Arcona-Week3

Logos is an organic, living starship capable of independent thought. It forms a symbiotic relationship with its pilot, a near-telepathic link. It is composed predominantly of biological components rather than manufactured materials, giving it a distinctive organic appearance. It can also slowly heal from space battle damage over time.

Characteristics

Zonama Sekot’s seed partner chamber.

While the Jedi Master Tannil, as the original owner of the ship, was able to individualize the Logos, each ship created by Zonama Sekot maintains several similar qualities as determined by the planet itself. Logos shares a similar configuration to the other ships created by Sekot, including the standard three lobed design, while still exhibiting the rugged, squat schema that Tannil envisioned.

The larger central lobe contains the crew areas, as well as the bulk of the ship’s systems, while the two outboard lobes contain the engines. Unlike many other Sekotan ships, these engine pods do not directly flank the main fuselage and are instead mounted outboard on the ends of the wings. Tannil made this choice during construction as he felt it would allow for the craft to use varied engine thrust settings to offer high maneuverability. This change also forced the main sensors to be mounted within the short wings that join the cockpit and engines as opposed to their traditional mounting place on wingtips.

The internal systems of the ship bond the various seed partners with organoform circuits in order to interface the organic and inorganic components. These circuits are very similar in nature to the crystalline structures used by Darth Bane in his endeavour to recreate holocrons through moving microscopic hairs of crystal in line to form a latticework of data storage. Like holocrons, these are similar to the interlinked web of neurons in the brain. As a result, the organoform circuits aboard ‘’Logos’’ offer massive data storage potential and contain a nearly complete copy of the Jedi Archives on Coruscant.

Despite being unarmed, the vessel’s speed and durability give it a survival edge in combat. The massive infusion of Force energy it received, first from the Jedi and later from the Arconan Sith, allow it to act as a focus to amplify the force abilities of the pilot within it. This functions much like the Sith Meditiation Spheres created by the ancient Sith Empire millennia ago.
