The Dark Times: A Sci-Fi RPG Podcast

To celebrate the release of the Secrets of the Swarm Adventure Path, Sam and Stephen are going to cover an Ancestry that first appeared in Murder in Metal City, a DIFFERENT Adventure Path. Also, some theorycrafting takes place as the Dark Times Podcast Hosts discuss how Starships may work in the upcoming Tech Core Rulebook. Don't forget, another Build Bounty is upon us! To coincide with the release of the Absalom Station sourcebook, we want you to submit a Level 10 Build with a Starfinder 2E Class, plus:

Roll a d20 to pick a neighborhood, corresponding to the numbers on the official Absalom Station Poster (or whatever sounds cool to you).
Your submission is a denizen of that neighborhood and must have at least one of the following:

An Ancestry listed in the Demographics section of your Neighborhood’s statblock.
Membership in a Faction associated with your Neighborhood.
An Archetype associated with your Neighborhood.

Builds are due to our inbox below by midnight on Monday, September 14th.

Holy Blarg! Another book came out! And our Dark Times boys are right on schedule (late) to cover it. This episode we talk about the Downlow and Synthhaven sections of Absalom Station, and even discover a new Ancestry that makes their little homes on the station as well. Thanks again to everyone who submitted a build for our Adamantine Chef build bounty! Congrats to Marshall H and Meshimako for the victory.
