Hey guys!
I just got a campaign dropped on me, literally 20 mins ago, for later today. (It is now 5am)

I will be DM'ing -Brand New- players. Pathfinder.
Basically, we are familiarizing them with Rules/Rolls/etc and building their first Characters. Should be fun all around.

That being said, I NEED some quests, just as the Title states. They are starting lv1. Basically, Im asking for some low-level scenarios I can throw at them, preferably ones that will bring up different sets of rules so they experience it.
ie: Difficult Terrain, Grappling, Group-Combat, Social, etc.

Any and all suggestions help guys. It is greatly appreciated on this Short notice.
^^

You might take a look at Master of the Fallen Fortress (http://paizo.com/products/btpy8ey4) or some of the other free to download Pathfinder Modules.

My original intent upon hearing the news was to do such a thing. Thank you for affirming it. ^^

That being said, I would also like some "Filler quest" I do not have the means to print out a Module at the moment, so anything that fits in my notebook written by hand ^^ hence my "Wing it" attitude.

Thank you for the fast response.

That, I haven't figured out yet, sorry. I have very limited experience being a DM. Aside from the Pathfinder modules, I've run one game, and the only reason I didn't have a total party wipe is because I managed to kill two of the four enemies that attacked the party with critical fumbles.

"Some bad guys have kidnapped the Princess. Are you bad enough dudes to rescue her?"

"There's an Elf tribe/group/whatever encroaching on our lands, taking our resources and killing our game. Please get rid of them."

"You've been contracted by a local Thieves guild to infiltrate a semi-wealthy estate and steal as much as you can before the semi-wealthy owner comes home. He may have guards."

"Obligatory Sewer level"

"Bodies have been going missing from the local town graveyard and people suspect a Necromancer is in play. Investigate and find out the source of the missing corpses!"

Thank you! That is exactly what I was looking for.
I will definitely use the Necromancer one.

You might get some ideas from The Big List of RPG plots:

Then you could tie those plot ideas to game mechanics.
