A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 5–9.

For years a Pathfinder team has surveyed Qadira’s Zho Mountains in an attempt to reconcile its twisting valleys with a series of old maps recovered years ago on the Silken Way. When the team disappears soon after reporting a strange illusory effect in a mountain pass, the Society sends the PCs—funded by an unusual benefactor—to uncover whatever is hidden in those peaks and rescue the agents.

Content in “Valley of Veiled Flame” also contributes directly to the ongoing storylines of the Liberty’s Edge and Silver Crusade factions.

Written by Nathan King.

This scenario is designed for play in Pathfinder Society Organized Play, but can easily be adapted for use with any world. This scenario is compliant with the Open Game License (OGL) and is suitable for use with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game.

Out of character for PFS

1/5 —

I ran this last night, and was disappointed with it. The adventure had potential, and maybe I made some mistakes running it.
The setting was interesting and the structure seemed fun, except...

Spoiler:

The adventure assumes that the PCs will walk into the Crystalcrag and immediately, with no prompting, want to overthrow the ruler of the city.
There are too many adventures where the PCs have to deal with horrible people in positions of power. This has trained the players - even members of Liberty's Edge or Silver Crusade - that they are not to overthrow the current authority in an area unless explicitly prompted to do so.
In this adventure, there is no-one who would suggest the PCs overthrow Tygora.

The problem with the motive in this adventure meant that when I ran it, the PCs immediately went off the rails. It got to the point where I had to explain the central conceit of the adventure, and the session was an utter failure. I will certainly never run this adventure again.

"For years a Pathfinder team has surveyed Qadira’s Zho Mountains in an attempt to reconcile its twisting valleys with a series of old maps recovered years ago on the Silken Way."

Good. Now you just need to populate the encounters with Western Katapeshi Gnolls, feature Irskin Jaiorass and perhaps have a few gobbos along for old time's sake.

This will end well..

Sounds like it has definite connections to Murder on the Silken Caravan and possible connections to Citadel of Flame(?).

Without spoiling anything, I can say that this has connections to Murder on the Silken Caravan but not Citadel of Flame , however, the latter and this scenario are in fairly close proximity to each other.

"NO!!! I'm never going back to Qadira! Having been born and raised there, I probably know the Zho Mountains better than any Pathfinder, but I don't care. The humans in that country to enslave genies and genie-kin like me, and it's just awful. That's why I left!"

You're more than welcome to come work for me at my home in Cheliax. You can work in the stables with my Shoanti slaves. The pay is...well, nonexistent, but offers a friendly atmosphere.

GM note about area E8:
Someone recently pointed out that the throne room is missing a map tag for the traps. I have submitted a revision, but in the meantime know that the traps are 10-by-10-foot squares that fan out to either side of the throne (two to a side).

loved this scenario, was trying to post on product review. this was great,

Ran this last week at FLGS. Had a ball pulling out some of my minis that I have rarely used. Everyone had blast with the combats. I didn't have a problem getting buy in from the players to do well you know what they had to do.

They weren't even upset they only got 1 prestige.

And I am going to run it at FLGS # 2 in a week or so.... for a different crowd. I am actually excited to run this a second time.

#1 the Chronicle made me laugh Tiers 1-2 and 8-9 *chuckle*

#2

Spoiler:
The Sidebars for E1 and E2 Mention 5 Tasks

I have found 4 of the tasks ... but cannot find the 5th or even reference to a possible Fifth in the Text Leading to the assult

Task 1 - Convince Eurdan Stonemantle to fully Commit
Task 2 - get the Drunken Oreads Support
Task 3 - Successfully reducing the ifrits’ supply of weapons by any 1 of the ways in the forge
Task 4 - prevent the shop’s complete destruction and defeat the ifrits

whats the 5th one Mentioned in the sidebar or is this simply an editing error

it is mentioned int the scaling the encounter that if you only have 4 players to add 1 success to the total

Sovereign Court

We had an Inquisitor with the right faction, but my Rogue had Diplomacy and we both spoke infernal after a few rounds of "translation" and me improving / changing the inquisitor's story ans ad libbing from Les Miserabes we had the table rolling on the floor.

The DM said wow.

Valley of Veilded Flame:
It is not obvious, but the scenario gives them plus one to the tasks completed on the four person adjustment.So if your group completes all four tasks then you get four plus one leading to and adjustment of five
