DESCRIPTION
As technology reversed long after colonization, the wind-ships were their fastest means of transportation of goods and people over the Rimesea from the other continents. Merchant vessels were at times attacked by Pirate Warlords like Malan Durane. The Trepidation is the lead frigate wind-ship in Malan's fleet on the wildspace planet of Weik. It is his own personal wind-ship, capable of holding up to 124 cannons, and up to 60 crew. Intimidating in size and firepower, the Trepidation often broadsided it's victims and lay assault by its multiple cannons before Malan's crew boarded it to capture and acquire both it's cargo and it's crew/passengers.

As always, the Captain's quarters were lavishly decorated and Malan was careful with which items were up for display and which of his possessions were held elsewhere. The crew slept in hammocks strewn about the crew's quarters. The kitchen and stores were well stocked for the often months long journeys overseas. The brig was available for combative prisoners, and the infirmary was there to patch up many an injury from battle.

Reinforced by durasteel, the most vulnerable parts of the ship, such as the bow, stern, keel, hull and masts were harder to destroy by cannon fire of opposing vessels. The transparasteel windows were also more difficult to break than the average glass. Smaller vessels were not so well protected and it's the Trepidation's longevity in battles that help spread it's legend of terror through the Rimesea

Malan Durane , this is a refreshing submission to see.

• Manufacturer: Tunaak Shipbuilders

At this time, all manufacturers have to be hyperlinked to a factory company submission, wookieepedia article, or a character biography.

As possible suggestions, you could make a company submission for the Tunaak Shipbuilders (perhaps they are the warlord's personal shipyard, etc). Or alternatively, I might suggest making this "unique" and listing the manufacturer as "Malan Durane" (and linking to your character bio) and crew or something similar to that.

If you have other ideas that you might think work, let me know and we'll see what we can do!

I'll just have to link it to myself then. Been a looong time since I've done a sub like this. And there are no companies around to do it. Subbing a company for something that won't be in demand is far too much trouble just to get one ship approved...lol.


On my mobile, so finding links is super fun... not Will let you know whenit's ready.
