Adventure Path


Advice


Hello all,
Just had a fabulous brunch whose conversation focused on dragons. I explained to my friends what I remembered of the Pathfinder dragon lore, and people were enthralled. So I have a handfull of folks who want to play for the first time. I am looking for an adventure path that involves dragons as a result. And involves them early. Like first session or two. Ideally, there should be presence of metallics, because this group loves the idea of "good" dragons.

Any suggestions?

Pathfinder conversion of Red Hand of Doom mayhap. IDK of a specific dragon-focused AP.


There's a silver dragon in the opening scene of Wrath of the Righteous.

The Worldwound Incursion:
Of course, she almost immediately gets decapitated by a demon in a sneak attack. But the PCs find some of her scales, which grant them special powers.

Unfortunately, I don't think dragons play much of a part in the remainder of the AP.

Second Darkness:
The PCs fight some drakes and then a green dragon in book 3, The Armageddon Echo. But again, there's not much more dragon past that.

Silver Crusade

There's The Dragon's Demand module.


I think most APs have at least one dragon to fight, mostly in the later books, but Paizo has intentionally downplayed the public influence of dragons in Golarion.

Guardians of Dragonfall was an early module before Golarion lore was fully set that has a much more prominent role for dragons, but it's for 11th-level characters.

The most prominent metallic dragon in Golarion is in Hermea, but there aren't any published adventures set there that I'm aware of.


Reign of Winter is pretty dragoncentric, with one in book two and another later on.

Iron Gods has a couple, but not until book four (and that one has... issues).

Strange Aeons may or may not, I can't recall...


Thank you guys. It seems funny that there isn't a dragon centric one. I get its a cliche, but its a cliche for a reason. I would love to see one focused heavily on dragon kind. With a group of adventurers getting involved in a battle between chromatic and metallic dragons, etc, etc.


Here is a list of dragons in APs through Skull & Shackles.

Here is Paizo's rationale for why they haven't made a dragon-centric AP.
