{#
D4 How large is it?
As mentioned before, all ships are relatively small. Think the Millenium Falcon or Serenity.
#}

{%data_block size%}
Smaller than normal (-2 HUL, fast)
Typical size for this type
Larger than normal (+4 HP, +2 HUL, slow)
Much larger than normal (+8 HP, +4 HUL, very slow)
{%end%}

{#
D6 What kind of ship is it?
Note that this is only its intended design, not necessarily what it is currently being used for.
#}

{%data_block type%}
Military ship (+1 Armour/+1 damage), for combat or troop/starfighter transport
Research ship (comes with a laboratory and medbay), for exploration, survey, and analysis
Industrial ship (comes with various tools), for mining, construction, salvaging, etc
Merchant ship (comes witha a huge cargo bay), for transporting goods and resources
Passenger liner ship (comes with many cryopods), for transporting many individuals at once
Personal ship (comes with many staterooms), for transporting a few individuals in luxury
{%end%}

{#
D8 Who owns and operates the ship?
This determines what sorts of jobs it performs, who crews it, and what sort of legal recourse attacking (or helping) it incurs.
#}

{%data_block owner%}
A major interstellar power
Rebels, rogues, and dissidents
A private individual living aboard the ship
Independent workers who own their own ship
A megacorporation
Friendly or neutral aliens
Hostile or enigmatic aliens
Robots, independent or for their owners

{#
D10 What is its main strength?
Most of these are combat related, but can also say something about what it is used for, either beyond its initial design or what specific role within that design.
#}

{%data_block strength%}
Reinforced hull (+3 HUL)
Large engines (+3 ENG)
Overclocked systems (+3 SYS)
Armour plating (+1 Armour)
Targeting computers (+1 damage)
Strong shields (+4 HP)
Exceptional maneuverability
Long range, high accuracy sensors
Difficulty in being detected and scanned
Benefitial attributes of another ship type
{%end%}

{#
D10 What is its main weakness?
As above, but in reverse, saying what it isn't used for. Can also be useful to determine what went wrong on a damaged or derelict ship.
#}

{%data_block weakness%}
Cracked hull (-3 HUL)
Small engines (-3 ENG)
Buggy systems (-3 SYS)
Obvious weak points (HUL damage always causes critical damage)
Undersized weapons (-1 damage)
Weak shields (-4 HP)
Slow turns and lack of acceleration/deceleration
Inaccurate, obvious sensors
Adware constantly broadcasts its position
Lacking typical benefits of its ship type
{%end%}

{#
D12 What is it doing?
Vague, but keeping in mind the previous rolls can help narrow down exactly what it's doing.
#}

{%data_block activity%}
It's a pirate ship, and pursues the party (+1 damage if not a Military ship)
It's a pirate ship, and is pursuing/boarding a ship (+1 damage if not a Military ship)
It's being hunted by, or is hunting, a pirate ship
It's drifting in space, somehow damaged or disabled and in need of aid
It's following the party, purely by coincidence
It's defending something, and threatens the party against approaching it
It's doing whatever it is it was built to do, but is obviously about to fail
It's offering the party a trade, but rarely one as simple as credits for fuel
It's doing whatever it is it was built to do, but in a way dangerous to the party
It's resupplying from a cache of valuable materials, and is clearly vulnerable
It's requesting the party's aid in return for a reward
It's offering the party something its crew has no use of, but they would appreciate
{%end%}

{#
D20 What does it look like?
Again this is mostly for flavour, but again it can also be a good base for coming up with ideas. A corporate ship that's blocky and grey will be run by a very different corporation, ro at least for very different purposes, than one that looks sleek and elegant.
#}

{%data_block appearance%}
Blocky and grey, totally devoid of intentional aesthetic
Sleek and elegant, pure white with black glass
Black and angular, as if a stealth ship
Green and organic-looking – possibly a living ship
Red and curved, like a retrofuturist rocket ship
Like a mechanical cube, sphere, pyramid, or other polyhedron
Spindly and elegant, golden and shimmering with large glass planes
Like a Frankenstein of several other ships welded together
Dark blue, long and with rounded edges and bright yellow windows
Ostentatious and religious, like a cathedral turned into a ship
Bright white plastic with blue and orange extremeties
Like a series of bright green spheres connected by pipes
Insectoid in appearance, with bright, clashing colours
Cartoonish, covered in stars, constantly shifting between several vibrant colours
Narrow and angular, like an upsized starfighter
Round, smooth edges, dull yellow, orange, or brown
Imposing, blocky, and long, red as blood
White, sleek exterior half-conceals a pitch black, biomechanical interior
Like an asteroid, space station, or even space lifeform's corpse turned into a ship
Deep purple, with shiny metallic trimming
