Quote

For centuries, our species languished from overpopulation and the inevitability of starvation. We ravaged our planet with decade-long wars caused by the endless search for food and resources. But one of us finally approached a daring solution. Why look inward, when we can look upward ... to the stars?

Welcome to a vast galaxy filled with endless adventure and otherworldly danger. Why do you travel through the cosmic void? Perhaps your planet is fully explored, so you search for new frontiers. Maybe you discovered a mysterious vehicle from the heavens and you unwittingly climbed inside. Or worse — you were forcibly taken far from your home beyond the skies, never to return. Whatever your history, you must look forward to your new future among the infinite expanse of stars.

This project was born out of a desire to translate science fiction to the world of 5e. While game systems like Starfinder and Spelljammer exist, none approach the ease and flexibility of the 5e system. This guide aims to provide rules for a galactic game with minimal changes to prioritize ease of learning and maintain the design goal of a rules-lite system.

This extensive setting sourcebook is open-ended and subject to future expansion. With each subsequent version, it will continue to grow with more detailed lore, locations, rules, treasures, spells, and encounters. Continue to support this project to follow its journey
