This was a great experience, everyone. Besides being the only AP I've played from start to finish (and the only PACS character I've played all the way through), this game has also been a great comfort to me during some personally very challenging times. When we began playing my father had already been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer but we were still hopeful that with treatment he might have some years to live; unfortunately he died a year ago, a month after we all began the covid lockdown. When we began playing I already sensed that my marriage was over but I had not actually begun the divorce; I filed the paperwork about a month after we started and then had to continue sharing a home with her for over a year before the process was finally complete and she had moved out, through it all caring for my young daughter and trying to shelter her from the worst of the drama. Whew, it has been rough, especially with covid thrown into the mix. There were many, many times when our game was a truly wonderful respite from the unpleasant tension. Thank you all.
Though paizo has sadly given up on PACS, personally the game still has a lot of interest for me (as I mentioned, this is still only the first AP I've completed) so I hope to keep playing as long as there are other interested players and will be delighted to play again with any of this group.
And especial thanks to dinketry for running the game so superbly and smoothly, and to both dinketry and yewstance for their patience answering my many questions.
Re the chronicles question - whatever is the most convenient for you, dinketry.
Off turn: Lem forgoes 1 healing from Skizza's balmberry bush (in order to avoid the risk of shuffling in Seek Quarry).
It is the hour of Cayden Cailean's Revelry
Hour Power: On your check, you may discard a card to reroll 1 die showing 1 or 2.
Lem hears the clarion call of Cayden's trumpets calling them to victory. Or perhaps he just stops for a bit of Caydenite sustenance before continuing into the fray. Either way, he is ready for what awaits...
Lem start of turn power: discard Icy Prison to draw Seek Quarry from discards.
Move to: Location #16: Library Scenario Power: On your turn, ... after you move, exchange your current location card with a random card in the demi-plane stack. There is only one card remaining in the demi-plane stack so Library becomes Location #16: Ruin.
Location Power: When a monster is undefeated, shuffle a new monster into the location.
Lem thinks that further research is needed and he heads to the library but wait, what is this?!? The library has been ruined! What madness is this? What depraved villains would desecrate a library like this?!?
Lem begins to look around him but he is so troubled by the anti-bibliophilia of their foes that he finds himself spirally into madness - perhaps Lem once considered a career as a librarian? Perhaps he was expecting to find his latest chart-topping hit in the music section? Or perhaps he simply has outstanding library fines that he has not yet paid. Regardless, the sight of the ruined library pushes him right over the edge!
Send Seek Quarry to Recovery to examine top 5 cards of location: Manananggal, Guardian Zombie, Vortex of Madness trigger!...
Vortex of Madness:
CotCT
Barrier 4
Traits:
Curse
Trigger
To Defeat:
Intelligence

Divine 13
When examined, encounter this barrier.
If undefeated, suffer the scourges Frightened and Wounded, then a random other local character summons and encounters this barrier.
Divine 13, varril, steal soul:1d12 + 6 + 4 + 1d4 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 4 + (4) = 24 Scenario Power: When a bane is defeated and would be banished, recharge it into its location instead: Vortex of Madness is recharged in the location just beneath Emperor Scorpion.
Continuing examination of the location... Mysterious Relic (!), Planar Rift (!). A wealth of choices!!!
Seek Quarry: set aside Mysterious Relic. Shuffle Manananggal, Guardian Zombie, and Planar Rift and recharge them in the location beneath the Emperor Scorpion and the Vortex of Madness.
With his friend Varril's help, Lem recovers his sanity and... there amidst the wreckage and ruins, what is this?!? Lem picks up the ancient and mysterious fragment. It appears that it may be the veritable lute pick of Shelyn herself! Or maybe not. In any case, it's clearly destined for a crate in the Grand Lodge's warehouse and Lem has no intention of surrendering it to anyone!

Mysterious Relic:
Story Bane
Type: Barrier
Traits: Task Veteran
To Defeat: Intelligence Knowledge 4+# OR Perception 6+#
If undefeated, each local character moves to a random location and suffers the scourge Dazed.
Ruin: To close - Summon and defeat the danger. Scenario Power: Each time you encounter the danger, roll 2d6 on the High-Level Story Bane Roster to determine a random bane. Column:1d6 ⇒ 1 Row:1d6 ⇒ 5
Before Lem can leave with his prize, however, he'll have to contend with his arch-nemesis, Togomor, the bloatmage, tone deaf critic for the Absalom Gazette, who has been panning Lem's operas since Lem was only knee-high. Which he still is. But still.
The Danger is TOGOMOR:
STORY BANE
TYPE: MONSTER
Traits: HUMAN, BLOATMAGE
TO DEFEAT:
COMBAT 20
OR
ARCANE 10
POWERS
Before acting, summon and encounter the story bane Diabolical Imp, then each character must succeed at a Dexterity or Acrobatics 13 check or bury a random card and suffer 1d4 Electricity damage.
If defeated by less than 5, or if undefeated, suffer 1d4 Cold damage and shuffle Togomor into a random location.
Before Lem has a chance to recite his latest limericks for Togomor, the noxious critic sends his minion to slip poison into Lem's beer! "I cry foul," cries the bard - "somethings are sacred!"
BA is Diabolical Imp:
STORY BANE
TYPE: MONSTER
Traits: OUTSIDER, DEVIL
TO DEFEAT:
Combat 10
OR
Arcane/Divine 7
POWERS
Immune to Fire and Poison.
Before acting, succeed at a Wisdom or Perception 4 check or this monster is undefeated.
If undefeated, suffer the scourge Poisoned.
Harrow of Crowns: The difficulty of checks against summoned banes is increased by 4. I don't particularly care if I fail the BA check since the only consequence of the Imp being undefeated would be that Lem gets poisoned, which won't matter if we win the game this turn. On the other hand, if the scenario rule about swapping your location card when you don't defeat a bane applies here, then I would definitely not want to fail the BA. In that case I would ask Varril to recharge Phoenix Tail. However, I don't think the location card getting swapped mid-close attempt makes sense or is what is intended, so I'll continue on the assumption that failing to defeat the Imp would not change the current close attempt by virtue of the location card being changed. I'll also post a spoiler for the result with Phoenix Tail if the BR interprets it otherwise. BA Wis 4+4=8, steal soul:1d6 + 1d4 ⇒ (3) + (4) = 7
If BR says that the scenario rule about the location card changing if a bane is undefeated applies in such a way that it would disrupt or alter the current close attempt:
Ask Varril to recharge Phoenix Tail Phoenix Tail addition to the above result:1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Result: if Phoenix Tail was not used, Lem is now poisoned and the scenario rule about the location card getting swapped out when you fail to defeat a bane is invoked, but this does not affect the current close attempt which is already in-progress; the location power is also triggered (I think), causing a new monster to be shuffled into the location. If Phoenix Tail was used then Lem is not poisoned and the location card is not swapped.
Harrow of Crowns: The difficulty of checks against summoned banes is increased by 4. Divine 7+4=11, steal soul, varril:1d12 + 6 + 4 + 1d4 ⇒ (9) + 6 + 4 + (1) = 20 The imp is defeated (unless the BA check prevented that); in either case it does no damage to Lem.
Lem hurriedly teaches the imp to never ever NEVER poison someone's beer, and then turns back to deal with his foe. But Togomor has not been idle! Bolts of lightning are flying everywhere, threatening to electrocute Lem and his friends. "No, no, I tell you! This is an opera, not a rave! How many times do we have to go over this?"
Back to the Togomor's BA...then each character must succeed at a Dexterity or Acrobatics 13 check or bury a random card and suffer 1d4 Electricity damage. Harrow of Crowns: The difficulty of checks against summoned banes is increased by 4. Ask Skizza to discard Blessing of the Everbloom to double bless. Ask Varian to recharge Giant Form Dex 13+4=17, steal soul:1d8 + 2 + 2d8 + 1d4 + 1d4 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 2 + (4, 1) + (3) + (1) + 1 + 4 = 24
Skizza, Varian, Varril, and Brielle all need to make a Dex/Acrobatics 17 check or bury a random card and suffer 1d4 electricity dmg. I'll need one of Varian's spells for the check vs Togomor so Varian please save one for me - thx.
Despite Lem's entreaties, the bloatmage seems convinced that a rave is what is needed and the spirals of electricity are everywhere, in hideous neon. Lem knows he had better act fast to put an end to the party before it gets out of hand!
Lem's attempt to defeat Togomor!:
Harrow of Crowns: The difficulty of checks against summoned banes is increased by 4. Ask Varian to recharge one of his spells (either level 5 or 6) Arcane 10+4=14 (19), steal soul:1d12 + 6 + 1d4 + 1d4 + 1 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 6 + (1) + (2) + 1 + 5 = 16+1 more if Varian recharged a level 6 spell hour power: discard Toff to reroll d12 Arcane 14 (19):15 + 1d12 ⇒ 15 + (9) = 24 Togomor is defeated.

When Varril avenges Lem's encounter with the Emperor Scorpion it is recharged into the location (I don't think anything about Seek Quarry interferes with this) beneath Ossuary Cell 13.
Resuming my turn - I have examined the top 2 cards of Ossuary (now Cell) as part of Seek Quarry...

Cannot be evaded. Before acting, a local character summons and encounters the danger. The difficulty to defeat is increased by the number of locations.
Pausing turn for Varian to do the BA vs the danger. Lem can recharge one Blessing of Abadar for Lem-aid and - if needed - also bury another Blessing of Abadar to bless the check. Note that Harrow of Crowns will increase the difficulty vs the danger by 4. Also note that if any damage occurs, Mist Horn is in effect.

During Lem's turn, Lem recharged a card for Lem-aid for Skizza. Realistically, this would definitely have been Venster Arabasti (and, conveniently, that makes hand reconstruction not too difficult). This means that when I had to reset my hand after the encounter with Sayona I would have drawn one additional card: Blessing of Abadar 2. This also means that I would not have been able to draw The Tyrant from the hourglass discard pile, which has no real effect on the board, but means that I remove The Tyrant from my hand and my deck. Finally, the recharged Venster would have been shuffled back into my deck when I healed myself on Brielle's turn; since Venster was one of the cards that was healed then, a different card would have been healed: randomly it is... Dominate.
If Brielle also wants Lem-aid for her Fort/Con check Lem would have recharged The Dance. That recharged card would have later been shuffled into the deck when I healed on Brielle's turn, so the only practical impact now would be to add another card to my hand to replace The Dance from when I reset my hand.

After Varian defeats the Ash Giant, Lem displays Steal Soul.
I posed a question in Discord. Depending on the answer Lem could take the Dust encounter with the Warlord Devil and cast his own Dominate to get another boon from the location (which also has the benefit of allowing him to redraw Dominate at the start of his own turn). Waiting on the answer to the Discord question.
Starting location: Lem prefers to be with Varril. If I'm reading the scenario power correctly, when Varril attempts to move to Manor he'll actually be moved to a random location in the demiplane? If that's correct, perhaps he just wants to start at the Manor and take the penalty from Harrow of Keys? Since Varril will go before Lem, Lem will start at whatever location Varril intends to end his turn at.

Since Lem is alone at Pits (and I'm assuming we are going to try to stay separated due to the risk of Plague), I will not play Divine Fortune.

Update, per discussion in Discord: Lem will plan to play Holy Feast after Varril's move step, giving anyone who needs it the chance to move to Pits before that for 3 cards healing. Of course it can also be played sooner if need be (e.g. if Varian can't wait until after his turn) and then redrawn to play on Lem's next turn.

Also, note that Lem only wants a Blessing 1 for one of his upgrades and I think we had a Blessing 1 in our regular pool. So that might make another of the Blessing 6 cards available for others.
Despite the wealth of Blessing 6s available, Lem still just wants a Blessing 3 and a Blessing 1 (as a bonus upgrade) for his card upgrades. Nothing useful to spend a Blessing 6 (or 5 or 4) on.
1. Draw a blessing to add to the upgrade pool (@Dinketry, do you want to do this for us or should we do it ourselves?).
2. Spend Hero Point on Skill Feat (#7) to increase Dex by +1 (Dex is now D8+2). Lem now has 3 xp at Tier 6 and a balance of 2 hero points remaining.
3. Upgrades (including a bonus upgrade) - Lem is interested in a Blessing 3 upgrade AND a Blessing 1 upgrade and not really anything else. (If no Blessing 3 is available then he is interested in two Blessing 1 upgrades, replacing Healing Light below with something else).
Blessing 3:1d1000 ⇒ 410Replace Prayer with the Healing Light. Blessing 1:1d1000 ⇒ 785Replace Sands of the Hour with The Dance
4. Loot: Lem would like to continue using the same loot as before (Soothing Word from Dragon's Demand, Darb Tuttle, and - possibly - Urgathoa's Gluttony). If he receives two Blessing upgrades then he will no longer want to take Urgathoa's Gluttony, so that would be available if anyone else wants it. In addition, Lem is very interested in taking the Staff of Greater Necromancy. If he gets it, he'll swap out Holy Water for it. In case anyone else also wants it:
Staff of Greater Necromancy:1d1000 ⇒ 939

After playing this weapon, you may not play an Offhand boon this encounter.
Str 15:1d4 ⇒ 2banished
Lem finds a powerful weapon, but it is clearly not halfling-sized! Grumbling about the prejudices of the local weaponsmiths, he continues on his way.
Discard Recharge (due to Darb Tuttle's power) Darb Tuttle to explore. The card is Sadomasochism, but Varian already has this as a Loot card so instead drawing Random Spell 1 - nope, this is Safe Haven, which Lem banished on turn 1, Random Spell 2: Divine Blaze (Lem already has this spell, but as part of his own deck, so I think that's not a problem...)

Location Card 4 is Ember Ghoul:

After acting, each local character must succeed at a Constitution or Fortitude 8 check or bury the top card of their deck.
Unfortunately, Dominate won't work on this and although I have plenty of combat options to defeat it, the AA will be bad for both Lem and Varian - would prefer to at least have Divine Fortune going. Choose not to encounter it.
