# Boundless Pass Everyone needs a full-bore example of what a random generation system can do. This one is from the **[[Ironsworn - Starforged|Starforged]]** third-party expansion **[[Ancient Wonders]]**. Yes, it's really this crunchy, which is shocking for such a light crunch fiction-forward game. It's also really cool. > [!info] **Boundless Pass** — Solar System > - ⭐ **Stellar Object** — d100 `18` → Hypergiant star generating turbulent solar winds > - **Orbital Bodies** > - 🪐 **Planets Quantity** — d100 `73` → Four planets > - **Planet 1** — Planet Location `98` (6 free) → 6th free → **orbit 6** > - **Planet 2** — Planet Location `9` (5 free) → 1st free → **orbit 1** > - **Planet 3** — Planet Location `33` (4 free) → 2nd free → **orbit 3** > - **Planet 4** — Planet Location `16` (3 free) → 1st free → **orbit 2** > - ∴ **Asteroid Belts Quantity** — d100 `64` → One asteroid belt > - **Belt 1** — **Asteroid Belt Location** — d100 `98` (5 free) → 5th free → **inter-5** > - **Planet 1** — Planet Phase `61` (orbit 6th) → 4th phase > - **Planet 2** — Planet Phase `84` (orbit 1st) → 6th phase > - **Planet 3** — Planet Phase `49` (orbit 3rd) → 3rd phase > - **Planet 4** — Planet Phase `27` (orbit 2nd) → 2nd phase > - **Sector Name** — Prefix `13` → **Boundless** · Suffix `63` → **Pass** > - **Region** — **Outlands** (default) > - ○ · ○ · ○ · · · · ∴ ○ > - Planets: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th · Belts: inter-5 **Boundless Pass** is a young, violent system centered on a **hypergiant star** — one of those bloated, short-fused monsters that spits **turbulent solar winds** into everything around it. The inner four worlds crowd close to that furnace, huddled inside the searing band before the orbit gaps and opens out; beyond them, a single ring of frozen rubble drifts in the deep cold of the inter-5 lane, and one lonely desert giant hangs far out in the warm half-light. It is a system that feels barely settled — as if it is still deciding whether it wants to hold life at all. > [!info] **Boundless Pass b — Umbra (orbit 1st)** > - 🔥 **Stellar Heat (orbit 1st)** — Searing > - 🪐 **Planetary Class** — d100 `71` → **Rocky World** > - ✒️ **Name inspirations** — Hecate, Orpheus, Umbra > - 📏 **Planet Size** — d100 `87` → **Enormous** > - 🌍 **World Size** — ~329,000 km circumference · equatorial radius ~52,362 km (~8.21× Earth; range 301-400) > - ⚖️ **Density** — d100 `98` → Very heavy > - ⏳ **Gravity** — Enormous · Very heavy → Severe > - 🛰️ **Orbital Feature** — d100 `59` → >Moon > - 🌙 **Moons** (d100 `38`) → **Abundant** (68) > - **Moon Size** — d100 `3` → Minuscule > - **Designation** — b-1 … b-68 > - ☁️ Atmosphere — d100 `96` → Breathable > - 🧬 Life — d100 `43` → None > - 🪐 **Biome Diversity** — d100 `93` → **Diverse** > - 🪐 **Biome** — d100 `92` → Mud > - 🪐 **Additional biomes** (Diverse) — Bog, Bleak > - 🏙️ **Settlements** (Outlands) — d100 `86` → Orbital > - 🏞️ **Surface Feature** — d100 `25` → Weathered rocky monoliths **Umbra** is a world at war with itself: **eight times** the size of Earth, packed **very heavy** with metal, so dense that anything standing on it feels the crushing **severe** gravity in its bones.

There is no life, only miles of **mud and bog** under a **bleak**, gray sky, broken by **weathered rocky monoliths** that look like the teeth of something that gave up. Sixty-eight **minuscule moons** swarm it like a shoal of fish around a reef. Nobody dares set foot on its surface, but the pull that makes it hell on land makes it heaven for ships: **orbital settlements** ring the world, hanging off its gravity well like barnacles. > [!info] **Boundless Pass c — Magonia (orbit 2nd)** > - 🔥 **Stellar Heat (orbit 2nd)** — Searing > - 🪐 **Planetary Class** — d100 `66` → **Jovian World** > - ✒️ **Name inspirations** — Hanish, Magonia, Tyr > - 📏 **Planet Size** — d100 `51` → **Large** > - 🌍 **World Size** — ~69,000 km circumference · equatorial radius ~10,982 km (~1.72× Earth; range 46-100) > - ⚖️ **Density** — d100 `91` → Very heavy > - ⏳ **Gravity** — Large · Very heavy → High > - 🛰️ **Orbital Feature** — d100 `79` → >Dense Nebula Cloud > - 🌙 **Moons** (d100 `76`) → **Few** (7) > - **Moon Size** — d100 `75` → Middling > - **Designation** — c-1 … c-7 > - ☁️ Atmosphere — d100 `83` → Marginal > - 🧬 Life — d100 `22` → None > - 🏙️ **Settlements** (Outlands) — d100 `22` → None > - 🏞️ **Surface Feature** — d100 `65` → Radiation fields **Magonia** is the system's silent giant — a **Jovian world** wrapped in a **dense nebula cloud**, a murky shroud that hides the planet's true face behind veils of glowing gas. It has no life, barely a **marginal** atmosphere worth the name, and its outer bands are laced with **radiation fields** that make any approach a gamble. Seven steady **moons** pace it through the murk. There are **no settlements** here, and none are wanted; Magonia is less a place to go than a thing to pass, an enormous, indifferent gatekeeper breathing the searing wind. > [!info] **Boundless Pass d — Obsidian (orbit 3rd)** > - 🔥 **Stellar Heat (orbit 3rd)** — Searing > - 🪐 **Planetary Class** — d100 `39` → **Furnace World** > - ✒️ **Name inspirations** — Hera, Vesta, Obsidian > - 📏 **Planet Size** — d100 `65` → **Huge** > - 🌍 **World Size** — ~151,000 km circumference · equatorial radius ~24,032 km (~3.77× Earth; range 101-200) > - ⚖️ **Density** — d100 `76` → Heavy > - ⏳ **Gravity** — Huge · Heavy → High > - 🛰️ **Orbital Feature** — d100 `5` → None > - 🌙 **Moons** (d100 `62`) → **Many** (24) > - **Moon Size** — d100 `32` → Minor > - **Designation** — d-1 … d-24 > - ☁️ Atmosphere — d100 `54` → Corrosive > - 🧬 Life — d100 `86` → Diverse > - 🪐 **Biome Diversity** — d100 `23` → **Simple** > - 🪐 **Biome** — d100 `47` → Hothouse > - 🪐 **Additional biomes** (Simple) — Volcanic > - 🏙️ **Settlements** (Outlands) — d100 `12` → None > - 🏞️ **Surface Feature** — d100 `57` → >Biome Feature > - **Biome Feature (Hothouse)** — d100 `85` → Unusually colored clouds or sky **Obsidian** is the furnace at the heart of things — a **huge volcanic world** whose **corrosive** sky is thick with **unusually colored clouds**, the bruised reds and greens of ash and fire. And yet, impossibly, it is alive: **diverse life** clawed its way out of a **hothouse** of vents and **volcanic** cracks, thriving where nothing should. Twenty-four small **moons** circle it like sparks around a flame. There are **no settlements** — no one builds on a world that eats ships — but the stubborn, defiant biology of Obsidian is the closest thing this system has to a garden, and it makes the whole place quietly unsettling. > [!info] **Boundless Pass — Asteroid Belt 1 (inter-5)** > - **Asteroid Cluster Type** — d100 `58` → Debris field: Frozen asteroids **The Frozen Reach** splits the system in two — a belt of **frozen asteroids**, chunks of primeval ice and rock that never got the chance to melt in the searing inner light. In the cold gap between the crowded inner worlds and the lone outer giant, it drifts like a scatter of glass in the dark. It is a graveyard of the system's birth, but also its pantry: **harvestable ice** for any ship brave or desperate enough to thread the field, and an excellent place to hide a station nobody is meant to find. > [!info] **Boundless Pass g — Sabulo (orbit 6th)** > - 🔥 **Stellar Heat (orbit 6th)** — Warm > - 🪐 **Planetary Class** — d100 `4` → **Desert World** > - ✒️ **Name inspirations** — Pyla, Sabulo, Abalos > - 📏 **Planet Size** — d100 `90` → **Massive** > - 🌍 **World Size** — ~458,000 km circumference · equatorial radius ~72,893 km (~11.43× Earth; range 401-500) > - ⚖️ **Density** — d100 `35` → Moderate > - ⏳ **Gravity** — Massive · Moderate → High > - 🛰️ **Orbital Feature** — d100 `93` → Roll twice > - 🌙 **Moons** (d100 `30`) → **Abundant** (60) > - **Moon Size** — d100 `76` → Major > - **Designation** — g-1 … g-60 > - ☁️ Atmosphere — d100 `2` → None / thin > - 🧬 Life — d100 `49` → Scarce > - 🪐 **Biome Diversity** — d100 `88` → **Intricate** > - 🪐 **Biome** — d100 `28` → Mesa > - 🪐 **Additional biomes** (Intricate) — Salt flat, Steppe, Badlands, Dune > - 🏙️ **Settlements** (Outlands) — d100 `98` → Multiple > - 🏞️ **Surface Feature** — d100 `57` → >Biome Feature > - **Biome Feature (Mesa)** — d100 `64` → Secluded grottos **Sabulo** is the outlier — a **massive** desert world, eleven times Earth's span, riding the system's **warm** outer edge where the hypergiant's fury finally softens into something survivable. The air is **thin**, life **scarce**, but what there is has spread across an **intricate** patchwork of biomes: **mesas**, **salt flats**, **steppes**, **badlands**, and rolling **dunes**. Beneath the mesas hide **secluded grottos**, shelter carved by wind and patience. Sixty large **moons** wheel overhead.

Its air is **corrosive**, its life **extinct**, leaving only a rolling sea of **dunes** scoured by **severe temperature fluctuations** between the searing and the frozen. Yet someone thought it worth colonizing: a **grounded** settlement sits on its surface, a hardy outpost that endures the toxic sky and the endless temperature reversals at the fringe of Sabulo's settled quiet.

By the book's own rule it is treated as an **asteroid**, a lump of rock and ice that wheels around Dykuma in the quiet fringe of Sabulo's light. It has no air, no life, no settlements, nothing but a thin dust of **low gravity** and the patient dark. Yet someone on Dykuma's outpost can look up on the clearest nights and watch **Serein** drift past — a faint, unmoving mote that is, in turn, the nearest thing the far desert world has to a moon of its own.
