Description: While the Jocasta-Class Lite Corvette is an adequate transport and defense vessel for a Jedi on a mission, the vessels often fail to live up to the needs of the Jedi Shadows, whose missions often require greater stealth and secrecy. To fill this need, Kian Karr commissioned the creation of the Taria-Class Light Corvette, named after famed Jedi Shadow Taria Damsin. Like the Jocasta-Class, the Taria-Class focuses on defense over armament. However, unlike the Jocasta-Class, the Taria-Class comes with much greater focus on steath and secrecy, with advanced encryption, sensor, jamming, and communication systems. Additionally, the presence of thrust dampers and stygian-triprismatic polymer makes the vessels much harder to detect. Also unlike the Jocasta-Class, the Taria-Class is limited to Jedi Knights and Jedi Masters of the Jedi Shadows.
