SFS #2-14: Data Purge SAT November 28th @ 6.30 PM UTC

Tier 9-12. No pregens!

Please schedule around 4 1/2 to 5 hours for the game.

In the interest of starting on time and not running over time please log in a bit earlier!

We'll likely use Classic and Discord.

Perhaps we can also run a perplexing scenario in the near future.

About the scenario:

A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 9-12 (subtiers 9-10 & 11-12).

There's a data leak somewhere inside the heart of the Starfinder Society, somewhere in the Lorespire Complex. Assembled for what was supposed to be an ordinary mission, the PCs find themselves sent to break into to the Society's central hub of operations. Travelling through ancient accessways, it's up to this group of dedicated Starfinders to plug the data leak and stop the Society's most precious secrets from ending up in the hands of their mysterious foes.

SFS #1-98: Into the Perplexity: The First Trial SAT December 5th @ 6.30 PM UTC

Exclusive tier 3-6.

Some things to keep in mind:

Players can only use pregenerated characters if they are playing this adventure for no credit.

Players and GMs can only ever receive credit for this adventure once [some exceptions if you already played this scenario during a con]. Due to the unique nature of this scenario, a player can never replay this scenario under any circumstances. A player who chooses to play this adventure for no credit can’t later receive credit for it.

This scenario does not include options for scaling. GMs running this event for fewer than six players or for groups whose APL is near the bottom of their level range should inform their players of the lack of scaling and that the adventure poses an additional risk for their characters.

GMs should run this adventure in a venue that allows ample time to fully explore it (at least 4 hours).

Into the Perplexity scenarios are more challenging than standard Starfinder Society adventures. In many ways, these scenarios are intended to be unfair to the players in context of both presented choices and mechanical challenges. Additionally, Starfinder Scenario #1-98: Into the Perplexity: The First Trial has strong themes of contagion and quarantine.

To preserve the novelty of the experience for those who have not yet played, please refrain from discussing the contents of this scenario with anyone who has not played or GMed it before.

Please schedule around 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 hours for the game to be on the safe side.

Due to the specific nature of this one, I'd only run it if we have close to a full party.

In the interest of starting on time and not running over time please log in a bit earlier and have your character ready!

We'll likely use Classic and Discord.

If you do not have a FG account, let me know if you want to sign up by other means - but bear in mind there could be some delay.

About the scenario:

A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 3-6.

Of the many buildings that make up sprawling campus of the Lorespire Complex, the Starfinder Society's central base of operations, none is more mysterious than the squat metal bunker that agents call the Perplexity. Its heavy starmetal doors cannot be bypassed by physical or magical means, but once each year, they swing open of their own accord, remaining open for a single day. The Perplexity's creator, a former First Seeker, claimed it was built to serve as a proving ground for the next generation of Starfinder agents, but the perilous enigma never served this purpose. Of the groups who have braved its depths since, the few who have survived to tell the tale have kept the knowledge of what they saw closely guarded, telling only the First Seeker of what they experienced. Are you brave enough to uncover the secrets of the Perplexity?

This special adventure can be run only by Starfinder Society GMs who have earned at least 4 Novas, and it cannot be replayed. In this scenario, the PCs' actions have consequences to their characters that run deeper than what is typically possible in Starfinder Society play. Players may choose to play this scenario for no credit to experience the story without these lasting consequences. To preserve the novelty of the experience for those who have not yet played, please refrain from discussing the contents of this scenario with anyone who has not played or GMed it before.

SFS #1-09: Live Exploration Extreme! FRI January 1st @ 4 PM UTC

Tier 1-4.

Please schedule around 4-5 hours for the game.

About the scenario:

A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 1-4.

Although the Society was unaware of what existed within the false moon Salvation's End when it obtained exploration rights, Starfinders have since identified a vast, uncharted megacomplex within. The Society's ready to launch its first major expedition into the interior, yet there is one slight complication: in order to fund its initial survey missions, the Society accepted a grant that requires this first mission be televised by an Eoxian reality show. What is already be a momentous mission for the Society is only exacerbated by the mandatory presence of an unliving camera crew—not to mention the interference of the live studio audience in orbit! Can the PCs uncover the secrets of Salvation's End while upholding the Society's publicity deal (perhaps becoming celebrities in the process)?

SFS #3-11: Into the Veskarium SAT January 16th @ 6.30 PM UTC

Tier 3-6.

Please schedule around 4 hours for the game.

About the scenario:

A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 3-6.

The Veskarium, a stellar civilization of conquest founded by the vesk, has long been an enemy of the Pact Worlds. When the Swarm threat unexpectedly attacked both civilizations, the Pact Worlds and Veskarium formed and uneasy alliance to combat their mutual foe. Since then, the two empires have maintained semi-cordial relations, and the worlds of the Veskarium have seen a larger influx of visitors from the Pact Worlds. Of all the organizations to benefit from the warmer relations between the two powers, none are perhaps more interested in exploring the Veskarium than the Starfinder Society. Thanks to the Society’s recent successes, the Veskarium has finally agreed to allow select teams of Starfinder agents to travel into the Veskarium and perform missions of archaeological investigation and exploration.

SFS #1-34: Heart of the Foe SUN January 24 @ 7 PM UTC


Tier 3-6.

Please schedule around 4 hours for the game.

About the scenario:
A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 3-6.

As the malicious jinsuls continue their conquest of the Scoured Stars system after chasing out the Starfinder Society, the Society's leaders have banded together to learn more of their new rivals. Before attacking the Scoured Stars, the jinsuls had adopted a new homeworld out in the Vast. The PCs join an expedition to this largely abandoned and hazardous planet in hopes of uncovering the origins of the jinsul menace.

Content in Heart of the Foe follows-up on the events of Starfinder Society #1-99: The Scoured Stars Invasion, though playing the previous scenario is not required. Content in this scenario also contributes to the ongoing goals of the Second Seekers (Jadnura) faction, Second Seeker (Luwazi Elsebo) faction and to the ongoing year of the Scoured Stars storyline.

About the scenario:

A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 7-10.

Having claimed the Scoured Stars system at their own, the dreaded and xenophobic jinsuls have declared a war of hostile reclamation against the other surviving species that fled the Scoured Stars long ago.

Led by First Seekers Jadnura and Luwazi Elsebo, the Starfinder Society rallies its fleet in defense of the jinsuls' primary target: the people of the Kreiholm Freehold. As part of the initial counterattack, the PCs find themselves in a key position to strike at the jinsuls' leader, change the course of the war, and set the stage for the final climactic showdown with the jinsuls.

Content in The Herald's War follows up on the events of Starfinder Society #1-99: The Scoured Stars Invasion, though playing the previous scenario is not required. Content in this scenario also contributes to the ongoing goals of the Second Seekers (Jadnura) faction, the Second Seeker (Luwazi Elsebo) faction, and to the ongoing year of the Scoured Stars storyline.

I'll be running this at an online con next week, and it looks like there hasn't been much interest yet. Maybe some of you are interested:


About the scenario:

A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 5-8.

The Starfinder Society has contracts with numerous organizations, but none are perhaps as well known as the Society's ongoing association with undead media mogul known as Zo!. It's that time when the Society must fulfill its end of the contract, this time by dispatching a team of skilled agents to perform impressive combat feats for a new spin-off show: Live Adventure Extreme!

Written by: Scott D. Young

Scenario tags: Repeatable, Starship


We will be using Fantasy Grounds Classic (I have an Ultimate Liscence)
Please schedule about 5 hours for the game.
