Built for the One Sith by Krayt Industries and designed after information and reports from when the One Sith Attacked Zeltros. The carrier carrying the sithspawn to ravage the world was easily destroyed leaving a large and dangerous amount on the world. As Balaya fought through the Hammerhead of Camellia Swift she used her cybernetics to record some of her thoughts on the distribution of their forces and began working on a powerful ship idea that would be able to land forces few could fathom or face down.
The response that came form the Republic with several garrisons worth of troopers and armor divisions amazed her if only because Zeltros was not that heavy for defense. She mused several times to her apprentices it was like they knew it was coming and space magicked things in there. The ship itself is a rectangle built around a large cargo bay with a solar ionization reactor running the length of the bottom of the ship and modular decks able to extend within to create different configurations for storage.
The uppermost sections of the ship house the minimal crew as droids are used to maintain in tighter spaces the main systems as accommodations can be made for the large amounts of troopers, sithspawn, armor divisions or just releasing some of the more obscure and failed experiments to tear apart cities. The thick armor plates of the ship are designed to take a beating and protect the valuable cargo inside sacrificing speed with their hyperdrive and ship in exchange to offer some of the strongest protection.
The minimal weapons is a choice to allow for power to be diverted to shields provide additional protection. The hangers converted for more cargo space and the ramp designed as a thick nose plate with overlapping plates of thick turadium and alusteel made to be fired upon by an Immortal and Dark Blade and survive. Using the One Siths ships that pack a stronger punch then most ships in the galaxy it can slid down and be used to provide a ramp exposing the interior cargo bay and its racks of whatever is inside.
An early prototype and concept of the ship, created for transporting the sithspawn of the Warlord was deployed on Zeltros bringing in thee large Akure to destroy the palace and destroyed by the Rendili CEO Camellia Swift. Her Hammerheads and ships showed several inherent flaws in the design and the ship was improved to be better at protecting itself, carrying more and deploying more soldiers rapidly. Some information gleamed when assaulting her hammerhead over the space port helped Balaya with designs for the bridge and room having a distinct Rendili feel. In the rare event the ship is used to carry the Nightmare child the ship is filled and unable to carry anything else. The massive sithspawn created and hidden away until needed to be called.
