Low Level NPCs

[MacShidhe]

I am attempting to create some PC race NPCs that are less than CR 1 but I can't find a way to do so. Pathfinder had NPC classes which would allow this. Any ideas on how to do so in Starfinder?

I apologize if this was already addressed in an earlier post.

See Alien Archive when it becomes available in a couple of week. That book's backmatter gives instructions on how to build monsters, including NPCs of PC races. Challenge ratings in the tables are 1/3, 1/2, and then 1 through 25.

In Starfinder, NPCs and PCs are built entirely differently. The core rulebook's character creation section is PC only. You need to wait for Alien Archive to make any NPCs at all properly.

You could use some of the NPC that have already been published and adjust them a little to make new ones. I plan on trying to keep them alive and advance them to return as villain they will meet again. I like the idea of that undead ship being repaired and re-crewed looking for the players at a later date.
