Below are statblocks for spelljammers that are commonly encountered in this campaign or which have been awarded to PCs as magic items. Unless a spelljammer is an approved magic item that belongs to a PC, it is not necessary to use one of the statblocks provided below. Individual spelljammers may have unique, customized traits even if they follow the same general model.
Note that these rules were designed prior to the release of the 5th edition D&D Spelljammer books. Many of the mechanics below contradict the current “official” mechanics of spelljammers. Rather than revise all of the previous mechanics, they have been preserved below in their original form for the sake of reference. The “official” 5th edition mechanics are described in the Astral Adventurer's Guide. It is up to each DM to decide which version of the spelljamming mechanics to use—the 5th edition ruleset, the legacy Aethervane mechanics, or something else entirely.
