 Starship in a Bottle
Source Starfinder #16: The Blind City pg. 49
Level 10; Price 17,500; Bulk 2DescriptionWhen purchased or crafted, a starship in a bottle looks like a
miniature model of a generic starship within a plain, narrownecked
glass bottle. However, when placed in a prominent
location on a starship’s bridge for 24 hours, the model links
to that starship and transforms into an exact replica of it.
During starship combat, the replica can sometimes be seen to
turn and twist in the same maneuvers the linked starship is
performing. A member of the linked starship’s crew (meaning
anyone holding one of the major starship combat roles) can
hold the starship in a bottle in two hands and concentrate for
10 minutes to transfer all the Hull Point damage of the linked
starship to the replica. The linked starship is returned to full
Hull Points, while the various dents, scratches, and even holes
in the linked starship’s hull visibly transfer to the replica. Up
to 150 Hull Points of damage can be transferred to the replica
before it loses all its magic, becoming a mundane trinket of a
wrecked starship inside of a bottle. A starship can be linked to
only one starship in a bottle at a time.
A spellcaster can cast either mending or make whole on the
starship in a bottle to repair the replica’s Hull Point damage
once per day, but doing so creates a feedback loop between the
spellcaster and the magic item. The spellcaster takes an amount
of Hit Point damage equal to twice the number of Hull Points
restored; this damage can’t be reduced in any way (though it can
be healed as normal). There is no other way to repair the Hull
Point damage done to the replica.
