The Sandstorm Prophecy
The Sandstorm Prophecy, a Pathfinder Society scenario written by RPG Superstar Season 9 finalist Charlie Brooks for tier 1–5, was released on November 30, 2016.
“As a repurposed prison, the Sandswept Hall Pathfinder lodge in Sothis is an imposing target for thieves, yet an enemy operative recently broken in, stole valuable property, and escaped into the sun-scorched deserts of eastern Osirion. The PCs are the best disposed to follow the culprit's trail. Be warned, though, for the Scorpion Coast is the battleground of powerful elemental tribes that have assailed Osirion's frontier with cruel sandstorms and deadly force for millennia.
Content in The Sandstorm Prophecy also contributes directly to the ongoing storyline of the Scarab Sages faction.
The Sandstorm Prophecy is the first scenario in the three-part "Tyranny of Winds" campaign arc. It is followed by Pathfinder Society Scenario #8-10: Secrets of the Endless Sky and Pathfinder Society Scenario #8-12: Caught in the Eclipse. All three chapters are intended to be played in order.
