Hi, maybe somebody can help me. Sorry if this is common knowledge. My gaming group and I attend Gencon every year and play many Pathfinder Society games. This year we are sacrificing one of them to play this Starfinder scenario.
Starfinder Society: #1-01: The Commencement
Short Description:A Starfinder needs allies & some of the best command influential factions. Explore Absalom Station & prove your worth to the Society - all while choosing a path to define your future. Level 1-2.
My questions are, will there be pregens available for this game, or if not how can we show up ready to play, since we can't buy the player's guide yet? Does anyone have any advice for people like us who haven't played, as to how to show up at the table with character sheets ready to go and a basic knowledge of the game mechanics? I'm really hoping they will make a high quality beginner's box in the near future, like the one for Pathfinder.

Day 1 - Pregens will be available (only option then).
Day 2 and beyond - Pregens are still available, or you can create your own characters using the Starfinder Core Rulebook that you picked up a day or more before the event in question.

So day 1, there is someplace to choose and pickup pregen sheets, or are they handed out at game table? In the past when I ask for pregen sheets in the Society play ballroom, they act like I'm asking for the keys to Fort Knox, before they will let me keep one. Hoping getting a character sheet doesn't turn into a real life epic quest :) .

Also, thanks for the reply!

Since I have no plans to attend Gen Con, I did not pay attention to any discussion of how you get your hands on the pregen character sheets. I think I assumed that you could pick them up when you sat down at the table for the game.

While attending GenCon and playing in the Into the Unknown quest series, a passing GM mentioned something about one of the Starfinder factions, which, if max'ed out in prestige/fame at the end of Season 1, would be receiving a special new playable-race boon.
I am trying to ascertain the truthfulness of his claim, and if so, which faction that would pertain to. I have been searching the boards for some time, and have not come across any threads discussing the matter. If they do exist, my sincere apologies - and I would appreciate a link to it.

This question is probably better suited for the Starfinder Society forums, but to summarize... I don't think there was anything Gencon specific other than Convention boons that were available. The GM probably was referring to the Wayfinder Faction Capstone found in the Starfinder Society Roleplaying Guild Guide.
The specifics of the new race haven't been announced yet. If you haven't checked out the Starfinder Society Roleplaying Guild Guide I highly recommend you do so, but feel free to message me if you have further questions, or create a new Thread on the Starfinder Organized Play boards.
That is it! Thank you very much, Wolfspirit!
