Seek the Wolf in Thyself!
After the War of the Pales, the Truane’s Star Authority rounded up people they deemed as threats – HUSPS terrorists, criminals, malcontents, and politics enemies as well as known humans with psionics – and forced them on board a massive freighter known as the Malevolent Star. This move was condemned by many other worlds but…
One thousand years ago, the original Sathars invaded Volturnus. In their attempts to wipe out the Eorna race, they were victorious. However, because of the efforts of the Psi-Knights, they failed to take the planet for their own. The Psi-Knights closed it off from the rest of the Sathar forces by creating the nebula. The surviving…
The Sathar invasion of the region started 1000 years ago on Volturnus. The Sathar hit that world hard, out of a severe fear of the Eorna and their psionic power. The Sathar learned fairly quickly that their species was particularly vulnerable to the type of psionics the Eorna practiced. They developed armor to protect them…
This is part of my version of the Zebulon campaign, run in the Savage Worlds system. I am using some of the originally published material, and combining it with stuff from the Star*Drive setting as well as some Fading Suns influence. Additionally, I am using the guidelines/re-writes written by Chris Putnam as found on StarFrontiers.us. Mr….

Drawing from the The Volturnus Connection, Building background for the Volturnus campaign by Stephen Bonario in Dragon Magazine, #98, pg. 71 as well as other resources and marrying them with the changes I have made to the setting, I decided to write a further analysis of the war, the governments and the people. Amazingly, much of this is still…
STAR: Zebulon Prime Zebulon Prime (Z-Prime) is a F-class main sequence star that is in an unusual system containing a number of asteroid belts and five major planets.

Timeline of events c. 1100 – Sathar invasion of Volturnus begins. 2115 (5 FY) – A pathway through the the Pronus Fingers of the Xagyg Dust Nebula charted by robotic drones, as part of an operation headed by Professor Alorne Zebulon. A system is discovered hidden just beyond the edges of the Nebula, thus labelled…
The Xagyg Dust Nebula is the shroud that spans anti-spinward end of the Frontiers (aka the Zebularon’s Expanse). The homeworlds of the Vrusks, Dralasites and the Yazirian all contained deep with this massive section of space that is partially enveloped by an even more massive cloud of dangerous proto-stellar gases, radiation and dark matter. It…
Some art borrowed from Deviant Art The Serena Dawn is a Streel Merlin-class automated survery ship, with a robot crew and room enough for 12 survery live teams or 12 robotic survey. It has 12 bays for Seeker class survery ships or Palomino class robotic survey ships. Depending on the system the ship is sent…
