=== Briefing ===
About two years ago, a 400-ton Merchant vessel misjumped into the Schall system, blew out its drives, and drove the new sensor net wild. Intercepting Aubaini Navy vessels were attacked by a reasonably-sophisticated virus, which made it through primary comms channels, but was shut down at the secondary backups. A ship's boat investigated, once the virused ship's sensors had been neutralized, and discovered the remains were of a purpose-built virus ship! It had little space for humans, and a number of dedicated robotic units for maintenance and self-repair. The only humans on board were dead, and complexly-cyborged at TL14-15. 

Deep analysis of the remains of the ship pinpointed the place of construction: the former commercial starport at Juncture, the system that contained the massive Starlink to the greater galaxy. There are so many implications or possibilities that have no answers, that even though it is roughly 200 parsecs away, through unexplored sectors of space… RefCol wants us to go there, and send a message back.

Our ship's name: ''Seventh Son.''

''Seventh Son'' is a prototype brought up to line standard, all TL12. It'll be a close match to the current vessels, but lacking a central spinal mount. "Another general note, I tend to scrap maneuver fuel, but that space is taken up by logical stuff like emergency escape pods,etc. however, for this game, we'll keep it by the book to avoid too much houseruley gear in-game. Just expect your fuel supply to shrink a little to accommodate logical additions."
