1) Player name: GM Skeemo
2) Character name: Dusty Rhodes
3) SFS#-Character#: 125136-705
4) Faction: Second Seekers (Jadnura)
5) Day Job (if any, do not roll yet): Corporate Professional +9
6) Have you played/GM'd this scenario before, or anything else I should know? GMed before, will avoid any spoilers during play.
Just in under the wire!
I'm running my first SFS caster in another game that just started.
Looking forward to gaming with you all.
Upaynao, hope you don't mind me jumping in on the martial role. Personally I like multiple combat types in a party. Brothers in arms, etc. Looks like we'll have different styles anyway.
Want to give Padme and Dusty a chance to introduce themselves before we start wih the briefing. Looking forward to playing with everyone!
The briefing is mostly concluded (aside from questions), so now is the time for you guys to slot your boons.
The module recommends you slot the AbadarCorp Respect boon from Scenario 1-02, if you have access to it.
Bah, sorry for the lack of posts yesterday. I am still occasionally having trouble with the website. Think my post got eaten.
@Xelem
While Detect Thoughts from Lashunta is technically a spell-like ability, I would personally find it of limited use if you couldn't use it in situations like this. As such, my general rule with such spells is that only those with ranks with Mysticism can identify when this and similar spell-like abilities are being cast. This is not RAW, though Starfinder doesn't have spell components like Pathfinder to tell us how spells might manifest.
So, if Xelem believes Julzakama has no ranks in Mysticism, then he should be able to use his ability without fear.
I will be moving the game on shortly, in a few hours.
Busy day for me yesterday and posting this from my phone. Gane will be updated in 4-5 hours depending on when I get home, just to keep you guys in the loop.
Hopefully everyone's enjoying the game thus far. My first go-round GMing for either SFS/PFS and it's a bit different than what I am used to. How is the pacing and posting rate for everyone? Nobody feels like they are being left behind?
Having a good time with this game.
Hey guys, I injured my hand at worm yezterday, and while it isn't serious, it's also painful to type for extended periods. Pace might slow down a touch since I don't want to aggravate it.
OK. Thanks for the notification.
I am mostly healed now so I will be resuming the game. Thanks everybody for their patience.
I feel as though it is worth noting that by saving Maija you all would earn the boon that would let you play as a halfling... however that seems a bit like a moot point since the updated guide allows halfling characters. Just thought that was a bit amusing.

Oh, the new guide allows for more races? I should read up on that. The one thing I heard about this scenario was that it could allow you to make a halfling. I thought up a fun little idea for one. I don't super love how these updates make previously cool boons and discoveries more obsolete or less fun, but I'm not too bummed. I'm having fun, and will still get to play my halfling!
A similar thing happened back in PFS, now that I recall. It was a little disappointing to get to be an oread and then they were fully open soon after. But that boon still allowed for other options, like being a Coread.
When did they update the guide? I downloaded it not long ago and halflings were still verboten.
Not that I want to play one. I went through a terrible halfling phase in my teens. I'm pretty much done with them.
Are any other legacy races allowed now?
Ouch Archaius! Those are some DM dice at work right there.
I assume Burnham's plan is to guarded step out once Padme' is clear?
I don't mind in the future if you put actions in your post that are dependent on someone doing something after you. The nature of PBP means we gotta squeeze in what we can when we can. IRL in that scenario you could just freely delay until they'd moved and then take your turn, so I'm fine with little things like that :)
If someone can move Padme’ she can draw her weapon as part of the move action ( or is that only pathfinder?) I cannot do it right now posting from a phone. Don’t care where you move me just away from the creature is good
This is also a rule for Starfinder, though like PF1E you need at least +1 BAB (which Padme has, as a level 2 envoy).
Notable differences for rules like this in Starfinder:
-Quick Draw is now a swift action instead of free.
-Changing grips on your weapon is ALSO a swift action. For example when Burnham put up his cannon to punch with his battle glove, that was a swift action.
For those unaware, given the holiday weekend in the states, I'm not going to bot those leftover until monday afternoon. Enjoy the sunday guys. :)
I believe this is how Starfinder Society works:
The credits you found can be used immediately, but doing so will dock them from your treasure at the end? So Xelem shouldn't need to bum from Padme, since there were 50 credits each.
I could be mistaken though, I am still new to SFS.

Correct, this is an in-game resource that can be used without penalty.
Since we are nearing the conclusion of this scenario I'd like to say I enjoyed the group and it's characters very much, and as suggested by Padme, the Venture-Captain is going to report that this team works together very well together.
Meaning, I am open to running another scenario for this group after we've concluded, if folks are into that. I do not have a scenario planned and am open to suggestions.

Well Padme' has already played: The Solar Sorte, The commencement, and Yesteryear's truth:
She would not get credit for The First Mandate, Fugitive on a Red Planet, Cries from the drift, or dreaming of the future..because other characters of mine have played these non-evergreens...
My preference would be to play the *Star sugar Heartlove focused scenario as I have a boon from the commencement for that one...otherwise I'm open to anything.

Ivan has only played The Commencement and Ashes of Discovery.
From what I can tell, that includes most if not all of the 1-4s. Still, I'd love to do another run of one of those for no credit if others want to. I particularly enjoyed The Solar Sortie, but might sit out Live Exploration Extreme! (I loved that one too, but things might get weird as Ivan traces his backstory to the mission.)
I'm just happy to play. 1-22 works for me. (And Burnham)
1-22 is it. I'm going to have to pick it up and do some prep but we will see how long it takes to wrap this scenario up before deciding anything for the next.
FCD, have you checked in for Bigrin's Commencement table?
Busy past day for me. Should be able to sneak in a post before the end of the night.
With the scenario wrapping up I'm going to work on Chronicles. Hmm has asked us to try and be vigilant with properly filling out the Chronicles so everyone can please and give me the following info:
Number of this Chronicle:
Starting XP:
Initial Fame:
Day Job Roll:
Number of this Chronicle: 1
Starting XP: 0
Initial Fame: 0
Day Job Roll: none
And just to double check. Burn's character number is 90661-704 .
