It's time to take to the stars in search of interplanetary adventure as Tavern Watch plays Starfinder's newly-released second edition. This system blends the crunchy, high player choice character building of Pathfinder with a wholly original science fantasy setting, and there's really nothing like it. If you've ever wanted your space wizard to cast doom scroll (and yes, it does exactly what you think it does), this is the show for you.

In this case, our crew of completely licensed and insured adventurers has immediately found the trouble, and is on the way to stop it -- by passing through the maintenance tunnels of the station, carefully ignoring the confectionary building restaurant that's on fire. We'll find one that's not on fire next time, I promise. Our tunnel-delving crew includes:

• Liz as Zee, a Skittermander Witchwarper, which means she's about three feet tall, has six arms, is covered in fur, and is just the most adorable reality-warper ever.
• Joe as K'sol, a Shirren Mystic, making him a psychic bug-man from the stars.
• Phil as Sobok, a Vesk Soldier, who is seven feet of scaly lizardman with a two-handed chainsword.

This is the second in our three-part actual play series of Starfinder -- look for new episodes every Monday, and listen to episode 1 if you missed it!

This game was played using the second edition of Paizo's Starfinder, which expands their Pathfinder game into space. The core books are all released at this point (and they're starting to release their more compact "pocket editions" of the core books), so if you like the game you hear on this podcast, you can check it out for yourself!

Music from this episode is "Start a Trek," by Edgar Henderson; you can check out more of his music on Soundcloud.
