The ScSS Seraphic, the Pegasus Class starship that will capture the hearts and imaginations of countless fans, today we’re taking a closer look at the various auxiliary craft that make the Seraphic not just a ship but a living, breathing ecosystem of interstellar travel.
The captain’s yacht is more than just a vessel; it’s a symbol of the captain’s authority and the dignity of the ship. It’s used for official functions, diplomatic missions, and critical situations where the captain’s presence is paramount. This craft is designed with elegance and functionality in mind, reflecting the stature of the captain and the importance of their missions. Ejjina has been allowed to have input on decorating the interior.
Starfighters are the agile raptors of space, ready to launch at a moment’s notice to defend the Seraphic from any threat. These small, fast, and maneuverable crafts are piloted by the bravest souls who dare to skim the edges of black holes and dance through asteroid fields. They are the first line of defense and the sharp spear of offensive maneuvers.
Shuttles are the unsung heroes of the Seraphic, versatile crafts that handle everything from cargo transport to crew deployment. Named after the cities of Baraben Prime, the planet where the Seraphic was constructed, these shuttles embody the spirit of exploration and diversity that the Seraphic stands for.
The Hammerwings are the tactical enforcers of the fleet, equipped with state-of-the-art weaponry and defense systems. They serve as both protectors and enforcers, ensuring the safety of the Seraphic and its mission, often used like Battlestar Galactica’s raptors for recon in dangerous areas, or as support craft in battles, attacking from above or challenging the enemy computer systems. Their presence is a reassurance to the crew and a warning to any who would dare challenge the might of the Seraphic.
Behind every successful mission are the skilled hands of the Piloting Department. These dedicated individuals are responsible for the navigation and piloting of the Seraphic and all its auxiliary craft and have wings on their right arm to show they are licensed. From shuttlecraft to Hammerwings to starfighters, the Chief Pilot Officer Jovan Johnson and his team ensure that every journey is a safe one.
The ScSS Seraphic is more than just a ship; it’s a beacon of hope and adventure in the vast expanse of space. Its auxiliary craft are the limbs that enable it to reach out into the unknown, to explore new worlds, and to protect the ideals it carries. As we continue to follow the adventures of the Seraphic and its crew, we can’t help but be inspired by the boundless possibilities that lie ahead.
One thing that has always annoyed me is the size of shuttles in Star Trek, some look smaller than some modern cars, yet are supposed to have all the starship tech in miniature. When 4 people have been away from the starship for a week they are all shown in one small shuttle… Where have they slept? Showered? Pooped? Shuttles should be the size of a small house, or plane, they have to have major space for engines, etc and this means they are large.
