Sapphire

The latest from Volkov Shipworks, the Sapphire features many technological advancements many would consider magic.

Equipped with bleeding edge "Hardlight" technology, the first of which is the Hardlight Engine, where the reactor energy is used to create the Hardlight, which is then used in many of the ships systems.

The Sapphire has an open Ballast which keeps water in by utilizing Hardlight tuned to repel water, but not organic matter, allowing humans, or other critters, to enter and exit at will. Just in the next room, this technology is used once again to allow an open airlock, however this airlock can be closed in an emergency by the captain at the Helm.

Hardlight Cannon: In addition, the Sapphire has a Hardlight Cannon, a heavily modified chaingun capable of firing Ionizing Radiation at it's enemies. Careful however, the cannon is very energy hungry and can only fire in bursts for fear of overheating the barrel.

Hardlight Engine, and Hardlight Afterburner: The Sapphire, as previously mentioned, is propelled through the water with Hardlight, while this eliminates the chance of being shredded by the propeller of the engine, it raises a new concern. If a creature ventures too close to the output of the engine, they destructively interfere with the propulsion, which Zaps and stuns anyone/anything nearby, but it also temporarily damages the engine, causing your propulsion to be capped at 10% until the engine recovers, which takes about 10 seconds. In addition, the captain can enable the Afterburner from the Helm, this afterburner chews through additional energy, but gives a sizable speed boost, in addition, the Afterburner is immune to effects that would damage the Hardlight engine, allowing you to keep moving swiftly even when you would normally be slowed.

Hardlight Repulsor Grid: With just the flick of a lever, you can redirect the Hardlight from the engine to the hull of the ship, causing regular bursts of energy to eminate from your sub, deterring most creatures from gnawing on it! Beware, as this redirects most of the Hardlight from the engine, your thrust will once again be capped at 10%, however you can use the afterburner to mitigate this effect.

The Ruby: The Sapphire comes equipped with a custom drone, capable of scouting ahead with 360 vision around the drone using searchlights. The ruby is incredibly fast, and carries a duplicate of the Hardlight Cannon, allowing it to defend itself quite well! Beware however, the Ruby is not traversable by humans, so the only way to repair it's sub-systems is at an outpost. In addition, the Ruby comes equipped with a single Remote-Detonated FixFoam grenade, allowing the Drone to save itself from certain doom a single time, use it wisely!
