Known Species 

The Star Trek Universe is expansive with a plethora of races and cultures (and even subcultures) 

available. The given Species are chosen for the amount of exposure Humanity had with them 

between the years 2140 and 2165. 

Now it is easy to believe that all Nausicaans are outlaws, all Orions are pirates and Risans are all preoccupied 

with gratification but truth to be told, you can find all kinds within each of the galactic 

Species. 

That being said, it would be perfectly acceptable to find a mixed crew on a cargo ship or a privateer 

but if the campaign you play is set around an official organization (Earth Starfleet, Vulcan High 

Command, Andorian Imperial Guard, Klingon Imperial Fleet) it would be prudent to keep all the PCs 

the same Species for the sake of a certain level of authenticity. After all, a Nausicaan gunner on a 

Vulcan ship wouldn’t make much sense. 

Some exceptions can be made (ahem, T’pol?) but only after consultation with the Game Master. If 

you’re game is set after 2161 and the birth of the Federation then you are allowed to have a ship with 

any Federation Member or Affiliate Species on it. Each Species description will give you a brief outline 

of the Species, a list of other Species that they have good or bad relations with, the pros and cons of 

the Species in 

terms of game mechanics and what languages they would have the opportunity to learn (Universal 

Translator technology is haphazard at best). 

You can play a character from any of the races listed in this Chapter. The Species descriptions given 

are an explanation of the majority of that Species’ population but if you wish to play you character in a 

different way go right ahead (just check with your Game Master first). Just keep in mind the 

understanding that your character is breaking the societal norms of their Species and that others of 

their kind may react to that.

Human 

Humans are easily the most outwardly, idealistic and expansionist race. Humans have no true 

specialty or extraordinary qualities and are average in both a technological and physical sense. 

Instead they are more idealistic, outgoing and cooperative than other races. 

A founding member of the United Federation of Planets, Humans of Earth became warp-capable in 

2063, which was the same year they experienced first contact with an alien species, the Vulcans. 

Human adaptability and their strong tradition of innovation and cooperation have brought them to the 

forefront of the current interstellar situation. It is for this very reason, however, that Human society is 

constantly changing and evolving. This is seen not only on the isolated colonies and boomer groups, 

but also in the staid and settled core worlds as well. Fashion, speech and especially political views 

are constantly changing. 

For species that are steeped in tradition and genealogical reverence as the basis of their societies, 

the Human fascination with the novel experience and their unending desire to innovate and explore, 

to discover for the sake of discovery, are all difficult concepts to grasp for other Species. 

Physiology: Bilaterally symmetrical bipedal primates, Humans are a warm-blooded species with an 

average lifespan of around 120 years, although some individuals have achieved a much older age. 

Humans are not the strongest of species, but they are resilient. They can survive with one lung or 

kidney (they have two of each normally), and surprisingly they can go days without water and weeks 

without food due to their bodies' ability to conserve water and live off stored fat respectively. Their 

bodies' efficient temperature regulation allows them to survive cold temperatures to a far greater 

degree than other races such as the Tellarites, or high temperatures that would be uncomfortable for 

an Andorian.

Colonies: Luna (Sol IIIa) Vega Colony (Alpha Lyrae II) Mars (Sol IV) Jupiter Station (Sol V) 

Autonomous: Proxima (Alpha Centauri)

• Medium Size

Andorian 

The Andorians are a humanoid species from the moon Andoria, capital world of the Andorian Empire, 

and are one of the founding members of the United Federation 

of Planets. 

Andorians are a militaristic warrior race. This is underscored by the fact their weapons have no stun 

setting. Service in the Andorian Imperial Guard is considered honourable, and military ranks have a 

great influence on social reputation. 

Andorians never fight without reason and deplore dishonesty, but they are capable of duplicity. 

Andorians consider their race to be deeply emotional and passionate, even violent; they 

aren't known for their charity and have few sympathies, but they placed a high value on family and 

loyalty. 

A crucial part of Andorian tradition was the so called ushaan, a code of honor demanding a duel 

to the death in which the combatants fight against each other with a ice miner's tool, the ushaantor. 

An enormous body of rules and regulations existed around this code of honor, summing up to 

12,000 amendments. The Ushaan could be demanded by someone as a means of personal 

vengeance, e.g. to avenge a personal loss. However, there existed a right of substitution, allowing 

combatants to put up a replacement for themselves. Furthermore, each married combatant could 

postpone a duel indefinitely, if there were no children to continue his claim. Additionally, the 

fight might be called off, if one combatant disabled the other in way so he could not continue the 

duel. 

Physiology: Most Andorians have a distinctive blue skin and white or silver-colored hair. 

Andorians have a higher metabolism than Humans. Andorians are very susceptible to high 

temperatures; an Andorian could lose 10% of its body weight in as little as two days in climates 

approaching the boiling point of water. 

Andorians have two antennae on their heads that they use for balance. Andorians have at least 

four anatomical variations regarding the placement of their antennae. Some have antennae 

sprouting from the frontal bone of their skull. Others have antennae that sprout from their parietal 

bone. The loss of an antenna is a humiliating experience for an Andorian. 

Homeworld: Andoria (Founding Member of the Federation 2161) 

Sun: Procyon VII 

Colonies: Weytahn (disputed) 

Languages: Andorian 

Optional: Vulcan, Tellarite, Aenar and Orion 

Andorian Species Traits: 

• Medium Sized 

• Base Speed is 10 meters 

• Species Antagonism: Vulcans, Tellarites, Nausicaan 

• Immune to the effects of extreme cold and low oxygen environments 

• Andorians tend to be very arrogant to those who haven’t earned their trust, giving them a 

–2 to Charisma. The harsh environment of Andoria has also toughened them as a species 

giving all Andorians a +2 to Constitution.

Klingons 

The Klingons are a humanoid warrior species that originates from the planet Qo'nos M-class planet. 

One of the major powers of the galaxy, the Klingons are a proud, tradition-bound people who value 

honor and combat. The aggressive Klingon culture has made them an interstellar military power to be 

respected and feared. 

Klingons believe that they have the instinctive ability to look an opponent in the eye and see the intent 

to kill. Because of their aggressive outlook, the Klingons have generally had poor relations with other 

races after they began to move out into space. Because the worlds of the 

Klingon Empire are resource-poor, the Klingons have developed an intense belief in the need for 

expansion and conquest in order to survive. 

Klingon society is extremely complex. It is based on a feudal system organized around traditional 

Great Houses of noble lineage, to which various parts of the population owe fealty. The Great 

Houses are traditionally represented in the Klingon High Council, which is led by a Chancellor. 

Males traditionally dominate public life in the Empire, assuming the leading roles in politics and 

the military with only rare exceptions. Klingon women are treated as equals except in politics 

and matters of inheritance. They are prohibited by law from serving in the High Council and 

cannot take control of their Houses unless they have the money and no male successors of the 

lineage. Otherwise, it is expected of Klingon women to exhibit the same physical prowess and 

lust for blood and honor as the men. Klingon society functions through a system of family 

reputation and honor. 

Physiology: On average Klingons are larger and physically stronger than Humans, though 

they possess much less tolerance for cold weather. Internally, Klingon anatomy is markedly 

different from that of Humans. There is a great deal more multiple redundancy in their organs, a 

principle they call brak'lul. This allows Klingons to survive severe injuries in battle. They have 

twenty-three ribs, two livers, an eight-chambered heart, three lungs, and even redundant neural 

function and multiple stomachs. Some geneticists believe the extra organs, notably the third lung, 

evolved to give Klingons greater stamina on the battlefield. Klingons live for over 150 years, but 

even into advanced old age are still strong enough for combat. 

Homeworld: Qo’nos 

Sun: Khronos 

Colonies: Praxis, Rura Penthe and Kling 

Languages: Klingon 

Optional: Orion, Nausicaan 

Klingon Species Traits: 

Medium Sized 

Base Speed is 10 meters 

Species Antagonism: All. Klingons disdain all other species. 

Immune to fear effects. 

Klingons are tough and powerful. They receive a +2 to Strength and a +2 to 

Constitution. They are very inhospitable and not scholarly resulting in a –4 to 

Charisma and a –2 to Intelligence.

Aenar 

The Aenar (pronounced EEH-NAR) are a humanoid race native to the Northern Wastes of 

Andoria, and a subspecies of the Andorians. The Aenar of the 22nd century lived in an 

underground compound on Andoria, shielded by a dampening field. The Aenar have no leader, but 

will appoint a de facto leader or speaker if a situation warrants it. Aenar have a strict law 

against reading the minds of other people without prior consent. They have a strictly pacifist 

ideology, and deplore violence. 

The Aenar were long considered a myth in Andorian society. But around 2104, the Andorians 

discovered the Aenar living in the Northern Wastes of Andoria. Since then, they have 

maintained diplomatic contact with the Andorian government. 

Physiology: The Aenar are physiologically very similar to the Andorians, with two antennae sprouting 

from their heads, although the antennae of the Aenar have small indentations in the funnel shaped 

tips. The Aenar are completely blind and have no skin or hair pigment, resulting in a pale white 

appearance (similar to human albinos). The most distinctive trait of the Aenar, however, is their highly 

evolved telepathic abilities. An Aenar is capable of reading minds and of psychically projecting itself to 

other humanoids. They use telepathy to communicate amongst themselves. Given that the Aenar are 

a subspecies of Andorians, therefore actually a member of the same species, they are genetically 

compatible with Andorians. A hybrid Aenar/Andorian individual will have a greenish skin tone. 

Homeworld: Andoria 

Sun: Procyon VII 

Colonies: None 

Languages: Aenar 

Optional: Andorian 

Aenar Species Traits: 

Medium Sized 


Immune to the effects of extreme cold and low oxygen environments 

An Aenar character can use the following abilities at will at a range of 100 : 

1. Detect the surface thoughts of any sentient being 

2. Project a mental image to any sentient being 

3. Speak to any other willing telepath via telepathic means 

Due to their blindness Aenar receive a –4 to Dexterity. Their blindness does not prevent 

them from performing normal activity however. The Aenar have a keenly developed 

ESP that allows them to sense the location of objects (like a mental Sonar). While this 

allows them to interact with the world around them, it also causes them to interact with it 

at a much slower pace than other Species.

Nausicaan 

The Nausicaans are a humanoid species native to the planet Nausicaa. 

While little has been seen that would indicate any pan-Nausicaan governmental or military 

organization, Nausicaan society seems to consist of large piracy clans. Hunting parties of several 

warpcapable starships or raiders work out of asteroid bases, and pirates would be armed with energy 

weapons of various design. 

Most contact with Nausicaans is in the form of isolated run-ins with civilians who would seem to be 

independent operators, though the practice of using asteroids as settlements seems to be 

normal for non-piracy groups as well. 

Nausicaan culture would appear to be firmly rooted in violence. Most Nausicaan games involve 

inflicting pain or injury, including one that involves tossing darts at each other's chest. 

The Nausicaans are infamous thugs, and are a common choice as bodyguards or hired muscle 

Physiology: Nausicaans are large aliens renowned for their lack of subtlety and surly, illtempered 

manner. They are generally tall humanoids surpassing two meters in height, with great 

body strength. Their faces are commonly ashen in color and are distinguished by a prominent 

bone structure with sharp tusks protruding at either side of their mouths. Some Nausicaans also 

have a line of four small horns that run vertically down the forehead. 

Homeworld: Nausicaa Prime 

Sun: Nausicaa 

Colonies: numerous asteroid colonies throughout the sector 

Languages: Nausicaan and Orion

A Nausicaan Starbase also aren’t know for their personalities and receive a –2 to Charisma and a –2 

to Wisdom.

Orions 

The Orions are a humanoid species originating from the planet Orion. Little is known about the 

organization of the Orion government, or if indeed, a central government exists. 

Despite the rich cultural history of Orion and outside of their "official" stance of neutrality, a dark side 

of the 

Orion culture exists in their active trafficking of forced labor through the Orion slave markets. 

The primary entity operating within these confines are known as the Orion Syndicate, which is 

comprised of a conglomeration of traders, pirates and smugglers. 

These individuals are also well known for their many illegal operations outside of the slave trade 

including: extortion, theft, raids, kidnappings and assassinations. 

A secondary entity operating within the Orion realm is 

known as the Orion Free Traders. The Orion Free Traders have a limited established 

relationship with the Vulcans. 

Physiology: Orions are known for their distinctive green skin. Orion males are typically bald 

and, on average, taller and more muscular than an average Human male. Orion females are very 

animalistic in nature, known for their extreme carnal appetites and their innate skill of seduction. 

In Orion society the males are slaves to the females. As a means of deception to other species, 

however, the Orions maintain the facade that the females are the slaves. Selling Orion females on 

the Orion slave market commonly does this. 

Once sold to a male, the Orion slave girls use their unique physiology to their advantage; their 

highly potent pheromones accelerates the metabolisms of males of many species, raising 

adrenaline production to dangerous levels which causes aggression and ultimately a form of 

delusion. Its most significant effect is to make them susceptible to suggestion. Not long after, the 

"owner" males begin taking orders from their "slave" females. 

Homeworld: Orion 

Sun: Pi Orionis 

Colonies: numerous trade enclaves throughout the sector 

Languages: Orion 

Optional: Vulcan, Tellarite, Andorian, Klingon, Nausicaan, Risan and Xyrillian 

Orion Species Traits: 

Medium Sized 


Orions are incredibly personable and appealing to the opposite sex. This gives them an 

inherent +4 to their Charisma score.

Risan 

The Risans are a humanoid race from the planet Risa noted for their hedonistic approach to life. Risa 

is in a binary system and although it is naturally a swampland its extensive weather modification 

system gives the entire planet a tropical climate. 

Combined with the local's easygoing approach to life this has made Risa a very popular holiday 

destination. 

The Risan language is not spoken by many non-Risans, as most visitors do not bother to learn it. 

Risans are extremely close to Humans in appearance, but do have a small mark on their forehead as 

well as a different internal biology, which rendered Human treatment at Risan hospitals difficult in the 

2150s. 

The "Festival of the Moon", or Lohlunat, was a very popular celebration among the Risan people. 

The mysterious sexual practice of jamaharon is considered extremely pleasant -- wanting it is 

indicated with a statue called Horga'hn, which would become a symbol of the culture on the 

planet. 

Physiology: Externally, Risans are physically indistinguishable from Humans in every aspect 

except for the markings they bear on their foreheads. They can even crossbreed with Humans, 

along with other humanoid races like Andorians and Orions. 

Homeworld: Risa 

Sun: Epsilon Ceti 


Languages: Risan plus any other two of player’s choice 

Optional: Any 

Risan Species Traits:

Risans receive two bonus skill 

points at every level

one skill point to speak a 

language at the conversational 

level (which normally requires 

three skill points) 

Risans need only spend one skill point to read/write a language at the proficient level (which 

normally requires three skill points)

Denobulan 

The Denobulans are a humanoid species from the planet Denobula. The Denobulans believed they 

were the only intelligent species in the galaxy until the B'Saari made first contact. 

Denobulans are typically polygamous, where a man typically has three wives, who each have three 

husbands. This creates extremely large extended families; Phlox had 720 familial relationships, 42 

with romantic possibilities. In addition, Denobulan marriages are not exclusive, and married 

Denobulans can be intimate with anyone they choose. The females emit powerful pheromones during 

their mating season. Male Denobulans often become combative during this time, and mating can 

require medical supervision. Denobulans typically prefer to be amongst large groups and find solitude 

uncomfortable. However, Denobulans, at least males, are uncomfortable being touched by persons 

they are not intimate with. Amongst Denobulans, it is considered healthy for a person to hallucinate, 

as it is seen a harmless way to release nervous energy. 

Physiology: Denobulans have prominent facial ridges running down either side of the 

forehead to the cheeks, an enlarged brow ridge under a high receding hairline, a vertical crevice 

in the center of the forehead and a ridged chin. 

They also have ridges on their back, along the spine. Their toenails are dark brown and yellow 

striped, and they grow so rapidly that they must be groomed once a week. Denobulans also have 

very long tongues, and they use tongue scrapers. Denobulan males have a line of hair down the 

middle of their chest, up to their throat. 

Denobulans have a unique ability to enlarge their faces. This is an instinct for when they feel 

threatened. It is likely similar to the defense mechanism of the blowfish, an aquatic life form 

native to Earth. They also have an unusually wide smile for a humanoid. Denobulans normally 

require very little sleep, but they do hibernate for five to six days each year.

Orantakken 

Orantakken are telepathic humanoids from the planet Oran'taku located just outside the Delphic 

Expanse. The Orantakken had no concept of spoken language until they made first contact with other 

species. 

Orantakken telepathy is different from most telepathy. Most races telepathically transmit words and 

sounds, the Orantakken however transmit pure thoughts and images. This is far more efficient but can 

only be practiced by Orantakken. 

The second and even more interesting aspect of the Orantakken’s telepathic ability is their ability to 

recognize each living organism by its’ genetic resonance frequency. That ability combined with their 

natural eidetic memories allows them to experience and study the worlds around them with quite a 

unique perspective. 

The Orantakken appear to be standard humanoids with a textured bony enlargement just over the 

ears. Orantakken technology is limited to rudimentary interstellar space flight via non-warp 

technology equal to Warp One. 

Physiology: Physiologically, Orantakken are humanoid with their only known external difference 

from Humans being a series of horizontal ridges down the back of their neck and along their 

spine. Orantakken traditionally mate for life. When two Orantakken have intimate relations their 

body chemistry becomes interdependent, causing withdrawal symptoms if the two people 

separate. The effect gets stronger with each mating and separation can be fatal.

Species Antagonism: Suliban 

Due to their evolutionary path stressing the need for greater mental prowess 

opposed to physical prowess, Orantakken have a –2 to Strength and a –2 to 

Constitution.

Tandaran 

The Tandaran are a humanoid race that originated on Tandar Prime. 

Tandaran law is unusual in that it is based entirely on "Guilty until proven innocent" and they have a 

notoriously strict penal system. 

In Tandaran, military/political rank influences social standing. Because Tandaran are members of a 

militant civilization, who consider defending the Tandaran Protectorates and their own personal honor 

of foremost importance, military service and its accompanying rank are decisive factors in determining 

social eminence. 

The totalitarian nature of Tandaran society, in which dissent is often a crime and Tandaran security 

officers masquerade as citizens, has led many Tandaran to be extremely paranoid. 

The Tandaran government has established trade routes with various Tellarite merchants. 

Physiology: Externally, Tandaran bear a striking resemblance to Risans in every aspect except 

for the markings they bear on their foreheads. Where the Risan mark is generally 

centered on the forehead the Tandaran mark is right above the bridge of the nose. 

Tandaran can crossbreed with other Humanoids but their xenophobic paranoia 

makes this extremely taboo.

Kreetassan 

The Kreetassan were a warp capable humanoid civilization native to the planet Kreetassia in the 

Alpha Quadrant. When a ship is in orbit of Kreetassa, it is, as a courtesy, expected to align its 

chronometers with that of the Kreetassan Capital City. 

The Kreetassan language is very complex by Human standards. The words for eat and mate are very 

similar. They consider eating in public a taboo. It is something to be performed privately in the same 

manner as mating. Kreetassan are often offended when they see other species eating their food in 

public. Individuals who have regular contact with other species grow accustomed to the sight but 

never participate in what they consider to be a vulgar display. 

On the Kreetassan homeworld in front of the Hall of Diplomacy stands a row of Alvera trees that are 

over 300 years old, which are considered cultural treasures by the Kreetassan. Defacing them in 

anyway is a major offence to their people, however, if it is done accidentally, there is a special 

apologizing ceremony that involves cutting the tree into many pieces. 

Kreetassan are famous for manufacturing plasma injectors, and conduct brisk trade throughout 

the sector for them and other starship components. 

Physiology: Kreetassan are a humanoid race that has an elaborate facial structure. They have 

heavily ridged faces with a row of purple-tinged rectangular creases along the midline of the 

forehead (nose to hairline), covering one-third its width. They wear their hair long and braided 

and were dressed in long, brown, embellished gowns.

Tellarites 

Tellarites are a warp capable race from the class M planet Tellar Prime, located not far from the 

Sol system. In 2161, they become one of the founding races of the United Federation of 

Planets. 

Tellarites are known to be an impatient people. They were also known for their stubborn pride. 

They have a propensity toward strong emotion. However, they enjoy a good argument, which is even 

considered a sport on Tellar. Tellarites often begin an interaction with a series of complaints; this is 

how they start arguments with someone they have recently met. If they have nothing to complain 

about they will simply insult the person. 

Because of their ability to argue, Tellarites make excellent politicians. 

Physiology: Tellarites are a sturdy humanoid species with distinguished snouts. They wear beards and 

their hands are sometimes hoof-like in appearance. 

Tellarites consider canine to be something of a delicacy. They find human room temperature to be 

cold, indicative of a higher body temperature. Tellarites cannot tolerate cold temperatures much more 

so than other species. They consider the freezing temperature of water to be an extreme weather 

condition.

Vulcan 

Vulcans are a humanoid civilization instrumentally responsible for the founding of the United 

Federation of Planets. They are widely known for their logical minds and stoic natures. The 

Vulcan homeworld is the planet Vulcan. 

Culturally one of the most fascinating species in the Beta Quadrant, the Vulcans were once an 

extremely violent and emotional people (even by Earth standards) who waged almost constant 

warfare on one another. They believed in a variety of gods, such as war, peace and death. As their 

level of technology improved, the Vulcans eventually reached a point where their violent nature 

threatened species extinction. 

In an effort to avoid this fate, a Vulcan named Surak developed a new philosophy thereby igniting the 

Time of Awakening. Surak maintained that the root cause of all the problems on Vulcan lay in the 

uncontrolled outpouring of the people's emotions. His followers swore to live their lives by an 

ethical system devised by Surak and based purely on logical principles. All expression of 

emotions, negative or positive, was completely forbidden. 

Although this new philosophy spread rapidly across Vulcan, a minority, many of who were 

known as "those who march beneath the Raptor's wings", rejected Surak's ideals. A destructive 

war began including the use of atomic bombs and among the victims was Surak himself. 

Eventually, however, those who opposed logic left Vulcan and founded colonies elsewhere - most 

notably on the planet Romulus, where they founded what eventually became the Romulan Star 

Empire. 

Physiology: Genetically, Vulcans and Humans are similar enough that they can produce 

offspring without any problems. Externally, Vulcans are generally similar to Humans, the chief 

exceptions being the Vulcans' notably arched and upswept eyebrows and distinguished external 

ear structure, the top of which tapers into a into a clearly defined point. Most Vulcans have pale 

skin with a very subtle greenish tinge, and straight, glossy dark brown or more commonly black 

hair. Some Vulcans have brown skin, tightly coiled black hair, and physiognomic features similar 

to those found in Humans of African decent. In contrast to their external similarities, Vulcan 

internal anatomy differs radically from that of humans. For instance, their heart is where a 

Human's liver would normally be, and beats several hundred times per minute. 

Having evolved on a planet which is mostly desert, Vulcans have developed ways of surviving in 

desert conditions. For example, they can survive for several days without water and have inner 

eyelids that protect their eyes. Vulcans also have superior metabolism to humans. Caffeine and 

sapotoxins have little effect on Vulcans. They are also capable of surviving for long durations 

without food or sleep. Under stress, Vulcans can do without sleep for weeks. Vulcans are on 

average three times physically stronger than humans and are noticeably more agile.

Mind Meld 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Vulcan_mind_meld 

The Vulcan mind meld was a telepathic link between two individuals, allowing for the exchange of 

thoughts, thus in essence allowing the participants to become one mind. 

It was a psionic technique for "synaptic pattern displacement". Normally it was employed only by 

Vulcans. 

It was a deeply personal thing, part of the private life, and generally not used on aliens, although 

cases were known where the mind meld was initiated between a Vulcan and a non-Vulcan. 

Those in a meld shared consciousness in a kind of gestalt. 

The following DCs apply.

Critical Failures 

A critical failure has a 10% chance of inflicting 'Pa'nar Syndrome' on the recipient if they are Vulcan. 

(If the melder was 'untrained' (no ranks in Mind Meld) then the chance is 50%)

Results of the Meld 

Once melded each party has access to the memories and emotions of the other (unless the melder is 

shielding themselves). 

The melder may attempt to implant a suggestion into the target. This acts the same way as the Mystic 

'suggestion' technique. Most Vulcan's consider this very unethical. 

The melder may attempt to repair or restore parts of the targets mind (i.e. cure amnesia) by making 

another roll on the target DC used to make the meld. The same applies for removing memories or 

making other alterations. 

After the Meld 

Both parties make a DC 10 Fort check. Failure means they are fatigued. 

Both parties make a DC 10 Will save. Failure means you suffer a 'loss of identity' for a period. -2 CHA 

and -2 to all Knowledge skills. 

The drug Lexorin (http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Lexorin) will counteract this. 

Further notes: 

Note: Some species are immune to Mind Melds e.g. Cardassians. 

Note: Some species or alien creatures are dangerous to meld with and will result in unconscious or 

worse for the melder. 

Note: Most Vulcan's are very opposed to performing Mind Melds on unwilling or unconscious beings. 

Note: Transferring the soul to and from beings and vessels is a very rarely undertaken type of meld 

usually only done by priests. 

Note: Certain alien memory virus (http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Memory_virus) and can be 

transmitted between individuals.

Suliban 

Suliban are no more evolved than Humans, and normally possess three bronchial tubes. Vulcan 

evaluation concluded they were non-threatening. The Suliban are a nomadic humanoid species 

from Sector 3641 whose homeworld became uninhabitable in the 1850s. 

The Suliban Cabal is an interstellar terrorist organization composed of Suliban that place great 

emphasis on genetic modification. Common modifications to members of the Cabal included the 

addition of two bronchial tubes, altering the alveoli clusters to process multiple atmospheres, the 

installation of subcutaneous pigment sacs, the telepathic ability to sense deception and biomimetic 

clothing. The Cabal's military forces include ships such as the Cell Ship and the Stealth Cruiser, as 

well as Helix installations. 

Not all Suliban are members of the Cabal; many regard the actions of the more violent members 

of their species with disgust. Even so they themselves face considerable enmity from other 

species, and some species such as the Tandaran keep all Suliban captive whether they are active 

members of the Cabal or not. 

In 2144, the Cabal began attacking the Tandaran after the Tandaran started putting non-Cabal 

Suliban in determent camps. The war lasted until the 2150s. In 2151, the Cabal began staging 

attacks within the Klingon Empire, making it appear as if one faction was attacking another, 

leading to a civil war. 

Suliban that leave the Cabal are hunted down, captured and brought to the nearest Helix complex 

to be executed on public display. If the ex-Cabalist is killed in the process of the hunt then only 

the head is returned to the Helix Complex where it is put on public display. 

Physiology: Non-genetically altered Suliban are average bipedal humanoids. They tend to be 

approximately 1.7 meters in height and have mottled green/yellow skin. Suliban live for over 

125 years, but even into advanced old age are still agile and alert. Non-Cabal Suliban are 

naturally amicable.

Axanar 

In 2151, the Earth ship Enterprise NX-01 made first contact with the Axanar under unfortunate 

circumstances. 

An Axanar vessel was found adrift in space, with its crew hooked up to draining tubes. The Axanar 

were being harvested for their triglobulin. The Axanar are an androgynous humanoid species with 

an average life span of 400 years, native to the planet Axanar. 

The Axanar language is spoken by the Axanar species. 

Like the languages of many humanoid species, the language contains consonant and vowel sounds 

like those found in Human languages. 

The Axanar homeworld is highly fertile in reference to food crops and this allows the Axanar to 

conduct a decent amount of trade with non-planetary based species such as the Nausicaans, 

Orions and Suliban Cabalists. 

Physiology: The Axanar body produces triglobulin from its zymuth gland. This substance has 

medical and aphrodisiacal properties, and is used by a number of different species for those 

purposes. Some even forcefully 'harvest' Axanar for their triglobulin. 

The Axanar apparently prefer a nitrogen-methane atmosphere but can breath a 

nitrogen-oxygen atmosphere.

Xindi 

The Xindi are an alliance of species that evolved on the same planet in the Delphic Expanse, 

known as Xindus, whose infamous attack on Earth and attempts to eradicate Humans in the early 

2150s change the course of history and initiate the series of events that help establish United 

Earth as a major interstellar power. 

Six different intelligent species developed on Xindus; one of them, the Xindi-Avians, is believed 

extinct. The surviving species are united under the governance of the Xindi Council, which 

contains two representatives from each species. 

The different Xindi species are extremely similar in their functionally important DNA, sharing 

over 99.5% despite the apparent physical differences. All the Xindi species share distinctive 

ridges on their cheekbones and foreheads. 

Xindi-Aquatics 

The Xindi Aquatics are a non-humanoid race that has evolved to living underwater. They are one of 

the six original species of Xindi, with whom they share a common genetic ancestry. 

They respond better to visual stimuli and are extremely suspicious of the spoken word. They admire 

boldness and confidence and treat hushed tones with suspicion. 

Xindi-Aquatic communication is highly complex and, since the Aquatics are underwater beings, they 

do not use their mouths. When using the past tense, they switch to SONAR. 

Physiology: The Aquatic females are larger and have rougher skin than the males who are more slim 

and have smoother skin. Females have a more humanoid looking face, where as male faces are 

rounder. 

They have slit-like irises in their eyes and are capable of seeing far better underwater than 

humanoids. Aquatics have three fingers on each forelimb, ending in short fingernail-like claws, 

with webbing in between for easier swimming. Their skin is a greenish shade and has blotches of 

olive. Like all Xindi, they have a fold at the top of their cheekbone. They have tails for maneuverability 

and their hind limbs are fins.

Xindi-Arboreal 

Xindi-Arboreal are among the most peaceful of the six original Xindi species. Xindi-Arboreal are afraid 

of the water. They are considered to be lethargic by the other Xindi species. They are also extremely 

calm, even when taken hostage. 

Physiology: In appearance, Xindi-Arboreal are covered with hair, have long sharp fingernails, dark 

eyes, and a ridge running from their noses to the back of their heads. 

This species probably evolved from some sort of arboreal primate. 

Xindi-Insectoid 

The Insectoid language is a clicking dialogue that is the most unusual and complex of all Xindi. In fact, 

there are 67 dialects of the Insectoid language. Insectoid have names that grow longer and more 

difficult to pronounce as they grow older. 

Xindi-Insectoid interpret raised voices as a sign of hostility. They are quick to make decisions and are 

often in alliance with the Reptilians. Both species trade their technology between each other and 

usually agree on all decisions. 

Physiology: The Insectoid, like all Xindi species, have distinctive ridges on their cheekbones. 

They are, as their name suggests, insect-like in appearance. They are genderless and reproduce 

asexually. They protect their young by making a hatchery brig attached to their ships and shield it 

if trouble arises. Their average life expectancy is only approximately twelve years.

Xindi-Primate 

Xindi-Primates are among the most peaceful of the five Xindi races. 

The Primates, more than any other Xindi species, resemble Humans. They have, like all Xindi, 

distinctive ridges on their cheekbones. They also have larger foreheads. Like Humans, the Primates 

have distinct white and black racial differences. They have no eyebrows. 

Other Xindi see the Primates as honest and trustworthy. 

However, they are not seen as being very resilient. They are also the most intellectual species of 

Xindi and therefore one of their own was assigned to develop the weapon to destroy Earth. 

Xindi-Reptilian 

Reptilians are perceived as being untrustworthy and impatient by the other Xindi species. A common 

Reptilian saying is "Patience is for the dead." It is said that dealing with Reptilians is like bargaining 

with the sun; you make no progress, and you come away burned. Nevertheless the Reptilians are the 

first choice for when force is needed. 

With their easily provoked and opinionated nature, Xindi-Insectoid often side with the Reptilians on 

certain issues. 

They sometimes even share ships with each other. 

The Reptilians live out a militaristic lifestyle and hope to ultimately rule over all the other species of 

Xindi. Reptilian soldiers are surgically implanted with a "suicide gland" that unleashes a neurotoxin 

when they are captured. The Reptilians also use thermal chambers on board their ships due to their 

endothermic circulatory systems. Reptilians prefer to be on or near the ground as opposed to up in 

the air.

Artificial Intelligence - 

Android 

Artificial Intelligence comes in many shapes and forms, but in terms of beings that are playable as 

characters they fall into two main categories, android and avatar. 

An android is self-contained, it does not need to be in contact with an AI core. 

A good example of an Android is Data : http://en.memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Data 

See Rules applying to both Android/AI below for more on Androids.

Artificial Intelligence - 

Self-Aware 

Hologram /Avatar 

Artificial Intelligence comes in many shapes and forms, but in terms of beings that are playable as 

characters they fall into two main categories, android and avatar. 

An avatar can be of three sub-types, and can be changed at any time if the technology is available. 

The three types are: 

1. Physical - i.e. a robotic body 

2. Soft Light - i.e. a hologram which does not have the ability to manipulate its environment. 

3. Hard Light - i.e. a hologram which does have the ability to manipulate its environment. 

An artificial intelligence of this type's physical being is in an AI core, housed somewhere or part of the 

main computer of a star ship (e.g. The EMH on Voyager). Its avatar is merely a projection of itself. 

A good example of an AI/Avatar is The Doctor: http://en.memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/The_Doctor 

CORE: The AI core needs to be housed in a place with a suitable power supply and must be regularly 

maintained by itself or by engineers or suffer corruption (see below). 

Functional distance of the AI’s Avatar increases with level. (Level 1 = 100m, 2 = 1km, 3 = 100km, 4 = 

1 AU, 5 = 10 AU, 6 = 1 LY, 7 = 10 LY, 8 = 40 LY) 

An Avatar of an AI core may not function more than 40 LY distant from the core. This is the limit of 

subspace communication and can only be increased with booster stations. 

Using, loosing and replacing an Avatar: 

Soft Light Avatars. 

Soft Light Avatars are merely projections and cost nothing to replace. Within 100 metres of the AI core 

they can move freely between walls and such like. Greater than 100m from the core and they rely on 

sensory feedback from the Avatar and must move as a normal being moves. They cannot be hurt by 

any normal physical means but can be destroyed by EMP devices and subspace blocking. They 

cannot manipulate their environment. 

To project another SLA takes the AI core takes 1 round. 

If it possesses the technology to do so a SLA may change into a Hard Light Avatar in 1 round. 

Hard Light Avatars. 

Hard Light Avatars function as Soft Light Avatars except they can (if they chose to do so) manipulate 

their environment. They are semi-autonomous and can suffer 1 hour per level of loss of contact with 

the main AI core. If they do not regain contact with the core then they are lost and the AI core loses 

500xp. 

To project another HLA takes the AI core takes 25 minutes minus level. 

A Hard Light Avatar may revert back to a Soft Light Avatar in 1 round.

Physical Avatars 

Physical Avatars function more like Androids. They can function quite happily away from the AI core 

indefinitely, but if they are lost before regaining contact all XP gained during that period is lost plus 

1000xp. If they are maintaining contact with the core and are destroyed the core loses only the 

1000xp. 

A new PA can take weeks to rebuild depending on the services available. If a replacement PA already 

exists then it takes the AI core 24 hours minus level to get it up and running. 

Energy Shields: All Avatars may have problems when passing through energy shields. They may 

function normally if the shield is primitive enough, but may suffer corruption, XP loss and potential 

total shut down of the avatar. 

Controlled shutdown. An AI can shutdown a soft light avatar in 1 round. A Hard Light Avatar may be 

shutdown (and this avoid XP loss from 'death') in 25 minutes minus level. A Physical Avatar takes 60 

minutes minus level. It takes the same amount of time to reactive an avatar.

Rules applying to both Android/AI: 

Homeworld: Any with the suitable technology level 

Languages: Android/AI start with a selection of local languages. They can learn additional languages 

very quickly via programming. 

Andriod Traits: 


Medium sized. Heavier than most humanoids though at approx 100kg (Androids and PAs) 

Skills and Feats are dealt with slightly differently and are considered to be ’Upgrades’. Skills are as 

normal except skill points can be moved around if the Android takes a 24 hour rest period. Feats are 

as normal but can be retrained during a 24 hour rest period. There are special feats that are only 

available to Androids (see below) 

- EXP – Android/AI gain XP as normal, but may not gain IP points. 

- Android/AI may gain extra INT based skills by uploading them. No more than 3 additional 

Ranks in any given skill. The more skills gained in this way the greater the risk of 

corruption. Not all skills can be learned in this way (see list below). 

- Android/AI may add +1 to all Knowledge skills per rank in Use Computer 

- Android/AI are immune to disease, poison, radiation, mind control and intoxication 

- Android/AI do not require sleep 

- Android/AI are susceptible to computer corruption and computer viruses 

- Android/AI do not regain HP by healing, but by Repair checks 

- +4 INT, -4 WIS, +2 STR, +2 DEX, -4 CHA 

- Android/AI must be regularly maintained or suffer CON damage 

- Androids do not become fatigued or exhausted 

- Most, but not all Android/AI have Ethical Subroutines (http://en.memoryalpha.wikia.com/wiki/Ethical_subroutine). 

This is left up to the Player. If they are disabled 

then the Android/AI will function differently, but again this is a Role Play aspect left up to 

the player. 

Level Adjustment: +2 

Skills that may be learned via uploading: Computer Use, Replicator Use, First Aid, Technical 

Authoring / Report Writing, All Knowledge Skills, All Profession Skills, All Language skills, Use 

Tricorder, Dock, Pilot, Plot Course, Navigate, Repair, Transporter Use, Write Program, Treat Injury, 

Use Explosive, Survival, Ship Based Weapons 

Health, Repair and Death 

Physical Avatars/Androids gain HP from their class just as other races do. Androids and Physical 

Avatars take damage from combat as other races do unless otherwise noted. 

Their bones may be made of metal but their delicate components mean that they take damage just as 

much as other races although they can optionally feel no pain. They may have their internals 

armoured though (see feats). 

Heaing a PA/A is done by using either the Craft(Robotics) or Repair skills in the same way a medic 

uses the Treat Injury skill. (see Treat Injury). Repair is a general skill though and such there is a -4 

modifier when using it. 

New Physical Avatar/Android bodies can be created with the right tools and parts. This should be 

treated as a pet project though as it is no easy task and could easily take months. Other 

augmentations to the body can be treated as pet projects.

Android/AI Feats: 

Emotion Chip: (+2 CHA), (Android only) 

Starship Interface: Gain control of all ship systems, giving a +2 to all skill rolls related to control of 

the star ship and its systems. 

Duplicate/Backup: An Android or AI may make a copy of themselves to a suitable Core or Body. 

(If an AI does this each day then XP loss on 'death' is halved) 

Personality Program - The AI/Android may take on the personality of anyone they have a suitable 

amount of information about (And in effect exchange INT, WIS and CHA stat points). This process 

takes 60 minutes minus level. 

Holographic Family: (AI only) Provides +2 to Sense Motive, +2 to Diplomacy 

Security Measures: All attempts to hack or interfere with the AI or Android (such as disabling Ethical 

Subroutines) are now twice as hard. 

Holographic Matrix Alteration: The AI Soft/Hard Light Avatar may change shape to be any other 

humanoid being. 

Emergency Class Alteration: the AI / Android may at will change one class type to that of another 

class type. They must meet all requirements of the class they are changing to. This feat may be taken 

multiple times (for different classes). (For instance when the Doctor changed from the EMH 

(Emergency Medical Hologram) to the ECH (Emergency Command Hologram). Base Attack, Fort, 

Ref, Will, Special Feats and Defence all change to that of the new Class. Class Skills are moved to 

that of the new Class. 

+1 corruption each time Class is Altered. 

Android to AI Conversion: With this feat an Android may fully download and integrate itself into an 

empty and suitable AI core. The Android may then function as an AI's Physical Avatar. (This feat may 

also be gained via a pet project, number of days required to be determined by the GM). 

AI to Android Conversion: With this feat an AI may leave its core entirely and function fully within its 

existing Physical Avatar. The AI core may be kept as a backup facility. (This feat may also be gained 

via a pet project, number of days required to be determined by the GM). 

Additional Projections: An AI may operate another Soft or Hard Light projection if the technology 

exists to allow it to do so. This feat may be taken multiple times. 

Armoured Skeleton: the Physical AI / Android skeleton is toughened up. +2 to soak. (This feat may 

also be gained via a pet project, number of days required to be determined by the GM).

Corruption and Complexity 

Computer systems, despite every safe guard, become in more danger of failure the more complicated 

they become. Also, if not under a regular maintenance regime then corruption may also occur. 

Complexity points are gained as follows: 

+1 point per level 

+1 point per feat 

+1 point per 10 skill ranks 

+1 point per 5 skill ranks gained form uploading 

Corruption points are gained as follows: 

+1 point per week not given any maintenance. 

+1 point per HP damage taken 

Whenever the GM deems it appropriate (such as well taking heavy damage from phaser fire or 

carrying out a day’s worth of highly complicated tasks) a corruption check should be made. Roll a 

d100 aiming to get more than the complexity level + corruption level. Normal day to day activity would 

not trigger a corruption check. 

A failure means that a roll is made on the table below: 

01-50 No immediate effect, but general degradation of systems. +1 to corruption 

51-60 -1 temporary modifier to a random INT based skill until repaired 

61-70 -1 temporary modifier to a random Stat until repaired 

71-80 Temporary confusion - stunned for d4 rounds 

81-90 Temporary slowing of systems - 2 to all rolls until repaired 

91-99 -50xp as memories are lost 

00 System crash. In effect unconscious until repaired 

Removing Corruption 

The persons reversing the corruption of the AI/Android must have at least 3 ranks in Repair, 3 ranks in 

Write Program and at least 1 rank in Knowledge(Robotics), otherwise they will do more harm than 

good. 

DC 20+(AIs level) Repair check to fix. Takes 24-Repair skill hours. This removes Repair skill level + 

Write Program + Knowledge(Robotics) points of corruption. 

An android or AI may maintain itself of course, but not as effectively as a well-trained outsider. When 

self-maintaining all DC checks are DC 25+(AIs level) and Corruption will never go below 5 (unless its 

below 5 already). 

A critical failure (fail on a roll of 1) adds d6 points of Corruption.

Other Species 

There are several other species that are space faring and active in the Sector during the 2140s – 

2160s. Not much is known of all of them but here is an overview of some of the more interesting ones. 

Kantare 

Kantare are an Alpha Quadrant humanoid species from the planet Kantare. They have scale-like 

violet colored markings on the sides of their head from the hairline to the temples, and at the base 

of the skull. The Kantare have a colony on the planet Kotare Barath as of 2129. They developed 

sophisticated holographic technology some time before this. 

Enolians 

The Enolians are a humanoid species. By the mid-22nd century, they ran the Canamar prison. 

They are a significant interstellar power, operating hundred of starships and several busy trading 

outposts. Their judicial system is not known for its fairness. 

Antarans 

The Antarans are humanoid species with a lifespan of at least 60 years upon reaching adulthood. 

Antarans have been at war with the Denobulans several times, the last conflict of which took 

place in the 19th century. However Antarans continued to strongly dislike Denobulans until at 

least the 2150s, even though encounters between the two species were extremely rare. This 

behavior is due to widespread prejudices (on both sides). The Antarans take it further than the 

Denobulans do as every Antaran is taught from childhood that all Denobulans are enemies, to be 

feared and reviled.

Coridians (Coridanites) 

Coridan is a M-class planet in the Coridan system, homeworld of the Coridians. In 2151, it had a 

population of over 3 billion. It is rich in valuable resources, most significantly dilithium. In the 

2150s, Coridan is known for its extensive shipyards and its advanced warp-capable vessels. 

However, the planet is also embroiled in a conflict between rebel forces, supported by the 

Andorians, and the government, backed by the Vulcans. The Vulcan agenda was to keep the 

planet's existing government stable, which in turn assured its dilithium, exports to Vulcan. 

Coridan was one of the planets in the initial Coalition of Planets. 

Xyrillian 

The Xyrillian are a peaceful, warp-capable race of humanoids. Xyrillian have an unusual 

physiology. They do not have a metabolism based on water. Their atmosphere is hallucinogenic 

to most species, and as a result most other humanoids need to be weaned onto and off their 

atmosphere to avoid undesired effects. Xyrillian are also herbivores. When traveling, they grow 

vegetation on the walls of their ships. Xyrillian males usually carry infants to term in a pouch on 

the upper chest. Impregnation can occur with only minor physical contact. Humans and Xyrillian 

are genetically compatible.

Romulans 

An Enigmatic race whose homeworld is somewhere in the Beta Quadrant. While no one has ever 

actually seen a Romulan face to face (yet) many have fallen prey to Romulan Starships. If a 

Romulan Starship Captain feels that they cannot win a battle they will scuttle their ship so as to 

not allow another species access to their genetic code and their technology. Romulans are 

constantly attempting to create distrust and conflict between the other species of the sector. 

Rumor has it that they have an outpost in the remote system called Algeron. 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Romulan 

Cardassians 

The Cardassians were a humanoid species from the Alpha Quadrant. They were native to 

the planet Cardassia Prime, capital world of the Cardassian Union. Known throughout the 

Alpha Quadrant for their ruthlessness, the Cardassians became one of the greatest enemies 

of the United Federation of Planets and Klingon Empire when they joined the Dominion in 

2373. Their xenophobic attitude towards other species was well established throughout the 

quadrant after the Setlik III massacre during the Cardassian War, as well as when their 

atrocities during the Occupation of Bajor were revealed after their withdrawal in 2369. 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Cardassian

http://startrekd20.wikia.com/wiki/Playable_Species

Delta Quadrant Species 

Ocampa 

The Ocampa or Ocampans were a humanoid species who lived on the planet Ocampa in the Delta 

Quadrant. Their early history was shrouded in mystery but their own legends told of a time when they 

were capable of great mental feats. 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Ocampa 

Talaxian 

Talaxians were a warp-capable, technologically-advanced species native to the planet Talax in the 

Delta Quadrant. 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Talaxian

Kazon 

The Kazon were an aggressive warrior species from the Delta Quadrant, first encountered 

by the Federation starship USS Voyager in 2371. As of 2372, they were divided into eighteen different 

sects. 

Each sect has possession of different natural resources over which the sects fight each other. 

The Kazon were known to the Borg as species 329, but were deemed unworthy of assimilation. 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Kazon 

Vidiians 

The Vidiians were a species found in the Delta Quadrant. For two millennia the entire race 

suffered from a disease called the Phage that ate away at their DNA and organs. The Vidiian 

government is called the Vidiian Sodality. 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Vidiian

Markov-Kalto 

Makull's species were a pre-warp humanoid species who populated a class M planet that USS 

Voyager encountered in 2371. They possibly had a monotheistic faith. 

The species had no satellite systems or spacecraft. 

During the 2370s, Pe'Nar Makull was the leader of a protest group who were against the use of 

polaric ion energy, believing that it was unstable and a threat to their planet. 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Makull%27s_homeworld

Banean 

http://en.memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Banean 

The Baneans were an avian humanoid species native to Banea in the Delta Quadrant. As of 2371, 

they were at war with the Numiri, with whom they originally shared a homeworld. 

A generally pleasant people, they had a strict legal system. For example, murderers were forced to 

relive their victim's last moments periodically, by means of inserting the memory engrams of the victim 

into their brain. The medical technology that made this possible was very advanced by Federation 

standards. Prior to this method, lethal injection was the means of punishment for murder. 

There were several Numiri spies among the Banean people. In 2371, one of these spies framed Tom 

Paris of the USS Voyager for the murder of the Banean weapons expert Tolen Ren, after a dalliance 

with his wife Lidell Ren. 

The Banean heart was located through the intercostal space between their eighth and ninth right ribs. 

They had distinctive forehead ridges similar to the combs of some species of Earth birds, and featherlike 

structures around their faces and on their brows.

Numiri 

http://en.memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Numiri 

The Numiri were a spacefaring humanoid race found in the Delta Quadrant. In the 2370s, they were 

engaged in a war with the Banean species, with whom they once shared a homeworld. A paranoid 

and aggressive species, they would challenge any intruder who entered into the war zone. They make 

use of such advanced technology as regenerative shielding, their weapons were also equivalent of 

that of a Federation Intrepid-class vessel. Their vessels are small but advanced enough to stand up to 

an assault by a Starfleet vessel; however, their sensor technology cannot automatically detect the 

presence of a Starfleet shuttlecraft. 

In 2371, Numiri agents attempted to frame USS Voyager crew member Tom Paris for their 

assassination of Banean weapons designer Tolen Ren. As by Banean law, Paris was forced to 

experience the memories of the murder every fourteen hours. The Banean doctor who performed the 

procedure was the real murderer and a Numiri agent, who hid the data on Ren's weapons research in 

the memory engrams. If Paris suspected anything, he would have believed that the symbols were part 

of the procedure. Twice the Numiri assaulted Voyager to capture Paris, only to fail each time. Tuvok 

was able to divulge the truth behind the murders and the Numiri attacks. Those complicit in the 

murder were arrested and the memories removed from Paris, leaving the Numiri with nothing.

Delta Quadrant Species (NON-CANNON) 

Treebadians 

Treebad-3 is a M-class water planet. It has many island chains where the dominant species, the 

Treebadians live in relative harmony. 

They are a peaceful species of humanoids descendant from octopus like creatures. They are 

advanced to about the stage of mid-21st century earth. The live primarily off fish and seaweed but 

land bases food stuffs are also grown. 

Treebadians look like humans except for dappled skin, longer noses and eyes that are both larger and 

more wide apart than humans. 

However, getting about will be less of a problem as Treebadians do not recognise each other by facial 

features but by smell. Also, several parts of society also go about masked the main three being : 

The Do-Sho Monks - Wear baskets with eye-slits on their heads 

Vatron Skiff Gangs - Landless gangs that tend to wear shark like masks and are more violent than 

normal Treebadians. They style themselves after ancient shark gangs of 

more primitive times 

The Soft Shelled - All Treebadians wear helmets when they go outside due to having soft skulls. It is 

like a human putting on shoes to go outside. Not doing so would get you 

noticed. 'The Soft Shelled' take this one step further and wear full visored 

helmets. They are considered 'Hypochondriacs' though and a bit sissy-like. 

Anyone wanting to pass themselves off as a Treebadian must also use a scent otherwise their human 

odour will be immediately spotted as alien. A Treebadian odour can be replicated. Treebadians pick 

up the following from scent so this can be pre-programmed : 

Gender, Age, Pregnancy/Gravid, Alpha-male/Paterfamilias, Alpha-female/Matron, Soldier/Police, 

Ruler/Dominar, Serf/Underclass, Self-worth/Confidence, Guilt, Need to go to the toilet. 

There are many more but this should be sufficient for a disguise. 

It almost always rains on Treebad-3 and the Treebadians combine scent with licked raindrops. It is not 

unusual for meeting Treebadians to lick each other. This is the human equivalent of a hand shake. 

Treebadian justice is different from human. Punishments are visited on all family members of a guilty 

party. All punishments are physical and immediate, usually a beating or branding. Treebadians are 

law-abiding though and this rarely happens. 

Due to the fact that they release a scent when they are guilty most Treebadians find it almost 

impossible to break the law or tell a lie without being found out. So-much-so they have not developed 

any skills in deceit, bargaining, bluffing or diplomacy. Your average Treebadian tells it like it is and is 

honest to the point of abruptness.

Norlots 

Norlots are an aggressive space fairing race. As well as operating as pirates in their own systems 

they have spread throughout the local area as mercenaries and renegades. Their crews are always 

male and very rarely take off their armoured space suits. 

Gornands 

An aggressive race of hunters that live on the only M class planet in the Gornand system. They attack 

with spears and bows. Tall and strong they are excellent warriors, but they are a long way away from 

making their way into space.

Babi-Ijo 

Homeworld : Rivo-3 

Known Locally as 'Ruma Babi'. Population: 45 billion. Tech : Warp, Replicator (Low level) 

The Babi-Ijo are a war like, lazy, gluttonous race of pig faced humanoids. They enjoy eating so much 

they often resort to cannibalism and will eat any other species they can catch. 

The planet is mostly barren desert, with vast cities that gather around the small seas and salt water 

lakes around the planets equator. The planet is a large ball of rock, it has no iron core, but it is 

far enough away from the star of Rivo to not suffer too much from the solar winds. 

However, species not local to the planet should take precautions against radiation. 

As the planet has no plate movement, there are never any earthquakes or volcanos. This has meant 

that the Babi-Ijo build perilously tall skyscrapers. 

The Babi-Ijo are lazy and corrupt. Graft is endemic in all industries and professions. 

They use a currency based on food. The planet is made up of 12 different nations that are federated 

into one planetary wide empire. Each nation has its own currency but these are prone to hyper 

inflation and pretty much worthless. Food stamps though are used for most trading and are stable, as 

each stamp can be traded for a meal. 

The Babi-Ijo store food in buildings much like a bank. Each food bank is shielded with a strong 

forcefield that prevents transporting and heavily guarded with robots and mercenaries. This is to 

prevent local criminal gangs from stealing food and food stamps. 

Many food items are rare and are traded for huge amounts. 

Babi-Ijo recognise each other by smell and thus all members of a humanoid species look much the 

same to them so using scent as a disguise is a viable option. They do not see colours and cannot 

focus. 

This makes them terrible shots, so weapons fired by Babi-Ijo usually have (unreliable!) auto-aiming.

Burung Mera 

Homeworld : Rivo-2 

Known Locally as 'Ruma Burung'. Population: 3 billion. Tech : Warp, Transporter, Replicator 

This is a small M class planet, about half the size of earth. It has low gravity, but a stable atmosphere. 

It is mainly forests and mountains. The planet is almost totally covered in trees and rather than 

concentrated cities, the planet is covered in endless treetop villages. 

The dominant species of Rivo-2 are the Burung Mera, a race of plump feathered avian humanoids. 

The gravity on Rivo-2 is light, about the same as the Earth's moon, so it is an easy place for the BM to 

fly in. 

They are aggressive in their nature but apart from the long running war with the Babi-Ijo they are not 

by nature war like. 

Most of the technology of the regional species is not their own, but discovered in archaeological sights 

of an ancient and dead race. It is thought this race died out when the Babi-Ijo ate them all. 

There is some evidence to support this. 

Burung Mera recognise each other via plumage and non-language skwaks. Humans are in essence 

faceless 

to them. They can recognise idividuals of other races via their voices, but this is nullified when 

using the universal translator. With more than a few people to deal with it is best to wear different 

colours to avoid confusion, assuming their are no obviously visible differences such as size.

3. Character Classes 

While the species of the sector have all developed very unique and prominent cultures in their own 

rights, the needs of space are the same across the board. Every starship needs technicians, pilots 

and a commanding officer to run her. Characters can be in space either because they are working for 

an organization (i.e. Starfleet) or are in space for military or scientific purposes. It might be that they 

are merchants (or maybe smugglers) and are looking to make a profit. 

Whatever the culture of a player’s character, the mechanics of the game are best served by having 

standardized progression for character types. Game mechanics aside, the actual role-playing is left 

entirely up to the players, the Game Master and the campaign style that you as a gaming group wish 

to choose. In other words, while an Andorian Operations Specialist and a Vulcan Operations 

Specialist use the same mechanics template the culture and species traits are entirely different and 

role-playing should reflect that. 

Ability Scores 

Your character has six abilities: Strength, Constitution, Dexterity, Intelligence, Wisdom and 

Charisma. To obtain a score for an ability roll 4d6. Re-roll any ones or twos and sum the highest 

three die. Do this for each of the six abilities. Apply all racial modifiers and voila, your ability 

scores are ready to go. Use the following table to determine your ability score modifiers. 

Ability Modifiers 

Score Modifier Score Modifier 

1 -6 15-16 +3 

2 -5 17-18 +4 

3 -4 19-20 +5 

4 -3 21 – 22 +6 

5-6 -2 23 – 24 +7 

7-8 -1 25 – 26 +8 

9-10 0 27 – 28 +9 

11-12 +1 29 – 30 +10 

13-14 +2 Ability Scores cannot 

surpass 30 

Add 1 point to any score at 4th level and every four levels your character obtains thereafter (8th, 12th, 

16th, 20th) 

Some telepathic abilities can affect ability scores; make sure that you keep track of what a 

decrease/increase in your score does to your ability score modifier 

Poisons, illness and disease can all affect ability scores 

Each Skill has a relevant ability and each character class relies more on some abilities 

than others. 

If a Characters Constitution score becomes 0 they die.

Weapons Proficiencies (Optional rule) 

These have been reworked slightly in our game. As usual, if you do not have the correct proficiency 

then the -4 modifier to the rolls apply. 

But now a Weapon Proficiency also functions as a skill. If you have the proficiency then this counts as 

a class skill and points can be spent in it and IP points gain. This skill modifier is added onto the 

attack roll of the weapon in use. 

Note: Do not apply Strength and Dexterity modifiers to Weapons Skills, these are applied to the Base 

Attack Bonus. A Weapon Skill is the Rank only, without modifiers.

Pilot 

From take-off to landing, a Pilots work is never done. One of the most integral positions on a 

starship of any class, Pilots tend to be freewheeling individuals that have a great passion for 

piloting. 

A starship’s Pilot is responsible for interstellar navigation, atmospheric travel and carrying out 

evasive and offensive manoeuvres during combat. When the starship is docked Pilots tend to be the 

first ones in the local Starbase’s bar. Don’t judge too quickly because they’re always the first 

ones ready to get back out into space.

Class Features 

In addition this class is trained in Sensors use and gain a proficiency in a particular sensor type as 

specified in the table on page 120 every second level. 

In addition this class gains the feat 'Sensor Expertise' in a sensor of their choice every fourth level. 

(This acts as a +4 bonus when using this sensor type) 

Combat Maneuvers: At 2nd level (and every four levels thereafter) a Pilot adds the given 

bonus to all Pilot skill checks made during combat. The bonuses do not stack. 

Evasive Maneuvers: At 4th level a Pilot gains the ability to avoid enemy fire. To avoid 

half the given damage in a single attack a Pilot makes a d20 roll +10 and adds his Pilot skill bonus (to 

include all Class bonuses). If the result is higher than the damage dealt the attempt is successful. 

At 12th level a successful Evasive Maneuver results in no damage taken. This ability can only be 

used once a round. 

Improved Navigation: At 8th level Pilots can add a +1 for every two levels of Pilot they 

have to their Plot Course and Navigate rolls. 

Pilot Mastery: At 20th level a Pilot realizes their full potential and adds an 

additional +5 to all checks with the following skills: 

Dock, Pilot, Plot Course, Navigate 

Free Starting Skills : 1 rank in First Aid, 1 rank in Use Replicator.

Operations Specialist 

The Operations Specialist (also known as operations officer or chief of operations) is a position 

whose duties involve resource control, energy allocation, repair and Starship Systems 

management. Communications control may also be within the realm of an Operations Specialist. 

Operations Specialists coordinate the scheduling of resources, hardware and system usage for an 

entire starship, outpost or space station. 

On space stations, the Chief of Operations usually commands the maintenance and engineering 

staff, since stations do not require the large number of propulsion engineers typically found 

working under the command of a Chief Engineer on a starship

In addition this class gains the feat 'Sensor Expertise' in a sensor of their choice every third level. 

(This acts as a +4 bonus when using this sensor type) 

Skill Specialty: At 1st level an Operations Specialist gains an inherent +3 to any one 

Operations skill. 

Mind like a Database: Operations Specialists have a knack for remembering information that 

they’ve come across. All those hours of searching information databases rub off after a while. At 2nd 

level Operations Specialists gain an inherent +4 to all Knowledge (Technology) checks. 

Expertise: Operations Specialists spend more time than most people streamlining their equipment 

and workstations. At 4th level they gain an inherent +1 to all Operations skills and an additional +1 

every four levels thereafter. 

Technical Savvy: At 5th level the Operations Specialist gains the ability to Craft 

(Masterwork Item). This item has an inherent +1 bonus. This bonus increases to +2 at 10th, +3 at

Medic 

Trained in practical emergency medical knowledge and skills that can be deployed within a rapid 

time frame. Patient treatment guidelines are described in protocols following cultural and 

shipboard policies and traditions. 

Advanced Medics have the theoretical, practical and scientific knowledge to appropriately apply 

complex patient treatments, albeit usually under the supervision of a medical officer. Certain 

scenarios arise in which there is no Doctor available (small crew transports, smugglers, raiders) 

the Medic must assume all responsibilities 

The role of the "medic" cannot readily be equated to any other non-military profession. Medics 

perform the roles of doctor, nurse, counsellor, paramedic, psychologist, surgeon, pharmacist, 

clinical coordinator, physiotherapist, teacher, and so on. The roles are so extensive that the 

"medic" has difficulty gaining recognition for their skills.

Enhanced Treat Injury: Whenever a Medic uses the Treat Injury skill, they get a +2 

bonus to their check. This bonus is a result of training and their 

familiarity with medical tricorders and other medical equipment. 

It increases by an additional +2 at 5th, 10th, 15th and 20th levels. 

Anaesthetics & Analgesics: Medics receive extensive pharmacological training. The Medic 

is knowledgeable of a variety of numbing agents and painkillers that will affect most species. 

Neutralize Toxin: Contact with hazardous materials is almost impossible to avoid 

while travelling through space. A Medic has the ability to counteract a poison by following the following 

procedure: 

1. Identify the Toxin 

2. Make a Neutralize roll (1d20 + 1 for every two 

levels of Medic possessed) 

3. For the Identify and Neutralize Skill Checks see the 

‘Toxins and Exotic Substances’ table for details 

Remove Stun: If a fellow PC has been stunned the Medic may take a round to treat them. A Medic 

must make a Treat Injury check with the SKILL CHECK being 10 + the original Save SKILL CHECK of 

the Stun. If the Medic is successful the PC recovers from their stunned state. 

In addition a fellow PC may be stunned by the effects of non-lethal damage, such as from phaser 

pistols on a stun setting. The target heals d8+Total Tread Injury Skill Non-Lethal damage. This takes 

one full round. 

If this is done again in the next hour the target becomes fatigued. 

Radiation Therapy: The Medic becomes skilled in uses specific types of radiation to assist in long 

term care. As a side effect the Medic can also devise medical means to offer radiation resistances for 

short time periods if a successful Preventative Medicine skill check is made. See the ‘Radiation’ table 

for details. At the Advanced level the effectiveness of the Medic’s treatments doubles. 

(GM – there is no Radiation table??). 

This feat also gives a +4 synergy bonus to Knowledge(Radiology) and acts as a Science 

Specialisation.

Surgeries 

Surgery: The Medic acquires enough knowledge to begin performing surgery. To do so a 

Medic must make a Knowledge (Specific Species Anatomy) roll and add +1 for every two levels of the 

medic. 

The Treat Injury Skill Checks differ for each level of Surgery (Basic, Advanced, Exotic) and even for 

each type of surgery. 

Please consult the ‘Surgeries’ table for details.

Mercenary 

Where the Tactical Specialist gets their benefits from hard training and relentless study of combat 

methodology, the Mercenary has one teacher: Experience. 

A mercenary is a soldier who fights or engages in warfare primarily for private gain, usually with little 

regard for ideological, national, or political considerations. Never truly affiliated with an actual 

government, Mercenaries are guns-for-hire in the most literal sense. 

Due to the political instabilities of the 2150s, there were many Private Military Organizations that 

formed that would offer military services in exchange for payment. It was not uncommon for a 

Mercenary to be taking orders from a particular group and then several months later (after being 

hired by another group) be shooting at his former employers.

Sixth Sense: Mercenaries tend to ‘feel’ their way through a fight. Because of this they 

add the Wisdom modifier (if positive) to their Defense score. 

Heat of Battle: When the Mercenary feels that a fight is starting to get intense he can fly 

into the Heat of Battle. He temporarily gains a +4 to Dexterity, a +4 to 

Constitution but loses his Wisdom bonus to Defense. The Heat of Battle 

lasts for 3 + 1/level of Mercenary the character has. 

Stun Resistance: At 6th level a Mercenary adds a +4 bonus to their rolls to resist 

Stun effects. 

Bloodlust: At 12th level the Mercenary gains Damage Reduction 2 while in the Heat of Battle. This 

bonus stacks with whatever armor the Mercenary is wearing.

Boomer 

As soon as a population expands beyond the confines of its homeworld the need for an 

inter-planetary merchant class is born. Called ‘Boomers’ in Earth-slang, these merchants 

tend to end up trading far and wide with many species that are not even know by their 

homeworld governments. 

Usually found far from home and in between worlds in deep space, your average Boomer 

usually has no one to rely on but themselves. Making repairs on the fly, being able to 

bandage up a plasma burn and fighting off pirates all fall into the category of ‘all in a 

day’s work’ for a Boomer.

Mystic 

The galaxy is full of species with many different interpretations of how the Cosmos came 

into existence. Some religions blend the spiritual and the scientific while others abhor 

combining the two but whatever the general belief structures of a religion are they always 

seem to develop individuals who embrace the more esoteric side of their philosophies. 

A Mystic believes in the pursuit of achieving communion with, or conscious awareness 

of, the divine spiritual truth through direct experience, intuition, or insight - and the belief 

that such experience is an important source of knowledge, understanding, and wisdom. 

Traditions may include a belief in the literal existence of realities beyond empirical 

perception, or a belief that a true human perception of the world transcends logical 

reasoning or intellectual comprehension. A person delving in these areas may be called a 

Mystic. 

To be a mystic a character must be telepathic.

Use Stats: CHA and WIS 

Mind Speak: At 1st level a Mystic can speak telepathically to any sentient being 

as long as they share a common language. 

If you can see them : No roll 

If you can hear them, but not see them : DC 5 on Telepathy 

If you know where they are precisely : DC 10 on Telepathy

Interstellar: DC40 but still feint 

(thick metal doors block - 2 

for every 1 feet of metal - you get -2) 

+1 if you are friends with them 

Suggestion: At 2nd level the Mystic gains the ability to make a one or two sentence suggestion to a 

sentient being. The suggestion must sound reasonable for the affected being to carry it out. 

Suggesting that a being kill itself or act directly opposed to standing orders will automatically fail. The 

targeted being may make a will save to avoid the Mystic’s attempt. 

DC 10 to do it. 

Then target gets a check against 10+1/2 level+CHA mod 

Must have line of sight or line of effect if you want to send the Suggestion via Mind Speak. 

The Suggestion will wear off after 10-Targets Will Save in days to the minimum of one day. 

You may not have any more than your Level (In Mystic) x2 suggestions active at any one time. 

If the target has a critical success against it, then they are aware of it. 

If the suggestion fails then the target is immune to further suggestion attempts for FORT hours. 

Mystic Evasion: At 3rd level the Mystic has a sixth sense when it comes to avoiding damage. This 

has the effect of a +1 to AC and a +1 to Reflexes where the Mystic would take damage. 

Enthrall: This ability gained at 4th level allows the Mystic to hold large audiences in sway while giving 

an oration. The audience will pay attention to the Mystic as long as they continue to speak but will not 

necessarily agree with or approve of what is being said. The Mystic can affect 10 people for every two 

Mystic levels possessed. 

The targeted being may make a will save (against 10+1/2 level+CHA) to avoid the Mystic’s attempt.

Detect Thoughts: At 5th level the Mystic gains the ability to detect the surface thoughts of a sentient 

being. The amount of information garnered depends on how much time is spent lurking through the 

target’s thoughts. 

(Same range limits as Mind Speak) 

Mind Stab: 4th level. During combat, a mystic may spend a standard action to send a series of 

unpleasant or confusing images to an enemy within line of sight and 5ft per level of Telepathy. DC 15 

on Telepathy to it. The target then must make a will save (against 10+1/2 level+CHA mod) or be 

stunned for 1d4+1 rounds. 

(Target drops all held objects, -2 to AC, loses Dex bonus to AC) 

This ability can be used once per day per level. 

Astral Projection: At level 6 a mystic may enter a trance (1 full round) and then travel beyond their 

body 30ft per total skill mod in Telepathy. The mystic travels at their normal walking speed in any 

direction. 

(Other Mystics can detect you with an apposed Telepathy roll). 

Arouse Emotion: At 7th level the Mystic gains the ability to induce favourable emotions in sentient 

beings. This gives an inherent +4 bonus to all skills in the Communication Set. 

Telepathic Stasis: At 8th level the Mystic may lock herself in a stasis with a single opponent. By 

succeeding at a melee touch attack the Mystic and her opponent become locked in a stasis where 

neither of them can move or think about anything besides the stasis they are in. Both are totally 

defenceless and vulnerable. The Mystic can call off the stasis at any time. The targeted being may 

make a will save to avoid the Mystic’s attempt. 

Hypnotism: At 10th level the Mystic can hypnotize a single target. This ability works exactly like 

Suggestion but detailed instructions can be given. The only order that will not be accepted (and will 

cause the Hypnotism to fail) is ordering the being to hurt itself in any way. 

The targeted being may make a will save to avoid the Mystic’s attempt. 

Friendship: At 12th level the Mystic can instill an overwhelming sense of Friendship into a single 

target. This causes the affected being to agree with and defend any statements made by the Mystic. It 

also encourages the befriended being to defend the Mystic from physical violence. Also, any 

reasonable request will most likely be accommodated. The targeted being may make a will save to 

avoid the Mystic’s attempt. 

Create Image: At 14th level the Mystic can cause 1d6 sentient beings to see things that aren’t there. 

The Mystic can create a projected mental image no greater in size than 10 cubic feet. It can include 

sight, smell, sound and tactile qualities. The image can also speak if the Mystic 

wishes it to. The image lasts only as long as the Mystic concentrates on it and it alone. The Mystic 

can walk, talk eat and do other basic tasks but must maintain most of their concentration 

on the image causing them to seem aloof and unaware. The targeted being may make a will save to 

avoid the Mystic’s attempt. 

Dream Message: At 15th level the Mystic may enter a trance in order to project a scenario into a 

specific being’s dreams. The target must be asleep and the Mystic must remain motionless and totally 

concentrate of the Dream Message to be sent. Because the Mystic is so entranced they are totally 

vulnerable to outside attack as they are not aware of their physical environment. 

Dominate: At 18th level the Mystic gains the ability to totally dominate another sentient being’s 

mind. Once dominated, the target is under total control of the Mystic and will follow every command to 

the letter without question. The target being may attempt one Will saving throw per day to break the 

domination. 

Break Mind: At 20th level a Mystic gains the power to cause someone such sever mental stress as to 

drive them clinically insane. The targeted being may make a will save to avoid the Mystic’s attempt. If 

the saving throw is failed, roll percentile to determine ‘just how crazy’ the target has become. The

lower the roll, the less sanity lost. Characters that roll 100% become totally insane and become 

NPCs.

Science Specialist 

A scientist or science specialist can study a wide or very narrow range of subjects from physics and 

chemistry to warp theory, anthropology or geology. 

Science officers, while onboard starships are responsible for observing and theorizing explanations 

for strange or seemingly unexplainable circumstances and in some circumstances the sensor 

readings 

A general survey party may require the direction of a science officer. Science personnel are often 

used to gather data during away missions and provide the command officers with all reports, 

observations, and speculations that might have affected the safety of their mission or vessel. 

A science crewman or officer may serve on a spaceship acting as an authority on astrophysical 

phenomena or species encountered.

4. Advanced Training 

Sometimes regular training just isn’t enough. There are always advanced techniques and 

methods that separate a specialist from a generalist. That’s where Advanced Training 

comes into play. Each type of Advanced Training has prerequisites that must be fulfilled 

before any levels can be taken in it.

Commanding Officer 

Whether its in command of a deep space Explorer, a military Cruiser or a Cargo Freighter, every ship 

needs a Commanding Officer. Also put in charge of troops in a military environment the Commanding 

Officer has a definitive leadership quality. It is the Commanding Officer who makes the life and death 

decisions of their subordinates as well as all decisions that affect the day-to-day life of all underneath 

the Commanding 

Officer’s command. Different titles include Captain, General, Lieutenant or Commander depending on 

organization, species and situation.

Technical Savvy: Commanding Officers always look like they have the answer (even 

if they really don’t!) and because of this air of confidence they 

instill a +4 Competency bonus to themselves and everyone within 

30’ of the Commanding Officer when making Repair checks. 

Bonus Technique: The Commanding Officer gets a bonus feat (player’s choice) 

indicative of all the extra training they put in in order to take 

command.

Requisition: The Commanding Officer can requisition repair parts, medical supplies or basic 

personnel equipment once each time they dock at a port in which their affiliated organization has a 

representative. 

The amount of supplies procured is determined by multiplying the number of Commanding Officer 

levels a character has by their Charisma bonus (so a 2nd level Commanding Officer with a 

Charisma bonus of 3 would have a total of 6) and adding that to a d20 roll. The result is how many 

repair parts, medical kits or how much in basic supplies the Commanding Officer was able to 

procure from the organizational quartermaster in excess of the ships allocation. 

Starship Survival: While in command of a vessel the inherent Defense of the ship gets 

a +4 bonus due to the Commanding Officer’s command and control coordination. 

Tactical Assault: While in command of a vessel the inherent attack bonus of the 

ships weaponry increases by +4 due to the Commanding Officer’s knowledge at effective offensive 

tactics. 

Leadership: While in command of a vessel the Commanding Officer and crew 

receive an additional +2 Competency bonus as a result of the Commanding Officer’s coordination and 

guidance during 

operations.

Chief Engineer 

Having a great talent for engineering and a keen judgment for needed modifications are 

just the preliminaries when it comes to being called Chief Engineer. This individual has 

to have a faith in technology and in their ability to master it. 

Having that kind of drive, knowledge and ability comes in handy when its time to save a 

ship in a jam. It usually leads to a reputation of a 'miracle worker'. It’s this intense focus 

that enables the Chief Engineer to master the complexities of Warp Drive engineering 

and other starship systems. 

An expert in technical and analytical abilities, the versatility of a Chief Engineer is 

practically a requirement on larger starships (as is the miraculous ability to complete 

repairs in record time).

Power Relay: A Chief Engineer can squeeze extra power out of a Warp reactor because of their high 

level of skill. At 1st level a Chief Engineer can add 1d6 points of energy to a ship’s output level (rising 

to 2d6 at 3rd level and 3d6 at 5th level). This extra energy last for a 

number of rounds equal to the number of levels a character has of Chief Engineer plus their 

Intelligence modifier. 

Jury Rig: Chief Engineers know what needs to be fixed with new parts and what can be put back 

together with salvaged components. A Chief Engineer only needs to use half of the required parts to 

conduct full repairs. 

Back of my hand: If a Chief Engineer has spent at least one entire Chief Engineer level working on a 

particular starship they become incredibly familiar with it. Since they know the ship like the back of 

their hand they can add a +4 Familiarity bonus to all Repair and Computer Use checks done for that 

particular ship.

Miracle Worker: At 5th level a Chief Engineer has learned all the methods and techniques that 

separate the bumbling amateur from a true professional. They can now half all repair times.

Ace 

While regular Pilots may fly for the thrill of it, for an Ace there is something more. An 

Ace has a connection to their ship and even a connection to the stars. For an Ace it’s a 

personal undertaking to manoeuvre a starship and because of that they have a distinct and 

enhanced approach to the controls.

Ace table for progression) to all Pilot and Navigate checks. 

Like a Sextant: An Ace need only make one Navigation check per Warp trip instead of the usual 1 per 

light-year traveled. 

Starship Dodge: An Ace can designate an opposing starship that they are engaged in combat with 

and receive a +1 dodge bonus to their starship’s defense. 

Flyby: At 4th level the Ace gains the ability to fly to within mere meters of an opposing starship at high 

speed. As a result the opposing starship’s Commanding Officer must make a Will save SKILL 

CHECK = 1 per level of Ace + 1 per the number of ranks the Ace has in Pilot. If the Will Save is 

unsuccessful the enemy ship’s crew is stunned for one round and cannot act.

Trooper to maintain their Dexterity Bonus to Defense even when it would normally be taken away. At 

5th level, the Elite Trooper can no longer be flanked. 

Sure Shot: At 2nd level the Elite Trooper can opt to forego all other attacks and movement in a round 

and attempt a Sure Shot. The Elite Trooper makes a single attack with a +4 Concentration bonus to 

the attack roll. If successful, the attack automatically does maximum damage for the weapon used. 

Can only be used with ranged weapons.

Intelligence 

Operative 

Spying on enemies of the state or collecting data on enemy troop movements, an Intelligence 

Operative can be anywhere and be anyone. Advanced cosmetic surgery even makes inter-species 

intelligence operations possible, although difficult. 

Intelligence Operatives report only to their direct superiors within their agency. Many intelligence 

missions are covert and as a result the Intelligence organizations of the sector undertake many 

missions without the direct knowledge of their respective governments. 

It isn’t that uncommon for operatives to pose as cargo ship crewman, military personnel…even as a 

cook if the need arises.

Rosetta Stone: An Intelligence Operative is trained in linguistic skills. Choose two languages. The 

Intelligence Operative automatically learns them to skill rank four. 

Skill Emphasis: The Intelligence Operative gains this skill for free at second level.

Interrogate/ Resist Interrogation: The Intelligence Operative is trained in the methods most effective 

in acquiring information. They get an inherent +2 bonus to Bluff, 

Diplomacy and Intimidate at 3rd level. They also get +2 Bonus to Fortitude and Will saves made in 

order to resist interrogation techniques. 

Toxic Compound At 4th level the Intelligence Operative acquires knowledge 

Use: of how to handle, use and detect toxic compounds. They receive a +5 Familiarity bonus when 

dealing with toxic compounds. See the ‘Toxins and Exotic Substances’ for Skill Checks. 

Death Strike: At 5th level the Intelligence Operative learns how to focus their melee combat attack 

and turn it into a fierce and often deadly strike. As long as the Intelligence Operative has at least 6 

ranks of Knowledge (Anatomy) for a given species they can attempt a Death Strike on a member of 

that species. By foregoing all other attack actions in a round an Intelligence Operative can make a 

single strike. If successful the target must make a Fortitude Save SKILL CHECK = 15 + the 

Operative’s Strength modifier. If the save is unsuccessful the target dies. If the target makes a 

successful save then double all damage done. The Intelligence Operative can use this ability 5 times

Close Enough: By 4th level an Explorer has learned how to make repairs to a ship that are good 

enough for casual travel but won’t hold up in a firefight or in any kind of spatial anomaly. By utilizing 

half the repair parts necessary for a repair job an Explorer can repair systems to operational status 

but they will only last 1d4 + 1 per level of Explorer the character has rounds during hazardous 

conditions (combat, spatial anomaly, neutron storm etc).

How Skills work in Star Trek RPG 

Skills in Star Trek RPG are grouped into Skill Sets. Characters get their skill proficiencies based 

upon Class and Advanced Training. Characters can use skills that they are not proficient in but 

they will receive a –5 modifier to all rolls in reference to Skill Checks they are not Class 

proficient in. Skill Points may be allocated into any Skill regardless of whether the character has 

a Class proficiency with that Skill Set or not unless specifically noted. 

The maximum number of ranks a character may have in a given skill is 4 + 1 per level, maximum 

16 ranks. 

Skill Points are also gained dependant upon class and level. See the particular Class or Advanced 

Training description to see how many Skill Points a character gets per level. 

For critical success and failure, please consult the following chart. 

Skill Check Success/Failure Table 

Results Failure by 16 or more 

Absolute failure. No further attempts allowed for 24 hours. If possible, your attempt has the opposite 

effect from what you intended. 

Failure by 9 - 16 

You zone-out while attempting your action and fail miserably. No further attempts allowed for one 

hour. 

Failure by 1 - 8 

You almost got it. You can try again immediately with a +2 bonus to your roll. 

0 

Congratulations, you made it! 

Success by 10 or more 

You’re good. You’re so good you can take +5 to all other Skill Checks in the next 15 minutes. 

[GM – not sure about that!] 

How to make a Skill Check 

In order to attempt a Skill Check a player must roll a d20, add the number of ranks their character 

has in the skill, add the respective ability modifier and then add any other miscellaneous bonus. 

If the resulting number is equivalent or higher than the Skill Check’s Target Number, then you’ve 

succeeded. If the result is lower, the attempt fails. 

A simple task (using a Tricorder to analyze the structural integrity of a building) would have a Target 

Number of 14, whereas attempting to isolate the bio-sign of a specific individual on a Space Station 

would be more difficult with a prospective Target Number of 28. 

The Game Master should determine target Numbers for Skill Checks. Below is a description of all the 

skills in the Star Trek Role Playing Game. Within each description you will find recommended uses 

and which ability modifier to add to your Skill Check rolls.

Skill Descriptions 

Everyman Set 

Bluff 

Charisma; whenever the character is attempting to lie or be ambiguous in a situation, they may add 

their Bluff bonus to their Skill Check. 

Climb 

Strength; whenever attempting to scale a wall or overcome an obstacle the character adds this bonus 

to their Skill Check. 

Computer Use 

Intelligence; whether its allocating power from one system to another, accessing a communications 

array or powering up a Warp core, this is the skill for all interaction with a computer operating system. 

For creating programs and command algorithms see Write Program. 

Replicator Use 

Intelligence; whenever using a replicator for nonstandard items or feeding in new things. If the item is 

already a standard item within the replicator system then no roll is needed. To get an item into the 

replicator system then usually it is run through the transporter system. In which case a straight DC10 

roll on Transporter Use is also required.

Drive(____) 

Dex: Many planets and societies still use self piloted ground cars and other means of transport. These 

vary from place to place. 

Entertain (_____) 

Charisma; many people enjoy singing, music, theater, storytelling or performance art. This skill allows 

a character to excel at these although it must be taken independently for each type of entertainment.

First Aid(INT) 

Using a first aid kit someone with this skill can heal someone up by 1d8 HP (non lethal also) by 

making a DC 17 skill check. It is a DC 15 skill check to merely stabilise someone. 

If you are just using torn up sheets and things then there is a -4 to the roll. 

Most people that have ever worked in the military or professional capacity will have received basic 

First Aid training and will have 1 rank in it at level 1. 

This takes 10 - skill level in minutes, min 2 minutes 

Technical Authoring / Report Writing(INT) 

Being an officer in Starfleet is not always about shooting baddies and teaching hot alien women the 

‘meaning of this Earth thing called love’. There is a lot of report writing too! 

All Starfleet officers start with 1 rank at level 1. 

Some reports may take a long time to write. It is possible to take 10 and take 20.

Gamble 

Wisdom: people love games of chance but there is a certain skill to it. Ranks in this skill will ensure 

your characters don’t lose all their money. There is never a guarantee, though 

Hide 

Dexterity; sometimes you just need to be unseen. When covert operations or surveillance are the 

name of the game hiding may be your best option. 

Intimidate 

Strength; when you’re trying to pry information out of someone I t pay to be big and mean looking. If 

someone doesn’t want to give you the information that you need, it may be easier to scare it out of 

them. 

Jump 

Strength; there may arise the occasion when your character needs to hop across ledges on a 

mountainous planet or maybe the station your on is about to explode and you need to jump to reach 

the escape pod. Normally a character can jump twice their height in distance but having the Jump skill 

allows you to increase the distance by one meter for every three points in Jump your character has. 

Knowledge (_____) 

Intelligence; by selecting this skill a character begins their study in a particular subject. This eventual 

expertise allows them to make Knowledge checks in given situations. For example, a character with

Knowledge (Kreetassan Culture) would be allowed to make a Skill Check to determine if the character 

was aware of Kreetassan taboos. The success or failure margin determines how much (or how little) 

information is known and how accurate the information is. This skill must be taken independently for 

each type of knowledge. 

Certain Knowledges are class-related skills and may not be taken without the appropriate Skill Set 

proficiencies. 

Listen 

Wisdom; sometimes you can hear them coming. Sometimes you can’t. Putting skill points in Listen 

ensures that the noise level doesn’t have to be on par with a Klingon poker game for your character to 

hear it. 

Profession (_____) 

Intelligence; this skill allows characters to have a secondary profession besides their class. The 

Profession could be anything from Novelist to Cook to Lawyer. A character can contract their services 

for payment if they wish. This skill must be taken independently for each profession. 

e.g. Artist 

Read/Write (Language) 

See the special entry at the end of the Skills section 

Search 

Wisdom; whether it’s searching an ancient ruin or trying to discover where a fugitive is hiding out, 

ranks in search will make a character more effectively discover hidden objects. 

Speak (Language) 

See the special entry at the end of the Skills section 

Perception 

Wisdom; unlike Search (where a character is actively looking for something) Perception comes in to 

play when a character isn’t specifically looking for something. For example, while buying supplies 

Richard and Anne are told to make Perception Skill Checks. Richard rolls a 12 and Anne rolls a 

19. Anne’s character notices the ambush and isn’t caught by surprise whereas Richards’s character 

walks right into the ambush. 

Swim 

Strength; while almost anyone can float in water, it’s a different story when your doing the 

breaststroke for a lengthy duration or while in rough waters. Ranks in this skill will allow the character 

to be able to swim in these extreme circumstances or for extended periods. 

Use Tricorder (medical) 

Intelligence; equipped with sensors and analysis software tailored for medical diagnostic purposes but 

different enough in use that proficiency with a tactical Tricorder does not entail proficiency with a 

medical Tricorder. 

A Medic must use a medical Tricorder to analyze a patient’s wounds before making a Treat Injury or 

Surgery check. Higher ranks in this skill allow characters to get better results when scanning or 

analyzing with a Tricorder. 

Use Tricorder (tactical)

Intelligence; the Tricorder is designed as a portable sensing, data analysis, and data communications 

device, with many specialized abilities that make it an asset to crews aboard starships and space 

stations as well as on away missions. Higher ranks in this skill allow characters to get better results 

when scanning or analyzing with a Tricorder. 

Telepathy 

Int, Wis or Cha 

Some beings are telepathic. This is a generic skill for rolling against when using such techniques as 

Mind Meld and Mind Speak.

Pilot Skill Set 

Dock 

Intelligence; take off and landing are a skill unto themselves. Whenever a character attempts to safely 

take off, land, dock or undock a starship they may add their Dock skill to their Skill Check. 

Pilot 

Intelligence; whenever attempting to manoeuvre a starship at Impulse or slower speeds a character 

may add their Pilot skill to their Skill Check. 

Plot Course 

Intelligence; space is vast but not nearly so empty as most people think. The course between a 

starship’s starting point and ending point can be full of nebulas, gravitational eddies or other spatial 

anomalies. Before going to warp speed a character must make a Plot Course Skill Check and may 

add their Plot Course skill ranks to the check. 

This skill is also used when going to warp. It takes 20 - (Plot Course skill points) to go to warp to a 

designated destination. Minimum 1 full round. 

Navigate 

Intelligence; while at warp speeds a character must make Navigate checks every light year travelled. 

A Pilot may add their Navigate ranks to the relevant Skill Check.

Operations Skill Set 

Craft (Item) 

Wisdom; the character is skilled at making a particular type of item. The character can choose any 

item on the General Equipment list or a specific type of weapon. This skill must be taken 

independently for each item the character wishes to know how to Craft. 

Demolition 

Wisdom; there are circumstances when the need arises to take something apart without worrying 

about keeping any salvageable parts. 

Render Inoperative 

Intelligence; this skill is used in order to stop a timer on an explosive device, cause doors to stay shut, 

disable communication systems onboard a starship or a myriad of other possible uses. 

Repair 

Intelligence; when something breaks or a character is attempting to upgrade a system, a repair check 

is made. A character adds their ranks in Repair to any relevant Skill Checks made. 

Repair is also the skill used to 'heal' Androids and Physical Avatars. Each skill roll uses up 1 'unit' of 

components. Each Unit of components costs 500 credits.

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Transporter 

A typical transport sequence began with a lock to coordinates, during which the destination was 

verified and programmed, via the targeting scanners. Obtaining or maintaining a transporter lock 

enables the transporter operator to know the subject's location, even in motion, allowing the beaming 

process to start more quickly. This is an essential safety precaution when a starship away team enters 

a potentially dangerous situation that would require an emergency beam-out. 

A transporter lock was usually maintained by tracing the homing signal of a communicator or 

combadge. When there was a risk that such devices would be lost in the field or are otherwise 

unavailable, personnel could be implanted with a subcutaneous transponder before an away mission, 

to still provide a means to maintain a transporter lock. Alternatively, sensors could be used to scan for 

the bio-sign or energy signature of a subject, which could then be fed into the transporter's targeting 

scanner for a lock. 

Next, the lifeform or object to be beamed was scanned on the quantum level, using a molecular 

imaging scanner. At this point, Heisenberg compensators took into account the position and direction 

of all subatomic particles composing the object or individual and created a map of the physical 

structure being disassembled, amounting to billions of kiloquads of data.

Write Program 

Intelligence; whether a character needs to write a security protocol, create a virus to infiltrate an 

enemy’s database or create a program to track another being’s computer activity, Write Program is 

the skill needed. 

Knowledge(Warp Technology) 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Warp_drive

Medical Skill Set 

Treat Injury 

Intelligence; this is the mainstay skill of Medics and Doctors everywhere. Use this skill when treating 

an injury that doesn’t require surgery such as burns, bruises and stun effects. 

When using the Dermal Regeneration tool of a Medical Tricorder a character can heal 1d8 Hit Points 

for every 5 total Skill Points in Treat Injury the character has.

Preventive Medicine 

Intelligence; after analyzing a potential medical threat a character may attempt to dispense an 

inoculation to threatened beings by making a Preventative Medicine Skill Check. A successful check 

implies that the 

character has developed a method to combat the potential medical threat. 

Knowledge (Toxic Compounds) 

Intelligence; this skill allows a character to have a familiarity with different types of Toxic Compounds 

and their use. See the ‘Exotic and Toxic Compounds’ table for particulars. 

Knowledge (Biology)

death and decay of living organisms, similarities between offspring and their parents (heredity), the 

flowering of plants as well as genetics and evolution. 

Knowledge (Anatomy) 

Intelligence; this skill allows a character to have an intimate knowledge of a specific species 

anatomical structure to include location of vital organs, musculature, bone structure, neurological 

systems as well as endocrine systems. 

Knowledge (Pharmaceutical) 

Intelligence; this skill allows a character to have an in depth knowledge of medicines, enzymes and 

other medicinal compounds and how to use them.

Communications Skill Set 

Bargain 

Charisma; this skill allows characters to get the best deal attainable on services and goods. To use 

this skill, a character must make an opposed bargain check with the merchant they are purchasing 

from. 

Bluff 

Charisma; whenever the character is attempting to lie or be ambiguous in a situation, they may add 

their Bluff bonus to their Skill Check. 

Diplomacy 

Charisma; this skill trains a character in etiquette, protocol, political posturing and subtlety of 

language. This is the skill to use when a character needs to put on their most gracious attitude or 

when they need to 

influence others. 

Disguise 

Wisdom; this skill allows a character to look like a different person or to look like they are a member of 

a particular organization. In order to see past the Disguise, an opposed Perception Skill Check must 

be made vs. the character’s Disguise Skill Check. 

Gather Information 

Charisma; this skill helps a character to find out who to talk to or where to go and ask about particular 

information. Also, a successful Gather Information Skill Check allows a character to discover what the 

‘word on the street’ is about a particular topic. 

Sense Motive 

Wisdom; this ability allows a character to recognize certain behaviours and relate them to possible 

motives a being may be trying to keep concealed. A successful Skill Check will let a character know 

whether or not a being is trustworthy or not.

Security Skill Set

Dexterity; this skill allows a character to attempt to slip out of shackles, wriggle out of ropes or any 

other kind of bindings they might be tied up in. 

Use Explosive 

Intelligence; this skill allows a character to handle and set explosives with little or no risk to 

themselves. See the ‘Explosives’ table for Skill Checks required for different types of explosives. 

Forgery 

Intelligence; a character uses this skill to fake travel documents, create a believable report to lure 

enemies into a trap or even falsify identification papers. The forgery is only inspected if the person 

reviewing the 

forged documents makes a successful Perception roll (opposed to the Forgery Skill Check result) to 

notice that the documents are suspect. The reviewer then needs to make an opposed Forgery skill 

check to try and catch the forgery. If the opposed Forgery check fails the documents are believed to 

be valid. If it is successful the documents are automatically realized to be false. 

Stealth 

Dexterity; by making a successful Skill Check a character can sneak up on someone, avoid video 

detection equipment or simply make little or no noise while moving. In order to realize that the 

character is there a being must make an opposed Perception Skill Check and surpass the character’s 

Stealth result. 

Survival 

Intelligence; this skill allows the character to forage for food, find water and find shelter in inhospitable 

terrains and climates.

But these are class skills for Tactical/Security only. 

Your rank in any given weapon type is added to your attack roll. (Note that the skill mod is already 

applied elsewhere on the character sheet). 

Your weapon skills will increase quickly with the IP system. Your skills can go over the level cap by 

using IPs. Levelling up skill points can be used on Weapons Skills, but this cannot push it over the 

cap, even if already advanced by IPs.

6. Language 

How it works in Star Trek RPG 

During this early era of play (2130 – 2165) the idea of a Universal Translator is still in its infancy 

and won’t even be in common use until the late 2150’s (and then only by cultures affiliated with 

the Coalition of Planets). The UT won’t be a standard piece of technology until the 2170s when 

it becomes more fine-tuned by necessity through the expansion of the Federation. Until then 

UT’s are usually only found being used by the more advanced Starships and their crews. 

This being said it is important that characters have the ability to speak multiple languages. All 

characters begin play being fluent and literate in their native language. Some species 

automatically begin play with more than one language. In those cases the secondary languages 

should be treated as being conversational/proficient. If a player wishes to add extra languages at 

first level, they must choose from the relevant species’ Optional Languages list. 

To gain the ability to read/write or speak a language, a player must put at least one skill point 

(maximum four) in the desired language skill. The language skill progression works as follows: 

One Skill Point (Familiar) 

A character understands only the most basic of words such as food, water, ship, yes and no. If 

trying to communicate in this language a character only understands 10% of what is being said. 

If trying to read a text the character can only decipher 10% of the words but cannot write in the 

given language. 

Two Skill Points (Basic Understanding) 

While speaking the character can get across messages such as “I am from Earth” or “Where is the 

closest Starbase?” A character can grasp basic concepts within a written text and can write terse 

messages in the language but cannot give specific detail (only generalities). Overall 

understanding is at 30%. 

Three Skill Points (Conversational/Proficient) 

While speaking the character can grasp most concepts but does not have the ability to discuss 

technical details or abstract ideas. Also, colloquialisms are difficult (if not impossible) to 

understand. Reading and writing greatly improve at this level. While a character could write a 

letter to a friend in this language or read local newspapers technical information, legal language 

and advanced phrasing are beyond their ability. Overall understanding is at 65%. 

Four Skill Points (Fluent/Literate) 

While speaking the character can understand complex phrasing, abstract concepts and even wax 

philosophic. The character can read and comprehend even the most advanced texts with amazing 

clarity and can translate a given text into their native language (or any language they are 

Fluent/Literate in) with ease. A character has the ability to write detailed treatises and has a 

decent grasp on colloquialisms. Overall understanding is at 95%.

Unarmed Combat Damage 

You are skilled in dealing actual damage (as opposed to subdual damage) with unarmed attacks 

without the -4 modifier to attack. You have a critical range of (20, x2) and do 1d6 damage per attack. 

(You can increase your attacks via a skill specialisation - see skills)

combat.

Swift Shot

that round suffers a –2 penalty. 

Amendment: 

This is fine if you are shooting a bow and arrow, but most weapons in Star Trek can empty their clip in 

a single round! 

So when firing more than one shot this skill applies in the following way – You drop 2 off the penalty of 

the first two bullets. 

Thus a 5 bullet burst in a full round would have no penalty for the first two bullets, then -2 for the next 

three.

to the character’s Dexterity modifier + 1. The character can still only make one attack of opportunity 

on a single opponent. 

With this feat, the character may also make attacks of opportunity when flat-footed. 

Normal: A character without the Combat Reflexes feat can make only one attack of opportunity per 

round and can’t make attacks of opportunity when flat-footed.

8. Equipment 

Amidst species that have made it to the stars, technology and equipment can be as advanced or as 

primitive as the local inventors and profiteers have the capacity to create. In this chapter there are 

lists for standard equipment, trade goods, weapons, defensive items and medical goods. The 

prices are all given in 

A note about money 

All prices are given in the Terran Credit. The Terran Credit is the currency of Earth until 2198 

when the New World Economy is instituted and money goes the way of the dinosaur. 

An important note is that to other species the Terran Credit, the Andorian Mark or any other form 

of planetary currency is pretty useless. There are however several items that have a fairly 

standard value throughout the sector and are normally readily accepted in trade. The items are as 

follows: warp plasma, plasma injectors, warp coils, dilithium, platinum, gold and trillium (the 

latter three being classified as ‘precious metals’). The precious metals are highly valued by warp 

capable species because of their excellent conductivity and various uses in electronic devices of 

the era. The prices of these items tend to not fluctuate from star system to star system as much as 

other commodities and therefore provide a stable base of exchange. 

Replicator Rations as Credit 

Onboard Voyager, Replicator Rations were used as currency: 

Each day, each person is given a 1 day ration pack - this is from long term ships storage and provides 

enough food and water to keep you for one day. 

On top of that each crewman also receives replicator rations for the day. 

This is 100 grams per day - about 2 slices of bread or 4 biscuits or a cup of tea. 

Non-crew receive 50 grams per day 

People on parole receive none. 

People started saving them up on the ship to have larger meals. 

Items can also be traded for RRs with the Quartermasters. Generally the bigger the item the more 

grams you get. But if it has more complex parts that can be salvaged then they would get more 

(GoRR = Grams of Replicator Rations) 

A kilo of lead = 5 GoRR 

A wrist watch = 10 GoRR 

A phaser pistol = 100 GoRR 

The price you get though depends on how friendly the Quartermaster is with you and how positively 

you are viewed in general on the ship. You can of course trade with other people on board in the hope 

of getting a better price. 

So remember Away Mission Kids! Loot = GoRR! Load up those backpacks!

Currency in the Delta Quadrant 

There is no canonical currency in Voyager, but in any RPG there is the need for it, just to be able to 

sell loot and buy better gear. 

It would be normal for space faring races to trade with each other and in non-replicator technology 

races it would be gold, silver and other periodical metals and natural gems such as diamonds. 

In replicator level technologies the tradable item would most likely be Dilithium and other elements 

that can't be replicated. 

For the sake of the GMs sanity I've decided that most advanced races can tell the difference between 

replicated gold and gems and will consider them of less value and trade them at about 25% value. 

I looked online but found no currencies mentioned, so I'll just make on up based on what I do know. 

According to the maps, when Voyager first sets off the biggest civilisations are the Vidiian Sodality 

and the Kazon Sects. Of the two the Kazon seemed the most outgoing and the first time they are 

encountered they are on the hunt for water. Leaving aside the nonsensical fact that they can make 

warp capable starships but not water let's just say they have a currency based around water. The 

'Water Credit' or WC. 

So other local races would think of what things are worth in WCs. Even if they didn't have any to hand 

they would mentally convert the tradable items into WCs before making their barter exchanges. For 

the sake of ease of use, 1 Terran Credits = 1 Water Credit. 

The Vidiians also issue a coin called a Vidiian Crown. They are electronic and contain transactional 

information that can be read with the correct device. 

Dilithium as Currency 

Dilithium, one would imagine, would be highly sought after all over the galaxy. 

1g of Dilithium = 100 credits 

10g of Dilithium = 1,000 credits 


1kg of Dilithium = 100,000 credits 

See the Dilithium section for more on this precious metal. 

Unrefined Dilithium usually costs 100 credits per kilo. 

Currency 

1 Vidiian gold coin = 10 Vidiian credits 

1 Vidiian gold ingot = 100 Vidiian credits 

1 Kazon Paper/Coin = 1/2 credit to all others, 1 to Kazon

Tech Levels 

All items have an associated Tech Level and will generally only be available to buy from cultures that 

have that TL or higher. Items that are listed that are associated with a particular species will have the 

TL of that species.

Armor Types 

There are many different types of armor and ballistic clothing available throughout the sector, but most 

fall within three general categories: Light Armor, Medium Armor and Heavy Armor. For a character to 

be able to wear armor without suffering an inherent –5 to all rolls they must have proficiency with each 

particular level of armor (Light, Medium or Heavy). Armor reduces damage dealt by the listed Soak 

amount.

even indoors. They are really ugly creatures and are happy to hide their faces! 

The Armour has an internal tank of air that lasts for 12 hours. 

If they are outside they generally have an external tank also, that is good for 48 hours and 

an emergency rebreather system that will last another 4 hours. 

(Tank and Rebreather system add 500 credits to Armour cost)

Notes on Weapons 

Phaser 3b – Compression Phase Rifle 

As used on Interpid-class ships. (http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Compression_phaser_rifle) 

The Phaser 3b-1 has a wide beam setting 

The Phaser 3b-2 has a sniper shot mode (http://memorybeta.wikia.com/wiki/Compression_phaser_rifle) 

Phaser 3b-1 (Wide Beam) 

Damage: 3d8, Range 100m, Type: Energy Beam, Crit: 19-20x2, Cost: 3800 credits 

This phaser is scoped and has a +2 to hit when the scope is used to sight a target. Not effective in 

close combat. 

Wide Beam mode: This weapon may be fired in a cone shape from the wielder. It has a range of 25ft. 

Everyone in the cone area takes 1d8 damage unless they make a DC 15 reflex save in which case 

they take half. This uses up 5 charges of ammunition 

Phaser 3b-2 (Sniper Shot) 

Damage: 3d8, Range 100m, Type: Energy Beam, Crit: 19-20x2, Cost: 4800 credits 

This phaser is scoped (see Sniping in the Section 4.) 

1 aimed shot can be fired every Standard Action (so two in a full action). This gives a +1 bonus to hit. 

If you take a full action, the bonus is +2. 

Sniper Shot mode: This is not effective under a range of 20ft. Over a range of 20ft, the wielder make 

take a full round action to make a shot in sniper mode. 

Range now is 200m. Damage is 5d8. Critical is now 20x3. To hit modifier is +3. 

This shot uses 2 charges of ammunition.

Voyager Era Type-2 Phaser 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Type_2_phaser 

Type 2 phasers of the 24th century were capable of achieving sixteen settings, ranging from 

mild stun to disintegration. They were as follows: 

 

 

 

 

Level one: lowest setting, Light Stun, capable of stunning most base humanoids for 

approximately five minutes. According to Starfleet regulations all phasers must be stored at 

this setting. Possesses enough force to break large urns. 

Level seven: Capable of vaporizing noranium carbide alloy. 

Level ten: Kill setting, capable of killing a biological organism. 

Level sixteen: Capable of vaporizing rock to widen an opening in a lava tube partially 

blocked by rubble, or blowing large holes in walls. 

GM : (10ft range)(uses a full clip) 

In addition to variable power settings, type-2s can be set for a narrow (affecting a single target) or 

"wide" beam (affecting two or more targets over a certain area). The frequency of the beam may also 

be adjusted to make it more effective against certain types of shields and/or force fields. 

Type 2 phasers could also cause severe to deadly phaser burns 

Vidiian Harvester 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Vidiian 

Vidiians had a very sophisticated device which was a combination weapon, medical scanner and 

surgical instrument. With this device, Vidiian organ harvesters would attack a victim who the device 

indicated had healthy and Vidiian-compatible organs or tissues, and transport such bio-material from 

the victim into the transporter device used. 

Phase Pistol 2d4 (3d4+2 when stunning), range 25m, energy beam, 19-20x2 (1200 creds to sell) 

Settings : 

Medical Scanner - acts as a medical tri-corder (1 round to detect if the person hit has compatible 

organs or tissues). Also reveals the targets physical stats (STR, DEX, CON), Fort, Ref and HP 

current/total. 

Transport Tissue / Organ - two rounds. One to lock (Ranged attack), one to beam (Target makes Fort 

check against DC against 5+skill level of wielder). The organ is sent to a location previously set by the 

wielder. The target must be on less than ½ Hit Points otherwise this has no effect (non-lethal counts). 

(Note that without training or the Exotic Weapons Feat, the additional settings are unavailable.) 

Norlot Rifle / Pistol 

Norlots favour rapid fire weapons. Norlot Rifles gain +2 to hit when firing more than 4 shots. 

The feat ‘Use Norlot Projectile Weapons’ is used by all Norlot military and this gives a further +2 

bonus.

Grenades 

Throwing Them 

15ft base + 5ft for 1 STR MOD 

Second range increment gives another 15ft + 5ft per 1 STRMOD – this has a -2 to Hit (DC 7 to hit a 

square) 

There is no Third Range Increment. 

(e.g. Some with a STRMOD of + 2 could throw a grenade a maximum of 50ft) 

Grenades marked as ‘Small’ have a x2 range increment (e.g 30ft + 5ft per STR MOD). 

(e.g. Some with a STRMOD of + 2 could throw a small grenade a maximum of 80ft) 

Radius 

If you are standing in the same square as a grenade when it goes off then it is a DC 15 Reflexes save 

to take half damage. If failed, then full damage is taken. 

If you are standing in an adjacent square then it is half damage and a DC 15 Reflexes save to take ¼. 

If you are standing in the next again adjacent square then it is ¼ damage and a DC 15 Reflexes save 

to take none. 

(You also move one sq away from the grenade) 

If you are prone the DC check is against 20. 

Types of Grenade 

Incendary grenades do damage the 1 st round and again in the 2 nd unless the victim spends a full 

round action trying to put it out. This is a DC 15 on REF. +2 if you roll on the ground.6d4 damage

Stat Items 

These represent powerful technological items that improve, boost and modify stats and skills. As such 

they are costly and in general cannot be replicated unless ruled differently by the GM. 

Below is a sample list of items. In general any stat, skill or technique can be improved with an item. 

The parameters of the item and the cost can be agreed on by the players and GM.

Cyberware 

Many cultures frown upon Cybernetics unless absolutely necessary. There are many example of 

races where it has gone too far, not least of which are the Borg. However, many unaligned space 

stations and less civilised planets offer Cybernetics for sale. 

TL 9 minimum is required, but the higher the TL the better the Cybernetics. 

This is a great list of cyberware: 

http://www.mecha.com/~conkle/cyber/cyberware.html 

And can be adapted to Star Trek. 

At some point I'll go through the list and Stat Trekify it ;) 

In Cyberpunk the amount of Cyberware you could have was limited by the Empathy stat. In Star Trek 

then we'll use CHA. CHA x 10 gives the Empathy (EMP) score. The GM decides how much EMP is 

lost for each Cyberware item. Once your EMP reaches 0 you are effectively a machine. 

The higher the TL of the Cyberware the lower the EMP loss. 

EMP loss should also negatively affect CHA in some instances. 

It will be fun to beef up some NPCs though, so common stuff dealt with below:

Genetic Manipulation 

This covers all forms of genetic manipulation not already covered as part of the players species (e.g. 

Suliban). Note that most advanced cultures use genetic manipulation at birth to prevent many types of 

diseases and conditions. Also, most advanced cultures are very careful about creating 'super beings' 

as there are many instances of things going very wrong. Starfleet for instance has it very tightly 

regulated, however, many species all over the Galaxy offer Genetic Manipulation for sale that will 

work on all common humanoid types. 

GURPS Bio-Tech 

(http://www.lab.pro.br/~monteiro/flux/Gurps%204th%20Edition%20all%20Books/Biotech.pdf) is very 

detailed and I may pull stuff from it as we go on. Particularly Chapter 2. 

In Star Trek then, CON x 10 = Number of Gene Strength points (GES). When you go over your GES 

limit then that's the end as your body breaks up into bits. The higher the TL of the Genetic 

Engineering the less GES the procedure costs. 

It will be fun to beef up some NPCs though, so common stuff dealt with below:

9. Starships 

The four basic templates allow you to custom design a ship for almost any species. 

Specific designs (the Human NX type, Andorian Kumari, Vulcan D’Kyr etc) are listed in detail following 

the templates. In order to create a ship from the templates follow these easy steps: 

- Choose your ship type (shuttlecraft, freighter, cruiser, heavy cruiser) 

- Choose style of Primary Weapons Systems 

- Choose style of Secondary Weapons Systems (if available) 

- Choose Support Systems (as available) 

- Determine crew size and homeworld, exact size of ship (smaller ships have fewer 

systems, larger ships have more systems) 

- Make sure that your systems energy cost doesn’t exceed you reactor s energy 

capabilities! A ship can only have one reactor and one backup power supply! 

- These rules are left a little vague intentionally; there have been hundreds of ships on screen in the 

Star Trek Universe and this allows Game Masters and Players to be creative with ship design.

SHIPS POWER 

Since there are no rules on this here, I’ll write some. As he says 

‘Make sure that your systems energy cost doesn’t exceed you reactor s energy capabilities! A ship 

can only have one reactor and one backup power supply!’ 

‘ 

..and yet most of the ships have total energy cost exceeding the total reactor output then it must be 

that a balancing act is required e.g. you can’t pelt along at full warp and have your sensors on full 

blast at the same time… 

Still, I like the bolt on, plug and play sort of thing that goes on in STO, so installing new warp engines 

in order to put new stuff in seems like a good idea to me. So a sort of ‘slot’ based ship sheet might be 

in order, with power and stuff calculated in it. Hmm! I think a super duper sort of character sheet for 

space ships is in order. 

Starfleet ships use Dilithium as their fuel source. As an example, the Aeroshuttle has a Reactor 

Output of 28 and a Total Energy Cost of 20. So until it fits shields it can scoot around at full warp with 

no problems. 

Each day total up the energy used. By default a ship will always have Hull Plating, Life Support, 

Gravity Plating, Comms, Sensors, Computer Core, and Deflectors on, but these can be switched off to 

save energy. Flying at Warp, or having the shields on will use more for that day (or fraction). 

Subtract the energy used from you total grams of Dilithium. 

So, if the AS running at full warp will burn 20g of DL. 

Other things that cost DL are Transporting and Replicating. Each human sized object transported 

costs 1g of DL. Every 10kg replicated costs 1g DL. 

http://en.memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Dilithium

Alternative Rules for Energy Use 

We've never actually used the rules above so I am going to try something simpler. A spaceship has a 

maximum energy capacity, yes, which is the limit of everything that can be installed. 

It then has three energy usage numbers, the Dilithium usage in minimum mode, active but stationary 

and at warp (per 1 warp speed). 

Dilithium then becomes the 'gold' for ships. 

This is set up to be simple. If the players want something more complicated then go for it. But for now 

just use this table. (Numbers are in 'grams of Dilithium per day') 

Ship Size Min Rest Warp 

Shuttlecraft 0.1 0.5 1 

Freighter 0.5 2 4 

Light Cruiser/Raider 1 4 8 

Heavy Cruiser 2 8 16 

Explorer 1.5 6 12 

Each human sized object transported costs 1g of DL. 

Every 10kg replicated costs 1g DL. 

Other actions may cost grams of DL as the GM decides.

Starship Systems Descriptions 

This section entails a brief description of the different combat and non-combat systems found on 

a Starship and the basics of how they operate. 

Starship Support Systems 

Subspace Communications 

By transmitting information through subspace rather than normal space, subspace communications 

permit the sending of data and messages across interstellar distances faster than the speed of light, 

proving it much more practical than conventional radio. 

Because messages sent over subspace travel so much faster than the speed of light, they are the 

basis for interstellar communication. Starships rarely even monitor frequencies that travel at the 

speed of light or slower. Subspace communications have a varying degree of band frequencies, from 

upper (or high-band) to lower. 

Earth developed subspace communication in 2138. Subspace amplifiers are required in order to 

maintain real-time contact between Earth and Earth Starfleet vessels over long distances. Contact 

with these amplifiers is maintained with a subspace antenna. If this antenna is damaged, a starship is 

only capable of short-range communication. 

Subspace Communications Range (in light years) 

Short Range: 2 Light Year 

Mid-Range: 15 Light Years 

Long-Range: 40 Light Years 

* For unlimited range there must be a subspace amplifier every 40 light years 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Subspace_communication 

System Energy Cost Range Price TL Repair DC 

Communications - Short Range 1 2 LY 21,000 9 15 

Communications - Medium Range 2 15 LY 71,000 10 17 

Communications - Long Range 3 40 LY 104,000 11 20 

So even short range subspace comms fits easily within any solar system.

Life Support 

Life support systems are the most crucial aboard any space vehicle. They typically include 

temperature and climate control, waste processing, radiation shielding, atmosphere recycling and 

bacterial and viral filtering systems. 

Life support can be shut down in order to divert its energy resources to other systems. 

Once life support is shut down it takes an average of 60 minutes for the crew of a Starship to begin to 

feel adverse effects. 

Failure of Life Support systems can be fatal to a crew. 

Amount of time without Life Support Adverse Effects

Gravity Plating 

The artificial gravity generator is a component of most starships in the mid-22nd century. 

The artificial gravity generator changes the environment of a starship from zero gravity to artificial 

gravity, using the vessel's gravity plating. Gravity plating is a collection of plates used to simulate a 

gravity environment on starships. Gravity plating can be lined along a ships exterior hull, or across the 

interior deck plates. 

A subsystem of Gravity Plating is inertial dampers. They are a system used on almost all starships to 

counter the effects of rapid acceleration/deceleration of a vessel by sustaining and absorbing the 

natural inertia of a vessel as it either moves through space or if it is under attack from another vessel. 

If a starship were to jump to warp speed without using inertial dampers, the members of the crew 

would almost certainly die as the rapid acceleration would throw them back in to the consoles and 

rear walls killing them instantly. Conversely, they would also be killed if a ship were to come out of 

warp but in this instance the crew would be thrown forward.

Hull Plating 

Polarized hull plating is a defensive technology. In a battle situation, electromagnetic power can be 

applied to the hull materials, making them several orders of magnitude harder. This is the only 

defensive technology is used on starships of cultures that have not yet developed shield technology. 

Unlike shields, polarization cannot be amplified to reinforce a specific section. The amount of 

polarization on the forward sections of the ship is the equal on the aft. 

Hull plating on any ship has a 100-point scale. What varies from ship to ship (and what determines 

the strength of a ship’s hull plating) is it’s Damage Reduction (DR). 

Whenever a ship takes damage with active hull plating first subtract the DR number from the damage 

roll and then subtract the result from the Hull Plating 100-point scale. When the scale reaches 0, it 

indicates that Hull Plating is offline and needs a Repair check (TN 20) in order to be brought back 

online (2 hour repair time). Once Hull Plating is offline all damage done gets subtracted directly from a 

ship’s Hull Point with no damage reduction. Note that Hull Plating Systems can have from DR 0 to DR 

20. 

For example: 

A Klingon Raptor fires a Disruptor (6d10 damage) at an NX Class and rolls 47 points of 

damage. The NX Class has DR 15 and Hull Plating is at 29. The NX Class takes 32 

(47 – 15 = 32) points of damage to its Hull Plating taking it offline since Hull Plating is 

now at or below zero. The next attack deals 54 points of damage that is taken directly 

out of the NX Class’ Hull Points leaving it with 446 Hull Points (500 – 54 = 446).

Deflector Control 

The navigational deflector dish is a component of many starships, and is used to deflect 

space debris, asteroids, microscopic particles and other objects that might collide with the 

ship. At warp speed the deflector is virtually indispensable for most starships as even the 

minutest particle can cause serious damage to a ship when it is traveling at supra-light 

velocities. If the Deflector Dish goes off line warp speed will cause the ship to become 

destroyed within 1d4 minutes of travel due to micrometeorite collisions. Furthermore, 

when the deflector dish is offline a ship cannot travel faster than half-impulse.

Sensors 

The term sensor is used to refer to any device that is used to scan, record, or otherwise 

observe any aspect of an environment surrounding a starship, station, or person. This 

could be as simple a device as a manual camera or light sensor, or as complicated as the 

many devices designed to scan the matter and energies of subspace, space, time and 

stellar bodies that make up all of existence. 

There are many ways to mask a sensor scan, sensor screens are the most commonly used. 

You can also mask a sensor scan with certain materials, or radiations. Successful sensor 

use is determined by a Computer Use skill check. 

[GM] If you do not have the relevant proficiency with the sensor you are using then there is a -4 

penalty to the roll. If you have advanced training with the sensor then +4 to the roll. 

(40 AU = 0.0006325 LY, 80 AU = 0.001265001, 200 AU = 0.003162501) 

(1 LY = 63,241 AU) 

All sensor data can be displayed on the main viewscreen. 

Multiphasic Scanning 

(http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Multiphasic_scan). 

A multiphasic scan, or multiphasic sweep, is a method whereby a vessel's sensors could be 

reconfigured to penetrate areas of intense interference where conventional scanning 

methods would prove impractical. (-4 to Computer Use while peforming these scans) 

Subspace differential pulse 

http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Subspace_differential_pulse 

Some scanners may be used to emit subspace pulses. These include Electromagnetic, Electron 

Resonance, Gamma Ray, Neutron Densitometry, Magnetron and Gravimetric scanners. 

Inverse tachyon pulse 

http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Inverse_tachyon_pulse 

Some scanners may be used to emit tachyon pulses. These include Electromagnetic, Electron 

Resonance, Gamma Ray, Neutron Densitometry, Magnetron and Gravimetric scanners. This is done 

via the main navigational deflector.

Transporters 

The transporter is a subspace device capable of almost instantaneously moving an object from one 

location to another. Transporters are able to dematerialize, transmit and reassemble an object. The 

act of transporting is often referred to as "beaming." 

Transporter rooms usually consist of a transporter console, a transporter platform with an overhead 

molecular imaging scanner, primary energizing coils and phase transition coils. 

A pattern buffer with a biofilter is located on the deck below the room. The outer hull of a starship 

incorporated a number of emitter pads for the transporter beam. 

Transporters work on the quantum level and employ Heisenberg compensators to enable secure 

transport of life forms. Biofilter built into the transporter systems prevent dangerous microorganisms 

from boarding the ship. 

Transporters have a range of 10 to 50 kilometers. Each transporter unit’s range must be 

determined during the design phase. Not all species have transporter technology. 

GM note - Not according to Memory Alpha – the ranges are a lot longer by the time of Voyager. 

Starships have a range of 40,000km and shuttles 20,000km.

Grappler 

The grappler was a metallic cable with claws on the end that could be launched by a starship to 

grapple objects in space. The grapplers utilized a magnetic lock device to attach to objects. The more 

effective tractor beam eventually supercedes this device although some species maintained the use 

of grapplers well into the 2160s. Grapplers can be extended to 5 kilometers.

Tractor Beam 

A tractor beam is an attenuated linear graviton beam used by starships and space stations 

to control the movement of external objects. The beam places spatial stresses on the 

object in specific areas allowing the ship using the tractor beam to hold the object in a 

fixed location or alter its position or trajectory. 

Tractor beams are generally only used at sub-warp velocities. To safely tow a vessel at 

warp speed, the target vessel’s engines must be deactivated to avoid shearing forces 

against both the towing and towed vessels. Using a tractor beam can be done at warp 

speed only if both vessels' speeds are exactly matched. Tractor beams have a range of 18 

kilometers.

Warp Drive 

Warp drive is a technology that allows space travel at faster-than-light speeds. It does this 

by generating warp fields to form a subspace bubble that envelops the starship, distorting 

the local space-time continuum and moving the starship at velocities that exceed the 

speed of light. These velocities are referred to as warp factors. 

Warp Drive costs 8 energy points to have online plus an increasing amount of energy the 

faster the starship travels. See the ‘Warp Speed and Energy Costs’ table below for 

specifics. The speed of light is commonly referred to as C (C = 1 billion kph).

7 C 49 343 

8 C 64 512 

9 C 89 729 

10 C 100 1000

Determining Warp Factor as relative to actual speed is a relatively straightforward scale that follows 

the formula: 

V = c • WF³ 

Where V = Velocity of the vessel, c = the velocity of light, and WF = the warp factor. 

This scale has the advantage of simplicity; the velocity in multiples of light speed at any given warp 

factor is that number cubed. The energy cost of travelling at a particular Warp Factor is that Warp 

Factor squared plus 8 points of energy to keep the ships warp drive online. 

Starships of the 22nd century tend to top out at approximately Warp Factor 6.8, with the 

average being approximately Warp Factor 5 with many ships still not surpassing Warp 

Factor 2.5. 

[GM]- The above is too complicated for me. And how would a ship ever go above warp 4 with those 

rules? I've added a table at the start that covers Dilithium usage. Energy costs below cover the online

Shields 

Shields operate by creating a layer of energetic distortion containing a high concentration of gravitons 

around the object (ship, city, etc.) to be protected. Shield energies can be emitted from a localized 

antenna or "dish" (such as a ship's navigational deflector), or 

from a network of "grid" emitters laid out on the object's surface (such as a ship's hull). 

Neither matter nor highly concentrated energy (i.e., weapons fire) can normally penetrate 

a shield without first matching the exact shield frequency. Warships match their own 

shield and weapon frequencies so their shielding does not stop them from defending 

themselves. Continuous or extremely powerful energy discharges, can, however, 

progressively dissipate the integrity of a shield to the point of failure. 

Normally transporters are not capable of penetrating shields. Shields on board a starship 

have one other weakness that can be exploited by a knowledgeable and highly skilled 

opponent. The area directly aft of a ship's impulse engines is weaker than the rest of the 

shield envelope. This allows the ship's impulse "exhaust" to exit the shield rather than 

being trapped inside it. It takes time to activate a deflector shield. 

A starship needs exactly 10 seconds (one round) to lower or raise its shields. 

Shields work as a defensive factor by absorbing up to a certain amount of damage before 

going off line. Only Heavy Cruisers have Shield capability in the 22nd century up to 

2165. They will be fitted on to Explorer vessels at that time as well. Note that a starship 

can have 50 to 250 Shield Points. 

If a ship has 200 Shield Points, an opposing ship must inflict 200 points of damage (or if 

your lucky roll 76-80 on a Critical Hit) to take shields offline. Once a ship’s Shield 

Points have been reduced to zero they are offline and need a Repair check (TN 20) in 

order to be brought back online (2 hour repair time).

Computer Core 

A starship’s Computer Core has the ability to run (or "host") multiple operating systems 

and thereby operate not as a single computer but as a number of virtual machines. In this 

role, the single Computer Core (and its mainframe cluster group) can replace dozens or 

even hundreds of smaller servers, reducing management and administrative costs while 

providing greatly improved scalability and reliability. 

Computer Cores run a group of smaller mainframes as cluster groups. Mainframes run at 

about 17,801 MIPS. A standard starship Computer Core joins up to 32 of these systems, 

making them behave like a single, logical computing facility of as much as 221,248 

MIPS. 

The CPU speed of a Computer Core has historically been measured in millions of 

instructions per second (MIPS). MIPS have been used as an easy comparative rating of 

the speed and capacity of Computer Cores.

Impulse 

The impulse drive is a propulsion system used for sub-light speeds. In starships the impulse drive is 

essentially an augmented fusion rocket, usually consisting of a fusion reactor, an acceleratorgenerator, 

a driver coil assembly and a vectored thrust nozzle to direct the plasma exhaust. The 

fusion reaction generates highly energized plasma. This plasma, ("electro-plasma") can be employed 

for propulsion. The accelerated plasma is passed through the driver coils, thereby generating a 

subspace field that improves the propulsive effect. 

In the 22nd century full impulse is the equivalent to one-third the speed of light (i.e. 

34,300,000 kph). 

Larger ships need larger impulse engines.

Thruster Systems 

Thrusters were propulsion devices used aboard starships that generated very little speed, but were 

useful in various situations. It was possible to use manoeuvring thrusters to alter a ship's course, to 

rotate about an axis, or to move short, precise distances without the use of impulse drive. It was 

possible to use acceleration thrusters to increase the speed of a ship. Starship personnel could 

manually use thrusters through thruster control. 

Thruster top speed is approximately 1,000kph minus 100 kph for every size class above 

Small so that Medium top speed is 900 kph, Large is 800 kph, Huge is 700 kph etc.

Stealth Systems 

Stealth is a form of technology used to render starships totally, or at least less, detectable to sensors. 

Many space-faring civilizations use varying forms of stealth technology. Masking circuitry is a stealth 

technology used aboard warships of the Romulans, Suliban Cabal and Xyrillians to minimize their 

sensor signature. The power consumptions of stealth technology are high, meaning weapons and 

shields cannot be used while a cloak is on. 

Interactions between electromagnetic radiation and ionized gas have been extensively studied for a 

variety of purposes, including the possible concealment of starships from sensors. Plasma stealth is a 

process that uses ionized gas to reduce the sensor image of a ship. While it is possible to reduce a 

starships sensor image, wrapping the frame in plasma may possibly induce a total ‘invisibility’ by 

allowing visible light (as well as other spectrum radiations) to be dispersed by the ionized plasma. 

These developments are still in the testing mode throughout the 22nd century. 

Larger ships need larger systems.

Weapons Systems 

(Apparently Space Combat is possible (but not easy!) at warp speed : 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8BYyBLsCUk ) 

STO weapons : http://sto.gamepedia.com/Ship_Weapon 

If the occasion ever arises that starship weaponry is used against people, personal sized vehicles or 

equipment all damage is multiplied by 100. 

Critical hits occur on a natural roll of “20” and result in double damage and system specific damage. 

Refer to the Starship Critical Damage Table. 

Weapon Strength and Location 

Weapons generally fall into two main categories : Energy and Projectile. 

Note that Torpedoes may be fired from any torpedo tube as long as it is if high enough TL and an the 

correct Tube would have cost less than the one being used. 

Projectile Weapons generally can be installed in two types : Beam and Cannon 

Beam can be in two categories : Array and Dual Bank 

Array : This is your typical way of aiming and firing weapons. They can be installed fore, aft, port and 

starboard with a 250 degree firing arc. Since they ship has to be manoeuvred if the array is not in 

position careful consideration must be given to the weapons position. 

Dual Bank : This installation type has the following effect : 

Weapon Damage : x2 

Energy Cost : x2 

Price : x2 

Arc of Fire : 90 degrees 

To Hit modifier : -2 

Cannon can be installed in seven categories : Turret, Single, Single Heavy, Dual, Dual Heavy, Quad 

and Wing. 

Single : This is the most basic installation of a given cannon style weapon. This style of mount is 

usual on smaller craft and is foreword facing. They can be installed fore, aft, port and starboard with a 

180 degree firing arc. 

Turret : To install the weapon in a turret, first a turret must be installed (seems obvious). This 

increases the base price by x1.5. If mounted top of bottom the the turret has a 360 degree firing arc. 

This make targeting and firing the weapon easier, giving a +2 to hit. 

Single Heavy: This installation type has the following effect : 



Price : x2 



Dual: This installation type has the following effect : 

Weapon Damage : x2


Price : x2 



Dual Heavy: This installation type has the following effect :

Quad: This installation type has the following effect :

Range :

So, '5'= 5000km. 

Can shoot at 2x and 3x increments - e.g. 10,000km and 15,000km 

A range 12 weapon would be 12,000, 24,000 and 36,000km 

-2 for inc, -4 the next 

Firing at close range (under 1 km) gives a +4 to hit 

Micro Weapons 

Any weapon can be made at quarter size. Quarter the damage, the range and the energy cost, but 

only half the cost price. Missiles and other ammunition are also quarter size and may be replicated. 

Range 

Since this is in space there is effectively no limit to the range of a weapon. The numbers that are 

given are for the Range Band. For each Range Band after the first the attack rolls get a -2 modifier. 

Range is in Kilometres unless otherwise stated. 

Transporters as Weapons 

If an enemy has no shields then grenades, bombs etc can be transported onto the enemy ship. Use 

the rules under the Transporter skill section, then roll for damage of the devices when they arrive. 

Point Defence Systems 

Slower moving weapons such as concussion missiles can be shot down by any weapon that has 

been converted to act as point defence. This can be done to any weapon system at an addition of 

10% of the base cost.

Rail Gun 

A Rail Gun is a type of Magnetic Accelerator Gun (MAG) that utilizes an electromagnetic force to 

propel an electrically conductive projectile that is initially part of the current path. Sometimes they also 

use a movable armature connecting the rails. The current flowing through the rails sets up a magnetic 

field between them and through the projectile perpendicularly to the current in it. This results in the 

rails and the projectile pushing each other and in the acceleration of the projectile along the rails.

Plasma Turret 

Plasma cannons were the precursors to phase cannons. In high-power mechanics, plasma (also 

known as "Warp Plasma" or "Drive Plasma") is a super-energized plasma gas used to transfer energy 

from a central power source using magnetic conduit transfer. In matter/antimatter reactions, Dilithium 

controls the amount of power generated in the reaction chamber, which produces a steady stream of 

plasma that may be released in controlled bursts as an offensive medium.

Phase Cannons 

A phase cannon is a phase-modulated energy weapon, a type of particle weapon that serves as a 

successor to plasma cannons. The phase cannon is rated for a maximum power output of 500 gigjoules. 

The cannons of NX class starships were mounted on retractable turrets that extended from the 

ship's hull when deployed and rotated as they were being targeted. Phase cannons emit a 

concentrated beam of energy that can be set at different yields.

Disruptors 

A disruptor cannon is a directed energy weapon commonly used aboard starships of many different 

species. Disruptor weapons generally carry more energy then standard phase weapons but lack in 

accuracy and fast discharge. The Disruptor uses slow nadions rather than rapid nadions in generating 

the energy beam. This gives the disruptor considerably lower energy conversion efficiency than phase 

weaponry. This is partially offset by a moderate reduction in the size of the hardware required for the 

weapon itself - the space freed up by this allows a higher power weapon to be installed in the same 

space.

Spatial Nuclear Torpedoes 

Spatial Nuclear Torpedoes are projectiles carried by starships. Spatial Nuclear Torpedoes are selfpropelled 

nuclear warheads. The yield of these weapons is approximately a 150-kiloton warhead. The 

torpedo is usually guided by a guidance system in the starship it was fired from.

Antimatter Torpedoes 

Antimatter torpedoes are a type of photonic weapon, a torpedo equipped with antimatter warheads 

and designed for use aboard starships. The Antimatter Torpedo is considered more sophisticated than 

the Spatial Torpedo, having a greater range than the spatial torpedo and a variable yield (10 – 280 

kilotons/1d4 – 6d12). Their variable yield was described by Malcolm Reed as being able to "knock the 

com array off a Shuttlepod without scratching the hull, or they can put a three-kilometer crater into an 

asteroid." It takes two rounds to adjust the yield of an Antimatter Torpedo. 

(Adjust the damage done down by however many d12s are required)

Photon Torpedoes 


A more advanced and powerful version of an Antimatter Torpedo, the warhead of the 

Photon Torpedo comprises a maximum of 1.5 kilos of antimatter and 1.5 kilos of matter. 

These are divided into many thousands of small pellets suspended in a magnetic field. 

Truly a fire and forget weapon, included in the torpedo are target acquisition, guidance 

and detonation assemblies. Unfortunately a Photon Torpedo does not allow for a variable 

yield and only fires at 400 kilotons.

USS Voyager was equipped with type-6 photon torpedoes. They were not in use before Voyager was 

launched in 2371. Some of these torpedoes had a yield of 25 isotons. A class-6 warhead in this type 

of torpedo had the explosive yield of 200 isotons. These torpedoes had an effective range of 

approximately eight million kilometers. The class-6 torpedoes were not capable of creating tears into 

subspace. 

The Voyager also carried class-9 and class-10 photon torpedoes. Qatai believed that the explosive 

charge of one class-9 torpedo could have destroyed the gigantic "telepathic pitcher plant" bioplasmic 

organism, if it was detonated deep within its digestive track. The class-10 torpedoes could be armed 

with even more powerful high yield warheads.

MOVEMENT 

So, we have Warp Speed and Impulse. 

WARP SPEED 

Warp speed is here: 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Warp_factor 

The chart on this page works out the various warp speed based on data from the series. 

This simple chart helps: (Using the Next Gen one which is faster)

10 ∞ ∞ 0 

So, the Aeroshuttle for instance with a max warp speed of 3, travels 0.107 light years per day. So it 

would take it about 10 days to travel 1 light year. 

I need to check if combat can take place in warp, but I don't think so. I think it may be possible to 'pull' 

someone out of warp. You can follow peoples warp trails. 

(sun to pluto is 6 light hours) 

IMPULSE 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Impulse_drive 

I guess it's like a 0.5 warp speed. 

Let's say one 'Space Turn' is a minute. 

1 minute = 0.5 LY travelled. Travel 1/8 an AU (18.75 million KM) 

So a 'Space Turn' covers about 19m km at Full Impulse

The distance to the moon is a mere 384,400km 

The sun is 149,600,000 km away from Earth (1 AU) 

On our grid then, the moon and Earth would be on the same square, 

The sun would be 75 squares away. 

(The sun is 1,391,684 km wide by the way, so it would still fit into one square) 

It would take then, about 8 minutes to get from the Earth to the sun at full impulse. (1 AU) 

The sun is 57,910,000 km away from Mercury. 28 squares 

Nah this is perhaps a bit too small a scale for chasing around on then, a 'zoomed out' scale would be 

this: 

One space turn = 2 minutes. Sun to Earth is now 37 squares, Sun to Mercury is 14 squares. Will have 

to zoom out for bigger distances, out to gas giants etc. 

Make a table for speed vs scale etc 

So far this is just if everyone is moving at the same speed (full impulse, 0.5 warp).

Turning at Warp 

http://scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/54999/how-tightly-can-a-starship-turn-while-at-warp 

The TNG Technical Manual pages 95 and 96, state that changes in direction can be 

accomplished by varying the timing of the injectors, creating some differences in the warp 

fields produced by each nacelle. But also states that a loss of one or both nacelles at warp 

would tear the ship apart. Similar to turning a ship with two propellers by making one go 

faster than the other, it puts enormous strain on the hull. This suggests a limit to the warp 

turn speed. 

Voyager's turning circle was clearly larger than the distance between two vacuoles, that's 

why the ship had to stop and turn. Turning at warp is not impossible, but not recommended. 

"When possible try to maintain a linear trajectory". Due to the speed and energy involved 

any unbalanced forces could be catastrophic. "faster than light, no left or right" is a good 

rule of thumb, though there are exceptions. 

(modify for size of ship and various other things) 

Opinions seem to vary from episode to episode, but yes it can be done.

Warping in solar systems 

http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/inconsistencies/treknology-power.htm 

It's harder to warp the closer to an astral body you are. Warping in deep space is no challenge to a 

Pilot of at least Rank 1. 

The closer to an astral body and the larger it is, the harder it is to warp. Make a DC 10 Pilot check. If 

you fail you do not go to Warp and it takes 20 rounds minus the Pilots skill level in Plot Course to try 

again. A critical fail may result in damage to the ship (50% chance of a roll on Critical Damage Table)

Stern Chases 

This is a common feature of space combat. A ship flees and another gives chase. Now, if the fleeing 

ship is faster then they get away. If the following ship is faster then it is a stern chase. 

The pursuer needs to get into weapon range, which it can do at warp (See Fighting at Warp Speed) 

below. Or they both drop out of warp and regular space combat occurs. 

The fleeing ship may opt to drop in and out of warp. When the fleeing ship drops out of warp 

unexpectedly the pursuer has a chance to react if they wish to stick to the fleeing ship like glue. 

Under normal circumstances it is a DC 10 Pilot skill roll to stay within whatever range the pursuer 

desires with the following modifiers. 

Modifier 

Add to DC 

+1 Warp Speed beyond 2 +1 

Fleeing vessel is Shuttle sized +2 

Perusing vessel is Shuttle sized -2 

Failure means that the pursuer either over or undershoots, then must either use a Plot Course to go 

into warp again or use Impulse to close the gap. 

The over/under shoot is 1 minute away (1 space turn) at Full Impulse per point that the roll failed.

COMBAT 

Starship Combat is handled similarly to regular combat. 

One round is six seconds. You get a move action and a combat action. 

Initiative = Pilot Skill plus mods + d20 

+2 for Small 

+1 for Medium 

-1 for Large+ 

Listed below are the differences and their particulars. 

Starship Defense = Ship’s Defense Rating + Pilot’s Dexterity Modifier 

A Pilot must make a successful Pilot Check (TN 17 + 1 per enemy ships actively involved in combat 

with the pilot’s ship) each round of combat to maintain their Dexterity bonus to their Starship’s 

Defense score. 

Starship Attack Bonus = Tactical Officer’s Attack Bonus (Base Attack Bonus) + Weapon Skill 

Starship Attacks per Round = Tactical Officer’s Attacks per Round 

So, if you have multiple weapons and multiple TOs then you can make many attacks. Also, if a TO 

has two attacks this is just the same as using any other weapon. A TO ‘mans’ a weapon just as if he 

were holding a phaser rifle. Remember that some weapons (Dual Cannons for example) have more 

than one attack so potentially a weapon can be fire many times in a single round. 

If the Starship has more than one weapon and more than one TO then this counts as a whole 

separate attack, just as if this was another PC armed with another phaser. 

Starship Movement Starship movement has a ratio of Movement Rate 1 = 1” = 1 square on a grid. 

Moving in Combat 

If you are space, you may move up to the total movement points for your ship. If you are in 

atmosphere then move that amount. As long as it’s a straight line then its fine. Use a grid map if 

desired to measure relative distances between combatants. 

Turning 

Each turn counts as one inch of movement per 45° of the turn. Starships can attack before, 

during or after movement. 

To make a successful turn during combat a Pilot must make a successful Pilot Check (TN 18 + 1 per 

45° turn) to successfully complete the manoeuvre. If the Pilot fails their Pilot Check they only turn 45°. 

On a roll of “1” a Pilot stalls his engines for 1d4 rounds.

While I think it's more realistic to have space combat happening over areas of millions of miles, in the 

series they are always right on top of each other, so ships must occupy the same square (on a system 

wide map) to engage in combat. 

This means that a fast ship with a long range weapon will always win since it can always stay just far 

enough away. Still, I guess that's realistic. 

(And so, spotting them with your sensors as soon as possible is wise!) 

A slower ship could try and manoeuvre to get its weapons in range. This will be dependent on the 

weapons being used. 

Let's say a pilot skill roll DC 10 + the range of the enemy weapon - the range of yours 

ATTACK 

Starship Attack Bonus = Tactical Officer’s Attack Bonus (Base Attack Bonus) + Weapon Skill + misc 

mods + d20 

An attack roll is against the enemies Defence, (which is the equivalent of AC). 

To hit a specific location, this gives +4 to defence.(Only possible with some kind of targeting sensor or 

system.) 

If you get a critical hit, then roll again. If this is also a hit then the critical is confirmed. Damage is 

doubled. 

TAKE DAMAGE 

The weapon damage is rolled. First take away shields, then hull plating DR is there is any, then Hull 

Plating and then Hull. 

Once Hull reaches 50, speed is halved 

Once Hull reaches 25, speed is 1/4. d3 systems damaged (Consoles exploding etc!) 

Once Hull reaches 10, speed is 0. d3 further systems damaged. 

Once Hull reaches 0, the ship is just a lifeless hulk. All systems damaged . 

Once Hull reaches -20, the ship breaks up into chunks 

What this means to the ship: 

At Hull 50, after the combat, the ship can be at full speed after a DC 20 Repair check on the Engines 

and Reactor. 

At Hull 25 and below the Engines and Reactor will need parts replaced and a full overall to be fully 

functional again. See ‘Repairs’ below. 

All damaged systems will need to be repaired. See ‘Repairs’ below. 

Rules on choosing what system is damaged.

Damaged Systems 

Roll a d100 on the following chart: 

Roll Damage Type Notes 

10-30 Offline Can bring back online quickly. 

31-50 Lightly Damaged. Needs no spare parts. 

51-65 Heavily Damaged Needs spare parts 

66-75 Destroyed Only good for spare parts / scrap 

76-90 Overload Make a Repair DC on the item. If you make the check it is 

Offline only. If you fail the DC then Lightly Damaged. Make 

the roll and increase the damage on each failure until the 

check is made or the item is destroyed 

91-95 On Fire Needs to be extinguished by some means or item is 

destroyed Lightly damaged in d3 turns, heavily in d6 and 

destroyed in a further d6. There is a 75% chance the fire will 

spread to a nearby system. 

96-00 Explodes System is destroyed and lightly damages d3 nearby 

systems. 

See the Repairs section for more details on fixing the damage. 

Need to write up what happens when certain systems go down (use the critical table as a guide)

Fighting at Warp Speed 

In Star Trek : Into the Darkness there is a warp batttle : 

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ma8-WRh3IGM) which is just gibberish if you think about the 

physics of it. 

It is discussed on internet forums a lot how a light based weapon could possibly travel faster than 

light. 

But why not eh? Star Trek is full of stuff like this so high-speed warp battles - why not? If a space 

vessel can detect a target and has a higher warp speed then there is no reason why it can't engage it 

in combat. Normal rules would apply. 

In fact, the victim is probably better off dropping out of warp if it doesn't have weapons of sufficient 

range to fire back, and seeking refuge in a planet's atmosphere or at least being more manoeuvrable. 

Let's say that targets are +2 to hit while at warp as manoeuvring is much harder at speed.

Repairs 

Your spaceship has been in a battle and needs repaired. 

Shields regenerate at speeds specified in their description. 

Hull Plating needs a DC20 Repair skill check made. It then takes 2 hours to bring back online. 

For every other system there are four levels of need of repair: 

Offline – Needs a small bit of tinkering and a restart 

Light Damage – Can be repaired. Needs no spare parts. 

Heavy Damage – Can be repaired. Needs some spare parts. 

Destroyed – Beyond repair but can be salvaged for spare parts / scrap metal. 

Making a Repair 

The item to be repaired on the ship has a base Repair DC. 

If the item is offline then roll the target DC. If the roll succeeds then the item is back online and fully 

functional after 60-Repair Skill minutes (to a minimum of one minute). 

For light / heavy damage type, apply the following modifiers to the DC check. 

Issue DC mod Notes 

Ship size - Tiny 0 

Ship size - Small 0 

Ship size - Medium +1 Double repair time 

Ship size - Large +2 Triple repair time 

Need spare parts but have none +10 System becomes only semi functional 

Have more or less the right +5 

parts if parts are required. 

Rushing +5 Repair to be carried out in half the time 

Extra pair of hands -2 Reduced repair time (see below) 

Have exactly the right spare 

parts 

-2 Reduce the repair time by 25% 

The time it takes to make the repair (in hours) is TL of system + Repair DC of system - Repair Skill of 

the Technician(s) assigned. This cannot be less than one hour. 

On a success the repair is made in the time allotted. 

On a failed roll of 1-5 below the target DC the system is functional, but only for d3 days before it goes 

offline again and needs another repair roll. 

On a failed roll of 6-10 the repair simply does not work. A second roll is required, but no extra spare 

parts are needed. 

On a failed roll of 11-15 the repair simply does not work. A second roll is required, and extra spare 

parts are needed. 

On a failed roll of 15+ you botch the job so badly the system moves down one level of damage.

Bringing Warp Drive / Reactors back online 

Warp Drive and Reactors are a special case. You build up the warp capacity of the star ship one Warp 

Speed band at a time. 

In this case make the Repair roll against the Target DC of the Warp Drive or Reactor (whichever is 

highest) and on a success the Spaceship gains one Warp Speed band. 

The time taken is worked out in the table below: 

Issue 

Ship size - Tiny 

Ship size - Small 

Ship size - Medium 

Ship size - Large 

Time 

1 hour 

1 hour 

2 hours 

3 hours 

This time may be halved by adding +5 to the DC. 

Others may assist the roll as normal. 

Successes and fails are handled as above. 

Not quite got the right parts 

With a replicator spare parts may be made as required. However bear in mind that only a Starfleet 

replicator can replicate Starfleet parts. 

Any alien spare parts required would first have to be programmed into the replicator (See the 

Replicator Use skill). 

Also remember that replicator use also has a cost in Dilithium. 

If you have more or less the right sort of parts on hand though, then this is only a +5 to the roll, rather 

than a +10. 

Other systems may be cannibalised for parts.

In starship classification, shuttlecraft, or shuttles, are auxiliary craft typically attached to a starship or a 

Starbase. 

Most shuttles are short-range vessels, possessing only impulse drive or a limited warp capability. 

Utilization of shuttlecraft is common for most spacefaring civilizations, especially for situations where 

the transporter cannot be used for landings, or where such technology does not yet exist.

Danube Class Runabout 

In starship classification, freighters are starship types designed to carry cargo or to carry passengers. 

Often referred to as a runabout when not utilized as a transport or cargo vessel, this is the designation 

of a type of vessel smaller than a starship but larger than a shuttlecraft. Runabouts are equipped with 

limited weapons and drive systems, but offer additional living space and have a larger operational 

range compared to shuttles, and are capable of speeds up to warp 3. Runabouts are typically 

assigned to space stations as auxiliary craft. This type of starship is also commonly utilized as a Scout 

when part of a larger combat fleet. The most noticeable feature of cargo freighters is their large cargo 

bays. Furthermore, they are usually equipped with light armament to defend against pirates and 

oncoming asteroids.

A Maquis Raider. 

The Raider is a type of light starship designed and commonly used by fringe groups as well as a 

common Pirating vessel. They come in varying sizes although they tend to keep towards the lower 

end of Medium size. 

The smaller variants have a small cockpit with seating for two, and a cargo area in the aft section. The 

larger versions have a separate and much more spacious cockpit which holds four stations, and 

larger crew facilities in the aft sections. 

Raider starships are usually in use for a long period of time and tend to be under constant repair. 

Many are known to be in use for several decades by using rebuilt engines and system replacement as 

opposed to salvaging the ship for parts and rebuilding.

The term Heavy Cruiser is sometimes used synonymously with Battleship. In reference to 

starship classification, Battleships are a type of large and powerful Heavy Cruiser. In 

traditional terms, Battleships are the most powerfully armed and most heavily armored 

warships of their era. It is likely that the definition is true among starships, although 

standards may vary by species and technological level. 

Heavy Cruiser is a generic term for any heavily armed vessel designed for war, combat or 

defense. These vessels include battleships, escorts, and destroyers.

The NX-class was the first class of starship built with the warp five engine, thereby enabling 

Humanity's first steps of exploration beyond its neighboring star systems. 

Serving in the Earth Starfleet, the first ship of the NX-class was Enterprise, commissioned in 2151. 

The second ship, Columbia, was commissioned in 2154. 

The NX-class consisted of a habitable saucer module that contained seven decks (Lettered A- 

through G-deck) and a symmetrical warp field governor located just aft of the saucer section, that 

regulated the warp field shape that would otherwise break apart at higher warp factors. Two halfdecks 

were inserted between D- and E-deck, as well as between E- and F-deck. These contained 

plasma conduits and access tunnels. 

GM - The Enterprise Era Explorer does well as an example of a TL 10 exploration vessel Voyager 

might meet in the Delta Quardrant.

During the Earth's twentieth and twenty-first centuries the Vulcans began conducting an extensive 

effort to explore nearby star systems. Initially intended to survey all nearby systems for any signs of 

life, by 2120 the Vulcans had decided to concentrate their efforts on discovering space faring 

civilizations like their own. Ships traveling at relativistic speeds on missions that could last for decades 

carried out these missions. 

Various models of the T’Plana Hath have been employed but most are fitted to carry a small number 

of passengers and crew on extended exploration and scientific research missions. 

The T’Plana Hath has operated successfully for many decades, conducting missions on over ninety 

new worlds and participating in first contact situations a total of sixteen times. 

GM- This is an example of a small cargo or exploration ship.

12. Organizations of the Era 

Note that the Organisations below are not generally known of in the Delta Quadrant. It is also 200 

years out of date! 

(Add DQ stuff, like the Vidiian Sodality and Kazon tribes)and map 

Major Organizations 

With the vast amount of different cultures and species strewn across the sector, naturally there 

would be a plethora of organizations and affiliations native to each species. Listed here are some 

of the better-known organizations, although there are undoubtedly many more that could be 

researched and implemented into a given campaign setting. 

Earth Organizations 

Earth Starfleet 

The Earth Starfleet (often simply called Starfleet) is the primary space defense and exploration 

organization of United Earth in the early-to-mid-22nd century. The primary authority of the 

Earth Starfleet is referred to as either Starfleet Command or UESPA (United Earth Space Probe 

Agency) under the jurisdiction of the Command Council, and is located in the city of San 

Francisco, Earth. 

The main purpose of the Earth Starfleet is to "...seek out new life and new civilizations." and 

"...go boldly where no man has gone before." (This quote is attributed to Zefram Cochran, the 

inventor of warp drive on Earth.) 

Earth Starfleet is a civilian organization but has adopted many aspects of Earth's earlier military 

forces, even though its main role is scientific development and exploration. Ranks within 

Starfleet closely follow the naval traditions of the United States of America and the British Royal 

Navy. 

In 2153, following the Xindi attack on Earth and the numerous firefights that the Enterprise NX- 

01 had been involved in since its launch in 2151, it was determined that vessels of the Earth 

Starfleet would begin to carry detachments of United Earth's elite military unit, the MACOs, thus 

taking a step towards the unification of the Earth Starfleet and Earth Military Command -- and of 

the roles of defense and exploration. 

All Earth Starfleet officers and able crewmen wore the same basic uniform, with differences in 

insignia and color-coded elements designed to distinguish rank and departmental function. Earth 

Starfleet departments included Starfleet Operations and Starfleet Security. Some Starfleet 

personnel worked for the United Earth Diplomatic Corps. 

One of the primary projects of Earth Starfleet is to develop a viable and fast interstellar engine 

that would allow Earth to traverse cosmic distances in reasonably short time. Despite some 

allegations of interference - or at least a refusal of assistance - from the Vulcans, Earth has made 

notable progress in developing a warp five engine by the 2150s. 

Earth Starfleet Rank Structure 

Fleet Admiral Admiral Vice Admiral Rear Admiral Commodore 

Captain Commander Lieutenant Ensign Cadet 

Crew Chief Crewman 1st Class Crewman 2nd Class Crewman 3rd Class

Earth Cargo Service 

The Earth Cargo Service (or ECS) is the primary operating agency governing the operations of 

Earth-registered interstellar cargo transport vessels in the first half of the 22nd Century. 

Prior to Starfleet's NX program taking off with the launch of Enterprise (NX-01) in 2151, ships of 

the Earth Cargo Service were Earth's only real presence in outer space throughout the 2140s. The 

crew of these ships would spend years traveling from one planet to another; whole generations of 

these "boomers" grew up in space, and the ownership of ships often passed down family lines. 

Military Assault Command Operations 

Military Assault Command Operations (commonly abbreviated as MACO) is United 

Earth’s military organization in service on Earth during the 2140s through the 2160s prior 

to the founding of the Federation. The MACOs were not directly associated with the 

Earth Starfleet until 2153 when a unit of MACOs was put under the command of Captain 

Jonathan Archer of the NX-01 Enterprise. 

MACO posts included Atlanta and the Janus loop. Training posts include West Point in New 

York. MACOs have similar weapons, training, and tactics to the previous Special Forces of a 

number of member nations of United Earth, and their rank insignia is similar to that of the U.S. 

Marine Corps. 

Section 31 

Section 31 is the code name of an officially nonexistent and non-condoned rogue agency within 

Starfleet Intelligence that claims to protect the security interests of the United Earth (and later on, 

the Federation). Section 31 takes its name from Article 14, Section 31 of the Earth Starfleet 

Charter, which allowed certain rules of conduct to be "bent" during times of extraordinary threat. 

Little information is available about the activities of the organization; one of its operatives has 

claimed that Section 31 deals with threats to United Earth that others do not even realize exist. 

Section 31's actions are autonomous and neither controlled nor acknowledged by Starfleet 

Command or the United Earth government.

Vulcan Organizations 

Vulcan High Command 

In the 22nd century, Vulcan High Command is the most powerful governmental body on 

planet Vulcan, its de facto military government. During the 22nd century, the High 

Command is the organization responsible for overseeing Vulcan military as well as 

civilian organizations. Some of the organizations include: 

Vulcan Science Directorate 

The Vulcan Science Directorate is the head scientific authority of the Vulcan High Command, 

well known for its reluctance to embrace unorthodox ideas. 

The Vulcan Science Directorate has studied the question of time travel in great detail. By the 

mid-22nd century, they found no evidence that it exists or that it can exist, ultimately believing 

that its concept was "illogical". However, the Directorate had no trouble accepting the existence 

of micro-singularities or the notion that regions of space in the Delphic Expanse fail to conform 

to the laws of physics. 

Vulcan Security Directorate 

The Vulcan Security Directorate is an agency within the Vulcan High Command. It is 

directly responsible for the defense of the homeworld and for intelligence interests of the 

Vulcan government. 

The Security Directorate is tasked with gathering and analyzing information concerning 

neighboring powers in the galaxy. The information it receives is then passed on to the 

High Command that acts upon the information and analyses.

Andorian Organizations 

Andorian Imperial Guard 

The Andorian Imperial Guard is the primary military force of the Andorian Empire and 

maintained both starships and infantry. It had ranks of general, captain, commander, 

lieutenant and guardsman. The Imperial Guard is staffed with both male and female 

personnel. The Imperial Guard has been in existence for at least four Andorian 

generations prior to 2153. 

The standard sidearm issued to Imperial Guardsmen is an assault-rifle sized weapon which fires 

blue energy beams. It does not have a stun setting. 

When a Guardsman died far from home, it was his compatriots' duty to take a piece of the fallen 

back with them to Andoria (e.g. a vial of their blood). This item was to be taken to the Wall of 

Heroes. 

Andorian Mining Consortium 

The Andorian Mining Consortium, also known by the acronym AMC, is the third largest private 

corporation in Andoria by the 2150s. It is a relatively minor organization until it develops the 

Atlas computer in 2151, which transports ore out of the ground sending high-grade material to 

processing plants and returning low-grade material back to its source. AMC considers itself to be 

an environmentally friendly company, but ecologists are pressuring to have its practices 

investigated.

Denobulan Organizations 

Denobulan Medical Academy 

The Denobulan Medical Academy is the overseeing Academy of the Denobulan Academic 

Council. The main facility is in Triax on Denobula, though it is unclear if there are any other 

administrative facilities elsewhere. It has existed for well over two centuries as a part of the 

Denobulan Academic Council that consists of various academies all dealing with particular fields 

of research (physics, engineering, political science, literary studies etc…). 

The Denobulan Medical Academy contains many diagnostic and treatment wards, containing the 

most advanced and varied technologies. Long-term facilities are available to care for seriously ill 

patients. It is also responsible for all medical research activities on Denobula. Researchers are 

required to obtain approval from the Denobulan Medical Academy before proceeding with new 

treatments and medications. 

The Denobulan Medical Academy is also responsible for the regulation and training of various 

counselors, psychiatrists and psychologists. 

Note that by the time of Voyager the Denobulans had mysteriously vanished. 

Orion Organizations 

The Orion Syndicate 

The Orion Syndicate is a criminal cabal created by the Orions. The Syndicate had been 

established by the early 22nd century, and is an organized crime cartel the equivalent of an 

interstellar mafia. The Syndicate from its inception included among its principal activities 

smuggling, piracy, slave trading, and assassination. 

During the 22nd century, the Orion Syndicate controlled space neighboring the Klingon Empire, 

near the Briar Patch, and heavily patrolled by the area of space known as the Borderland, often 

abducting crewmembers of alien ships for the slave trade. 

If a member of the Syndicate is killed, the Syndicate looks after the deceased member's family. 

Orion Free Traders 

The Orion Free Traders are not a consolidated group. They are a loosely allied group of over one 

hundred Orion Merchant Captains who were tired of being referred to as pirates and smugglers 

every time they went to port. In an effort to distinguish themselves from the Orion Syndicate and 

other illicit groups, they have adopted their own network that includes Advisory Council, Pricing 

Enclave, a Coat of Arms and a Capital referred to as First Colony. 

First Colony is an extensive asteroid colony in the Berenices star system and has a population of 

approximately 78,000 Orions.

Klingon Organizations 

Imperial Klingon Fleet 

The Klingon Imperial Fleet is the name for the starship fleet and military personnel serving under 

the Klingon Empire during the 22nd century. 

The majority of Klingon Imperial Fleet members are common warriors. In order to become an 

officer a candidate must pass the entrance exam. An oversight council who can reject the 

application then must approve the prospective officer. Officers usually serve on the Klingon 

Empire's ships and warriors are sent into battle, whether it is on planetary assaults or when 

boarding other vessels. 

The system of hierarchy aboard ships within the Imperial Klingon Fleet is highly structured. 

According to their systems, one that has operated successfully for centuries, the First Officer of 

any Klingon vessel has the duty to assassinate his Captain when and if the Captain becomes weak 

or unable to perform. It is expected that his honorable retirement should be assisted by his "first". 

The second officer also shares similar duties with his "first". 

The Klingon Imperial Fleet is capable of deploying a fleet of ships to destroy an entire planet. 

Imperial Klingon Intelligence 

Klingon Intelligence is the intelligence-gathering agency of the Klingon Empire responsible for 

conducting espionage and covert activities. Agents who fail to accomplish their mission are 

dishonored and frequently executed or at the very least exiled from the Empire. 

Order of the Bat’leth 

The Order of the Bat'leth is an exclusive Klingon group, a status awarded to warriors who 

have distinguished themselves in battle. It is considered the highest honor a Klingon can 

receive. Every year, the chancellor inducts new members into the Order in a ceremony at 

the Hall of Warriors in the headquarters of the Klingon Defense Forces. Drunken 

celebrations are held for a full day before the induction itself, which is part of the 

ceremony as an endurance test.

13. Game Mechanics 

This is fairly basic, so the next section (15. Combat Notes) deals with things not mentioned below. 

Usually taken from D+D 3.5 or d20 Modern. 

This chapter is devoted to answering the question, “How do I…?” In this Chapter you will find specifics 

on combat, healing, environmental factors and other conditions that may affect the characters. 

Encounters 

Combat in Star Trek RPG is fairly straightforward. Follow the following steps: 

1. Roll for initiative 

Before the first round of Combat, each player rolls Initiative (1d20 + Dexterity modifier + feat 

bonuses). The Game Master rolls Initiative for the enemy. Whoever rolls highest goes first and 

whoever rolls lowest goes last. 

2. Actions 

There are four basic types of actions: attack actions, movement actions, free actions and full round 

actions. A character can do any of the following combinations of actions: 

- Move at 4x their full rate of speed (run) 

- Use their full attack action 

- Move at their normal speed and make a single attack 

- Do any of these things and make a free action as well 

- A Skill Check done during combat is considered an attack action 

- Drawing a weapon is considered a movement action unless a character has the Quickdraw 

Technique 

3. Attacking, Defending and Soaking 

To make a successful attack that will deal damage a character’s attack roll must exceed a target’s 

Defense score. To deal damage to a target the damage dealt must exceed their Armor Soak. 

- Attack Roll: 1d20 + Base Attack Bonus + Technique Bonuses 

- Defense: 10 + Dexterity Modifier + Class Bonus + Technique Bonuses 

- Armor Soak: Equals the value of Armor worn by the character 

4. Damage 

Each weapon type deals damage according to a particular die type (d4, d6, d8, d8, d10 or d12). After 

a successful attack roll, roll the die that corresponds to your weapon and have the result subtracted 

from your target’s total Hit Points (after all relevant Armour Soaks, etc.) as the effective damage. Also, 

add any bonus damage from Techniques. 

5. Attack Options 

* Attack: A single attack; can be made in concert with movement

* Full Attack: Some characters can attack more than once. Doing so is considered a full attack. A 

character cannot make a move action in the same round as making a full attack action. 

*Charge: A charge is a melee attack in which a character runs at 2x speed in a straight line (at least 5 

meters) as part of an attack. A charge attack incurs a +2 attack bonus and deals double damage on a 

successful hit. A charge incurs an attack of opportunity.

1 Regardless of the action, if a character moves out of a threatened square, the character usually 

provokes an attack of opportunity. This column indicates whether the action itself, not moving, 

provokes an attack of opportunity. 

2 If the object is being held, carried, or worn by a creature, yes. If not, no. 

3 If the character has a base attack bonus of +1 or higher, he or she can combine this action with a 

regular move. If the character has the Two-Weapon Fighting feat, he or she can draw two light or onehanded 

weapons in the time it would normally take to draw one. 

4 These attack forms substitute for a melee attack, not an action. As melee attacks, they can be used 

once in an attack or charge action, one or more times in a full attack action, or even as an attack of 

opportunity. 

5 The description of a feat defines its effect. 

6. Attacks of Opportunity 

During combat you threaten the area around you within two meters, even if it is not you turn. If an 

enemy moves through your threat area without engaging you in combat, they incur an attack of 

opportunity. Enemies who enter your threat area and engage in combat do not provoke an attack of 

opportunity. Enemies that retreat from your threat area who are using all-out defense do not provoke 

an attack of opportunity. 

Making an attack of opportunity is resolved like any other normal attack. A character can only make 

one attack of opportunity to a particular enemy but may make a number of attacks of opportunity per 

round equal to their Dexterity modifier unless they have the Combat Reflexes technique or similair. 

7. All Out Defense 

A character may choose to use the All Out Defense. By doing nothing but defending themselves a 

character receives a +4 bonus to their Defense score. While acting this way, a character may not 

attack or attempt to use any skill. They may only move and defend themselves. 

Saving Throws 

When a character is the target of an unusual attack (such as the mental attacks of a Mystic, trying to 

avoid the blast radius of a grenade or attempting the effects of radiation sickness) a character 

generally is allowed a saving throw to minimize or eliminate any detrimental effects. 

To succeed at a saving throw a player needs to roll equal or in excess of a Target 

Number designated by the Games Master. 

*Fortitude Save: 1d20 + base Fortitude bonus + Constitution modifier 

*Reflex Save: 1d20 + base Reflex bonus + Dexterity modifier 

*Will Save: 1d20 + base Will save + Wisdom modifier

Death, Dying and Healing 

Life in space is dangerous. As a character loses hit points they suffer negative effects. 

0 Hit Points 

If your hit points reach 0, your character is unconscious. The character is 

considered helpless and cannot move or do any actions whatsoever. 

-1 to –9 Hit Points 

At this point, the character is dying. They are still unconscious and helpless, but 

they also lose 1 hit point per round. 

-10 Hit Point or 0 Constitution 

At this point the character has died. 

Grappling 

In order to grapple an opponent, the two combatants must make an opposed Strength check. If the 

person initiating the grapple gets a higher result the grapple is successful. While grappled, the 

combatants are considered helpless and can only attempt to maintain the grapple (Strength check) or 

escape from the Grapple (Escape Artist check). 

Healing 

A character that uses the Treat Injury skill in concert with a Medical Tricorder’s Dermal Regenerator 

can heal wounds incurred by regular damage but not critical wounds. 

A Medic with a successful Surgery check can heal wounds incurred by critical damage. Surgery DC’s 

can be found in Chapter One in the Medic character class description. Regular wounds have a Treat 

Injury TN of 15 to cause effective healing. 

Attempting to heal without a Medical Tricorder is not as effective. A successful check on a TN of 22 

will stop any bleeding but will only heal 1d4 Hit Points. 

(See new rules under the Treat Injury Skill) 

If you get a nights rest then you heal 1 HP per Level. If you undergo complete bed rest for an entire 

day this is doubled. 

If you are under the care of a trained medical professional then you get +2 HP per rest or +4 HP for a 

whole day. (The medic may wish to make Treat Injury rolls though if he has the equipment to speed 

things up) 

If you are in a hospital or med bay then you get +2 HP per rest or +4 HP for a whole day.

Character Conditions 

There are any number of conditions that can have adverse affects on a character. 

Use the following definitions and modifiers to facilitate game play. 

Ability Damaged: implies that the character has lost at least one point of an ability score. 

The loss is temporary and these lost points return at a rate of 1 per day. 

Ability Drained: implies that the character has lost at least one point of an ability score. 

This loss is permanent. 

Blinded: implies that the character cannot see. The character has a 50% miss chance on 

all attack rolls as well as a –4 to all rolls. The character’s effective dexterity drops to a 3. 

Blindness can be temporary or permanent, curable or not as the story allows. 

Cowering: the hero is frozen in fear, losing all Dexterity bonuses and cannot take any 

actions. Attackers gain a +2 bonus to hit cowering enemies. Effect length varies. 

Dazed: unable to act, a dazed character can take no actions but can defend themselves 

normally. Typically lasts for 1 round. 

Deafened: the character cannot hear and suffers a –4 to initiative checks and cannot 

make Listen checks. Length of the condition may vary. 

Dead: a character is dead when their Hit Points drop to –10 or lower or when the 

Constitution score drops to 0 or lower. 

Exhausted: characters that are exhausted suffer a -6 to Strength and Constitution, move 

at half speed and can only attack once per round. Lasts until the character has had 6 

rounds of consecutive rest. 

Fatigued: Can't run or charge, -2 to STR and -2 DEX. 8 hours rest to remove this condition. If the 

character is affected by Fatigue a second time, they become exhausted. 

Helpless: paralyzed, sleeping or unconscious characters are considered helpless. Any 

attack against a helpless character is automatically successful and deals maximum 

possible damage. 

Knocked Out: when a character takes more subdual damage than they have Hit Points 

they are knocked out and rendered helpless for 1d20 minutes. Subdual damage can only 

be dealt by melee weapons (to include unarmed attacks). When attempting to deal 

subdual damage an attacker receives a –4 penalty to all attack rolls. 

Panicked: effects are the same as Cowered, but characters that are Panicked will attempt 

to flee if at all possible.

Prone: a character is prone when they are lying flat on the ground. They receive a –4 

penalty on attack rolls. Melee attacks against a prone character receive a +4 bonus. 

Ranged attacks against a prone suffer a –4 penalty. Getting up from the prone position is 

a full round action. 

Character can’t use bows or thrown ranged weapons. 

The +4 defence bonus should only applies if you are 30ft away from the attacker. Lying down is a 

good way to shoot rifles though, so a +1 to attack roll for being prone. Also, if the weapon has a stand, 

then a +2. 

Stable: the character is no longer dying but is still unconscious. 

Stunned: a character that is stunned is rendered helpless for 1d10 minutes. [GM - no!] 

GM - as per D+D 3.5 : Drops all held objects, -2 to AC, loses Dex bonus to AC 

Ranged Combat Increments

14. COMBAT NOTES 

This section covers additions to the previous section. 

Your STR MOD is added to your Melee Damage. 

Your DEX MOD is added to your Ranged Attack. 

Note: This means that if Weapon Proficiencies are being used as skills, do not apply the Dex or Str 

modifier to the Weapon Skill otherwise it would be applied twice.

Firing more than once in a combat round. 

Most firearms have a rate of fire greater than one every six seconds. The more you fire though, the 

less accurate the shot. 

Standard Attack (3 seconds) (Modifier to hit applies to each bullet)

SETTINGS 

Some weapons have a single, three round burst, and full auto setting. Also Stun Settings 

In a standard attack: 

Single shot setting: +1 to hit 

Three Round Burst: -2 to hit (rather than -3) 

Full Auto: The entire clip is emptied in the rough direction of the target: -10 to hit 

Stun Setting: Damage is Subdual only. 

Sniper: Some weapons will have a scope on them that allows more accurate aimed shots to be fired. 

This will be detailed in the weapons description but in general only 1 aimed shot can be fired every 

Standard Action (so two in a full action). This gives a +1 bonus to hit. If you take a full action, the 

bonus is +2. 

Suppressing Fire 

Roll your attack roll DC10. 

For the rest of the round you are firing down a 5ft ‘lane’. Anyone moving through that lane may make 

a REF saves versus the number of bullets/pulses. Otherwise they are hit by the amount of bullets they 

failed the roll by. 

The shooter can split the number of bullets down two more ‘lanes’ or lines of fire as they wish. 

Note: This is different from aiming at someone. Normal full round burst rules apply when aiming. This 

is for area denial. If someone moves through the ‘lane’ they will have to make the REF roll to avoid 

the hail of bullets. 

Note: Also someone ‘standing still’ will have to make the roll. If you stay in the suppressed area on 

your turn and are not behind cover or concealment of any kind while a lane is being suppressed a 

REF roll must be made to avoid the suppressing fire. 

Taking Aim 

You may take 1 full round to aim a shot, this gives a +1 to the eventual attack roll. If you are using a 

sniper shot then it is +2 to hit. This can be done a maximum of three rounds for a total bonus of +3 

(or +6 with a scope).

Cover 

To compensate for the fact that people can spray bullets around alot in these rules there will be a 

cover system. This is borrowed from d20 Modern (shown below). 

But also : new GM rule(!) : The more you shoot from cover the lese effective it is. This makes sense 

as if you just poke your head around the corner, fire once, then hide for the rest of the round, you get 

good cover. If, however, you are blasting away all round cover has less effect. So I've modified the 

table from d20Modern a bit. 

Cover 

Cover provides a bonus to Defense. The more cover a character has, the bigger the bonus. In a 

melee, if a character has cover against an opponent, that opponent probably has cover against the 

character, too. With ranged weapons, however, it’s easy to have better cover than the opponent. 

The GM may impose other penalties or restrictions on attacks depending on the details of the cover. 

Degree of Cover 

Cover is assessed in subjective measurements of how much protection it offers. The GM determines 

the value of cover. This measure is not a strict mathematical calculation, because a character gains 

more value from covering the parts of his or her body that are more likely to be struck. If the bottom 

half of a character’s body is covered, that only gives one-quarter cover, because most vital areas are 

still fully exposed. If one side or the 

other of a character’s body is covered, the character gets onehalf cover. 

Cover Defense Bonus 

Table: Cover gives the Defense bonuses for different degrees of cover. Add the relevant number to 

the character’s Defense. This cover bonus overlaps (does not stack) with certain other bonuses. 

Cover Reflex Save Bonus 

Table: Cover gives the Reflex save bonuses for different degrees of cover. Add this bonus to Reflex 

saves against attacks that affect an area. This bonus only applies to attacks that originate or burst out 

from a point on the other side of the cover. 

Striking the Cover Instead of a Missed Target 

If it ever becomes important to know whether the cover was actually struck by an incoming attack that 

misses the intended target, the GM should determine if the attack roll would have hit the protected 

target without the cover. If the attack roll falls within a range low enough to miss the target with cover 

but high enough to strike the target if there had been no cover, the object used for cover was struck. 

This can be particularly important to know in cases when a character uses another character as 

cover. 

In such a case, if the cover is struck and the attack roll exceeds the Defense of the covering 

character, the covering character takes the damage intended for the target. 

If the covering character has a Dexterity bonus to Defense or a dodge bonus, and this bonus keeps 

the covering character from being hit, then the original target is hit instead. The covering character 

has dodged out of the way and didn’t provide cover after all. A covering character can choose not to 

apply his or her Dexterity bonus to Defense and/or his or her dodge bonus, if the character so desires.

(GM: I'm kind of trying to make this a game were people shoot from cover since to be out in the open 

is to be scythed down by a hail of bullets. )

Two Weapon Combat 

(look up d20 Modern) pp 127 

Attacking with Two Weapons: If the character wields a second weapon in his or her off hand, the 

character can get one extra attack per round with that weapon. Fighting in this way is very difficult, 

however—the character takes a –6 penalty on the regular attack or attacks with his or her primary 

hand and a –10 penalty on the attack with his or her off hand. A character can reduce these penalties 

in two ways. 

1. If the off-hand weapon is light, the penalties are reduced by 2 each. (An unarmed strike is always 

considered light.) 

2. The Two-Weapon Fighting feat lessens the primary hand penalty by 2, and the off-hand penalty by 

6. 

Table: Two-Weapon Fighting Penalties summarizes the interaction of all these factors. 

Circumstances Primary Hand Off Hand Second

*If you have a +6 attack bonus and are capable of making a second attack you must have the 

Improved Two Weapon Fighting feat in order to make a second attack with your offhand weapon. 

To mix ranged and melee weapons you must have the Improved Two Weapon Feat. If not, then the 

circumstances revert back to 'Normal'.

Unarmed Combat 

As per D+D 3.5 pp139. 

If you make an unarmed attack and the opponent is armed with a melee weapon they get an Attack 

of Opportunity. This is negated by specific feats or circumstances (e.g. Hand to Hand combat training, 

natural weapons). 

Damage is 1d3 plus STR mod. 

Damage is non-lethal unless the attacker takes a -4 to hit. 

Unarmed attacks can be 'Dual Wielded' if the attacker has the 'Two-weapon fighting' feat.

15. THE IP SYSTEM 

Note each roll, and the total. Put in a table like this for example: 

skill roll total IP's 

tricorder (tac) 6 14 



computer use 12 16 

phase rifle 11 18 

phase rifle 9 16 

phase rifle (sniper) 20 (confirm) 30 

phase rifle (sniper) 13 23 

The GM will award IPs and send it back to you. Put as much info as you wish, for example if a rifle 

shot was a kill shot, a critical, or for example if a good Diplomacy roll at a critical moment changed the 

team’s fortunes around. 

Skill ranks 

IP required 

0 0 

1 10 

2 20 

3 30 

4 40 

5 50 

6 60 

7 70 

8 80 

9 90 

10 100 

11 110 

etc 

etc 

Thus if you had just spent all your IPs on going from 8 to 9, now you will need to gain 100 IPs to get to 

level 10 by using the IP system. This is completely independent of skill ranks gained via levelling up. 

or every successful roll gets 1 IP

16. PET PROJECTS 

Many people on board liked to do their own projects, e.g. Tom Paris and the Delta Flyer. Use the form 

below to track your progress on your own projects: 

The PC names the project, writes the abstract and decides what skills they will use (if any!). 

The GM will decide the level of complexity of the project, how long it will take and what requirements 

there are. 

The PC may then decide what corners to cut or if they require help. The PC may increase the times if 

they wish. (e.g. Starfleet guidelines state I should soak test new software for 48 hours, but I will do it 

for 

The PC may decide that they know what they are going to do and do not need any preliminary work 

and go straight into implantation. Without an FDS though you cannot present your wonderful idea to 

anyone else in the crew and will not be taken seriously. 

The PC may decide not to do any testing and go straight into using the thing they have made. There 

is a good chance the thing will not work though and this increases with complexity. Also, without a 

signed off test procedure your new invention will not be adopted by the crew. 

Note that at the ‘end’ of the project you may not have a success, but this will depend on various 

factors that the GM may or may not share with the player. Even something that has been tested may 

not work in the field. The more testing that is done the better and the higher the complexity of the 

project the more issues it is likely to have once it is finished.

18. SHIFTS ON VOYAGER 

(For this I toyed with various four-bell naval systems (see : 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship%27s_bell ), but it's a bit tricky to get your head round so I've opted 

for a 12-hour shift pattern which I'm more familiar with from working offshore. There was no mention 

of shift patterns on Memory Alpha.) 

This is an example shift pattern for a Tactical Specialist working in the Deck 6 Armoury. 

It uses a 12 on / 12 off shift pattern, with half days on Sat and Sun.

20. REPLICATORS 

Replicators are difficult things for RPG games as they are basically a 'Win Button' for a lot of 

situations. They do have their limits though. 

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Replicator 

If an item exists in the Replicator library then there is no need to make a skill check. However, new 

items can be added to the Replicator library if the Replicator has a way of scanning them in (e.g. 

running the item through a Transporter and feeding in the resultant data. 

See this skill 'Replicator Use' and 'Transporter Use' for details on skill checks. 

Replicators on board Voyager are strictly rationed and may not be used frivolously unless they are 

part of a personal ration. 

Usage costs 1g of Dilithium per 10kg. 

What is and what is not in the Voyager Replicator Library: 

YES 

Small Flying Drone 

Sensor Enhancer 

Industrial Laser 

Diamonds, but use more energy. 1 'handful' = 10kg worth of rep usage 

NO 

Weapon drones, repair drones, etc 

Alien Eggs - would take a week or two and be tricky. Also there are legal issues about living and once 

living matter 

Dilithium

21. Dilithium 

1g of Dilithium = 100 credits 



1kg of Dilithium = 100,000 credits 

1kg of Unrefined Dilithium = 100 credits 

Dilithium cannot be replicated 

Refining Dilithium 

Dilithium can be refined with various setups as listed below. 

Refinery Time per kg Unrefined In Refined Out Cost 

Small Jury Rigged Set Up 1 hour 50kg 1kg None* 

Dilithium Refinery - Small 1 hour 25kg 1kg 50,000 

Dilithium Refinery - Medium 1 hour 50kg 2kg 150,000 

Dilithium Refinery - Large 1 hour 100kg 4kg 550,000 

MW Dilithium Refinery - Small 1 hour 25kg 2kg 10,0,000 

MW Dilithium Refinery - Medium 1 hour 50kg 4kg 300,000 

MW Dilithium Refinery - Large 1 hour 100kg 8kg 1,100,000 

*A small jury rigged set up can be made from parts found on a starship. It takes 24 hours to set up. d3 

ships systems will be less effective (25% less on Small vessels, 10% less on Medium, 5% on large) 

until repaired due to the loss of parts. 

All refineries need someone to man it, unless a self service hopper is added to regulate the input. This 

costs 2,000 credits 

Common Dilithium Costs 

Ship Size 

Energy Min Rest Warp 

Maximum 

Shuttlecraft 15 0.1 0.5 1 

Freighter 28 0.5 2 4 

Light Cruiser/Raider 40 1 4 8 

Heavy Cruiser 65 2 8 16 

Explorer 50 1.5 6 12 

Each human sized object transported costs 1g of DL. 

Every 10kg replicated costs 1g DL. 

Other actions may cost grams of DL as the GM decides.

Ensign Michael Parsons was a 24th century Starfleet officer serving 

under Captain Kathryn Janeway aboard the USS Voyager. In 2371, 

Parsons was among the crew stranded in the Delta Quadrant when 

Voyager was forcefully brought there by the Caretaker. 

Parsons, who was assigned to the command division, was involuntarily 

asked to keep an eye on the mess hall and galley by Neelix when he had 

to go to the bridge. (VOY: "Phage") 

Neelix believed that Parsons was possessed by the Komar. The 

Talaxian's reasoning was that Parsons liked his pejuta hot and with 

lemon, and that his recent order was for cold Pejuta without lemon, 

therefore he might not be the same person. (VOY: "Cathexis") 

While The Doctor was delusional, later that year, he imagined that he and 

Reginald Barclay were going to disable the holoemitters in engineering 

and that Janeway ordered Jarvis and Parsons, who was then assigned to 

the operations division, to stop them. (VOY: "Projections") 

Parsons' name was read aloud by Harry Kim, in early 2372, when Kim 

reviewed Voyager's crew roster. (VOY: "Non Sequitur") 

In 2373, Parsons suffered from a microbial infection. The Doctor set up a 

culture of his glial cells to do an immunogenicity analysis, but was too 

distracted with his holographic family, so Kes did the tests instead. 

(VOY: "Real Life") 

In 2374, Parsons received a letter from home, handed out by Neelix in 

themess hall, that had been transmitted from the Alpha Quadrant over 

the 

Hirogen communications network. (VOY: "Hunters")

Lydia Anderson was a Starfleet crewman on the USS Voyager assigned to engineering and the 

security division during its time in the Delta Quadrant. 

In 2371 she was part of the security team which accompanied Captain Kathryn Janeway to the 

airponics bay to stop Kes who transported herself back in time. 

Anderson and the other security officer got into a firefight with boarding Vidiians. (VOY: "Fury") 

Anderson, with a different hairstyle, was one of the security officers, who welcomed Seven of 

Nine and the Hirogen Tsunkatse fighter aboard Voyager, where she pointed a phaser rifle onto 

them. (VOY: "Tsunkatse") 

Anderson served as security guard for two injured prisoners who were beamed directly into the 

sickbay in 2377. She remained guarding the sickbay along with Ayala. (VOY: "Repentance") 

In 2377, she was brainwashed by the Quarren after they irradiated Voyager and forced the 

evacuation of its crew. She, along with most of the rest of the crew, spent approximately three 

weeks in the largest city on Quarra. Her memories were altered and she was unaware that she 

had been kidnapped. Anderson appeared in Tuvok's computer file. (VOY: "Workforce", 

"Workforce, Part II") 

She was among the crewmembers who stood in the hallway to bid farewell to Neelix when he left 

the ship for Dexa and Brax. (VOY: "Homestead")

Ensign Munro is a skilled combatant, but comes 

through as headstrong and lacking in discipline to her 

fellow Hazard Team members. In fact, this is true to 

some degree, but Munro is a much more capable

herself throughout the game. Munro also has a habit 

of going off alone into extremely dangerous

During the mission to obtain isodesium from the

Crewman Telsia Murphy grew up on crime-ridden Ballatrix X, in the Orion

society places on women; she survived partially due to her strong-willed 

Irish side. She learned the intricacies of combat at an early age, and her 

marksmanship is unparalleled within the Hazard Team, making her a 

valuable asset to any mission. Because of this and her ability to navigate 

harsh environments she serves as the Hazard Team's sniper and scout.
