Mutation:
Mutations are another exception to normal rules. ‘Mutants’ are a broad class of people ranging from unfortunate humans born on radiation worlds and sent to colonies on the Rim to crazed ‘Splicers’ seeking genetic perfection through abuse of ‘Plasmids’. Rumours also persist of once human Bioweapons cooked up in Megacorporate labs, Gene Warriors maintained as the private armies of the rich and powerful, and of ‘Abductees’ who have been ‘gifted’ new alien physiology.
To find out if you survived your very DNA being rewritten, make a Body Save:
• Success: Roll one random Minor Mutation and one random Major Mutation.
• Crit. Success: As success, but two Minor Mutations & no new Minimum Stress from the Major.
• Failure: Roll two random Major Mutations.
• Crit. Failure: Your body couldn’t take the stress of the change and you died.

Gain +1 Minimum Stress for every Major Mutation you gain.
Gain +2 Minimum Stress for every Xenomutation you gain.
Choose a Mutation as a ‘Plasmid’ for it’s cost in CR, triple cost for it to be discreet.
Mutations can occur twice, and their effects can stack.
Coping Mechanisms do not reduce stress from Mutations/Plasmids

Xenofauna
Non-sapient Alien life found as a result of space exploration, some adopted or xeno-transplated and used as livestock and pets, game animals, stock for blood sport, or spread by accident causing ecological collapse.

Siriusian Starbison (Xeno Bison Sirius)
The first large scale project of xeno-tranplantation with old Earth stock and the Surian Staurox. Hardy, versatile, a pioneer species and the backbone of the Surrian settler colonial project, the most sought for late terraforming.

Honetyger (Xeno Tigris Mellarius)

'Babel'- Your crew discovered a ships graveyard of hundreds of vessels and wrecks surrounding a sensory anomaly disrupting ship systems and jamming comms, yet something tells you you're not alone... will you grab some salvage and run, or dig deeper?

'The Gold of Jenkins Country' – Your Ship docks at the space elevator on WRZ-3L Neo-Cornwall: a Clone Collective known colloquially as Jenkins Country as 20% of its inhabitants are instances of the Shiphand Jenkins Clone Line. All does not seem well in Jenkins Country, a tension seems present in the air...

'Whats Beef?' - You've picked up a distress signal agricultural freighter Geryon, a drive failure has forced them to prematurely leave hyperspace with 2000 head of animal livestock blissfully sleeping in their cryohold. The StellaBioTechnica execs will pay handsomely to insure this cargo arrives on time... alternatively they surely wouldn’t miss a few cows right?

'Prime Time Holotheatre' – Your crew awake from hypersleep early when the ship is forced to exit hyperspace midway to their intended jump point, you’re well stocked with supplies, life support is still functional, it’s just gonna be a long boring repair job before you can get going. But since you’re gonna be passing time between spacewalks to do repairs, why not make use of the Holoprojector?

Sadistic Sabotage (17th Level)
Learn two more up to 14th level Artificer Magic Item Plans.

Your Sabotaging Charms can now destroy magical items that are Legendary, and when a creature is dealt damage by one of your Sabotaging Charms, double the damage.

Sophisticated Sabotage (13th Level)
Learn two more up to 10th level Artificer Magic Item Plans.

The damage form your charms can now be Acid, Thunder or Cold and you can now set complex triggers for your Charms (such as temperature changes, a spoken phrase or the use of a specific spell or school of magic) on a delay of up to 8 hours.

When a creature or object is reduced to 0 hit points by damage from a sabotaging charm you may choose to deal any remaining damage to another creature or object within 15 feet of them.

Your Sabotaging Charms can destroy magical items of Very Rare or lower quality.

Savage Sabotage (9th Level):
Learn two more up to 6th level Artificer Magic Item Plans.

Damage from your Sabotaging Charms is now considered magical, and on triggering any non-magical objects they are attached to are also destroyed. Your Sabotaging Charms can also destroy magical items of Rare or lower quality.

Savvy Sabotage (Level 3):
As a bonus action, you can do one of the following:

Scrutinize Item: Focus on an item and learn if it is a magic item or some other magical object, whether it requires Attunement, and how many charges it has, if any. If you instead touch the item, you also learn its properties and how to use them, whether any ongoing spells are affecting the item and what they are.

Nullify Item: Touch a magical item leaving behind a tiny Charm to disable its properties. Upon triggering, for one hour (or until the sabotage is discovered and the Charm removed) that item’s magical properties are nullified and if it is attuned to a creature their attunement to that item is broken.

Sabotage Item: Touch an object and leave behind a sabotaging charm to rig it to damage its next user. The damage dealt is equal to your sneak attack die/dice and is your choice of piercing, fire or lightning.

Rogue – Saboteur
Nice weapons/armour you got there! Be a real shame if something happened to em…

Saboteur's Secrets (Level 3):
You learn two up to 2nd Level Artificer Magic Item Plans, gain expertise in two kind of tools and your choice of Arcana or Investigation.

You also learn how to use rudimentary arcane and alchemical knowledge to identify magical objects and attach Sabotaging Charms to disable, disrupt or even destroy them.

You may set a Charm to trigger on a delay of up to an hour or another simple trigger (e.g. the unsheathing of a sword or the opening of a box lid) but otherwise the default triggers are:
-When a creature wearing or carrying the object is next hit with an attack.
-When the object is wielded as a weapon and used to make an attack.

If a creature suspects an item sabotaged it must succeed on an intelligence saving throw equal to 12 Plus your Rogue level to identify the sabotaging charm and another save of the same difficulty to disarm it without triggering any other effects.

A comment on a YouTube video titled "Boat Madness"

@empath69: Tiny nitpick in the subtitles: title "Bo'sun" or "Bosun" from the old term "boatswain" for 'the person in charge of the care, maintenance and use of the ship's boats'. ...unless this is the sailor's proper name: Ordinary Seaman Bolson O'Shea. ;) Otherwise very excellently done! Good choice of stock footage for backgrounds, reasonable premise, nicely unexpected twists on 'what people with cabin fever would do', and even a nice little hint of foreshadowing of the ending, too! <3 P.S. apparently a 'bolson' is a desert valley or depression surrounded by recently uplifted hills or mountains (from the Spanish bolsón or 'large purse'). Sounds like a good name for a purser. :D
