Ok so there are three of you signed up and that is enough to play. Firgure out what pregen you will want an is anyone willing to run the pre-gen.

Fill out Slide 2 in the SFS 1-05 First Mandate maps

Filled out the sheet! Let me know if I got anything wrong.

What do you folks think about pregens? Maybe an Envoy for extra Charisma/skill monkeying? Or a Mystic for healing?

I just signed up and have to do the work of bringing up all my chronicle sheets up to date and then i will announce my character.
Sorry that i can't let you know the character level right now.

As i read start will be the 16th February right? Will come back today or tomorrow.

Yes it will be Tuesday morning (ish) After this weekend's number of conventions.

Tigerkralle here, i will play as a level 1 Envoy to round out and give some skills.

Will update the profile for Thalithat Delmore step by step to be able to play her here on the forum. Last time i played her was on Roll20.

Doppelpost because it's too late to edit.

Faction is of course Wayfinders!

And for future reference i do have a problem if you use two times S for Second Seekers, because as a German the first thing on my mind is something very bad. I want roleplaying to be my comfortable area in my life.
Thanks!

Glad to see we've got a fourth! That resolves the question of a pre-gen.
BTW: this is my first time playing on Paizo, so please bear with me if I mess up!

I am so sorry, i confused this scenario for a replayable one!

I do have to move away from this table because i am not allowed to play because technially 3 is enoug to play and i am not needed to make this a playable table.

Soo sorry, i confused "Four for the First" and "The First Mandate". Both have First in the title and only one of them is replayable.

So you have to remove me from the table and i remove myself from the slide and so on.

Edit to add: I just saw someone signed up on the Outpost spreadsheet so i assume all will end well and you will be at least four players.

Please remember to fill out slide 2 soon. Also make sure you have your important details on your character line.

Signed up & will update & post character tomorrow.

Hello,

I will update today. Thank you. Looking forward to this adventure!

Ok. Looks like 5 and we are at 2.2 for the APL so this will be low-tier.

Please remember to fill out slide 2 soon. Also make sure you have your important details on your character line.

Sorry, noob question: where do I put the tagline code once I've filled it out? I'm afraid I'm a bit lost.

@Quadrangle, Go to your character profile page & hit "Edit My Profile" in the upper right corner then enter all info under Classes/Levels. Just put everything on that one line. Look at mine for a reference. (SP, HP, RP, EAC, KAC, Fort, Ref, Will Init, etc. I put some of my weapon to hit & damage to make it easy to just copy & paste.
Make sure to hit save changes at the bottom of the page. Sometimes it will not save larger inserts so start out with just a few changes then save, enter more then save again.

Sorry I have not played in about a year. How do I add my character to the player/character list? I need to update my character to level 3.

I forget what the day job roll is/does??

Thanks.

Go into the gameplay thread and post anything and you will be added. Many people just type a period, then delete the post after they have been added to the list (hence "dot and delete").

Day job is a Profession check that adds credits at the end of the adventure if you are not using downtime for something else. You get double what you roll.

The following is a detailed description on how to set up your profile. Though it is specicially pathfinder, you can make the adjustments for Starfinder.

As for showing up on the player list, "Dot and Delete" as describe works, but at this point go ahead and do a brief character introduction.

LOL I will next time. Thanks I will post a brief intro.

I was lurking and had the slides for this game still open on my browser and on closing i saw there is a character listed on slide 2 named Thalitha. I know for sure i removed myself and i also see the avatar i picked is there as a token on slide 3.

I know i added myself as Thalitha Delmore and used the lines for Player_4 not PLAYER_1!
Someone is missing on slide 2 and i was readded by mistake. Just to let you know and i better close the google slides on my eng now.

Have a lot of fun and good luck with your rolls!

got it. i have cleared/fixed the slides. so i should have the right people now.

I added my token to the Maps slide but I forgot how to adjust the size. How do you do that again? Thanks.

Question. Are we supposed to flit around from contact to contact or keep on concentrating on one POC? Just player strategizing here.

I think that we should try to get at least three(?) successes with as many guests as possible. I'm totally okay with either flitting between guests or focusing on just one. What's everyone else think?

We should at least discuss who has what skills to influence which Guest and who would be best at each. Work together on the ones where we are weak on skills. Aid Another is only a DC 10 check and makes more sense to do that then get several individual failures. We do not know if there are consequences if we fail an influence check.

I've Life/Physical Science +7, so I can work with Ryoko. My Culture and Mysticism are +4, so I'm best in Aiding Another with those.
You've +12 to Culture, right, Gammer? I could help you there with Ykris.

Kneepuncher has a bunch of +3s and +4s in relevant skills. Good for assisting when that's relevant, but not going to be able to do much more solo.

Yes, Gammer has +12 in Culture for Ykris so can probably do that for 1 round.

Let's discuss how to handle round 3 before making a bunch of rolls.

GM Gustavef, do we get multiple attempts to influence with the same guest or just 1 attempt per guest?

And what's our target? The higher the better, or a fixed number of successes, like 4?

Grimace has Diplomacy 8, Sense Motive 6 and Intimidate 13.

You will have a total of eight rounds for influence. There is a fixed number of successes to fully sway the person, but I will let you know when you reach that threshold.

The same person using the same skill on the same target does have some diminishing effects. So mixing things up is encouraged.

Also each person has something special that can gain high bonuses or free successes. Some of which have been implied. (ie, If you do an aid with Naiaj and get really high, you can get two successes)

Grimace was going to try and impress upon Naiaj how Starfinder Teams benefit from Leadership and the successes that they have built upon. At least, that was the angle I was gonna try with a Diplomacy Roll. Outside of social skills, the only positive skill I have is Profession.

For Round 3, I would suggest whoever has the highest Diplomacy try it on Naiaj with the Aid Another from everyone else.

Soryn & I can try to tackle Ykris with Culture.

Sounds good Gammer, I am up for a plan. Shoot I forgot to level my character to 2 lol. I will work on that tonight. I am good at life science, medicine, perception, and little on computers.

Who should be my next target?

Looks like people already rolled checks.

@Xic maybe roll Aid Another assist with Diplomacy for Grimace.

I figured I would post, and then whoever was aiding Grimace would chime in.

Being we are all PBP.

I was just catching up. I sure will.

Does someone want to allow the symbiote to join with them? We might get another influence point by that. Gammer will if no one else wants to. I was thinking people can attempt to tell stories/exploits to Iteration-177 while Gammer tried Acrobatics with Zo! If it works we end up with 3 successes each but still have no influences with Ryoko. What does everyone think?

It doesn't seem like anyone has good options for influencing Ryoko. Probably better to lock down the others before crit-fishing on her. Maybe someone can get a good Sense Motive and uncover additional options?

Happy to use INTIMIDATE on these clowns! +13 LOL LOL

Grimace has Sense Motive 8. I might be the best at it. Willing to give it a go or do an assist.

Let me know.

I have a pretty good Life Science mod (+7), but I want to get a Sense Motive check off on Ryoko before going after them. I'm sure things are going to change at the halfway mark, so we can focus on the others first.

In the meantime, I've +4 Mysticism. Should I roll it straight, or aid another for Iteration-177?

I don't think a roll is required. The info we have is "Impressed with Religion (Mysticism) and interested in stories of Starfinder Exploits." I think someone just needs to relate a story to Iteration-177. Soryn, or Xic, any past missions to relate?

That is my take Gammer, I approach the NPC, try to sound Starfindery and make my die roll. I trying to figure out how to make this character out to be a loveable but annoying as hell Vesk. Like me.

I'm up for aiding another or just telling Iteration-177 a story this round, but I really have nothing to offer Ryoko. "Especially not you!"
