“Neth, also known as Joya, is named for the two-faced Nethys, god of magic. A fitting tribute to the dual nature of this 30-day month, the name evokes the world outside growing starker, even as relationships between friends and family grow stronger with the shared harvest.”

“We begin with Moonday, which is straightforward enough. While it may be a day for work, it’s also the night when worshippers of Desna, Ketephys, and night-loving religions hold ceremonies, often with only the moon as a silent witness. Always helpful if you’re looking to dispatch a target in the dark.”

“Fireday is market day in most places, and a great time to put eyes on a target who’s trying to lay low. Apparently, it’s impossible to resist the smell of honeycakes and the cries of cloth hawkers peddling their wares, no matter who you’re on the run from.”

—Pathfinder Lost Omens Travel Guide

Greetings!
In the marking of time in Golarion, we find ourselves in the month of late Neth, or Joya. Here on Earth (a planet dear to us in Pathfinder Reign of Winter canon), many of us in the United States find ourselves on the cusp of celebrating Thanksgiving, which leads to Black Friday and Cyber Monday. This sale is brought to you by Abadar, Master of the First Vault, and by Triune, the All-Code. Actually, given their portfolios, one could argue all our sales are sponsored by them. Chances are they’ll both survive until next year to sponsor it again. Or not—just wait until you see our Death and Dying rules for deities.

Kidding!

In this vault, you’ll find 15% off gorgeous hardcover, Special Edition, and Pocket Edition print books as well as digital versions of products, when available:

Pathfinder Secrets of Magic

Pathfinder Guns & Gears

Pathfinder Book of the Dead

As with every year when we hold our fall and winter holiday sales, please remember that the additional volume of orders will result in increased response times for our customer service department, as well as increased shipping times. While we are taking steps to mitigate this as much as we can, we also thank you in advance for your patience as we strive to make sure that these effects affect as few customers as possible.

If you don’t see everything you’re looking for, don’t forget that our annual Holiday Discount Code Sale is just around the corner in mid-Kuthona (that’s December for you earthlings.)

Pathfinder Adventure Path #197: Let the Leaves Fall (Season of Ghosts 2 of 4)

BEYOND THE WALL OF GHOSTS

The town of Willowshore is cursed! As fall begins, the town’s newest heroes find themselves in the position of leading preparations for the lean times to come. Yet the curse itself must be investigated as well, and when it becomes apparent that the answers might lie in a ruined monastery, the heroes must find a way to pass beyond the eerie Wall of Ghosts that blocks the only path! The Season of Ghosts Adventure Path continues with “Let the Leaves Fall,” a complete adventure for 4th- to 6th-level characters.

Pathfinder Flip-Mat: Night Market & Shrine

PURCHASES OR PRAYERS?

Whether it’s the bustling wonders of a night market in the middle of a city or the idyllic scenery along a secluded path to a remote shrine, danger can strike where you least expect it!

Pathfinder Flip-Mat: Night Market & Shrine measures 24" × 30" unfolded and 8" × 10" folded. A Flip-Mat’s coated surface can handle any dry-erase, wet-erase, or even permanent marker. Usable by experienced GMs and novices alike, Pathfinder Flip-Mats fit perfectly into any Game Master’s arsenal!

Starfinder Flip-Mat: Living Starships

IT’S ALIVE!

Blending complex biology and cutting-edge technology, living starships aren’t traditional spacefaring creatures but act as self-sustaining transports to which crews often form deep connections. These vessels can often gather power from solar energy or even regrow damaged systems—just like biological organisms! This double-sided map presents two such living starships—one grown from plant-like components and the other being the adapted interior of a traveling space whale. Starfinder Flip-Mats present ready-to-use science-fantasy set pieces for the busy Game Master. With Starfinder Flip-Mat: Living Starships, you’ll be ready for the next encounter.

Pathfinder Society Scenario #5-06: Ukuja, the First Wall

A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for 7th- through 10th-level characters.

A new portal has been discovered in the Maze of the Open Road, and the Society has sent the PCs to investigate what secrets remain on the other side. The PCs discover the settlement of Ukuja, first of the nine walls that make up the Matanji orcs' aptly named Nine Walls nation. There, the PCs fall under scrutiny for a fiendish plot to destabilize the fortress settlement and must work to prove their innocence, all while discovering the true villain behind a fiendish invasion!

Pathfinder Society Scenario #5-07: Sewer Dragon Crisis

A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for 1st- through 4th-level characters.

Drandle Dreng's unmasking as the member of the Decemvirate known as Sapphire has left the Sewer Dragons in a sort of limbo, with one of their strongest political allies largely stripped of influence. Chief Yiddlepode still believes that these agreements with outsiders is the best way to keep the Sewer Dragons strong, but, while that was an easy case to make before their territory was devastated, doubts have arisen among other members of the tribe in the ensuing years. Trapmaster Tok especially has begun to blame the Pathfinder for their misfortune. He has issued a challenge to Yiddlepode for the leadership of the Sewer Dragons, and she has turned again to the Pathfinders. The conflict brewing beneath the streets of Absalom threatens to destabilize the whole city. The PCs need to prove to the beleaguered kobold allies that the best way forward is together.

Starfinder Society Scenario #6-10: The Death of Kortus IV

A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for 9th- through 12th-level characters.

Today, a planet dies!

After suffering a devastating setback at the hands of the Starfinder Society, the Organization,

move to cut ties with their mining outpost on Kortus IV—and salt the earth as they go.

Enacting a brutal assault on the planet,

spoiler

the Order of Dawning Fate

intend to slaughter the planet’s entire population, scouring the city of Braerton from existence. Unwilling to stand idly by, the Starfinder Society mobilizes a fleet, bringing their strength to bear to hold back the barrage. From the bridge of the Master of Stars, First Seeker Edu Hadif oversees the rescue mission in person. The objective is simple—evacuate as many people as possible. But with one of the Order’s founders leading this devastating purge, victory is far from certain.

The fate of Kortus IV is in your hands!

Starfinder Bounty #10: Those who were Taken

A Starfinder Bounty designed for 4th-level characters.

In the wake of the Drift Crash, the three main anacite factions are barely avoiding open conflict, and the guidance of the Insight Array, the governing entity of Automatrix, can offer no clear path forward.

A criminal hacker took advantage of the holes in Automatrix security left by the squabbling and diverted a shipment of important parts needed for the creation of new anacites to an unknown location. The Insight Array hires a group of adventurers to track down the missing parts and find evidence of who stole them. The heroes explore the factory-cities of Aballon to find the missing parts.

Pathfinder Adventure Path #195: Heavy is the Crown (Sky King’s Tomb 3 of 3)

HISTORY SEALED IN STONE!

A sorcerous rival threatens to breach the Sky King’s Tomb ahead of the PCs, turning its contents and legendary guardian against all dwarves. The PCs must raise an army, venture into the Darklands’ depths, and clash with a titanic beast if they’re to defeat their enemy, explore the tomb, and uncover a lost legacy that could rewrite dwarven history! The Sky King’s Tomb Adventure Path concludes with “Heavy is the Crown,” an adventure for 8th- to 10th-level characters.

This double-sided map presents the surface structures of a mine on one side and a series of underground tunnels on the other. Starfinder Flip-Mats present ready-to-use science-fantasy set pieces for the busy Game Master. With Starfinder Flip-Mat: Mining Operation, you’ll be ready the next time your player characters want to dig deep for adventure!

Pathfinder Flip-Mat Classics: Haunted Dungeon

FRIGHTS BELOW!

The reputed horrors of ancient dungeons—and the forgotten treasures within—are enough to attract any group of adventurers. But regardless of a party’s foolhardy urge to delve into places better left alone, no Game Master wants to spend time drawing every creepy crypt or sinister hallway the characters explore.

Pathfinder Society Scenario #5-03: Heidmarch Heist

A Pathfinder Society Scenario for 5th through 8th level characters.

The PCs are tasked with escorting a valuable item slated to be gifted to a powerful potential ally of the Pathfinder Society, but as they are being briefed on their mission, an unknown thief is pulling off a heist within Heidmarch manor, and the item the PCs were to escort has been stolen just as Venture-Captain Shiela Heidmarch goes to show them the item. The PCs must pick up the thief's trail in a race across Magnimar to recover the treasure they haven't even had the opportunity to see, much less guard.

Starfinder Society Scenario #6-07: Race for the Dustwarren Cup

A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for 7th- through 10th-level characters.

The Starfinder Society has been invited to participate in the inaugural Dustwarren Cup, a three-day boat race across the vast, shifting sand dunes of Akiton’s Dustwarren silt sea. Hosted by wealthy eccentric and retired racer Mimli Nurkop, scion of the fabulously wealthy Nurkop ysoki clan, the Dustwarren Cup boasts an impressive prize and is drawing plenty of attention—not all of it wanted. As Mimli and the other racers prepare to brave the elements, battle local wildlife, and outrace their competitors, a band of pirates plots to abduct the Nurkop heiress! Weigh anchor, hoist the sails, and set sail for adventure! The stakes are high in the Dustwarren Cup!

Pathfinder Society Scenario #5-04: Equal Exchanges — Necessary Introductions

A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for 1st- through 4th-level characters.

Since the defeat of Aslynn, the Waterfall has become more of a staple around the Grand Lodge, starting to hold strange, isolated meetings with leadership and seemingly putting together some plan. Her most recent request is that a team of Pathfinder agents journey to Hwanggot and meet with the underworld dragon, Valashinaz as an introductory team. Venture-Captain Yi Da Som arranged the meeting through Valashinaz's kobold assistant, Purepurin. Unfortunately, between then and the PCs arriving, Purepurin forgot about them in the midst of pickling recipes from goblins and creepy crawlies invading the vaults! It's up to the PCs to help Purepurin bring Valashinaz's vaults under control while she summons the dragon to ensure these introductions go off without a hitch!

Pathfinder Quest (Series 2) #15: In the Footsteps of Horror

A Pathfinder Society Quest designed for 1st- through 4th-level characters, playable in 2-3 hours.

A group of powerful Pathfinders had to abandon the exploration of an underground complex after defeating a powerful lich and stopping a devatating ritual by the skin of their teeth. The PCs are tasked with exploring this complex, now cleared of threats, and cataloging what's there. The ritual, though incomplete, has still linked the site to its counterpart in the Netherworld, and once they enter, the PCs find that their task will not be as simple or boring as promised, as they have to fight through the shadowy mirror of the Netherworld complex just to get back home, with unknown threats that most assuredly were not cleared out.

The Starfinders have vowed to stop the Organization, a mysterious and violent criminal syndicate whose true name remains unknown and whose machinations threaten the lives of millions. Digging into the Organization’s past has revealed an interest in ancient Ulumbia, a long-destroyed civilization from Deepwater Prime with few archaeological remains of value or importance. So why the interest? Travel to Deepwater Prime to unearth the secrets of ancient Ulumbia—a mission destined to drive the Starfinders into direct conflict with important agents of the Organization.

Pathfinder Society Scenario #4-17: Trapping the Hag’s Claw

In the conclusion of the Year of Boundless Wonder, the Pathfinder Society and one of the members of the Decemvirate have pieced together a careful plan. Using one of the mysterious items from the vault, the draught of dreams, the Society will lay a trap for Aslynn, catching her via her own greed and desire to control dreams. The plan requires bait though, and Zarta Dralneen has stepped up to prove her loyalty to the Society yet again and finally finish off Aslynn. However, despite their secrecy, she's caught wind of the plan and is ready to overturn it and finally be done with the Pathfinder Society once and for all!

Forged Gaming, the company behind the Ultimate Game Master Screen Kickstarter, announced today that the project will support the Pathfinder and Starfinder RPGs with official rulesets and content. These products will be included in the ongoing Kickstarter as add-ons to the Ultimate Game Master Screen campaign. The addition of these iconic RPGs to the Ultimate Game Master Screen offers Pathfinder and Starfinder Game Masters even more opportunities to take advantage of the new product’s customizability.

“Forged Gaming and the Ultimate Game Master Screen team couldn’t be more excited to partner with an iconic publisher like Paizo,” said Jon Barry, director of Forged Gaming. “As a GM and player myself, I can’t wait to create official content for amazing RPGs like Pathfinder and Starfinder!”

Exact details of this content are still in development. The partnership with Paizo will offer backers of the project access to officially licensed content like magnetic rule tables and game-specific trackers, as well as thematic artwork.

The Ultimate Game Master Screen Kickstarter is helmed by the team at Forged Gaming and developed in partnership with RealmSmith. Using feedback collected from over 1,500 Game Masters across various TTRPG systems, the team developed a unique Game Master screen system that is customizable, affordable, and system agnostic.

“When we started roughing-in what we wanted to build, customizability was at the core of our thought process,” said Jason Azevedo of RealmSmith and project designer. “GMing and storytelling is such a personal experience; no two games or GMs are alike. We knew we wanted to create a premium GM screen that was flexible enough to be useful to Game Masters of almost any game, and affordable. I think we succeeded on all counts. Check it out and tell us what you think.”

The Ultimate Game Master Screen Kickstarter campaign is live through June 24, 2023. Earlybird pricing, which is still available at the time of this article, is US$89 for the core product and ranges up to US$279 for the Ultimate Backer Bundle. For more information on the project and the campaign, take a look at the Kickstarter!

This month’s Pathfinder and Starfinder releases offer new places to call home, monstrous myths, missing persons, and a duel with destiny! Check out these exciting new products available today at the Paizo Store and local bookstores and game stores around the world, including Starfinder Ports of Call, Pathfinder Adventure: The Enmity Cycle and Pathfinder Flip-Mat: The Enmity Cycle, and the Pathfinder Lost Omens Monsters of Myth Special Edition!

On the cusp of completing a grand project that would wow audiences and build solidarity between the five squabbling cities of the desert nation of Thuvia, a trio of renowned artists suddenly go missing, putting their plans on an indefinite hold.

The Starfinder Society travels to Castrovel to attend a museum gala celebrating the grand opening of its latest archaeological exhibit: a showcase of ancient civilizations of the Vast.

Angered at having been tricked by the Society, a villain watches from afar and plots to attack the group, endangering innocent lives in the process. It’s up to the Pathfinders to defeat her and her forces, ensuring peace within the prairies of Arcadia!

Starfinder Society Scenario #6-02: Drift Scars is a Starfinder Society Scenario designed for 3rd- through 6th-level characters.

The Drift Crisis has ended, but not all has returned to its former equilibrium. Mysterious paths through the Drift, termed "Drift lanes," have emerged, including one near Triaxus. It is this Triaxian navigational anomaly that Fitch, leader of the Wayfinders, tasks the Starfinders with exploring. But a gang of pirates has already claimed the Drift lane as their own and fiercely defend their prize! The Starfinders must deal with this threat, as well as attempting peaceful negotiations with whoever happens to be on the other side of this strange new tunnel through the Drift.

Pathfinder Society Scenario #4-14: Shattering Golden Chains is a Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for 3rd- through 6th-level characters.

A mysterious genie appears before the Pathfinders as they finish settling into the Sedeq Lodge and asks for assistance in seeing that their former oppressor sees justice. The Pathfinders must infiltrate the home of the genie binder and free the elemental beings that he's bound to his service, then confront him about meddling in the freedom of other beings and trying to overthrow the Pathfinder Society in Qadira. Unfortunately, his powerful benefactor tipped him off, so he's just as ready for the Pathfinders as they are for him!

While traveling to a distant star system as part of an archaeological mission, a Starfinder Society fleet is forcibly ejected from the Drift.

Can they thrive in this new home, or will they become just another casualty at the start of the Drift Crisis? This adventure can be played for credit twice, each time with a different PC, regardless of level range. Likewise, a GM can apply credit for running this adventure up to two times to a different PC in a level range of their choice.

It's up to a group of veteran Pathfinder agents to mount a daring rescue. But those agents must tread carefully, or the bizarre castle, infused with nightmares and otherworldly technology, will become their eternal prison.

A FINE ESTATE!
Elegant treasures and political secrets lie within noble estates, making them excellent targets to rob or defend. Regardless of the inclination, no Game Master wants to spend time drawing every courtyard or banquet hall.

People would do just about anything to get their lost treasures back. That’s where the Eyeswide Agency comes in. Drift Crisis Case Files tells three stories of intrigue, having the player characters take on the roles of detectives working with the Eyeswide Agency. In this book, you’ll find:

Dive into the vibrant virtual world of Tortoiseshell Cove and play as colorful squox intent on nurturing the perfect farm! But when the lines between simulation and reality become blurred, real lives are put on the line.

STEP RIGHT UP! HURRY, HURRY, HURRY, HURRY!

Starfinder Flip-Mats present ready-to-use science fantasy set pieces for the busy Game Master. With Starfinder Flip-Mat: Amusement Park, you’ll be ready for the next time your players want to unwind!

Creating a new NPC every time the player characters enter a shop or chat with a local on the street can be a real challenge, but the Starfinder Deck of Endless NPCs makes it as simple as drawing four cards from the deck. These cards combine to form a unique NPC, each with their own role, motivation, personality trait, and secret agenda! With over 100 million different combinations, you are sure to get an interesting new character every time!

Starfinder Adventure: To Defy the Dragon

Long ago, four tyrants conquered Genrovis with their starmetal mechs, until the adamantine dragon Ayleth freed the world. But she wasn’t the savior the planet needed. Centuries later, her rule is rife with corruption and cruelty. After a group of rebels runs afoul of Ayleth, they must unearth the legendary mechs of old— along with other secrets of the past— and use the ancient tech to defy the dragon!

Bright Lights, Big City

Not to mention the undercurrent of adventure lurking in every alley, shopfront, or rooftop. This double-sided Starfinder Flip-Mat features the streets and skyscrapers of a cutting-edge city center on one side, and a wide-open traffic circle around a modern sculpture garden— perfect for a vehicle or mech combat—on the other.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game

Pathfinder Lost Omens: Impossible Lands

Embrace the Unnatural
A war between two undying wizards once raged here for over a thousand years. Though peace has since reigned for millennia, the ghosts of wartime atrocities still haunt every corner of the lands they touched. People go about their day-to-day lives in a land that defies logic, praying the specters of history won’t rise again to plunge them back into chaos and carnage. Explore a world where cities are built on foundations of genies and wishes, where undead legions clash against titanic war engines forged from flesh. Travel a region where magic still writhes and roils from the wounds inflicted upon it—from the cavern depths where all spells lie dead to the scarred desert where the slightest arcane spark can erupt into a maelstrom. Can your heroes make their mark on a land ruled by the cruel egos of so many others, in the heart of the Impossible Lands?

Nonetheless, the skull requests—no, insists—that the Society return them to their former glory at once!

A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for 9th- through 12th-level characters.

A group of elite Starfinders is called to Salvation’s End to convince the residents of Vault-23A to evacuate the false moon. But the citizens of this utopia feel no fear and claim to have successfully fought off the forces of the mysterious Vault Lord—a tyrant who seeks to seize Salvation’s End as his kingdom. As the Vault Lord’s plans for conquest enter the next phase, the Starfinders are stranded behind enemy lines and must overcome a gauntlet of traps, trained soldiers, and the Vault Lord’s sadistic lieutenant to escape with their lives!

Pathfinder Lost Omens Gods & Magic Special Edition

Part of the Pathfinder Lost Omens Special Edition subscription

TEST YOUR CONVICTIONS
In a land without fate and a world too often void of justice, it falls to the gods to make or break the people who call upon them for salvation—or draw their ire. Swear yourself to the might of the gods and the power of their causes, or reject their offerings to live a life that’s yours and yours alone!

Pathfinder Lost Omens Gods & Magic offers details on major gods found in the Inner Sea region, including what forms their pleasure or wrath might take. It also presents rules for over a hundred other deities and philosophies so you can find the cause that best fits your convictions and take up weapons and magic in its service!

This deluxe special edition is bound in faux leather with metallic deboss cover elements and a bound-in ribbon bookmark.

Pathfinder Society Scenario #3-16: Escape from Oppara

Part of the Pathfinder Society subscription.

The plan starts like this: first, try to flee the city… but make sure they see you doing it! Escape from Oppara is part of the ongoing Taldor metaplot arc in the Year of Shattered Sanctuaries. It is the second and final scenario in the arc, which began with Pathfinder Society Scenario #3-11: No Time for Treason. While playing the previous scenario enhances the narrative of this two-part story arc, it is not required.

Pathfinder Society Scenario #3-17: Dreams of a Dustbound Isle

Part of the Pathfinder Society subscription.

Pathfinders stationed at the Grand Lodge have been experiencing strange shared dreams. The dreams reveal a mysterious island surrounded by dust and shadows. In the dreams, someone is trapped. They’re calling for help. And someone—or something—doesn’t want them to leave.

Dreams of a Dustbound Isle is part of the ongoing Absalom metaplot arc in the Year of Shattered Sanctuaries. It is the third of four scenarios in the arc, which began with Pathfinder Society Intro: Year of Shattered Sanctuaries and Pathfinder Society Scenario #3-06: Struck by Shadows. The arc will conclude with Pathfinder Society Scenario #3-19: Mean Streets of Shadow Absalom (Levels 7–10; July 2022). While playing the scenarios in order enhances the narrative of this four-part story arc, it is not required.

Starfinder Society Scenario #5-04: Fragment of the 4th

Part of the Starfinder Society subscription.

In the aftermath of the Drift Crash, the Starfinder Society dispatches their flagship, Master of Stars, to trawl the distant corners of Pact Worlds space for signs of stranded people, derelict starships, and dangerous planar matter ejected from the Drift. When a starship familiar to the Society, the Triunite vessel the Chronicler, is discovered immobile and powerless, Fitch sends a team of Starfinders to investigate. But this routine rescue mission will lead them far beyond the corridors of the Chronicler, to an annexed Drift beacon and the metaphorical doorstep of the mysterious "4th."

This scenario is one of four stand-alone Starfinder Society Scenarios directly tied to the Drift Crisis, a galaxy-wide catastrophe detailed in Starfinder Drift Crisis. While basic knowledge of the Drift Crisis enriches the experience of this adventure, it is not required. The Starfinder Society Drift Crisis Scenarios include: Starfinder Society Scenario Special #4-99: A Time of Crisis, Starfinder Society Scenario #5-04: Fragment of the 4th, Starfinder Society Scenario #5-07: Planar Bloom, and Starfinder Society Scenario #5-14.

What Can I Expect in My Package?
Archon will deliver a set of 33 miniatures (as listed below) to every Kickstarter backer, regardless of what they purchased.

Kickstarter Fulfillment Starts Now
Archon Studio is prepared to start fulfillment operations, but Ninja Division has informed Paizo that it does not have the money to fulfill their part of the obligation of shipping Group 1 miniatures to backers. Unfortunately, this will require additional shipping to be paid by each non-EU backer that was originally scheduled to receive their miniatures directly from Ninja Division.

North America and Rest of World: You will receive an email from Paizo containing a voucher code that must be redeemed on paizo.com to pay for shipping and provide your current shipping address. Archon will be fulfilling Group 1 at a cost of $13 per code received to these regions.

European Backers: A simple survey has been created for you to easily update your current postal address. Click here to fill out the survey.

What's Next?
Archon is already preparing the 7th wave of Starfinder Masterclass miniatures, and we will coordinate shipping Group 2 to backers as soon as Wave 12 is completed.

Thanks again for backing Starfinder Masterclass Miniatures. We know this process has taken longer than planned, and we thank you for your support as we work through the remaining waves of miniatures.

If you did not participate in the original Kickstarter, limited quantities of the miniatures will be available through paizo.com and archon-studio.com.

Have the demons truly been removed, or are there other, darker secrets waiting in the ruins?

Starfinder Galactic Magic

UNLEASH COSMIC POWER
Unravel the eldritch mysteries of the galaxy with Starfinder Galactic Magic! This book explores Starfinder’s magical possibilities, providing your characters fantastic abilities to overcome any challenge. Whether you master the secrets of arcane academies, steal spells with supernatural finesse, or draw power from the gods themselves, Galactic Magic redefines what you thought possible with:

• The new precog character class! They can bend time to their will and outwit foes with combat predictions!
• Exciting ways to channel magical might, with reality-warping rituals and over 100 new spells!
• New player options, from magical variants for every character class to legendary artifacts and magic items.
• Discoveries about the galaxy’s most powerful mystical forces, from alignment singularities and metastars to deities and the boons they offer!
• A study of eldritch secrets and everyday arcana, including how a magic user navigates society and the organizations that might support and oppose them.

CHAPTER 1: CLASSES

PRECOG
Through some cosmic event, you have come to understand the ebb and flow of time to a degree that only a select few can. You manipulate time dexterously—accelerating, slowing, or even reshaping chronologies to suit your needs. The skeins of time are yours to see, and you know how to apply enough pressure to adjust their threads ever so subtly. Your ability to understand the infinite possibilities of time also shaped you into someone capable of altering the material universe through powerful spellcasting, and you can harness temporal paradoxes to foresee the future—and dictate the present—in powerful ways.

And new options for every class!

Read Meet the Iconics: Ciravel and Iconic Encounter: The Taste of Time by Jennifer Kretchmer!

CHAPTER 2: GEAR

HYBRID ITEMS
Blends of magic and technology achieve results that neither alone could ever imagine, creating the likes of null-space storage, miniaturized vehicles, subwoofers able to inspire supernatural fear, artificial lifeforms that require virtually no sustenance, and more. These devices often resist strictly antimagical or anti-technological countermeasures.

MAGIC ITEMS
Traditional magic items translate mystical energies into a portable format that nearly anyone can use. Part of the appeal comes from unshakable nostalgia, yet far more often it’s magic items’ total disregard for scientific principles—their ability to translate their maker’s will into reality—that makes them so unique and valuable.

WEAPON FUSIONS AND ARMOR UPGRADES
Survival often means eking out maximum performance from an adventurer’s gear, and a magical upgrade provides an easy edge. These weapon fusions and armor upgrades concentrate eldritch energy into functional, long-lasting forms, and these latest models lend even the most technologically outfitted explorer an arcane advantage.

ARTIFACTS
Artifacts are exceedingly rare—often unique—items beyond the ability of any but the most accomplished artisans to create, and they’re almost as difficult to destroy. These legendary items combine tremendous power with the intrinsic lore that shapes their abilities. Adventurers might dedicate their entire lives to finding a specific artifact, and recovering an artifact might spur countless high-stakes exploits.

CHAPTER 3: SPELLS

Explore new spell lists and descriptions, variant spellcasting, and rituals!

Read Iconic Encounter: Pitstop Eclipse by Patrick Hurley, featuring the iconic witchwarper and technomancer, Zemir and Raia.

CHAPTER 4: FAITHS

FAITHS IN THE UNIVERSE
The galaxy’s faiths manifest in countless forms, from tiny cults to interplanetary religions with billions of followers. Although deities almost never intervene directly in mortal affairs, their influence is very present in lay worshippers and devoted priests alike. Faith is alive throughout the galaxy, whether used for good or ill.

CHAPTER 5: THE MAGICAL GALAXY

OVERVIEW
Magic can be measured, manipulated, and predicted, or else it never could’ve been integrated with technology. Even so, cultures perceive magic in wildly different ways, and a lot of magical phenomena remains associated with myth, antiquity, physical impossibilities, and secrets perhaps better left alone. In short, despite being integrated into everyday society, magic remains... magical

Pathfinder Adventure Path #175: Broken Tusk Moon (Quest for the Frozen Flame 1 of 3)

The Hunt Begins!

To forge their legacies as Mammoth Lords, the scouts search for an ancient artifact to light the way forward—the Primordial Flame! The Quest for the Frozen Flame Adventure Path begins with “Broken Tusk Moon,” a complete adventure for 1st- to 3rd-level characters.

A Starfinder Bounty designed for Level 1.

Pathfinder Society Scenario #3-08: Foundation’s Price

A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 1-4.

Following their recent successes in aiding the government of Qadira with apprehending an errant genie-binder, the Pathfinder Society earned the right to establish a new lodge in the port city of Sedeq! With the construction of the site complete, the Society sent a group to formally begin operations from the new edifice.

They never arrived.

With city officials threatening to auction off the new building should the Pathfinder Society neglect to occupy it, the Society sends another group of Pathfinders to investigate the lodge. Finding the brand new structure in a state of alarming disrepair, the Pathfinders have little time to search for answers before a booming voice greets them. If they wish to occupy the lodge, they’ll have to complete three tasks...

The Pathfinder Society has had a tenuous relationship with the government of the ancient nation of Osirion ever since the Ruby Prince increased restrictions on the activities of foreign-based explorers. Venture-Captain Norden Balentiir has worked hard to restore the Society’s reputation in the nation, and to guide the Sandswept Hall, the Pathfinder lodge in Osirion’s capital, away from its dark past.

Recently, hordes of undead have been surging up from the depths of the Sandswept Hall. Norden Balentiir fears that should this threat become widely known, it would compel the Ruby Prince to permanently shut down Pathfinder operations in Osirion. The lodge’s forces are locked in constant battle with the undead, and they need an experienced strike team to descend into the Hall’s lower levels and find the source of the undead menace!

“The Secluded Siege” is part of the ongoing story of the Year of Shattered Sanctuaries. It’s the first scenario in a two-part arc detailing the events befalling a Pathfinder Society lodge in the nation of Osirion. Other arcs explore other locations across the Inner Sea. While these arcs can be played in any order, it’s recommended that players experience the scenarios within each individual arc in order.

A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 1-4.

When a simulated training mission goes wrong, a team of novice Starfinders find themselves trapped in a corrupted version of the virtual reality training program.

If they choose to fight, they experience strange revelations and battle dangerous glitches—all leading to the truth behind the Data Scourge attacks.

By Vanessa Hoskins

Have you ever had a beloved family pet expire due to old age, illness, or getting hit by an errant enercycle? The Pet Revitalization Project (PRP) would like to help return your best friend back to your side. This Eoxian company will use special silicon-based technology to revitalize your pet, keeping their personality, friendliness, and loyalty intact*. Many will find their pets stronger, more resilient, and hardier than before revitalization; works great on guard animals!

Though this technology was previously only available to the richest and most well connected individuals, new sources of resin and modern techniques have driven the cost of revitalization down. The PRP would like to extend these savings to you and your family. If you and your family are without the means to afford pet revitalization, the PRP has set aside a fund to aid in the swift return of your perished pet.

Pet revitalization is only viable for a short time after a pet’s expiration without proper body preservation techniques, leading some owners to preemptively revitalize their pets, ensuring their pets will remain with them always. Don’t you want your best friend to be your best friend forever? Contact the PRP today!

This message has been paid for by the Pact Worlds Commission for Unliving Rights, the Eoxian General Council, and the Eoxian Office of Pact Worlds Ambassadorship.

*Less than 10% of revitalized animals experience side effects such as insatiable rage, unshakable ennui, or empty compliance.

Skills Acrobatics +16 (+20 to balance, escape, or tumble), Athletics +11 (+19 to climb), Stealth +16
Other Abilities solar battery (1 point), unliving

SPECIAL ABILITIES

Constructed Shell (Ex) For effects targeting creatures by type, a silicon mummy counts as both a construct and as undead (whichever type allows an ability to affect them for abilities that affect only one type, and whichever is worse for abilities that affect both types)

Silicon Casing (Ex) A silicon mummy’s protective exterior and nonfunctional organs limit critical damage; the mummy has a 25% chance to ignore the extra damage dealt by a critical hit and gains a +4 bonus to saves against critical hit effects.

Solar Battery (Ex) A silicon mummy can absorb solar energy in the form of Solar Reserve Points (SRP), which they can spend in place of Resolve Points. For every 8 hours a silicon mummy spends exposed to the light of a star, the mummy gains 1 SRP, to a maximum number of SRPs equal to one-third their CR (1 for a mummified prophet). For every week a silicon mummy absorbs no stellar energy, they lose 1 SRP. However, the mummy can intentionally enter a state of hibernation to lose only 1 point per 20 years, and although the mummy is aware of their surroundings and can fully animate as a move action, they are staggered for 1d4 hours afterward. As a swift action, a silicon mummy can expend 1 SRP to enhance either their next melee attack, ranged attack, or spell before the end of their turn. An enhanced attack gains a +2 circumstance bonus to its attack roll and deals an additional 3d6 damage if it hits. An enhanced spell increases the spell’s saving throw DC by 2.

Squox Tricks (Ex) A squox can use Acrobatics to jump instead of Athletics. In addition, a squox can use its Acrobatics bonus as its attack bonus when it attempts a dirty trick, disarm, or trip combat maneuver. If the squox succeeds at a dirty trick maneuver, it can choose only between the entangled and off-target conditions. A squox’s tail, two front paws, and mouth count as hands free for a disarm attempt.

PLOT HOOKS

Game Masters might consider the following plot hooks as a means of integrating a revitalized pet into any Starfinder game.

• The PCs attempt to break into the home of a corporate executive, only to find an augmented squox guarding the interior.
• A PC takes the Squox Companion feat, but later wants to ensure their little friend can survive the rigors of higher-level combat.
• Murders in an Aballonian archology trace back to a group of silicon mummy animals, kept as house pets and guard animals that have somehow formed a telepathic network and started to attack those who would abuse them.

March’s new releases rolled to April 7 but are worth the wait; they include Bestiary 3 with over 300 creatures, an unwelcome turn of events in Crash and Burn, and a relic left behind by one of the Outer Gods in Eyes of Empty Death!

By Chris Sims

The Haunter of the Dark, an aspect of the chaotic evil Outer God, Nyarlathotep, whispers to its loyal servants, the grioths (Starfinder Alien Archive 4 40–41), that something dire has awakened in the depths of the Pact Worlds sun. An elder being long imprisoned has broken free and moves toward the realm of mortals. Reading the portents, a grioth eclipse seer named Drenrika has determined that her raiders should be on Castrovel in the city of Candares during a springtime blood moon there in order to learn more about the burgeoning evil. And so, Drenrika enacted the eldritch rituals required to open a portal to Candares during the lunar eclipse.

Drenrika opened her gate in Candares’s Temple of the Dawnflower, an edifice almost as old as the city itself. Murderous grioth raiders mercilessly dealt with the temple’s clergy and poured into the city streets to murder and loot. They took out power substations to plunge parts of the city into darkness.

A survivor from the temple, a damaya lashunta mystic named Syell Yllsuoda, reports that the grioth leader remains in the sanctuary, awaiting something. Taking her down might close the grioth portal and strand the raiders without hope of reinforcements or retreat. The PCs are just the force for this decisive strike.

Grioths in the Sanctuary — CR 8

After fighting through the shadowy city streets, the PCs come to the Temple of the Dawnflower. Within its sanctuary, just beyond an ancient orrery, stands a lightless portal (represented with a “P” on the map) issuing a frigid wind. This portal is a powerful magical phenomenon of the conjuration school. A PC can suppress it for 1d4 rounds with a targeted dispel magic (dispel check DC 15) plus 1d4 rounds per 5 points by which the check exceeds the DC. If Drenrika dies or retreats through the portal, it closes 1 round later. To non-grioths, this portal is like a solid plane of stone.

From Starfinder Flip-Mat: Solar Temple.

Creatures: Drenrika (D) and her six grioth guards (G) wait in the gloom near the orrery, the eclipse seer perched on the device. They gaze up through the transparent dome, its apex 60 feet overhead, at the blood moon.

A creature that succeeds at a DC 12 Will save takes half damage and negates the shaken condition. This is a mind-affecting effect.

Psychotomimetic Saliva (Ex) Grioth saliva is laced with psychotropic toxins that overload a victim’s neurological pathways, causing intense, rapid fire hallucinations, confusion, and violent seizures. Creatures that are immune to mind affecting effects are immune to this poison.

TACTICS

During Combat Drenrika flies and uses high perches to maintain distance from her attackers. She casts her spells to separate the PCs and throw their attack into chaos. While she fights, she barks at her troops in Grioth, saying things such as, “We must hear the prophecy! Drive these fools away!”

Morale When she falls to 19 or fewer Hit Points, Drenrika retreats through her portal.

With the release last month of the Starfinder Flip-Tiles: Alien Planet Starter Set, Game Masters now have nearly limitless options when mapping out exciting encounters on a variety of alien worlds, from verdant jungles to barren wastes. Future expansions, including next month’s Starfinder Flip-Tiles: Alien Planet Moonscape Expansion, will provide even more options. If you’re strapped for time, feel free to run the following encounter from contributor Vanessa Hoskins and let us know how it worked in your campaign in the comments below.

Botanical Wardens — CR 8

A group of kiirintas (Starfinder Alien Archive 4 62) botanists on Stabrisis-14 are creating an interstellar botanical garden, featuring plant species from all across Near Space. Leading this program is a headstrong kiirinta named K’voo za Vivza, whose ambitious nature and tendency to overreach has upset the Builders of the K’voo tribe.

When a shepherd blossom, a rare species of harpy jasmine from Castrovel, started exerting control over other plant creatures in the garden, Vivza was at a loss as to how to proceed. Her requests for aid have been ignored by the Builders, and the other Reflectors of the K’voo tribe aren’t equipped for such an aggressive task. The shepherd blossom has moved deep within the botanical garden and is using a small cadre of carnivorous plant to defend itself against all intruders. Vivza turns to the PCs for help, hoping they can end the shepherd blossom’s control over the other plant creatures, but desperately hopes that they can preserve the other plants in the area. She hopes that by disrupting the shepherd blossom, the other plant creatures will cease to be hostile and can be guided back to their portions of the garden.

Creatures: A single mature shepherd blossom has gathered other aggressive plant creatures around itself, intending to keep them there until it is ready to pollinate the area with fresh buds. It has managed to gather two lumocanthas from the Veskarium Gardens exhibit and a single supenga pup from the nearby Desert Garden enclosure. While the resulting bloom of several shepherd blossoms might be interesting, it would cause enough chaos in Vivza’s Near Space botanical garden project to shut it down permanently. The supenga pup stays near the shepherd blossom, ready to pursue any threats while the two lumocanthas stand near the hiking trails nearby, ready to fire their laser spines on anything that moves.

N Medium plant
Init +0; Senses blindsense (thought) 60 ft.; Perception +16

• At will—dancing lights, ghost sound (DC 15)

Offensive Abilities verdant call

Tactics
Before Combat The shepherd blossom stays near its plot, hoping to bud soon. However, it continuously searches for more plant creatures to help protect itself during its reproductive cycle.
During Combat The shepherd blossom uses verdant call on any plant creatures not under their control, otherwise they uses their magic to ward off powerful creatures or befriend them and convince them to care for their offspring.
Morale The shepherd blossom protects its young buds until death.

Statistics
Str +5; Dex +0; Con +3; Int –3; Wis +1; Cha +2
Skills Athletics +11

Special Abilities
Verdant Call (Su) Once per day as a full-round action, a shepherd blossom can create psychic echoes that resonate with nearby plant creatures, creating an intense feeling of empathy for the shepherd blossom. This functions as a 5th-level dominate person spell (CL 5th, Will DC 15) but only affects plant creatures. The shepherd blossom can target any single plant creature it is aware of within 600 feet.

Lumocantha (2)— CR 2

XP 600 each
HP 25 each (Starfinder Alien Archive 4 68)

Tactics
During Combat The lumocanthas focus their laser spines on any creature stained by one of their dye capsules, otherwise they fire on the closest non-plant that has moved from their square in the last round.
Morale These plants fight until destroyed as long as the shepherd blossom lives. As soon as the shepherd blossom is destroyed, or if the lumocanthas are otherwise moved out of the range of its verdant call, they become docile.

Supenga Pup — CR 5

XP 1,600
HP 75 (Starfinder Alien Archive 4 120)

Tactics
Before Combat The supenga patrols around the shepherd blossom’s glade, searching for predators.
During Combat The supenga pup focuses its attention on whatever creature is attacking the shepherd blossom, or whatever creature is closest to the blossom; the supenga generally ignores paralyzed targets.
Morale This plant fights until destroyed as long as the shepherd blossom lives. As soon as the shepherd blossom is destroyed, or if the supenga is otherwise moved out of the range of its verdant call, it becomes docile.

For the past few weeks, we’ve been looking at the myriad aliens and starships that make up the Starfinder Battles: Planets of Peril set of prepainted plastic miniatures from WizKids, coming out next month. Now, alas, our journey through the galaxy has come to an end, and we’re putting the landing gear down on our preview cruiser. But before we touch down planetside, let’s get one last look at the creatures in the set that hail from the Starfinder setting’s home system, the Pact Worlds.

First, from Aballon, we have two sizes of SRO (Small and Medium commons) as well as the eye-covered predator known as the Sharpwing (Large rare).

Next, hailing from Castrovel is the Formian Warrior (Medium uncommon), the plantlike people known as the Khizar (Medium uncommon), the three-legged laser-wolves known as Tashtari (Medium uncmmon), and the predatory Vracinea (Large rare). (The ksarik was among the first figures we revealed, so you’ve already seen that one!)

Skipping Absalom Station and moving straight on to the red planet of Akiton, we have the four-armed giant Shobhad (large uncommon). Hailing from the Diaspora asteroid belt is the winged Sarcesian Sniper (Large uncommon). We cruise past a few more planets since we’ve already seen the dragonkin, but we must stop at Liavara to glimpse the Bantrid (Small uncommon) who makes its home on the shepherd moon of Hibb. While Liavara itself is home to the entities known as dreamers, they’re physiologically identical to the barathus of neighboring Bretheda, and they showed up at the very beginning of this journey, so we’ll move on to the last stop on the trip: the mysterious planet of Aucturn, where the Orocoran (Medium rare) lives.

And that’s it for Starfinder Battles: Planets of Peril, releasing in just a few weeks and available for preoder now! While I’d love to go on and explore more amazing aliens in plastic form, right now I’m going to take a break. Lie down. Get some rest. The strangely melodious tinnitus that has accosted me since we left Aucturn is growing to an unbearable cacophony, and I must get sleep. While I slumber in dreams I’m sure will be nothing but pleasant, may you all enjoy your new Starfinder miniatures, friends, and stay safe!

This month, we’re proud to release Starfinder Alien Character Cards, which serves as an easy reference when players want to know what racial traits a given alien species offers. While the Alien Archives provided the bulk of these species, we also took the opportunity to present five new-to-Starfinder species for eager players as well—gnolls, gripplis, kitsunes, kobolds, and samsarans.

It seems unfair to only let players take these classic fantasy species for a spin in the Pact Worlds, so here are some rules for GMs. Use these creature subtype grafts when crafting NPCs of the associated species. For more information on creature grafts, see page 133 of the Starfinder Alien Archive.

---

Gnoll

This subtype is applied to gnolls and creatures related to gnolls.
Traits: Blindsense (scent) 30 ft., darkvision 60 ft.; if the NPC is of the gnoll race (see Starfinder Alien Character Cards), it also gains the natural weapons and rugged travel racial traits and Survival as a master skill.

Grippli

This subtype is applied to gripplis and creatures related to gripplis.
Traits: Darkvision 60 ft.; if the NPC is of the grippli race (see Starfinder Alien Character Cards), it also gains a climb speed of 20 ft.; the jumper, swamp stride, and weapon familiarity racial traits; and Stealth as a good skill.

Kitsune

This subtype is applied to kitsune and creatures related to kitsune.
Traits: Low-light vision; if the NPC is of the kitsune race (see Starfinder Alien Character Cards), it also gains the shapechanger subtype graft, the natural weapons racial trait, Acrobatics and Athletics as master skills, and can use the following spell as a spell-like ability: 3/day—dancing lights.

Illustration by Matthias Kenningkeit from Starfinder Alien Character Cards.

Kobold

This subtype is applied to kobolds and creatures related to kobolds.
Traits: Darkvision 60 ft.; if the NPC is of the kobold race (see Starfinder Alien Character Cards), it also gains the armored scales and dragon-scaled racial traits and Engineering, Perception, and Physical Science as master skills.

Samsaran

This subtype is applied to samsarans and creatures related to samsarans.
Traits: Low-light vision; if the NPC is of the samsaran race (see Starfinder Alien Character Cards), it also gains a +2 bonus to saving throws against death effects and can use the following spells as spell-like abilities: 1/day—comprehend languages, share memory (Starfinder Character Operations Manual 141), stabilize.

Starfinder Battles: Planets of Peril releases next month, and we’re well into our exploration of what strange aliens you can find in every booster box. Last week we looked at the set’s starships, including three vesk models, so let’s look at some of the creatures from the Veskarium you can find in the set.

The Pahtra Stalker we revealed two weeks ago makes its home on Vesk-6, while the helpful Skittermander (Small common) and the decidedly less helpful Stridermander (Medium uncommon) hail from Vesk-3. Skittermanders are known for their bright colors, and we knew we couldn’t get away with making just one. But the set only had so many slots and we didn’t want to take up too many of them with a single alien species, even one as popular as skittermanders. The solution, at least for now, is in alternate-paint promos, of which we made two. We’ll have more information in the future about how you can get your six hands on these little guys. In future sets, if we have alternate-paint figures built into the main set, skittermanders will likely make a reappearance there.

While the Veskarium was initially at odds with the peoples of the Pact Worlds, the two warring star systems had to put their differences aside to face an enemy that threatened both of them: the Swarm! Perfect for use in the Attack of the Swarm! Adventure Path, the three Swarm figures in Planets of Peril are sure to be the buzz of any playgroup. Check out the Swarm Corrovox (Medium common), Swarm Mindreaper (Medium rare), and Swarm Thresher Lord (Large rare)!

Since most of the remaining aliens in the set call the Pact Worlds home (and thus would make an excellent theme to explore next week), let’s look at some of the aliens from other parts of the galaxy you’ll find in Planets of Peril, as you might encounter them on a journey across the galaxy.

First is the Jinsul Warrior (Medium common), which Starfinder Society players should recognize immediately (and which I won’t say much more about to avoid spoilers for past Starfinder Society plots). And since you’re not likely to get to the jinsuls’ home without going through the Drift, how about a Garaggakal (Medium rare), an outsider native to the hyperspace plane? Along the way, you might need to deal with an infestation of Electrovores (Small common), for which you consult an Orashu Headteacher (Medium uncommon) for advice, and ultimately employ an Uplifted Bear (Large uncommon) to handle them with brute force. Sadly, when you emerge from the Drift, you find the wreckage of another starship, its crew exposed to the vacuum of space and now haunting the area as dread Nihili (Medium common).

Will you make it back to the Pact Worlds safely? What allies and enemies await you there? Find out next week in our final preview of Starfinder Battles: Planets of Peril, available for preorder now!

Director of Brand Strategy

Coming soon to a Drift beacon near you, Starfinder Battles: Planets of Peril is the first full set of Starfinder miniatures from our partners at WizKids. The set offers 32 randomized figures in 3-figure boosters and includes not only a wide array of aliens (appropriate for both PCs from distant worlds to monsters threatening safe space), but also the first starships in the Starfinder Battles line. Each starship comes on a hexagonal base with a sturdy clear support column, making it a perfect fit for any starship battle using the Starfinder RPG.

A handful of starship miniatures were produced a few years ago by Ninja Division and players seemed to like being able to get multiple ships around a single theme—specifically the Eoxian Corpse Fleet and Pact Worlds fleet. So when it came time to pick the ships to include in Planets of Peril, we decided to do something similar, this time offering three Veskarium ship models. Here you can see the BMC Mauler, Norikama Dropship, and Vindicas Tyrant, which are uncommon, rare, and rare, respectively. (Note also that all starships, regardless of their size, are represented on a single hex, so they’re all on 1-inch bases.)

We had originally included only these three starships in the set, in part because we weren’t sure what ratio of creatures to ships was right for the set. We knew that we didn’t want common starships, as most of the time a combat is between the PCs and only a few other combatants. Most GMs, we figured, would need just one copy of any given model.

Fastforward a few months, to when WizKids approached us about pulling some figures out of the set to release earlier as the Galactic Heroes and Galactic Villains blister packs. We now had to replace those figures, and used that opportunity to not only add a dozen creatures that didn’t make the initial cut (for what was, at the time, a 30-figure set), but also to add another two starships at the uncommon rarity. These, we knew, needed to be something that would be useful to GMs and players both (given their uncommon status) and applicable to the most possible adventures. Thus, we landed upon including the Starfinder Society’s Drake and Pegasus. Each ship was presented at a variety of tiers and were, at the time, the only two ships available to every Starfinder Society party.

We hope folks find them useful and that we get the opportunity to include a Gorgon sometime down the road.

Next week, we’ll return to previews of the myriad aliens and monsters you’ll find in Planets of Peril, so strap on your jetpacks and recharge your laser rifles. Until then, Starfinders, be safe and roll 20s.

PS - WizKids really went above and beyond with the promo images they provided to show off the set’s contents. These are final production models pulled from a retail case. Let us know in the comments what you think of these (compared to the renders we’ve shown in the past, or the photos of the miniatures on plain white backgrounds) and we’ll work with WizKids to perfect future blogs. Thanks for your feedback thus far, and we look forward to continue working with the community to best promote Pathfinder and Starfinder Battles.

The following starship encounter takes place in the atmosphere of Castrovel, and can be incorporated into any Starfinder campaign with little to no alteration. For more information on starship combat in atmospheres, check out the Starship Operations Manual. While the encounter was designed with Starfinder Flip-Mat: Planetary Atmosphere in mind, you can use any hex grid to run it.

This encounter is Average difficulty for a group of PCs flying a tier-4 starship, but your PCs may be higher or lower in level. “False Flags over Castrovel” is an Easy encounter for 5th-level PCs, Challenging for 3rd-level PCs, Hard for 2nd-level PCs, and Epic for 1st-level PCs.

False Flags over Castrovel — CR 2

The player characters have just arrived in their starship at Castrovel and are on course to their landing destination when they receive a message over their ship’s comms

---

“This is Blue Talon 1, ordering you to stand down. Repeat, this is the Blue Talon 1. Land for inspection. You must comply immediately.”

---

The Blue Talon 1 comes into view on the PCs’ sensors, along with an identical ship; they are single-seat interceptors. They transmit codes identifying the craft as the Blue Talon 1 and Blue Talon 2 and indicating they are a patrol squadron for the Pact Worlds defensive fleet. A PC who succeeds at a DC 19 Sense Motive check can tell that the interceptors are moving to attack. A PC who succeeds at a DC 21 Computers or Profession (bounty hunter or smuggler) check recognizes that the codes are fake. A PC who succeeds by 5 or more notices the codes were altered to conceal that the ships are flagged as “AWOL.”

The Blue Talons aim to make the PCs hesitate long enough for the interceptors to close in before the PCs understand their hostile intentions. The pilots do not respond to any attempts to communicate and fight until the PCs’ ship is disabled.

Starship Combat: The PCs’ starship begins three hexes away from a short edge of the map. The Blue Talons enter the map from the long edge. In battle, the Blue Talons use their fast speed to harry the PCs with hit-and-run tactics. When the PCs move to pursue one ship, the other moves to attack from another direction.

Hazard: This combat occurs in the third-highest layer of Castrovel’s atmosphere. Castrovel has a normal atmosphere, so a starship can move up to 3 hexes without taking damage each round. A starship takes Hull Point damage to its forward quadrant equal to the starship’s tier × 2 for every hex moved each round beyond 3. If a Blue Talon has 50% or more Hull Points remaining, its pilot accepts this damage if they can gain an advantageous position. Furthermore, a storm coming in over the ocean is a moderate obfuscation hazard for any ship flying over the water. This imposes a –2 penalty on gunnery and Piloting checks, as well as Computers checks that use a starship’s sensors.

KC K-51 Sky Fishers (2) — Tier 1/2

Tiny interceptor
Speed 11; Maneuverability perfect (turn 0)
AC 14; TL 14
HP 30; DT —; CT 6

Shields basic 10 (forward 3, port 3, starboard 3, aft 1)

Attack (Forward) light laser cannon (2d4; 5 hexes), light torpedo launcher (2d8; 20 hexes)

Power Core Arcus Light (75 PCU); Drift Engine none; Systems basic computer, budget long-range sensors, horacalcum thrusters (Starship Operations Manual 22), mk 1 defenses; Expansion Bays none

Modifiers +3 Piloting; Complement 1 (minimum 1, maximum 1)

CREW

Pilot Computers +5 (1 rank), gunnery +3 (1st level), Piloting +12 (1 rank)

Development: If either ship is disabled or destroyed, the other attempts to flee. It is also possible the fighters disable the PCs’ starship. What happens next is up to you! Did someone pay some unscrupulous pilots to attack the PCs? Is this a ruse by the Pact Worlds fleet to take out the PCs without taking the blame? The possibilities are endless!

XP: Use the table on page 390 of the Starfinder Core Rulebook to determine the appropriate XP for this encounter, based on the encounter’s difficulty.

Ahoy, Starfinders! Today we’ll take our first look at the premier set of Starfinder Battles prepainted plastic miniatures from our friends at WizKids! This 32-figure set is currently slated for an early March release, so we’re going to have to really gun the thrusters in order to make it in before release. I hope to be able to show off photos of actual minis, just as you’ll receive them when opening a booster, but may have to resort to a few renders, as I don’t currently have all the figured photographed. Needless to say, I’ve heard the feedback about these preview blogs and am working to provide better quality content for our most loyal customers.

In Starfinder AP #1, the first iconic encounter takes place at a loading dock on Absalom Station, so it’s only fitting that our first premium set of Starfinder Battles miniatures is also a docking bay. This piece features a two-person cargo transport vehicle with detachable trailer, a bench for waiting passengers or resting crew, and a variety of cargo containers in several size, shape, and color configurations. These are perfect for providing cover for any battles that might break out while your party is loading or unloading their starship, and work well as accents with any number of Starfinder Flip Mats and Flip-Tiles.

No docking bay would be complete without aliens and starfarers to inhabit it. In two of the above scenes you can see the Pahtra Stalker (Medium Uncommon) and Cybernetic Golem (Large Uncommon), either of which you could find in a docking bay. Heck, since there are player character rules for the pahtra, you could even be one of them meeting the other one! The possibilities are endless.

Some aliens are less likely to be found in a docking bay (although, in the Pact Worlds or Veskarium, who knows?!) like the Barathu, Dragonkin, and Ksarik (all Large Uncommon figures).

That’s it for this week, but we’ll have more previews of Starfinder Battles: Planets of Peril soon!

I began a 12-week leave of absence at the beginning of February, during which life at Paizo, the games industry, and pretty much everywhere else changed due to the advent of COVID-19 and the resulting lockdowns. When I returned from leave at the end of April, I, like everyone else, was working from home and the to-do list I had left for myself in January suddenly needed to be rewritten.

Art by Nikolai Ostertag

One of the first new priorities on the post-COVID list was to help support the thousands of players who were now restricted to playing Pathfinder and Starfinder exclusively on virtual tabletop programs like Roll20, Fantasy Grounds, D20Pro, Astral, and others. While our partners running these programs have done a great job of getting as much Pathfinder and Starfinder content as they could up on their respective marketplaces, I was tasked with figuring out how we at Paizo could provide more to our customers directly.

Today, I’m happy to announce that we’re taking the first step in doing so, by updating the file format of our digital map products. Beginning with the September new releases, all digital versions of new Pathfinder Flip-Mats, Pathfinder Flip-Mat Classics, Pathfinder Flip-Tiles, Starfinder Flip-Mats, and Starfinder Flip-Tiles products will contain the PDFs our customers are used to as well as VTT-friendly JPGs ready for upload and use on the virtual tabletop platform of your choice.

With over 200 existing Pathfinder and Starfinder map dating back nearly two decades, it is going to take us some time to add these JPG assets to our back catalogue, but we’re going to start that process this week as well. We plan to update a handful of Flip-Mat, Flip-Tiles, and Map Pack products each week with VTT-ready JPGs, working backwards from the August 2020 releases. Customers who own digital map products will receive an email alerting them to the changes to their downloadable assets when they are updated.

We’re still working with our partners to make these maps (as well as many other Pathfinder and Starfinder products) available for purchase natively in each platform’s content store, but in the meantime, enjoy your Pathfinder and Starfinder map products in whatever campaign you’re running on the VTT platform you like best.

Let us know how else we can support you and your fellow players in this new digital gaming landscape, and we’ll see how long my to-do list becomes

Starfinder Flip-Tiles are a new addition to the Starfinder brand, and we wanted to show you some of the many cool things you can do with them. This encounter by Starfinder developer Jason Tondro uses tiles from Starfinder Flip-Tiles: Space Station Starter Set and Starfinder Flip-Tiles: Space Station Emergency Expansion products and follows the starship encounter, “A Singular Notion,” that appeared on the Paizo blog on July 24, though they can also be run independently of one another.

ESCAPING GRAVITY — CR 7

Singulos is a kasathan solarian dedicated to the negative aspects of the Cycle; convinced that black holes and singularities will inevitably triumph over the birth of new stars, he has forsaken many solarian beliefs and trained a generation of followers. Traditional solarians—covertly backed by the Idari—have sought Singulos for years, but it was the Stewards who finally caught him hiding on a remote planet in the Vast. Now he’s aboard a Steward prison ship called the Harrowstone.

But Singulos has many followers, and they’re determined to break him free. They’ve attacked the Harrowstone and killed most of the crew; the remainder, led by Third Officer Daneel Ris (LG female human), are holed up in the passenger section of the ship.

A Singular Notion: If you have played through A Singular Notion, “Escaping Gravity” follows when solarians from the Aphelion board the Harrowstone’s passenger section. If you have not used that encounter, the player characters are the nearest ship when the Harrowstone is attacked. Officer Ris begs them for assistance. “We have a very important prisoner on board here, and I think these creeps are trying to break him out. There’s only a few of us left... please help us!”

The player characters arrive through an airlock (area A). Singulos is kept prisoner in a large room on the middle of the western edge (area B), and his followers arrived through the hole in the ship in the southeast and have spread to the southwest. Officer Ris and the remaining Stewards are trapped behind a large door (area C), safe but unable to assist the PCs. Other rooms in the emergency section—lit by red lights—contain prisoners. They are unarmed and not a threat, and largely unfriendly to anyone they meet, but one room with 8 prisoners is on fire (area D); see Hazard, below.

Hazard: Fires have broken out throughout this section of the ship. Characters entering a square that is on fire take 4d6 fire damage (DC 17 half) and are at risk of catching fire (Core Rulebook 403). One of the rooms containing prisoners is on fire (area D); their pleas for help can be heard by anyone in the red-lit areas of the map. There are 8 prisoners in this room; if not rescued, 2 of them fall unconscious from smoke and flame every turn. Once all of them have gone unconscious in this way, the cries for help cease. If they remain trapped within the burning room, two of these prisoners die every round.

Creatures: Four solarians have reached the critical section of the Harrowstone. Unlike other solarians, they have forsaken photon revelations and cannot supernova. The stat block provided below is for human solarians; for enemies of other species, replace their Stealth skill and Close Combat feat with new racial abilities.

TACTICS
During Combat Singulos’s followers take move actions to use Improved Demoralize before attacking with their solar spears; their t-quark crystals give them a bonus +1d3 damage twice per day, which they use as quickly as possible. They attempt to use black hole and gravity hold to drag enemies into fire, which they are immune to. The solarians carry breaching guns to break down doors; they are not proficient with these weapons and use them against PCs only as a last resort.
Morale Isolated from their starship and with no path of retreat, Singulos’s followers fight to the death.

Development: Singulos’s followers can sense his presence; they move to the door of his cell and try to use their breaching guns to liberate him; a follower of Singulos can take a full action to try to break down the door, and has a 50% chance of success on each attempt. Only one person can try to break down the door each turn.

If Singulos’s followers succeed in breaking down his door, he emerges, a kasatha dressed in dark blue, purple, and black and surrounded by an aura of crackling power. He praises his followers, saying, “Well done, my faithful servants,” before abandoning them and flying out the hole in the southeast corner of the map, escaping custody.

XP: If the PCs prevent Singulos’s escape, award them 1,600 XP. In addition, for each of the 8 prisoners trapped in the burning room the PCs rescue, award them 200 XP.
