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

Your body falls into a catatonic state as your soul leaves it and enters the container you used for the spell's material component. While your soul inhabits the container, you are aware of your surroundings as if you were in the container's space. You can't move or use reactions. The only action you can take is to project your soul up to 100 feet out of the container, either returning to your living body (and ending the spell) or attempting to possess a humanoids body. You can attempt to possess any humanoid within 100 feet of you that you can see (creatures warded by a protection from evil and good or magic circle spell can't be possessed). The target must make a charisma saving throw. On a failure, your soul moves into the target's body, and the target's soul becomes trapped in the container. On a success, the target resists your efforts to possess it, and you can't attempt to possess it again for 24 hours. Once you possess a creature's body, you control it. Your game statistics are replaced by the statistics of the creature, though you retain your alignment and your Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores. You retain the benefit of your own class features. If the target has any class levels, you can't use any of its class features. Meanwhile, the possessed creature's soul can perceive from the container using its own senses, but it can't move or take actions at all. While possessing a body, you can use your action to return from the host body to the container if it is within 100 feet of you, returning the host creature's soul to its body. If the host body dies while you're in it, the creature dies, and you must make a charisma saving throw against your own spellcasting DC. On a success, you return to the container if it is within 100 feet of you. Otherwise, you die. If the container is destroyed or the spell ends, your soul immediately returns to your body. If your body is more than 100 feet away from you or if your body is dead when you attempt to return to it, you die. If another creature's soul is in the container when it is destroyed, the creature's soul returns to its body if the body is alive and within 100 feet. Otherwise, that creature dies. When the spell ends, the container is destroyed.
