YSS Battle of Elysia

Captained by Keiu Anrui, the YSS Battle of Elysia is an Izanagi-Class Dreadnought.

The YSS Battle of Elysia was named after the Battle of Elysia, but is nicknamed Elly. This battle was pivotal in convincing the Elysians to join the Yamatai Star Empire. It was constructed in YE 41 and was a part of the Battle Of Glimmergold (a battle from which another Izanagi has been named!).

In YE 44 it participated in the Arrival of the Norians alongside the YSS Battle of Yamatai, another Izanagi-class dreadnought.

It provided food aid and relief while also preparing to move a huge amount of the Norian fleet with its transportation array, but this did not come to pass as an old enemy of the Norians arrived in a frenzy and made safe transport impossible.

The Battle of Elysia is part of the First Fleet's First Division. She is the largest class of starship that Star Army of Yamatai fields and her IRN is NF-S1-03.

The people on the Elly are a serious but supportive bunch while on duty. They understand the meaning of teamsmanship and work hard to perform their duty. They don't hold back and will be honest with one another while working, which leads to each one of them feeling like they can both contribute to their work and lend a hand or advice when others ask for it. There are between 5,000 and 50,000 people working on it, depending on if it's casual or combat operation, so this isn't true for every single one of them. When off-duty everyone is very relaxed and happy to be where they are.

The bridge crew includes a weapons operator with a shaggy orange fringe and a supportive helm officer that works her controls via SPINE only. The sensors operator is a tanned Geshrin who has scruffy stubble and sapphire blue eyes. The missions operator is named Renée and has a way of using her hands and emphasizing particular words while she speaks.

Here's an automatic list of all characters currently in this place (based on structured data from their character pages).

Though some Izanagi have aerial football arenas, this area has been transformed into a large indoor swimming facility, onsen, and theater area where most crewmen enjoy their recreational time. There is also a small fishery sectioned here, as well. Panels move into place during combat operations to ensure all the water doesn't move about, even if gravity controls fail.

Some of the businesses that are within the Elly are:

1. Heaven's Sake — pronounced Heaven's “sah-keh,” it is a play on the phrase 'For heaven's sake' but pronounced like the the popular alcoholic drink sold therein. Most refer to is as Heaven's colloquially and it is the ship's own signature restaurant. The interior is segmented into a lounge, a dining room, and a special private omakase room. The lounge serves appetizers and drinks and has plush leather seats, low lights, and ballpoint pen drawings on the walls. The dining room has chrome full-body statues of some lesser known Ketsurui women and large tree statues bisecting it. The pink sakura petals drape overhead of diners who enjoy traditional and modern takes on Yamataian cuisine, such as Sushi. Dishes might be tuna tartare with salmon caviar, marinated trout in a nodashi jelly topped with uni, or asalmon carpaccio with truffle soy sauce and olives. For dessert there are ceremonial green tea cakes or a yuzu lattice over ice cream.
2. Ramen To Go, a noodle chain
3. Sam's Island is a pristine bar known for its huge wine and rum selection, island-themed decor, coconut shrimp, and hibachi grill shows.
4. Sea Of Plenty, a cheap sushi chain
5. Star Army Post Office
6. Star Pillows
7. Kagayaki Cosmetics Day Spa
8. Yuuko's Undies

The YSS Battle of Elysia responds to threats the Star Army of Yamatai or its allies may face.

It's said that the XO is actually the MEGAMI. That would explain why Keiu Anrui is moderately low ranking for an Izanagi captain and why the XO is almost never seen except during sleeping hours.

There is a stockpile of costume wings.
