Foreword: I will be honest with you, I want to run this because I got bored after most Outpost games have wind down, and my new PbP games are slow to start.....and instead of praying that someone is willing to GM something I need, I decided take matter into my own hand and run my own game! Level 1 of Emerald Spire has truly being done to death, so I figured I try out something less commonly run -- sanctioned lv1 AP portion, and here we are.
We will be playing only the sanctioned portion of this AP volume (part 1 & part 2) in standard/PFS mode, which means you have to bring a legal lvl 1~2 PFS character. This adventure is replayable for free for level 1 character. I do not have the GM capacity to start another full AP at the moment, sorry.
Player Expectation: This would be a extremely combat heavy adventure. There will be two 'dungeons' that you need to clear out, with time to rest and recover between. If you are looking for a lot of roleplaying , then this adventure is probably not for you, since whatever buried under Osirion sand are not very talkative and probably want to kill you.
Due to the comparatively high amount of encounters, I would prefer to maintain a decent, constant pace for the game. I would expect a minimum of 1 post daily during the weekday, and 1 post throughout the weekend. That being said, real life comes first. If you know you are expecting IRL busy time or is travelling, just let us know ahead of time so I can BOT you. And there will probably be some unexpected event that might hinder or delay your daily participation of the game. If 24h+ hours have passed since its your turn to act in combat and it's not an predetermined absence, I will either delay or BOT you to the best of my ability to help your team to success.
Being too tired from work/baby/saving the world IS a valid reason to ask for BOTTING and time off as well. We all have that kind of days sometime.
At the time of posting, ‘Eκάτη, Gerald, Pete H, and I'm Hiding In Your Closet expressed interest in playing in Flaxseed Lodge's recruitment thread, so you all got a seat! One seat will be reserved for my friend Evan, and hopefully we can get another player for a full team of six.
Once you've selected the character you want to use, please provide the following information for reporting and chronicle purposes :
Character Name:
Player Name: (as you want it on the Chronicle Sheet)

Day Job:
Hello all, Pete H. here and ready to delve a couple dungeons!
I will be using a new lvl one PC for this. Thus I will see what all we have and then what all we need. If no one is bringing a healer, I could do a life oracle. Or a disabler if we don’t have a rogue. Or something crazy!!!
I’ll fill out my info soon, once I have figured out my character name and faction.

I'd like to join the party! :-D
Character Name: Newt Lopo
Player Name: Chris N. aka kaervek78
Character Level: 1 (2 XP)
PFS Number: 331079-9
Faction: Grand Lodge
Day Job: none
Normal Progression
Newt Lopo is a heavily armored stoic oread fighter who looks like an ugly statue (he has very low Cha).
He already owns a wand of CLW... and will also be able to use it once he gets his cleric mojo running at level 2!
He can climb and swim, he's quite perceptive for a fighter and he knows a bit about dungeoneering.
Shopping for another wand and other equipment will be done soon-ish.

kaervek78, welcome! That should complete the team of 6, if all those that expressed interest in the Flaxseed lodge join us.
Evan is looking to bring a melee occultist, FYI.

This is Gerald. Not sure when we plan on starting, but I have a level one grippli monk that is getting close to finishing up a Gameday scenario. If we don’t start for a few days, I’d love to bring him.
I’ll make this post under his alias. If I don’t finish’s in time, I have a level two shaman I could bring.

Hopefully you mean Outpost scenario because Gameday was... ...more than 6 months ago. And yes we can wait a few days, other people need to figure out their characters too, and I need to prep the map. Since I got VTT games Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday, chances are I won't have time to do so till Sunday, and the soonest we can start is next week already.

Thank you for your interest in joining the game and for submitting your character. However, after reviewing your character sheet, I found a number of issues—both mechanical and compliance-related—that unfortunately make this character ineligible for Pathfinder Society play. Additionally, the game is currently full, with one seat reserved for another player (‘Eκάτη), so I won’t be able to accept your application at this time.
To provide clarity and help you in future games, here are some of the concerns I found:
Class Inconsistency: You listed the character as an Investigator (Level 2), but also marked Cleric in the Classes/Level field.
Height: The character's height is listed as 8'3", which far exceeds the maximum height for a female Aasimar (base 5'0" + 2d8", so max 6'4").
Stat Array: Your ability scores suggest a 16-point buy, but PFS uses a 20-point buy system.
Saving Throws: The Reflex save doesn't match expected values. If the character is a Cleric, a +1 base Reflex save implies level 3, which is out of range for a level 1–2 adventure. If an Investigator, the base Reflex should be +2.
HP System: Pathfinder Society does not use the Wounds and Vigor optional rules.
Gender and heritage Conflicts: The character description refers to a male Garuda-Blooded Aasimar, but the gender and ability score modifiers suggest a different heritage.
Weight: The listed "Wright" (assumed to be "Weight") doesn't align with the height and racial norms. For example, a male Aasimar at 5'8" should weigh around 140 lbs based on the standard formula.
Illegal Racial Abilities: The 20 ft fly speed and other variant Aasimar abilities are not legal in PFS.
Trait Violations: You listed more than two traits, and some traits (e.g., Rich Parents, Sacred Touch) are not legal for PFS play or are duplicated within the same trait category.
Starting Gold: PFS characters begin with 150 gp, not 300 gp.
Given the number of issues and what appears to be a lack of experience with Pathfinder Society rules, I don’t believe this game is the right fit at this time. I recommend reviewing the Pathfinder Society Roleplaying Guild Guide and perhaps starting with a local or online game specifically for newer players, where there’s more room for guidance and rules discussion.
Best of luck, and I hope you enjoy many great adventures in Pathfinder Society!
I posted the wrong PC sorry.
She should be an elf, from a made convection PC back in 2022
Dont know why its not the same one,.
I DMed ‘Eκάτη on paizo forum but hear no response, and I can't find any other way of contacting him. I will close the recruitment and get the game started. Don't worry, AP are designed for 4 players, and you have 5.
Ryan Damphir, Ouita Shelbourne, Jezebel Gemblade, Angus Kilkenny, Newt Lopo, you can dot in (if youo haven't done so), and upload your token to slide no.2 and fill in the roll marco there with your Perception, Initiative, and saving throws. Most of you have played my PbP game and it shouldn't be new to you.
I'm sorry, it's been a very difficult week and I haven't been on the forum at all. If there is another slot, I am ready to join from Sunday.
Yes, there's a slot for you! Welcome.
Thank you very much!
