AERYN'S PROWLER
Aeryn's craft is called a Prowler. It'll seat two -- uncomfortably
(although we squeezed in three my first day here!). It's kinda like an
F-14, emphasis on "kinda"... about the same size as my Farscape module,
but the similarity ends right there.
I noticed a dren-load of these Prowler's whizzing around when I first
emerged from the wormhole. Obviously, they're one of the basic craft of
the Peacekeeper attack forces. They're certainly consistent with all the other standard issue PK devices I've ever seen: black, precise, and
deadly.
The Prowler's faster and more agile than the Transport Pods and Farscape One (even with her new bio-mechanoid modifications). When speed is a factor, the Prowler has no match aboard Moya.
And, as far as I know, Aeryn's ship is the only large-scale weapon at
our disposal. Moya has no offensive systems of her own. A fact which
I think is great...in principle. I really do. Peace, Love, and
Universal Harmony for all. But being weaponless makes things kinda
tough when you're hunted by a race of people whose family values make
Rambo look like the Easter Bunny.
That being said, I have to admit I've grown kind of fond of one PK, our
Miss Sun. But you've got to wonder if, down deep, we're really
compatible. Think about it -- Aeryn's Prowler is a jet black,
mass-produced battle fighter. Farscape One is a defenseless scientific
prototype that's has a tendency to crash into things...like
planets...and prowlers.
What's worse, she never lets me fly it! And the last time we flew out
together in her prowler, we got into an argument. Can two intergalactic
refugees share a small spacecraft without driving each other crazy?
