The Year of the Demon Begins!

What a great way to end one season and begin another. Awesome job, as always, John and Mike!

How much is Taldor increasing the aid another bonus by?

YEAH!!!

Lucia, Elliott and Mariposa will like that Andoran Boon.

And Charlotte, well she will get to smite evil at next year's special. :D

This season was fun, I look forward to seeing what will happen next in Season 5 and onward!

Neat! I like it. Thanks, guys.

Poor Taldor XD At least they tried.

By 2. This has been added to the Chronicle sheet, which has been replaced on the server. If you've already downloaded it, please do so again for the full text of the Taldor boon.

This is awesome. LOVE, LOVE. LOVE this! Great way to kick off the new season with a bang. :-)

Sweet. Awesome chronicle.

Not going to lie - this is the one time I wish I had a Silver Crusade member. The only reason I have ever wished I had a Silver Crusade member.

In other news, I'm focusing on the Grand Lodge & Taldor storylines, so it's nice to know what scenarios are most important now.

This is incredibly helpful. :)

Dang, now I wish my Shadow Lodge character had switched to Silver Crusade earlier...

Wait wait wait. The blog says "all characters" can get this sheet, but the chronicle itself is talking like a given player can only apply it to one PC who got the most Prestige.

So is it 1/PC or 1/player?

Pathfinder Society Scenario 5—06: You Have What You Hold.

So I'm guessing River Kingdoms.

So is it 1/PC or 1/player?

1 per PC.

A player may print and assign this Chronicle sheet to each of his or her qualifying characters.

As long as a PC earned 6 or more Prestige Points with a faction during the Year of the Risen Rune, that PC can apply this Chronicle sheet.

A PC that received 6 or more Prestige Points with more than one faction applies the boon of the faction with the highest number of earned Prestige Points. In the case of a tie, the player may choose which boon the PC receives.

Got 6 out of 7. Should have played my GL Magus more!

Oh! I get it now. Thanks!

I look forward to exploring a Sky Citadel.

Hrm, people already sometimes mistake me for a paladin. Once they see me start smiting evil at the Worldwound, no one will ever believe I'm a cleric.

Just a note on that particular boon, because a lot of people seem very excited by it—not a direct response to you, Thomas—is that it's usable once and then gets crossed off the Chronicle sheet. So you don't gain the ability to smite evil in every encounter or even 1/day. I just wanted to make sure that folks weren't reading it wrong.

I'll save it for a special occasion. That Krune fellow, mayhap.

Indeed, and I'll try to use it wisely.

I think this is seriously nifty.

I admit I am a little disappointed by the silver crusade boon. (Especially compared to Taldor, Osirian and Cheliax) It would be nice if it were usable once per session, but maybe I am just undervaluing how effective smite evil is.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, otherwise this could be the first and LAST time they do this...

I see there is a Time Limit to Qualify ... but what about applying them

Say .. a Group doesn't get together till Friday the 16th or Later

The omission of a date by which this Chronicle sheet must be applied to a character was not accidental.

thank you for the Swift Response

I notice there's the usual blanks for event code, event number, GM signature. Is there any information that a player would need to input?

Excellent.

I look forward to draining the Silver Crusade of their boons during the Special. :)

This is awesome! What a great way to end/start the season(s)!

But why did latern lodge get a boon they failed as pathfindering?

Because it wouldn't be a nice way to end the year if you excluded a portion of the player base.

Besides, even in failure they earned friends.

Who failed?

it was a joke.

At first glance, I actually thought the Silver Crusade boon was one of the better ones. Sure, it's a one-time use, but Smite Evil can turn a potential TPK into a victory all by itself if used at the right time. Sadly, my Silver Crusade character converted from Shadow Lodge and hasn't actually earned any prestige for the Silver Crusade yet.

I think these boons are a fantastic bonus, and I'd like to thank the campaign for making them available.

As with any Chronicle sheet, it's not legal until it's been signed by a GM who verifies it's application to a given PC. This would just need to be filled out with the appropriate information whenever the player applies it to his character. Other than the top section, with Character Chronicle #, Pathfinder Society Number, player name, character name, faction, etc., and the righthand column, there's nothing a player needs to fill out.

Hm. So after shuffling around in the Blackros Museum and helping out with some of the younger, newer Pathfinders, I've apparently helped broker a deal with Janderhoff. Won't that be nice.

Now, what's all this about demons? Pshaw! Now, I'm no bigot, but they don't belong here, just like us living mortal folk don't belong in the Abyss!

So we can host an event to just get our players their valid year ending Chronicle sheets signed, or must it be at another event that was run?

Whatever works best for you. Probably best for the campaign not to create events that aren't going to have reported sessions under them, though, as that artificially increases the current event number in the system.

Excellent. Given the release date of the sheet and the date requirement, wanted to make sure because of our group's meeting times.

Wow, did team Qadira perform so poorly this year that all they deserved was an extra day job check?

Not as fail sounding as the Taldor one; their boon is to console themselves, really :p

On that note, the goal of Taldor for this season is far more noble; reason why my LL PC switched there :)

Question relating to online games and the general extended deadline for PbPs: if the PbP started before August 15, and the character gains enough PP to put him/her at 6 PP earned, do they still get the boon? (i.e., they are currently at 4-5 PP earned for this year and the completion of the current adventure will put them at 6-7 PP)

I actually have a couple of characters that may qualify if so!

Wow, did team Qadira perform so poorly this year that all they deserved was an extra day job check?

Yes. And be glad they are still an option...so far.....

Dun dun DUUUUUN!

You've taken my faction once. Now you're leaving me nowhere to go.

When you determine a faction is performing poorly, are you considering just the total prestige earned by all members, or is the per capita performance of its members taken into consideration?

Hmpf. I do not fret at this veiled "threat". When Mother Taldor rises from her slumber, our once-and-future colonies will tremble and bow before us again, as is their proper place.
