U.S.S. Amazon

Pre-warp Mericanii colony ship, ~2.1 kilometers long. Described as mushroom-shaped with a forward shield plate, rotating ring, and massive drive cluster. Damaged in an asteroid collision, its systems disabled, it drifted into the Aglovale system where it was discovered by the ISV Defiant. Interior includes embryo cryostorage chambers containing thousands of genetically preserved humans. Constructed using true glass, solar foil, and manual override hatches labeled in archaic English. Its last known commander: ALAN WHEELER.

ALAN WHEELER
Mericanii Archenaut and commanding officer of the USS Amazon, a pre-warp colony ark lost for three millennia. Over six feet tall, heavily muscled, clad in a white exo-environment suit with a domed bronze-visored helmet. Pale, clean-shaven, short blond military cut. Solid silver cybernetic eyes and cranial implants. A product of advanced Mericanii bioaugmentation. Fluent in archaic English, known for sudden violence and loyalty to mission integrity. Survived deep cryostasis; resisted the Defiant’s boarding party before revealing the Amazon’s true mission: interstellar colonization.
