Starfinder
Starfinder is an upcoming RPG by Paizo Publishing set to be released in Augist 2017. It is going to be a future version of Pathfinder set IN SPACE. Not a lot is known thus far, but we do know this:
- There's gonna be ratmen IN SPACE, meaning that Paizo has Skaven IN SPACE before GW has in a playable form.
- There are going to be hardcover books and a Starfinder Adventure Path, much like Pathfinder has.
- Can be easily integrated with regular Pathfinder, and presumably the D20 system as well.
- Golarion is fucking gone. As in totally gone, nobody can remember what happened to it, it just fucking vanished.
- Core classes:
- Technomancers: the magical version of computer programmers, hacking the laws of physics.
- Operatives: use stealth and skill to get in and out of dangerous situations.
- Soldiers: specialize in heavy weapons and armor.
- Mystics: channel the universe's mysterious energies, often through faith in a god.
- Solarians: shape the energy of stars and black holes into armor and weapons for themselves. (Jedi with the serial codes filed off.)
- Envoys: use wit and charm to bolster their allies and demoralize or befuddle enemies.
- Mechanics: build their own custom drones or rely on an implanted AI to aid them in combat.
- Core Races: Like 2/3rds of these are already availible as PC races for Pathfinder. How and if they'll be changed is unknown.
- Lashuntas: a race of telepaths.
- Androids: artificial people.
- Vesk: powerful reptilian aliens.
- Shirrens: insectile people who recently broke free from a predatory hive mind.
- Kasathas: four-armed aliens from a desert world.
- Ysoki: A plucky and hotheaded race, often called "ratfolk".
- Humas: Everybody knows humans.
More news as it comes out. This game is not to be confused with Starjammer, which is Spelljammer for Pathfinder. It's also made by the people maintaining the wiki for the D20 Pathfinder SRD, aka the website where you can find all the rules for all of Pathfinder and its many 3rd party books.
