Pathfinder Bounty #20: Burden in Bloodcove

I recently GM'd this scenario.

It is a new experience to take on a job from the Aspis Consortium, a villain I have missed.
I had a lot of fun explaining Bloodcove, where the story takes place, as well as the contents of the Source book as more information is available in the Mwangi Expance.I particularly liked the culinary commentary, so I inserted a scene of dinner at the market at night before meeting the client at the bar.

The NPCs are also fascinating and I hope they will appear somewhere in the future as new Aspis Consortium characters!

The first encounter took the Barbarian down in one turn, but it was generally a nice, balanced encounter; an enemy with a reasonable AC and high power and HP is a creature that both PL and GM can have fun beating up on.

The final encounter is also well situational, but a bit too complicated in some areas to do.
I think that increasing the number of skills that can be used to disable the device by one or two would be just fine, as it would give more options. And the barrels could have been interesting with the ability to punch additional barrels after they are no longer spraying oil.

Overall it was a great adventure. I would love to see the author write other scenarios!
