	At one time, generations back, the crew of the Xanadu were the cream of the crop. Spacers from many a vessel or station strove to gain a position on the vessel, enticed by stories of rich rewards, luxurious quarters and a long and happy life. Alas, those days are in the past; the declining fortunes of the Peregrine House have led to cuts in pay and fewer high-quality applicants from outside the ranks of the House's sailors. Nevertheless, the crew's abilities have gone from nigh-perfection to 'merely' competent; many of the current crew were born into the House's service and learned their duties at their parents' knees.<br>		At one time, generations back, the crew of the Xanadu were the cream of the crop.

	'''Behaviour:''' One of the most interesting quirks about their behaviour is how they destroy their own eggs to ensure each generation stays strong. Whenever a dragonnel lays a clutch of eggs, she will wait till their shells seem sufficiently hard, and then she will fling the eggs at the nearest hard surface; only eggs strong enough to withstand the impact will hatch.

	'''Role:''' The dragonnel is used by crewmen all over the ship as transportation, a beast of burden, and they are also reared for their eggs: dragonnel-embryo is a well-loved delicacy, and Gammer Cordite on the macrobattery deck has an ancient family recipe for a stew using dragonnel-embryo that has been known to start brawls.

			Attached below is a sketch one of the jockeys drew for me of his steed, "Hersha," chasing a Void Wasp. The creatures apparently consider them a delicacy.

	While much of the vessel is dedicated to the display of the Dynasty's trophies and past leaders, in a quiet alcove off the Emperor's temple is a room that holds only a pair of low benches. On the obsidian walls are carved the names of officers, inlaid in gold, that have died while onboard the Xanadu - by tradition, those names are carved into the stone by the captain they served. Many crew take pride in their forefathers' presence on this solemn monument.
