SUMMARY
Dacilane Academy benefactor J Dacilane decides to host a prank war to help students blow
off steam before settling into their finals, with the PCs to serve as mentors and judges of the
students’ pranks. The PCs begin by helping students set up their own pranks before Dacilane
asks them to look in on a prank that has gone overboard.
The PCs find a fey caravan has stopped by the school and joined the prank war, escalating
HOW TO PLAY the pranks into fantastical displays of magical chaos! As the PCs keep the students safe from
fey over-eagerness, some of the pranks begin to cross the line from overzealous fun into deadly
intent, driven by the evil redcap Numblekin egging other fey on toward destructive ends. After
PLAY TIME: 4–5 HOURS the PCs either subdue the fey by force or win them over with persuasion, the school gathers
for an assembly in the new auditorium to celebrate the event. When Numblekin strikes, eager
for violence, the PCs will need to stand up to the evil fey and save the prank war—but will they
befriend or alienate the rest of the fey with their actions?

too seriously.
Unbeknownst to the academy, the school’s history
of chaotic magical events has made it a regular spot
for itinerant fey to visit as they pass through Absalom;
creatures of the First World find both the mundane
and magical chaos of the school to be charming and
relaxing. While the school has previously only had
one or two fey visit it at a time, Dacilane’s decision
to stage a prank war has the fortune, good or bad,
of happening just as a fey caravan is visiting the city.
Led by the fierce and fiery leprechaun patriarch Pappy
Draighean (CN male leprechaun leader), the raucous
collective of First World folk is a strange and wild Getting Started
group, full of fey from across the chaotic nature plane. The letter from J Dacilane to the Pathfinder Society

As the students cross back across the cobbled street

to the Academy in whispering knots and clumps, J stops
with the PCs and is happy to answer any questions they
have. Answers to some questions the PCs might ask are
listed below. As they ask questions, attempt a secret DC
23 Perception check for each PC. PCs who succeed at the
check notice tiny winged sprites flying high above the
school. If spotted, the sprites immediately flee.
What should we know about the students? “The students
are wards or progeny of Pathfinder agents, so many of
them are well-traveled and a little too smart for their own
good. They can be overconfident in their abilities and
underestimate the consequences of their actions.”
Can we help the students with their tasks? “Please do!
The students often have grand ideas but may need help to
make them appropriate for one another. Just remember
you’re here to assist, not do the tasks for them—please
provide them with your expertise and wisdom but allow
them to engage with the experience themselves.”
What can you tell us about the Dacilane Academy? “The
Pathfinder Society purchased the manor decades ago and
established this school in 4643 to educate their agents’
children. I began providing financial backing to the place a
few years ago and the Society renamed it in their gratitude.”
Who’s that up there?/Did you invite sprites to the
event? J looks up seeing nothing, and laughs, “Good to
see you’re already getting in the spirit of the war.” If the
PCs insist they did see sprites, J says, “Well, if our little
event draws guests, the more the merrier, I say. As long
as everything stays in the spirit of friendly competition.”

EVENT 5: THE PERFECT PRANK STORM

MODERATE
The PCs can regroup with J and the students, who have
formed a fort of sorts out of the lunchroom tables. All
of the students and staff are accounted for except
for Headmaster Rosedell. In the PCs’ absence, J and
the students have recruited the house spirits for the
simple price of letting them live at the school. Now
armed with the magical advantage of the regenerating
pies, J leads the students charging into the halls in an
all-out counter-offensive. When J rounds the corner into
the annex hallway (A9), he stops when he sees a giant
opossum through the open laboratory door. He
calls the PCs to the front and asks them
to investigate while he gets the students
away from the area.

B. THEATER SEVERE
The PCs and J gather on stage, and he asks the PCs to make
the choice for the winner of the Medal of Foolery. After they
announced the winner but before students arrive on stage,
Numblekin arrives; read or paraphrase the following.

From behind the backstage curtain, a long sharp blade suddenly

emerges, slicing a long gash. “What a waste, to give so high
an award to such a lowly prank! Did you not see the blood
Numblekin spilt? Or hear the fear in the screams we caused? I
left you the dead possum because I thought you’d laugh!” From
the shadowy wings of the stage, manic giggles expressing
something much darker than mirth ripple from flitting shapes
and smaller blades eviscerate the curtain, slicing it to ribbons.
A small, wizened old man with a long beard peeks through the
sliced curtain, his dark red hat glistening wetly. “Fine then, one
last prank from Numblekin and his merry band of miscreants—
we’re going to steal the medal! Stop us if you can!”

The backstage curtain doesn’t prevent movement.

Creatures on opposite sides of the curtain have
concealment from each other, but not cover.
Creatures: Numblekin uses the curtains’ concealment
and his high movement speed to stay away from melee
combatants. If the PCs have accrued 2 or fewer Pappy’s
NUMBLEKIN Ire Points, use the encounter labeled Numblekin. The
jinkins coordinate attacks to try to flank foes. For levels
5–6, the twigjacks lead with their splinter spray, hitting
as many PCs as possible without harming their allies.

Sprinkle Pixie Dust [one-action] (manipulate) The pixie sprinkles pixie dust
onto one of its arrows. If the pixie hits a creature with that
arrow before the pixie’s next turn, the arrow inflicts one of
the following special effects instead of dealing damage. Each
effect depends on the target’s DC 21 Will save. On a critical hit,
the target treats its save result as one degree worse.
• Charm (emotion, enchantment, incapacitation, mental)
The target suffers the effects of a charm spell, except
it doesn’t gain a bonus to its save if the only hostile act
was the pixie firing its bow, and the pixie can choose
to direct the target’s adoration toward another creature
rather than itself.

the target loses the last 5 minutes of its memory.

Routine (4 actions) The hazard regenerates any pies that it
has thrown at a cost of one action per pie (to a maximum of

deactivates one of the pies, reducing the number of active
pies by 1. After regenerating pies on its turn, the hazard
throws pies whenever a creature triggers continually

pan has nails driven into it by Numblekin and deals and
additional 2d8+7 piercing damage. The nails make the pie’s
damage lethal, rather than nonlethal.

attempts an action with the concentrate trait for the first

Adventure Summary

You responded to a call from J Dacilane to come and assist with the Dacilane Academy’s first prank war, which involved assisting
students with their pranks and ensuring that no one got hurt. In the middle of the war, a fey caravan came to join the mischief, including
some evil fey. You came across the first fey prank, a number of regenerating pies masterminded by some house spirits. You handled the
house spirits □ peacefully or □ with violence. You met with the leader, Pappy Draighean, and you □ convinced him to calm down the
fey, or □ were unable to gain his favor. You stumbled across a burning library and hallways full of opossums and were able to handle
the pranks □ peacefully or you □ had to resort to violence. Once the academy was calmed, you attended the ceremony to present the
Medal of Foolery, only to have the redcap Numblekin attack out of offense □ with his minions or □ with Pappy. You handled the
redcap and ensured the academy’s safety! The fey caravan □ has decided to return or □ bears a grudge against the Pathfinder Society.
