Hello, Pathfinders and Starfinders! ๐ณ๏ธโ๐๐ก๏ธ๐
As we continue celebrating Pride Month, we’re reminded that our greatest adventures unfold when we embrace the full spectrum of who we are and welcome others to do the same. From the boldest paladins to the most cunning rogues, from tech-savvy mechanics to mystical solarians, our community shines brightest when every player feels empowered to bring their authentic self to the table. This month, as we honor courage, diversity, and inclusion, let’s continue building a space where every story matters and every hero has a place.
With exciting events just two weeks awayโincluding Free RPG Day and Southern-Fried Gaming ExpoโJune is shaping up to be an incredible month for our community…
๐ฃ Current Announcements & Updates
๐๏ธ Hall of Heroes:
Work is underway on the Hall of Heroes page. We’ve contacted the families of the two lodge members who have passed to ensure they’re comfortable with the project and to ask if there’s anything they’d like us to include—such as personal details or a photo.
๐ AtlantaPFS Lodge Survey:
Our first annual Lodge Survey is live! Please share your anonymous feedback to help us improve. Check out this post for more information and the survey link.
๐งพ New Feedback Forms:
We’ve launched several new feedback and support forms! You can now directly submit requests, feedback, or concerns here:

๐ Now Recruiting for DragonCon!
Applications are open for GM and HQ volunteers for DragonCon 2025! Help us represent Paizo Organized Play at one of the biggest geek conventions in the Southeast.
If you’ve already filled out our general volunteer form, you don’t need to fill it out again. Instead, please head over to the DragonCon 2025 Volunteering page and use the self-scheduling form located there.
โ ๏ธ A few notes:
Only select time slots you actually want to cover.
From the dropdown, select what you plan to cover (GM, HQ, etc.).
The form is set to auto-remove options once max capacity is reached, but occasional glitches may allow overbooking. If that happens, we’ll reach out and work with you to select an alternate option.

๐ง Closing Message
As Pride Month continues and we look ahead to exciting events just around the corner, we’re reminded that our community’s strength lies not just in the dice we roll or the adventures we share, but in the acceptance, support, and celebration we offer one another. Whether you’re exploring ancient ruins in Pathfinder or charting new worlds in Starfinder, remember that every table is a safe harbor where authenticity is welcomed and every hero’s journey is valued. May your adventures be legendary, your friendships endure, and your courage inspire others to step boldly into their own stories.
See you at the table.
