A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for 1st- through 4th-level characters.

When both digital databases and Guidance fail to identify a traitorous Starfinder from the Society's past, Royo dispatches agents to delve into the Starfinder Society's long-neglected archival records for answers. Research the past, uncover clues, and explore a hidden chamber located within the Lorespire Complex itself!

This is the fourth scenario in the ongoing story of the Year of Redemption's Rise. While it is recommended you begin with Intro: Year of Redemption's Rise, the remaining scenarios in the Year of Redemption's Rise can be played in any order.

Scenario tags: Metaplot (Redemption's Rise), Faction (Cognates)

Some sleuthing, some dungeon crawling

Nik B. — Dec 3, 2022, 04:29 pm

This was an enjoyable and fairly straightforward scenario.

There is a bit of a funky mechanic involving an NPC and GMs should read this carefully to understand how it should play out, but then the rest of the scenario is fairly traditional.

The combats were pretty reasonable, and the use of traps (and in logical places) made this feel akin to a classic (small) dungeon crawl.

In the end the player ended up with a lot more questions than answers and I am hoping this is just setting the stage for a sequel.

Run time was a comfy 2.5 hours.

Without divulging any specific spoilers...

Very Mild Spoiler, If That:

The early 200s AG is slowly developing into a very interesting and detailed period of the Starfinder Society's history.
