It's only a "young" Glabrezu.

That's only in the hard-mode option, John.

Though I am happy that there is a new Tier 1 Scenario, I was hoping it would be a Bonus Scenario like First Steps was.
I am not a fan of a Very Limited in level selection scenario taking up one of the 26 scenarios for the season.
I am sure I will have the same problem once a new retirement scenario comes out.

My question (which probably won't be answered until the scenario comes out and we get a look at the chronicles) is this: since part of the lore of Golarion is that upon the completion of a Pathfinder's Confirmation he receives a wayfinder (as written in the Pathfinder Society Primer) do we get a free wayfinder upon the completion of this scenario?
"Reply hazy try again."

John, Mike Brock's Post about first steps back in April:
At the start of Season 5, parts 2 and 3 will be retired. Part 1 will remain an active scenario. Once we have a new Tier 1 only scenario in place, part 1 will then be retired. It is my goal to have 1-2 Tier 1 only scenarios placed on the regular publishing schedule for PFS and published each season, that capture the flavor of the season. This won't be specifically tied to a certain faction so they can remain an evergreen product.
You won't see the first one of these until early 2014 and is the reason we are keeping part 1 of First Steps live until tha time. In the future, I hope to have one of these release as a Gen Con release.
Do we get a free wayfinder upon the completion of this scenario?
"cannot predict now"
Will this product be free like the First Step series?

Hmm. This kinda looks like a retraction:
I am aware of no plans to remove First Steps, Part 1.
Kinda smells like a retraction.
Perhaps it's a retraction? :-D
Do PCs who complete this get a free wayfinder?
"Concentrate and ask again."
"Ask again later."
Do PCs who complete this get a free wayfinder?
None of your PCs will.
You can't kill 'em all, Kyle.
One can certainly try.

Long ago, Kyle, you promised to come kill my tiefling cleric.
I'm still waiting.
That's easily remedied. A scenario just needs to involve a dead Thomas, the Tiefling Hero who has an axe in his back. The axe's blade is inscribed with a single word: Baird. If a fake Thomas should happen to play that scenario (the real Thomas, the Tiefling Hero is dead, remember?), the adventure implodes, killing off the impostor and all other Pathfinders in a 5-mile radius.
Gotta say, though, I know somebody would be relieved yet saddened were your cleric to take his place in an upcoming adventure.
Announced for November!Is this scenario only for "brand new" first level characters (i.e. never played before). Or you play any first level character (i.e. one with 1 or 2 scenarios under their belt?).
Thanks.

NYC PFS GM/Player
It's for any first level character and we're discussing options with 2nd level characters.
It would be nice to have a subtier for 2's.

...You mean someone in an upcoming adventure ends up with an axe in his back that's inscribed "Baird"? That's a little hard on the fourth wall, don't you think? ;)

Baird's axe ignores the fourth wall's hardness.

Just a dead cleric. The exact cause of death is as of yet undetermined.

It sounds like it would be a really weird story for 2's. "Yeah, I've already been on a couple missions for the Pathfinders, but now I'm really going to become one!"
That would be for the pathfinders who received field commissions instead of the ones who went through the three years of training.

Cause of death would probably be my 1/day ability to jump between my ally and an attacker. ;)

Hope this is out on the 27th. I hoping to run in on Thanksgiving post turkey.
With the few exceptions I know of based on unforeseen circumstances or early, selective distribution for major convention preparation, we release the month's scenarios for purchase on the last Wednesday of the month. I have no reason to believe that it will be any different for November.

I have declared, that this scenario will be my 150th game session of Pathfinder Society.
I think it's fitting. After three years, and 149 sessions, it's time indeed for a confirmation of my own.
But now I have to find people to play this game, Kyle Baird has a negative reputation in my realm, so they may not be too inclined to run all their new shiny boon characters through it. :D
