Has anyone taken a group of PCs through the 3 years of training from Initiate to field agent mentioned in Seekers of Secrets book? Actually done details on the classes, teachers, ect?
I am about to send three PCs to Absalom to do that very thing, but was hoping someone had done it already and posted it someplace so I might borrow bits to speed up my workload for getting that part of the game set up.

No responses? I'm a little surprised, I thought RPing the Pathfinder training school stuff would appeal to a lot of GMs. Sort of like a Hogwart's type of thing, but more serious.
Failing that, any suggestion on how to run the three years of training if I wanted to make them more then just a story background element?

Training is very much a backstory type activity. Makes for a good novel, but a rather dull game for the people sitting around the table. I suspect that's why you're not getting a lot of responses.
Playing out an occasional session of training in order to advance the plot, I can see ... but playing out 3 years of training? Yikes.

I guess it depends on how you ran it. I had in mind some intro stuff, and then lots of skipping over time with scattered training related adventures mixed in, so when the PCs are finished they feel they really took part in something during those three years.
