-Medbay (Although small, the med bay on this ship is equipped with 1 bacta tank, medical droid, and the supplies needed to tend to some more severe wounds)
-Reprogrammable ID Transponder: Every ship comes with a transponder unique to it. James removed this ship’s ID Transponder and inserted his own that can randomly generate a verifiable false ID.
-Built in maintenance droids: This ship comes with a pair of “housekeeping” general maintenance droids to clean and keep the ship clean.
-Supercomputer
Maneuverability Rating: 5 Stealth mode: 12
Speed Rating: 3 Stealth mode: 10
Hyperdrive Class: .5 Backup: 2
Strengths:
++Cutting Edge: The creators of this vessel were intensive in their efforts and design. It was created with the Prince of Theta in mind, as a result, no expense was spared with its level of intensive care and luxury.
++Matrix Plating: This is stronger than both Durasteel and Titanium according to the wiki and able to “turn aside energy attacks that would otherwise be devastating.”
++/--Molecular Shielding: Molecular shields take a substantial amount of heat from energy based weapons and use this to charge its own weapons and capacitors in combat. While this can be good, it is not invincible and can be overloaded if hit with enough firepower. It is also ineffective against projectiles.
Weaknesses:
--Stealth Mode mods: When in stealth mode, this ship’s speed, agility, and defense go do to a third. While the Defense is not as important because it is concealed. Its weapons are not able to fire either, for obvious reasons.
--Costly to maintain: With the state of the art technology comes a high price. Very high price. The cost it takes to find spare parts, let alone afford the mechanic who can work on it could feed a small village for a month. Its also hard to find most of these parts, so this ship cannot be repaired at any old dock on a backwater planet.
--Fuel burner: This ship is not eco-friendly
--Lowered Cargo capacity: This ship carries a lot less than most in its class.
--Loadouts: Every weapon on this ship except the torpedoes comes on a gimbal mount. To utilize them to their full potential, an astromech droid and an Artifical Intelligence are required. If neither are present, then the weapons act as forward mounted. If one is present, then half the weapons could act as gimbal mounted. If both are present, then all three may work on their gimbal mounts.
--Lowered consumables: This ship has half the consumables for a ship of its size, requiring more frequent stops and fill ups.

The Arch Prince of Theta had sent out a commission to the Minister of Shipwrights to create for him a ship like any other. The Prince was a leisure ship jockey with his spare time, and to that end wanted a ship to parade around in his show of power. The Minister of Shipwrights joined together with the planet’s most esteemed ship designers and builders and immediately got to work. With their combined efforts they made what would have been the greatest ship in the Thetan Armada. The test pilots showed that it was incredibly sleek, swift, and able to maneuver with few other equals. Of course, the Prince’s well-being was their primary concern and they spared no expense when it came to the ship’s defenses. Molecular shields and Matrix armor made a formidable defense. The shipwrights added in modular weapon mounts. They had no intention of ever arming them, but if and when they did, it would have been powerful enough to pack a punch.

Everything was set to appease the Prince with this vessel, until it vanished in the middle of the night. The Prince was enraged, and immediately ordered all on guard duty executed. Those who were still alive began to conduct a thorough investigation. They found that a James Justice had slipped in and stolen this ship away right under their noses. Further investigation led him to a string of murders and crimes committed on Theta; the death of one Hermes Byte, Falton Hardwire, and the death of a foot patrol that had been found dead on the outskirts of Hope Major. This did little to help the teneous relations between Soceras and Theta, as the cyborg prince’s counsel began to call for an all-out war.
As the cyborgs continued their rabble rousing, James went about modifying the ship to his own specifications. He replaced the transponder ID and added his own that would randomly generate its own false IDs for getting in and out of hostile zones without much danger. He removed a specialized tool section of the ship created for cyborg repair and upkeep. In its place he added a Stygium cloaking device. The down side was when it ran, the ship went significantly slower and had lower agility, due to the massive amounts of power required. He christened the ship Nestis Cora, after a legend of the underworld woman of exceeding beauty who was stolen away by the king of the underworld to be his wife.

Nestis and Cora are both pseudonyms for Persipone, who was the wife of Hades. And that is about how they got married.
