Saltmarsh backgrounds
Several new Background appeared in GoS:
Fisher: Fishing IS possible in the Astral Sea, but it is NOT a body of water.
Marine: replace Vehicles (Land) with Vehicles (Space) if you're a Wildspace native. Don't if you're a groundling new to space. This gives you skill in space, of course, but also with the ship while landed in a body of water, which is different. Land vehicles won't come into play much. A spelljammer can fly over the land.
Shipwright: The abilities here are limited to a WATER vehicle. If the ship isn't capable of water landings, a Shipwright can't fix it. It also needs to be made of wood, of course. In space a Mending spell does much better, anyhow. Of course, a Shipwrigt who learned Vehicles (Space) rather than (or in addition to) Vehicles(Water) CAN design and build a spelljamming ship. Carpentry is used for Wooden hulls, Blacksmith for Metal hulls.
Smuggler: If a Space native: replace Vehicles (water) with Vehicles (Space)
