Excising Ruination
Breaking the Storm: Excising Ruination, a Pathfinder Society scenario written by Nicholas Wasko for tier 7-10, was released on June 30, 2021.
“With allies ready to assist them, the Pathfinder Society enacts a ritual to track down one of its leaders who is now possessed by an evil force. With agents spread across the region in hopes of tracking down their target, things quickly spiral out of control when a threat is discovered to be closer to home than anyone would expect. It's up to a single group of Pathfinders to track down and confront this new foe, which could lead to a threat against the whole of Golarion!
