Legend

this unusual starship was owned and operated by Vilmarh Grahrk. It was essentially a flying wing, resembling a rust-colored gackle bat, with a pair of cylindrical engines mounted in the middle and a single tail fin. The ship measured just over ten meters from nose to stern, and had a wingspan ov twenty-seven meters. However, the Inferno stood just a few meters tall, giving the ship an exceptionally small profile for sensors to lock onto. Three lasers cannons were hidden within each wing, while a short-range ion cannon was concealed in the underside. This allowed the ship to appear harmless at first glance, and often gave Villie the element of surprise. Although this weaponry was average compared to other such ships, the Inferno made up for any lack of firepower with its sheer speed. It was equipped with a Class 0.8 hyperdrive, and its ion drive system could propel it through atmosphere at 1,200 kilometers per hour. Villie was assisted in operating the craft by an NT 600 astrogation droid, which was programmed to make the Inferno practically self-aware.
