"well my commencement went well. now time to find a new mission."
looking for another SFS game to run in.

The GM Trade keeps rolling as Strawberry Machine Cake's Zoey finishes her Starfinder training, along with a couple classmates.
Who's gonna graduate with her, with them, and become BSFFF*?

Recruiting 3 Starfinders for SFS #1-01: The Commencement (a Starfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 1-2)
---> The Commencement <---
(say if you are new to PbP)

All Starfinders complete their training by conferring with Guidance—a network of uploaded personalities embodying paragons from the Starfinder Society's history. Before receiving the blessing of Guidance, the PCs must meet with and assist critical missions on behalf of key leaders of the Society's leading factions. With the events of the Scoured Stars Incident still fresh in everyone's memory, there's plenty that needs doing to set the Society back on track.

Thanks all!

Around the room, a number of Starfinder's personal communicators start to beep at the same time.

Mordin, Savoy, Pangea-Zeta, Vikrahn "Mouth", Baskoro, Waiola all glance down, and then look around the room before standing and heading off toward the Lorespire Complex

Your shuttle to The First Mandate is now ready to depart.

I'm interested in being a player in the Starfinder games. I've completed 1-04.

I'm recruiting just one player to round up the party for 1-02 Fugitive on the Red Planet. Recruitment thread is here.

I'll open the recruitment for about a day or so. Selection would be based on party balance (although less critical since there is no starship combat for this scenario), your past posting history, and how well I envision your character would fit with the existing ones. And I do tend to lean towards players new to the PFS/SFS ecosystem.

Thanks!

A clanking robot wearing an oversized knife by its side walks in, humming to the tune of strawberry machine cake. STAR SUGAR HEART LOVE he sings monotonically (but loud), then makes an awkward impersonation of Zoey Strawberry HELLO EVERYBODY! THIS IS FULLY AUTONOMOUS AND VERSATILE DICEBOT! DICEBOT HAS THREE SETTINGS FOR MAKING CAKE! DICEBOT WILL WORK VERY HARD TO MAKE EVERYBODY CHEERFUL. PLEASE SHOW DICEBOT LOTS OF LOVE!

DICEBOT HAS THREE TICKETS FOR A TRIP TO THE DRIFT. WHO WANTS TO COME WITH DICEBOT?

Recruiting for 1-04 - Cries from the Drift. I have three spots, that can be claimed here (link)

A bright eyed kid academy-aged kid wanders in. "Any missions out there for a newly commenced agent?"

looking to play Fugitive on the Red Planet. Also willing to do a GM exchange.

I'll be on vacation 18-28 Dec (Island hopping the South Pacific) but would be open to GM'ing sessions after that...

Sign-Up Sheet

Recruiting for Commencement and Fugitive on the Red Planet. Sign Up sheet is above. Will go once have a full table.

Hmpf, I cannot find 'Paizo Fan' or 'Luckless hero' as Paizo accounts. As a general remark, can you please use your primary paizo alias when you sign up on the spreadsheet?

Remove the space between Luckless and Hero: lucklesshero

Note: I am not that player, but have seen them around on the forums.

PM'd my search results to you.

Hello everybody! a pre-recorded video message shows on the screen this is Strawberry Machine Cake's Bright and Sparkling Zoey! I'm currently in the Down-Low, visiting a fan who is tending his plants. They're green and stalky, so they're totally not tomatoes!

My manager just told that I can give away three tickets for our concert on Apostae! You can sign up here (link)! We have a special show with fireworks!

Recruiting three spots for newly released 1-06 A night in Nightarch. Please sign up on the spreadsheet that I linked above, and then head straight for the gameplay thread (link) to start the game. The three seats go to the three players that have signed up on the speadsheet, so please do that first to prevent disappointment

@Kludde:
I would be highly interested when you run a level 1 again.

New games will be coming up soon, but I'm still trying to fill that 306 game.

Pregens welcome!

This is a cross-post from Flaxseed, since a Starfinder game is involved. I posted it there several hours ago, and should have also posted here.

Guys, I am finding that I need to run fewer games in order to do a good job on a backstage project I'm really excited about for the Lodge. Is there someone who would be willing to take over one of the following games for me:

1. A non-PFS game of the Ironfang Invasion. I have two tables of this, and I have found that I can't enjoy two tables of the same thing at the same time. They are all redeemed monsters, powered down to about 15 RP. They are a drow, a drider, a bugbear, and a lizardwoman. They are finding unusual solutions using their races, and it's a fun game.

2. A campaign mode table of the Starfinder Adventure Path. Because it's campaign mode, I've opened up a lot more races.

Please PM me if you're able to help.

Thanks so much to everyone who considers this, even if they're not able to help. (There was originally one more Pathfinder game included, but someone already offered to take care of that game.)

The lodge intercom springs to life again

<Hello Everybody! To celebrate the preview special package edition of our christmas single, we are holding a special fan event, and are giving away entry tickets. Double the entries, double the fun!>

Recruiting for scenarios 1-02 Fugitive on the Red Planet and 1-05 The First Mandate. Grab your tickets here (link).

Don't see a sign up sheet for 1-05 there, but I'd like to sign up with this character...

DRAT! 1 EXP short of going on the 3-6, and to slow to get a slot on 1-5 guaranteed. Well, I put my name on your reserve list, just in case.

A moustachioed technician comes in to fix the message board, removes a neon 2 and puts it back upside down, so that it looks more like a 5.

Looks like there's more interest for 1-05 than there is for 1-02. I'll open a second table instead of that 1-02 run. I've put the reserve players on there, and there's three more spots open - I'll start the first table before I start this one, so expect first somewhere next weekend.

@Glitch: that character is already in my 1-04 game. You can't play both at the same time, perhaps you'd like to use a different character?

sure..... I thought 1-04 would be done before you started 1-05... but I have another character I can run in 1-05, thanks.

Hooray! Now just tell me where to go for gear and her crew to sign in!

Any GM's interested in starting over at Commencement? Would like to get into PbP and looking for Commencement but would be willing to try any level 1-4 scenario to get my feet wet.

This is my 701 character and I'd like to get the evergreens out of the way so I'm hoping for a commencement game too.

Now that I've played a bunch of Starfinder and other PbP games here on the boards, I'm feeling like its time to give back by running some of my own. As a result, I'll be running a table of SFS 1-01 The Commencement.

Sign ups are here.

@Mustachioed: I will hold an open spot for you for a couple of days since you're a PbP newbie, but since I'd like to start soonish, I'll open it up on Saturday if you don't claim it.

As a heads up: While I'm not new to GMing, I AM new to GMing for PbPs and for PFS/SFS. Thankfully, I've had the chance to play under some great GMs and have learned a lot about how to present things in text format from them. But, like any new endeavor, things may be a bit bumpy as I work things out for myself. Fair warning if you're expecting GM-ing perfection :>

Also, if any of you more experienced GMs see something wonky in how I've set things up, just give me a shout.

Thanks so much! And your game is full already. There is definitely a demand for these intro adventures!

Yep, filled up in a flash.

Your shuttle to the Lorespire Complex will be ready to go shortly. Please check in at the discussion thread HERE.

For anyone who was interested but missed out on this particular run, if this all goes well I may be starting another one sometime soon. Looks like the evergreen nature of 1-01 means that demand is not dried up.

Dang!! Missed it!

Time to officially start my run as a starfinder society GM. Planning to start in the first week of January. Starting off with the Commencement.

Time to officially start my run as a starfinder society GM. Planning to start in the first week of January. Starting off with the Commencement.

Recruitment Sheet

Looks like your recruitment is already full but I put my name at the bottom just in case.

Getting a bit more momentum for the GM Trade idea, if you're interested in participating, PM me with the following:

GM Alias
Scenario / AP / Quest you want to GM (first pick)
Scenario / AP / Quest you're willing to GM
Estimated GM Start Date

Scenario / AP / Quest you want to Play (first pick or Anything)

(If anyone has any suggestions for info to add, let me know.)

I'm creating a Google Sheets to track GM / Playing preferences, and Trades, and will send the link to participating GMs (will give Edit privileges when things get rolling.)

Obviously there will be a "Gentle-beings" agreement for the Trade. RL happens even after trades are started, though hopefully we're all adults here and can sort things out. Sound good?

Happy New Year everyone! I'm just about ready to start dipping into GMing some SFS games and have signed up onto the GM trade list in case any other GMs are still up for it. If yes, let me know!

Either way, I'll throw up a game recruitment thread in a few days or so!

Is there anyone who is willing to GM SFS S01-03: Yesteryear's Truth?
I will like to play that scenario.

Unless another GM offers it sooner, I would be happy to run it, Dyukela. I'll post up a recruitment thread in a few days after I've had a chance to do some scenario prep. Will keep a spot open for you!

Hey Dyukela, X5NSA and I would both be interested in 1-04, Cries from the Drift, would you be interested in that one, and maybe we can talk GMbigboom into it instead?

I currently play 1-04, Cries from the Drift.

Tnx, GM bigboom!

There's a strong possibility that I will have 1-2 slots for Cries from the Drift starting next week...

At this point I will sign up for any adventure, but I was hoping a 1-05 would pop up to do the second seekers main quests. But haven't seen any of those yet.

I'm hoping for 1-05 as well :).

Looking forward to 1-04 as well

Is there anyone who is willing to GM SFS S01-03: Yesteryear's Truth?

I will like to play that scenario.

I am new to PbP, but have been playing SFS pretty regularly at LFGS since it started. I missed this one when it was run locally and would love to play it.

There's a strong possibility that I will have 1-2 slots for Cries from the Drift starting next week...

If you have 2, then X5NSA and I would like to join in.

If you only have the one slot, we'll pass, as we want to play together.

I can play a different iconic if needed, or a non-iconic even, hahaha.

I’d be keen for SFS as well. Haven’t had a chance to play it yet, only GM.

Hello all,

I haven't GM'ed SFS or PFS but I'll be adding my name to the SFS GM pool.

First adventure I will be running is Into the Unknown. I'd like to this to be done with non-pregens and intend to run the complete 5 part mini-series (preference given to those that can do the whole series). I'll be creating a sign up next week. There will likely be some reserved spots and I'll lotto the remaining seats.

Addendum:
I'll likely run it again once the first table has completed it if there is high demand for this evergreen.

I'm assuming there are now people running 1-03 & 1-04 per the conversations above. I have a bit of free bandwidth, was there much call for another scenario?

Into the Unknown (mentioned in the post after mine) is no good for me but I’ll take literally anything else.

I was hoping to start with The Commencement with this character but I could easily go for Into the Unknown instead.

1-05 would be appreciated.

1-05 would be appreciated.

As a Second Seeker, I am also hoping to see a 1-05 open at some point.
