Diagnostics

Diagnostic Readout

The Blade Runner is Invader Vex's version of the common Irken Spittle Runner. It contains many advanced features and hardly resembles the original ship whatsoever.

Appearance

The Blade Runner is grey, black, and blue, with two fang looking objects protruding from the sides. There are two engines on the rear of the ship, and a T looking window on the front of the ship. (See the picture to the right)

Features and Abilities

The Blade Runner is equipped with weapons on par with those used in The Massive, but on a smaller scale. It's primary weapons are plasma cannons on either side of the ship, proton smart missiles, and a large scale bio-electricity manipulator, similar to the one in VIR- Vex's SIR unit. Many other weapons are concealed behind various panels, such as grappling hook launchers, mines, and a hull built for ramming.

The Blade Runner is also equipped with the latest in ion propulsion, allowing Vex to travel at nearly the speed of light. This is an incredibly rare feature for a single pilot ship.(If anyone has any ideas, please put them on the "talk" for this page)

Uses

Vex has used the Blade Runner as his primary mode of transportation ever since he made it back on Vort. The Blade Runner played a pivotal role in Vex's Invasion of The Vortian System (Resistance camps), seeing as no other ship besides The Massive has plasma turrets strong enough to breach Vortian made high-tech shields.


Facts of Doom

  • The Blade Runner's name was inspired by Invader Ark, Vex's engineering student on Planet Vort, because of her constant carrying of swords. She gave him the idea for this name.
  • Invader Vex has never had another personal ship. Before he built it on Planet Vort, his only method of off world transportation was the Irken Public Transportation System.
  • The Blade Runner is one of four ships to be equipped with compound ion propulsion systems (Vex's own invention). The other two are The Massive and The Slice Runner.
