PART 1- Small presentation of the ships
The Horus shipline. One of the Order's pride. Each of them has been specially modified for the research duties of one man: Krixx Treia, respected Order agent, former Oracle. Each of them has a different duty. But all of them are respected among the Order. Let him present you this shipline, their crew, his pride.
Why the ''Horus'' shipline?
Horus is one of the major god of the Egyptian mythology, and that is what Krixx wants it to become: a major asset to the Order. Horus took several roles in the egyptian Mythology: the god of Sky, Sun (and technically, of the moon), of War, and was the one that conquered Set, the Egyptian god of ''Evil'', who also killed his father, Osiris. Krixx wishes to become a light to the Order, to aspire them courage in their fight and to help them keep on. Thus, he saw ''Horus'' as a fitting name.
The Ibis of Horus

Description:
The Ibis of Horus isn't your average Nephtys; the hold has been modified into a research laboratory, mostly able to study small nomad brains. The second person aboard usually is a scientist. Its hull has been heavily reinforced, has been tested and certified to be able to counter most small threats and can prove itself useful has an escort. It has been named after. The Ibis is a bird that is sacred to Egypt, although it was more attached to Thot. Legends say that the appropriate sacrifice and mummification of an Ibis will always bring peace.
Flying research Laboratory, the Hand of Horus is known to be fierce as a defensive ship. Its crew is highly coordinated and trained to defend itself in case of boarding. The Laboratory is always sterilized, and is set to lockdown in case of infection. The Hand of Horus has no special meaning; Krixx uses this term to represent the represent its small size, but that it still can ''Pack a Punch''. (Hand, Punch, get it?)
