Made of some sort of bio-metal, it seems to be somewhat sentient, able to repair itself and it occasionally acts on it's own strange whims. What is known that it is incredibly old, perhaps even older than the Wanderer. Registry NRS 1333421Modified Alien ShipUltralightship Subtype: Modified scout Tactical Speed: 3,500 ft.

Weapons:UnknownCommunications: Drive Transceiver (recognizable, but oddly configured)Internal Comms (Still don't know how that works)Alien OriginsThe crew found this ship after detecting a strange distress call in a rather empty bit of space. It allowed itself to be towed into a docking bay and lowered a gangplank of its own volition (they later found that out). After a subsequent search of the ship, they found one lone occupant in some sort of stasis tube. When they approached, the ship activated the tube and revived the occupant, who was found to be from the late 20th or early 21st century Earth. The ship has occasionally revived, once to help fight off bandits and another to rescue Hope from being taken from the Wanderer by some rather unscruplous scientists. In both incidients it has displayed a distressing amount of sentience.</blockquote>
