- Weapons overheat quickly
The Atrax is first and foremost a stealth ship. It excels at this job at the cost of the comfort and safety of its crew. While its stealth systems are engaged, the internal cabin can reach temperatures nearby incompatible with life, forcing its crew to use vacuum suits to regulate their body temperature. It's sub-light engines, while able to afford the vessel extreme maneuverability and speed also require the crew to wear protective suits as they have an unfortunate habit of irradiating the cabin during extended, heavy use.
The vessel is large for its design, requiring excessive amounts of internal space for heat sinks, to mask its signature during stealth. This is offset by its sleek profile and minuscule radar signature. When not overheating or irradiated, its cabin offers the standard features of many starships, a bunk, galley, head, with room enough for 6 individuals to live (albeit uncomfortably).
It's weapon systems also utilise the vessels internal heat sinks and thus are prone to overheating far quicker than standard blaster systems. As such they are used sparingly as each shot can increase the internal cabin temperature by 0.5 degrees celsius. The vessel also stands out amongst many others in the galaxy as a unique design created by an unknown manufacturer. Tyria has spent months working through its internal systems in a hope to discover its source as it may well lead to more answers about her origins, however thus far whenever she is asked about its makers she simply shrugs. Due to this, the vessel (when not in stealth mode) bring a lot of attention, with onlookers slowing or stopping to gawk at the unique hull design.
The vessel is capable of both atmospheric and space flight, in some cases even excelling on colder worlds where it can utilise the planets atmosphere to provide extra cooling. It's current owner, Tyria Koth, has expressed the need for a cooling system to be installed however this is some way off due to the excessive cost of such a system being installed in such an unusual ship.
Tyria uses the Atrax for snatch & grab missions, kidnap jobs, subterfuge, spying and assassinations. She has a small crew of regularlys who's help she enlists for certain missions, otherwise she pilots and lives aboard the Atrax alone.
