ADVANCED SYSTEMS

• Neuro-Sanguine Interface
  A soul-bonded neural link forged through Sith magick and invasive cybernetic surgery. Pilots experience full sensory integration with the fighter—its hull becomes their skin, its wounds their pain. Allows sub-conscious control and unparalleled maneuver reflexes.
• Machine Spirit Core: "Yssarh Protocol"
  Each fighter houses a unique, semi-sentient spirit bound via alchemical ritual—an amalgam of droid cognition and Dark Side wrath. These entities develop personalities and resist subservience. Many are infamous for driving lesser pilots insane or overriding commands in pursuit of violence.
• Blood-Scribed Suture Wiring
  Sith alchemical control filaments line the cockpit, feeding on the pilot's emotional intensity. Pain, rage, and blood-loss are converted into kinetic energy bursts and targeting precision boosts, creating a Wrath Feedback Loop.
• Entropic Ram-Hull (Living Blade Design)
  The alchemized hull is designed for full-contact ramming. Molecular entropy fields lace the prow, degrading enemy matter upon impact. These ships are not only allowed—but encouraged—to tear through other starfighters.
• Darksight Obfuscation Veil (Precognition Disruptor)
  Cloaks the vessel from Force precognition and danger-sense, creating a field of probabilistic interference. Jedi perceive it as a formless threat—a blur of futures. This causes momentary combat dissonance, hesitation, and misreads.
• Wraithphase Cloaking Mantle
  A stealth field that phase-shifts the fighter into partial dimensional bleed, making it shimmer and vanish intermittently. Cannot be sustained indefinitely but allows for surgical ambush strikes and escape.
• Squadron Mind-Meld Circuitry ("The Crimson Chorus")
  A mild collective thoughtlink across bonded fighters, allowing squads to move with supernaturally tight precision. Pilots share emotions, intents, and even glimpses of each other's perceptions, creating hive-mind combat patterns.
• Sith Kill-Surge Capacitors
  Upon confirmed kill, the fighter draws from the pilot's Dark Side surge, temporarily overclocking systems for increased fire rate, engine output, and shield recharge. Berserker-mode-on-kill functionality.
• No Escape Protocol
  The Dûr'ashaarai features no ejection system. Its core is hard-welded to the pilot's life force. Service equals sacrifice. The ship ends when the pilot does.

STRENGTHS

• Predatory Sentience & Neural Symbiosis
  Each fighter possesses a semi-sentient machine spirit bound to the pilot's nervous system, allowing for seamless reflexive control, predictive maneuvering, and lethal precision. The longer a pilot survives, the deadlier the bond becomes—ship and pilot moving as one organism.
• Entropic Blade Design & Kill-Surge Overclock
  Forged to ram, bleed, and annihilate—this starfighter doubles as a living weapon. Its entropic prow degrades hull integrity on contact, while alchemical capacitors overcharge weapons and engines after every kill, rewarding aggression with exponential combat momentum.
• Force-Distorting Stealth & Darksight Disruption
  Shrouded in Sith magick, the Dûr'ashaarai is cloaked not only from sensors but from Jedi foresight. Opponents relying on precognition experience perceptual dissonance—hesitation, fear, and flawed reactions—allowing the fighter to dominate Force-sensitive adversaries.

WEAKNESSES

• No Ejection System / Death-Bonded Cockpit
  The pilot cannot be saved. There is no escape. Each Dûr'ashaarai is built with a "no retreat" philosophy; once bonded, the pilot is fused to the vessel in both body and soul. This creates elite commitment—but guarantees total loss on destruction.
• Volatile Machine Spirits
  The ship's semi-sentient core is not easily mastered. Unworthy or emotionally unstable pilots may be overwhelmed, hallucinate, or lose control mid-combat. There are recorded cases of ships devouring their pilot's mind to assume total control.
• High Maintenance / Ritual Dependency
  Unlike conventional starfighters, the Dûr'ashaarai requires regular Sith rites, spirit recalibrations, and Dark Side sustenance. Without proper ritual upkeep, the ship may fall into dormancy, madness, or uncontrollable aggression—making long-term deployments dangerous and logistically taxing.

DESCRIPTION
A weapon in the shape of a starfighter, the Model 487.33i 'Dûr'ashaarai' Class Sith Superiority Fighter is not merely a machine—it is a beast made from metal, malice, and magick. Designed for close-quarters domination, precision strikes, and psychological terror, the Dûr'ashaarai embodies the Sith doctrine of total warfare.

Its hull is a monomolecular wedge, alchemized to act as a living blade capable of cutting through enemy craft. Its power core is bound with a semi-sentient machine spirit—a wrathful entity engineered through dark cyberneurosis and Sith ritual—which bonds with the pilot at a neurological and spiritual level. The cockpit is not piloted in the traditional sense; it is worn, like a second skin of obsidian rage. When the Dûr'ashaarai kills, it surges—its systems overclocked by the pilot's fury. When it is wounded, the pilot bleeds.

The fighter emits a palpable aura of dark side energy, and its Darksight Obfuscation Veil makes it nearly impossible for Jedi or other Force-sensitives to track in combat. In formations, multiple Dûr'ashaarai units form a mind-linked web of perfect tactical cohesion—mimicking Force battle precognition through their Crimson Chorus circuit, allowing impossible coordination.

It is considered among the most dangerous starcraft ever conceived. But it is not without cost. Pilots must undergo invasive Sith bonding rituals and continuous psychological screening. The longer a pilot serves, the more the fighter leaves its mark—scarring the soul, whispering in dreams, sometimes hollowing out the mind entirely. Survivors of prolonged service are rare—but revered.

HISTORY

The Dûr'ashaarai was born not from committee nor military boardroom, but from the personal vision of Darth Empyrean, Dark Lord of the Sith. Dissatisfied with the stagnation of starfighter design and enraged by the mediocrity of modern aerial doctrine, Empyrean turned to the Sith-Imperial Engineering Corps and his personal think tank at Jaeger Solutions to produce the unthinkable: a superiority fighter so dominant, so unrelentingly violent, that it would redefine space supremacy as a Sith rite of terror.

Over the course of several cycles, Empyrean personally oversaw the black-site development of the 487-series platform. Each prototype was tested in live combat, each failure punished by sacrificial offering to refine the vessel's alchemical core. Rumors suggest the initial machine spirit of the Dûr'ashaarai was harvested from the shattered consciousness of an ancient Sith war droid, broken and reforged across a thousand battle simulations.

Due to its mind-binding requirements and risk of pilot burnout, only a handful have ever been completed—each one hand-ritualized by Empyrean's inner sanctum. These are not production starfighters. They are apostles of destruction, whispered about even among Sith military personnel. To fly one is to stand at the edge of mortality, tethered only by will.

The Dûr'ashaarai does not serve fleets. Fleets serve it—or are left behind.

Hello, I'll be reviewing this today.

First off, extreme ratings require this to be semi-unique. Either bump the ratings down, or bump the production down.

Secondly, you have several stealth systems on this, and while they aren't technological based, they are definitively stealth systems, which also require it to be semi-unique. Either remove them, or bump the production down.
