Arikara
Marauder
The "Arikara" variant is an unregistered modification of the popular Tomahawk-class armed courier (from the Lakota issue of Future Armada). This custom build was cobbled together by the Raevyn Marauders - a loose syndicate of raiders¸ pirates¸ and scavengers. The plans have been shared amongst the clans and so the sight of an approaching Arikara is cause for alarm among civilian captains and law enforcement alike.
Though it lacks the distinctive wing-mounted engines and stabilizers of the Tomahawk¸ this design adds both a detachable upper deck and a ventral breaching bore. Dubbed the "Akira" class runabout¸ the detached upper level can operate as an attack shuttle independent of the main hull while the breaching bore facilitates hostile ship-to-ship takeovers in the void. In addition to these modifications¸ the Arikara carries a low tech armored truck in the garage on the lower deck. Elsewhere there are barracks for a dozen raiders¸ cabins for the captain and officers¸ and holding cells for up to eight unfortunate souls bound for ransom or a life of slavery.
