Chronicle looks good. Had a lot of fun with this group.
See you on the boards!

The vesk looks out to the crowd. She has never been the center of attention before. Her head swivels back and forth, seeking out the vesk she ran into earlier. She holds her weapon aloft. "Who I am does not matter. That is how I...my people were raised for millennia. Warriors bred for war, to fight...to kill. Where I was raised had no individuality, no self, only the constant preparation for combat."
"There was nothing else."
"But, through this bleak landscape, I head a sound, a single note. The fog of war was parted. With the help of my allies in the Starfinders, I was able to seek out the source. For the first time, I knew MUSIC! Not just any music, but a band with the power to change hearts and minds. Indeed, they have changed my life. I AM ARCHAIUS MAELSTROM! AND I FOUND LIFE AND LOVE WITHIN THE MAGICAL NOTES OF SUGAR HEART LOVE!!!
The thrusts his arms up in triumph before sprinting forward and leaping into a spread-eagle stage dive.

"I agree. Built to take a beating, that's for certain." With that, the vesk swings again.
Doshko vs KAC (fire): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
damage: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14

Um, I understand missing with an 18, but if an attack roll of 26 vs KAC misses, I will only hit this on a natural 20

"Oh no ya don't! We're still dancin'!"
Doshko vs KAC (fire): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 261d8 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13
Coordinated Shot: When Archaius is threatening a foe with a melee weapon, any ally with line of sight to that foe without Archaius granting the foe cover gains a +1 bonus to ranged attack rolls against the foe.

Hoping to hold the enemy's attention, the vet clicks the flame on her ember flame doshko and closes the gap between them. Her frilly dress spins and swirls as she races across the stage. She swings, hoping to catch the 'construct' off-guard.

The vesk thinks about it a moment. She decides to look as bubblegum, teeny-bop as she can. Pink dress with hearts, pink wig and purple make-up completes the look.

Well, if that is the case, the vesk tries to grab Lanzio.
"Sorry 'friend', not time to play. We have to get you out of here before the gas comes through the vents, lets go!"
Grapple: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

The vesk decides it would be better to get up close and personal with the drone. He draws his doshko and flicks the switch. A distinctive ignition of <<click>>...<<click>> WHOOSH precede the ignition of three 'blades' of fire.

Archaius reaches for a weapon, then stops. We are not here to kill him...yet. So, no gun. Someone IS trying to kill him, but with gas, not an assassin. There should not be any killers lurking about. So, no gun. However, there may be TWO groups out to get him, operating independently of each other. The other assassins may not about the poison and are inside. So, GUN! With a satisfied smile, the soldier unslings her weapon as the others work on the lock.

Archaius looks down at Sefel's arm. "Bummer. Need me to amputate? You know, so it doesn't spread."
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9
Archaius stands to the side, pointing her flashlight at pop star while turning it on and off to provide 'lighting' and 'effects' for Vixi's makeshift concert.
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9
The vesk reaches a meaty paw into the box of offered seals and takes one.
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9
The vesk stands silently behind Vixi, looking like the body guard. She nods in the performer's general direction when the guard asks his question; as if to say, I'm here to keep her safe.

Joining in, "I know right? Weird. I'm going to have to suffer through the whole show AND all of the encores. I may have to buy that limited edition holo-shirt too; just so I can point to it and tell everyone how LAME the concert was."
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9
Archaius offers a knowing smirk that says, "I agree' as she steers the group in that direction.
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9
"Don't worry, I'll keep you tech's safe while you fix the generator." Finally, something I can actually help with.

As the child dances, Archaius ensures that EVERY ONE claps for her ward and fiercely cheers him on.

Sorry, I realized I never posted a roll

The vesk allows the others to show their moves. After they have finished, she hold ups her arms and shouts over the crowd. "Not bad, but now watch the best moves on the station! Or at least the cutest." Archaius kneels down and takes the small child off his shoulders. "C'mon kid, show 'em what you got. This is your big chance to prove you are the biggest fan here."
No one is going to 'boo' a youngling...would they?
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9
The large vesk gets ready to slam people to the side, then remembers her passenger sitting gently upon her shoulders. Aw scat! I could really hurt this youngling. Best to try and be a little careful. Archaius tries to nudge partying concert-goers aside, with little success.

Well, better these kids are with us I guess. The vesk lifts one of height challenged children. "It is sad these hatchlings are so small."
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9
Why would I bring a non-combatant with me. It seems thoughtless at best and malicious at the very least.
Archaius shoots over the din to the team, "Wouldn't bringing these hatchlings be...unsafe?"
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9
The vesk follows close to Vixi as she moves about. If someone recognizes her, it could be a problem. A crazed fan could attack or be so adoring as to start a riot. Best to be ready for whatever happens!
No real skills to help here.

No boons for the pregen
"I like the roadie idea."

"A concert AND some action. This vacay is shapin' up ta be pretty good. Point me in the right direction, we'll get your guy."
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9
A huge female vesk walks in. Her head swings around the room, taking in the gathered team. She seems to focus, concentrating very hard on following the rapid paced conversation. She then nods, "I like the music. It's pretty"
Phht! No real warriors...again! We should have ruled this place by now. Still, a ticket is a ticket. I am certainly NOT going to miss this.

Slotted Faction: Second Seekers {Luwazi Elsebo}
Information for this chronicle sheet:
Number of this Chronicle: 4
Starting XP: 5
Initial Fame: 9
Fame Spent: 2
Day Job: I don't think I can with a pregen
Never having played a pregen in SFS play before, I have a quick question about pregens and boons. Do I get to slot anything?
I will make a selection on the pregen by the time I make my first post.
I will use this name and icon, but I will use the stats from what ever I pick.
No other faction reputation has been earned.
Gah! Also only 2nd and did not know the tiers of the other two offerings. (1 XP away from 3). Willing to play a pregen though and apply it to this character.
I don't mind a rusty GM eggellis. Count me in for any of the following: (1-02, 1-04, 1-13, 1-14)

This was so much fun. Loved the characters and role play. Thank you again Kuey. Chronicle looks good.
Nice work team. Hope to see you on the boards.

This was a fun group to play with. Thanks for all the effort everyone brought to the table. Kuey, I'm really glad I got the chance to get into one of your games.

Exasperated with the paper work, the technomancer simply types:
APPROVED
It would seem that these interactions are the ones that have kept him out of the laboratory and in the field. His failure to recognize these opportunities for what they are continue to plague him as he further alienates himself from Starfinder leadership.
Perhaps one day he will learn to be more socially aware; however, that day is not today.

Archaius seems a bit disappointed by the admission. "As a scientist, I wonder what would have happened if we had accepted the fabricated evidence. However, we all face temptation. Though you faltered, you found the strength to come forward before things got out of hand. I believe that it is this desire for the truth that will make you a great Starfinder. Tell me, how will your people react to your departure? Will they be inspired to follow you to the stars, or will they see it as a betrayal by their leader, causing more isolation and greater dangers to the citizenry? Personally, I hope for hope."

"While blunt and inelegant, it does seem to track with what we know. It's their world, so I feel they should know everything. Better now than later."
Also thought Thersies was with us for the entire exchange with the scavengers.

Giving the book a quick perusal, "Mr. Kenyon, here are the rules to the game you inquired about. It's rather quite revealing. It would seem that the copaxis had some innate magic in the not too distant past." Archaius goes on to point out the details sequestered in the pages.

Is there a way to 'assist' WITHOUT having to join them in the ...maelstrom?

Rather matter of factly, "By the Stars he's going to die."

Just looking for Burn's 'Control Room', which we have since learned does not exist.
Burn wrote: "It's funny all this stuff orbiting the spheres, but nothing hitting them. You'd think the orbits would have decayed and all the stuff would be plastered to the sphere surface." Mysticism: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
Archaius takes a closer look at the spheres. "I believe these spheres are graviton-attuned like solarions! It seems almost certain that they are formed by coral-like growth, somewhat similar to what forms the copaxi, but much more densely packed. It is quite possible they could still be alive!"
"Perhaps if we tried communicating somehow?

"Well Mr. Kenyon, here is my best guess..."
Any chance to determine if this is what is causing the gravitational distortions and made for a challenging landing earlier?
"What if we hovered over this in the shuttle and dragged some of those nets we found through the floating debris?"
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9

Archaius scans the journal. "This would seem to corroborate our earlier finding that the copi were on the verge of drift technology centuries ago. However, some scientists thought it a danger and sought to prevent the discovery from reaching the population at large. How ironic. By trying to bury the future, the author only served to delay it, causing near irreperable harm in the process."
Will share the entire spoiler.

We offered to take the kit-bashed and sad DIY R2 unit. Don't see how these stowaways are all that different (of course we have to feed them).

"If it solves this without shooting, fine. I'd rather not spend the remainder of the trip patching you all up."
I'm good with splitting the price.

The Ryphoian looks on, wondering if he should speak up. Well, talking has never been my strong suit. Perhaps I should lead this to the others.
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9

"We've dealt with 'refugees' before. If everyone agrees to it, I am certain we can find room on our ship for Percolo, as well as ... others on your team?"

"Some philosophers insist that there are no 'accidents'. They are of a mind that actions taken, even thoughtless ones, have a purpose. As to what happened here? Try to image yourself coming to the shores of a distant land and finding a new people or species. It matters not from whence they came, only that you must acknowledged they exist. It is how you choose to move forward that matters most." Archaius approaches Therseis, looking the copaxi in the eyes. "It is discoveries like finding 'Less Than Three' that drive most Starfinders. He has been buried here, hidden away on your planet. Imagine what else awaits among the stars. Limitless possibilities."
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9
Thinking aloud, "I wonder if the 'Gift' from Triune might be related to the 'Divine Intervention' we heard of? Is it possible that by locking these few away and destroying the rest the original inhabitants invoked a god's wrath?"
MALE Winterborn Ryphorian Mystic 1/ Technomancer 1 | Stamina: 13 | HP 15 | Resolve: 3 | EAC: 14 KAC: 15 | F:+1/ R:+2/ W:+6 | Initiative: +6 | Perception: +9
Engineering: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20
"Well, how sad. Realizing the genocide of your kind whilst being sequestered away. I cannot imagine the horror."
Archaius toils with his communicator to reply. Worry not, you are no longer alone. The universe is far more understanding now than it once was, and your Gift giver stands tall among the pantheon. Is there anything you need at the moment?

Looking down, he offers the recovering Ivan a reassuring smile, "With caution I should say Mr. Kenyon."
