 The Crataeis is a unique ship, certainly a first for the [[..:military:navy]], in that it is an organic ship. Whereas many ships in the past relied heavily on organic components, the Crataeis is a single organism, with its various organs denoting systems.  The Crataeis is a unique ship, certainly a first for the [[..:military:navy]], in that it is an organic ship.

-**Appearance: The Crataeis is a long and sleek ship, with the best word to describe it as Sleek. The bow of the ship comes to a definite point, albeit a rounded one, followed by a rather sharp incline before turning in to the majority of the length of the ship, which is a gentle incline towards the Stern, where the Bridge and Captain’s quarters are. The entirety of the ship is very smooth, and lacking of hard point or lines. The ship covered with silvery scales that glisten like that of a fish, with the surface occasionally turning into gentle bulges which contain weapon systems. +Appearance: The Crataeis is a long and sleek ship, with the best word to describe it as Sleek.

Line 132: Line 132:
 Instead of going for a weapon that could destroy multiple targets as other Gun-ships possessed, the designers of the Crataeis instead improved upon an existing Elysian technology to create a devastating weapon when fired against a single target. The weapon functions by firing a large pulse of anti-matter plasma which is phased outside of the universe for a time. This means that it easily passes through shields and partially through the hull of the ship before it returns to this universe. The anti-plasma appearing inside the hull, or even inside the main body of the ship, is usually significant enough to either destroy the vessel or a very large section of it.  Instead of going for a weapon that could destroy multiple targets as other Gun-ships possessed, the designers of the Crataeis instead improved upon an existing Elysian technology to create a devastating weapon when fired against a single target.

 The Crataeis uses numerous weapon pods, which take the form of smooth bulges placed over its hull and granting complete coverage of all angles. Each of the pods fires a transphased high energy electro-magnetic beam of significant power, which can actually phase through shields. Each of the pods have a maximum output of 150,000 PetaWatts.  The Crataeis uses numerous weapon pods, which take the form of smooth bulges placed over its hull and granting complete coverage of all angles.
