Description

From publisher blurb:

For millennia, humanity gazed at the stars with wonder, bound to Earth’s gravity well, dreaming of the day they would take their first steps beyond the atmosphere. That day came—and with it, a new kind of human.

Orbiters are the first generation born entirely beyond Earth, raised in the vast metal corridors of space stations, where the horizon is curved steel and the sky is an endless black void. They are not visitors to space—they are its natives, its pioneers, its builders.

Unlike their Earthborn ancestors, Orbiters have never felt the weight of full gravity, never walked on soil, never breathed air that wasn’t carefully regulated by life support systems. Their bodies have adapted to life in low-G, growing taller, more slender, more fragile—but also more agile, more efficient, more attuned to the movements of the void.

They are engineers, pilots, station operators, and technicians—the backbone of space infrastructure, the silent custodians of humanity’s future among the stars. But they are also outsiders to the world of their ancestors, strangers to the crushing gravity of planets, and misunderstood by those who live under open skies.

This booklet dives deep into the world of Orbiters, exploring their biology, culture, societal structures, and the challenges they face as a people caught between Earth and the infinite frontier of space.

This is a full 5e Race, with a description, Unique Abilties, for a Near Future Scifi setting.
