Bacterial Dampeners
A small pill packs a large punch! Once you swallow this pill, bacteria make a colony in your body. These bacteria do not cause any disease but put out proteins when under stress that dampen the pain response. When you are reduced to 0 SP, you gain temporary hit points based on the level of the augmentation. Once triggered, you must rest for a day and eat to regain the use of this ability.
Sometimes the geekery cross pollinates. Here’s todays idea.
Bacterial Dampeners After swallowing this pill, your body is infused with a harmless bacteria. The bacteria expresses several proteins that are released under stress and damage that block the sensation of pain. Bacterial dampeners provide a bonus equal to its rating on your soak rolls.
BODYWARE RATING ESSENCE AVAILABILITY COST Bacterial Dampeners 1–3 Rating x 0.2 5 Rating x 15,000¥
somatic, verbal, material Range 200 feet; Targets 1 creature
Make a spell attack. If you hit, the target is afflicted elfshot, which eats away at the targets body. The arrow leaves no hole on the body, but if the body is cut open an arrow hole can clearly be seen in the organs and heart. Unless the caster is seen casting this spell, the target is unaware that they have been afflicted with this spell. The target does not make a Fortitude save when hit. Instead, each night at moonrise, the target must make a Fortitude save.
Elfshot (disease); Level 11. Saving Throw DC 24 Fortitude; Onset 1 day; The target can’t recover from the drained or dying condition from elfshot until the disease is cured. Unlike with regular dying, you are not unconscious when you have the dying condition from this disease until you reach dying 4 where you die. The only way to completely cure the disease completely is with a treat disease action using the plants feverfew, red nettles and waybread as components in the treatment as even a critical save will not completely remove the disease. .
Saw Tasting History, so now I have an idea for today!
Elfshot
5th-level enchantment
Casting Time:1 action Range: 200 feet Components: V, S, M (arrow head made from a fingernail) Duration:30 days
You throw the arrowhead at a target in range making a ranged spell attack. On a hit, the target is pierced by the spell. Unless someone directly sees you throw the arrow, the target does not know they are affected. Each day at moonrise, the target must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failure, the target gains one level of exhaustion. This level of exhaustion can not be removed until this curse is lifted or the spell ends. If the target dies from this spell, no wound is found on the surface, but a hole from an arrow will be found inside the target.
The spell can be recognized with a successful Intelligence(arcana) or Wisdom(medicine) check. You can end the spell by making a Wisdom(medicine) check using the plants feverfew, red nettles and waybread as components in the treatment. A remove curse, greater restoration, or wish spell also ends it. In either case to end the spell, you must be aware that the target is affected by this spell.
Been reading about religion again, so time for some crazy stuff!

Basics– Pathfinder! The Society calls! A new lodge is being built and new agents are needed to help with getting the area settled. You won’t be wielding a hammer. The land needs to be purified and the locals may help or hurt if you make enough friends. An intro adventure for levels 3 to 6.
Mechanics or Crunch-I love the crunch here. There are a ton of fights, but none drag on. Also, there are multiple things like social encounters, exploration, and some solid fights as well. Heck there is even a hard boss fight, but like all good RPGs, if you play smart and make friends, life is easier. This feels like a great introduction to the system and world, even better than 2-01. 5/5
Theme or Fluff– Story, combat, exploration, and social-all parts of a solid whole that make a fun adventure. When I run this I have a blast and so do my players. Nothing drags; there is always time left but you leave feeling full. More adventures like this are needed to pull new pathfinders into the fold. 5/5
Execution– PDF? Yes. Hyperlinked? Yes. Good layout, handout, and all the other basics make this a solid adventure. The only thing I don’t like are the maps that are marked up so I have to buy the other map somewhere else. That always feels cash grabby, but that is the only bad thing here. 4.75/5
Summary-I love this adventure. You get new locations, new characters, and solid fights that make a fun adventure. It’s balanced well with a fun boss fight and great execution that makes running this a blast. Would like clean maps, but that is my only problem. If you want some intro to Pathfinder, you won’t go wrong with this one. 98%
