Dead Suns: Incident at Absalom Station

A Ship Without a Crew

When a brutal gang war breaks out on a docking bay in Absalom Station, the player characters are recruited by the Starfinder Society to investigate the unexpected bloodshed. Delving into the station’s seedy Spike neighborhoods, the heroes confront the gangs and discover that both were paid to start the riot and that the true conflict is between two rival mining companies battling over a new arrival in orbit around the station: a mysteriously deserted ship and the strange asteroid it recovered from the Drift. To head off further violence, the heroes are asked to investigate the ship and discover what happened to its crew, as well as the nature of the asteroid it tows. But what the players find there will set in motion events that could threaten the entirety of the Pact Worlds and change the face of the galaxy forever...

***

Talen and I are working up a schedule for running the first part of Dead Suns, Incident at Absalom Station.

The schedule for GM Corwynn's group (Freebooters) is:
WED 20SEP @ 330PDT
WED 27SEP @ 330PDT
WED 04OCT @ 330PDT
(A fourth session will be scheduled if needed.)

Signups are HERE (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/calendar/?id=2756).

The rules, are as such:

1) This AP is being run in CAMPAIGN mode. You may play a character you create which does not conform to SFS rules, but rather the rules laid out below. At the end of the AP, you can decide which of your characters to apply your (tier 1-2) Chronicle to.

2) Brand new level 1 characters may be created using the 4d6 drop lowest set each player will be given, or using a 10 point buy. They may also be created as any of the Golarian races in the Core Rulebook should you wish to play a space elf. ;)

3) Milestone experience will be used. At the start of the third session, all characters will be level 2.

4) All players should commit to a minimum of two sessions of the AP. Players who are absent will have their characters controlled by their "friends" so... ;)

5) If there are scheduling issues, it may be possible to play in a session in the other group. Just let us know.

Details on GM Talen's session will be forthcoming.

I would love to play in either group. I'd prefer the non-wednesday group, but can arrange to play in any of them... I can commit to all sessions no problem.

I've been dropping emails to people with the 4d6 drop lowest sets you can choose to use if you prefer them to the 10-point buys. I need email addresses from danextpope, kananesgi and Thunder_Badger. Send me a mail and I'll generate you a set.

Server is up and should remain so. Feel free to log on. So far I only have Stilgar's xml sheet. You can of course load your character yourself, or create it.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it tonight. Car broke down at work, and it'll be pretty late before I get home. If possible and ok with Corwynn, I'll join you next week.

You can divide this stuff up as you please. Your companion Kiri took a healing serum to replace the one she used during fight club, and she expects a full share worth of credits. Remember, you can sell items for 10% of their value, and you can buy items of up to level 3.

Sim would like his share of the credits and the battery and the tactical semi-auto pistol. Anything else sell for creds. If no one else is grabbing anything I"ll grab some grenades and healing serum and the auto-target rifle or laser for the drone. Quick release stealth also sounds kinda cool.

I have rebuilt my character completely and I'll introduce him at game-time. I should be able to make it home before the game starts this time. Lets hope.

Is anyone in the party injured (missing HP) before resting?

Stilgar, but he's terrified of rocks, so he's staying on the Acreon. ;)

Jexen has not had his Chronicle completed, nor has he had his participation reported. I would love to arrange for that. Get in touch.

The rest of you have had your Chronicles issued, and I have reported your participation on Paizo's site. At this point in time it appears that the reputation/fame earned is messed up and only showing 4 out of 5. (Mine only shows 2, LOL.) I can fix issues with the Chronicles/reporting (to the extent that an end user can manipulate things) if you let me know what is needed.
