Belle Aire
Part of the crew
Power Generation
Like all Amper Heavy Industries ships, the Belle Aire relies on a lodestone-based power system, which allows ships to operate for the length of the lodestone (about 50 years) before it needs to be brought back to a shipwright for lodestone replacement. While in the air, a rotating ring located near the stern uses sails to augment the power produced by the lodestone (this is a feature in more modern yachts)
Propulsion
The Belle Aire uses primarily lodestone propulsion to move through the air, although auxiliary propulsion can be generated through the use of sails located near the bow and stern sides of the ship.
Weapons & Armament
The Belle Aire is equipped with a harpoon assembly on the port and starboard sides. As an exploratory ship, it is light on weaponry, although the current crew's complement of ranged magic casters render it capable of holding its own while in the air.
Armor and defense
The Belle Aire is equipped with heavy armor to defend it from environmental wear, although it does have slots on its hull to allow for ablative armor.
Hangars & docked vessels
Being one of the larger yachts of its class, the Belle Aire possesses two one-person aerial skimmers for short-range journeys when moored.
