This ship’s last term of service ended violently and drifted as a ghost ship for at least a millennium. The derelict showed signs of both a cover up (data wiped, markings marred) and scavenging (valuable parts missing). The logic engines and black box had been torn from its innards, and the names of the victims and the ship’s original name were never discovered. The wreckage and debris of this ship was refurbished by Inquisitor Adrianna Quist for service in the Deathwatch and renamed Caliginous, but its machine spirit never fully recovered and the residual deaths of its past keeps it company.
