Pebble

The Pebble is a spaceship owned by the ducal family of Erys. Originally built during the Lost Years on Erys, she was refurbished several times and is considered on of the most durable ships of the empire.  These days, she is best known for being the personal yacht of Lotus Knight Sir Yaden Quetzal and featuring frequently in his missions and the resulting movies. 
== History ==
Renowned for its missions during the Black-and-White War under the command of Duke Dimitrios Quetzal, where she acted as a blockade runner during the Siege of Espen and played a crucial role during the final battle over Kalidor. 
During an eruption of Mount Meruae in 2243 ET, she was buried under molten rock on the landing field of Cerisia spaceport. While the ship itself remained mostly undamaged, its armour plating fused with the lava and rendered the ship unsalvageable. 
For years, the buried ship was the playground of young Yaden Quetzal, and his grandfather bequeathed the ship to him in his last will.
When Yaden Quetzal returned to Erys in 2275 ET, he unearthed the Pebble and had her teleported to Floor for refurbishing. Subsequently, the ship became part of the events of 'The Bloodied Broom'. 
== Design ==
The Pebble was designed as a blockade breaker, though in this case, this assignment was taken literally. The ship mostly consists of over-dimensioned Ngcolosi Shields and skeintilt buffers, plus a respectable armouring, allowing her to acutally ram enemy vessels at significant speeds. 
This comes at the cost of maneuvrability, and she flies 'like a thrown brick', as Duke Dimitrios Quetzal never got tired of pointing out. 
== Tech Specs ==
* a triple set of grade seven skeintilt buffers
* two mark 21 Ardenberg fusion generators with synched blindswitch reload capacity
* a Decollimation Field and a prototype 'cloaking shield'
* load-bearing extensions for the skein cradle
* an umbani setting for the energy shields
