Description:
The “harpoon” is typical of the quest-ships traditionally built by the kahdonni when one of their number embarks on a death-quest. Built to the highest specifications, with money no object, these ships are sacred to their pilots, the chariot that bears them to their final glory. The intended pilot is usually present during every phase of the ship's design and construction, a ritual that can take several months.
A typical quest-ship is designed to combat multiple targets simultaneously, firing on several targets at once as they storm through battle lines. Intricate control systems allow the pilot to use manual systems, verbal commands, cybernetic implants and intricate gestures to command the ship.
