Star Trek Adventures - Second Edition - Allies and Adversaries Hardback Sourcebook

A GALACTIC MENAGERIE

“A warrior does not let a friend face danger alone.”

– Cadet Jay-Den Kraag

For 60 years, Star Trek™ has presented hundreds of beings and creatures as friends, foes, or challenges for main and supporting characters. The sheer variety of life-forms is an example of Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations (IDIC) and plays a key role in Star Trek’s storytelling themes.

This Allies and Adversaries Sourcebook enables Star Trek Adventures gamemasters to learn more about beings present in the Star Trek Galaxy and bring them to life in missions and campaigns.

Use this supplement to create, modify, and use interesting and cunning allies and adversaries, and collaboratively tell dramatic and engaging stories with your players, in your very own Star Trek-style episode or ongoing series!

The 128-page full-color, hardcover Allies and Adversaries Sourcebook features:

• Guidance on NPCs and their uses, expanding on the content found in the core rulebook, as well as advice on using NPCs as allies, including ideas on balancing conflicts and encounters to give your crew challenging and satisfying experiences.
• Information on many factions, including the Borg Collective, the Breen, the Cardassian Union, the Dominion, the Gorn Hegemony, the Orion Syndicate, the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Star Empire, the Tholians, and much more.
• Game statistics for dozens of Minor, Notable, and Major NPCs among the various species and factions covered in this sourcebook.
• Game statistics for a selection of creatures found throughout the Star Trek Galaxy, as well as rules and guidance on how to create your own original creatures for use in your missions and campaigns.

This second edition supplement is compatible with both first edition Star Trek Adventures and the Captain’s Log Solo RPG.
