A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 5–9.

The Lands of the Linnorm Kings derive its name from its leaders, each of who can rule after slaying one of the massive, draconic linnorms that inhabit the region. Centuries ago, when a warrior set out to slay a dragon of her own and carve out a kingdom, she returned not with a linnorm's head but that of the local linnorm king. The lone witness insisted she had used ice magic and Irriseni witchcraft to kill the king, an accusation that led to the warrior's execution. It's said that even today, the so-called Jarlsblood Witch prowls the land and snatches up lone travelers.

Not all believe these tales, most notably the warrior's descendants. One serves as a member of Taldor's Ulfen Guard and has contacted the Society to make a deal: exonerate his defamed ancestor in exchange for intelligence that could shape Taldor's future and avert a disaster. It's up to the PCs to embark into the frozen Lands of the Linnorm Kings to solve an ancient murder mystery, though there's far more at stake than honor.

Contents in The Jarlsblood Witch Saga also contribute directly to the ongoing storyline of the Sovereign Court faction. This is one of several scenarios that also set the stage for and directly tie into the upcoming War for the Crown Adventure Path.

Written by Nathan King.

Very cool scenario!

4/5

Ran this with a party of 4 in High-Tier. Lots of good role play opportunities, a wonderful amount of story and lore that the players get to find out, and what an amazing set of encounters. Would definitely recommend playing/running this scenario.

I know a certain Ulfen barbarian that is in tier for this...

I have a level 6 Ulfen PC from the Land of the Linnorm Kings who NEEDS to play in this one. Bigotry against witchcraft is a major theme for her.

Spoiler:
She's a witch but refuses to admit it, tricking her family and friends into thinking she's a wizard. She really does study magic so she can return on day to help fight against the evil witches from Irrisen, just like she told her family. But the fact that her power comes from a patron familiar, rather than just studying spellbooks, is a source of great shame for her.

I've got just the thing.

Now that there's a product page for this, could we please see what flip-mats and map packs the scenario uses?
Thanks.

Maps in Pathfinder Society Scenario #9–11: The Jarlsblood Witch Saga:

There is one half-page custom map in this scenario. This scenario also makes use of:

  • Pathfinder Flip-Mat: Cavernous Lair (such a versatile map—an especially good one to buy since we're likely to use this much more in the future)
  • Pathfinder Flip-Mat: Winter Forest

    Thanks, John! I was just about to ask for this. :-)

    I am sad . . . my BrawlBarOradin (Brawler Oracle Paladin Ulfen Guard) is one level too high . . .

    Sounds like he's the perfect level for a different scenario that's coming out in January, then (pending the imminent appearance of new product pages).

    Noticed the armor in the chronicle sheet that the armor reward in 8-9 is incorrect. Both the 5-6 and 8-9 state +1 armor, but the 8-9 is +2 armor. Even the price is wrong. It's just a straight copy and paste.
