Ketch Um's page

So my local lodge has too many Starfinder GMs, so if I'm ever to get a nova, I'll have to GM online. Would anyone be interested in 1-05 the First Mandate?

Just got done with Bounty #01, so am ready to take an another game with this alias.

Operative, level 1, 2.25 XP if you’re willing :)

So I started this scenario with 2 XP so I’d only be at 2.25 then? Okay.

Thanks for the run…couple questions.

So, I did some auditing of Ketch and realize that I did 2 successful games; The Commencement & Cries from the Drift. This gave me 2 XP…so does that mean I go to 3.25 XP and this gain a level as per normal SFS rules (presuming they have not changed?)

Am I still able to by items that are my character level+1 so I’m this case would be level 3 items?

After some brief research, Ketch comes back and looks at their captive and the others, Okay, it seems everything checks out. I vote they see their mother, I don’t need that sh*t on my conscious

What is her name, and where is she currently at? he says has he add the information to his wrist com.

He will take the name, and cross reference to see if the information lines up.

Ketch will listen to the plea, and study their mannerisms to discern how honest they are. After all, they tried to escape multiple times.

sense motive: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28

So, if Ketch honestly believes their words to be true, then he would vote to allow them to see their dying mother, as we are all surrounding them in case they get a stupid idea in their head again lol

As his ally tries to goad and coax their target to slip up, he keeps a keen eye on the crowd in hopes he spots the shape shifting con artist.

perception aid: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26

Ketch will follow the others as they track down which way their original target went. On the next floor, he sees the mass of slot machines.

This better be worth it…even this cacophony of lights and sounds is too much for me he mumbled under his breath as he tries to navigate through the throng of machines.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26

Ketch barely evaded the shot aimed at him. He then uses the statue to make the final goon track him.

stealth trick: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21

lazer pistol: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 211d4 + 1d4 ⇒ (4) + (1) = 5

trick attack damage from prior round on Goon #2: 1d4 ⇒ 2

Does an 8 really hit the Flat Footed goon? I rolled a 25 to add Trick Attack damage, it that comes before my actual attack.

Ketch uses his ally as a means to distract the guard. He tries once more to hide real quick before taking a shot at Goon #3 this time.

stealth check to hide before I shot DC 20+CR: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17

After breaking line of sight hopefully and the chaos of the fighting he shoots his Laser Pistol.

Laser Pistol: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

Fire damage if a hit: 1d4 ⇒ 1
sneak: 1d4 ⇒ 4

Thanks for the numbers :). I also shot at and missed #2

If I were to guess, I’d presume the Goons are the three tokens that are outlined in blue/green/red of the silver haired dudes?

Ketch will sigh as the three individuals seem to choose aggression as the answer. Fine, I guess this was inevitable

Ketch tries to use the environment around him to hide before he takes a shot with his Azimuth Pistol.

DC 20+CR, +1d4 & Flatfooted vs Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25

He hides behind a chair real quick before he lets a shot fly.

Azuimuth Pistol vs EAC: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Of course this couldn’t have been that easy Ketch laments in his head.

okay. Set

*Hmm, worked better then I thought* he thinks to himself.

Ketch will make sure his credentials are well hidden under his cloak. He attached the Merciful weapon enhancement to his Azimuth Laser Pistol real quick before he enters the VIP premises. He spots the potential subject as they play on one of the games. He notices they are ahead on winnings…but a decent margin.

They have more then what’s needed to repay the amount owed. Are they just being greedy? Is there some other motive behind their actions? I wonder what they are up to? I don’t want to interrupt them now, as it may cause a scene. Scenes are bad, more potential bystanders to fight through to subdue our actual target. all these thoughts rave around his mind as he aimlessly wanders around the VIP section.

Could work…I suppose potential bad publicity could sour their VIP patron? he thought to himself as the idea presented by his comrade.

We need to be smart about this. If we burnish the door then we’re probably gonna get tossed for being stupid. Maybe there is a computer station that might give me a better idea of who the Credstick belongs to

Is there somewhere I can plug the credstick into to find out more info on the owner?

culture: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22

Hmmm…what would an Astazoan be doing here? I know Abasolom Station has the most of their kind…but this isn’t going to be easy Twitch thinks to himself.

Before they board the shuttle, Twitch speaks up. Guys and gals…this might not be as easy as it sounds. You mentioned about a shapeshifter…this could be an Astrazoan. Their race is known for highly advanced shifting, being able to produce pigments pf various colors into their skin to replicate whatever form the my want. They still must be the ‘same size’…it’s plausible that the elf and dwarf are the same creature. Perhaps he’s got a gambling debt that is too expensive to pay…hence all the trickery and shenanigans as he will take the dose of sedative and the weapon enhancement in case things get unsavory.

Yeah, alive messed with stuff like this all the time. I break stuff down, tinker with it, put it back together. Let me see it as Twitch’s whiskers flicker with excitement. He always loved technology and the inner workings.

engineering: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
culture: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20

Twitch, grabs a small device and connects it to the end of the cred-stick. After a few moments of loading screens and test functions he looks to the gal that found it.

So, the logo is that of Venture Solaris, it’s a well known and frequented gambling joint in the nearby solar system. It appears the stick was created and issued about a week ago, but I cannot find out to whom unfortunately. Maybe if we head to the casino, the computers there could tell us more information. Wait…you said there were two other joints hit by the same methods? as it seems Twitch was in his own little world as it took a moment for the information of other victims to work there way to his processing center of his brain. Hey, we should go check out the other joints too. It’s gonna be a while for the casino shuttle to come back around

Alive huh…I guess that could pose a problem. How much of a payout are we talking then? as he asks so matter-of-fact.

culture check: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27

Twitch looks at the bartender then looks at some of the damages they point out. He recalls some bits and pieces of information he’d heard while docking.

[i]This wasn’t their first job, nor will it be their last. Gambling will make people do stupid s@#&, especially if they owe more credits to somebody bigger than them.[i] he thought to himself while mulling over the offer.

When does the next shuttle to the Venture Solaris leave? as plainly and calmly asks the bartender.

A male Yoski walks in, with a black dusty cloak on and the hood covering his head. His whiskers and head twitching and moving back and forth as he takes in the sights, sounds and an smells. He turns his head up, as the noxious fumes of body odor and stale food hits his nostrils.

Not the most horrible smell that has assaulted my nose…but not most pleasant either. So, I got a com-link about a job. I better be in the right spot, he would think to himself as he looked around to the bright lights swirling around him in hopes to draw a bigger crowd to the dive bar.

After a few people pushed past him, he realized that he was standing in the way and moved over to claim a spot in the corner. Even the first mission was a success, he knew better then to assume the next one would be. After grabbing a spot, he ordered a beer, and just people watched.

He spotted a Brenneri fiddling with something, but let them be. He then spotted a cook in the back, smoking as ashes fell into the food they were preparing.

Twitch, as his buddies called him, held back a bit of saliva as he gagged a bit at the sight of the food in the back. Note to self…DO NOT ODER FOOD

Just added my name to the list. Been forever since I did SFS so I might mess up a lot lol

Ketch Um, I'll yield my place if you're interested.

Nah, you’re good. It’s been forever since I’ve played so I would be like I’m a newbie again lol. Thanks tho :)

Works been busy. I see 6 ppl have joined so no worries I’ll catch another game. Thanks tho :)

It’s been forever since I’ve played Starfinder. Got a level 1.1 Yoski Operative collecting dust and might be dead lol. If anyone is still doing newbie runs :)

Ketch tried to make relaxing sounds to soothe the strange creature.

culture: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16

Ketch will stand in line to grab a copy of the new album. He was t a huge fan, but he liked to collect things: big name albums, booster parts, rare coins, and so much more.

fort: 1d20 ⇒ 16
ref: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Ketch moves across the debris and garbage littering by the floor. He ducks and weaves hoping to catch the feathery foe off guard as he takes a shot with his pistol.

trick shot 20+cr: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29
laser pistol: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
1d4 ⇒ 21d4 ⇒ 4

map is fine for me. We are to the far right of the screen

Ketch, walks as slow as he can. He tries to move beyond the safety of his hardier companions, and takes a turn around the corner. He keeps an eye out for any dangers that may lie in wait for them.

stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21
perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Ketch snarls as Velocity zooms past. He wonders if the android is renigging on their deal, and takes careful aim at the racer’s rig.

Velocity, you have three seconds to stop

If he doesn’t stop, Ketch views it as a breach of agreement and takes a shot at him.

Velocity if he renigs: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

dint forget Velocity agreed to take 2nd place :)

Ketch is surprised they are potentially gonna win this thing. He takes aim at Nyizin as they have gotten closer.

energy vs Nyizin: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

[ooc]targeting leader again[ooc]

Ketch takes another shot at the racer leading the pack.

1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 3 - 2 = 9

vs leader not named Ratrod or Velocity or already been hit: 1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (20) + 3 - 2 = 21

Ketch our of frustration and anger takes both his furry fists and slams them on top of the weapon. Much to his surprise the gun goes off, and sends a perfectly aimed shot at Nyizin and their racer.

targeting lead racer not named Velocity or Ratrod

energy weapon vs leader: 1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 3 - 2 = 5

Getting thrown about, Ketch looses his grip on the trigger and by the time he grasps it once more the shot almost careens into the stands. Who can hear lots of Ysoki curse words fly from his mouth.

Im not trained to be a g$! d#$n soldier

Ketch grumbles under his breath as his shots keep missing, and now his weapon is useless against Ratrod. He takes aim at who ever is in the lead, not named Velocity, and takes a shot.

targeting leader, of Velocity target next not named Ratrod

1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 3 - 2 = 13

are we allowed to switch lol

Ketch takes aim with his energy weapon at Lemgem’s racer and fires a shot.

1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 3 - 2 = 6

Ketch takes aim with his energy weapon towards Ratrod’s racer. He looks through the sight, and lets one rip.

energy wpn: 1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 3 - 2 = 6

I could be a gunner, since your have a pilot of +6. My attack is slightly better than yours. Also GM, can all 3 gunners target the same enemy?

I have a pilot +8, and acranged attack of +3

I presume I used my lacy action to strike the deal?

I presume it’s a neutral cease fire. We don’t fire at him either

sense motive if velocity is being by truthful about cease fire agreement: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20

Not bad at all I say. I can do a lil in lotsa areas. The more stuff I can do, the more I’m worth, right?

Ketch’s nose twitches at the talk of the racers, that he checks the tools near Velocity.

Hmm, sounds like I could help ya out, but ya gotta help a fuzzball out too. as he gives Velocity a wink.

engineee I presume to agree to nonfire/ 2nd place agreement?: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22

android

Ketch looks over the racer his team is putting together. He looks over the weapons, seeing if he can fine tune them to be more effective.

extra -2 for eac: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20
engineer for -2 extra kac: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

After tinkering with the guidance gyroscopes of the weapons, he decides to take a stroll through the race pits to check out their competition. He stops by the second pits, and gives the racer and rig a look up and down.

Nice rig ya got. Pushes out what, 1000 power per cubic foot. Top speed in 6 seconds?

sense motive to find out info on rig: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

So, seems like you need a pit crew?

Ketch looks on as the other help to stabilize fairing and other components of the racer.

loot for the two thGus?

ketch, seeing the final thug run, is worried about potential backup. He hurriedly strips the two downed thugs of their gear, and of any potential information that may be beneficial.

loot 2 bodies

Lets get the hell outta here
