HMIV Renton

His Majesty's Imperial Vessel Renton was a first phase Parliament Class cruiser introduced during the Second Gretian Invasion of Pandora in the 1230s and saw service in the Ikisian War before being permanently stationed in the north. She was laid down in Bannean with her sister ship, HMIV King Edward II. 
In 1286, the Renton joined the fleet in the north after repairs in New Cae. Later that year she participated in the Battle of New Hybris and the Battle of Haven. In May of 1287, while on scouting missions near the Sea of Garman, she ran aground in a swamp, scraping her hull against a boulder, tearing it open. Within days, the Novacians attacked the deserted ship, killing 34 of her defense crew, and capturing one. Before destroying the vessel, the Novacians captured 10 of its Gatling guns, their ammunition stores, some various pieces of culture, and a mysterious device.
Kordynian newspapers leapt on the raid as a victory against the encroaching Gretians, as panic of invasion was increasing. They erroneously placed the Renton as further out to sea, and exaggerated the battle.
