About the adventure
New players, especially if you are attempting to learn Starfinder, or any TTRPG game for the first time are 100% encouraged to join this game. I have primarily worked with new players and I am happy to teach you everything you need to know. Veterans are more than encouraged to join as well! Attack of the Swarm is a Starship Troopers-esque adventure set in the Starfinder universe. Expect survival, combat, drama, and a race to save the system in this campaign full of alien invasion. If you ever wanted to jump into the position of being able to save everyone from the horde that wants to eat us all, then this is for you! Multiple themes are encouraged. To fight for Suskillon, you can come from anywhere. Holy crusaders, heroes, adventurers, outlaws, and criminals. War blurs the lines between morality and survival, sometimes a killer with a gun is just as good as a soldier doing his duty against this foe.

About me
I've been playing and GMing TTRPG games for 9 years, with a focus on Starfinder 1e, Pathfinder 1e, and DnD 5e 2014 rules. Nothing makes me happier than working with new players who want to find a new way to express their creativity and explore a new system in the games and settings I enjoy. Through StartPlaying, I hope to reach a new wave of new players looking to become their other self in another world!

Creating your character
We will do a 10-point buy system, standard for the game. Everything must be run by me before it can be used in game so I can be sure you and I have a full understand of what you are capable of in game. This campaign starts at level 1 and will cap out around level 14.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
I will provide you with links, reading material, and essential rules to know beforehand, in order to make sure everyone has what they need before the campaign starts. I will also be available to answer questions outside of session time as needed.
What Robert brings to the table
I will provide an experience using everything available in Roll20 as much as I can, as well as materials and guidance to help you learn the system. If needed, I can even provide mock combat and roleplay before the campaign starts to get you on your feed.
Homebrew rules
Powerful Crits: Critical damage will be altered to make all critical hits powerful. The example of this is if you did 1d8 damage, on a crit you will do 8+1d8 damage, where normally you would roll both d8s. Full action potions: When healing with an item such as a Serum of healing, you can take a full action to carefully use it to maximize the healing you get.
