Hunt for Delve Beasties

Grand Lodge 3/5

Greetings all, I've been volunteering my time teaching students at a local middle school how to play tabletop RPG's, with Pathfinder as my go-to.
I've already run them through the Beginner Box and was contemplating how to proceed. I only have half an hour during their lunch breaks; was contemplating running them through the Quests- but may be on a time crunch.
Then a friend recommended run Delves- just an open-ended dungeon run where the players attempt to survive the exploration.

So, I'm looking for recommended GM scenario preps with interesting beasties to throw at the players. CR 3-4 preferred, just to give them a run for their money.
Throwing basic goblins and kobolds and other things at the players seems pretty monotonous, and currently i only have the Bestiary 1.

thanks much.

I would like to suggest Quests even though you are on a half hour time crunch. Each quest takes about 45 minutes to an hour. From what i remember, each individual quest has a few skill checks or roleplaying element leading up to the battle with the baddie in each one. Maybe you could break down each quest into two half-hour sessions.

I'm interested in the Delves you mentioned. Can you post a link, please?

Cheers!

If you want more creature options, right now there’s a Pathfinder Humble Bundle that includes several of the Bestiaries.

Did the Pathfinder Academy material ever become publicly available? It seems like that might also be what you’re looking for.

Delves were just the fifteen minute dungeon runs that were offered at PaizoCon over the years.

Throwing monsters at the students may be more entertaining then having them try to accomplish anything diplomatic. [one of my PC's wanted to steal from Heidmarch, out of the pouch of gems meant to be payment, in one of the beginner box scenarios.]
