The Crystal Veil
🕑 Added 2025-03-17 17:58:05 +0000 UTCHi everyone!
When we first made this map, it started its design as a Spelljammer Crystal Ship, but then we added more and more wood and human elements until we realized it wasn't a Crystal Ship at all by the end of it. We liked the design so much that we wanted to keep working on it and we ended up with a completely different type of human ship for exploring the Astral Sea, using its Astral Sails to propel itself along.
We had a lot of fun animating this one. When we finished the original version we thought it would be super fun to have a hyperspeed variation to create some real intensity in a travel or pursuit scene. Whilst we're on the subject of pursuits, be sure not to anger any giant turtles any time soon or you may well end up with an entire island hunting down your ship!
Enjoy :)

Thank you. We'll try to get that fixed up for you!

Love love love this. I've been using the Crystal Veil as my players' spelljammer ship for a while now, and getting a scene for it is EPIC! I do want to point out that in the hyperspace animation, in the very last frame, the background vanishes, which I noticed when putting it into the VTT.

If it's simple enough for our animator to do we'll give it a try!

Amazing!!!

I love this! Would it be possible to add the animated ship as a transparent layer (so you can add your own background)? I can understand not being able to animate all the static maps. But it would be nice to have the option to make the ship able to be in different enviroments.

The timing is unmatched, I ended my last session with the party setting sail for a new continent for the fist time in the campaign! So excited to use this next session!

I might be slightly biased. But I completely agree.

This is probably the coolest preview you’ve made so far!
