GM Jhaeman's "Academy of Secrets" (Inactive)

Game Master Jhaeman

Every year the Acadamae--Korvosa’s prestigious school of the arcane arts—opens its gates to the city to host the Breaching Festival, where the most skilled infiltrators are invited to enter the magically guarded Hall of Wards or die trying. Testing their luck against the university’s strongest defenses, the competitors pull out all the stops as they vie for a chance at a fortune in gold and magical treasure. This year, the school’s headmaster has invited the heroes to participate, against the contest’s longstanding traditions. While the Breaching Festival has not seen a champion in over a century and a half, this year’s festival promises to be the deadliest trial the school has ever known. Should the heroes reign victorious, the secrets they may uncover promise more than gold and glory—they may rock the very foundation of the Acadamae, and even the entire city!

Now recruiting for Pathfinder Society (First Edition) module Academy of Secrets. This is for characters of Levels 12-14 and will be played via play-by-post here on the Paizo forums. Please note that modules are longer than scenarios, and your character will be tied up in this adventure for several months (modules are a bit of a commitment!). I'm looking for four PCs and it's first-come, first-served basis but only completed check-ins below are accepted.

“Heck yeah, Mister Jhaeman! I wanna come!”

Eadie waves at Quenly and the others double-handed like a maniac. “Korvosa’s my home town you see, and I almost nearly didn’t get my application to the Academy torn up by the bursar in front of me.”

“So I think of it as my Alma Mater, and will do all that I can to defend it until it’s naught but a smoking hole in the ground!”

doh too late

Would be great to have Eadie and Quenly reunited GM, if you're willing to run for 5 :)

Okay, it looks like our Seekers will be Helgar, Flyndyngylyn (thanks for making me spell that!), Shel Whispertongue, and Quenly. Please make your way to Gameplay and tell me where in Golarion you are and what you're doing just before a magical invitation suddenly arrives.

@Eadie: Sorry, but the adventure is written for four PCs and modern PFS characters tend to be so powerful that I'd rather not add a fifth to lessen the challenge.

Sorry, GM…he goes by Flyn for short. Thanks for running a Seeker module, it is much appreciated.

Thanks again for running GM Jhaeman. It is very much appreciated by all. :)

You're both very welcome!

We'll give Quenly a chance to post an intro in Gameplay, and then get officially started.

Shel’s current gold is updated: 23,311 gold.

Will we have a chance to do any shopping early in the adventure? Not really looking for anything in particular.

@Shel: To quote many a Paizonian: "Unrevealed!"

Please add +1 to Quenly's Day Job roll (total 25) as a result of his Headband upgrade.
