[Pathfinder] Best Level 1 Adventure?

[Chainsaw Hobbit]

My friend came back from a vacation yesterday, and I'm going to welcome him back by running him, and a few other friends, through an epic Pathfinder campaign. I want to start at 1st level, and I have most of the published Pathfinder modules. Which is the best?

I don't know if it's been fully converted to Pathfinder, but Rise of the Runelords is set in Golarion, is written by Paizo, and does a great job of taking characters from 1st level all the way up into the teens.

(Just watch out for the Quasit)

I agree.

I am running my group through RotRL as well and it is fun, but needs a little tweaking to PF rules.

and do watch out for the Quasit!

Apparently somebody on the PFSRD site has already done the legwork for converting the NPC statblocks. You would just need to look them up beforehand or as you go.

I hate this Quasit. (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/monstrous-npcs/cr-5/erylium)

Carrion Crown: Haunting of Harrowstone is quite good. Nice story and a cool gothic feel to it.

My group's first Pathfinder adventure was the Godsmouth Heresy (http://paizo.com/store/games/roleplayingGames/p/pathfinderRPG/paizo/pathfinderModules/v5748btpy8hil).

I ran it with 2 separate groups. It was very fun, but it is important to note as a DM that it is rather deadly.

Godsmouth Heresy Spoilers
The first creature (in the stairwell) nearly one-shot Party A's Alchemist, and the roach swarm almost took out the entirety of Party A. Party B did a fighting retreat sort of thing from the roaches that worked quite a bit better than "Stand there and scream".

I was going to say, 'Hey, this sounds a lot like when I played this module!' and then I realized you were my DM. :smallamused:

For the record, Party A was not almost-killed by that monster. We just freaked out because we didn't have an efficient way to handle it, and caused as much damage to ourselves as to it. :smallbiggrin:
