Description

Azlanti Star Empire manufacturer Vanguard Customworks is renowned for its specialized starships, including a number of luxury vessels. Much like for the Vanguard Star Palace, the commitment to comfort in the Regnant’s design makes travel on the vessel a joyous experience. Rather than house several noble families at once, the Regnant serves one master, and it does so with unabashed opulence. The owner—who usually functions as the captain—has her own suite, typically an entire deck that houses a lavish apartment, private bath, lounge, and office space. Near this master area is an imperial shrine where the owner can pay homage to her Azlanti ancestors.

While lavishness defines the owner’s suite, the rest of the ship is also splendidly furnished, and even its crew quarters approximate the chambers of royalty. The Vanguard Regnant has a modular layout that can hold the most extravagant entertainment and relaxation suites. Some models are fitted with upgraded armor and shields, with several armament options, allowing them to carry high-ranking Azlanti officers into war with style. Like all Azlanti Star Empire vessels, the Regnant is equipped with an autodestruct system, ensuring its high-value occupants won’t be taken hostage by enemy forces.
