Ah, okay.




You'll see that some of them continue onward, still having energy. I always figured it was a kind of 'kamikazee'. They're explosive on impact, but the sheer volume of them some tear through the hull, the ones behind it continue the path and so on and so forth until they carve their way through the ship. Once through the other side they loop around and go again.

I see. Explains why some of them explode upon impact before the other's tear through to the other side. Though I have to wonder why the Lanteans would seemingly make the drones return to the thing that fired them if they can't be reactivated or recharged. Either way, I'll make them like they are here for the roleplay.

Example of them returning to sender? I don't recall ever seeing them return to where they were fired from.

Well, I might be mistaken given how it's been awhile since I've seen the show, but I could have sworn that the drones returned to the ships that fired them. Though looking back, I probably got it mixed up. As a matter of fact, if I'm starting to recall episodes of Atlantis correctly, the drones just flew off somewhere or exploded like in that video above.

Yeaaaaah the drones don't return to ship. They're either destroyed or run out of energy.

Yeah. Anyway, I've put the history of the ship/ships from the wiki in a separate hider from the custom history I'm still writing. The custom one will detail the events leading up to Valtrix's arrival in the Star Wars verse, while the original will simply be a record of the Aurora-class battleships in general.

For anyone who cares... that's what I'm applying as.

I saw. That should be an interesting meeting. Especially given Valtrix's personality now.

What'll be more interesting IMO is obviously my guys knowing what your ship is, and you being all like, "So where are you from?"

"Oh... we're your descendants."

Oof. True. Also, I just realized that, that kind of revelation would only boost his ego.

@Sep
The complete CS! Again, I took liberties with the ships interior, as I can't find much information on the crafts entire interior layout.

@ZAVAZggg my issue is, you're telling me noone aboard could undo his coding? Also why did he have a hidden stasis pod to begin with?

Hidden stasis pod was for the desertion plan itself. Should he be boarded, hopefully no one would find him in that room. (Crappy plan I know, but he's never done it before). As for the undoing part, there could have been, but I'd prefer to think that they couldn't break it. Mainly because my other option was for him to just lure the crew somewhere, which would have been very difficult given the sheer amount that were on-board, and jettison them out into space. Also the other issue I ran into with that was the ships interior environment and pressure, as well as any cargo it may have had. All that probably would have been sucked out into space along with the crew as the ship de-pressurized.

So that's why I went with the starvation thing.

I'm open to suggestions though as I hate half ass plans that wouldn't actually work save for when a plot requires. Like the one above.

I mean if you wanna go with this solo thing that's fine. But I don't think the idea of shutting people out works. Maybe they had a land based base and he abandoned them? #ideas

While I'm not fond of the solo character aspect either (what if we have a ground forces storyline for a few weeks or send in ambassadors? It sidelines the character) do you really want to play a cowardly deserter? Totally cool if your are because that takes courage but most people would feel uncomfortable doing so.

Alternatively he could have had his crew evacuate while performing a selfless, near suicidal act but survived anyways. Perhaps he was trapped in the event horizon of a black hole, experiencing time dilation for ten thousand years! Maybe it was a surprise attack by the wraith with his entire crew on shore leave being destroyed before his very eyes.
