SurvivalistsSource Interstellar Species pg. 182
Survivalists are defined by independence and self-sufficiency. They often expertly navigate specific types of hostile or dangerous terrain: forests, deserts, or more remote locales such as dead space or post-apocalyptic cityscapes. Survivalists generally don’t rely on others and commonly live and work alone. However, the following statistics can represent hunters and warriors within a community as well as hermits. A survivalist might have some kind of sentient companion or a creature companion, such as a beast of burden or a hunting beast. A survivalist might arrive at a critical moment to help PCs as they travel through a barren wasteland. Alternatively, a survivalist makes an excellent antagonist in a wilderness setting since they’re capable of using every aspect of the environment against their foes.

DescriptionOff-gridders are those who—by choice or necessity—live apart from a technological society and are accustomed to self-sufficiency. Some off-gridders hold a deep-seated distrust of advanced technology, perhaps worried it might one day fail and plunge civilization into chaos. Others might be victims of circumstance, such as castaways who crash-landed on an uninhabited planet or criminals hiding from the law.
