#8-i: Paizo Unchained

[Iammars]

Hello everyone!

It’s April Fools Day! While it is traditional to try to prank someone today, I tend to shy away from that. It’s too easy for pranks to either be lame or mean. Instead, I like to be silly! In that spirit, allow me to present to you Pathfinder Society Scenario* #8-i: Paizo Unchained!

*Not actually a legal Pathfinder Society Scenario. Feel free to play it for fun, but it is not actually part of the PFS campaign.

[Hmm]

Ha! Jen, this is hilarious!

I'm now wondering if we should play it on the train to Paizo Con... The only thing missing is Compton!

Hmm

When I opened this file, Linda was standing behind me and laughing hysterically.

Truth. I love it! Nice work, Jen ^_^

[schattenstern]

VERY nice scenario, but 2 small things:

1.) Where is the chronicle for it?
2.) On the cover there should be an indication that this is subtier 5-9.

[TwilightKnight]

Can't...stop...laughing...

[Rei]

I am very disappointed with this!

Spoiler:

Why does Stephen not have "pig" as a ranged weapon??

[Dominick]

needs more cowbell!

[Draco Bahamut]

Just glad Nicolas Logue don´t work at Paizo´s office. It would be a too scary encounter.

*Smirk*

Nice job, Jen! XD

I regret that I have but one like to give for this post.

WHO IS RUNNING THIS AT PAIZOCON AND HOW CAN I PLAY???

Alternately, I could run it if several of the Paizo staff want to be players. :-D

[MichaelCullen]

The best is Mark's NPC. This brought a smile to my face.

Jen, this is amazing!

Seriously, what would it take to put together a charity auction for one seat as a player at a table of the named characters/staff at Paizo Con?

Would Tonya stand alongside the table Performing (Oratory)?

[Serisan]

The reporting notes definitely sealed the deal here. Great work!

[Iammars]

Well, if someone wanted to play this at Paizocon, they'd need to find someone else to run it, since going to Paizocon isn't that feasible for me.

Rei:

Ah, how could I forget to include the pig as a ranged attack? Let me add those in here.
In subtier 5-6, use: Ranged pig +2 (1d6+2)
In subtier 5-6, use: Ranged pig +5 (1d6+2)

Stephen is not very accurate with the pig, but let's be honest, he's not kicking the pig because he's trying to be accurate. ;)

Oh wow I'd pay serious money to be a part of that!

[Cosmo's Slightly More Evil Twin]

I am pleased.

[Serisan]

This scenario is almost screaming for LARP at PaizoCon. >.>

[John Napier 698]

Jen, this is insanely funny. It actually made me smile. Thank you.

[Sam P 332]

I couldn't believe my eyes when I read that sidebar, Jen. Thank you. That was a really neat moment in a very funny read.

[rknop]

This should be a on-site LARP with "as themselves" actors for NPCs at PaizoCon....

(Especially when John plays both Aram Zey and himself.)

[cartmanbeck]

Seriously though, has anyone put this in to the event submissions yet? Because it really needs to happen, and I would definitely play.

[Iammars]

Sam P - which sidebar are you talking about? I feel like i should know which one you mean but I'm being dumb and can't figure it out. (There's multiple potentially funny sidebars. Or at least snarky.)

[GinoA]

Can us poor midwesterners get a slot run at GenCon?

[Sam P 332]

[snark]I'm hurt, Jen. Wounded, even. Someone get me a cleric. I think I'm taking ongoing bleed damage.

The sidebar on page 9 is practically lifted straight out of our discussion at TotalCon. Here I was, looking back fondly on our time batting gamemastering tips back and forth, but apparently it was all one-sided: just a mere four-star GM getting the privilege to sit for a moment at the cool kids' table, before getting patted on the head and told to run along.

It's OK, though. Better that I find out now.[\snark]

[Iammars]

Oh, right. I have now attached face to name.

Yes, it blatantly came from that discussion. I was replaying it in my head when I was writing it because it really was the best response to non futuristic technology in a PFS Scebario.
