The Intrepid was a commercial JumpShip of unspecified type. As of 3027 its captain had a contract with ComStar by which the Intrepid made bulk deliveries to backwater worlds in the Lyran Commonwealth and the Draconis Combine.[1]
Because of the neutrality required for the contract, the captain refused to carry Lyran military personnel, fearing his ship might be impounded by the Draconis Combine. The Kell Hounds hoped to have Master Tech Sgt. Nicholas Jones leave Chara III with the Intrepid, but by early 3027 its DropShip was scheduled to leave the planet on 25 May, a day before Jones was to muster out.[1] To resolve the situation, the Kell Hounds made use of Pacifica's local time versus standard time and essentially set the official local clock ahead one day. This incidentally helped to save them from a sneak attack by enemy forces whose battle plan was thrown off by the unexpected change in local time.[2]
Still active during the Dark Age, the Intrepid was carrying RAF forces (Evan Kaiple among them) to their next front post destination.[3]
