About Organized Play
In an organized play campaign, your character exists in a common setting shared by thousands of other gamers worldwide. You can take your character to any public Organized Play event anywhere in the world, and while the Game Master and your companions might change every time you play, your character advances as normal.
Over time, campaigning in an organized play environment offers a uniquely immersive experience, as your diverse companions add depth and character to the campaign world. It's also a great way to get in touch with other local gamers, meet new people, and play regularly without all the prep work and scheduling of a traditional campaign. Your local regional coordinator (also called a Venture-Captain or Venture-Lieutenant) can assist you in finding or setting up your own Organized Play event.
How do I get started?
All Organized Play players must register themselves and their characters online. When you register, you'll receive an official Organized Play Number. Keep your Organized Play Number handy and bring it with you to every OP event you attend. Paizo uses this number to record the adventures your character has completed and the XP and gold they have gained.
If you just want to jump right in and don't want to worry about all that until you've had a chance to play, a pre-generated character can be provided for you at your first game.
Where can I play?
Once you've got an Organized Play Number and have created your character, you're ready to play your first Pathfinder or Starfinder Society adventure! The easiest way to find a local game is to join this Meetup and RSVP for one of the upcoming Meetups on this site with an advertised level range for a level 1 character. The level range will be listed at the end of the Meetup title in parenthesis such as (1-2),(1-4) or (3-6).
What do I have to bring?
At a minimum, you'll need a character sheet with all of your character information. You'll also need to know your Organized Play Number (it's a good idea to write it somewhere on your character sheet), a set of 7 polyhedral dice, a pencil, a 1-inch scale miniature or token to represent your character on a combat grid. Other players may be able to lend you dice or a miniature for the gaming session if you don't have any, but eventually, you'll want to get a set of your own. The only thing left needed is a desire to roleplay and have fun!
I hope to see you at the gaming table soon,
Venture-Captain Randy Cronin
Venture-Lieutenants David Malkiewicz and Zachary Davis

See all- PFS2 1-22: Doom of Cassomir (1-4)Titan Games and Hobbies, Lutherville, MD
A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for 1st- through 4th-level characters. Note: Pregenerated characters will be available for players who don’t have a character in the scenario’s level range.
Doom stalks the streets of Cassomir! The people of Admiral's Fen have long been doughty pioneers and sailors, but time and tribulations both natural and economic have worn down their spirits. Amid this widespread gloom and general depression, dark forces have begun pulling strings to begin a societal collapse that could take the entire city under. Venture-Captain Hestia Themis calls on her allies in the Pathfinder Society to try and help her unravel the twisting skeins of manipulation and deceit before Cassomir's final doom is assured.

SYNOPSIS: In her latest venture to help fund the Knights of Lastwall and to bring some needed cheer to Absalom, Lady Hesla Embersplitter has announced a carnival within the Foreign Quarter, inviting the children of Absalom to come and spend some time among games and entertainment. As a sign of goodwill, the Pathfinder Society has decided to send along a group of Pathfinders to make a show of being around and keep an eye on some of the visiting students from the Dacilane Academy. However, the mysterious Godsrain doesn't seem to be finished quite yet and a strange storm seems to be brewing over the Puddles...
