The Sky Key Solution
The Sky Key Solution, a Pathfinder Society special by Crystal Frasier for tier 1-11, debuted at Gen Con 2015. It is the first scenario of the Year of the Serpent.
“At long last, the Pathfinder Society has reassembled the Numerian device known as the Sky Key. Initial tests suggest it is capable of projecting a location's past into the present, allowing Society agents to peruse books from destroyed libraries and speak with echoes of long-dead heroes. Now that it has perfected the Sky Key's controls, the Pathfinder Society is prepared to extract a slice of Absalom's history and bring it into the present; however, there's no telling what might be waiting inside—or who in the present might wish to wield the same power.
