Not my own words, but: "Enjoy memes and have a good time online, but develop a solid sense of self-worth that is rooted in a reality that doesn't disappear when the battery charge is empty."

I suppose I'll have to make a dude to round out this gender balance.
Unless @Kindos you're building one?
@InlaaGotcha. Looking forward to seeing how things will play out! The Queen will likely want an audience with Prince Amglam at some point.
@The Omnipotent Sphere, @Aristo, I decided to include elements of your nations in my backstory - namely, Xiang's military conquests and the religion of Jura. Let me know if what I've done is okay with you. I can remove what I wrote if necessary.


That's fine by me! What do you suppose your peoples' stance is towards the Xiang at present?
Vassals of the Xiang Dynasty

House Beiling
Ruled by Shin Beiling, Chancellor of Xiaoming. The Chancellor is an intellectual man of 35, best known for being a descendant of the illustrious Lei Beiling who wrote the famous book The Principles of Power a hundred years ago. Shin is married to Mei, 32, and they have a daughter called Im, who is 12 years old.

The Beilings have been one of the greater families of the Huaren people for a long time. Indeed, they once served the realm as the ruling dynasty. Their sway over politics is great, but they have shown no aspiration for resuming leadership and are loyal to the Xiang.

House Mailan
Ruled by Han Mailan, Chancellor of Shurpei. The Chancellor is a stalwart man of 45 and has previously been a general of renown in the royal army. His wife died while giving birth to his third child, Jiang, ten years ago. Apart from this son he has two daughters; Fen, 25, and Shu, 18.

The Mailans have only recently become a political force in the realm, but they already had a strong relation to the army thanks to Han’s previous career. Some say the former general has a mindset differing from the ruling dynasty; that he is hateful of the people previously inhabiting Huaren lands, but the family haven’t yet given cause for suspicion and has thus far been loyal to the Xiang.



Let me know what you think about the vassals.


Looks good to me! Though Chinese and other East Asian names follow a surname->given name format. I just rearranged them in my NS.
I've got a sheet up; it's just about done.
Malediction-class destroyer, HSV Vespera



The Malediction-class is something of a black sheep; its unique hull design stands out among other vessels in the Hegemony fleet. A sleek, low-profile body with identical weapon layouts on both the dorsal and ventral surfaces ensure it can bring fire to bear at any angle. The bulk of its firepower, however, is located at the front of the ship - twelve torpedo bays and twelve heavy turbolasers are poised to inflict great damage to vessels in its forward arc. Being a destroyer, the Malediction-class is one of the smaller ships in the Hegemony's fleet, and lacks the raw defensive strength afforded by the hulls of larger classes. However, this is offset by superior shielding, and its agility is beyond compare to ships of similar and greater size. The Malediction-class excels at anti-capital ship duties, thanks to its powerful armament - impressive, considering its size - and its hit-and-run capability.

Length-Width-Height
300m - 131m - 22m
Class: Space Control Destroyer
Tonnage: 67,000 tonnes

PRIMARY ARMAMENT
64(8 x 8) Mk 52 guided missile launcher cells; can accommodate a variety of missiles, including those designed for anti-ship, anti-strike craft and missile defense duties. Each cell can house multiple missiles, depending on the type.

12(3 x 4) Heavy turbolaser cannons; mounted in forward-facing nacelles.

SECONDARY ARMAMENT
16 Medium point-defense laser turrets.
12 Dual 40mm medium auto-cannon turrets.

ARMOR/SHIELDING
Armor is rated as 10 meter thick Iridium-Titanium alloy interweaved with Carbon-fiber netting.
Outer layer is 2 meter thick nanite-regenative armor.
Shielding uses new, Multi-layered Solid-State Plasma Containment technology. Extremely powerful. Also referred to as a "plasma sheathe."

COUNTERMEASURES
Many (placeholder) chaff rocket launchers
Many (placeholder) flare launchers
Many (placeholder) ECM emitters located around the hull, providing extremely large amounts of jamming power totaling 120TW of EM radiation.

ENGINES

@Aristo Forgot to ask---do you mind if the Queen Dowager for Öspa is a Xiang princess? Are you cool with a marriage alliance? I was thinking of naming her Yixin.


My current Queen Regnant is just 28 and her sons are infants. The king is deceased and she has not remarried since; she's got her attention on ruling the Xiang and consolidating her rule. If you would like, your character could be a relative of the former king's as part of an older arrangement. Or, I could add a princess to my sheet and betroth her to one of your royal children?
I'll work on a destroyer. I'm a bit stumped on where to start with the schematics; I assume an easy route would be to scale down everything to 1/4 of the OP's example ship?
