[SFS 1-12] GM Cellion's Ashes of Discovery (High Tier) (Inactive)

Game Master Cellion

Hi and welcome all to the higher tier table of 1-12 Ashes of Discovery. I'll be staggering the start of the two tables a little bit (I didn't expect this one to fire so quickly!). In the mean time, I need the following from each of you for later use:

1. Player Name for the chronicle
2. Character Name
3. Class and Level
4. SFS# (and dash)
5. Which faction will you be championing?
6. Day job Roll (if any)
7. Have you played SFS 1-01 with this character?
8. What is your favorite color (from 1 to 10)?

Also, if you have anything odd/unusual about your character that I should know, please say so now.

Feel free to dot the gameplay thread when you're ready.

I still need to actually apply Lucky's most recent chronicle, so I'll fill in the Day job once I've got that finished up.

1. Player Name for the chronicle: Cwethan
2. Character Name: Lucky Sevens
3. Class and Level: Mechanic 3
4. SFS# (and dash): 182453-701
5. Which faction will you be championing?: Acquisitives
6. Day job Roll (if any)
7. Have you played SFS 1-01 with this character?: Yes
8. What is your favorite color (from 1 to 10)?: I don't understand the from 1 to 10 part, but Lucky's favorite color is definitely red.

So, ummm. 4 Mechanics, and a Solarian?

Which Pregen shall I use?

Man, there is just not a good avatar for a kasatha.

1. Eggellis
2. Altronus
3. Solarian level 4
4. 170784-703(I assume I use the number for the character who gets the credit for this)
5. I've never used a pregen before so maybe I'm doing this wrong but the character I want to apply credit to will champion the Second Seekers.
6. Day job Roll NA
7. I haven't played that one at all actually.
8. Green. 10?

1. Player Name for the chronicle: Zach D
2. Character Name: 0689
3. Class and Level: Mechanic 3
4. SFS# (and dash): 133462-701
5. Which faction will you be championing? Aquisitives
6. Day job Roll (if any) profession bounty hunter: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21
Would be 42 credits. But, with known quality, I multiply the result by 2 for a total of 84 credits.
7. Have you played SFS 1-01 with this character? Yes
8. What is your favorite color (from 1 to 10)? 3

I will be spending 1 fame on abundant ammunition
and 2 fame on known quality boon.

So a total of 3 fame spent for the chronicle.

I would like to try and use my boon for access to the Sunrise Maiden. It is a loaned ship. Per the boon, everyone has to agree to use it.

Woohoo, four mechanics! This should be fun! Also, I'm all for the Sunrise.

1. Player Name for the chronicle: EwokBanshee
2. Character Name: Piggy Longbottom
3. Class and Level: Mechanic 3
4. SFS# (and dash): 240237-702
5. Which faction will you be championing?: Second Seekers (Luwazi)
6. Day job Roll (if any): I will be forgoing my dayjob to add one fame to my Instructor boon.
7. Have you played SFS 1-01 with this character? No... If it's for an important boon, I'm willing to play a Pre-Gen for a character that has.
8. What is your favorite color (from 1 to 10)? 3.

Also, if you have anything odd/unusual about your character that I should know, please say so now.

Piggy is a drone mechanic who rides his drone. My slotted boons are below.

Faction: Second Seekers (Luwazi)
Ally:
Starship: Rugged Hull
Social: Instructor (11/40)
Slotless: (Claimant to Salvation), Starfinder Insignia

Hi all, looks like we are waiting on one more to check in, and a few to update their profiles for level 3. I'll aim to get the briefing started tonight or early tomorrow. Feel free to introduce yourselves in gameplay in the mean time.

@Zahir: Up to you. I'd suggest something with a bit of social skills. Or you can double down on theme and go with ANOTHER MECHANIC :>

@Eggellis Yep, the info you're giving me here is for the character that this sheet will go to. Make sure to give me the name of that character rather than your Pregen name, and the name of the faction that character is championing.

@0689: If I recall right, there's an extra bonus for using the Sunrise Maiden in a Tier 3-4 game. Mind linking the text of the boon to me?

That character's name is Bugface and they are a Second Seeker.

I'm also cool with the Sunrise.

1. Player Name for the chronicle: Matthais777
2. Character Name: Gear 2.0
3. Class and Level: Mechanic 3
4. SFS# (and dash): # 176948-701
5. Which faction will you be championing? Dataphiles
6. Day job Roll (if any) Profession Chemist: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27
7. Have you played SFS 1-01 with this character? Yes
8. What is your favorite color (from 1 to 10)? 7, if the name didn't give it away.

Keskodai is +8 for Diplomacy at 4th level. What sayeth the others? Navasi is only +9.

What’s the link to the site that has the bbcoded info for the pregens, so you can just paste it into your profile?

”We were told that our services might be of usageness here?”

And I'll officially slot all of my boons tomorrow..

BTW Piggy, just noticed your comment about SFS 1-01. There is nothing that requires your character to have done SFS 1-01, I just like knowing what past experience people may have had with Guidance. It helps inform any roleplay that comes up.

Ally:
Faction: Aquistive Champion
Personal:
Promotional:
Social: Known Quality
Starship: Loaned Ship: Sunrise Maiden
Slotless: All of my slotless boons are listed in a spoiler on my character page.

1. Player Name for the chronicle: Tripp Elliott
2. Character Name: Jaxom Sandstrom (but Keskodai, obviously)
3. Class and Level: Mystic 4
4. SFS# (and dash):55238-702
5. Which faction will you be championing?: Exo-guardians
6. Day job Roll (if any): N/A
7. Have you played SFS 1-01 with this character? Ummm, sure
8. What is your favorite color (from 1 to 10)? Favorite Color: 1d10 ⇒ 6

Good! I'm still a little paranoid about the successive way some of these boons work.

I'm so excited to be in another of your games, Cellion!

Oh, and Lucky's Day Job is
Criminal: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

So just to be sure I've got this right, Lucky used the turret and I think it's in position for me to use the aft or starboard weapon yes?

I think it's aft only in this position, but that one's the better weapon anyways so...

For sure the better weapon. I'm looking at it from my phone and it looks right in between the arcs so I didn't want to use the wrong one. If there was a wrong one.

I'm really liking Piggy's gross chocolaty descriptions. I can just picture the interior of the ship getting horribly smeared. :>

Thanks! I get way to much enjoyment out of how low his levels of hygiene can get when he's distracted.

I feel like space maneuvers are mostly only useful if there are asteroids. I Evade a LOT.

Letting you guys know I'm heading out to a convention in a day or so (Colossalcon WOOT!) so my posting will be pretty much non-existent until I get back. Thanks for your patience feel free to bot me as needed. :)

Thanks for letting me know Gear. Enjoy the Con!

All I can say is WOW. I thought this scenario was under-tuned in low tier, but you guys OBLITERATED these last two encounters. :>

Alright, scenario is all reported. Thanks all for keeping the posting pace up and bringing some colorful characters to the table :>

Chronicles can be found HERE, AT THIS LINK. Give me a heads up if I missed something in putting them together. As a reminder to those of you who played pre-gens, chronicles for level 4 pregens can't be applied until the character they were assigned to reaches 4th level.

BTW, If any of you haven't played SFS 1-10: The Really Friendly Streets, there's a recruitment for that scenario right now, if you're interested.

In any case, I'll keep the thread open for a few more days to make sure everyone has their chronicle, and in case any of you want to conduct some wrap up RP. After that I'll give it a hide. Thanks all!

Thanks GM..

Gah, I wish I hadn't played that already! I'll be looking out for another fantastic Cellion game! Thanks so much!

Maybe I'm reading it wrong, or maybe I should've done a better job of putting it out there, but I was hoping to use this rule:

You can apply adventure credit from a higher-level sanctioned module or Adventure Path to a newly created, 1st-level Starfinder Society Roleplaying Guild character. When doing so, reduce the credits reward to 720 credits if the adventure grants 1 XP or 2,160 credits if it grants 3 XP. You

do not benefit from any boons until your Starfinder Society Roleplaying Guild character reaches the minimum level listed on the Chronicle sheet, unless otherwise noted.

In any case, thanks a bunch! I had a good time and I'm already on the sign up sheet for 1-10.

@Eggellis: Gotcha, I'll update it for a 1st level character when I get back home today.

@Zahir: Do you want me to update your chronicle as well to work for a 1st level?

Sadly, I'm apparently not fast enough and I'm like number 11 on your list, so here's to hoping you do a second table. If you thought Gear was goofy, wait until you meet "Ballon-Boy".

You weren't too late Gear, though unfortunately Ballon-Boy (goofy sounds right for that name :> ) was not in the right subtier for the rest of the group. I'll keep him in mind for future games that might need a Lv 3-4!

@Eggellis: Chronicle added for Bugface that shows the correct 720 credits.

Hmmmm. Still shows the same one for me. Sorry to be such a headache.

I added it as a separate file. Here, I'll delete the old one.

Maybe I need a new link to the folder? I can still only see the original one.

Couldn't check yesterday - mine's all good, thanks for running!

Eggellis, that's weird. Try this direct link.

It was. That worked though boss, thanks. See you on the friendly streets.

OK, I'm going to go ahead and hide this thread. If anyone has any questions or comments about chronicles after this, feel free to PM me.
