Vine connoisseur style review.

Skill challenges were simply great.
I think that's one of the best skill challenge concept I have seen in PFS, and I have played at least 50 scenarios.
The structure and general feeling of being covered with hot garlic with licorice trying to prevent kitchen from exploding is perfect.

Lighthearted with small serious notes.

This small adventure is better at plot than strixhaven adventure as a whole. Even though it's a one shot and we were playing 4h I still can remember character details of NPCs and PCs. (which means everyone had a chance to be memorable by design!)

Moneymaker and other references - priceless.
As far as I can guess this adventure can be run with Pathfinder nerds making them make the references of pet owlbears.

Only problem with this adventure is that you feel really good, but than you just want more! You understand that you would have preferred to play it slower like for 8 hours!

Give this author to write a chapter in AP!

I look in aonprd and get confused.
In witch Multiclass dedication, it is noted that you get a witch's familiar.and that: "Your familiar has one less familiar ability than normal." (its not saying that you get a familiar with 1 ability though)
Witches' familiars get extra abilities: "Your patron has sent you a familiar, a mystical creature that teaches you and facilitates your spells. This familiar follows the rules here, though as it's a direct conduit between you and your patron, !!!!it's more powerful than other familiars!!!!. Your familiar gains an extra familiar ability, and gains another extra ability at 6th, 12th, and 18th levels." (as I understand this ones are fixed to familiar not master abilities)
Does wording mean, that witches dedication gives 1 cantrip, (2 in spell book)1 familiar which improves as you level. (2 at 1, 3 at 6lvl, 4 at 12th)?
So compared to other casters you get 1 less cantrip at the start, 1 less skill, spell book vs whole spell list (druid/cleric), no language (druidic) and trade that with a familiar who is leveling up with you?

So, you can read it as familiar with 1 ability, or familiar with 2+ abilities (1+ of which is are fixed as non master abilities).
1 ability is making it lackluster compared to wisdom casters: small prepared spell list which you should pay for, less cantrips and a familiar which is able to do very little, not a good scout, not even okay at anything until you feed it with feats.
