Naydra-Class Airship

The Naydra-Class Airship is a lightly-armed transport developed by the Sovereign Aezenfjord Navy (SAN). It carries very few crew and primarily serves as a proof of concept of crimson-warp powered propulsion. One vessel of the class exists in Rathnir, SAS Naydra (A-01-001) in Vraelea. The class is named after the ancient dragon Naydra of myth, who is said to have carried the sages Medli and Laruto to southern Rathnir.

Crimson-Warp Propulsion

A researcher in the Faculty of Pure Sciences in the Naval College of Aezenfjord discovered that the volatile liquids produced by the nether trees, crimson and warp wood, are an extremely efficient fuel and oxidiser respectively. Commodore Wilfred Wexford of the SAN's Department of Shipbuilding and Design was very interested in this development and pushed for its incorporation into Aezenfjord ships. The Admiralty approved a proof-of-concept airship design to be used as a transport for high profile political passengers should it pass trials.

SAS Naydra

The SAS Naydra was then constructed on the 13th of July, 2021, and surpassed all expectations. It's maiden voyage to Vraelea was met with enthusiasm by both Aezenfjord and Vraelean authorities.
