Ship

Story so far

Ship is a small bot-piloted cargo supply ship that runs a regular forty-seven-cycle route from HaveRatton Station to Milu, resupplying the near-derelict station. Its bot pilot is a low-level intelligence that communicates only in images, too limited for Murderbot to trust with a negotiated deal, so Murderbot slips aboard under a faked Port Authority authorization and quietly excises its own presence from Ship's memory, making it believe it had always been onboard. The twenty-cycle voyage carries not only the hidden SecUnit but the two security consultants Wilken and Gerth.

On arrival Murderbot rigs Ship to log itself as under maintenance and to require Murderbot's own authorization before it can leave, ensuring the derelict station won't strand it there for the return trip.

Appearance

A small bot-piloted cargo ship large enough to carry supplies for roughly a hundred people, fitted with two detachable cargo modules, spare bunks, an emergency MedSystem, and large maintenance repair drones.

Role

Murderbot's transport into and out of Milu; a mindless supply hauler it commandeers as a hidden berth and escape route.
