[hider=L1Z1X Lost Crew][center][b][u][color=red]Something interesting about myself:[/color][/u][/b] I am an great artist and writer trapped in an introverted, procrastinating personality. [b][u][color=red]Ship Name:[/color][/u][/b] Forward Spear [b][u][color=red]Universe Background:[/color][/u][/b] In a distant future reality where our system is a dual sol system and the human race discovered they were not the only beings to inhabit space. They found a number of other races some more advanced and some equally, it is also worth mentioning that there were some not as advanced, and had not yet achieved space travel. As time went on the races had some scuffles, but ultimately were able to form treaties in order to share technologies and resources for the benefit of each race. After close to 300 years of this system something dark came to the stage; a distant astrological body seemed to be making its way towards the collection of systems it was both a marvel as oddity to behold as an entire planet sized body came forth from the ever sprawling black of space positioning itself on the outer rim of the twin sol system. The planet was outside of communication rages for even the furthest outpost stations, but undeterred by what would otherwise be an ominous entity many of the races tried to send ambassadors to this satellite planet to visit and show good will, but none returned. After several years of no communications a message was broadcast from the new planet “We are the L1Z1X and we are the original colonists of your system. We have come to claim what is ours.” It didn’t take long to decipher the meaning of the message as the L1Z1X began to violently attack all the outlying planets and stations leaving no survivors. Their forces seemed small, but very effective in their attacks. The different militaries sent a formidable force to the L1Z1X home world finding to be more of a mechanical planet as most of the geological features had been replaced with technological workings. Upon engaging with the Planetary Defense Systems they found that the L1Z1X were a much greater foe than previously thought, and that they were comprised of cyborgs and robots. Jumping years ahead we find the system in all-out war with the L1Z1X, and losing. In a secret meeting of leaders of races and military it was concluded that an experimental weapon be used on the L1Z1X home world, A Worm Hole Engine, to end this war once and for all. After much deliberation it was agreed on with a lot of reluctance.

It is 750 meter long by 100 meters high and is equipped with the following: Medium Triple Barrel Ion Cannons – 3 front facing, 2 rear facing. Mass Accelerator Cannon – 1 front facing. Light Ion Anti-aircraft Artillery – 12 on both Port and Starboard sides. Chaser Charges – assortment of bombs/charges released through a rear tube for various purposes. [b][u][color=red]Unique Capabilities:[/color][/u][/b] The [i]Forward Spear[/i] has a system called Mass Distributed Guidance that when used with its cloaking system allows it to move virtually undetected. It using silent running pared with three large rotating weights along its haul to shift and alter its course without using main power. This is called [b]Ghosting[/b], and was used during war to sneak past enemy ships without notice. This system was never discovered by the other races. [b][u][color=red]History of the Ship:[/color][/u][/b] [i]Forward Spear[/i] was mainly a solo ship used to gather advanced intel and acting as a first strike where it would inflict the most damage. Before it disappeared its mission was to gather information of the WHE (Worm Hole Engine) before it reached the L1Z1X. If a weak spot was discovered it was to engage and attempt to destroy or greatly hinder the WHE, It was a one way mission. After intercepting the WHE [i]Forward Spear[/i] began to analyze and follow it along its long trek through protected space using its unique [b]Ghost[/b] ability. They found that it was designed to fire a special projectile that was timed to reach critical mass within range of the home world. At this point they had discovered the weak point they were to target, but waited for the next large rendezvous with a mix of fleets to hopefully inflict the maximum amount of damage. Once at the meet up, and while the ships were getting into position, Melchizedek gave the order to load and fife the Mass Accelerator for the load chamber of the WHE. The hit was a success, but this caused a singularity to open and began sucking in the ships around it including the [i]Forward Spear[/i].
