Something New, Something Faction

Shocku brought his Machariel to rest in the ship maintenance bay of
Steky's carrier, the Cascade Essence. After a quick shower and pulling on a simple jumpsuit, he made his way down the access tube to the hangar. His face held a deeply creased frown as he met Steky. She put an arm around his waist and said, "cheer up boss, there was nothing you could have done. It was treachery pure and simple". She was referring to the recent loss of his vargur by a goon spy named Brainstem.

"Besides, on my trip to Jita I got you something fun to play with!"

Shocku struggled to show excitement but couldn't quite muster it. His expression changed however, when they entered the next bay. "Sweet mother..." and his jaw just hung open. "is that a...?" "Dramiel" she finished for him. "it's not fully fit because I didn't know how you would want it, but it has the basics."

Shocku looked at the frigate sized vessel, unlike anything he had seen before. It was built by the Angel Cartel, using a combination of Minmatar, Gallente, and quite possibly Jovian technology. Steky said, "If you can fly the Machariel, you can surely fly that, though I wouldn't do so right after lunch. They say it can do over 10 clicks per second on impulse!

Shocku smiled and they headed to the stateroom for dinner.
