This spelljammer mini-campaign was played over three sessions in June 2024. In the depths of Voidspace, the gangster Sezza Starburn hires a small group to take the Eon Raven and go recover a mysterious source of arcane power from the ancient prison Civitas Caelorum, deep in Illithidspace.
The characters hired by Sezza to man the Eon Raven were:
Faith Blackreyne - F Tiefling (Theratis) Corsair Paladin / Divine Soul Sorcerer (Daibik)
Zephyr Blackthorn - M Shadar-Kai Shadow Sorcerer (Shivam)
In addition, they were later aided by Prisoner Zero himself, a living-battery construct created in the last days of the Omniborn Crisis.
Deep in Voidspace, crimelord Sezza Starburn controlled much of the space around Draxaria, ruling through Zaerock within the Rings of Zaeria. Faith Blackreyne and Buster worked for her, and two more freelancers were hired, Sylvia and Zephyr. Sezza gave Faith a new ship, that she named the Eon Raven. Their task was to go deep into illithidspace around Alphyth. As they left, they ran into an asteroid field full of destroyed ships, and were attacked by space sharks controlled by Vampires. After defeating the vampirates, they finally made it to Alphyth. Sezza contacted them and had Buster reveal that their true task is to recover “Prisoner Zero” from the Civitas Caelorum, the mind flayer prison citadel. To learn its orbital position, they landed on the moon of Alphyth, Moros, near an abandoned duergar mining outpost called Moros Base 3. They discovered that it was destroyed by something some centuries ago, and went deeper into the subterranean ocean base. There, they discovered the flight logs, but awere attacked by a Protean Abomination consisting of all the dead dwarves. After defeating it, they rested at the base and repaired the Eon Raven.
The next day, they made it to the Civitas Caelorum. They infiltrated the lower levels, sneaking by sensors and mind flayers. They ended up fighting a lot of mind flayers and grell, and finally made it to Prisoner Zero’s cell, who looked like an ancient construct. They fought the illithid known as the Warden, and made it back to the Eon Raven with Prisoner Zero. As they escaped, they were chased by a nautiloid. Prisoner Zero took control of the ship somehow, flying into the upper atmosphere of Alphyth. As he did so, the party defended them from Byakhee. Zero flew the ship out of Alphyth once they’d lost the illithids, jumping to hyperspeed. He revealed that his heart was made up of what he called Dimensium, a near-infinite battery. He was a weapon developed in the Omniborn Crisis, and locked away by the Elves. He told them to go to sleep.
The next day, they reached Dobuna’s orbit. There, Zero took them to an old ruin floating in its orbit, where he recharged himself to 20%. Not wanting to go to Sezza, he fought them, but they ended up taking him down. They promised him that they wouldn't hand over Zero to Sezza, and Zero in exchange shouldn’t fully recharge and wreak havoc on mortals. They headed back to Zaerock, where they were confronted by Sezza. She was saddened by Faith’s betrayal, and lit up a red sunblade. She and her honor guards entered combat, one of the guards even killing Zephyr’s shadow-dog. Faith ended up taking Sezza down, creating a vacuum of power. They thought about taking over her operations, as Zero bid them farewell, flying off into space.
