Rather than start a new almost identical thread I'll add to this one. I'm contemplating starting a second group on Dead Suns at some point soon, and having run up to part 4 with my regular group, I wonder how simplifying the "plots within plots" aspect by cutting out the Cult entirely might work?

In my first run through I did a lot of clue and plot building to ensure my detail-oriented players could work out what was going on in parts 2 and 3 especially, but for newer players to ttrpgs and Starfinder it might be too much to have essentially two rival big bad factions.

My thought experiment is to have Corpse Fleet front and centre as the force the PCs are chasing from the get go - for parts 1 through 3 the PCs are following Corpse Fleet operatives that are following a much more ancient trail of Cult of the Devourer clues that leads to the 'hiding place'.

How essential to the metaplot is it to have the two factions do you think, since I've not yet played 5 and 6 (though I have skim-read them)?

Interactions between magic and data
A discussion starter on how magic could interact with data, that is specifically stored data and not technology in a boarder sense. I include three suggestions for new Technomancer spells on this theme.

Hi,

I've started recently adding Starfinder posts to my gaming blog.

It's a mix of commentary on gaming and a new seres of creative/lore posts that I'm making for my own Starfinder Dead Suns campaign. Over time I plan on mostly focusing on creative writing posts within this category of the blog. Creative posts up so far are:

Absalom acquaintances 1:
This is the first post in a series I want to do adding some NPCs and locations to Absalom Station.

Energy Batteries and recharging
This is a discussion of how I handle recharging of batteries in my campaign.

Infosphere services
My take on what social media/communication platforms are popular in the Pact Worlds in the present day of the Starfinder setting.

It's all my own work with references to published sources, so feel free to use or adapt as you see fit!
