The Fallen Spear is a Autochthonian Dragon-Class Skirmisher owned by Muz Keibatsu Sadow.
Design and Origins
The prototypical Dragon-Class skirmisher was designed for the High Lord Darrow of the Autochthonian System. Fulfilling many roles, the ship filled a gap in the Autochthonian navy between ships of the line and smaller fighters and specialized craft.
With a smaller hangar bay, capable of holding 10 - 15 fighters as well as a well stocked cargo bay, the Dragon-Class's main tactics are to drop out of hyperspace with all guns blaring, and a stream of fighters erupting from it's bay. The main armament is heavy enough to take down nearly anything, thanks to a combination of heavy turbolasers, ion cannons and assault-grade concussion missiles. Heavy shield and a good number of turrets help protect the ship from fighters and capital ship alike.
Unfortunately, after a run of just four Dragon-class skirmishers, the Autochthonian parliament deemed the ship too costly for full construction and implementation, leaving the High Lord Darrow discretionary deployment of the prototypes. Keeping one for himself, the High Lord retired two to the Kilchrennan Avionics museum, assigned one to the Bestvar Military outpost, and gifted the remaining one to a Jedi Knight who had saved his life on several occasions.
Aqcuisition
The Fallen Spear, the ship gifted to Muz Ashen, was outfitted with several different prototypical technologies. Nanite camoflaging serves as a highly effective cloaking device, and compliments the Hybridium cloaking device and sensor mask quite well. A recombinant particle arranger is situated in the ship's kitchen, using raw elements to create foodstuffs at the molecular level. And most crucial, a highly advanced AI system has been installed on the ship, allowing the ship to be effectively piloted by a single person.
The AI entity is called Vasic, and has feminine programming, and a helpful demeanor. She is programmed to take orders from Muz Ashen and Captain Darius Blackwind, as well as anyone they grant access to. Vasic understands commands given in Coruscanti, Autoch, and Kyataran, but has not been programmed to speak in Kyataran. It is important to note that all of the consoles and control panels are labelled in Autoch, although Vasic can readily translate them.
Certain features have been incorporated into the ship by it's new owner, such as a dojo facility, an alchemic lab and workshop, and several adjustments to the Captain's quarters. The weaponry of Autochthonian ships is generally built deeper into the hull than average ships, and those unfamiliar with the sight of Autoch ships are quite likely to not notice the heavy armament of this ship.
The specific alterations to the Fallen Spear make it ideally suited to Ashen's tactics of stealth, sudden onslaught and rapid exit rather than typical capital ship tactics of exchanging volleys.
