Fun PFS Scenarios to play during Pride?

[OnlyAlexB]

It's Pride Month. As a welcoming Forever-GM/Ally, thinking of running some LGBTQIA+ friendly scenario at the local table. Any suggestions?

If you're looking for direct representation
5-02 The Blackwood Lost,
4-10 Arclord's Abode, 4-17 Trapping the Hag's Claw
3-02 The East Hill Haunting
and multiple Series 2 Quests (Q14 Swordlord's Challenge, Q16 Winter Queen's Dollhouse, Q18 Student Exchange, and Q20 Dacilane Academy's Show Must Go On) have interactions with NPCs of the LBGTQIA+ population. Some of these more direct than others, and I'm sure I've missed quite a few.

Safa adventures tend to be good for this. Safa is genderfluid and their adventures are usually a lot of fun. They also have themes of throwing off oppression throughout. The main villain also fits the theme; to quote Bestiary 3, they "might rant about a target, building a pretense of some vague threat the target poses to the community's social order".

In addition to Safa themself, #3-12 Fury's Toll has another genderfluid character whose gender presentation is a minor topic of discussion during the party. The follow-up, #4-14 Shattering Golden Chains has several queer major and minor characters. If the players are successful in one portion of the adventure, there's a nice moment between Safa and their nonbinary friend. If you want the full arc, #3-08 Foundation's Price goes before the other two and introduces Safa.

The talking skull adventures are also great options. The main character is a trans woman currently inhabiting a magic skull. The adventures provide numerous skull puns and encourage you to include your own.

You meet her in the intro to year 4, but she's only a small part of that adventure. #4-05 The Arclord Who Never Was has you tracking down her memories. There's a really great conversation with a golem she created, where the golem says he'd recognize her no matter what form she takes. #4-10 Arclord's Abode centers around the skull's research into true names (an obvious but effective theme) with a satisfying finale.

Any adventure featuring J Dacilane. Though unless you met him back in first edition, you might not even realize he's transmasc.

I think it's surprisingly tough to have a scenario with queer themes--for one thing, unlike most forms of story, the writers don't get to write the protagonists or even know who they are.

But there are plenty that prominently feature queer NPCs.

Anything featuring Safa or J. Dacilane, as mentioned. And here are a few others I remember:

Scenario #3-02: The East Hill Haunting
Scenario #4-03: Linnorm's Legacy
Scenario #4-07: A Most Wonderful Exchange!
Scenario #5-02: The Blackwood Lost
Scenario #6-00: Salt of the Ocean
Bounty #3: Shadows and Scarecrows

J is easily among my favorite recurring NPCs from 1E. Way back when the first Dacilane Academy adventure was announced, our local group was still playing 1E often enough that I ran the scenarios that J first appeared in to provide more context for anyone meeting (or running) him in 2E. (Because J's gender presentation shifts over the course of that arc, I asked for a reality check from a trans/NB friend to make sure my pronoun use would be appropriate for each stage of his story.)

Also of note, the Academy's students include one each of genderfluid and nonbinary named characters. It makes for an interesting bit of color, but is never the primary thing defining the character's role in the story.
