DESCRIPTION

The Ceres-Class "Firefly" is a small civilian transport designed specifically around the needs of Ceres and Enel Kira, twin sisters who purchased this unique ship using family funds. Their family wanted a vessel that was safe, fast, and ergonomic, capable of supporting them in their studies, their travels, and their light exploratory activities without exposing them to unnecessary danger.

The Firefly combines a compact frame, a light eco-reactor, and most notably a Class 0.6 hyperdrive, an exceptional feature for a civilian transport. This allows the ship to reach distant locations far faster than standard commercial vessels. A backup Class 1.0 hyperdrive ensures reliability and safety.

The interior layout is optimized for two regular occupants: two private cabins, a convertible lounge, kitchenette, sanitary module, and a small ventral dock for a micro-speeder. The onboard AI and the collision-avoidance systems compensate for the sisters' limited flight experience, making this an excellent vessel for young pilots traveling alone.

However, the Firefly remains a civilian vessel: light hull plating, minimal armament, and reduced endurance when operating the hyperdrive at maximum performance. It should avoid warzones and relies on speed and maneuverability rather than offensive power.

Suited for travel, study, minor civilian deliveries, and interstellar excursions, the Firefly is a versatile, reliable, and comfortable companion the perfect ship for two young explorers setting out into the galaxy.
