DESCRIPTION
The Rapier-class Combat Corvette is Lumina Starworks' answer to the call for a sharp, agile warship capable of defending Echani interests and escorting larger fleets. Designed with the same minimalist white-and-silver aesthetic as the Duelist and Veil, the Rapier emphasizes precision and speed over brute firepower.
Armed with medium laser turrets, ion cannons, and concussion missiles, the Rapier is highly effective against starfighters, transports, and other corvettes, while able to harass larger ships in coordinated packs. Its reinforced deflector shields make it resilient for its size, though its armor is only moderately strong, meaning prolonged exposure to capital-grade weaponry is a death sentence.
The ship requires a crew of dozens, making it a proper warship rather than a civilian freighter. Despite this, its interior retains the clean Echani elegance Lumina is known for, blending efficiency with cultural artistry. The Rapier is a corvette designed for the duel — a blade among the stars.
