With convention season right around the corner, you know Paizo is dropping all of the news about upcoming Pathfinder and Starfinder Society storylines.
Pathfinder Society
At the end of May, Paizo will be releasing Pathfinder Society Scenario #6-16: The Heart of the City and Pathfinder Society Scenario #6-17: The Devil in the Details. If you don’t want to wait until the 28th, you can play them early at PaizoCon Online.
Debuting at Gen Con is Pathfinder Society Scenario #6-99: Under the Eye of the Mantis. While adventuring in Sarkoris, Pathfinder Agent Khione Thidos went missing and a strange randsom note was delivered to the Grand Lodge detailing that she’d been taken by the Red Mantis. As the Society is preparing a missive, a member of the Vernai appeared in Ambrus Valsin’s office demanding to speak with Zarta Dralneen and Eando Kline about a favor they didn’t know they owed her. Pathfinders quickly learned of a shipping company based on an island off the coast of Mediogalti Island known as the Red Mantis Dispatch.
As the Year of Immortal Influence comes to a close, it is time for the leaders of the Pathfinder Society to turn their attention to a question that’s been gnawing at them for the past year: Why did Queen Abrogail Thrune II order the destruction of Greensteeples? The question was seemingly unimportant while Pathfinder agents were contending with the rise of a demon lord, but is has now returned to focus as Venture-Captain Brackett receives a missive for assistance from Andira Marusek. It’s time for war. Welcome to the Year of Battle’s Spark!
The Year of Battle’s Spark kicks off with Pathfinder Society Intro: Year of Battle’s Spark—Enough is Enough at Gen Con 2025.
Starfinder Society
As with the Pathfinder Society, Paizo is releasing Starfinder Society Scenario #7-14: Final Assessment on the 28th of May, but it will be available to play early at PaizoCon Online.
This year’s Gen Con will see Starfinder Society 2.0: Year 1’s storyline: Invasion’s Edge! Emerging suddenly from deep space, a vessel traveling at speeds that should have cracked a planet in half slowed long enough to crash into the Sloughscar Hills of Akiton. Curious explorers and opportunistic salvagers descended upon the wreck, among which was a mercenary team in the employ of the Starfinder Society. Within hours, the starship’s automated defenses activated, driving the explorers out and unleashing dangerous monsters and magical effects into the region, including the dreaded illumantula, a terrifying monster of magic, technology, and light. This starship was soon dubbed the Wreck of the Returned.
Invasion’s Edge begins with Starfinder Society Scenario #1-00: Collision’s Wake, a double length scenario prequel to the new metaplot.
With PaizoCon Online coming May 23rd to 25th, we’re sure to hear more about the new scenarios and adventure paths on their way!
