Adapted From- Archives of Nethys Ancestries & Backgrounds
From the crystalline domes of Vastar to the overgrown wilds of Norasha and the drifting sanctuaries of orbital kinships, the peoples of the galaxy are as diverse and wondrous as the stars themselves. To be Starborn is to inherit the destiny of your people—a root, a tradition, a spark of adaptation that has survived cosmic catastrophe, drift, and mythic ascension. Choose your ancestry, and let your hero’s journey begin.
When building your Starfall Galaxy character, your ancestry is the first choice that roots your persona in the wild, vibrant reality of the Sundered Cosmos. Mechanically, your ancestry determines base traits like Hit Points, core ability boosts, languages, innate features, selectable heritages, and access to special ancestry feats. This article lists all currently available ancestries for play, with each entry linking to a detailed sub-article covering lore and rules. For complete guidance on selections and new ancestry options, bookmark this hub and explore the links as you develop your character concept.
Customization: Every ancestry offers several heritages for further personalization—choose from traditional roots or versatile, cosmic transformations.
Heritages & Feats: As you adventure and grow, select new ancestry feats and explore new heritage options that reflect your evolving story.
Roleplaying Depth: Ancestry shapes not just your stats, but your bond to cultures, beliefs, and the forces that forged you. Tie your character’s backstory and goals to your lineage for greater story immersion.
