I checked the scenario and unfortunately it's all happening on Wednesday, same day is Jak Arunai/Olandil's speech, as Thursday morning is the deadline.
Instead of shopping, Migsund is going to return to the scorpion and attempt to extract its venom. [Harvesting Poisons rules on character sheet.]
That should be enough for 2 doses of cave scorpion, or 1 dose of giant scorpion, whichever is ruled to be there.
Very cool. I take it that you put the poison on before heading to the abandoned tower?
Most of the walls and floors of this tower have collapsed. Only fragmented pieces of the stone exterior walls remain standing. A large pile of burnt wooden planks and the shattered remnants of furniture lies several hundred feet to the west of the ruin. Near the center of the ruin, a pile of bones rests in a 15-foot deep open grave.
Two arrows flies by, and one struck Kageryu in the shoulder. You see two strix standing on top of the 20ft tall crumbled wall of the abandoned tower, looking menancingly at the group.
Very cool. I take it that you put the poison on before heading to the abandoned tower?
Load it/them in my poisoner's buckler. Which did I get btw?
Migsund calmly blasts the one to the left [red] with a magic missile from wand. Then uses a move action to run his axe along his buckler to apply the poison.

@GM: You missed this question from the previous page. Looking for 1st level scrolls from the Professor, does he have any for sale? Would we have time to go to the Alchgarden?

Thank you for reminding me. The professor does not sell scrolls, you also need to go to the Tubmarket for it. And you have plenty of time to go to Alchgarden if you want alchemical supplies.

Kaervek draws a wand and fires a Magic Missile at the red strix, too.

Kaervek moves up and - using his Splintered Spear ability - creates a shortspear that hurls itself at the strix in red.
Wooden Shortspear, first range increment:1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 6 - 2 = 9 Piercing:1d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8The target takes 1 point of bleed damage each round on its turn.
Ling lines up another shot, grateful that they decided to come closer.
Nice, if it actually hits. Same target. How high up are they now?
Their altitude, measure to the bottom of their feet, is 15ft. They're in the 4th 3d block above ground while you guys are in the 1st 3d block above ground level, if that make sense.
The Pathfinder concentrate their firepower and quickly take down one of the Strix!
"Great shot Tempestas!" Migsund glances back, but calls out, "Stay under cover Kageryu!" and fires yet another magic missile at the last Strix as he rushes towards it!
After Migsund's magic missile and Tempestas' dead eye shot, the Strix is at its death door. It screams angrily at the death of its ally, and uses its all the energy it has left to unleash its final shot at Tempesstas!
PBS:1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 1 = 22Dmg:1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 1 = 4
But an arrow to your knee is the best it got. After its final shot, the strix falls from the sky, dead.
Combat Over!
The Strix EACH has 2 potion of cure light wounds, and some other mundane equipment that're not interesting (longspear, mwk composite longbow, etc)
Hearing that the Strix in the abandoned tower has been eliminated, the Docktown contact promises to mobilize their forces to create a diversion to assist your escape. Now you have the whole afternoon and evening to work on countering the Loyalist's anti-Society propaganda.
You are welcome to use any skill of your choice if you come up with a reason for that skill to assist in a counter-propaganda campaign. The Docktown representative readily suggests a variety of options, such as:
-Taking to the streets to improve people’s opinion of the Pathfinder Society (Diplomacy),
-Spreading a rumor that the duplicitous “Jacks” is actually a member of the Aspis Consortium or another rival organization (Bluff),
-Designing posters or other pro-Pathfinder artwork to be reproduced (Craft),
-Giving speeches or other performances in praise of the Society (Perform),
-Identifying the most damaging rumors that are beginning to circulate , so that the PCs and their allies can target these rumors at their source (Sense Motive).
Each of you can attempt the skill check TWICE, and take 10 is not allowed. Spells or buffs that last longer or equal to 1 hour can apply its bonus on this check.

@GM: To clarify are the PCs restricted to all PCs doing one check or is it supposed to be each PC making their own choice and check?
@Players: Given Kageryu's lack of applicable skills if we're each doing our own check he'll go with Craft since he at least has a +3 Int bonus... Let's also heal up before we continue.
Sounds like we may need # of successes, so individual effort probably for the best, even if low bonus.
Migsund carefully tries to evaluate the town's mood.
SenseMotive:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (12) + 11 = 23
Regrouping after a while, Migsund relays, "Ze populace seems most rife with us over ze 'hit and run' aspect of ze Loyalistz accusations. Ve get to leave zis place." He seems to get lost in thought for a while, expounding on this, "Ja, perhaps subconsciously they regret throwing off ze shackles of oppression without having an adequate alternate structure in place. It would be fascinating to study ze interactions of a pseudo-sublimated neurosis regarding ze abandonment... ah..". Seeing the glazed looks, he cuts off and says, "Nevermind. Just focus on reminding them zat the Pathfinder Society has been here all along, through 'Jax', und zat ve have not abandoned Pezzack, unlike ze Throne."
Migsund considers trying to implement that himself, but is too fascinated by this interaction and tries to suss out an even deeper underlying cause.
SenseMotive:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31
Migsund gasps under his breath, "Total societal metapsychological introjection!". Chasing after all of you he shouts at each, "Remind them of who zey are *now*! Not Chelaxian, but Pezzackian!" He scribbles wildly in his notebook every few steps.

Each PC can do their own checks, and I total up the number of success. There's no penalty for failure.
Migsund accurately surveyed the political amospheres in Pezzack, and comes up with the right way to discredit the Loyalist's propaganda. After all, why would you listen to anything those Chelish bootlickers that want to put you under devilist regime says?
2 successes!
Migsund makes sure to take a moment to property identify the cure potions before making sure Ling and Kageryu drink them down. "Drink them until you're full up.

Please save the potions for later if we get separated and in trouble. Since we're 'safe' after the Strix combat just use charges from CLW wands. I'll take 2 of Misgund's rolls for Kageryu's healing.

After trying to suss out what Misgund told the party Kageryu decides the poster idea has promise and he tries his hand out at both artwork and affirmations to inspire the population to stand together and reject the lies and aspersions cast by the Loyalist scum!
Craft (Posters – Artwork and Affirmations! If it fails it's all Misgund's fault):1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Craft (Posters – Artwork and Affirmations! If it fails it's all Misgund's fault):1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Those are some AWESOME rolls!
Apparently stick figures and "Loyalists BAD!" is the extent of his inspiration.

Don't forget you can attempt the check twice!
@Players: Please don't bother trying to aid Kageryu; there's no hope for those rolls. Try something you have a stat bonus in and see if the die roller gives you higher than a 6.

Under Migsund's successful leadership, the team launched an anti-propaganda campaign against the Loyalist by crafting and distributing various pro-Society posters, trinkets, and souvenirs. As this opposing voice enters the battlefield to manipulate the public opinion, the citizen of Pezzack realizes that this is yet another propaganda warfare between the factions, and promptly ignores whatever the Loyalist said and continue with their life.
"Well, I guess Benarry cares enough to send some promising rookies afterall." Oandil comments at your effort. He told you to gather any supplies you might need on the escape trip, and rest up for the night. The plan is to leave at early morning.
Time to re-prepare your spells, purchase supplis, and get ready for whatever awaits you in the sea!
Migsund spends hours recording his observations of this fascinating niche culture. In the morning before setting out, he'll refresh the heroism spells on himself, Ling, Kageryu, and Tempestas.

Kageryu bows slightly at the praise from Olandil on the team's efforts.
"Luckily for both of us the rest of those gathered were more capable than I in securing a favorable opinion of the Society."
@GM: Are there scrolls and/or potions of either Air Bubble or Touch of the Sea available in the Tubmarket?

Correction for my previous statements: Potions and Scrolls are indeed available for purchase, not from the Tubmarket or Professor Poppo(not directly), but the Academy's store.
While the Pathfinders are busy finding allies and saving the Society's reputation, Poppo spend the time to patch up the hidden whale carcass, and get it ready to go. By the time you finish your shopping, the Whaler’s Point swarms with Chelish marines. Poppo proposes to use a secret tunnel near the Guts exit to Whaler’s Point that leads to the smugglers’ grotto.
A few rays of sunlight streak into the narrow grotto to glint from the ocean outside to the shallow water within. Poppo sloshes through the water to pull at a stepping-stone in the middle of the cavern.
It dislodges with a pop, and a small swirling whirlpool gurgles in its place. “Quick!” Poppo says, as low but urgently as he can. “Into the blowhole!”
The carcass is wedged in the inlet, which is much deeper than it appears. The whale itself is cavernous, its throat littered with improvised tools, sealed kegs, and broken bits of small boats. An intricate ritual circle glows on one of the interior “walls” of the whale’s body.
Poppo seals the blowhole behind Olandil and the Pathfinders with a large iron porthole. “All aboard! We’re setting sail! Or whale... I haven’t figured out the jargon yet.”
Poppo stands in front of the ritual circle and dedicates his attention to steering the whale. He asks two of you to be his eyes by standing at the pair of hemispherical glass windows that bulge from side of the whale where its eyes once were. The “ceiling” inside the whale is 10 feet tall. A sturdy rope ladder reaches from the blowhole to the “floor” of the whale (DC 0 to Climb).
Who would like to volunteer to be the "Eye" of the whale?

I would think Misgund and his +10 to Perception for one and either Kageryu or Tuke for the second one. Tuke's the only PC with Darkvision so what do you guys think?
