Tier 3-6.

Make sure to both apply here as well as in the game calendar (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/calendar/index.xcp?id=5339), stating which character (including the character's level) you'd like to play.

To clarify: This scenario uses the new PF2 rules and will be run as a Pathfinder Society scenario.

Please schedule around 4 to 4 1/2 hours for the game (a bit more if there are several new players).

I would run the game if we have at least three players interested.

About the scenario:

A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 3–6 (subtiers 3–4 and 5–6).

In part 2 of The Perennial Crown, the PCs must evade the fearsome fey known as the Thorned Monarch. This unrelenting tyrant will stop at nothing to hunt down the PCs and claim their discoveries for themself, bringing to bear not only their awesome physical and magical power, but also manipulating the innocent Bhopanese citizens in their desperate attempts to stop the PCs from fleeing Bhopan with the one item that could put an end to the evil fey's ambitions.

Additional information:

Character creation in PFS2. (https://www.organizedplayfoundation.org/encyclopedia/pfs2edplayer-basics/#character-creation)

Quite a lot of character options in newer books just became PFS2 legal (https://paizo.com/community/blog/v5748dyo6sh3j?Pathfinder-Society-Character-Options)

If this is your first PFS2 game on this particular character, I will need to know your Paizo Organized Play #, your character #, your faction and your current gold (after character creation). You can either put it in the notes tab or send it to me some other way (see below).

If you already played this character, please send me your last chronicle sheet so I know the information mentioned above as well as chronicle #, reputation, XP and fame.

I can have the server up for you to build your character either UTC weeknight evening or possibly on the weekend (though be aware not all books are on FG yet).

If you need a pregen please notify me in advance!

In your own interest, make sure the party is somewhat balanced level-wise.

If you can, please try to send me your character 24 hours before the game so I can review any relevant rules.

Technical details:

We will use Fantasy Grounds Classic (I have an Ultimate license) and most likely Teamspeak (Discord as a backup option).

Steps before the game:

If you apply, make sure you send me your previous chronicle sheet of the character you want to apply this chronicle to (if you already have any chronicle sheet) either here or on Discord (Fantasy Grounds channel). If it is your first PFS2 game, I'll at least need your Paizo Organized Play # and your faction.

If you haven't already, also make sure to either build the character on FG yourself (and send it to me) or log in early enough so you can do so on game day.

Make sure you have updated Fantasy Grounds.

FG alias and Teamspeak server can be found under GM announcements in the game calendar.

Some boilerplate clarifications:

Please apply on the FG forums on both the game calendar as well as in the game thread (if multiple household members are playing, one person per household is sufficient). First, it's easier to tell how many spots are already filled that way. Second, the other players (as well as the GM) know what level and class to expect from your character (if you don't know yet, simply state TBD). Third, you'll get notified about any updates if you post in the game thread (at least about the first one). Fourth, it allows the GM to determine who applied first should it become relevant. Some exceptions might apply.

Also, please be sure to check the thread for new messages occasionally. You don't have to check each and every day or every few hours but please make sure to reply to any posts that do concern you in time. Should you remain unresponsive, I'll give the spot to a player that applied after you (as I won't know whether you are still interested in participating or not). Exceptions might apply, e.g. if you state beforehand that you won't be able to respond due to traveling.

If you apply but don't show up or drop out during the game without notice, in future games I might also give preference to other players who have a better track record of showing up. I am aware though that life and technical problems can always happen, so don't worry if you have a valid reason though.

These rules are not in place to prevent players from playing but in fact to enable players willing to play to actually do so. It's frustrating if I have to turn down players if it turns out they would in fact have been able to play.

Unfortunately I already committed to running the next session of the 1e adventure path that day. If anything changes however, I'll be sure to let you know

Sure, no problem!

@Major Blaze: Will Kirishima also be able to make it?

I would like to join the game. I have not played a pathfinder society 2E game yet so I would need to play a pregen character. However, contrary to what the paizo website says, there are only pregens for levels 1 and 5 so in the event that we are not playing at tier 5-6 I will not be able to play.
My id is: 2387936 If I am correct you will also need the character ID of my 1st level character I would like to apply the credit to: 2387936-2001.
Depending on what the other players are playing, I would like to play the Wizard, Cleric, or Fighter in that that order.

Ezren, Kyra, and Valeros are all available at 3rd level.

Only shortly as I'll have to get to sleep:

The pdfs can be found here (https://paizo.com/products/btq01zt5?Community-Use-Package-PF2E-Iconics-Pregenerated-Characters) - though note some of the more exotic ones might not be built on FG yet.

The available FG xmls you can find e.g. here (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?16900-Files-Pregen-Player-Characters-(FG-format)/page12).

[playing out of subtier can sometimes be a bit problematic but is generally possible]

You can also still choose a faction - though that is currently not yet urgent.

The PDFs on the Paizo site seem to only cover levels 1 and 5 of a select few pre-generated characters. The FG xmls cover more than those. Is there a different location were I can find the complete list of pre-gens?

This should have all 12 core classes at level 1 and some at 3 and 5. The APG looks like they only made 1 and 5 so far.

Unless there is something different with my file, does not include level 3 characters and the xml conversions include level 7 of some characters and level 5 of other characters that only have a level 1 PDF.

I don't have the xml. I converted the pdf myself for the core. I can try to redownload and see what I get. Give me a second

Yep. You're correct. It looks like when they updated the file with the APG pregens they removed the level 3 core pregens. Since they are free Stephan may still have them. If not, let me know and I can send him or you PDFs for you to look at to see which one you want to play.

Thank you for looking into it. Another person sent me the level 3 PDFs for the cleric, fighter, and wizard, which were the 3 that I had the most interest in playing.

Thanks!

Yes, the level 3s seem to be missing since the APG release but that probably is an error. Either the previously appended pdf files or the FG xmls should provide an overview over the available options though.


(Note that the level 7s included in the linked thread are not official Paizo pregens.)
