Seek the Wolf in Thyself!
This is the birth of Girrillian Vorask, one of my better and more complex adversaries. After years of running a psionic alien campaign with the Shri’ik, I decided to create one more grounded in “reality.” Part 1 of the Girrillian Chronicles BASICS Planet: Arion III Arion III was a major colony world within [Skaniis-Wen’tri] Joint…
This was an idea I developed based on a short story I wrote. I never got the chance to run it. BASICS The PCs are contracted by a government or corporation to investigate the circumstances behind the desertion of a special military unit. This unit is special because it was a prototype cybernetic and gen-gineered…
Alien race submitted to me by one of my players, handwritten. I transcribed it here but I apologize for not remembering which player it was that submitted it to me. Trog Physical Appearance & Structure Trogs are stocky humanoids with large square jaws and protruding canines. They also have large pointed ears. They have green skim and red…
One of my most remembered bad guys, he developed out of a single adventure and grew into someone my players talked about for years. The funny thing is that I never stat’ed him out. I never really found the need. I pictured him a cross between Jabba the Hutt and Marvel’s Kingpin. NPC/Campaign Antagonist Race:…
The Saint Sinner Campaign was my first complex campaign involving intrigue and where I finally felt like my version of the Star Frontiers setting was coming together. All the various “imports” like Kzinti, Khalia, and Saurons, as well as semi-original work like the Shri’ikk has a heavy influence on this one. I also resurrected an…
During a specific period of time, primarily during my college years, I was a pretty organized when writing an adventure. I used the GDW/Traveller Method of BASICS/PUSH/PULL/GIMMICK/ENIGMA method and hand wrote many adventures. I am in the process of transcribing many of these (with the help of my lovely and gracious wife). First on the…
This was a handwritten adventure that I transcribed (and slightly modified) that I ran back in the day, using my version of Star Frontiers under a modified Zebulon’s Guide system. This adventure used a map found in the first Alien Vs. Predator comic for the colony. As I was transcribing it, I added the notion of…
I think this is an adventure where I realize I was repeating myself. I had developed a fascination with asylums (thanks to Call of Cthulhu) but this was all to similar to Conildra Tatil. I started to fade out of SF by this time because I was running out of original ideas. BASICS Year 198…

At one point, my players got ahold of Federanium armor from an alien race, the Shri’ik. The overall story arch of this campaign was that this alien race knew how to forge Federanium, using Psionics. They decided to convert the armor into powered armor. I never really gave them stats of the armor but it…
