GM Dinketry and the Dead Suns AP (Inactive)

So, Pathfinder/Starfinder difference:

Any weapon with the 'Operative' property gets the equivalent of Weapon Finesse for free. Idar has a +6 with his knife, not a +4. (His sword is still +4.)

Yup, and that goes for ANY class, not just operatives.

Pathfinder/Starfinder similarity:

My attack rolls are notoriously awful if I'm playing a martial character. Guess I should stick to wizards =P

New goal: We need to get Diamaante magic armor that appears like holovid armor, but still provides protection.

Well, give me enough batteries for my holoskin, and my clothes can look like whatever you want them to.

Pervs. ;)

Hubba hubba!

My attack bonus is the same as the technomancer's. Low levels be painful.

Let's be honest: there's no way the fine fantasy RPG tradition of feminine armor didn't translate to Starfinder.

I'm thinking estex "suits" that're more forcefield than cloth :)

I’d lump Barsoom as a sci fi setting one could try to use Starfinder on, and it certainly has scantily clad women. Although, despite what the movie showed, the women of Barsoom, Deja Thoris included, are not usually warriors in their own right.

Depends on how crazy you went with the characters - if all the PC's were earthmen it'd be a little unbalanced.

At least when you I roll this poorly, you don't feel bad for having taken the full attack. If you take a full attack and roll almost good enough, you think 'I should have just taken a single shot.'

True!

GM, I took a guarded step away last turn. I don't think the akata can take a full attack against me.

Oops, you’re right. I was using Pathfinder 5 foot steps! *bad GM*

Diamaante, give yourself 6hp back.

Thanks! I am still conscious then!

I hope everyone's Passover Seder or Easter basket was delicious and gut-filling. Or even that last meal that you had!

Just recovered from the food coma!

So how are we actually doing for health and other consumables?

Idar has used about half of his rifle bullets and a grenade, but still has all his HP/SP/RP.

Assuming this rest goes uninterrupted, Telion will be at half health and half RP.

And... half healing serums... brb, going to take on in gameplay chat.

Idar, I have you down one HP. I posted totals in the Gameplay thread.

That's right! I started the day down one because natural healing is slow.

I will be on vacation from tomorrow until Monday, April 16th. I will try to post when I can, but updates will be sporadic until I return. GM, please bot me if necessary.

Thanks for the update. Happy vaykay!

Fun stats time!

Telion has rolled an average of 9.6 on the die on all of his attack rolls since the beginning of the game. However, since boarding the Acreon, this number has dropped to 5.93. Fortunately, his attack rolls don't directly impact his ability to absorb hits to the face.

Just so it's clear, no complaints, just amusing.

Congratulations y'all, you just unlocked a minion! A goblin minion, but a minion, nonetheless.

I'll mock up a character sheet for Jagjug shortly. He's a mechanic - that might answer your question as to why he was able to lock the dormitory door, Telion.

*hee hee hee* the evil GM laughs.

My second child is being born tomorrow. I'll be doing my best to check in and post, but please DMPC as necessary.

Congrats! We're still overwhelmed with our first :D

And no big deal, I figured there was something to that effect. I was just expressing my character's confusion.

Also.. goblin minion = best minion. Can we get him a red shirt?

Mazel tov! Our first daughter turns 2 next month, and we are expecting the arrival of our second in July. :)

Y’all are so fertile!

Also, our little one is 16mo old and I still have no clue what I’m doing.

My little man is 8, and I just made him cry. The cat scratched him, and he didn’t like the fact that I attributed it to he had just been teasing the cat, so it wasn’t the cat’s fault at all.

Congrats Idar!

Rolling for stats, or point buy?

I’m going to be out of town attending a wedding for the next week from today. Please bear with me as posts won’t come as frequently.

No rush, have fun!

Enjoy!

I’ll be back online 100% tomorrow. Thanks for your patience, y’all.

It's the party's choice: one of you can nominate yourselves to play Jagjug, or I can play him as an NPC. Just let me know which you'd prefer.

I can't post frequently enough to cover an extra character, so definitely not it. =P

Not it! NPC the beast!

Just to highlight the gravity of the situation: Telion does not have enough RPs to auto-stabilise, and has just 2 RPs. Once he loses those, he is permanently dead.

I thought we covered last time (wow, I drop a lot), that it takes 1 RP to auto-stabilize (1/4 my max, minimum 1, maximum 3), as indicated on page 251.

Also, does this bypass stamina? Cause if not, I should be at 13 hp and 0 stamina, right?

ARRRRGH. Man did I screw this one up a ton.

I'll fix this in the Gameplay thread.

Does this mean August didn't get to look awesome?

Telion, I had you at 10/14 SP prior to the trap springing. Now, you're at 0 SP and 9 HP (you were down 2 HP as well).

And yes, we already covered things. I don't know why that stupid typo about needing to spend 3 RP to stabilise is stuck in my head. WON'T GET OUT.

Sigh.

I'm better now. August still looked awesome, I'm sure.

I took 4 damage from the surprise goblin attack, but then Diamaante used inspiring boost to restore my stamina (first action in round 1). Is there an easy way to link to a particular post?

Also, no problems. We're all learning Starfinder here. :D

Darn. You’re right. Stupid vacation. Ruining my mojo.

Just a quick FYI. I’m taking Cub Scouts camping this weekend, so don’t expect much from me until Sunday evening.

Thanks for the FYI!

Sorry guys, I've been sick this last week and barely making it out of bed. I'm reading up on all the posts I've missed now.
