Playable species that are not from this world. Starchildren come from wildspace, the Astral Plane, or somewhere further out still, and a stranger’s first read of one is foreign rather than monstrous. That distinction is what separates this bucket from the unusual species: a Rolaran meeting a giff for the first time is looking at a visitor, not a threat.

| Astral Elf | Star-born beings of ethereal beauty, wielding cosmic magic from the Astral Plane. |
| Giff | Seven-foot hippopotamus-headed folk, most often met as spacefaring mercenaries renowned for martial training and a love of explosives. |
