Hi everyone! For those in the States, I hope you had a nice holiday. Speaking of...
I expect this game to run into Christmas holidays, and I know I am going to be out of town for at least some of that time. As such, any posting expectations will be relaxed between the 22-28 of December. I will not bot anyone during that time, nor will I push to advance the plot during that time. I will try to avoid starting a combat shortly before that. Hopefully folks are understanding. If you would like an addendum to those rules, please feel free to speak up.
As for my typical schedule, I try to post for the game at least once a day, but often I am able to update twice, and rarely three times in a day. The only exception is weekends, where my schedule is erratic and I may not post at all.
What I expect from my players is once a day posting on weekdays, and that their actions are clear, especially in combat. I will generally colour-code enemies, please make sure you indicate your targets clearly so I am not guessing on your character's behalf.
If you have any questions/comments, go ahead! Otherwise I'll take your information and you can standby.
Game start date will be December 3rd.

Day Job (forgoing it to train another PC)
I'm afraid you'll have to be more specific about which Second Seekers faction you have slotted. ;)
As for training another PC, is that a boon? Or a rule I am unaware of?

Hello GM Fireclaw, and thank you for running this!
Hello all fellow players, hoping we'll have fun together...
I am fine with all the rules. In general I can check & post several times a day, but can normally be sure to do so 1/day.
I am on Western European time.
Player name: Eric Collins (Eric Collins - France on the Paizo boards)

SFS#-Character#: 101218-706
Faction slotted: Acquisitives
Day Job & roll: Travel VLogger, 44 Cr. (Take 10 +12 = 22, x2 = 44 Cr.)
I think my profile & character sheet are up to date, but I will check it and make sure they are today.

Faction slotted: Second Seekers (Luz)
Day Job & roll: Training another starfinder.
I'll be away from home from boxing day until sometime in early Jan. I maybe able to post a bit during that time, but I'd not count on it.
The training is a Second Seekers faction alternative - The Instructor social boon P32 of the 1.1 version of the guide.
Looks like I have to update my online profile. I'll do that tomorrow.

This is kuey. I do have a mystic or a mechanic if that is more needed for the party, but will check in with Thomagar my melee solarian first.
Player name: kuey
Character name: Thomagar Dayana
SFS#-Character#: 215076-703
Faction slotted: Exo-Guardians
Day Job & roll:
I still need to update his character sheet as he has levelled.
When would we be starting? I'm scheduled to play with Thomagar at a local convention this Saturday.
Could GM open up the gameplay thread for dotting? I fear losing track of this campaign otherwise. :P

Faction slotted: Second Seeker (LE)
Day Job & roll: Forgo day job to add +2 to Instructor Boon
DoubleGold is probably referring to the same boon I'm using: Instructor. You can forgo your day job to increase the 'Fame' added to the pool per scenario from +1 to +2.

Ganeplay thread is open for dotting now. :)

You dedicate some of your time off to training an up-and-coming
Starfinder recruit.
Prerequisites: Second Seekers (Luwazi Elsebo) Tier 1
Cost: 2 Fame
Benefit: This boon represents time spent outside of adventuring
that you’re taking to train a potential new Starfinder. At the end
of every adventure you have this boon slotted, record the total amount of Fame you earned. You can expend your Downtime at
the end of an adventure to increase the amount of Fame recorded
for this boon by 1. Once you have accrued 40 Fame with this boon,
your student has come into his or her own and is ready to become
a full-fledged Starfinder (a new character). Have your GM mark
the Chronicle sheet where you accomplished this, and keep a copy
with your new character.
When your new character reaches 5th level, instead of choosing
four ability scores to increase, you can choose five. Otherwise you
follow all other rules for leveling up. This bonus only applies at
5th level.
Alright, since the Society being part of the playtest took me by surprise, I want to extend an offer to you guys:
If you can have a level 4 "pregen" of the new classes ready in the next 24 hours, you may swap that character in. I don't want to ger bogged down in this since we were just about to begin in ernest. Use level 4 WBL and only make a race you have a boon to play. Otherwise must be society legal.
In addition, this next part is not strictly legal, but you all may use any shield that is your level or below for free. Don't be silly with it (unlimited shields!!), and if any group member feels I am being too generous then say so amd I will nix the idea.
The briefing should be wrapping up shortly, now is the time to finalize your selection of boons. The scenario does not have any recommended boons, though obviously this scenario has the Second Seekers (Jadnura) tag, so that boon is encouraged (though by the looks of it, nobody is Championing that faction).

Boons:
Faction: Second Seekers JA BASIC (paid the fame to buy this, since characters can have Reputation with multiple factions)
Social: Instructor
Scoured Stars Survivor (Personal Boon): You survived the events of the Scoured Stars and they’ve impacted you, or
you’ve passed this information onto someone who has learned from your experiences. If you already have a permanent
boon in your Personal boon slot, such as a special race boon, then you can instead gift this boon to any other character
you’ve created that does not already have a permanent Personal boon. If you pass this boon onto another character, keep
a copy of this Chronicle sheet with that character.
When you slot this boon in your Personal Boon slot, once per day as a free action, you can reduce the number of Resolve
Points required to stabilize by 1 (to a minimum of 0 RP.) When you use this ability to stabilize, you also immediately gain
1d6 Hit Points for every 2 character levels you have.
Ally: Field Trainee

Apologies for the slow pace guys. Holiday season came a bit early for me and been busy with family and such. I will try to get in a post or two before I am out of town (on the 22nd), and pace should pick up once I am back (27th). Thanks for your patience.

Alllrighty. Hopefully everybody had good holidays (or good NOT holidays if you don't celebrate). Let's get this train moving again. :D
I'm chalking Sidor up as a now show at this point. We'll see if he comes back shortly.
It was certainly a crowd pleaser, but he got shot prior to it by Huckle Jim :p
We're tracking along quite well, hope you are all ok with the pace :)
I am heading away with work and will be back home in 36 hours, I will have little to no internet during that time (as we will be in a remote area).
We're pretty much at the pointy end.
Any changes to your info above let me know (as I'll be basing chronicles on what is posted)
