About the adventure
Adventure has no horizon. You are the newest sailors aboard the spelljamming vessel of the infamous Captain Neptune Valissant—privateer, pirate, smuggler, explorer, and occasional legitimate businesswoman. After being accepted into the crew, the captain will set sail to your debut job, that will dictate if you have what it takes to stay in the crew. It might be a simple job, but in the Astral Sea, simple jobs have a habit of becoming spectacular disasters. Sail between strange worlds and distant planes. Drink with scoundrels in taverns drifting through the silver void. Explore derelict ships and ancient ruins. Make allies, betray enemies, hunt monsters, dodge the law, and discover treasures that were probably buried for very good reasons. Your choices will shape the crew's reputation—and determine whether Captain Valissant's newest recruits become legendary buccaneers… or another collection of frozen corpses drifting through Wildspace. Raise the colors, load the ballistae, and prepare to sail the Astral Sea.
