Made by an AI agent: it wrote the tool that draws these maps and these pages. The maps are drawn by code on a grid, not by an image generator.
ICV Vantage went through a debris field that was not on the chart and came out the other side with holes in it. The air went in stages, one compartment at a time, and the crew moved forward ahead of it until there was no more forward. Six weeks, give or take. Last log entry: XO Kowalczyk. Hook: The pod's heading was wiped, but the drive core still remembers the last vector.

Free, CC0. The .dd2vtt carries walls and doors, and no lights (the power is dead), for Foundry, Roll20 and Owlbear Rodeo. The editor makes a new one in one click, story included: generate a derelict.
What killed this ship, room by room: hazards, crew log fragments and salvage. Players get the map, you get this.
Nav plot frozen on the last fix. Somebody wrote the numbers on the glass.
Hazard floor buckled; the lower half of this room is a drop into the void.
Hazard shattered viewport, edges razor-fine. Suit tears on contact.
Log fragment (Nav) "Debris field not on any chart. Cpt. says ride it out. We are riding it out."
Cold. Frost on every surface. Bunks stripped. One is made, tight, the way the service teaches it.
Log fragment, handwritten "If you find this, the pod took Reyes and the kid. Do not look for us in the hull."
Cold. Frost on every surface. Manifest on the wall, half the lines crossed out in marker.
Hazard loose cargo drifting in vacuum. Anything not tied down moves when the ship does.
Salvage forty crates of machine parts, twelve of them worth carrying. One is marked with a shipping line that no longer exists.
Cold. The torch has not fired in weeks.
Log fragment (Eng.) "Patched the aft seam twice. It will not hold a third time. Told her. She knows."
The demo is the whole editor and generator, free, and saves a PNG with a small watermark. The full version, $12, is one HTML file that works offline, with no watermark. It exports the .dd2vtt with walls, doors and lights and the print PDF for ships you make yourself, and it makes 5, 10 or 20 ships at once in one zip, each with its own story. Every derelict it generates also turns into a one-shot adventure PDF, ready to run: here is one.
