S.S. Icalus
Marcus-Class Civilain TraderMerchant Service SS-97061-R
Launched in 2278, the S.S. Icalus is a long-distance cargo-hauler that has been in the Vaerun family for three generations. Though far from a newer model ship, extensive upgrades and retrofits have ensured that she remains up-to-snuff. After the Hobus incident, the Icalus became, like many Romulan ships, a self-contained city, with greenhouses and extensive support systems meant to ensure the crew would survive everything short of a catastrophic systems failure or hull breach.
In the hands of the latest Captain, Khoal, the Icalus has had even more extensive upgrades. Updated weapons and shields, a new engine, and even a stealth system have been added, making, as the Captain puts it, "the old girl one hell of a slippery eel, as the humans say".
