PFS StandardPathfinder Field Agent

This half-elf woman looks dressed to travel anywhere and prepared for any eventuality she might find along the way.

No two field agents follow the same path to join the Pathfinder Society, nor the same path once they embark on their first expedition. The Society's treacherous missions require all types of adventurers, from seasoned combatants to ruin delvers and experts in the occult. Some field agents are highly specialized, filling a single role in a larger group of Pathfinders, while others branch out into a broad range of abilities.

This field agent seeks the thrill of discovering lost treasures from the Inner Sea's many ancient ruins. She scouts ahead for her team, keeping an eye out for enemies, traps, and other dangers. In fights, she is cautious and practical, preferring to stay mobile and out of sight. She sneaks in for a finishing blow when victory is certain.

Siora Qinndove

An heir to two wealthy families, Siora grew up used to getting her own way. But Siora wound up becoming interested in archeology and the act of investigating every nook and cranny of an unknown artifact.

Pathfinders

Source Character Guide pg. 126 2.0
Many of the greatest explorers and adventurers of the modern age have recorded their discoveries in an ongoing series of chapbooks known as the Pathfinder Chronicles, published irregularly by the Pathfinder Society itself. This diverse group is devoted to exploring the world, supporting its agents in the field, and ensuring the discoveries they make are documented. The Society often finds itself in conflict with the more mercenary Aspis Consortium. The Pathfinder Society's pursuit of discovery often puts its agents in the thick of developing plots, forcing them to choose between being heroes or villains as events unfold.
