So it sounds like you already have a few great choices for replacement players BUT JUST IN CASE - I haven't played Pathfinder for awhile and level 1 is pretty easy to whip up, and I have 3 characters whose personalities & histories could easily be rewritten to be a cleric of Besmara (or Warpriest? Is Warpriest also an option?) Option 1 - "Grelthe" Half-Orc/Half-Ulfen STR/CHA musclehead learned sailing as a Thrall-slave in the Ironbound Archipelago (previously Holy Tactician Paladin of Kurgess & Dragon Skald)
Option 2 - "Althea" Half-Elf/Half-Varisian DEX/INT sneaky Skill Monkey with a heart of gold (previously Unchained Rogue & Shadowdancer)
Option 3 - "Nelimyn (Neli)" (originally 5e) Undine CON/STR/WIS Naive XenoAnthropologist nerd (& kinda Disney Princess stereotypes from animal friendlies) originally a 5e Triton Tempest Cleric/Druid multiclass.

Hello! I am late to realizing this con was starting, haha But I do have a character I think might be good for this, I think she's a level 2 (possibly 3) Magus
Might be too low level for the other characters
Thanks

However if that is what you want to do then more power to you. It is so deliciously ironic. :) The way my luck has been going, I will NEVER be able to get any of my 1e PFS character that high level. Ever. (My highest character is only 5, the next highest is 3. I've been playing on and off since 2017, so 5 years.) So that's an irrelevant concern for me. I try to pick scenerios based on RP theming that make sense for each character, which is probably part of my issue. But even after opening another low level table for the Con special, now it's CORE only, so I still can't play it. ((Shrug)) I appreciate the paizo staff trying to be flexible and expand offering based on interest, but apparently I'm just not the... majority customer, if that makes sense. There aren't enough other players in my category, and since it's a group activity I will always be left behind. I guess I just need to let go of this format :(
Anyway, everyone else have fun with the con and specials. Thank you paizo staff for being awesome, as usual. And explaining stuff to me.
Thank you for the wealth of information and explanation. previous quotes with bolded sections:

And for what it's worth I do fulfill the GM requirement, so that's good to be aware of at least.
Oh. It looks like the link is no longer working. Maybe it is too late to sign up to GM a special? At least using that method Tyranius wrote: If you wish to volunteer to GM one of the three Specials please fill out our Multi-Table Specials GM Registration Says "The form Gameday XI GM Form (Specials) is no longer accepting responses. Try contacting the owner of the form if you think this is a mistake."
Thank you for the response. #1: where/how would one make "requests and inquiries" because as someone with ONLY low level characters I have definitely been feeling the lack of options over the last year or so in ALL con availability. I would like to "complain" as loud as the high level people who already understand how all this works, please ;) #2: I asked if it was lack of GMs because it's far enough in advance I might try volunteering myself, but have never run a multi table special soooo.... if that's the only way my character can get the "experience" (AKA chronicle sheet) then I'm willing.
And me waiting so long for certain adventures to be run has only let my 1e characters fall further and further behind other "the herd" I guess :( I know some specials require so many GM stars or whatever - I don't think think one has requirements though, correct? I will check out the GM sign-up links for more info Thank you

I may be missing something, but it seems like the 1e special is missing certain subtiers? Is that due to a lack of GMs, or what? If I have a character that is a level not listed in the subtier options, should I just add them to the waitlist? Or no? Thank you
Joshua J. Frost wrote: There is only one type of overcap gold in PFS: the day job roll. If we make an error somewhere in the scenario, we still expect everyone to follow the cap on the chronicle sheet to the letter. Your day job roll adds to this total, however. Why even offer variable rewards based on PC decisions within the scenario then, if it literally doesn't affect the chronicle sheet at all?
I have a question about rewards for the 5th mini-quest "Prophesy" in 8-16 House of Harmonious Wisdom before I GM it. House of Harmonious Wisdom (Prophecy):

Yet there is not actually anything on the Chronicle sheet to notate that, in fact the text seems contradictory because the Chronicle sheet says:

[...] Calculate your rewards for this chronicle sheet based on the table below." ...but with no mention of the specifically variable monetary rewards in mini-quest 5 "Prophesy." To me, I would take this literally, as in, these are the rewards based on who you give the scroll case to:
Spoiler:
Chun Mai -> 3000 EXTRA gold in addition to table funds AND Sun Shogun Talismans boon on chronicle sheets
-> (Pigments & Headband listed below crossed OFF purchase options) Jianghong -> "Marvelous Pigments" purchase option on Chronicle sheets -> (No additional funds besides what's listed in table - & Headband listed below crossed OFF purchase options) Jiang Fei -> "Headband of Inspired Wisdom +2" purchase option on Chronicle sheets -> (No additional funds besides what's listed in table - & Pigments listed above crossed OFF purchase options) Yue Xin -> a writ of exchange for the "Star of Changdo," a diamond worth 5,000 gp. The diamond can be claimed in Po Li with the signed writ. (Also NOT mentioned on chronicle sheet!) -> (No additional funds besides what's listed in table - or maybe the 5000g value of the gem? not sure. & Pigments listed above crossed OFF purchase options) I can find no other discussion of this anywhere online?
I have a question about rewards for the 5th mini-quest "Prophesy" in 8-16 House of Harmonious Wisdom before I GM it. House of Harmonious Wisdom (Prophecy) pg.31 conclusion:
"If the PCs return to Ashima with the bejeweled scroll case, Mai Chun is ecstatic. The entire town celebrates the PCs’ triumph in the temple square. If the PCs also persuaded Song Rui to return to Ashima with them, Mai Chun and the old princess get on famously, and the phantom flits awkwardly about the riotous village party to celebrate the PCs’ success. Mai Chun pledges to publish an entire book of interviews based on their conversations, and she delights in trading poetic couplets with the well-educated phantom. A local representative of the Sun Shogun provides a reward of 3,000 gp AND access to a store of magical talismans in gratitude; if the PCs do not return the scroll case to Mai Chun, cross off the Sun Shogun Talismans reward from the PCs’ Chronicle sheets.
If the PCs gave away the scroll case to a foreign agent, they receive the reward offered by the agent and nothing more." To me, I would take this literally, as in, these are the rewards based on who you give the scroll case to:

bard/fighter is my 1st choice cause she's new, but since we already have a fighter if y'all would like slightly more arcane support I don't mind playing the magus. - level 2: Nagaji Bard 1 (Dervish Dancer) / Fighter 1 (Venomblade)
Choice that requires most work on my end (but I have time to do it):
I have NOT played this scenario before Top choice:
2nd choice:
Choice that requires most work on my end (but I have time to do it):
dot Have 2 characters that could qualify: 1) level 3 Half-Orc/Half-Ulfen: level 2 Paladin of Kurgess (Holy Tactician) / level 1 Skald (Dragon Skald)
~still updating both paizo character sheets~ Unfortunately my level 5 Rogue I wanted to use is still stuck in a scenario that started 5 weeks ago and is *still* in the 1st combat! :( So I have very low hopes of it being done by March 6th I personally am not a huge fan of extra combat-heavy scenarios (though my characters can typically handle it), I like the random aspect but mostly want to run this one for the story: I am still woefully ignorant of a LOT of lore Shadow Dragon wrote: Has anyone played this before? I have not ever run this before, no
Hello I also have an interest, just trying to figure out which character would be best: - level 2 Human (Varisian) Magus (Kapenia Dancer) - level 2 Nagaji Bard (Dervish Dancer) (haven't played yet: applied a GM module credit) - level 3 Oread (Dwarf): level 2 Unchained Monk (Elemental Monk) / level 1 Shaman (Crystal Tender) (Just finished Tyranny of the Winds trilogy, still updating paizo page) - level 1 Human (Varisian) Cleric of Desna (Varisian Pilgrim) Domains: Good/Luck (needs some tweaking due to me not realizing Desna's Divine Fighting style was the only one NOT allowed in Society, but I've got time) Will post as the characters once I've decided which would be most appropriate.

I did some experimentation: I cannot get the extension to work on mobile, no. I don't think the mobile chrome app supports extensions? The only info I can find starts with "download a new browser" so.... yeah. Instructions included below if you're still interested. And the [color=blue]color coding[/color] seems to only work (be viewable) for me when I have the extension turned on on my desktop - doesn't work on mobile either. The color in the title works either way for everything though. instructions for getting it to work on mobile: Go to the android Play Store and download the Kiwi Browser (it's based on Chrome so is compatible). Then open Kiwi and go to "chrome.google.com/webstore" and search for Paizo Campaign Tools. It should install like normal and then work in this new Kiwi browser only.
According to https://paizo.com/pathfinderSociety/clarifications it replaces the SKILL FOCUS feat.

There was a new MythWeaver's PbP game announced in discord today for Tier 7-11
It just took awhile - in case anyone else was looking for this: Inner Sea Combat
