Description: The Chiloon Rift-class Replenisher is the standard supply ship of The Primeval Fleet. Whether replenishing consumables or replacing missing crew, the Rift-class is essentially the lifeline of their fleets when on long campaigns and incursions. Named after the bountiful Chiloon Rift, this ship too is bountiful in that it has a massive cargo capacity. Only one or two of these vessels are required to replenish most detachments and a typical fleet will contain about a dozen of these vessels.
Because the starship is a non-combat vessel, it's a common target for piracy and supply raids. Despite being armed with auto-turrets and point-defense turrets, the frigate-sized craft is not intended for combat and is in danger when caught in skirmishes; let alone all out engagements.
In its capacity as a supply ship, the Chiloon Rift-class utilizes specialized docking ports and their tractor beams to connect with larger and smaller vessels alike. Typically it takes up anywhere from 8-26 hours to supply another ship but such times may be reduced to 4-12 hours in emergency situations; at the cost of crew fatigue.
