I am running a first level game that takes place in Absalom with the following PCs.
CN Fetchling Bard who is a professional storyteller
CN Goblin Rogue who masquerades as gnome but still acts like a goblin yet hates them. Motivated by pretty things and pink things.
CG Half Orc fighter whose great joy is getting attacked and not falling down
CG Catfolk sorc, aquatic bloodline with scent and a climb speed and motivated by shiny.
NG Assimer Cleric of Desnia with wings (randomly rolled)
All PCs have darkvision or scent and all speak Orc.
I know it is an odd group and I would say comedy is great diver of RP so far but only 1 session under out belt. I am running them through Master of the fallen fortress and intend for them to become pathfinders but i am not sure witch adventures would be a good fit. I am not opposed to travel if that fits with the story. I think with a this menagerie the harbengers might take and interest but i am not sure where to go with that.

Hmmm... If they become Pathfinders, then that opens up a lot of possibilities. They obviously don't qualify for organized play, but you can run them through scenarios anyway. (There's also a new, even-shorter thing called quests, starting with Ambush in Absalom.) Quite a few scenarios are set in Absalom since that's where the Society is based, right from the very beginning -- scenario #1 of season 0 -- and the Blakros Museum arc (starting with scenario #5) looks like fun. The tricky parts would be figuring out how much XP to reward, and of course converting any old ones from OGL to PFRPG.

Thanks for the advice, i was think that as well. I know that they are not organized play legal but this is just a once a month game. I have them on the fast track so they can see more levels sooner. My problem is that I can not seam to find a clear list of all the society adventures that links them in arcs and whatnot. Thanks for the ling to the season thing though that seams like a start. Also not sure what to do with factions in a home game and how to introduce them. If i am going to run the scenarios what should I read to get the most out of it. Is the first steps stuff any good? Sorry for rambling.

I'm halfway through the First Steps as PbP, and they could be very comical with that group. (But for the children's home in Part I, make sure that anyone who can't go in knows that they don't have to stand around twiddling their thumbs.)
I know that there are connected scenarios, but don't know of any good list of story arcs; maybe I should make one?
Your group has enough going on that I think you could safely ignore factions. I'd basically treat them all as Grand Lodge, unless someone actually wants to be a different one.
