Denizens of Foundry Station; Android Security Specialist

   Adapted from Starfinder 2e Playtest


The Pathfinder 2e Gamemastery Guide is among the most useful resources I have in my collection. A large portion of the guide is given over for NPC Statblocks. What you will find below is a conversion of the commoner NPC to fit in a Starfinder 2e Stellar Marches Campaign. For this NPC, I applied a Warrior Android to the Guard template. I have changed out their gear to fit a science fantasy setting. 

As they ascend into space, governments become painfully aware that they possess more territory than they could possibly protect. Law enforcement is quite rare in the galaxy. Spacefaring companies and isolated communities tend to make use of private security companies.

Novice android guards are often employed in government-secured settlements, where they supplement private security contingents. In settlements where security is also provided by the community, the use of deadly force by private firms is frowned upon. To satisfy these perceptions, these guards are armed with the nonlethal pulse caster.

Cross-cultural interactions are fairly common among space-based societies. The risks of debilitating social missteps and catastrophic linguistic misunderstanding can be considered very seriously. Technological innovations can help to smooth these risks over, but raw translation tools miss many of the subtleties of language and social interactions. Mediators/Translators form a professional field to meet the needs of interstellar companies, governments, and organizations.

Denizens of Foundry Station; Synth Porter

The Pathfinder 2e Gamemastery Guide is among the most useful resources I have in my collection. A large portion of the guide is given over for NPC Statblocks.

The flow of goods is an essential component of space-based societies. It moves goods from their transit status on a ship to the market where they will be used.  The Porters perform a vital but unsung role in many Scifi settings. This NPC represents a common port worker on any space station. Space stations in this setting are hubs of economic activity in its purest sense. Transorbital pilots transfer massive slugs of raw material and cryo/chrono-sealed cargo containers between long-haul freighters and industrial centers. The arms and backs of porters move crates of food and finished goods from ship to port and back again.

Essential to maintaining the Foundry Confederation's spacefaring economy, these laborers are hired into porter unions that ensure the cargoes that pass through their settlement are efficiently directed to their appropriate destination. Android porters try to keep a low profile due to the anti-construct inclinations of many biological porter companies.
