DESCRIPTION​

The origins of the Dralaalar start at the point when @Hauron Solus won it at auction. Its history prior to that is unknown to Hauron at this time. It had a different name then but has since been given the Mando'a word for passion, though it more literally translates to "intense feeling". Some of the modifications made to the carrier are only known to a select few while obvious ones are hard to hide.

At first Rancor Squadron struggled to fill the crew stations of the ship. With time and continued recruitment efforts the Dralaalar has also gained a full flight compliment that remain onboard at all times as passengers when not out on missions. Modifications have been made to the storage area of the carrier to hold bounties as well. These are under high security and meant to be a holding place for bounties while hunters are traveling. The large cargo capacity of the Dralaalar has been slightly impacted due to the needs of the ship's bounty hold.

While the ship is capable of holding 72 starfighters and bombers, the shuttle compliment is usually made up of the various personal craft Rancor Squadron uses. Sometimes visiting craft from outsiders will be allowed to board the ship via the hangar but this is only under close supervision. More often than not, close by airlocks are used and these are only with trusted outsiders. Sometimes ground vehicles are stored in the hangar or are staged there before being intended to take outside. It is a large enough space that sometimes this is used as additional recreational space and social gatherings or for training purposes.

The weapon systems of the Dralaalar have been reduced from their factory state in an effort to focus energy on the engines. If that was not enough, the same auction that Hauron won the Dralaalar he earned three additional raider class corvettes. These are frequently seen guarding the carrier and even dock with it directly from time to time. The carrier itself holds a large number of ships which can be scrambled to attack and defend in equal measure.

The carrier has had its thrust settings de-limited. However this and fusial afterburners are normally disabled and only used for short periods of time and for only emergencies. This has made it one of the less known modifications to the ship.

The ship has had its interior changed from its standard configuration. This has been done in an effort to confuse and hinder any would-be boarding parties. Locked hatches, compartments and hallways have been hidden throughout the ship that can be avoided by various scanners and even close investigation. Unrelated, though just as important are the many starx yellow box emergency vessel repair kit with welding putty of the same name. All permanent passengers and crew are trained to use these tools to patch and maintain their nomadic home.

LEGALITY​

Restricted. Berex-class carriers are naturally classified as capital ships under Galactic law, and possess the ability to carry and support large numbers of military craft. As such, civilian owners will require extra licensing to operate one legally, and will receive increased scrutiny by authorities.

INTENT​

To have a custom and modified Berex carrier for Rancor Squadron. Acquired in an auction here. It will serve as a setting for threads, HQ for faction ops and home for various PCs.

RESTRICTIONS​

The Berex-class carrier is a large capital ship with a high starfighter capacity, and capital ships cannot be owned or operated by individual characters. They can be acquired as faction assets with proper staff oversight, however. Fusial afterburner make it incompatible with other mods except thrust delimiter. Furthermore it suffers the normal negatives from using the thrust delimiter (when engaged).
