Arratoi is currently in the final battle of an Outpost game. I figure it will take about a week to wrap up. If the group doesn't mind waiting a bit, I'll have Arratoi ready as soon as that game finishes.

Alternatively, if GM Aerondor is okay with it, this group can get started first and once Arratoi is finished with his current scenario, I can check back in to see if its too late to join.

Or if either of the options above isn't acceptable, I can step down from playing this one. I see six players on the sign-up so this would still be a legal table with five players.

GM Aerondor, I'm totally fine with whichever of the three options above that you prefer. I apologize for the inconvenience!!

--------------------------

On a completely different note, @Medrick: I love that avatar!! Makes me laff!!

doting here, will report in when I am at work later tonight

Seeing as we have an envoy already I will bring the mechanic :)

There is no hurry to start if you are close to finishing up a scenario. We can go through the set-u phase of questions and answers and let folk finalize their boon slots.

Okay, thank you!! I'll post up my chronicle details after I've received my chronicle from the currently ongoing game. In the meantime, I'll work on posting up my gameplay intro and getting my avatar up on the slides!

Oh and just a FYI to the group, Arratoi does have the AbadarCorp Respect Boon and will slot it.

It's very helpful to have at least one person with that, but others who have it can also find a benefit in slotting it as well.

Thanks for the prod Aerondor! I'm currently traveling, and will be back tomorrow evening. I'll have my first gameplay post up then. Sorry for the delay. In the mean time here's my details.

I just sat down at work and posted. Then looked at my work emails (I know, great priories, right? haha) but I am being sent to a conference to present some research because a colleague had to cancel. I leave tomorrow! I will be traveling and conference things from Tuesday till Sunday. I plan to still post at least one per day but I normally post far more often.

My Outpost game has finished. Just waiting on the chronicle sheet so that I can get my paperwork up to date and post my character info here...

I've just received the chronicle from the Outpost game and so here's my up-to-date character info for this game!

Waking up every day to 10-15 new posts due to all you folks on the other side of the globe going crazy has been interesting. I'm used to being on the sending end of post flurries :>

haha, Normally I am the one running behind, being european, so seeing this is nice and pleasant

You are all ripping through this scenario. I know you have had some good rolls, but at this rate you'll be finished by the end of the week.

Yeah, it's kinda crazy how fast we're going. It feels a little like we're going *too fast*, like we're missing something that should be slowing us down.

No, actually, you've missed nothing. There were a number of other shops you could have visited in the Freemarket which you could have followed up. I dropped hints in the text about a few of them as you went past them, but you didn't really need them or follow up on most of them. The Free market part of the scenario is kind of cool that way. I'm playing through it with another table and the GM there is pretty much ignoring the flavor and just taking us through it by the nose which unfortunately loses some of the fun of the area.

Amazed with the speed of this scenario... it's good fun, but didn't expect it to go this quick

Good rolls, and a bit of luck with timing with my posting at work during some quiet moments. It certainly doesn't always work that way. I can easily slow things down a little, and combat often slows a lot.

We'll see how this last fight goes, with three (!) zombies when we were only fighting one before. Thankfully its a clear line of fire for everyone, Lynn included.

@Will - I'm starting to think about chronicles, so if you could drop me the details that would be very much appreciated.

There is just some RP close out to finish up. I know a number of you are keen to jump into your next scenario, so I've linked the chronciles up above.

Sorry about the date, when I wrote them up earlier in the week I gave a little more leeway about the finish. I can move it back to the 28th if you want, but that will take a little time and I thought you might prefer to get them now.

Thanks for that; the date doesn't bother me, since I am unlikely to play something with Will between now and then ;-)

The date works OK for me. I don't think anyone is going to pillory us if there's a little overlap on our PbP chronicles anyway.

No need to rush the RP either. I'm guessing based on the confused/desperate response from the two shirren earlier, they aren't some undead-making psychopaths. I'm pretty curious what exactly caused them to start making zombies in the first place.

I am in your next game Aerondor, so as long as the date doesn't interfere with that, then I am fine with the date! Thanks! I am in a rush, but I will look mine over when I get home!

Side note, are you allowed to wear professional clothes with armor on?

Probably not with powered armor, but light armor is supposed to be...well.. light. I'm not sure about a formal RAW reference for that though.

The summary of light armor is : For the character who doesn't want to be bogged down by more cumbersome armor types, a leather garment or some sort of concealable armor is just the ticket.

So that would imply at least some types are not noticeable. Though if you have it configured as your space suit that would probably be pretty obvious.

And session is reported.

Chronicle looks good and I looked it up, clothing is warn both under and over the armor (not sure what they mean by both but, either way, Medrick will be wearing his medic clothes all the time).

Awesome job guys! This was a fun one. Great GMing Aerondor. I look forward to running with you soon.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Your team certainly had your share of luck, but you took the chances offered. I have a vague feeling that I've misunderstood how "Dispiriting Taunt" is supposed to work. It doesn't seem a huge upgrade on just intimidating. The scenario also lists a DC for it, where as the CRB shows it as a skill check not something you save against.

Dispiriting taunt has longer range than demoralize, generally the same duration, and still grants a benefit even if the check fails. It's not a huge upgrade, no.

BTW, one thing I noticed earlier but figured I might as well leave it for the end of the scenario to comment on:

As a standard action, you can signal an ally within 30 feet who has taken damage from any attack made by a significant enemy (see page 242) at any point after your last turn ended. That ally regains a number of Stamina Points (up to his maximum) equal to twice your envoy level + your Charisma modifier; at 15th level, this increases to three times your envoy level + your Charisma modifier. Once an ally has benefited from your inspiring boost, that ally can’t gain the benefits of your inspiring boost again until he takes a 10-minute rest to recover Stamina Points. At 6th level, you can spend 1 Resolve Point to add your envoy level to the number of Stamina Points regained.

I don't think Inspiring Boost could have been used when we were hit by the lightning trap on Shenge's door. It can only be used on allies who have taken damage from an attack from a significant enemy since the end of your last turn. So, A) the trap wasn't an 'enemy', and B) you can't spend more than one standard action a turn (so once you do it once, the damage happened more than 1 turn ago the next time your turn rolls around).

GM Aerondor, thanks for the game! I enjoyed it! Like everyone else, I'm surprised at how quickly it went!

Lynn, thanks for pointing out the details of inspiring boost! I wasn't aware of some of the more specific caveats, so good to know!

Inspiring boost should probably have been restricted to one person. I'd have to re-read what constitutes a significant enemy, but I suspect a trap with a CR near your level would qualify.

Thanks for running this! Had a blast with this team of starfinders!

Thanks for the game everyone. I'm marking this as inactive now. Any final questions, drop me a PM
