I've seen lots of threads on people coming from 3.x or even AD&D to Pathfinder or coming from 4E to Pathfinder... but what I've not seen much of is a discussion of how best to introduce Pathfinder to someone who's played no RPGs whatsoever.
My wife has played one session of Pathfinder back in November, but the campaign didn't take off because, well, we had a baby and didn't have time.
Anyway, that's her only exposure to RPGs, other than a recent addiction to Fable2, which does nothing for tabletop skill.
What are some things you've done, thought of doing, or heard of doing to help complete novices learn Pathfinder?
We are a rules-light group that focuses on adventure and story and experience more than crunch, so I think that will help. She finds a lot of the rules and stats a bit intimidating.
It also helps that the DM's wife is playing and has experience in 3.x.
Thoughts? Links? Rotten tomatoes?
