Keystone

A keystone is a key that is magically linked to a navigator’s helm. It locks the helm from use by anyone without a keystone. The keystone cost includes the 3 hour ritual to embed the keystone in the hand of the navigator and the helm. If the stone is removed from the hand, it still has to be attuned to the new helmsman with a ritual.

Mana Stone

A mana stone generates a tiny amount of mana, which can be used to power a plasma helm. The stone can only expend the mana if it is in contact with plasma.  A mana stone weighs 25 lbs.

Navigator’s Helm

The helm is an object, often a chair, which bonds the navigator with the ship and allows the use of mana,votara, and plasma to fold space.

To use a helm, a spellcaster must attune to it. It takes 1 day for a minor helm and 3 days for a major helm for attunement. A helm may have multiple mages attuned to it. 

Plasma Battery

Used to power a ship they are a integral part of a starship. They are detailed more in Space Travel.

Plasma Helm

A plasma helm is a small navigator’s helm which can power a craft up to 1 ton. It combines a plasma battery and a mana stone. The mana stone can hold up to 2 mana, allowing the craft to be piloted for up to one hour. A plasma helm gives a ship SR 2.

Votara 

Votara is the extract of a void whale which allows for space travel and oxygen regeneration. Farmed votara has a shelf life of 100 days, while wild votara lasts 5 years. A navigator must take one dose every time they connect to the ship through the helm. If they leave the helm, fall asleep, get knocked unconscious, or otherwise lose the connection they must take another dose.

Water Purifier

A “water well” is a basin that has a copper pipe attached to it. As contaminated, soiled, or otherwise unpotable water passes through the pipe, it becomes clean and drinkable. The tube must be at least 2 feet long and contain a ventilation system along the top to release the contaminants.
