The Hyperion

The Hyperion is a unique cruiser-class vessel under the command of Captain Chloe Ward since its commission in 2476.

History
Little is known surrounding the construction and assembly of The Hyperion. While the vast majority of vessels of the FOS are constructed in the Asgard System of the FOS, a star system designated for the design, construction and launch of all FOS vessels, The Hyperion was allegedly constructed and launched from an unknown shipyard on Earth, Sol System.

Capabilities
Despite not adhering to the traditional model of FOS vessel design, The Hyperion has been hailed as a feat of engineering among those who have encountered it. Over its lifespan, the vessel has been reconstructed and retrofitted a number of times, each enhancing its variety of operational capabilities.

Command
The bridge of the Hyperion is located on bow of the top-level deck. With consoles and stations for six bridge crew,The Hyperion's bridge acts as the primary command centre and warfare suite for all its crew. Attached is the ship's War Room and Captain's Quarters.

Medical & Quarantine
Despite being a formidable war ship in its own right, The Hyperion boasts state-of-the-art equipment and suites dedicated to medical treatment. Located below the top-level deck, this level is split between a medical bay (inclusive of a operating theatre, treatment bay and morgue among other areas) and a quarantine suite.

Crew Quarters
The Hyperion is fitted to support up to twenty crew-members. As such, the Crew Deck offers single-room en-suite accommodation crew. Aside from this, the deck is fitted with a gymnasium, kitchen (including store and hydroponics room), viewing platform and TV/conversation area.

Operations
The Operations Deck is the deployment-centre of The Hyperion. Here, groundcrew prepare for, plan and launch operations. This deck includes a briefing room, armoury, locker room, small shooting range, and a vehicle depot.

Engineering and Cargo
Combined into one single deck, the Engineering and Cargo deck is located in a lowest level of the ship. Within this deck, all vital ship systems are housed such as power plant and life support capabilities alongside ample cargo housing.

Armament
Retrofits of The Hyperion provided the ship with state-of-the-art weaponry. This includes 2x Forward-Mounted Archer Heavy Autocannons and 4x Helix Gauss Turrets.
