Corsairs are adventurers who live by their talents in the astral plane, offering a range of specialized astral-sailing and adventuring skills unavailable to other characters.
### Boarding
Corsairs who are in the act of boarding another vessel don't suffer the usual boarding penalty to attack rolls and Armour Class.
- Don't suffer the usual boarding penalty to attack rolls and Armor Class when boarding.
### Combat
### Corsair Skills
Because of their need for free movement in the open astral void, corsairs cannot wear armour heavier than leather and cannot use shields. They can use any weapon.
### Astral Corsair Skills
Corsairs can use the following skills, with the chance of success shown below:
- **Climb sheer surfaces (CS)**: A roll is required for each 100’ to be climbed. If the roll fails, the corsair falls at the halfway point, suffering falling damage.
- **Move silently (MS)**: An astral corsair may attempt to sneak past enemies unnoticed.
- **Astral-faring (AF)**: An astral corsair always knows which way is down, how to get by in the open astral void, and how to make repairs when their vessel takes on damage.
- **Tightrope walking (TW)**: Corsairs can walk along tightropes, narrow beams, and ledges at up to half their normal movement rate. A roll is required every 60’. Failure indicates that the corsair falls and suffers falling damage. Windy conditions may reduce the chance of success by up to 20%.
- For most, roll 1d100, result under score is success. For hear noise (HN), use 1d6.
- Referee should roll in secret for move silently (MS).

### Rolling Skill Checks
All skills are rolled on d%, with a result of less than or equal to the listed percentage indicating success.
#### Player Knowledge
The referee should roll for hide in shadows and move silently on the player’s behalf, as the corsair does not immediately know if the attempt was successful. If a hide in shadows or move silently roll fails, the referee knows that the corsair has been noticed and should determine enemies’ actions appropriately.
- **Climb sheer surfaces (CS)**: Roll for every 100' climbed, failure means falling from the halfway point (and taking damage).
- **Move silently (MS)**: Sneak past enemies unnoticed.
- **Astral-faring (AF)**: Know which way is down, survive in the open astral void, and repairs when vessel takes on damage.
- **Tightrope walking (TW)**: Walk along tightropes, narrow beams, and ledges at up to half normal movement rate.
- Roll for every 60’ walked, failure means falling (and taking damage).
- Windy conditions may reduce the chance of success by up to 20%.
