Skeleton Ship

Skeleton Ships are spelljammers created from the bones of dead megafauna, most typically kindori. Due to their sparse accomodations, Skeleton Ships are most often staffed entirely by undead.

Power Generation

Many skeleton ships make use of lifejammers over traditional spelljamming helm, which drain the life of the user in exchange for not requiring magical proficiency. These cheaper helms also pose no threat to the undead crew, who are immune to the effects of a lifejammer and thus can't use it.

Weapons & Armament

Most Skeleton Ships are lightly outfitted, due to the weight limits of what the skeletons can bare. A typical outfit includes just a few undead and two ballistas, one for the bow and stern of the vessel. Some Skeleton Ships are outfitted with Greek Fire projectors or bombs to be used a suicide craft, but these tactics are often ineffective as the fragile Skeleton Ships can be destroyed before they make contact with enemy vessels.
