Defects Total: 27 Bonus Points Awkward Size 15 (8,000x normal size) Marked (Instantly identifiable) 3 Nemesis (humanity & anyone similar to humanity) 3 Physical Impairment (no limbs) 3 Special Requirement (Unique environment) 3 The organic parts of the Maelstrom must have a special rarefied isotopic oxygen system combined with unique radioactive properties. If their containment suit is breached and they do not receive immediate assistance, they will die within 45 seconds.

USAGE NOTES: The Battle Cruiser is an organic creature encased in a metal shell, designed to house thousands or hundreds of thousands of similarly protected organics, thus it has little use in maintaining an internal atmosphere. Traversing the Battle Cruiser is made more difficult by the fact that only 40% of the time will a given area has an atmosphere of any kind and less frequently will that atmosphere be oxygenated enough for human survivability. In addition, many internal areas of the Battle Cruiser are inundated with lethal or near lethal levels of radiation, a fact that does not concern the Maelstrom, who absorb radiation as a sort of nutrient bath. Appearance: The Battle Cruiser is a huge space vessel, larger than even the largest Earth building; it has hatches along its length to allow the Vipers and Dragonflies exit points. The main body of the vessel is sleek and clearly built for speed, slightly resembling the strong lines of a killer whale. Size Stats: Length- 25 km, Tall- 4km, Width- 5km
