Special Abilities


Summoning Torpedo Launcher: Some velstrac starships are armed with hybrid torpedo launchers that can cause terror and havoc on enemy ships. A summoning torpedo launcher is a heavy tracking weapon with long range, a speed of 12 hexes, and the limited fire 5 special property. Once per starship combat, when a summoning torpedo deals Hull Point damage to an enemy vessel, it can be triggered to call forth a corporeal horror on board that vessel that plays on its crew's fears. This weapon is available only for velstrac starships.

Description


Built from cold, dark metals found exclusively on the Shadow Plane, velstrac Tormentors are mobile bases of operations providing their crews with all the resources necessary for experimentation and torture of any creatures that cross their paths. Any other ship outfitted this way could be mistaken for an emergency vessel, but one look inside the Tormentor's medical bay or life science lab is enough to reveal its intended purpose.
Manacles, chains, and custom restraints line the corridors, while more hang overhead, stowed away for later use. The ship's systems function mechanically, but the interfaces are masochistic and painful to use, often requiring crew to sit in chairs that resemble torture instruments or to deliberately insert their hands into razor-lined gauntlets in order to interact with controls. Heavily armored and bristling with weapons intended to wreak havoc on enemies, the Tormentor makes an impression when it appears; its winged exterior spreads wide, like a barb launched from a titanic weapon, and it trails long, hooked chains that chase after it like tendrils behind a jellyfish
