To dodge pirates, the ship deliberately avoided standard shipping lanes but nevertheless fell prey to [[Tammy Chen|Tammy "Angles" Chen]], after she had determined the ship's destination and divined its likely jump routes. In [[3059]] the ''Queen of the Void'' was waylaid on her fourth run by Angles' pirates in an uninhabited stopover system. At the time, she carried ''[[Mule]]'' and ''[[Mammoth]]'' class [[DropShip]]s on all six [[hardpoint]]s. + The '''''Queen of the Void''''' was a [[Star Lord (JumpShip)|''Star Lord'']]-class [[JumpShip]] operating in the Periphery. The ship The pride of any far Periphery merchant fleet. − [[Peter Welton|Peter "Skipjack" Welton]] remained back on the pirate JumpShip ''[[Raider (Individual Merchant-class JumpShip)|Raider]]'' when Angles seized the ''Queen of the Void''. He figured that the ''Raider'' with its crew and pair of ''[[Leopard CV]]'' DropShips was actually more valuable than the freighter, as the outfit would allow him to capture many more similarly valuable prizes. To get rid of Angles and make himself the leader of the pirate crew, he sabotaged the ''Queen of the Void'' by inserting a malware program into the ship's navigation core that would crash the computer in mid-jump. As planned, the ''Queen of the Void'' misjumped and vanished when the pirates returned to their base system. + The ship was hijacked by Pirate Master [[Tammy Chen|Agnes]] when carrying Mules and Mammoths in all six docking collars. "[[Captain]]" [[Peter Welton|Peter "Skipjack" Welton]] put a Trojan in the ship's navigation core in [[3059]] and though it had destroyed it. − During interrogation as an [[Outworlds Alliance]] prisoner on 8 July [[3065]], shortly before his unexplained death (reportedly by hanging himself in his cell despite being monitored around the clock), "Skipjack" Welton presented a photo of a ''Star Lord''-class JumpShip, with the partially visible legend "''...UEEN OF THE VO...''" on the fuselage. He claimed that this vessel as photographed through the ''Raider'''s main telescope had arrived at the zenith [[jump point]] of the pirates' base system eighteen days before, making him jump out immediately in fear.+ On [[3065]] the ship reappeared, though who was piloting it at that time is unknown.<ref name="IP2p47">''Jihad Conspiracies: Interstellar Players 2'', pp. 47, "MYSTERIES OF THE DEEP"</ref> − − While there are no other reported sightings of the ''Queen of the Void'' and no other witnesses to support Welton's story, analysis by the Outworlds Alliance authorities who had captured Welton thought the picture genuine after careful study, and even managed to determine the star system it was taken in by analyzing the visible stars. The system turned out to have a freshly abandoned pirate base on its fourth planet. − − "A couple years ago" prior to [[3072]] (but implicitly after 3065) the [[House Kurita]] JumpShip ''[[Kokpekty Maru]]'' was seized and ravaged by space pirates, leaving it a gutted hulk in space. A three-second video clip from a security camera was recovered that showed one of the raiders, tentatively identified as Tammy "Angles" Chen. − − The implication is that, following its misjump, the ''Queen of the Void'' materialized at its jump destination after some six years in [[jump stasis]], in a fashion similar to the SLS ''[[Manassas (Individual Aegis-class WarShip)|Manassas]]'', and that Tammy Chen continued her piracy, and by extension may or may not have killed Welton.<ref name="IP2p47">''Jihad Conspiracies: Interstellar Players 2'', pp. 47-49, "MYSTERIES OF THE DEEP"</ref> ==References== ==References==
