About the adventure
A mining probe picks up a strange signal in the asteroid belt. What is it you'll find when your team is hired to investigate, and why would this lost bit of history be so enticing for an armada of ravenous undead? And how is it that to find the missing puzzle piece, you have to get involved with one of the most famous media moguls and hosts in the galaxy?! This level 1-5 adventure begins when your party is just starting to try and make a numbe for yourselves across the Pact Worlds, a system of confederated planets and habitats. Your info-broker has lined up a great first job for you with the dwarven mining consortium Ulrikka Clanholdings, and once your job interview is squared away they want you to fly out to the Diaspora asteroid belt and look into something one of their probes picked up on a survey mission - but unfortunately this first job is anything but simple, and to uncover a great secret you'll need the help of some of the rarest people in the entire galaxy. You might be an antlike Formian envoy, a hive queen's attendant who leads from the front, or you might be an Elven Solarian, attuned to the cosmos and wielding a blade of light as you leave your homeworld of Castrovel for greater adventure. You might even be an Astrazoan witchwarper, distorting reality with your magic as you distort your flesh into any shape you wish thanks to your malleable body, any of these adventurers could be the heroes who help uncover the Guilt of the Grave World! ...Or you could asphyxiate on a world of undeath when your envirosuit's air supply runs out, your body a feast for mindless zombies. But that would never happen, right?

About me
I am Michael, 36, he/him - although I prefer to go by Chrono online. I've been playing tabletop games almost exclusively on virtual tabletops since 5e's release, embracing the playground provided by the relationship between players and the GM. I've been running RPGs on virtual tabletops since 2016, starting with 5e on Roll20. I've had a consistent group of friends and players since that time, gradually expanding into new territory by GMing for a group of people that were strangers to me at the start. Currently, I am most enamored with running Pathfinder 2e on Foundry VTT, which I feel is one of the best systems paired with the best online platform for it. Both the premium modules Paizo is putting out and the extraordinarily well made volunteer modules add immensely to the player's experience. I am free most of the time I am not playing or running a game, so I am always happy to answer any questions my players have. I'm always happy to get a message about my games, be it questions, positive reviews, or criticism! Anything I can do to help make the player experience better.

Creating your character
Players may choose to create characters before or during Session 0, following the normal rules for Starfinder 2e character creation as located on Archives of Nethys. No content from Pathfinder 2e will be allowed by default. Notify the GM if you are planning to use an Uncommon or Rare character option of any sort (Most requests will be approved). Do not use a Rare background unless explicitly offered to you. For third party content, ALWAYS ask the GM regardless. This game will not use any variant rules unless all players request them. The Elebrian ancestry will not be available for a starting character in this game.

What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need a microphone of decent quality, the Discord software installed and yourself registered, and a user account on Forge. You will need to know the basic rules of Starfinder 2e, and should know how all of your class feats and features work. Discord: https://discord.com/ The Forge: https://forge-vtt.com/ Starfinder 2e Rules: https://2e.aonsrd.com/players-guide
What Chrono brings to the table
I will be using the official Foundry VTT modules, optimized for playing the adventure path in a VTT format with unique maps, sound, and music. I also bring a selection of modules that I find make the game easier and more interesting to run and play. I am generally free to discuss your character choices, and what might be best from a narrative or mechanical perspective. If you want my opinion about how effective your build might be or how to change it to improve your role in the group, just ask - I won't otherwise 'tell you how to do things'. I use a variety of background music.

Safety
How Chrono creates a safe table
Session 0 will be going over the setup of the campaign, safety tools, foundry tips, introducing each character, and establishing the general 'vibe' of the game. I also will run session '0.5' as part of it, using remaining time after Session 0 to begin the campaign. At the end of each session I will go over how everyone felt about the session, and ask for any questions, comments, or concerns. These can be openly discussed or sent to me privately. Even if something is 'small', please feel free to speak your mind. The X-Card is freely clickable on Forge, and will give an alert to all players to cut the scene. I promise you that my games do not and never will contain or accept: T.R.A.S.H. (Transphobic, Racist, Ableist, Sexist, Homophobic) players or content, hate speech, misgendering, deadnaming, explicit sexual content, erotic roleplaying, nonconsensual advances or flirting.
