Sparrows

The Sparrow is a land-based vehicle much like a motorcycle speeder. 
==Design==
Sparrows are lightweight, fast-moving craft designed to provide Guardians with a way to quickly get around on a planetary surface. Little more than a drive engine, antigrav system, steering system, and seat, the Sparrow is lightweight, fast, and maneuverable, capable of getting a Guardian into or out of danger, and its small size means it is easily acquired from Transmat Networks. Sparrows come in a dizzying array of colors and styles, ranging from simple versions favored to powerful, custom-built versions with unique drive engines and options such as rotational thrusters or strafing engines. Steering is managed via the pedals, whilst the hand grips control thrust and braking mechanisms. A comms system and sensor suite is located right in front of the driver's seat.
The Sparrow is not a combat vehicle. While it is fast and relatively hard to hit, it is also rather fragile and easily destroyed by enemy fire, and gives next to no cover whatsoever to its rider. Sparrows can, however, run down smaller enemies, especially more advanced versions that are both faster and offer a tougher chassis. The Sparrow is prone to rolling over if used carelessly. Some Sparrows, fitted with strafe or rotational thrusters, have less of a problem with this drawback, but for many Guardians, the Sparrow needs to be handled with caution, or it can be quite capable of capsizing at an inopportune time. Additionally, certain Sparrows are equipped with the ability to boost into overdrive at a much higher extent than normal, but extreme caution must be used as the Sparrow will explode if the overdrive is used too much.
After taking enough damage, a Sparrow will fire its engines and launch itself as a projectile, exploding on impact and causing damage to anything nearby.
==Stats==
The durability and speed of the Sparrow directly corresponds to its rarity.
