[Sir.Gryphon]

Hail and Well Met Pathfinders!

November, a time to reflect and give thanks for the good things in your life. I am thankful that I have so many friends at Wednesday Pathfinder/Starfinder Society Play, really, I appreciate you all!

If anyone does not have something to do for Thanksgiving, let me know! I am hosting a Thanksgiving feast and there is room for more!

As always, I tried to fit in as many requests and accommodations as possible, so if you'd like to see a change, let me know.

Just as a reminder:

• Games start at 6pm and end at 10pm. Let's be respectful of our hosts and try to end on time!
• We follow the D11 weather closure schedule; if D11 is closed on Wednesday, PFS/SFS is canceled for the night. Please be safe and plan accordingly.
• Please make sure that your real name (or at least whatever you'd like me to call you on the schedule) is listed in your post. If your account is ChunkyLover53 and you don't list your real name, you will be christened...
• Sign up as soon as possible, you can always cancel if you need to
• Please do not hot-swap tables!
• Any sign ups on the day of the game (Wednesday) may not get a slot at the table, but do show up. We will always try to fit you in to a game!
• GMs: if you need to cancel, let me know ASAP so I can find a replacement!
• If you want a game scheduled, please ask!

With the changes to the website: I'd like to have everyone click the Attendance button in the upper right and list the game you would like to join in the justification statement when you ask to attend. I think this may reduce duplicate messages and get a better head count for our games!

PF2-AP-04 Doomsday Dawn, Part 4: The Mirrored Moon Tier 9 GM: Jim K
In 4718, a rare planetary conjunction, in combination with the power of ancient artifacts erected in the desert kingdom of Osirion thousands of years ago, will create a massive portal between Golarion and the hostile planet of Aucturn, at the far edge of the solar system. If this portal appears, it will allow the ravenous aliens of the Dominion of the Black to harvest brains from the peoples of the Inner Sea region on a devastating scale and provide an opportunity for a nascent entity of great power awakening from eons-long gestation to feast upon the world of Golarion. Fortunately, hints of this imminent apocalypse have emerged from the sands of time over the past decade, affording a desperate chance to avert this doom. These hints and clues have become known as the Aucturn Enigma, and unless multiple groups of heroes rise to the challenge of opposing this catastrophe, it could destroy one world forever while simultaneously creating another.

As the PCs receive special dispensation to investigate Athaeum's vast records, they learn the first truths of the Scoured Stars and take their first steps in unraveling what happened during the Society's greatest mishap.
Content in In Pursuit of the Scoured Past also contributes to the ongoing goals of the Second Seekers (Luwazi Elsebo) faction. Content in this scenario also contributes to the ongoing year of the Scoured Stars storyline.

[WhiteMane]

I just noticed that we have 2 Starfinder adventures scheduled on the 28th... I think that might be a little ambitious at this time....

What do you think about replacing "Reclaiming the Time-Lost Tear" with a Pathfinder adventure and running it some time in December? I'll be more than happy to play "In Pursuit of the Scoured Past" instead...

[Sir.Gryphon]

Good point. I got a little too focused on the requests and lost sight of the bigger picture. I'll replace the one without a GM with a PFS game... maybe even a 2nd edition one if there is interest.

[greyblade23]

Hey, Randy,
I can run Tyranny of Winds Part 1 on the 7th, Mirrored Moon on the 21st, and either Tyranny Part 2 or the second half of Mirrored Moon on the 28th (my preference is Mirrored Moon if we have enough players).

I’d like a seat at Mysteries under Moonlight on the 14th, please.

Thanks,
Jim K
