Walls
Structure walls vary drastically in makeup, ranging from natural, unworked solid stone to reinforced starship bulkheads (though stranger walls exist). While they are typically incredibly difficult to break down or through, they’re generally easy to climb. Table 11–9: Walls contains information on the most common types of walls found in structures.
Wall Type | Typical Thickness | Break DC | Hardness | Hit Points* | Athletics DC (to Climb) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Concrete | 3 ft. | 45 | 15 | 540 | 25 |
Plastic | 5 in. | 25 | 8 | 75 | 28 |
Starship bulkhead | 5 ft. | 55 | 35 | 2,400 | 25 |
Starship interior | 3 ft. | 45 | 30 | 1,440 | 20 |
Steel | 3 in. | 30 | 20 | 90 | 25 |
Unworked stone | 5 ft. | 65 | 15 | 900 | 15 |
Wooden | 6 in. | 20 | 5 | 60 | 21 |

Whether the interior walls or the bulkheads that form the outside of the ship, these walls are among the strongest. While they are most commonly used in starship construction, they’re also commonplace in highend planetary structures, such as research stations and military installations.

These walls are commonly used within structures of import, such as vaults or older military headquarters. Source Core Rulebook pg. 408 |
Hewn walls usually result when a chamber or passage is tunneled out of solid rock. Unworked stone is uneven and rarely flat. The rough surface of stone walls frequently provides minuscule ledges where fungus grows and fissures where bats, subterranean snakes, and vermin live. Source Core Rulebook pg. 408 |
Wooden walls often exist as recent additions to preexisting structures, used to create animal pens, storage bins, and temporary structures, or just to make a number of smaller rooms out of a larger one. Source Core Rulebook pg. 408 |
