SS Free Booster

Overview

The Free Booster has had an brutal career and started life as a tactical assault vessel for Special Operation: Special Service Vessels Section. She was designed to hunt pirates and was built to look like a slow and ponderous merchantman to lure in the hungry pirates. When the pirates thought that they had a fat and juicy prise on their hand the Free Booster would show her teeth and the pirates would wake up in a prison cell. Her anti-pirating days came to an abrupt halt when she was attached and boarded by a pirate lord called Captain Black. He took the Free Booster and changed her into a slave ship to transport his cargo to where it was needed. She was freed in an escape attempt by one of the slaves and was brought back to the Federation where she was again taken back by Special Operation.
