Klingon Raptor MK I

Description
The Klingon Raptor MK I ship is based on the Klingon Raptor Class, Somraw ship of the Klingon Empire. It was an early scout and war vessel in the Star Trek Universe. Once the Klingons started to build starships in the Avorion universe, they needed a cheap, durable, and upgraded vessel. The Bird of Prey was to fill that role. However, initial trials determined that the Bird of Prey, in the Avorion universe, was proving to be a bit lack luster. As a result, the Klingon corps of engineers within Avorion space decided to try an older ship, the Raptor. While the Raptor is smaller, lacks sheer firepower and power generation than the Bird of Prey or the Negh'Var (that were both recently built for Avorion space), it does make up for a cheap vessel that could take a decent hit and still remain functional. The Klingon Raptor MK I ship is relatively cheap and a good, decent starting vessels for either a player or a Klingon looking to either Mine, Salvage, do small Cargo runs, or early combat. Since this is a Starter ship, it does not have access to advance materials and thus, no shields. It does come with three torpedo launchers, two forward and one aft facing and a total of Torpedo Storage Space of 41. It is a bit lacking on power - which can be a concern in high speed chases or escapes, though.


The Klingons are an aggressive empire and species within the Star Trek Universe. They are a humanoid warrior species that originated from the planet Qo'noS (pronounced Kronos), an M-class planet in the Beta Quadrant. Klingon society is extremely complex. The Klingons are proud, tradition-bound people who valued honor and combat. The aggressive Klingon culture had made them an interstellar military power to be respected and feared. While the casual observer thinks that Klingons are only warriors; the fact is they have scientists, craftsman, chefs, merchants, lawyers, and engineers like any other advance species. In fact, the non-warrior portion of the Klingon society is just as proud and aggressive as the warriors. A Colony ship full of Klingons were recently reported missing. These colonists had been victim to some sort of temporal anomaly that transported them to the Avorion Universe. As a result, the Klingons here have started to integrate themselves to the Avorion way of life and started to adapt their Starship design to Avorion Starships. This is but one example of this.
