Helloo? GM?


How should we go about contacting the GM?

Grand Lodge

Hello everyone, I will most likely take over this game =)

We aren't clear on the details, but as far as we know, GM Aeon was in a car accident two/three weeks ago, s/he was not injured, but her/his laptop did not survive, 10 days later, GM Aeon dropped off grid.

Two things I want to be clear about before I complete this 'boarding', this will be a slow posting week for me, i'm heading out on a trip next thursday, I'm not sure if I'll have web capabilities on the small town I'm visiting. Next, if you want to stick with me for this game, please read on the info on my profile, I'll make a post a bit later here so we can begin =)

I can see only three players found their way from the sign up sheet to this game, I'll contact the rest to see if they are still in. If not I may need to find one or two more, even after we have started. =)

All that said, do you have any questions for me?

Dot! Sorry to hear about the car accident, but thanks for picking up the game. Keep us posted if you hear more.

This PC needs to be finished up here on the boards, and it might take a couple days to get the time together to do so, so no worries about a fast start for me.

Thanks!

We've have been given the green light by GM HMM to get this ball rolling =)

Since I can't edit the campaign to open the Discussion thread, yet, we will use the recruitment thread for that. That's where I'll paste links to pictures, maps, etc, or whatever we may need. That way we can keep this Gameplay thread for gameplay, and the occasional [ooc within a post.

I'll make a post over there to ask a couple questions =)

You have all received an electronic summons from Venture Captain Arvin, inviting you to the briefing for an urgent Society mission. The meeting is set to start on 17 Lamashan 317 AG, you barely have 12 hours to finish any errands and get some beauty rest before heading on to the Lorespire Complex.
___________________________

When you finally get to the VCs office, you get to meet the group you are, most likely, traveling with.

Use this time to give a description of your character, physical and classes or abilities.

A small—even for a Ysoki—silver-furred being scurries towards the Lorespire Complex. She stops for a moment, reaches inside her cheeks, and pulls a smallish object out of her mouth and glares at it. She returns the round object to her cheek pouches and continues on towards her destination.

When she arrives she shows the summons and is hustled towards the VC's office. Noticing noone around she sits down on the floor and starts messing with a cylinder with a button on top and several of the round objects she pulls out of her cheek pouches.

Tall, silver haired and eyed, and with silver circuitry running under violet skin, Renyaale cuts through the crowd around the Lorespire complex, enters the gates, and introduces herself to Arvin's secretary, sharing the text of the summons on her comm device.

When she reaches the ready room, Renyaale greets Kandoon with a quick nod, then leans her pulsecaster rifle against the wall and lounges on one of the couches. Turning to the ysoki, she asks, "You been with the Starfinders long?"

Kandoon looks up from what she's fiddling with to say in a muffled tone, "Mmff been..." she sighs and spits out a bunch more of the objects and the says again in a clear voice "I've been with them for a couple of months...you?"

A figure in heavy, deep-purple hued armor walks into the office's waiting room just as Kandoom introduces herself. Reaching two hands up to unclasp the full helm of its armor, the new arrival removes the slitted helmet to reveal a pale, almost white, skinned face with hair shaved close to the scalp.

"Kandoon Scramble Boom. A...unique name. One imagines your family has quite the curious history."

The figure extends a gauntlet covered hand out towards Kandoon, then another toward the android. His eyes seem an especially dark shade of brown, with the iris threatening to blend into the pupil. "I am Orion. Apologies for my appearance: I only recently arrived back from Drift travel and have not had the opportunity to re-dress."

Kandoon chuckles briefly and reaches paws out, not realizing she's still holding what can clearly be seen is a grenade. She hastily stuffs it into her cheek pouch and shakes Orion's hand with both her paws. She says in only a slightly muffled voice, "Its not so much a family name as a description of my...erm....tactics. Nice to meet ya Orion!"

She similarly reaches out her paws towards the first being to join her in this antechamber.

Jaka enters the VC office rather later than the others, nodding to each of the them without apology. His helmet under one arm, the iridescent teal coloured Shirren stands in the center of the room and says gruffly, and perhaps a bit self-consciously, "Jaka. New here."

As he waits, he idly fiddles with the tactical baton at his hip, the weaponry and heavy armor looking rather at odds with the religious icon of The Devourer attached to his breastplate.

Are there no Starfinder avatars available yet? If so, I can't seem to find them.

Grand Lodge

As far I know, Starfinder avatars have not been implemented. So it will be hard to get an actual character representation for a bit. Whit this said, let's begin the fun. (I noticed one of the recruited players made it into Discussion, so if the other makes it while we are briefing we will have 6 players.)

You have all made yourself comfortable in the chairs and couches in this well-lit and blue-carpeted office. The doors to the office slide open with a soft pneumatic hiss as Venture-Captain Arvin, a handsome and determined-looking damaya lashunta, steps inside in apparent hurry.

As soon as the doors open he says “Apologies, please stay seated if you like, although this shouldn’t take long.”. Arvin sits behind a desk, his eyes riveted on a glassy display, the VC taps a button on a console and murmurs to a digital assistant, “Croyd, put everything on hold for a few minutes. If anyone calls, please explain I’m in mission briefing and I’ll get right back to them.” He then darkens the display to give his full attention.

“Right. I have an assignment for you. This one is a little a different than others you might have received.” He pauses before he explains, “It’s an internal matter.

“You’re probably aware that after the Scoured Stars incident many of our colleagues elected to leave the Society. That is unfortunate, but not surprising. We hate to lose good field agents, but no one is conscripted into our ranks. Normally we wish them well and that’s that. In this case, the defector, former field agent Reynald Talbot, stole an artifact from the Lorespire Complex before departing. Theft is where the Society draws the line; I need you to get that artifact back.

“Unfortunately, Talbot left weeks ago and we only discovered the theft in the last 24 hours. We launched an immediate investigation to determine the identity of the thief and their last known whereabouts. It’s our bad luck that Talbot was smart enough to get off the station and head to Akiton, where there’s no central government or law enforcement to easily call upon. I need you to track him down and recover the artifact. We know Talbot caught a shuttle to the Akitonian city of Maro, so that’s a great place to start. Time is of the essence and the Society will, of course, cover your travel expenses.”

Before Arvin enters, the violet-and-white android introduces herself to the others with a polite wave, but no physical contact. "I'm Renyaale - don't mind me, just keeping out of the way until you need me to do otherwise."

- - - - - - - - - -

After Arvin's description, Renyaale nods, then stands and shoulders her longarm. "I haven't been to Akiton for a while, and never set foot in Maro when I did. I assume you've got a ship for us to use? Would hate to lose time slumming it on a big transport."

Many of us are new Jaka. If there is a silver lining to the Scoured Stars tragedy, perhaps it is that a more intimate-sized Starfinder force could develop closer ties... 0-Rion muses, but cuts himself off as the Venture Captain enters.

He listens concernedly to Arvin's explanation, waiting for the lashunta to finish before adding his own thoughts.

Is Akiton really that bad that it lacks any order? I had heard it had hit harder times but had no idea the situation was so dire on a Pact world.

He cocks his head sightly to the left. And we are sure this Talbot intended to steal this item permanently? There is no chance this is a misunderstanding? I would imagine some mission data may have been lost in the aftermath of the Incident.

Kandoon's nose twitches and she runs her paws through her whiskers. "Well, I'm pretty used to going where I'm told with my time as common soldier. What was stolen...and do you need it back in one piece?"

The VC puts his hand to his chin, deep in thought, "Akiton's economy crashed hard as most communities relied on pre-Drift fuel mines for a living.

“About Talbot, there's no chance this is a misunderstanding, he’s smart, capable, a bit brash, and a reasonable field agent. Talbot is also self-entitled and ambitious. After the Scoured Stars incident, he expected to be promoted to venture-captain, but the Forum felt he needed more time. He got angry. We think this theft is retaliation.”

Kandoon "Scramble Boom" wrote:
"Well, I'm pretty used to going where I'm told with my time as common soldier. What was stolen...and do you need it back in one piece?"

He replies “Good question, but the answer is complicated because it’s actually two questions: what the artifact is and what Talbot thinks it is.

"We’re operating under the assumption that Talbot thinks he’s stolen an object from old Golarion called a philosopher’s stone. Legend has it that the stone could transmute matter, among other properties. What Talbot actually stole was recently re-cataloged as a charlatan’s stone. It does something similar, except the effect is a potent illusion and only temporary. We think ancient con artists used to make false gold.”

"Not the type of task I'm used to, but I guess that's why I signed up with the Society. You can only do the same thing for so long." He grunts and then asks, "So, does Talbot need to be in one piece? I'm not a fan of... removing people from the equation."

Grand Lodge

"To be clear, I want the stone back. Talbot’s not worth the expense of dragging back here, so you can do whatever you think is necessary with him. That said, you don’t have a license to go on a mass
killing spree. Don’t make the Society look bad. It might be tough to do on Akiton, but don’t take that as a challenge.”

Centian thinks for a second.

"It sounds like the stone will end up being more dangerous for whoever uses it wrongly. Wouldn't this matter take care of itself eventually? It sounds like Talbot wants to embezzle people. I'm sure he'll end up embezzling the wrong people at some point, and they'll take care of him.

Kandoon starts to speak but looks over at Centian as he lays out his question. She glances a quick round of the room and nods agreement towards Centian. "That's a real good question there. But I'm also fairly sure they're willing to pony up the time and money if they already gathered us here."

But what about the 'right' people fooled along the way? Orion asks. If he is deceiving people, using our own resources to do so...I at least can understand why you want an end put to this Captain Arvin.

Is there a way to see what I may know about either the rogue Talbot or the city of Maro?

Centian wrote:
"...But is the society sure it wants to spend resources on this?"

“We need to make a statement. Rumors of the theft are already circulating through the Society, and it’s important to send a message that we’re not going to tolerate that type of betrayal. Also, if we don’t react, we convey that our work is not very important because it’s not worth defending. That said, the charlatan’s stone is not worth dying over, so be careful.”

The Captain turns his chair around and stands up, "Before you leave for the ship, you should all know that Akiton has a thin atmosphere, and we don’t have the luxury of giving you weeks to get used to it. It would be smart to make sure you some way of coping with it, or some armor. Any armor, even the lighter sets, offsets the difference. You should pass through a few merchants on the way to the your shuttle. This is all the intel we currently have, make the most of it, we expect great things from you all!”

There is some Knowledge to Recall, that's why I asked about Knowledge checks on Discussion =P

Akiton Culture Rolls:
Centian's Culture (Unt.): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Jaka's Culture (Unt.): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18
Kandoon's Culture (Unt.): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
0-Rion's Culture: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Renyaale's Culture: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Everyone, but Renyaale, knows basic information about the Pact World of Akiton. It is smaller than the Golarion standard with ×1/3 gravity and a thin atmosphere. This means non-acclimated characters, like the PCs, can jump three times as high and carry three times the normal weight, although they gain no additional movement speed. Likewise, unless they wear any type of armor, the PCs must succeed at hourly Fortitude saves or become fatigued. You also know Akiton suffered an economic crash when the revelation of Drift technology rendered the numerous pre-Drift fuels mined on Akiton virtually worthless.

0-Rion additionally knows the following:

Spoiler:
Akiton is generally lawless, except for whatever laws a local authority might impose. Akiton survives on trade and commerce. Strangers find loyalty hard to come by, especially in the big cities. Newcomers are consequently likely to be observed and watched, especially if an organization believes it can take advantage of the strangers. If Talbot acted or did anything at all out of the ordinary, someone is likely to have noticed. To avoid being found, it is unlikely he stayed in Maro for more than a few days.
Wealth is hard to come by on Akiton. If Talbot fled to the red planet, he did so for a reason. It’s likely the ex-Starfinder had a plan, and that plan involved gaining a large number of credits. Given Akiton’s unstable economy, such a surge should be identifiable for those who “follow the money.”

________________________________________
________________________________________

After a couple days in the Drift, your shuttle goes back to regular space, outside the observation windows floats Akiton, a world the color of blood, rust, and red clay. A thick shell of white caps both poles. The shuttle descends toward the planet, and a barely perceptible shift in gravity occurs as the ship’s artificial gravity begins to lessen and the planet’s natural gravity begins to take hold.

From suborbital heights, a handful of small towns, large complexes, and industrial sites that spew noxious fumes into the thin atmosphere surround the trench city of Maro. A spidery web of dirt roads scratched into the rust-colored ground by regular traffic connects these sites to the metropolis.

Maro, the so-called City of Lights itself, comes into view as the ship begins its final descent. The city occupies more of a vertical space than horizontal, built into a six-mile-long section of trench that is half as deep and a half mile wide. Entire neighborhoods and business districts are built into the walls, accessed by patio entrances. Lights, neon signs, and holographic advertising bejewel either side of this urban canyon, while an active spaceport and industrial zones occupy the ground level. As the shuttle lands, it does so beneath the backdrop of an immense mural of brightly glowing neon-green graffiti that reads in Common: “Git Out! Planet’s Broke!”

The Starfinders' goal in Maro is to determine where Talbot hid out after he arrived on Akiton. How do you want to proceed in investigating Talbot’s arrival? Since I think most of us are still newish to SFS, this could be, for example, Gather Information, Culture or some Profession Checks. But if you'd like to try another approach, we can try and make it work =)

Kandoon is +4 to Profession (mercenary) so could roll for that to try gather info from maybe a previous contact.

Profession (mercenary): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16

Kandoon stretches and yawns from her corner of the starship and looks around to see who else was near. She thinks to herself [/i]Akiton...I've been here before. Wonder if maybe some of the old dirtbags I knew here are still alive?[/i] She checks over her equipment, carefully stowing her grenades in her cheek pouches, arranged so she can still talk decently. She wanders over to where the most of her fellow Starfinders are and says, "Sho...whaffs tha pblan?"


Jaka also has Profession (Mercenary), at a whopping total of +12. Professional's tools is quite the nice item! I'm flavouring it to be a list of contacts and people he knows, as the CRB leaves it open-ended.

Centian feels confident in his companion's methods, and so sits calmly, waiting for the results.

Should they fail, however, Centian's intention is to log on to a computer and see if there are any... extraordinary bounties in the less reputable parts of the planet's network relating to Talbot.

Renyaale starts chatting with some of the locals, hoping to re-acquaint herself with the planet, as it's been several months since her last visit...

Culture: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

...and while it feels the same as her last visit, it's quickly clear that all of her experience in other parts of the world isn't enough to help her out in Maro. "For every city, a culture," she thinks to herself, then reconnects with the group to see if their mercenary contacts lead anywhere.

From what my missions have imparted to me, Akiton was not the most open-armed of planets even before their current situation. We will likely be observed and marked upon arrival: we form an...eclectic party. The android looks around at the rest of the gang as their ysoki begins eating grenades and the Devourer-branded shirren begins surfing his coms.

Still, Talbot is not from Akiton either. If he is looking to escape pursuit and lay low, he would likely need to keep moving. It is likely he has moved on from Maro, but a stranger with 'gold' would leave chatter behind. Perhaps we may find success looking for those who have recently had an unexpected windfall?

While Jaka and Kandoon hit up their professional contacts A very smart idea, Orion moves about the city's landing ports, trying to ask around about a man matching Talbot's description - and attitude.

I swear I did a post 10 hours ago, apparently the Internet swallowed it... =( but now that I'm here,
are you okay with 5 players or should we take in Dart (Recruitment tab)?

While still on your ferry the contacts for Kandoon and Jaka both provide very similar intel, so both are made aware of a strange anomaly. AbadarCorp, the largest corporation in the Pact Worlds, recently purchased a large amount of Drift engine fuel from the nearby, and former, mining town of Tasch. While the discovery of Drift engine fuel on Akiton is impressive, the fact that the AbadarCorp fleet that purchased the fuel is 2 days overdue for departure suggests something is likely amiss with the delivery.

Once on Maro, given the specific information the Starfinders possess, such as Talbot’s time of arrival and the specific shuttle he flew in on, you have a solid starting point from which you can learn considerably more. You discover that Talbot didn't stayed long in this city, you are given different whereabouts, but they all agree he went to a mining town.

By now, it's easy to conclude that Talbot travelled to Tasch, they can head to the nearby mining town. Getting transportation to Tasch is not difficult. You can rent a personal vehicle or catch a ride to the small former mining town—the Starfinder Society issued you a credstick for travel expenses.

After a journey lasting about two hours across Akiton's red dunes, a long dusty road, lined with single-story dwellings, runs through the town of Tasch. Some powered vehicles rest chained to their owner’s homes. A small general store stands near the center of town, illuminated by flickering white lights. Another building, full of locals, hosts a signpost that reads “Digger’s Dive” —clearly the town bar. Although the sun beats down on this desert town, its citizens meander around the bar in good cheer. Most are ysoki and humans, with the occasional lumbering fourarmed shobhad mingling among them.

You're up =P

It looks like a small town. We should be able to ask around for Talbot and find him quickly if he's still around. Do you have any contacts here, Jaka?

Kandoon squeaks in excitement as some of her contacts line up with Jaka's and at the information they discover about AbadarCorp's fuel shipment and delayed takeoff.

*****

Once she dismounts from the ride to Tasch, Kandoon shades her eyes and looks upon the dot of a town. She nods agreeably towards Centian and pipes in "Mmm bet we know some of same people." she says towards Jaka.

Kandoon will Aid Another on a Profession (mercenary) check for Jaka if they attempt one.

More the merrier, if you're fine with it (re: Dart)

Orion's conversations with the Maroers are somewhat fruitful, though vague on the details. He meets back up with the rest of the party somewhat dejected, though when they present their findings he is at least able to back up their theories: Talbot has fled to Tasch.

Disembraking from their ride to the small town, Orion looks around at the village inscrutably. He glances down at his own armor, painfully aware of how much it stands out amidst the rustic surroundings.

If not, I would suggest starting there. the android raises an arm to point towards 'Digger's'. Bars tend to not only be well-traveled, but full with looser lips.

Renyaale leads the group into Digger's. "Could use a drink after that trip," she deadpans. Once inside, she heads to the bar and orders up something potent to chat with the locals.
