Starfinder: Alien Archive’s Arrival
Get your players ready for some close encounters of the tpk kind.
October is here, which means it’s time to stay watching your back because a skeleton could be literally anywhere, waiting in ambush to eat you the second your guard is down. It might not even be an actual skellington, it could be a dracula, or a Frankenstein (the doctor not the monster) or even a g-g-ghost. But October doesn’t just herald the ultimate in spoopytimes, it also means that you can get your grubby mitts on a copy of the Alien Archive for Starfinder, which contains even more monsters, in space, but also the rules for realizing that you were the real monster all along.
Which, if you haven’t been saying that to anyone who does a monster/alien-as-pc then, you have been missing out, but it’s never too late to get in on the fun. Seriously though, this book does a ton of work. Part monstrous manual, part build-your-own guide, this book really opens up Space in Starfinder. Opens it up and fills it with things that want to kill and eat you.
