Krita

The Krita was a Heavy Raider used by Katrylle Morghan as her primary vessel in association with The Company. Because of her marriage to Ryax, Katrylle tended to spend more time aboard the Vextis than the Krita. Due to this frequent absence Katrylle assigned Linton Travers as the Captain of the Krita. Travers has since recruited many former members of the Midnight Raiders into key positions.

Role in The Company
The Krita is a heavy raider capable of high sublight speed and equipped with an advanced hyperdrive.

The Krita is rarely used in above board shipping operations. It is described on company documents as the personal Yacht of one of the owners and deducted as a net business expense.

In actuality, the Krita is the main piece in what Benjamin Stinel describes as Katrylle's Department of Clandestine Acquisition and Covert Transportation. Piracy and smuggling.

Capabilities
The Krita is a fast and heavily armed raider with a crew of two hundred fifty. Although the Krita does have cargo holds, the majority of the internal space in the primary hull is devoted fighter bays and maintenance. In the company's fleet only the Vextis transports a greater number of attack craft.

The Krita is equipped with a cloaking device allowing the ship to conceal herself from revenge seekers if need be, but this device is primarily used as a means of sneak attack, decloaking and launching fighters at the last possible instant before a raid on an unsuspecting ship. As with most cloaking devices, the enormous power requirements disable ship based weaponry and shields while cloaked.

The Krita's main weapons are brought to bear as a last resort. Her primary mission is to disable target vessels and seize their cargoes. This can be more easily accomplished with small fighters than heavy ship mounted weaponry which tends to destroy rather than disable.

The Krita carries a squadron of fighter craft. The majority of the Krita's crew (two hundred) are devoted to supporting fighter operations while a small cadre of about fifty maintains and operates the Krita.

In a typical battle the Krita stands back from the fighting, providing command and control for the fighters. If the Krita finds herself directly engaged she is equipped with standard starship grade shields and ablative armor, allowing her to withstand the most strenuous of attacks.
