DESCRIPTION​

With the Aging 1300 starting to become more and more rare in the spaceways, and even both the 2000 and 2400 starting to show age themselves, The Engineers at CEC decided to pull an older design out of the archives and give it a makeover. While the 2100 was basically the 1930 with the 2000s engines slapped onto it, when a working prototype was finally constructed it proved to be a versatile ship with extra space while being still a small profile compared to the bulkier 2000. As soon as it was proven to be a reliable ship the 2100 was quickly ran into production. It started to prove popular from the getgo due to peoples preference to the 2000, 1930, and 1300C Models due to the central oriented cockpit, but also the extra space in the cargo hold with beefier engines and robust shielding. However much like its older brethern, it's engines were known to be...iffy if not handled correctly.

Although the mechanical functions of the ship and its essential equipment are unmodified, the interior of the ship has been customized to suit Thayd's particular needs. The lounge area and cargo bays have been converted in such a way that the ship may serve as a laboratory suitable for research in plant biology/bioengineering. The technologies used (growth chambers, seed bank, herbarium, centrifuge, sequencers, etc) are not particularly advanced, though they do take up space, so unfortunately the ship doesn't have a proper lounge anymore. If he lets things go long enough and neglects the housekeeping you'll start to see all kinds of vines, weeds and whatever other herbaceous growths just spilling out all over the place like it owns the ship.

LEGALITY​

Legal. Light freighters such as the YT-2100 are considered innocuous enough under most jurisdictions, and are not restricted in most systems.

INTENT​

This is the ship my character @Thayd Karkoza is going to use to fly around the galaxy. It serves as his living quarters and overall base of operations.
