| Description | The allure of Crude Matter brought computation and humanity to the Frontier. As life reawakens, so too does the thirst for power in all its forms, including from the most mundane sources. Even in the face of the Static Shear, ice still litters the heavens. From its crystals, hydrogen may be extracted, reprocessed, and refined into fuel. This product, inefficient as it is, still drives the smallest vessels of the Frontier via its abundance and minimal cost. |
