Necros Class: medium destroyer

Well, I kinda liked the name

So: here it is! Hope you like it:

The Necros Class is a top-secret Section 31 starship. It is equipped with phased-cloaking technology. The Federation and Starfleet officially deny any knowledge of it. It has a S31 NXX registry and no USS/SS prefix.
It is armed with a powerful phaserbank and several quantum/photon torpedotubes. Have you got any more sinsiter names for ships?
Here are a few names I thought of:
Beast
Darkchild
Warlock
Nemesis
Apocalypse
Warchild
Necromancer

Cool. Reminiscent of the Starfleet Intelligence Covert Operations Ship I have been working on, the Deceiver Class. Though I think the Necros is larger.

*Wonders if anybody knows HIS nickname used to be another one of those ships, the "Darkchild"*

The Deceiver Class (And there was no prototype named Deceiver, just to make things confusing) were all named after famed Liars/Traitors, thusly

Quisling
Serpent
Arnold
Morag
Duras
Flanagan
Jezebel
Belial
(and some others)

Sinister names?
Sinister
Warhammer
Charybdis
Fenris
Deathbird
Cain

1) It's Ragnorak (I just learned Norse Myth in school two days ago)

2) It's Harbinger (I don't know where people get Harbringer from. Harbinger means "first of her line")

3) It's Maelstrom...I think...

Isn't it "Ragnarok"?

And those are rather appropriate names (Quisling and so on) for that class, First.

Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on :

359: Probably because harbingers "bring" bad news, or something. And I'm pretty sure you're right about "maelstrom", but Garak's spelling of "Ragnarok" looks more correct to me. But I could be wrong on that one.

I wonder why people seem to think that an apocalypse is a bad thing...?

It's Ragnar�k, pronounced rangnaruk, with the long "u" from turn. That's as close you english-types can get without learning our scandinavian sounds!

And who or what is this Ragnar�k?

Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on :

In Norse mythology, it's basically the equivalent of "Armageddon". In other words, the end of the world as we know it. Or as the old Norse thought they knew it, anyway. :-)

It's the end of the world as they knew it, and they felt fine...

Sorry, had to do it.

Ragnarok (my bad on the spelling) is when the Frost Giants (called Jotars) from Jutenheim (part of Niflheim) will battle the Gods (called Aesirs) from Asgard will battle on the rainbow bridge that connects Asgard and Niflheim, and it will be the most glorious battle ever, but will be the end of the world.

Just find the names of all the Star Destroyers. That should give you some good ones.

Y'know, I really don't think that qualifies as a spoiler... :-)

Actually there was a swedish parody on the fancy movie "Armageddon" called "Ragnar�k".

What I mean is, a spoiler, by definition, is something that "spoils" the story for someone who hasn't seen it. Sloane's given name doesn't really give anything away. It would be like telling someone who hadn't seen "The Adversary" (I think that's the one) that Sisko had grown a beard. Not really something that anyone's going to care about.

Or, if they do care, they need to get out more, anyway. :-)
