The modern Fog Ships were “widely acknowledged in the community of interdimensional travellers as some of the best, most comfortable Void Ships in existence”. This was considered a mixed blessing by the [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]], as attempts by other parties to steal Fog Ships for their own end became a concern for them.

Essential components of a Fog Ship included the [[Conceptual engine|engine]], [[dematerialisation circuit]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids (short story)|The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]]'', ''[[The Labors of Juliet (short story)|The Labors of Juliet]]'') [[dimensional warp drive]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Toymaker's Labyrinth (short story)|The Toymaker's Labyrinth]]'') and steering wheel. At least some Fog Ships had [[isomorphic controls]]. [[Juliet the 945th|Juliet]] was once able to extract “a jumble of positronic components and dented wheels” that she could repurpose into a makeshift [[Clockwork Cherub]] from a Fog Ship. She notably used the brakes, without which the Ship rumbled and shook as it took off.
