artsmythe Posted November 18, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 18, 2023 (edited) I think DARWYN PRIESTLY is now ready for review. If my math, or my understanding of game mechanics or continuity are off, please let me know and I will make the necessary revisions.

mole75 Posted November 19, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 19, 2023 I guess Arabella is ready for review. I still need to spend a little credits, but I think all the mechanical stuff has been taken care of.

There are two three points that stand out with your character: Ability score: According to the core rulebook you cannot start with an ability score over 18. Skills: The operative edge is an insight bonus. It does not stack with the skill focus (making the skill focus feats they get at level 1 redundant once they reach level 7) Weapon: Because the baton and knife are operative weapons, you use your dex modifier to hit rather than the strength mod.

Okay. Got it. Thank you, @mole75. I am working on making those corrections. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arklytte Posted November 20, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 20, 2023 (edited) Firefly meets Cyberpunk, in StarFinder?!? Oh I DEFINITELY aim to misbehave!! I've looked all over the character creation rules, and can't seem to find our starting level. Am I blind, or is it listed elsewhere? Also, I note that there's no 3pp allowed, but is it safe to assume that all official SF material is allowed? Should we just use aonsrd.com? I honestly don't even have a germ of a hint of a character idea, but I'd like to get my ducks in a row before I start making plans.

Maester1216 Posted November 20, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted November 20, 2023 Good to have you in the ring Arklytte. Starting Level is 1 and all official Starfinder material is good to use.

Arklytte Posted November 20, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 20, 2023 Awesome! Thanks for the info, and the welcome. Now I just need to figure out the little details...like a character concept. 😁 Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maester1216 Posted November 21, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted November 21, 2023 As some people have noted (and I admittedly completely forgot about so that’s on me), ability scores can’t start higher than 18. So some might have to readjust their spreads to reflect this. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mole75 Posted November 21, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 21, 2023 Not to step on anyone's toes, especially not the GM 😁 But another mistake that is often made by players (myself included) is not to pay attention to the kind of bonuses that Starfinder hands out. If you come from PF1 you only rarely have the same bonus twice at level 1. However in SF, most (or all?) skill bonusses to classes are insight and thus don't stack with something like the skill focus feat.

darlis moonbeam Posted November 21, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 21, 2023 So question, its been a while since I last created a starfinder character, and never at just first lvl. Does the level by weapons and Armor dictate what level you have to be in order to use them?

Maester1216 Posted November 21, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted November 21, 2023 Technically no. I say that because there isn’t a specific rule in that regard, GM’s are simply reminded that allowing players access to gear above their current level could imbalance the game. To that end yes, no items above Level 1 at the start. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlis moonbeam Posted November 21, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 21, 2023 Thanks, I think I was already good on weapons but armor was lvl 2. I think I am mostly good on my character mechanically, just need to fix that on the armor and perhaps get a small bit more of gear. Then I will get all the fluff written up.
