Hello again, it’s now time for Patch #18! In our update today we have many many Pathfinder and Starfinder releases (if you’ve been hoping to see some Starfinder Society news, keep reading), and a whole bunch of other bug fixes!
Special Releases
In addition to our regularly scheduled bug fixes, we have two other pieces of big Paizo news! We released our normal street date titles this morning: PF Revenge of the Runelords Player’s Guide and Lord of the Trinity Star, and SF Guilt of the Grave World. We also threw in the SF Free RPG Day adventure Battle for Nova Rush, which has some fun tie-ins to Guilt of the Grave World. But wait, there’s more!
Starfinder: Lots of Starfinder Society
Today we also released six (6!) Starfinder Society books! That’s the Player’s Guide and first five books of the Invasion’s Edge season, which also come with a bunch of new character options for your Organized Play.
Recently, a massive alien starship appeared suddenly from deep space, emerging into the upper atmosphere of the planet Akiton at speeds sure to crack the planet in half. At the last moment, this starship slowed, crashing into Akiton’s Sloughscar Hills. Curious explorers and opportunistic salvagers descended upon the wreck, among which was a mercenary team in the employ of the Starfinder Society. Within hours, the ship’s automated defenses activated, driving the explorers out and unleashing dangerous monsters and magical effects into the region. This starship is the Wreck of the Returned.
Discoveries made during these initial investigations have led First Seeker Sarmak to believe the Wreck of the Returned has a connection to the mysterious First Ones, an advanced civilization from antiquity whose true name is unknown, and is the first step in a devastating invasion of the Pact Worlds. Although… something has gone wrong.
Deeply worried, First Seeker Sarmak established a base in the surrounding Sloughscar Hills. He’s put out a call for brave Starfinders willing to help establish and defend this fledgling lodge and to explore the Wreck of the Returned.
Welcome to Invasion’s Edge, the first season of Starfinder Society for Starfinder Second Edition!
Pathfinder AND Starfinder: More NPCs
This morning, we added NPC sheet support for the following titles:
- Guilt of the Grave World
- Lord of the Trinity Star
- Battlecry!
- Lost Omens: Tian Xia World Guide

We also have a Token Update for all previously released NPCs as well as the ones releasing today! That means that all of our Pathfinder and Starfinder NPCs on Demiplane are being updated with Roll20 tokens, so when you add those NPCs to a Roll20 game, they’ll be all set with a Roll20-style token!
