Seems this thin shelled eight foot long intelligent arthropodan that is full of a limitless reserve of lighter than air gasses (hydrogen?) breaths fire and can slow fall using web balloons, filled with their gas is my first Starfinder Society character.
First off I hate the drawing in First Contact. The "balloons" look small and added onto a drawing. It's considered humanoid so I would think it should be a little more humanoid shaped.
Unless I missed it the big guys have two arms and two legs despite the drawing. If someone can find otherwise does it effect anything by having more legs?
The float people away attack in First Contact went away and is now like flight level 1 lasting 1 round per level. You can keep doing this every round though.
Can you breath fire if both or either hand is in use?

If you read the rules for PC creation in first contact, you will find that PC Haan do not get the balloon attack. As for why? Game balance, mostly I assume. That's the reason that they can only breathe fire 1/day instead of at will, and why they aren't CR 4 creatures off the bat. Also why they don't have a straight up fly speed.
If you have trouble reconciling this, just assume your Haan is a runt or has the equivalent of a physical disability, and joined the larger pact world society for a chance at a better life with species more akin to what he can do.
It says breathing fire is a product of their gas and mouth, so I assume you can do it with your hands full.

Well shoot. That's what I get for remembering what I read yesterday instead of actually going to the book.
Oh well, I assume the rest of what I said was right.
And hey, maybe you can make web balloons and hand them out to little urchins on Absolom station. Not ones big enough to carry them away, but y'know, enough so that being an 8 ft tall bug monster doesn't seem as scary.
