A new PFRPG campaign?
So this last weekend we wrapped up the free introductory adventure from Paizo. We have been really impressed with the new system, familiar but with all the right tweaks. It’s close enough that you can run a pre-PF adventure from 3.5 with almost no changes. Much better than 4th.
Anyway, well written as always. It took us two sessions, but mainly due to character creation in the first session.
We proceeded with completely random characters. 3d6 in order, two rolls per stat, pick the highest. Roll a d10 for race, with a 10 letting you choose. This gave us the expected bizarro results, with two halflings( bard and sorcerer ), a dwarf (rogue) and a human (monk). This isn’t really a balanced party. The monk helps fill in where a fighter or paladin would normally do. No cleric, but with the new rules the bard has some healing and the so does the sorcerer(!) via the celestial bloodline.
Everyone seemed to like it enough to continue on. I’ve been torn on whether to try out one of the Adventure Path series or continue with the follow up module to the intro. I think I’ve settled on the follow-up.
I don’t exactly have a session write up, but they pretty much followed the expected plot line. The only awkward part of the session was the cauldron battle. It certainly was interesting when the rogue decided to trip the cauldron. “The cauldron is prone!”
I’ll try a little harder to get better write-ups in the future.
