New Pathfinder Society Scenario Adds Goblin Metaplot and Maps

Paizo posted a new Pathfinder Society scenario on January 1 that will arrive in the store on January 7, 2026. Titled Pathfinder Society Scenario #7-09: The Chitterwood Walks, Part 1: Scrambling the Tribes, the $5.99 scenario is written by Genevieve Rudat Olejnik and is designed for organized-play tables. The product listing identifies the adventure as part of the Year of Battle's Spark metaplot, and it is tagged Repeatable for single level band play.

The scenario places play in the Chitterwood forest as goblin tribes react to a growing threat. Longshanks of Isger is gathering troops, including Hellknights, while undead attacks have begun to escalate in the region. The Crookedtoes tribe has requested Pathfinder Society protection, and larger tribal leaders are convening to decide how to respond. Those plot beats set up social negotiation, regional politics, and combat encounters that can slot into ongoing Year of Battle's Spark campaigns or run as stand-alone session cycles.

Organized-play GMs and players will find practical value in the product’s structure. Being repeatable makes the scenario suitable for tables that want replayability within Pathfinder Society rules, and the single level band designation clarifies the intended character power range for the module. The scenario page notes that maps are included with the product, and additional scenario maps are available for purchase separately from Paizo’s store, giving GMs flexibility in how they stage encounters and present terrain to players.

For groups tracking the metaplot, this release advances tensions between Isgerian forces and local tribes while weaving in the supernatural threat of undead, offering fresh reasons for Pathfinders to intervene. For GMs who run convention-style sessions or weekly organized-play nights, the module’s repeatable nature and available map options make it useful both as a quick entry adventure and as a scene-setter for longer arcs. At $5.99, the scenario positions itself as an affordable addition for groups wanting to engage with goblin politics and the larger Battle's Spark thread as play continues into 2026.
