- Regiment section-
- This area of this ship houses limited bunks for the Regiment under the command of Darth Pellax. These are the only servicemen who have allotted personal space and facilities to maintain them. From gyms, baths, mess hall, bunks and recreational spaces there is enough comfort for a soldier.
- Retainer Training Center-
- An area of the ship with many kinds of classrooms and facilities to ensure elevated slaves can acquire education for later duties as servants.
- Training Sphere-
- This space is the largest open area of this vessel. Inside the room itself is a modular floor connected to a system of conveyors that alter the terrain inside. Depending on the extreme of the environment can alter how long the preparation time needs to set up.
There is more than meets the eye to this room at first glance. The sphere has been augmented with various Nightsister runes and Dark Side empowered crystals to create the illusion of an endless repeating landscape, allowing the uninterrupted advance from one end of the chamber to the other without ever reaching a definite end.
The sphere was modified in this manner on behalf of Darth Carnifex, Dark Lord of the Kainate, for His apprentice and concubine, Darth Pellax, so that she could utilize her unique powers and abilities during extensive training.
- Darth Pellax’s area-
- This area located visibly in front of the sphere, is a large personal area comparable to the size of a manor for the owner of the vessel. Each detail has been fine tuned for maximum comfort while following the Kainite Panathan architectural and interior style throughout each room.
Going through the space one would see grand arches and rich tones of reds and golds being contrasted by black and imperial greys. Ornate pillars climb from floor to ceiling with ur-Kittât inscriptions carved into the stone. In recesses are varying statues depicting the Dark Valkyries imitating Darth Pellax’s likeness.
The floor’s too are mixtures of black stones. Slate bordered the edges of most large rooms where a matte marble took most walking space. These stone floors are generally heated maintaining a consistent temperature. Atop the stone floor in most rooms are long soft carpets or rugs of varying shapes and sizes.
However there is one thing that gives a sense of incompleteness. Starting from the entrance an artistic frieze sprawled along the walls, raised icons and symbols depicting various points in Teresa’s life were displayed alongside various Sith hieroglyphics typically spanning only a few sentences or even singular words.
The Dark Lord of the Kainate, Darth Carnifex, had commissioned the construction of the frieze to display the winding and storied history of His apprentice, and to better instil an appreciation for the histories of the galaxy within her. Despite her lackadaisical attitude towards the concept of history and the existence of the frieze itself, the Dark Lord has it routinely updated.

- Exceptional Training Facilities -
- The Sphere is a modular training facility that allows the input to mimic many kinds of biomes. From grassland to desert and frozen tundra to volcanic magma there is no limit to the types of training that can be done. There are even personally selected environments locked behind special passwords.
- Retainer educational classrooms offer wide ranges of basic education required to perform varying tasks of a servant. The few who grace these facilities are often slaves chosen for their aptitudes to serve well. For some this is a better life of purpose. These facilities being run by Darth Pellax’s head retainer also offer spaces for simple arts like textiles, culinary, ur-Kittât Calligraphy, music, drawing/painting. No doubt more equipment to facilitate simple desire would be accumulated over time.
- Make a derelict into a home - This place is more than a vessel of responsibility and pride to push oneself, it is a place of rest and relaxation. Spacious personal spaces were made for Darth Pellax offering everything she needs to live with comfort and improve other fields naturally in personal time. This space is home to more than just Darth Pellax herself, but is the home for future offspring, Head Retainer Komi and selected retainers who excelled in training who are to attend the sith.
- Where's the captain? - This Vessel is remote operated due to the lack of service crew quarters to operate this ship for long travel. Only a minimum service crew operate on this ship that maintains the systems but are not stationed on board. During times of close conflict, this vessel is completely reliant on Malsheem. If this known, this Ship becomes an easy target.
- Weak point - The sphere is one big room meaning enough damage can compromise the structural integrity. Worst case scenario is the ship will break in two. This ship's first primary purpose is to suit the owners needs, being a warship is not one.
Ascent-class Star Destroyer, The Drepane, once the once Allegiance Class Star Destroyer, has a unique history. After the fall of the Zweihander Union the captain of this vessel became a warlord terrorising regions in the Kessel sector. Their actions caught the attention of other nefarious types leading to a small-scale battle. While the star destroyer won the battle, it was no victory. Their resources of fighters and modified shuttles became parts of the graveyard.
This was not the most concerning part issue as many subsystems became damaged. Engines, Communications, shield generators all were inoperable. Since no one was able to claim the job had been completed, the task fell into the hands of Teresa weeks later. On the discovery of the vessel the woman landed. The remaining crew held their attack using this as an opportunity to seize and capture. What they got was an absolute massacre that lasted days, eventually closing the contract.
Teresa never disclosed the location and used the ship as a place to return to, a hideout of sorts. It became a beneficial place for resting to heal and even adapting further to the changes of her body after experimentation. The bottom hanger was turned to a place to sleep and gather collections of weapons taken from fallen foe.
For a long time this place remained dormant, remaining untouched and used while Teresa found a home within the Kainite empire, however unable to let go of her biggest trophy, there became a new temporary use for the Star destroyer becoming a place for her head retainer Komie to train more servants. Not till her master, The Dark Lord of the Kainate, Darth Carnifex visited the location was more envisioned for the derelict ship. Eventually the star destroyer was brought to the shipyards of Malsheem where it underwent transformation.
Once completed the only reminiscent parts of the once Allegiance Class was the classic wedge shape. To incorporate all the modifications, the size was made larger in length and width. In the largest section of The Drepane is a sphere that is by far the most noticeable feature of the ship from its exterior. It is due to the space consumption that this vessel operates with a skeleton crew and is completely reliant on Malsheem to operate.
