The Raven

0 Conversations

An IntroductionA tall figure in black with a long, blood red cape and an oversized scarlet mask in the shape of a skull covering his entire head -- the type which would look at home in a Dias de los Muertos parade, or possibly Batman Returns -- enters Hangar 41 where, just as his unnamed accomplice had informed him, a black and red spacecraft has been illegaly parked for his use. "Black and red" he discovers, doesn't begin to describe this work of art. The black body of the ship appears to have been painted by the same artist who designed the black craft certain space travelers found parked beneath the Restaraunt at the End of the Universe. Light actually bends around it. The red on the nose stripes down the sides and makes the already aerodynamic craft appear to be traveling at faster than light speeds when, actually, it is illegaly docked right here. Red particularly appreciates the hood ornament, which is a replication of his own trademark mask.The Ship

The above is a quote pulled from a forum. The first forum post, in fact, where The Masque encountered The Raven, the ship that would send him on his way towards destroying the Crew of the Mangar (who, to our knowledge, have not set up a page dedicated to their ship).

Red presses his gloved finger into a small hole by the door which would be invisible if the crimson stripe did not pass over it. The door opens, and he enters the ship. Though it's obviously been parred down to handle higher speeds with more weapons and stronger sheilds, the interior is suprisingly roomy. The crago hold has been converted into a prison hold, which will come in handy if he happens to take his enemies alive. There is just enough space for the entire bridge crew of the ship he will be tailing. Two compartments of the ship has been outfitted as living quarters, should sleep appear neccisary. The cockpit of the craft has two chairs. The second is, of course, unneccisary as the ship has been designed to be piloted by a crew of one. Should Red acquire a sidekick, however, the weapons and navigation controls can be transfered to the control panel in front of the second seat. Red presses a button and the panel in front of his extremly comfortable chair springs to life.

The ship, and soon a fleet, would eventually be manned by some of the ever more numerous minions of STUMPED. The Masque's right hand is Darth Noire, AKA Captain Black. The ship's computer, Lenore, is almost too loyal, and the ship android, Montressor, is absolutely diabolical. The Masque and his various partners in crime have managed, during the voyage, to gain supreme control of the Space Armada of the Rodentar System, and the nomadic Mangol Culture. The specs on The Raven's armaments are concidered a military secret by both people, and therefore cannot be listed here.
