==Liúlàng Zhě (The Wanderer): Mayfly Class Survey/Salvage Vessel==
 +
[[File:The Wanderer 02.jpg]]
 +
 +
Note: '''BOLDED''' items below are unlocked and available for crew use.
  
 +
==Distinctions==
 +
'''Mayfly Class''' [d8] ''The Mayfly is a survey and salvage vessel favored by the mining conglomerates before the war. It has since been made obsolete by newer and better models with the stabilization that followed Alliance victory, but to smugglers and other types who want to steer clear of the law, the battered little ships are worth their weight in Platinum. Especially when it comes to getting into or out of tight spaces.
  
[[Firefly:_Leaf_On_The_Wind_-_Main_Page#Character_Files.2FMeta-Currencies|< < < Back to the Top]]
+
[Special: Mayfly Class vessels are equipped with a compact mining laser set on a topside turret with 180 degree range of fire from port to starboard across the bow (cannot fire aft). The laser is considered a Mark 1 mining tool and is legal under Alliance shipping regs].
  
===<u>GMC Assets</u>===
+
* '''Step Back''' - Roll d4 Instead of d8 for 1 PP
Note: Assets with 2 PP invested will be marked with an [E] to denote episode-long assets.
+
 
*
+
* Weaponized Tools - ''Turns out a simple mining laser works on hulls, too, if you give it enough juice.'' Step back Engines for the remainder of the scene to add a scale die to your dice pool for one Action involving the ship's mining laser.
*
+
 
 +
* Asteroid Dodger - ''Like a leaf on the wind . . .'' When maneuvering in tight quarters, step back Systems to step up or double Engines.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
'''Ghost In The Machine''' [d8] ''Your ship ain't no ordinary ship. At some point the ship's computer was outfitted with an artificial intelligence program, giving you a level of flexibility and control, even when you're away from your boat. It's like having an extra crew member always standing watch.''
 +
 
 +
[Special: You can use the ship's AI to remotely secure your ship or perform other Systems based actions (such as scans or communications) as if you were on board without expending plot points].
 +
 
 +
* '''Step Back''' - Roll d4 Instead of d8 for 1 PP
  
[[Firefly:_Leaf_On_The_Wind_-_Main_Page#Character_Files.2FMeta-Currencies|< < < Back to the Top]]
+
* Autopilot - ''Who's flying this thing?' 'Spend 1 PP to pilot your ship remotely even if you are not on board.
  
==Character Generation==
+
* Helping Hand - ''Sometimes two heads are better than one.'' Spend 1 PP to reroll a ship related pool.

During one of the last battles of the Unification War, the crew procured the Liúlàng Zhě (Wanderer) in a desperate bid to escape certain annihilation, appropriating the near obsolete mining vessel from an abandoned salvage yard just ahead of advancing Alliance forces. Old as she was and slated for scrap, the stout little ship proved surprisingly tough and agile, dodging or shrugging off potential hazards as they fled the system.
+
'''Sick Bay''' (fully stocked, partially automated surgical theater)
  
Over the past four years, the battered old Mayfly has undergone a number of interesting modifications and upgrades both inside and out, not all of them entirely legal like, and the mismatched group that fled the Alliance together have made some small name for themselves in the 'Verse as a capable crew that gets jobs done.

While the core game implies a fairly significant amount of player vs player conflict, I prefer not to run games that lean heavily to that assumption. If you wan't to do something that directly acts against another player there are two options.
+
*
* Unilateral Permission: The other player agrees to your action. No rolls are needed. Just RP it out.
+
*
* Limited Permission: The other player doesn't agree that it is an automatic thing, but does agree to let the dice decide.
 
Note: If the players involved do not agree to PVP, it doesn't happen. Move on with something else.
