The Darkest Abduction, a Pathfinder Society scenario written by Jerome Virnich for tier 7-11, was released on June 24, 2015.

“

The occasional unexplained disappearance is common enough in Ustalav, yet a rash of unexplained abductions has led to fearful speculation on the verge of panic in the streets. Hoping to improve the Pathfinder Society's reputation in Ustalav, Venture-Captain Basia Kalistoff has offered her lodge's services in putting an end to this crime wave. But in a city where countless terrors haunt its underworld and institutions, can the PCs unveil the true culprit without unleashing an even darker fate on Karcau?
