DESCRIPTION
"In the modern day, it's unlikely to see two Wayfarers with exactly the same layout..."
- Excerpt from original Wayfarers description.
The name says it all, "No Forgiveness". All crime bosses of the Syndicates have the same reaction to hired smugglers ditching their cargo to save their own necks, "Unacceptable". Many of these smugglers then find a puck with their name on it or a death sentence from their previous employers. The Pyke Syndicates leaders went a step further to prevent such problems in the future. They instructed their slicers to remove all escape pods from the craft and gut the Wayfarer of all of its internal systems except for the shield generator and primary hyperdrive. No escape, no more excuses, only doing the job or die trying.
With the removal of 18 people worth of escape pods, 10 passenger seating area, the extra hyperdrive, all sleeping quarters and personal space, and minimizing crew from 7 to 3, the Wayfarer is able to hold an additional 55 tons of cargo. Crew of 3 can sleep in the hallways or makeshift tunnels as they are called now.
LEGALITY
Legal. Light freighters such as the Wayfinder are considered innocuous enough under most jurisdictions, and are not restricted in most systems.
INTENT
Creating a re-skin with a few changes of less caliber of the original more suited for my characters needs.
CREDIT
This is a Re-Skin of the Wayfarer-class Medium Transport, previously created by Mr. TeaTime and I appreciate his hard work in creating the original.
