SPECIAL FEATURES
The luxury space yacht is a type of ship dating back centuries, with one of the more famous being the Nubian used by the Royal House of Naboo.
This though is a different era from the stagnant peace of the Old Republic, and ships must not only be luxurious but also armed well enough to resist the predations of enemies.
SYI Industries, a minor (NPC) company on Coruscant had been supplying ships of this kind for years. Their owner, Alexei Yerevan, survived Republics, Sith and Alliances by being the ultimate pragmatic businessman. One of these deals was with Enyo Typhos and Amara Zarides, who had broken into his compound after being hired for espionage work. Instead, with money and one of his new ships he co-opted them to fight a new shared enemy; Archangel.
The Quasar was an exclusive ship for only the richest clients, and Enyo and Amara received one to be their base of operations. Taking that ship, they then modified it, making the engines and manoeuvre thrusters enhanced, and added some more powerful weapons as well.
The Quasar has a minimum crew of 4; pilot, co-pilot/navigator, gunner and engineer, though a dedicated navigator and communications specialist can also be added. In total the ship can hold a dozen crew and passengers comfortably.
The sleek hull of the Quasar is protected by light armour plating and deflector shields. It is not designed for combat though, and is better served using its speed and agility to flee from combat.
[SIZE=11pt]The ship serves as a perfect base of operations for Enyo and Amara, being both comfortable, fast and well protected.[/SIZE]

SPECIAL FEATURES
- Has concealed, shielded cargo compartments capable of hiding 12 adult humanoids or 120kg of cargo.
- Has ray shield cage just inside the entrance to trap intruders.
- Weapons can be concealed in the hull. The two main turrets can be auto fired or manually manned.
- Has living quarters, entertainment area, training room, armoury and even a conference room.
- Long range holo-communicator installed.
- Gravitic Modulators and Thrust Trace Dampeners to attempt to escape detection.
- Has a cargo hold for 3 tonnes of regular cargo. It also has consumables for 6 months.
- Fast. The Quasar is a fast, agile ship. It is able to evade most ships and can defend itself from those it can’t.
- Fangs. Though of course under armed for a combat ship, the Quasar has some pretty surprising concealed weapons, allowing it to hit surprisingly hard before escaping.
- Features. As a top of the line yacht with after-market upgrades, the Quasar is both comfortable and very functional.
- Fragile. Though it boasts decent shields, the hull plating is lightweight. Sustained fire by even a heavy corvette will punch through it very quickly. The Quasar is not a combat ship.
- Armament. Despite its concealed weapons, this ship is not useful against anything larger than attack craft. Its twin turbolasers lacks the sustained power to damage even most corvettes, let alone anything larger.
- Distinctive. The Quasar is very distinctive, and the modifications made to it make it hard to maintain or replace parts from.
