Anyone have suggestions for a module progression that would take PFBB characters from 1st to 5th level, ideally with PFS credit?
I used to run Pathfinder, but the high crunch level and the 2-hour prep times for 4 hour sessions (reading and creating maps for PFS scenarios) turned my group off of Pathfinder. But, I bought the Beginner Box, and my son was so intrigued (he's 17) that he's wanting to resume play.
(Aside: Kudos to Pathfinder to creating a product which produces such interest from kids!)
So, I'm trying to figure out the best module path for our new PFBB characters.
As mentioned in this thread, Crypt of the Everflame is a logical next choice. Crype of the Everflame has two sequals, but there is an XP gap as I recall, so any suggestions on other existing modules I could run to get us to 5th level?
Ideally all the modules we run good get us PFS credit so by the time we're at 5th level, it's all with PFS XP so we can use these characters at Society events.
Or perhaps this isn't practical, and we need a separate set of characters for PFS, and we'd start with non-PFS adventures, then just over to PFS with new characters? Is that a better strategy?

Beginner Box PCs need to be adjusted before they are valid for Pathfinder Society play. PFS uses a 20-point purchase for ability scores. The Beginner Box has players roll 4d6 (dropping the lowest d6) to generate 6 scores to arrange in any order. The Beginner Box pregens are built on a 15-point purchase.
I believe the PFS campaign staff is working on a conversion sheet for Beginner Box PCs so they can join the campaign, but they will need to start as new level 1 PCs.
