The races of Kyon discovered space travel and have found a mysterious door in space...


Author's Note: Heavily inspired by Mass Effect, essentially a scenario of DND races advance technology and achieve space travel, meeting an existant galactic society. Peace or war? Your choice. The races of Kyon are preparing to take flight aboard The Wayfarer! A ship specially designed for their maiden voyage beyond the newly discovered Warp Door in their Solar System. No one knows what lies beyond, but you must be ready for anything. IMPORTANT: To start off look at Locations and look at the Setup/Lore. Uncollapse it and you will see Lore and Setup POIs. The lore is to give you background on Kyon and the Galactic Society they meet. The Setups are various scenarios I thought up to get you started. Use @ then the setup you want to get started. Obviously you can do something different if you want. NOTES: - In order to make space combat not boring and work with existing F&F systems, lore-wise every Starship has a "Combat Translator" allowing all party members within a Starship to use their normal combat abilities to participate in a Starship battle. This is one of those, fun gameplay > lore decisions. -All the zones are small due to the galactic scale I was going for and the limitations here. -I found that during travel time (decided to make it take ten days to get from Kyon to the Warp Door) I had to switch it from Adventure Mode to Downtime Mode, otherwise Franz kept just instantly teleporting us everywhere. -Most images of the alien races I had to generate with google gemini.

Description

This spell transforms a creature that you can see within range into a new form. An unwilling creature must make a wisdom saving throw to avoid the effect. A shapechanger automatically succeeds on this saving throw. The transformation lasts for the duration, or until the target drops to 0 hit points or dies. The new form can be any beast whose challenge rating is equal to or less than the target's (or the target's level, if it doesn't have a challenge rating). The target's game statistics, including mental ability scores, are replaced by the statistics of the chosen beast. It retains its alignment and personality. The target assumes the hit points of its new form. When it reverts to its normal form, the creature returns to the number of hit points it had before it transformed. If it reverts as a result of dropping to 0 hit points, any excess damage carries over to its normal form. As long as the excess damage doesn't reduce the creature's normal form to 0 hit points, it isn't knocked unconscious. The creature is limited in the actions it can perform by the nature of its new form, and it can't speak, cast spells, or take any other action that requires hands or speech. The target's gear melds into the new form. The creature can't activate, use, wield, or otherwise benefit from any of its equipment.
