TL;DR: I'm writing a 4-chapter adventure path that takes the players from level 1 to 12 and, as the title implies, down through the Darklands in a tour of each level of the subterranean world of Golarion, and I'm making it available as I go!
Down Through the Darklands! is an adventure path for Pathfinder 2e that starts in northeastern Isger, not from where Age of Ashes began, and follows the exploits of a con-gnome turned trading entrepreneur who hires the party to help him discover a passage into the dangerous caverns of Nar-Voth!
There are several books that are a part of this adventure path, including:
- Down Through the Darklands! - Currently just over 100 pages and growing fast, this is the bulk of the adventure and will ultimately contain 4 chapters, each with 3 sections. There is a milestone level at the start of each section. It also contains a wealth of NPCs, hazards and variant rules! The first 4 sections (including all of chapter 1: Nar-Voth) are currently written!
- Down Through the Darklands Player’s Guide - Lots of info about who the PCs might be and what classes and ancestries and backgrounds will work well or poorly in this campaign.
- Overview of the Darklands in Golarion: Pathfinder’s Underground Lands - Mostly an index of the published materials on the Darklands, but with a few summary blurbs. Essentially my own research notes in writing this adventure path.
- The Dangers of Northeastern Isger - Some info about the region and its difficulties including new rules for diseases and random encounter tables for levels 1-4.
- New and Old Hazards and Traps for Pathfinder 2e - A truly massive effort to create dozens of new Hazards that can be scaled to any level, many of which have a dizzying array of variations! All told, there are literally thousands of traps that you can use based on the rules, here!
- Down Through the Darklands Bestiary - Some variants, conversions and new creatures for any Darklands campaign.
See my most recent status report on reddit... (note that that posting says chapter 4 needs treasure and downtime activities, but that's done now).
I should also point out that Ryan Sigler (ig:Rpsigler) has been volunteering some art for the project. You can see the splash-page which will also be one of the early encounter maps at the start of the current draft, as an example.
Good to have some free homebrewin', Darklands Downin' stuff out there for PF2e, Tyler_Zoro. ;)
