Can you link it? I can’t find it.
whats the name of the race you used for the story?
The race I used was the Draconis mod, though a fair warning it doesn’t seem to like it when you beam up into the ship while immobile.

Wow, now this was a long one, no doubt. But a lot of thought was put into how the story would go on. I thought it was interesting how there’s an entire society of feeders who live underground under heavy security. Its especially interesting seeing this from the Johanas’ point of view from a journalism standpoint, with how he did his best to fit into the community all while trying to learn more about it. It was all very fascinating!

“The waves of the ocean
Ebb and flow…
Ebb and flow…
And beneath the gentle tide
The Pink Sunbeams dance to and fro…”
The vibrant Hylotl matron slowly swung and swayed to the gentle melody of the traditional radio- a favorite pastime of hers when she wasn’t busy tending to the many needs of the pupils in her dojo. As she sang the lyrics to her favorite song, the automatic wooden doors swung open- and her significant other stepped into the room.
“We’ve run into a slight predicament…” the whiskered Hylotl sage said as he approached his large lover. “There’s a leak in the basement; we’ve run low on healing water.”
The vibrant Hylotl halted her dance upon hearing the news. “Oh? How ghastly! Where did it all go off to?”, she asked.
The whiskered sage grunted. “A stray Masteroid has struck sector three. The water, among other things, has leaked through a hole in the wall. What has been lost is now drifting in space somewhere.”
“That’s…even worse.”, the matron gasped, her level of concern rising. “Is everyone alright? Should we evacuate?”
“Everyone is is safe, my love- there’s no need for worry. Though we may have to upgrade our forcefield generators and order a few minor replacements. Including a new shipment of healing water.” The sage paused, mulling something over for a minute. “…Still, it couldn’t hurt to depart while the repairs are being made.”
“Where shall we go?”, she asked. “Perhaps a lovely Lush planet? Or a refreshing Ocean planet?”
The sage began to pace. “It would need to be a place where my pupils can train in peace…all while being accustomed to the unfamiliar…” He then stopped in his tracks, as he turned back to the matron. “…I have it. We can gather healing water as part of their training.”
Meanwhile, the most of the pupils in question could be seen in the cafeteria. Naturally, Futoi was there, attempting to satiate her aggressive appetite with a massive meal. Luckily, the dojo had its own troop of personal caretakers, who tended to the needs of the more…corpulent individuals.
Instead of merely relying on her comparably tiny arms, the dojo’s caretakers were there to hand-feed Futoi from a ladder. While convenient, Futoi did miss the ability to eat on her own without having something constantly out of reach, or inadvertently making a mess. Still, as she let the caretakers feed her, a thought began to echo through Futoi’s head: it was the words of her sensei.
“The power to use the world itself as an extension of your own body…when a Hylotl reaches true spiritual awakening, they are able to utilize a force that other races are ultimately blind to. When a Hylotl sees this force, they are capable of giving it form…”
“True awakening…with this power, would I truly be able to regain my independence?”, Futoi thought. “I may never see my feet again, nor will I be able to enter a room without lodging myself between its entrance…but if I can master this skill, I might be able to reach what I currently cannot…”
For a while, Futoi was lost in her own thoughts, pondering the possible and the impossible with her plus-sized physique. That is until, her sensei stepped into the room, as his students clamored to greet their beloved teacher…
This was just a short writing exercise, since its been a while since I’ve really done anything! As short as it is, I hope you enjoyed this quick update with Futoi.

An update on Futoi I did enjoy quite well. I can only wait and see what comes next!
Nice seeing other people posting stories again! It felt like I was the only one for a while

not much of a story just a character but uhh here goes ig
I’ve made a lil half-dragon half-human (forgot the species name) guy named Even.
His main thing is mostly that he volunteers at a mostly ChenkTM branded fat related lab-thing (not really a lab but it’s similar? like a senior home mixed with a lab but fat people and not a senior home in a sense at all) in exchange for getting food and a nice bed to sleep in
He mostly runs the bottom part of the lab, aka the underground part/basement. it’s where his bedroom thing is and most of the lab’s storage, and does most of the jobs most other people don’t really wanna do (like doing anything with the lard tank(s), stuff with feeding tubes and the bigger people, etc)
The manager of the lab-thing sort of treats him like his pet at most times (besides when he’s working), often hand feeding him and petting him n stuff. Even started off honestly wishing he wouldn’t but has kind of warmed up to it in the few months he’s been at the lab-thing.
ik it’s not much but he’s honestly one of my first starbound oc, things and he’s pretty cool ig

1: The race is called the Draconis
2: If you want I could help you out with writing a story form him 
yes draconis that
sorry i’m a bit new to starbound, i don’t even know all the orignal race’s names haha
i dunno if i wanna write an entire story yet though, kind of at least want to make a lil bio for the ceo (who only has a name and appearance that aren’t even final atm)
may be a little late but what is the race used in this story(the taur)?
(This story’s going to be a bit of a slow burn. There will definitely be WG, though, and general fatness.)
Here we have Orf-Peters, a young Protector whose first day on the job was absolutely tanked by the Ruin showing up to destroy the Earth.
Stranded on an alien planet, he found he had to adapt quickly to his new surroundings to survive. Where he used to rely on tact to sway others, here violence was what he needed to survive. And while Protectorate clothes were both comfortable and attractive (in his view) they couldn’t protect him from the monsters of this alien world like a real set of armor. Luckily, Orfey was also an adept hand at sewing.
To his immense relief, Orfey soon found he wasn’t the only one on the planet. He had actually been saved from imminent death by the friendly alien Vinalizj, who was now offering to help repair his ship and restore power to its failed impulse engines.
One mutant poptop later, and Orf-Peters not only had a working ship again, but had gained access to an outpost of friendly people and learned more about the Ruin that had destroyed his homeworld. Armed with the task of studying Floran culture, he made for a nearby forested planet and began the search for a settlement.
Several near-death experiences (and an armor upgrade) later…
Well, at least the locals were friendly, for given definitions of ‘friendly’.
In addition to completing his mission, Orf-Peters was able to recruit his first crewmembers: an Aegi mercenary named Zaen, and a Floran tailor called Adijape. With a little help from the outpost, he was also able to outfit his ship with a state-of-the-art kitchen, which Zaen assured him was necessary to any successful space mission.
He also discovered that the galaxy is full of food.
Like, a lot of food.
His crew certainly wouldn’t be going hungry…

This is probably a stupid question, but how do you guys go about making this stuff? I’d love to make some stories of my own but I’m pretty lost on what to do precisely. I assume most of you are making use of the admin commands, but do any of you have some sort of guide?
So far as the writing part I can handle, but to clarify I mean the game itself. I’m not sure if I have to play up to a certain point, use a creative mode mod or something…
I often use the /admin command, Spawnable Item Pack, and a bunch of different mods in order to get the items I need for characters. What parts specifically do you have questions about?
Mostly stuff for skipping story missions and all, but I think I just need to look closer at the /admin commands. I’m also a little confused on how to make the NPCs appearance, but it’s once again probably under /admin…
One of the mods I use is the NpcSpawner+ mod which gives you complete control of an NPC’s appearance and behavior

hey everyone, im new here and well, i made a new account mainly for this thread, planning to post my first story when i have something written down, also, if youre alright with it, I might even integrate them with some of the previous stores other people made here, of course, thats your choice if you want me to reference a character or story in general in mine, anyways, been taking screenshots of my starbound FU playthrough (with some other mods), bit hard to correlate what i have plan to FU’s beginning quests, but ill probably try forming it after im done with all that
i have been using that mod but something is wrong with it
everytime i go to the species tab it stays there and i have to close and reopen the ui,do you know how to fix this?
i tried looking in the steam page for it but there is nothing about that problem
That’s because of the bugged fatty Novakid race that was removed. If you get the latest version that shouldn’t be an issue
oh, and PS, do you got a discord Warlynx? id like to talk to ya
