Astral Clipper
Astral Clipper
Based on design concepts pioneered by the githyanki, these sleek vessels have become much more common in recent decades thanks to nongithyanki shipyards in Arvandor and in border island cities such as Starhallow and Luethvar.
Great mesh sails on multiple masts catch the magic winds of the Astral Sea to propel clippers faster than most other vessels as long as the crew remains attentive. Most have open decks similar to those on seafaring ships in order to serve as missile and fighting platforms. Clippers built to avoid combat sometimes have enclosed decks fitted with hatches, but such designs are uncommon, because they risk yielding the ship to boarders. Gleaming rods extend out from the hull to provide control and stability. Astral Clipper Gargantuan vehicle HP 350 Space 4 squares by 10 squares Cost 21,000 gp AC 3; Fortitude 20, Reflex 2 Speed fly 14 (hover), overland flight 18 Pilot The pilot must stand at a control wheel, typically at the rear of the astral clipper. Crew In addition to the pilot, an astral clipper requires a crew of four, all of whom use a standard action each round to control the clipper. Reduce the clipper ‘s fly speed by 4 squares for each missing crew member. At fly speed 0, an astral clipper sails out of control. Load Twenty five Medium creatures; thirty tons of cargo. Out of Control An out-of-control astral clipper moves forward at half speed (not including any modifiers for its astral sails). Sails An astral clipper takes a penalty or bonus to its fly speed from -4 to +4 depending on the strength and direction of the wind. Astral Attunement An astral clipper functions only in the Astral Sea. Fragile Propulsion For every 100 damage an astral clipper takes, its speed is reduced by 2 squares. At fly speed 0, the ship comes to a stop.
