Excalibur I

The Excalibur I is a human spaceship, the former flagship of the Imperial Fleet and one of the best known vessels of human history, particularly renowned for being the only vessel capable of superluminal flight without use of a Mandala. 
== Design ==
* a blunt box of exact proportions 3:5:8 (a Fibonacci Sequence), a bit more than half a mile long
* considered one of the ugliest ships of humanity
* as she has similar engines on all sides, she has no visible front or back
* a large, half-spherical indention on one of the larger surfaces, considered 'up'.
* countless visible damage scars, barely patched up breaches and craters
==Origins==
Undoubtedly, the Excalibur I one one of the oldest known vessels of humanity. While her exact origins remain lost, she is already mentioned among the first surviving documents from the first century ET. 
==Urchin Wars==
Barely more than a legend at the beginning of the Urchin War, the Excalibur I was only rediscovered as part of the desperate last effort known as Operation Underhill in 1002 ET. 
She was then retrofitted for a last jump to Geshi N'Ptah (see Operation Gwaihir), where the remaining human forces could deal a deadly blow to N'Ptalinai. 
==Final Berth==
After remaining in orbit around Geshi N'Ptah for many years, the Excalibur was teleported to Lagoona. The Excalibur I has found her final resting place in high orbit around Lagoona, where she remains open to the public, with regular tours offered from Agami. 
She is succeeded by the newly commissioned Excalibur II.
