The Stayaow class Combat Scout is a TL–13 Combat Scout. It fulfills the role and functions of a wartime reconnaissance craft.

Description

Designed to fill the functions of a wartime reconnaissance craft, the Stayaow-class Combat %out is a military vessel first and last. It is thus more effective in this role but less versatile overall than the smaller Imperial Type S class Scout/Courier. The Combat Scout is found in many parts of Hierate space, but the particular model shown is only one example of many designs, which vary according to the shipyard, owner, or manufacturer. This model, the Stayaow (often translated as "Intrepid Scout" or "Valiant Pioneer") was manufactured by the shipbuilding firm Larleaftea Hryawaowya and is in the service of the Aslan mercenary unit known as Teahleikhoi.

History & Background

The ship presents little in the way of unusual features. The captain of the ship, a male of high social standing, has a single cabin; the other three cabins are doubles. Normally, the female Executive Officer (responsible for administrative handling of the ship) and the female Chief Engineer share the adjacent cabin. Other crew may be male or female. One unusual compartment on board is the Shrine of Heroes, a small chamber where computer consoles allow a complete holographic record of past battles, heroes, or other inspirational events to be called up. The room is used for meditation and contemplation of the heroic traditions of the Aslan race.
