Vantage Station took a micrometeoroid swarm broadside about six weeks ago. Half the hull is open to space, the rest is holding by habit. Crew of nine: three bodies aboard, one pod launched, the others unaccounted for. Last log entry: Deckhand Moreau. Hook: The salvage claim on this hull was filed two days ago by someone who has not been here.

Free, CC0. The .dd2vtt carries walls, doors and 1 light, 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.
Traffic control dark. The customs desk still has a queue rope up.
Nav plot frozen on the last fix. Somebody wrote the numbers on the glass.
Log fragment (Nav) "Debris field not on any chart. Cpt. says ride it out. We are riding it out."
Something moved in here — recently. Manifest on the wall, half the lines crossed out in marker.
Hazard loose cargo drifting in vacuum. Anything not tied down moves when the station does.
Salvage forty crates of machine parts, twelve of them worth carrying. One is marked with a shipping line that no longer exists.
Dark. Emergency lighting only. Reactor cold. Tools laid out for a repair nobody finished.
Log fragment (Eng.) "Patched the aft seam twice. It will not hold a third time. Told her. She knows."
Dark. Emergency lighting only. Battery light blinking. The last treatment is still on the screen.
Salvage autodoc still charged. Two courses of trauma meds, one vial with the label scraped off.
Connections:
- Lift at column 16, row 15 → Ring deck
- Stairs at column 17, row 15 → Ring deck
- Ladder at column 15, row 2 → Ring deck
Cold. Frost on every surface. Lift and stairs up to the hub.
Hazard hull plate hanging by two rivets. Touch it and it goes, with whoever is holding it.
Cold. Frost on every surface. Lockers open. Whatever was worth taking went with the pods.
Vacuum. Suit up. Lockers open. Whatever was worth taking went with the pods.
The coffee machine is still warm. The rations are gone.
Scrubbers dead. The air is whatever is left.
Hazard cracked O2 line. Sparks here mean fire, then no fire, then nothing at all.
Log fragment (Tech) "Sealed sections 3 through 7. If anyone is in there, they are not answering the comm."
Connections:
- Lift at column 15, row 14 → Hub deck
- Stairs at column 16, row 14 → Hub deck
- Ladder at column 14, row 1 → Hub deck
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.
