Spindrift on the Astral Sea
Spelljammers are the general term for ships designed for navigating the Astral Sea. They are powered and navigated through arcane means, and require a knowledgeable crew to operate. With the increased access to portals, the use of Spelljammers have declined in past years as they are slower and vulnerable to attack on their journeys. After the recent war between the Raven Queen and followers of Orcus, the portals that cities such as Sigil were dependent upon have begun to malfunction. These malfunctions range from the portal simply not operating to taking the user to an unknown location without being able to return.
Spelljammer crews have reaped an increased profit as their services are in greater demand than ever, carrying passengers and cargo across the vastness of the Astral Sea and the planes it crosses. These crews need to be ready to not only traverse the dangers of the astral travel itself but able to combat the threats of Githyanki pirates, Illithid raiders, and the innumerable threats that the Astral Sea presents.
