Hello everyone,
This is a thread for a campaign I have been running in Starfinder, called "Answers Found". The campaign has a tonne of plot twists and new things for the players to work out that hopefully translate well into these write-ups of the sessions.
The name comes from the way I did character creation. Most great Sci-Fi novels look at some deep philosophical question (e.g. Blade Runner, Hitchicker's guide). So I told players to think of some philosophical question and we would base the character off of that. These varied from "What does it mean to be happy?" to "Does power always corrupt those who have it?". I will not say which player had what question at this point, as it would spoil some of the secrets that they keep from other players.
As for myself, I have only ever GMed one-shot stories before this and wanted to go big on my first full RPG. I have also taught improv at an amateur level for a few years and try to use that within the game. In addition to me, there is DAY. DAY is the in-game name for an AI that helps the players by supplying information. IRL she is my assistant GM. She makes the maps we use in Roll20, takes notes during sessions and answers individual knowledge questions that players have in the game. This is explained a bit more with her introduction in session 1.
Lastly, there is one main oddity with the game here. There are 2 groups running the same campaign in parallel. Both groups are 4 people, but those people are vastly different. Because of this, you guys will get to see how the funny, helpful group 1 contrasts to the murder-hungry group 2.
I look forward to you reading these journals. Please feel free to give any feedback that could help me change the story or the way I write them up. Currently, I have gone for a fairly long and well thought out writing style, but if people would prefer a few paragraphs that cover each session quickly, that can change.
Hope you enjoy :)
