginning of your next turn.
Tusks: You gain the benefits above against magical beasts and humanoids with the orc subtype.
Duskwarden’s Favor: [] Your actions below Kaer Maga have impressed the Duskwardens, and these guides teach you some of their tricks for safely navigating dangerous caverns. You can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to gain the ranger favored terrain ability (+2) in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario. If you already have favored terrain in underground environments, add 2 to the bonuses that you gain in underground environments for the remainder of the scenario.
What Ambush? (Scout Mission): [][] Your experience in Gallowspire has sharpened your senses against
hidden foes. When you would fail a Perception check to act on the surprise round, you can check a box that
precedes this boon to act on the surprise round. You are still considered flat-footed until you take an action.
Alternatively, you can check a box to reroll an initiative check.
Unravel Magic (Spellcaster Mission): [][] You have friends who know their way around magic. Check the box that precedes this boon as a swift action. A Pathfinder ally briefly enters the fight and casts dispel magic, with a caster level equal to your character level. If your character level is at least 13 when you activate this boon, your ally can cast greater dispel magic instead.
Timely Delivery (Muscle Mission): [][] No matter where you travel, you can count on one of your Pathfinder allies to keep you ready. You can spend 1 minute and 2 PP and check the box that precedes this boon to gain an item costing 750 gp or less. Unlike a normal purchase made with PP, you do not need to be anywhere near a settlement to acquire the item.
Tactical Strike (Guard Mission): [] You can rally your allies to make a coordinated strike. Check the box
that precedes this boon as a swift action and select one opponent. Until the beginning of your next turn, you
and all of your allies deal an additional 1d8 points of damage on all attacks against that opponent. You are
considered to be flanking that opponent if at least two of your allies are threatening that foe, regardless of
your actual positioning.
Restorative Burst (Medic Mission): [] A spark of divine grace from your medic allies protects you. When
you would be reduced to less than 0 hit points, you can check the box that precedes this boon to automatically
trigger a burst of healing around your body. This heals you and all willing allies within 30 feet, as the channel
energy ability of a cleric of your level.
Necromantic Surge: [][][][] You can check a box that precedes this boon to strike foes with the Whispering
Tyrant’s magic, using one of the following spell-like abilities based on your level when you activate this boon.
Use your character level as your caster level, and use your Charisma modifier to determine the spell’s DC.
Levels 5–8: You can use a spell-like ability from the following list: bestow curse, command undead, enervation,
false life, fear, or vampiric touch.
Levels 9–12: Add eyebite, possession (Pathfinder RPG Occult Adventures 181), and waves of fatigue to the list of spell-like abilities you can use.
Levels 13–16: Add control undead, finger of death, and greater possession (Occult Adventures 181) to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two boxes to use these spells.
Levels 17+: Add energy drain and wail of the banshee to the list of spell-like abilities you can use. Check two
boxes to use these spells.
Echoing Paradox: [] A trace of the magic of the Sanctum of Lost Ages clings to you, and against all odds and reason, a future or past version of you can appear to provide assistance in a time of need. Before you roll an attack roll, a skill check, or a saving throw, a copy of you appears either to flank with you or to grant you a +2 bonus as per the aid another action. If you have an ability that grants a higher bonus on aid another actions, you gain this as a bonus instead; the copy also shares all of your teamwork feats. After the attack, skill check, or save is resolved, the copy fades away, and you are shaken until the end of your next turn by the unsettling paradox of being at two places at once.
Aggressive Researcher: [] You have proven your mettle in Absalom’s greatest libraries, and in the course of your research, you uncovered many facts that were not immediately relevant but might one day prove useful. You can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a Knowledge (arcana, history, or planes) check in order to treat your final check result as if it were 25, even if you are not trained in the skill. Alternatively, you may instead gain a +5 bonus on the check.
Acquainted with Aslynn: The entity known as Aslynn knows who you are and what you did in the Forae Logos. Whether this is to your advantage or detriment is as yet unknown.
Impossible Feat: [] The extraordinary actions possible within a dream might not be possible while awake, but you nonetheless dream of performing a similarly spectacular deed. You may cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet before attempting a skill check, saving throw, or attack roll to add 1d6 to the result of your check. If you roll a 6, roll the six-sided die again and combine the results. You may repeat this process up to twice for a maximum additional bonus of +18.
Charted Pillars: You can borrow a copy of Venture-Captain Norden Balentiir’s map of the Pillars of the Sun while traveling to that region. The map is imperfect, but it provides enough sufficient information about safe routes through the mountains that you gain a +2 bonus on Knowledge (geography) and Survival checks made when navigating the area.
Recruiter of Badru: You have convinced the soulbound construct Badru to contact Zarta Dralneen and consult for her Dark Archive. When you use Prestige Points to purchase make whole as a spellcasting service, Badru himself casts it at CL 12th. This boon may have other uses in future scenarios.
Relic Guardian: Your stewardship of historical treasures inspires you to act quickly to save such relics from destruction. Once per scenario, when an unattended object within your reach is targeted by an offensive spell, attack, or effect, you can treat that object as though it were in your possession for the purpose of attempting saving throws and resisting sunder attempts. If an opponent succeeds at a combat maneuver check to sunder an object in your possession, you can cross this boon of your Chronicle sheet to force the creature to reroll the attack with a –5 penalty.

Both pull open their respective doors and the rest of the party rushes through them.
The chaos of construction reigns in this room. Remains of a bedroom and smoking parlor linger amidst piles of debris, construction materials, and misplaced tools.
Standing over four slaves are two well dressed tengu in long leather jacket and tri-corn hats with matching feathers. They crack a whip over beaten & exhausted slaves. They turn when the door opens, "Shweggen, what are you..." one says though both mouth's are moving. The mouths simultaneously turn to grins. "Not Shweggen eh?" and slashes the whip, first at Koryo and again at Mykel as the Pathfinders move through the weapons deadly area.
