With Starfinder Galaxy Guide’s release right around the corner, we’re looking forward to seeing the adventures you all embark on in Desna’s Path! Whether you’re planning a fantasy, horror, dystopian, or weird campaign, Galaxy Guide has locations laid out for every adventure!
As a special sneak peak, we’re excited to share the opening spread of one of these genre-based chapters: High-Tech Adventures!
High-Tech Adventures put technology and magitech at the center! These adventures can be set in technologically advanced cities or space stations—like Absalom Station—or on planets like Aballon, where everything you see is a machine.
Characters in high-tech adventures, whether player characters or NPCs, may have a higher likelihood of being androids or having a variety of cybernetic enhancements and augmentations. Classes like the technomancer and mechanic (from our currently-running Tech Class Playtest) are spectacularly well-suited for high-tech adventures, but there’s more than enough space in the augmented reality court for operatives, witchwarpers, soldiers—or maybe even a rogue or ranger, transported from Golarion and left in awe of the technology around them!
As you’re building a high-tech adventure, campaign, or character, here are some questions to ask:
- How does technology improve lives for people in this world? Conversely, how is technology making lives difficult?
- Are the player characters working with or against the technology? Is it a tool in their arsenal or an impediment in their way?
- Is a new (or newly rediscovered) piece of technology changing the world—for better or worse?
- What happens when technology that everyone relies on goes awry?
Install your cybernetics, hack into the mainframe, and get ready for high tech adventures and so much more, coming in Starfinder Galaxy Guide!
