GM Khaoz 1-02 Fugitive On The Red Planet GD6 (Inactive)

Game Master KhaozKnight

Hello everyone, this will be our Discussion thread for any Out Of Character discussion, off-topic and anything that does not fit in Gameplay =)

Like it usually happens after a 'long weekend' today was crazy, but I'm ready to start.

Also, this is my usual night-posting time.

Cool, I'm on Eastern Standard Time, what's everyone else on?

I'm at GMT-5.

And I wanted to tell you guys, I did not post today because I was waiting for the newer 'recruits' to bounce along to try and fill our two open slots, in about 12 hours, I'll start the VC briefing, with our current 4 player and whoever manages to tag along =)

And.. just to leave this in the right place, I need everyone BUT 0-Rion and Renyaale, to answer the following for your chronicle sheets.

• Chronicle: What chronicle number this is for the character.
  
• History: What scenarios has the character completed? (or been credited with); any other chronicles (special boons etc).
  
• Name: (The player's) Real name (or however you want it to appear on your chronicle sheets).
  
• AKA: Character name.
  
• Faction: The faction you are slotting for this scenario.
  
• SFS: # for the character.
  
• XP: starting XP.
  
• Fame: Starting fame.
  
• Reputation: Starting reputation.
  
• Starting Credits: The wealth you bring into the adventure. This should be the total on your previous chronicle and the total before you make other purchases.
  
• Dayjob: Skill used + the roll.

Chronicle Number: #1 (I haven't done a society game yet for SF)
History: None
Name: Kiel Howell
AKA: Kandoon "Scramble Boom"
Faction: Wayfinders
SFS: 56335-701
XP: 0
Fame: 0
Reputation: 0
Starting Credits: 1,000
Day Job: N/A

Hey, everyone. Khaoz contacted me and it seems I'll be joining you for this scenario. Glad to make your acquaintance.

I'll be creating a Technomancer for this. I'll try to be as quick as possible in creating my characters so the start of the adventure is not delayed much.

And this will be my character for this adventure. My very first Starfinder Society character.

Hope the GM can add me to the campaign at his convenience.

Not sure which section you want this in, so I'll just quote it here.

Chronicle: 1
History: None
Name: Kiesman
AKA: Jaka
Faction: ExoGuardians
SFS: 260456-701
XP: 0
Fame: 0
Reputation: 0
Starting Credits: 47 cr
Dayjob: Profession (Mercenary) Dayjob: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23

And my Character Sheet for reference.

I was also wondering, under "Players" it has my main posting alias listed because originally I couldn't figure out how to post as Jaka (I'd never used an alias). Does that matter? and if it does, is there a way to fix it?

The Players and Characters tabs are not used, only to see the active characters and players xD.

Those two tabs populate from the Gameplay tab. So if you post with your main account, instead of a character or alias, it will add you to the Characters list.

Welcome!

Dot for discussion thread!

Also, I forgot to ask for two things, are you okay with me rolling for Knowledge and Perception checks for your characters? This helps us to keep the game moving in some slower situations.

Number 2, I need you to send me your e-mail address in a PM (preferably with "1-02 GD6" as the Subject), this will be used when reporting the Scenario, so the powers that be can reach you to deliver boons and Gift Certificates if you win them in the lotteries, we are part of the Gameday after all.

I'm good with that.

Yeah roll away :)

I'm perfectly fine with you rolling whatever you need to for my character. That's why I included my character sheet.

Did you want us all to be sending email addresses, or was that for a specific person?

I'm happy letting Dart in if you're fine with it GM!

I'm letting Dart know that he can join us, so as a bit of a retcon, he joined you last on the mission briefing.

Thanks all. I will jump in.

Quick tidbits, he was a pit fighter in one of the larger cities of Akiton, then "got religion" and became champion for good and joined the society. Keep in mind he kind of got his religion wrong.

• Chronicle: 5
  
• History: Quests, 1-01, 1-03, 1-04
  
• Name: Andrew Harasty
  
• AKA: Dart Handman
  
• Faction: Exo-Guardian
  
• SFS: 3645-701

• Fame: 5
  
• Reputation: 9
  
• Starting Credits: 3796
  
• Dayjob: Profession, Evangelist: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

I think I have rolled a 6 on my last three chronicles. Seems like no one likes to hear the good word of The Drinkless God.

Boons Slotted:

Ally Amature Hireling -- Set 3
Faction Exo Guardian Champion
Slotless SFS Care Package: Elixir of Renewal
Slotless Starfinder Insignia
Slotless Marked Field Agent

Slotless Ghibran Linguist
Social Faction's Friend

Kandoon is planning to hold some strong liquor in her cheek pouches and spit out at someone if needed, igniting with a grenade if there's some sort of combat. Would you allow this?

After trying to find any related rules I could grasp, and failing.

I'll say the booze catching fire will add 1d2 fire damage 5ft around the grenade's center, on the failed Reflex save. (Not quite an incendiary grenade, just slightly better than your usual frag.)

But you'll only able to hold the liquor in your pouches for about 30 minutes, after all alcohol is an irritant.

Are you okay with this?
In the future, also expect table variation.

Perfectly ok! Kandoon wouldn't be able to resist swallowing the alcohol much longer than that!

I combed through the rules too and couldn't find anything besides Petrol for being particularly flammable so thought I'd ask.

But you'll only able to hold the liquor in your pouches for about 30 minutes, after all alcohol is an irritant.

If they're serving mudder's milk, I don't think it has that much alcohol in it, really.

Kandoon's position looks good on the map.

Jaka should be across from Centian, next to Renyale.

I moved Jaka next to the door, across Centian on Renyaale's left (with 2 squares to spare), my bad, I thought I had placed everyone according to your wishes, but missed Jaka =(

So I was unable to access the site over the weekend for (???) reasons? I don't know why, but now that I'm at work I can, and I have finally posted.

Good news on the GD extension. I finished the table I was running right before all this blew up. Hopefully we can get though this gracefully.

I've had nothing but repeated "Website under maintenance" when trying to access the site, it's getting a little irritating. By the way, did anyone end up taking HP damage?

I took 2 HP. Not enough to worry about right now.

If any has any decent medicine skill I could get those 2 HP back though "Treat Deadly Wounds."

I apparently never purchased a Basic Medkit, for whatever reason. Unless someone has one, I do have a decent Medicine score.

Nor I (forgot 'Heal' is more useful in the future)

Also I am currently planning to recruit this ysoki as a Hireling ally after this :)

I didn't forget its usefulness, I just totally overlooked buying the thing to use it haha

I did not invest in Medficine (yet)

It is a nice "top off" Once a day you can get your level in HP from a DC 25 medicine check. It is fairly tricky at low levels. When you get the advanced medkit, it is DC20 so I don't expect to see people using "Treat Deadly wounds" till they can get one.

I'll definitely be buying an advanced medkit after this game, and maybe a few more support options. I'm building Jaka very strangely, eventually I'm gonna take Power Armor Prof. and basically be the healer-wall.

Hey guys, I don't have neither my PC or iPad with me tonight, so I won't be able to update until tomorrow morning, sorry about the delay, 110% on me =(

Don't worry about it. The site outages have trained us for this.

I gotta say, IMO the way 10 light bulk = 1 bulk = 19 light bulk is a very silly way for it to work. It really should just be round up. However, Kandoon seems to be correct. RAW is that 19 light is the same as 10 light, so by RAW a Ysoki can carry 19 light bulk in his cheeks.

Yeap. This is one of the "cheese loopholes" of the system.

It is 665 cr for a 19d9 one-use boom. And it takes a few actions to pull off.

I have absolutely no issue with this kind of 'cheese stick', it's a heavy investment.

But yes, it did slip my mind that 11-19L is still 1B. (Having not played but 2 PbP games, i'm not used to the bookkeeping part of the characters =P)

I agree, I'd actually rather have it be 10 L = 1 bulk since it would just be so much easier to keep track of it that way.

It is a huge investment and a 1 trick pony that really isn't going to be super doable in later levels.

10 'nades are what 350 creds? about half of what PCs get on a subtier 1 scenario as far as Commencement and Into the Unknown go.

I hope the final blow is non-lethal damage...

If Talbot has Resolve then he can stabilize. Otherwise there is the option from p.250

If it is ever important to know exactly when a monster dies, such as if you want to capture the creature alive, the GM can decide that a monster reduced to 0 or fewer Hit Points with lethal damage dies in 3 rounds unless it takes any additional damage or receives healing.

**Omitted**

Resolve is what kept the shobhad Stayin' Alive

Ah, I actually missed that part of the CRB when I was reading about non-lethal and such. That's much better. I still do prefer the Pathfinder system of "any amount of non-lethal" being knocked out when brought to zero, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

'Tis the last day of Gameday, so I need to roll for boons and report the game, but we're nearly done =)

19-20 gets one SFS boon; 1d2 for randomness, 1=Emergency [Redacted] 2=[Redacted] Affliction
Random Order (from alphabetical) then Player Boons: 1d7 ⇒ 11d6 ⇒ 61d5 ⇒ 31d4 ⇒ 21d3 ⇒ 31d2 ⇒ 1
GM Khaoz: 1d20 ⇒ 4
Renyaale: 1d20 ⇒ 14
Dart: 1d20 ⇒ 12
Centian: 1d20 ⇒ 3
Kandoon: 1d20 ⇒ 10
0-Rion: 1d20 ⇒ 10
Jaka: 1d20 ⇒ 3

No winners? =(

And just to make sure you'll receive an accurate Chronicle Sheets.

Can you please note, either as a post here on Discussion or with an OOC tag on Gameplay, if your character has bought anything during the game or is going to buy items post scenario?

Thanks!

Mansion will probably not buy until the beginning of her next scenario.

I'll spend 1 Fame for a Basic Hireling (Set 1 - Computers, Engineering, and Physical Science)
