The current status of two particular demigods in the setting... (potential spoilers)


General Discussion


So, I'm curious if there is any word or at least conjecture on the status of Nocticula, who has been stated in many places to be near fully deity power, and

Strange Aeons Spoiler:
Hastur, who is using Carcosa to gain power towards full ascension

So, is there mention anywhere about official status of these two? If not, what would you prefer to be the case?

Spoiler:
Notcicula's redemption/ascension is handled in the later volumes of this AP.

As the campaign setting in general assumes no APs have happened yet, they are still canonically demigods unless GMs want to run a game set after the APs in question.

EDIT: missed that we're in the Starfinder forums talking about their post-gap status.

I don't think anything's been said yet, probably to keep AP spoilers out of the Starfinder line.

They spoiled Iron Gods pretty well, so I don't think they are above spoiling things if it advances the setting

the pathfinder campaign setting is an advancing setting (at least in part) - future APs dealing with Cheliax will be in the wake of the Glorious Reclamation, for instance.

The Starfinder setting assumes at least one AP took place.

But that is all we know.

This is incorrect. While it does advance in some areas somewhat the only APs that are assumed to have occurred whole cloth more or less at this point are the original 3, I haven’t seen anything dealing with the Glorius Reclamation and it’s effects outside of HR and HV. Basically don’t assume any AP or Module has occurred until its events start getting referenced in later books.

And I haven’t seen anything in Starfinder reference any of the APs occurring, and I don’t think they will.

Well there's the:

Iron Gods Spoiler:
Ascension of Cassandlee into a Goddess atg the end of Iron Gods
but other than that I agree that until stated otherwise we can assume the APs from Pathfinder don't impact the timeline.

Ah right, I forgot about that, mostly because the Starfinder entity in question bores me in comparison to the [spoiler].

nope. HV assumes that Council of Thieves has occurred. Now, that's not necessary for the game, and you can run a council of thieves game after HV, but the AP assumes that CoT has happened.

We haven't had an AP dealing with Cheliax since HV (then again, there's only been two full ones published, one ongoing, and two announced) but ... all the Varisia APs have assumed certain things happening which occurred in the previous APs, and Cheliax, the only other nation in which multiple APs have occurred, also assumes that previous APs happened.

Now, in Starfinder, we are STRONGLY HINTED that Iron Gods happened.

Paizo keeps continuity, but in a soft way, so that you don't need to have kept up with all the past material to enjoy future or current product.
