《探索者编年史》是有探索者协会汇编协会成员最著名的历程和发现而出版的一系列叙事史诗书集。虽然全世界的探索者都会向当地的冒险队长提交他们的冒险日志，但是最终神秘的十人会将内部决定到底谁的冒险经历能获此恩赐进入探索者编年史的荣耀篇章。
探索者编年史的副本仅会提供给协会成员，虽然有些卷篇已经流入到了公共领域。这些卷篇不仅可以作为成就的记录，而且可以激励遍布全世界的年轻人和未来的探索者们，并且增加编年史中那些旅程细节的名声。一些评论称探索者协会实际上是希望编年史的副本流传到尽可能广阔的世界中来作为吸引潜在的探索者加入协会的一种手段。最终，让自己的发现永远留存在编年史中就是大部分探索者最大的野心。
阅读编年史
每个探索者据点被要求至少要有一卷编年史收藏，维持其作为协会分据点得按的地位，但是全部或几乎全部的收藏的收藏应供拜访的探索者借阅。很多探索者外勤探员会长期携带一或两卷编年史，或者是因为其中包含了和当下任务有关的信息，或者是因为对相关传说和历史的个人兴趣。探索者编年史可不仅仅是份好读物：许多经验丰富的探索者会分享他们成功的经验，而很多的冒险队长甚至宣称一名从任务中带着故事活着回来的探员，唯一该做的事就是读一读编年史。
阅读一份编年史副本会为一项或者多项技能检定上提供价值，具体加值由编年史的内容来定。每天花费至少1小时时间来阅读指定的卷篇后，阅读者堆在24小时内面对相应的特别情况时获得协助加值。紧急情况下，人物可以尝试在卷篇中快速定位相关信息，进行一次DC15的智力鉴定在1分钟内快速阅读，但是这么做所获得的任何加值都会减半（最低+1），除非另有说明，否则一份编年史通常由通用语（塔尔多式）写成，并且重1磅。
劇透 - :
The Pathfinder Chronicles are a serice of chapbooks published by the Pathfinder Society recounting the most notable journeys and discoveries of the order's members. Though Pathfinders the world over submit accounts of their deeds to their local venture-captains, the mysterious Decemvirate alone makes the final decision on whose adventures grace the Chronicles'illustrious page
Copies of the Patlifinder Chronicles are intended for members of the Society only, though some volumes have made their way into the public sphere. They serve not only as a record of accomplishments, but to inspire young and future Pathfinders throughout the world, all while increasing the renown of those whose journeys are detailed within. Some laim that the Pathfinder Society actually wants copies of the Patlifinder Chronicles to find their ways into the world at large as a means of attracting potential Pathfinders to seek membership in the organization. Ultimately, having one's discoveries immortalized in the Pathfinder Chroniclesstands among most Pathfinders' highest ambitions.
READING THE CHRON1CLES
Every Pathfinder Lodge is required to have at least one volume of the Patlifinder Chronicles in order to maintain its status as an official outpost of the organization, but most have complete or nearly complete collections for visiting Pathfinders to peruse. Many Pathfinder field agents carry one or two volumes with them at all times, either because the volumes contain information topical to a current assignment or because of personal interest in the history or tales of adventure within. Pathfinder Chronicles are more than just good reading: Many a seasoned Pathfinder credits the accounts of her predecessors with her success, and a good number of venture-captains swear that reading the Chronicles is all a Pathfinder needs to do to return from a mission with both her life intact and a tale of her own.
Reading a copy of a Patlifinder Chronicles volume grantsa bonus on one or more skill checks made in specific situations, as determined by the book's contents, which generally helps a Pathfinder deal with short-term obstacles in the field. Spending at least i hour each day reading a given volume grants a character the associated bonus (or bonuses) under the specified circumstances for 24 hours. If rushed, a character can attempt to locate pertinent information in a volume on hand by perusing it for 1 minute and succeeding at a DC Intelligence check. Any bonus gained in this way is halved (minimum +1). Unless otherwise noted, a volume of the Patlifinder Chronicles is written in Common (Taldane) and weighs 1 pound.

下列的《探索者编年史》不过是探索者们在冒险中最常遇到的卷篇中的几个罢了。这些卷篇都讲述了一个特别的传说，并会提供一组加值，在探索者在冒险中遇到类似情况时是一个巨大的帮助。GM们可以使用下面的格式，创造自己的《探索者编年史》的卷篇。
卷篇编号：单独一卷的编年史可能包含多部内容，所以使用编号比标题更合适。这些编年史只是偶尔会被发掘出来，并且通常都在封面和书脊上没有标注日期。
价格：如果这些卷册可以购买，那么标价就是该卷的售价。编年史通常都会在协会和分部免费翻阅，然而极少会借给探索者用于外勤探险（外勤特工可以，然而需要花费价格来制作副本），盗窃协会据点的编年史是重罪，犯者将会被逐出协会。
描述：描述该卷的内容和历史意义。
技能加值：参考编年史的指南而获得的技能鉴定支持，当符合技能检定的条件时，给予加值，除非另有说明，编年史给予环境加值。当遇到的探索者编年史在这里没有详细内容时，请咨询战役设定：内海世界指南 293页

VOLUME 1
Price 200gp
The premier Pathfinder Chronicles volume (first published in 4317AR) features an account of Durvin Gest's exploration of the ruins of Azlant, details of Selmius Foster's race against a marid and an efreeti, and Gregaro Voth's adventures in the Mwangi Expanse.
SKILL BONUSES
Deal with geniekind more effectively (Diplomacy and Knowledge [planes] +2)

SKILL BONUSES
Navigate the many treacherous dungeons beneath and within the Ca irnlands' siege castles (Knowledge [dungeoneering] +2)
Travel on a river with more efficiency and safety (Profession[sailor] +2)
VOLUME 11
Price 100gp
This volume, when originally published, contained a trove of misinformation on dragons, penned by Pathfinder Dalania Pontius. After these errors precipitated numerous deaths and countless injuries among Pathfinders confronting dragons of all types, the Decemvirate investigated Pontius's sources (namely the brass dagon who had provided her with much of the false info) and found them suspect. The volume was eventually corrected, though some unaltered copies could still remainin obscure collections.
SKILL BONUSES
Better understand the nature and ways of dragons (Knowledge[arcana] +2)
Distinguish between true statements and exaggeration regarding esoteric topics (Sense Motive +2)
VOLUME 14
Price 150gp
The first volume of the Pathfinder Chronicles to contain only accounts of Pathfinders' exploits on other planes, the fourteenth volume features a record of Gilray jandivan's journey to 23 Abyssal realms and the cataloguing of the demonic hordes there, a detailed map of the City of Brass and surrounding a reas on the Plane of Fire by famed cartographer lnsitha Avari, and a full 70 baudy songs and limericks gathered over the course of the decade Rarick Dell spent in the court of a powerful satyr on the First World.
SKILL BONUSES
Deliver dirty jokes (Perform [comedy] +2)
Identify demons and other outsiders native to the Abyss (Knowledge [planes] +2)
Navigate the immense City of Brass and surrounding areas (Knowledge [geography] +2)
VOLUME 27
Price 150gp
This volume made quite a stir upon its release because it includes a good hundred pages of collected notes by famed Pathfinder Durvin Gest-who had disappeared over a centuryearlier. Many of these scraps recount only partial tales of danger and battle with little context, though one surprisingly complete chapter describes Gest's journey to the Crown of the World and his d iscoveries there. The portion of the book not consisting of Gest's notes features a treatise on negating the effects of magical trapsby contemporary Mistress of Scrolls Andirissa Belathax.
SKILL BONUSES
Navigate and follow tracks in a rctic environments (Survival +2)
Notice and disable magic traps with surprising alacrity (Disable Device + 2 and Perception +2)
VOLUME 44
Price 200gp
Published in 4707 AR, this volume is notable for the detailed account by Koriah Azmeren of her exploration of the Darklands. Her confirmation that the legendary draw were in fact real drove the elves of Kyonin-who had maintained the secret of the drow's existence for millennia-to attempt to bribe the Decemvirate into recalling and a ltering the book. The Society didn't relent, however, making the existence of dark elves a widely accepted fact within only a few years' time. Other reports in this volume include a brief essay by current venture-captain Sheila Heidmarch regarding ancient relics of the old empire of Thassilon.
SKILL BONUSES
Identify drow and their customs, weaknesses, and tactics (Knowledge [local] +2)
Learn about Thassilonian artifacts (Knowledge [history] +2)
Navigate the tunnels of the Darklands and identify Darklands natives (Knowledge [dungeoneering] + 2 and Knowledge [geography] +2)
