Lorekeeper: A Brief Timeline of the Starfinder Pact Worlds
Welcome, Travelers, to the Lorekeeper series here on The Inn of Planar Crossroads. For our first video we are going to be presenting a Brief Timeline of the Starfinder Setting; specifically the Pact Worlds System. All the information presented here will be from the Core Rulebook, as that is the source book with the most lore available to draw from at this time. Without further ado, let us begin.
AG 0
The Gap ends. All Dates here are noted in AG-years since the end of the Gap in the Pact Worlds system.
AG 3
Triune reveals itself and grants the secret of Drift travel to the universe – particularly the worlds of the Golarion System. Verticite engeneers use this knowledge to construct the first Drift engine. The Chaos Wyrm, captained by the android Aleksana Guryari, makes the first documented voyage through the Drift, bringing home conclusive proof of travel to a distant star system.
AG 7
Eox’s Bone Sages launch the Magefire Assault against Absalom Station.
AG 12
First contact between the Golarian System and the Veskarium; the Vesk empire.
AG 36
Twenty-four years later the first of the major hostilities between inhabitants of the Golarian System and the Veskarium begin when the Veskarium invades, making landfall on Triaxus and ravaging the mountaintop city of Aledra. Though a multiworld alliance manages to drive off the invaders the ensuing “Silent War” with the Veskarium costs innumerable lives and prompts the the formation of the Absalom Pact. This initiating aggression is commonly referred to as the Battle of Aledra.
AG 41
The Absalom Pact is signed, binding all worlds in the Golarion System in a mutual defense and governance agreement.
AG 67
An exo-pathogen dubbed the Stardust Plague blazes through the Pact Worlds, killing millions.
AG 83
First contact between the Pact Worlds and the Shirren Race.
AG 154
Androids are granted full Pact World citizenship, thus rendering their enslavement by other beings effectively illegal.
AG 223
The Burning Archipelago, a mysterious set of magically protected cities withing the sun’s burning sea, is discovered.
AG 240
The Kasathan worldship Idari arrives in Pact Worlds space; taking up orbit around Akiton and preparing to colonize it. A diplomatic delegation from the Pact Council – backed by the entire space fleet of the Pact Worlds – convinces the Kasathans otherwise. The Idari instead takes up a solar orbit just past Verces and petitions for recognition and membership to become a Pact World.
AG 269
The Pact Worlds first contact with the once lost Azlanti Star Empire.
AG 287
Castorvel’s Lashuntas and Formians sign a landmark peace deal, ending a millennia of deadly conflict.
AG 291
After more than 200 years of conflict, the Silent War between the Pact Worlds and the Veskarium is interrupted when the Swarm invades both star systems. In order to survive the two governments agree to end their overt hostilities, working together to successfully rebuff the Swarm’s consuming destruction.
AG 317
This is the current year in the Starfinder Setting.
