D&D Pathfinder
hedgie:
So, the first session will be on Tuesday, and I'm mostly prepped and ready to go. I figure that I'll have the ship that the players on will be attacked by pirates, to give the 6 newbies (out of 8 in the group) a taste of mass-combat where there are npcs who would be able to help out, as well as dealing with saving throws from grapeshot, and maybe sleep poisons. Once the PCs make landfall, I plan on running a short mystery, to get them acquainted with their non-combat skills and abilities.
After that, I'm probably going to take a vote as to what direction things will go, whether to have a single over-arching plot, or various plotlines as things advance. Regardless, I'm not going to introduce any long plots until the characters are 4th or 5th level, so that they can just explore the world and develop their characters a bit.

I think I'll have to borrow that sort of start for a campaign. Though. i think the max group size I could manage would be 4 or 5.
We ended up in the next town I asked a druid/naturalist what the egg was, no idea. So I asked a pissy blue bird[1] at a druid's shop and it identified the egg as being a caterpillar egg. So it very well could be Mothra with the serial number filed off. We also met a surly artificer with a sketchy hobgoblin guard[2]. I managed to trade my sacrificial dagger Book of Training Wolves and Eagles for a green dragon scale ring, though.
At the tavern, we met a kenku and half-elf totally-not-smugglers who informed us of a band of 200 orcs mounting in the east. I successfully yanked an arrow out of the kenku. He wasn't happy about it, but he's better now.
Then we spent far too long farting around with a weird gazebo. Turns out it's linked to the Elemental Plane of Fire, and we got some interesting magic items. Including a Rock of Procrastination. It literally makes people procrastinate. Our noble has it now.
[1]It didn't like that I was a bluish gray in color with green freckles
[2] I saw him carve some theives cant into the side of the wall and it disappeared. Don't know what it meant, just that it's bad.
EDIT:removing redundacy

But was it a Dread Gazebo?

Sadly, it wasn't a mimic (that we know of). Though, it did seem to have some setience to it. The gazebo was built by a crazy architect named Ferrick(sp?) the Mad. We also suspect it might link to the Abyss, but nobody in the party speaks Abyssal. Oddly enough, it's our Drow cleric of Lathandar[1] who speaks Ignian.
[1]He was created before The Mighty Nein met the queen of Xhorhas(sp?). He's actually based on Solair from Dark Souls.

At least it wasn't designed by Bloody Stupid Johnson.
