1 Bugs Thousand's of them sir! Comin right at me! The Hive and the Flame Aerolyth Enterprises Miniature Friday Terry Sofian Expeditions have been sent around the world to the remotest of location in search of evidence of Bug Hives. One such Hive has been discovered deep in South America jungle. The South American Jungle presents a formidable obstacle for a overland attack.
That means the quickest way to reach, attack and destroy the Hive is from the air. A multinational force has been assembled for a aerial attack to destroy this newly discovered Hive.
1 7-10: The Consortium Compact (1-2) Pathfinder Society Paizo RPGA Friday PFS Staff The Aspis Consortium pays well, but few can stand its underhanded tactics for long. One operative fed up with the Consortium's practices has contacted the Pathfinder Society with a tempting offer: assist her in leaving the organization, and she will supply the Society with years of insider intelligence about their longstanding rival. It's up to the PCs to navigate Diobel—a proud town run by cutthroat smugglers—earn the defector's trust, and deal a telling blow to their Aspis foes. "The Consortium Compact" is an evergreen, replayable scenario designed to help introduce players to the Pathfinder Society, the Isle of Kortos, and one of the Society's longstanding rivals.
1 7-21: The Sun Orchid Scheme (1-5) Pathfinder Society Paizo RPGA Friday PFS Staff With the power to vastly extend life, the sun orchid elixir is one of the most prized items in the Inner Sea—and as a result one of the most dangerous to transport. After his shipments of sun orchid elixir vanished without a trace two years in a row, the ruler of Pashow is desperate to ensure that his next delivery goes off without a hitch. In order to test its security, Pashow has hired a team of Pathfinders to execute their finest heist and test the convoy’s defenses. Are the PCs up to the challenge? Content in “The Sun Orchid Scheme” also contributes directly to the ongoing storyline of the Sovereign Court faction.
1 Season of the Runelords Pathfinder Adventure Paizo Board Friday PFS Staff Who hasn’t heard of the Heroes of Sandpoint? Surely all of Varisia knows of the brave adventurers who ventured into the ruined heart of the Thassilonian Empire and slayed Karzoug, the Runelord of Greed. You’ve always thought it strange that those ancient folks wanted to worship at the altar of various sins, but since the ruins of their old nation-states litter the landscape even today, it must have worked for them. But the whole “defeat a legendary power thought long dead” routine raises a few questions in your mind, and the muttering you’ve heard in tavern after tavern proves you’re not the only ones wondering. How did Karzoug come back from the dead after thousands of years? Why did he come back from the dead after thousands of years? And the big one, the question that keeps you up sometimes at night… Why do people think he’s the only Runelord to come back?

1 7-13: Captive in Crystal (5-9) Pathfinder Society Paizo RPGA Friday PFS Staff Recent events have left the Master of Spells Aram Zey unable to fulfill his duties, and without his expertise, the Pathfinder Society struggles to resolve pressing arcane matters. The Decemvirate has reopened the decade-old case of the most qualified replacement: Aram Zey's predecessor and former Master of Spells Sorrina Westyr, who disappeared while handling a powerful wayfinder that the Society has since kept closely guarded. It is up to the PCs to track down Sorrina Westyr—and bring back whatever remains. Content in "Captive in Crystal" also contributes directly to the ongoing storyline of the Grand Lodge faction.
1 7-15: The Deepmarket Deception (3-7) Pathfinder Society Paizo RPGA Friday PFS Staff When the Pathfinder Society claimed the Hao Jin Tapestry in Tian Xia, it seemed as though the Aspis Consortium's influence there had ended. An anonymous informant recently identified an Aspis resurgence in Goka's Deepmarket, and Venture-Captain Amara Li hopes that a small, well-trained team can ferret out the villains and prevent any greater atrocities. Can the PCs traverse the Deepmarket's treacherous politics and tunnels and neutralize the Consortium's local ringleader? Content in "The Deepmarket Deception" also contributes directly to the ongoing storyline of the retired Lantern Lodge faction. Content in this scenario also ties into a special metaplot element from Pathfinder Society Special #6–98: Serpents Rise. Players who have completed that special event are encouraged to bring its Chronicle Sheet when playing this adventure.
