March 10th, 2014, 04:06
A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 1–5.

The Pathfinder Society has discovered the location of a powerful Osirian artifact secreted beneath the sands, but they are not the only ones who seek its power. The Pathfinders must endure the scalding Osirian desert, brave its inhabitants, and watch for hidden dangers if they are to survive. Can the PCs reach the ruins before their rivals claim the prize?

“Race to Seeker’s Folly” is the second scenario in the three-part Destiny of the Sands campaign arc. It follows Pathfinder Society Scenario #5–12: Destiny of the Sands—Part 1: "A Bitter Bargain" and is followed by Pathfinder Society Scenario #5–16: Destiny of the Sands—Part 3: "Sanctum of the Sages." All three chapters are intended to be played in order.

Content in “Race to Seeker’s Folly” also contributes directly to the ongoing storyline of the Osirion faction.

Please sign up on the calendar https://www.fantasygrounds.com/calendar/index.xcp?id=1159 and post your character xml and previous chronicle sheet to this thread. To try and minimize drive-by sign-ups I will accept players once I have all the info I need.
After the session I will ask players to complete and return the pre-chronicle form to me https://www.dropbox.com/sh/eq4s75gjz468vtp/y1ZT3a9p8i , so I can turn your chronicles around quickly.

Im in Skellan,

Supposed to DM an 'in house' PFS game on Wed for some friends, & plan to give the GM chronicle to Kayliss, so she may be 2nd level.

Will post xml & chronicle as soon as i run that.

Hi all. Sorry I can't make an afternoon game...evenings only for me I'm afraid. Shame, but never mind. I'm sure you'll all have more fun without the pesky, goody-goody bard anyway! :)

Skellan

Ok, so far we have:

Trenloe

Lord Kavos

Myrddin, sorry this time isn't good. I pulled the time back as it got a bit rushed last time. Hopefully, doing the chronicles won't be a headache this time. If we have cracked it I will get back to running 1 session plus per week, so I will re-run this scenario n in the future, and you will most probably get chance to play it. Plus, I rather liked your Bard :)

Thanks for the timezone info Trenloe.
Someone else has signed on the calendar but is yet to post on here, so hopefully we have at least 4.

Trenloe
March 10th, 2014, 22:54
Sorry, my info is not the same as last time - I'm level 3 now! :)

I'll get you the XML soon...

Lord Kavos
March 13th, 2014, 02:18
Hi Skellan,

Here is Kayliss' xml & last chronicle (we be goblins). That means Kayliss is Lvl 2 now - Cleric 1 / Bard 1.

As she is essentially a support character, thought i'd see how a level of bard works out - hoping it will make her even more fun to roleplay (especially her new sultry dance moves that inspire more than just courage...)

The chronicle may be a bit hard to read (the favor stuff) - I used paint to enter the details, and when it saved it came out as a low-res image.

Im currently running Rise of the Runelords, and I thought it would be good to give the players a goblin perspective :)

Looking forward to part 2 - c u then.

The sign in and connection details are available in the first post and in the game calendar.

You will need to have Fantasy Grounds and TeamSpeak3 installed. More information about Pathfinder Society and playing on Fantasy Grounds in this thread: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?17510-Introduction-to-Pathfinder-Society-%28Players%29

You will also need to provide Skellen with your PFS character before the game, or decide to play a valid level 1 PFS pregen. Details on how to provide your PFS character to Skellen in Fantasy Grounds format here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?16961-How-to-export-PCs-ready-for-a-game or here: https://www.fg-con.com/information/pathfinder-society-organized-play/preparing-your-pc-for-fantasy-grounds/

Trenloe

TeamSpeak is the voice software that we will be using to communicate during the game - you will need this setup and a headset with built in mic (not separate speakers and mic as this gives bad feedback). More info here: https://www.fg-con.com/information/teamspeak/

Hi Skellan,

I missed a couple of things with the xml for Kayliss...can you please use this version?

I added a second perform skill (percussion) & added some masterwork bells (musical instrument) - which i will be buying at the start of the next session (forgot to put them on the last chronicle).

Thanks again mate

Skellan
March 15th, 2014, 13:13
As we can't get you fixed up today, I don't think we realistically have time to get you and your brother up and running in time for this scenario. I will run a low level scenario for you next time and get you both properly set up for it. Sorry about this. Don't worry though, we'll get you up and running soon.

So far we have the following for tomorrow:

Trenloe Djub-djub 3
Lord Kavos Kayliss Darkheart 1

well that's the thing im at a hotel right now till tomorrow mid morning so the connection isn't very good and not sure how to work that team speak completetly yet. I know im being a pain but im a completel beginner when it comes to this stuff. I did step one and registered for an id number im number 128102 for pfs and I downloaded the state sheets for the characters but I have difficulty opening them it keeps saying that it cant be opened. I have team speak 3 client loaded up on my laptop but as for reading any chapters im not sure what your talking about and how do you roll up a character for the sheets for the game? that is the part im not understanding. at the hotel the internet cuts out every like 5 or ten minutes

Skellan
March 16th, 2014, 01:28
No worries, I remember what it is like getting started. There's a guide to organized play that you can download on the paizo site where you got your pfs ID. That guide explains character creation etc.
Its after midnight here now and I havent got time to get you set up before tomorrows game, sorry.

I will run something for you next week when we have time to get you set up

Now that you have a Paizo account - get the Guide to Pathfinder Society Organized Play: https://paizo.com/products/btpy84k4 This is a PDF document - you need to "order" it (add it to your cart and go through the order process and then download the PDF document). The document is free, but you still need to order it to have it added to your downloads.

Once you have this document, I suggest you set aside some time to read through at least the first 2-3 chapters.

Sounds good. I should be available around that time, plus or minus a little here or there. I'll be up on teamspeak around that time. If something happens that I can't make it, I'll do my best to give you a heads up.

Don't know if you've got your eye on a specific headset, but I picked up a Logitech H390 for $40 from Radio Shack that's been working great

Hi Skellan,

You left the wand of identify off Kayliss' chronicle - the 2 PP spent is there, just not the wand itself.

Or maybe I left it off the pre-chronicle...

would you mind fixing it & reposting the chronicle please???

Skellan might be asleep at this point, so I'll just give a bit of guidance. The game (Goblinblood Dead) is a one-off game using Paizo's organized play rules "Pathfinder Society" (PFS). You will need to create a PC using the PFS guidelines and sign up for a PFS number, details available here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?17510-Introduction-to-Pathfinder-Society-%28Players%29 Its all free!

Info on creating your PC in Fantasy Grounds is available here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?16961-How-to-export-PCs-ready-for-a-game

Or, if you don't have time to work out the character generation guidelines, you can play one of the PFS legal pregenerated characters.

You will also need to make sure you have Fantasy Grounds installed and TeamSpeak3 for voice, with a headset with built in mic.

I know that the above is a lot to take on to initially get started. But, if you are interested in Pathfinder Society Organized Play please take some time to familiarise yourself with the guide and get an overview of what PFS is.
