Player: Pete H.
Character: Alejandro Carlos
SFS #: 123594-701

Thanks for running the game!

Alejandro is a smooth talking older human who knows how to impress or distress his target. He mainly joined the society to get away from some trouble so he likes missions to go smoothly without making waves... which totally happens all the time!

Player: VampByDay
Character: Rudura Storyscriber
SFS: 132475-707
Slotted Faction: Second Seekers (Jadnura)

Special: Slotting Personal Boon from Live Exploration X-TREME! that allows me to start a Dwarf with a 12 point buy.

Also, This character starts at level 2 from Scouered Stars Veteran. If the GM wants pictures of either of these boons, I can send evidence to him.

I'll post fully this evening, sorry for the delay.

Checking in now. I'll have a post for the character by the end of the day.

Ok, with everyone checked in (take your time Saashaa, We'll be RPing for the first bit so you can just read along and such) lets make a start.

I have played through this a number of times. Is there anyone who has not played through this scenario yet?

I am fairly new to Starfinder and actually never played this scenario

I have never played, nor GMed this, so it'll be a fun ride :)

In that case, I will leave the decision making up to you all. Enjoy.

I've played and GM'd this scenario too. Whichever one you want to start with is good for me.

Vecro drops his pike and runs through the room, throwing people around. The only obstacles that he needs to run around is Baryon who seems to be glued to the ground.

I wasn’t even a Pathfinder. They hired me to do some xenarchaeology on a dig site and next thing I know I’m stuck behind...

Just before Rudora finishes the sentence the solarian dives through and tackles her to the ground putting his hand on her mouth saying:

"Please no more spoilers".

Knowing very well that this is a discussion thread, so none of this really happened.

I've played through a few times too, so I'll set back from who's first too.

First run through this scenario for me, though I've played in a good chunk of other SFS scenarios on him and another PC.

Tactics-wise in combat, Alejandro uses Get 'Em a lot and then either shoots at the enemy with his pistols or Inspires his Allies, returning Stamina Points to them if they were recently injured.

I’m not much of a combatant. I have a singing disk that does 1d4+2 damage and that’s about it. I’m much more of a support character. Don’t even have mindthrust.

I tried to be pretty vague. Anyway, I have a boon explains how I got to level 2 that way soooooo. . . That’s why I’m level 2 and haven’t been commenced?

Rolling for opponent vehicles.

Lemgem: 1d4 ⇒ 1 Sleek Junkracer
Nyizin: 1d4 ⇒ 2 Spherical Junkracer
Orsis: 1d4 ⇒ 4 well Armed Junkracer
Velocity: 1d4 ⇒ 3 Bulky Junkracer

I haven't exactly fleshed this character's rp out completely, so I will be staying mostly to the background until I come up with something.

GM: it doesn’t look like the bike’s speed increased since my last speed increase mod.

Fixed. Thanks for the catch Rudura

I thought we were going to do the xenoguardians before the datafiles?

Hey Folks for the next 4 days I will be traveling with limited access to the internet. So please bot me. I will be back on Tuesday. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Rudura got an implant and bought an album for herself

Profession-Xenoarchaeologist day job: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23

Alejandro did not get the implant but did buy the album.

No day job.

Great game!

Smek got the implant.

Day Job/Prof (Corp Agent): 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34

yes implant
no day job

Vecro did get an implant and did buy the album

He has no day job

@GM letsuna thank you very much for running this scenario for us! I really enjoyed how you GM"ed it. Hope to play with you more in the future

True Silver got the implant

Bought an album for Ziggy, but not himself

No day job

Almost forgot Smek got the album too

Ok, chronicles are up. Sorry it took so long. I had a busy weekend.

Chronicles

If I have made any mistakes or something is wrong please let me know. Please also do not forget to deduct the credits for the album.

Thanks once again for playing. I'll leave the thread up for a few days them mark it as inactive.

Thanks for the chronicles, the only thing that I am not sure of is the following.

I think everyone should get 2 reputation with the slotted faction. So as Vecro had Wayfinders Champion Boon it means that I should get +2 reputation with Wayfinders.

Thanks for the run through.

I will check Vecro. This is my first SFS GMing, so I will need to go check.

Chronicle looks good. Thank you for running. Good gaming everyone.

Actually, you gain the reputation for the champion boon you have slotted. In Vecro's case, that would be Wayfinders. Any additional reputation or fame will be called out in the scenario, like when a scenario has a faction tag.

Thanks Dax. The scenario says the same. Primary success you gain 1 fame and 1 rep with slotted faction, secondary success is 1 more fame and 1 more rep.

One question, should this be marked on the chronicle sheet? Meaning at the moment on mine it only states that I got 2 fame, no word about reputation. On my other games usually, it was written in the reputation section.

Btw. I am new too, and I've never GM'ed an SFS game so that is why I ask.

Leave it with me Vecro. It is almost bedtime for my kids and myself. I will get back to you in the morning.

I don't know a ton about filling out the SFS chronicles, but I have seen it done both ways. Sometimes the faction reputation section is filled in, sometimes it is not. I honestly just fill it in for myself if it isn't and don't worry to much about it. Only a couple of times has the scenario provided bonus reputation for non-slotted factions so usually it's just a flat two more rep for whatever I slotted.

It isn't a grayed in area, so I just sorta assumed it wasn't a mandatory thing for a GM to fill in. Maybe it's supposed to be a place to track all the faction reputation by the player?

If I get a chance today I'll go take a look at the starfinder society guide and see if it spells anything out.

Either way, thanks for the chronicle (got it) and run, it was well done, especially for your first SFS run!!!

I can fill it in and reissue the chronicle. If anyone wants that please send me your reputations before this scenario and I'll add the 2 points.

Assuming that it is not required to put the reputation on the chronicles I am fine as is. Thank you very much.

Thanks Vecro :)
I am going to make an attempt to be a little more active on the SFS side and learn the system a bit better. I might even make a GM-baby to allocate all the chronicle to. Please feel free to play at any of my tables in the future.

Thanks for the great run Letsuna! Sheet looks good here.
