Universal Any-Kit

With an Interact Action, the Universal Any-Kit can magically be configured into a Field Scientist's, Hacking, Infiltrator's, Maker's, or Repair Toolkit.

A Tactical Universal Any-Kit functions as a Tactical version of the toolkit it is configured as, if one exists.

From the Paizo Blog yesterday:
***************************************************************
As some of you with keen eyes noticed, I did some poking around in the backend a couple of weeks ago to start setting up Starfinder Society (second edition). In doing so, I temporarily moved the Acquisitives faction into the new program. I have put it back where it belongs and I don’t believe any characters were harmed in the process, but if you notice lingering issues, please do let me know!
****************************************************************

You could also call them your Mark or your Target, though target is kind of broad and Mark may be used for the operative.

How about calling them your Focus?

I'm really looking forward to getting my hands on the two Pocket Editions!

Will these include the errata changes?

It was a great group of candidates, each of whom brought a unique personality and presented cool Mandates. I look forward to the continued focus on exploration for the Society - Congrats to First Seeker Elect Sarmak!

My favorite thing to do when I run this scenario is to pepper in some of my favorite NPCs

More of this, please!

Each time I reencounter an NPC in a new scenario, it adds to the continuity of universe. Doubly so when you get to see them progress in their own personal stories!

This isn't something for the Boon Store, but this seemed like a logical place to post the idea.

It always seemed weird to have items on a Chronicle Sheet that you can buy from the Core Book anyway - like a Static Arc Pistol on a 1-2 sheet. It can be cool story-wise, but you can buy it anyway and say it was acquired from the story, so I never saw the point of listing it on a Chronicle Sheet.

Instead, items that are the same level as the tier you completed could be listed at a 20% discount (or smaller - whatever doesn't break item level balance).

For example, a Zero Pistol, Frostbite Class (Core, Level 5)

On a Tier 3-4 Sheet: Costs the List price of 3060 credits - the advantage of buying it off the Chronicle is being able to get it at Level+2

On a Tier 5-6 Sheet: Costs 2448 credits - the advantage of buying it off the Chronicle is the discount, as you are already able to buy it at full price anyway

The goal is to make every item on the Chronicle Sheet special and actually significant for being listed.

Did they all have the same shirt on? I saw a 6 person table that everyone had the same shirt on.

Not that I remember. Our table was right next to the HQ stage next to one of the muster points.

That is where I noticed a 6 person table with all of them wearing the same shirt. Look like a fun table.

That must have been us then! Funny what you remember and what you don't. I remember each of their personalities and the pregens they played, but am drawing a blank on faces and clothing. Funny how the mind (sometimes doesn't) work!

I GM'd multiple sessions of SFS 6-06 and the SFS Special at Indy.

All were first time Paizo players and used pregens. The three brothers' goal was to introduce the two boys to roleplaying. SFS was the bait, I played the hook, and they planned to reel them in!

It was a great table - lots of banter between brothers and uncles/nephews, support of each other, and a really good time by all. 6-06 was a perfect intro to SFS with a great cast of memorable NPCs, diverse encounters, and ways for PCs to (literally, in one encounter) take center stage shine.

They took pictures of the various encounters and of each other having fun during the session, and all grabbed Organized Play numbers. After the session they debated who the best First Seeker candidate cast their votes.

No memorable single event or encounter, just a really fun and rewarding table to be a part of.

I'd love a way to obtain items up to CL+2 without having to luck out on a chronical sheet. It is frustrating when your Envoy gets access a Heavy Weapon that is their CL+2 on a Chronical Sheet, whereas the best your Soldier encounters are CL-level Small Arms. Spend those saved ACPs to help that equipment-strapped Soldier with:

Black Fifthday Sale: The character may buy a single SFS legal item up to CL+2.

Apostae Contact: The character is able to purchase SFS legal <Specific Weapon Type> up to CL+2.

I share this mainly for the benefit of hypothetical readers who might find it interesting or useful, because I do see the issue causing strife and misunderstandings from time to time. :)

Thank you, Kobold Catgirl - not only for the information but for the reasoning behind it. Very useful and important to know, and as an ally I appreciate the "correction" and insight. Also, thanks to Paizo for the Celebration Blog - I've enjoyed the IRL Character Histories and resulting discussions.
