In the meantime, the crew would presumably preserve the body in a separate chamber or specialized body bag. There are some starting options, but this part of the game creation process is at the will of the GM. The fact that you can move 15 meters is only vaguely relevant as there is no mention made of what distance means in combat apart from not being able to stab someone. Most of all, it is about surviving in an abandoned frontier system where resources are scarce, and competition is fierce.

From there, you can start using roll charts to set up the HUB background (separated by Spacecraft and Station), and HUB quirk (such as dimmed lights or shaking violently when the engine runs on maximum). In addition to the basic rules and setting outlined above, there is a brief gazetteer of the Tenebris System, including descriptions of key locations and four prominent cults.

Long-distance ones, on the other hand, take place thanks to a technology that humanity has found in space, which allows jumps from one structure to another, located at distances otherwise insuperable even with cryogenic sleep. But all those scenarios would apply only if someone died in a pressurized environment, like a space station or a spacecraft. Many of these manifestations are disturbing but don’t contain specific game rules, but some manifestations, like the Anarchy Program, can turn into a progressive degradation that renders the PC an NPC.
