Chaf Envoy

The Chaf Envoy was a Chiss cruiser, used as a diplomatic ship by Aristocra Chaf'orm'bintrano of the Fifth Ruling Family in 22 ABY during the rediscovery of Outbound Flight.

The Chaf Envoy was somewhat more that two hundred meters long, with a hull-design in which flat planes and angular edges predominated. The ship's appearance was highly distinctive, but it reminded those who encountered her of an asteroid, or a half-finished sculpture of a Mon Calamari Star Cruiser with the roughly-hewn form not yet smoothed into curves.

She was outfitted with half-bays on either flank, in which shuttles and courier ships such as the fifty-meter Jade Sabre could dock. From there, important visitors were typically ushered to a grand reception chamber that could be quickly configured with the appropriate decorations to greet dignitaries of the Chiss Ruling Families. Other cabins, such as the main dining area and the staterooms provided for guests, were smaller and more restrained in style, but elegantly-appointed and carefully-designed.

Although a diplomatic ship, the Chaf Envoy had a military crew, under Captain Brast'alshi'barku, and she was conned from a command centre sited deep inside the hull, in which a podium for the officers overlooked the main viewscreen and the consoles for the crewers. The limits of her combat capabilities may be suggested by the fact that a Paskla-class ship in a military configuration could be considered a serious threat.
