Greetings,
small request, can a few of you show the Shadow Lodge in a good light? I'm almost ashamed to be part of a group filled which such slime-balls that the chillaxan's are starting to look saintly in comparison.
thank you for your time

That largely depends on what you consider to be a good light. Are we fully aligned with the goals of the greater Society? Of course not, we have our own agenda. That occasionally relies on some skullduggery. I would argue, though, that it's not nearly as bad as the treatment that Osirion, Qadira, Cheliax or Sczarni gets.

Seriously? while I understand that due to our mission we must work from the shadows..
But seeing a member of the Shadow Lodge (not PC) do something for the good of the Society... would be a change of paste

I'm going to point out here, that Chelaxians have a fair amount of difference between themselves and the ilk of the Shadow Lodge - for very obvious reasons.
Chelaxians are all about order.
Shadow Lodge Faction members are typically watch dogs - they're in it to make sure the Decemvirate doesn't overstep their boundaries and begin sending pathfinders to their doom over something that may not be worth it.
Granted, this involves a fair amount of shady activity. But in the end; here's the question you need to ask yourself Nunspa; Are you fighting for the good of the society as a whole? Or are you fighting for the good of the pathfinders who truly make up the society's influence?
If your answer is the second, you're a member of the Shadow Lodge, and that's a noble goal in and of itself. If your answer is the former, then you're a member of the Grand Lodge, at the end of the day - it's two sides of the same coin, essentially fighting for the same thing; though one faction (Grand Lodge) is more about completing excess tasks for the Decemvirate, where as the other is about the wellbeing of your fellow pathfinders... Not everyone has the same methods as you do; or views for that matter. That's something you have to accept.
Go forth in shadow or in Light my friend,
The Pathfinder Society needs you to watch out for your fellow pathfinders.
shadow lodge = pathfinder society union.And lemme tell ya, you don't wanna mess with the guys who negotiated a fifteen-minute working day.
lol....... classic

3x6=18 dead :p
most of the Qadiran ones' seems pretty reasonable IMO, sure there is some seflishness....but we're a selfish trade nation what do you expect?
Cheliax... well most of the time zarta is alright, but she can be petty and that can get people killed.
Osisrian is much like the grand lodge, they really just are hyper curious.
I can't get myself into playing a shadowlodge PC though, when I first started playing we were running a bunch of season 2 adventures that had to do with stopping the "Evil shadow lodge" so I'll always think of them as those evil bastards tarnishing the name of the Pathfinder society for their own ends.

I suspect the OP is referring to both the Season 2 scenarios, and the Season 3 & 4 scenarios dealing with the "rogue" Shadow Lodge cells.
I think all he is really asking for is for a non-rogue Shadow Lodge group to show up, on occasion, and show that NPC Shadow Lodge members don't all have to be evil minions of the Spider...

^^^ This!
Even as a member I would like a chance to....ummmm....replace some of the leadership.

Do you want to be shown in a good light? Are you sick of faction fighting? Do you refuse to be the puppet of a nation state?
Join the Silver Crusade! We just want to help people, and the society is the mode for that goal.
“Do you know of the Silver Crusade? After discovering so many factions splintered the Society, a number of us banded together to proliferate the cause of charity and kindness using the Society’s resources.
I just have trouble with the mental gymnastics involved in the Silver Crusade.
"The Pathfinder Society is too fractured with factions, so we created a faction to do good within the Pathfinder Society."I'm sorry, that logic, if you want to call it that, hurts my head.
