Can you play two different sessions of the same module with two different characters?


Starfinder Society


As the title, if I've already played a module (ie, Fugitive on the Red Planet, in this case PbP), and I want to play Starfinder Society locally with my spouse tomorrow but the only game being played is ALSO Fugitive on the Red Planet, can I still play it with a new character and get credit?

No, as that is called replaying and comes with restrictions. The only way you would be able to participate is if the table has less than four players. In that case, you could play for no credit to help fill out the table. Pages 8 and 9 of the Starfinder Roleplaying Guild Guide has the full explanation.


Ah, I couldn't find it in there when I looked. That's a real bummer. When the game is new like this, it's really hard to be able to play more than one character, so I don't know if I'll even be able to keep even with my spouse's character and play with her then.

The Commencement and Into the Unknown are replayable with different characters, so that should help!

The first part of Dead Suns (Incident at Absalom Station) is also replayable. The later parts of the adventure path are not.

You can GM and apply that to a different chatacter, again only once. I don't know if that helps. It is one way to level 2 characters at once


So I can't use a different character and play a session again? That's a shame, just messed up my Con plans December 2nd weekend :( wish they'd have more scenarios already

Ask the GM. Most here wouldn't have a problem with you playing for no credit just this once especially if the table is short.

Is there a problem with reporting the actual replayable quests?

I replayed SFS Quests: Into the Unknown this weekend at Carnage on a new character, but its showing up as no-credit in the player sessions online with a note of "Player has already played scenario at session # 8 of event # 156300 TotalCon End-of-Summer Sizzler on September 10, 2017."

The TotalCon event is listed properly, applied to 701, while the new non-credit one references -702.

It's a feature, not a bug.
The backend system cannot distinguish between evergreens and non-evergreens, so you always get that message for evergreens.

Just like it cannot determine (or be told) if you used a replay boon.

Has this ever been corrected?

To which question are you inquiring about?

Replayability needs no "correction". Paizo limits replay in not just Starfinder Society, but also Pathfinder Society. At least with Starfinder Society they've released much more replayable content early on, whereas with Pathfinder Society there were only a handful of replayable adventures for the first half of their tenure.

If you're asking about the reporting message you receive from replay, there isn't really anything to correct, either. It's a feature, not a bug. It's a message to you as a player, and has no implications for your character.
