Here's your basics if you want to get started:
Humans are Core, Ratfolk are Core, Androids are Core, all of the races of Pathfinder will show up but some might be hard to find, Aliens are what you're working with.
Absalom Station is where you're probably from or one of the planets of the Golarion Solar System.

I already have a character that fits perfectly. I originally made her for a Martian Gothic + System Shock + Doom style game.
She's a cyborg thief and hacker, a thrillseeker always looking for grander heists. The name was meant as her online handle, it might change depending on how/if Starfinder has internet type networking.

I would imagine that most humans would be of the variant species found on Akiton.
Of course, for anyone whose ancestors came from Golarion, the timing of the disappearance of Golarion could be very important. Did it happen a century or more ago, or last week? I am leaning towards the former since I suspect that they don't want to have player characters born on Golarion itself.

Whoops for got about them. Lashunta are a certainty because they were mentioned in the fluff. Triaxians I have no intel on.

Novus Ordo is an android follower of Groetus. He came to awareness (as androids do, when ensouled into an old body*) floating in the spaces between planets. He was pulled in by scavengers, who were surprised to find him alive. In exchange for the strangely built space-suit he was wearing, and labor, he was allowed to join the crew for passage. Since then, he has traveled the systems, recording everything he sees, (a compulsion whose reason he does not understand, nor has even questioned).
He knows many things, but among them is not how he knows those things. No matter what world he is on (and even on Absalom Station or in ships in the farthest reaches of the great emptiness), he sees a moon in the sky that no one else sees... it is to this, he transmits his constant stream of data and analysis of the cosmos.
*Assuming android "birth" is (at least in part) the way it is described in People of the Stars.

I may have to rebuild my living Dragonstar PC. I remember his being quite fun. Slightly mad gnome wizard walking around with a laser (or was it plasma?) rifle bigger than himself...
I'd love to do the same myself...but my Dragonstar PC could not exist without the Dragonstar setting, and we're not likely to get anything close to that.

I am thinking about an android pursuing personal perfection through replacing its parts with more efficient and beautiful ones. It's interests are dance, art and targeteering. The optimal positioning of self and and the perfectly applied level of force to achieve one's goals. Hopefully it will someday merge with a ship of its own and pursue further improvements as a graceful stellar swimmer. Absalom Station SECFOR have decided not to commission any further units of the class due to deemed personality defects.

A droid that makes frequent use of the term "meatbag"
Someone that carries a miniature giant space hamster as a pet/familiar
At least one character that wears a brown coat
A reincarnated character that carries a sonic screwdriver, wears a scarf and has a companion named K-9
Bite my shiny metal ass
Go for the eyes/beer BooWhere my brown coats at?
EXTERMINATE!!!
But in all seriousness, I think I'd like to play a psychic android able to connect to the internet/outernet/information-magic-highway with my mind.

Original:
Member of a cult of planetary enlightenment that believes Golarion was "chosen", and wishes to establish the precise nature of the selection criteria.
Trickster mage who wears a mask and casts an illusion of a face so that security cameras never pick up on him.
Using old classes, Chaokineticist with Aether secondary who uses the fact that he's typically the only one present who can survive a hull breach to resolve fights.
Referential:
Kitsune ace pilot fighting alongside an exotically-colored tengu pilot and a grippli mechanic. Will shoot you if you tell him to do anything as impractical as performing evasive maneuvers by rotating the entire ship along its length-wise axis.

The Raven Black wrote:Technomancer mechanic that will make your spaceship faster whatever it takes :-))Bah. The only thing guaranteed to make your spaceship faster is drilling speed holes through the hull. Bonus: Improves ventilation, making the interior less stuffy.
Silly git, everyone knows you gotta paint it red if you wanna go faster.
