[SFS - PbP Gameday VIII] 1-17: Reclaiming the Time-Lost Tear - GM bigboom (Inactive)

Game Master bigboom

I apologize if my slow posting rate is frustrating anyone. I normally post much more than this, but right now I'm spending a lot of time in my tiny baby's hospital room. I need my Pathfinder/Starfinder games as an escape, but can't check in as often as usual.

Don't worry about it. There is no frustration on my end. Your baby is your priority. I am so sorry to hear the baby is in the hospital :( I have a 7month old and I have been there.

I've been there before. My best to you and your family.

I was moving in that direction with the healer's bond since Twich didn't speak up when requested earlier. Great minds....

Ahhhh!! I see! You were trying not to metagame. Gotcha and I commend you!

It's all good. Your posting rate hasn't slowed things down from what I can tell. Hope things look up for you and family very soon!!!

No worries here, Redelia. I hope all turns out well with your baby.

For some reason, the forum is ignoring my dice input. That 3d4+3 should have been the damage from magic missile. I'll try rolling it here.

3d4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 2, 3) + 3 = 12

Everyone, my apologies. I'm coming off a 13-hour work day so I won't be able to post today. However, I should have no issue posting tomorrow.

I'll be travelling this weekend, so bot me if necessary. I'll be back to posting regularly on Monday.

Bluuuuu, just checking. Do you have a dayjob? If yes, please go ahead and roll your dayjob here and record the result on slide 2. Thank you!

Sorry, here you go:

Profession Soldier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Just a heads up. I'm travelling out of town this weekend so my posting rate is likely to slow down a bit. Should be back to normal after the weekend!

Sorry I've been out of touch. Got sick on the way home from a business trip. Slept nearly 16 hours yesterday on and off.

We're getting close to the end so there are a couple administrative things I need everyone to do.

First, please check your details on slide #2. I'll be using the information on this slide to fill out your chronicles so please be sure this information is correct.

Second, it's time to roll for con boons!!! Everyone roll a 1d20 and a 1d3 here in the discussion thread. If you roll a 19 or 20 then you've won a boon! I'll start first...

Win a boon?: 1d20 ⇒ 4
Which boon?: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Good luck everyone on winning that boon!!

Win a boon?: 1d20 ⇒ 15
Which boon?: 1d3 ⇒ 2

Boon?: 1d20 ⇒ 4

boon roll: 1d20 ⇒ 9

Rolling for Boon: 1d20 ⇒ 8

1d20 ⇒ 2
1d3 ⇒ 3

Sorry about the delay, and the marshmallow brained post when I did. My baby is making such rapid progress that a lot of my time and energy is going to her. :)

You just had a baby. Delays are to be expected.

No worries! It's all good!!!

Hey guys! FYI, there is one additional encounter in the area below the fallen bridge. Early on, Bluuuuu flew down into that area but did not see anything at the time - nor did the creature lurking there detect Bluuuuu.

This is another one of those rooms where if you don't go in and kill everything in the room, you lose out on some credits and I think it would be a bummer for this to happen without warning you.

However, considering your current status and with a couple of level 8 pregens, I can't see how this group could possibly have any issue with defeating the creature. So unless there are any objections, I'll skip the encounter. I did, however, throw up a picture of the creature in the slides for your viewing pleasure.

Behold! The scavenger slime!

If anyone really does want to do combat just say so and I'll be happy to run this last combat encounter. I estimate this group would probably take it down within a week.

I'd rather miss out on the credits, but if the group wants to fight, Spanner will fight.

I'll roll with the group's decision. Scavenger slime just sounds like something we'll pound on, more of a roll play encounter.

Reynold is already losing credits from playing down, so if skipping the encounter means losing credits then I'd rather do it. That said, I agree that the encounter would be trivial with this group, so if the GM would rather handwave it then that's fine by me.

Yep, I'm going to handwave the slime encounter. It would have been more of a challenge if one or two people had fallen down into that pit and found themselves alone engaged with the slime but that would not be the present situation.

So.......

Time to review the success conditions!!

Primary Success: If the PCs recovered the Tear, they succeed at their mission and each earn 1 Fame and 1 Reputation for any factions associated with their currently slotted faction boon.

Secondary Success: If the PCs complete any two of the following, they earn 1 additional Fame and 1 Reputation for any factions associated with their currently slotted faction boon: view Ralveen’s final log, view Prima’s final log, restore at least one izalguun with the vaccine.

Faction Notes: Success at the PCs’ primary mission contributes directly to the First Seeker’s goals. Each PC earns 1 additional Reputation with the Second Seekers (Luwazi Elsebo) faction

Congratulations! You've completed both the primary and secondary success conditions!! I'll work on getting the chronicles out shortly.

Alrighty, chronicles are available here: Chronicles

Please review and let me know if your chronicle is okay or if it needs correction. In two or three days I'll submit this game to the con team for reporting and mark this game inactive.

Thank you all for playing and I hope you all enjoyed the scenario!!

Thanks for running, bigboom! Could you mark mine as Acquisitives +2, Luwazi +1, and Instructor +3 in lieu of the Day Job?

Oops, that made me realize I put +2 for Luwazi on everyone's chronicle rather than +1. I've fixed that.

Reynold, for your chronicle, I've gone ahead and added the additional markings as requested. Let me know if it needs any further adjustments!

Bigboom, thanks for running this. Chronicle looks good.

Everyone thanks for a good game. I enjoyed playing with you all.

I'll see you around the boards.

Looks good. Thank you for running.

Everything looks great on my end too. Thanks a ton for running, I had a blast!

And it was great playing with you all too. Hopefully I'll see you around somewhere in the galaxy again (or on the forums)

Thank you Bigboom, this was a lot of fun as always.

Thank you, team, for a fun game.

I'm sorry for fading out at the end. My baby has been making a lot of progress and so needing even more of my time.

No worries! Best wishes to baby Redelia!!! ;-)

Definitely, no worries. Best wishes for you and the baby.
