About the adventure
The cosmic event known as the drift crisis ended the Starfinder 1e timeline and changed everything going into 2e... now you get to experience it firsthand! Desperately search for a planet to colonize when your ship is flung into an unexplored section of deep space. Your backstory matters! Discuss with your group what kind of campaign you'd like to run. This journey is beginner-friendly but I will customize the adventure according to your characters to provide a deep and rewarding experience for Starfinder veterans. Endless sandbox possibilities in an infinite universe. I have combined various resources such as the Galaxy Exploration Manual, the Deck of Many Worlds, and the colony building rules from Horizons of the Vast to create the biggest and most interactive Starfinder campaign I've ever hosted. Never played Starfinder or any ttrpg before? No problem. Are you a veteran looking for infinite possibilities? I can provide a fun experience for you as well. There are premade character options and beginners are welcome to join if you simply wish to learn the system and dip your toes in for a week or two. Game details: • Free character builder with every book. • Hosted on Discord for voice, Foundry VTT for gameplay. • Standard Starfinder 2e rules. • Deep and interactive environment with sandbox gameplay. • Beginner-friendly, but expect a challenge. Your character may perish. • Newcomers are welcome to join at any point during the adventure. Don't be afraid to ask questions!

About me
Stop worrying about schedule issues, and start having fun! This tabletop community is LGBTQ+ friendly and supportive. I have a BA in creative writing and worked as a professional writer for years before committing to being a full-time Game Master. Running fun games is my passion, and I love to immerse myself in the lore of the worlds we inhabit together. I offer a premium experience with animations, high-resolution maps, voice acting, and a committed GM who takes the time to integrate your character into the world. I am generally a rules-as-written GM but I love to reward creative solutions and problem solving. You can expect that I will stick to the rulebook, especially in a combat scenario. I take a hard stance against generative A.I. for in-game content. Some game listings may use generated art, but all stories and encounters are personally designed by me without the assistance of A.I. prompts.

Creating your character
We will start with a session 0 discussion to finish characters if you don't bring a premade level 1. I can help! There is a free character builder called Hephaistos that can help you figure out the character creation process, and it's 100% free.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Download Discord, make a Discord account. Chat with the group about your potential character builds and which "patron" or faction you'd like your characters to be a part of. The possibilities are endless.
What David Lindsay brings to the table
I'll bring everything, you just need access to Discord and a sense of adventure! Foundry VTT works best on a desktop computer with at least integrated graphics, it may run slowly on a laptop but should still be playable with a good internet connection.

How David Lindsay creates a safe table
This game will be a goofy sci-fi romp with some dark horror elements (you have to fight enemies such as giant bugs.) We use session 0, breaks, and other safety tools to ensure a fun and comfortable experience for any kind of player.
