"Siren's Calamity" Dynamic-Class Freighter

*Siren's Calamity* is a Dynamic-Class freighter owned and captained by Syndren Varr, and his main/only spacecraft used for a less-than-legal smuggling operation. It is produced by Core Galaxy Systems, a less-than-common model known as a "dynamic-class freighter", which is prided for its excellent customizability and upgrade features, of which Varr has made the most use. The *Calamity* has an available crew roster of 12, able to be successfully flown by 2 (captain and copilot). However, the ship is rarely crewed to full, as Syndren seems to have trouble coercing a consistent crew into having enough loyalty to stick with him.

The ship is meant for long-haul travels, with semi-comfortable sleeping arrangements for 15 crew and guests (combined). The ship boasts an impressive hauling capability of 70T hauls, but with a maximum recommended weight in the hold is 65T. The cargo hold is split into a "main hold" and "sub-hold", the latter of which is hidden within the floor of the main hold and is about 5ft tall, capable of storing maximum 15T of product; this area is accessible only through a complex series of hatches and dupes in the floor, of which individual tiles are pried up to expose the below-deck storage area. It is primarily used to store illicit or illegal product such as drugs, weapons, etc. These are distributed to the highest bidder.

The Captain and Quartermaster of the vessel have separate rooms, meanwhile the other 10 beds are bunk-style sleeping pods separated into 2 rooms for convenience. Each bunk room has a small entertainment center, table, couch, and an adjoining door to the kitchen/kitchenette room which serves as the functional "common room" of the ship. There is a small supply room or pantry meant to stock the supplies of the ship, which are stocked separately from the cargo hold to keep the crew from touching the products too often. *Siren's Calamity* has a small brig and medical bay separate from each other. The beds in the medical bay and brig are the functional "guest quarters" for any stray passengers that *Siren's Calamity* happens to pick up.

Much of the space is allocated for weapons and defense systems, of which the *Siren's Calamity* has many. Built thin and disc-like for maneuverability this freighter in specific suffers from a lack of omnidirectional shielding - relying instead on the projection of ray shields over specific areas of defense. This is a worthy drawback due to Varr's other major customizations to the ship. These ray shields can be moved to any point on the ship, but can only cover around two thirds of the ship's mass at any given time. It is also currently equipped with one large ion cannon located on the central hub-structure, which has the power to entirely disable ships of equal or lesser mass, and brown-out the systems of ships smaller than a Cruiser. Additionally, *Siren's Calamity* boasts 6 laser cannons - 4 light and 2 heavy, and 4 hull-mounted general-purpose warhead launchers capable of firing flak, countermeasures, proton torpedoes, and concussion missiles. *Siren's Calamity* is in possession of an illegally-modified Class 1 hyperdrive, which is hidden within the casing and material of a Class 3 civilian hyperdrive, but is capable of out-speeding all but the best military transports and freighters.
