I'm going to be running Pathfinder for the first time next weekend, for my step-son's birthday. Got the Beginner's Box and have bee slowly flipping through it in preparation.
Good luck! It's a lot of fun for a simple introduction. It'll only take you a few sessions to complete and get you to level 2. Do you have plans for after that?
I had been building custom setting in 5e for the fam, so if this goes well I'll probably just continue on to Troubles in Otari and graft the entire Otari region onto my setting.
That's a good plan. I think Abomination Vaults is the only other one set in Otari, but that might be too much depending on your step-son's age/maturity level.
Paizo has so much lore out there already, especially for Absalom, the mega-NYC next door to Otari. Plenty to incorporate into your world should you choose to do so.
Yeah, I'll probably be stealing stuff no matter what happens next. I tried to do an entirely custom campaign, but I haven't been able to design towns and dungeons quickly enough to keep up with play. So...
