Drift Sense The dragon can always sense the distance and direction to the nearest Drift beacon and to the
Starstone on Absalom Station.
Battle Stations locomotion organelle (
Boost Thrusters,
Change Heading), magic organelle (cosmic attunement, cosmic blast, drift sense, Stellar Breath), motor organelle (claw, Draconic Frenzy, jaws, tail)
Attunement Aura (
aura,
divine) 1 zone. Allied starships in the aura gain a +1-zone status bonus to Speed (if dragon is photon-attuned), or enemies take a –1-zone status penalty to Speed (if dragon is graviton-attuned). These effects apply at the start of the starship’s turn and end at the start of its next turn.

Cosmic Attunement
(divine)
The dragon is always attuned to an underlying stellar force: either photons or gravitons. They can swap attunement as a free action once at the start of their turn in combat and is otherwise attuned to whichever force they choose at any time outside of combat. While photon-attuned, the dragon's melee Strikes deal an additional 2d6 fire damage; while graviton-attuned, their melee Strikes deal additional 1d6 bludgeoning damage plus the target becomes
off-guard until the end of the dragon's current turn. The damage of their cosmic blast Strike is determined by their current attunement (fire for photons and bludgeoning for gravitons), as are the effects of some of their other abilities.
Draconic Frenzy
[two-actions]
The dragon makes two claw Strikes and one tail Strike in any order.
Draconic Momentum
The dragon recharges their Stellar Breath whenever they score a critical hit with a Strike.
Stellar Breath
[two-actions]
(colddivine)
The dragon unleashes divine power like that from the core of a star or black hole, dealing 4d10
cold damage in a 1-zone cone (DC
22 basic Will save). Starships immune to cold damage take bludgeoning or fire damage instead (see cosmic attunement). The dragon can't use Stellar Breath for 1d4 rounds.
