Some types of [[Void Ship|interdimensional vessels]], such as [[hypership]]s, could be used to shift artificially if one did not have personal shifting powers, in some cases by means of a [[dimensional shift engine]]. However, not all interdimensional vessels were described as “shifting”. | Some types of [[Void Ship|interdimensional vessels]], such as [[hypership]]s, could be used to shift artificially if one did not have personal shifting powers, in some cases by means of a [[dimensional shift engine]].

When people who weren't shifters themselves shifted for the first time, they would sometimes experience a feeling similar to being mildly inebriated or intoxicated. This wore off after a few minutes.
