Space. In some stories it’s the final frontier, in others it’s where no one can hear you scream. It is the scene of stately space operas and ragtag rebellions alike. The Voidrunner’s Codex brings science fiction to your Level Up: Advanced 5th Edition games, allowing you to adventure in galaxies far, far away or to boldly go where nobody has gone before. With new player heritages and classes, rules for psionics, starships, and a slew of alien monsters, robots, and foes, this set contains everything you need to start exploring the void, battling evil empires, or making a living on the frontiers of the galaxy.
  • Voidrunner's Codex is a hardcover containing new player options, equipment, psionics, and more!
  • Star Captain's Manual details starships, space travel and exploration, and starship combat--along with rules for building your own starships!
  • Escape from Death Planet is an introductory adventure for character levels 1-3. Can you get off the planet of Ninemoon before the Imperium destroys it?
  • Plus tokens, maps, a Narrator's screen, and more--all in a beautiful slipcase!

First Post
To expand on it a bit:

The VRC adds in all the Sci-Fi stuff. Starships, Cybernetics, Psionics, Laser Swords, Etc. It has some new heritages that are various alien standards and new takes as well. You can run a purely sci-fi game right out of the book.

But.

Just like the A5e core books there is no setting. You don't get a series of corporation names like Weyland-Yutani or Cyberdyne Systems or anything. There's no "This is Earth with the serial number filed off for Star Trek Purposes" type material. It's -just- the systems to run the game.

You could take the A5e core rules, plus the VRC rules, and apply them to the Starfinder campaign setting for an A5e Starfinder game. Or you could use Cyberpunk 2077's setting. Or Shadowrun. Or Firefly and Star Wars and Star Trek and More. You want a Sci-Fantasy game of Farscape? This is how you get a Sci-Fantasy game of Farscape.

Like I had (and kinda still have) intentions to do some Wildstar inspired material for A5e using the VRC.

It's all designed to be as setting-agnostic as possible.

First of all, YES PLEASE!!
Second of all, thank you for letting me know that I’m not the only person that still talks about Farscape lol.

Being one of the rare and wondrous people who remembers the glory of Farscape is no glendian pleasure vessel... but at least I have fond memories and the entire series in every format I can find.
