Looking forward to it!
Is it just me, but does the pregen Ufi lack a class feat from Natural Ambition? They gain the Deadly Simplicity from the Warpriest doctrine, but Natural Ambition gives nothing.
It looks like you are correct. I was wondering whether he should have had the Skilled heritage, but I can account for all of his skill trainings from class and background.

A question of my own: What is the estimated playing time for this module?
My group has extensive practice with PF1 but no PF2 experience except for very limited participation in the playtest. If I hand them the pregens at the start of the session and proceed from there, how likely is it that we will be done within a hard time limit of 4 hours?

Oops, that's my mistake. I didn't update his ancestry feat when switching him from a cloistered cleric to a warpriest during development. I would swap out Natural Ambition with General Training to give him Fleet.

Good to have some more free Magaambya stuff out there for PF2e. ;)

I'd say you'd be right on the edge of four hours. At my local store, the adventure was run twice. I have minor GM experience but had somewhat experienced players and it took about four hours. The store owner is a much more experienced GM but had new players and it ran more than five hours. Half of the combats can be avoided by gameplay (stealth, diplomacy, etc) and doing so will speed up the game. If you get halfway through and it looks like time may be against you:

Thank you very much! That does help considerably. I was getting the impression that it was closer to a PFS scenario than a bounty in length, and you confirmed it. So now I know that I need to either follow your tips to keep it short or plan on two sessions for it.

Also, It seems his Speed is wrong since he has the strength to not take the penalty.
Otherwise, the adventure is great and I need to eventually write a review.
The Chain Mail still incurs a -5 speed regardless of your Strength. The 16 Strength just allows him to wear it. But the Fleet feat correction should take his speed back to a 25.

This is not correct.
While wearing a suit of armor, you take the penalty listed in this entry to your Speed, as well as to any other movement types you have, such as a climb Speed or swim Speed, to a minimum Speed of 5 feet. If you meet the armor’s Strength threshold (see below), you reduce the penalty by 5 feet.

I stand corrected. His speed should be 30.

Why is this adventure for five characters? That’s never been done by Paizo before, right?
Is that a problem?
I mean, it's good to have an option to play it as 5 pregen characters. If you only got 4 people, use 4 of 5 and maybe adjust the encounters. It isn't hard.
Ufi should get two skills from Cleric (2+int mod, but his int mod is 0). He has three. I left nature out of his list.
I love it when I get a chance to run pregens through Herolab. :-)
BTW, this is the first time I've found the pregens to end up in HLO with their stated cash, given the "book" starting cash. Usually I have to tweak it in HLO. Well done! :-)
Looks like Zane is missing a skill.
