Ghost in the Machine[edit]
Some ships have eyes. Yours has a brain. Your ship’s systems are augmented by an experimental artificial intelligence, and you can control many aspects of the ship like the helm, airlocks and doors by voice command. It listens. Most of the time.

Pronouns: She/Her

- Fly By Voice: You've always got a crew member onboard. Spend 1 PP to fly the ship without a pilot at the helm by voice or radio. Use Leader instead of Operator for rolls while piloting the ship via this method.
- Intrusion Countermeasures: A ship with a brain is faster on the draw against electronic shenanigans than its crew. Spend 1 PP to step up or double Systems when your ship’s computers are being attacked by hackers, viruses, or Trojan horses.

- Hidey Holes: Your ship's infrastructure and exostructure were designed to make things go gone. When a Crewmember is trying to conceal cargo, add the ship’s Hull die to the roll.
- Covert: Your hull materials and configuration make it easy to hide out in the black. When making a Performer or Operator roll to keep the ship from being spotted, the pilot may spend 1 PP to reroll.
