For those who have not noticed, they put what they are calling an Offical PFS "Quest" in the latest Kobold Quarterly.

You get a Chronicle Sheet with a Boon each time you play it as a player and run it as a GM. Though I am trying to track down the chronicle sheets. Question for mark, are these reportable? or are they like the Pathfinder Tales Chronicle Sheets?

Quest Rules wrote:

Pathfinder Society Quests are brief adventures consisting of two to three encounters designed for use in the Pathfinder Society Organized Play campaign by Paizo Publishing. A legal Pathfinder Society PC may receive a Chronicle for completing a Quest as many times as he completes it, and a game master may likewise apply a Chronicle to any of his characters when running a Quest. Each Quest Chronicle grants a single-use boon or ability, each of which may be played once per scenario.

This official Pathfinder Society adventure is made available here as a Kobold Quarterly exclusive, and all Golarion references are used by kind permission of Paizo Publishing.

So now we have 4 ways to get a Chronicle sheet.

I see the pdf for PFS is on the product page, but it doesn't look like it's been added to additional resources page, yet. Are y'all still planning to do so?

Has anyone played this yet? Is it 4 hours or is it a short quest? The reason I ask, is I got a group that has about 2-3 hours of play time once a week that if it is a short quest would fit perfectly into our schedule. Something to fill the void between monthly gaming sessions.

This is only two brief encounters and should take less than two hours. Quests are intended to be run in a shorter time than a scenario such as an in-store demo or to fill time after a TPK or early completion of a full scenario at a convention.

Thanks Mark, this will be perfect for my group.

Great idea, Mark.

It looks like the map included is from one of the map packs. I'm assuming it's from "Sewers"?

It's actually from Ambush Sites. The tags layer of the map was unfortunately omitted from the final image, so the specific tags and callout of source weren't included.

Hey, I have that one! Thanks again.

So is that map supposed to be the site for both combats in the quest?

Yes.

Spoiler:

The first combat takes place in the north-center of the map, the trap being centered on the four squares where the three pieces of paper lie in the muck. The kobolds should attack from the closest drainage tunnels.

The second encounter takes place in the lower right side of the map, where the eastern tunnel continues on off the edge of the map.

I'll see if we can get a tagged version of the map up either here or at KQ so people can see where stuff is supposed to go down.

Awesome. Either way, youve likely sold a tile pack thing for me so I can use it for this.

I have been looking for this stuff since it has been announced. I've been looking in additional resources. Will mention of it be going in there?

Yes. We've got another update to the Additional Resources page scheduled for later this week when April subscriptions go out, and instead of making a series of little changes,we

re just doing one big batch. It's easier to update the page once and send out just one email than flood players' inboxes with a bunch of little updates.
