The Godsrain and the Dragon
The Godsrain and the Dragon, a Pathfinder Society scenario written by James Case for tier 7–10, was released on February 26, 2025.
“The Pathfinder Society secured friendly relations with the dragon Valashinaz over a year ago, and now seek to call upon that connection. They've recovered several warshards large and small, and their powers seem varied and unpredictable. The latest warshard recovered, the largest yet, seems even stranger. The Society has brokered another agreement with Valashinaz to use her not-inconsiderable skill honed over centuries of appraising fantastic items to appraise these shards. Among the tribute required, though, is a task.
An upstart dragon set up his lair near Valashinaz's territory. He has avoided her wrath mainly because she's been preoccupied with the literal fallout from the god slaying. This is the perfect opportunity for her to get someone else to take care of him, though, and so she has tasked the Pathfinders with getting this upstart out of her territory "by any means necessary."
Content note: Some of this adventure takes place in a traditional spa and public bath, though all adventure content is limited to non-bathing common areas where attendants wear bathrobes. Before you begin, understand that player consent (including that of the Game Master) is vital to a safe and fun play experience for everyone.
