My dream is to travel to the heavens. To see the drift of the stars and the hum of the engine. To become a leaf on the wind that is the unyielding Current.

Void Traveler
Of Starships and Void
The ultimate adventure awaits aboard a voidfaring starship: visit other plants and stars, meet new races and people, and above all, survive the unknown dangers ahead. For some, a starship is only a means to an end. For others, it can be the heart, soul, and lifeblood of their existence. The crew met along the way, huddled together in a tight sip, and can become family for life.
To travel through the cosmic void is to embrace the danger of the unknown. Consider why or how one came across the vehicle. A character may be a planet-dweller who dreams of owning a starship and commanding a crew throughout the Cosmos. Another may be a pilot with an assigned fighter in a planetary war. Conversely, the adventurer may be a simple merchant transporting goods to the next star system.
This chapter introduces rules related to starships: wondrous void vehicles capable of flying above the atmosphere. Learn to fight in a vacuum, manage crew, and even create a custom starship.
