The Coriolis (working name and subtitled as "The Littlest Baby," in reference to The Biggest Baby) is a ship bought by the protagonists of Campaign 6: Ethersea to fulfill their terms of hire with the Bluespan Brokerage. It was purchased from Desdemona using the lux earned from the Gallery Job, and has been subsequently outfitted by Felix. Devo is the primary pilot of the ship; per their registration with the Bluespan Brokerage, Amber is listed as captain.
Description[]
The basic structure of the Coriolis is that of a bathyscaphe, a deep sea exploration vehicle, with a detatchable bathysphere pod, similar in structure to the bath-houses used residentially in Founders' Wake. The main body of the ship is a fuchsia color with green flame decals, while the bathysphere (attached at the main ship's underbelly) is a dark purple. The bridge is a retractable disc at the ship's top, providing an imperfect 360-degree view of the surroundings. The bridge, and the Coriolis as a whole, is noted as not being particularly sleek, with a thick shell and a wide and broad form. It has the vibe of an office building from the seventies, but not in cool way. The galley of the ship is called Mom's Pantry.
The ship's propulsion is delivered by a system of air jets, forming a "bubble tub skin" - this allows for direct sideways movement through the water, as well as other, stranger maneuvers. Interior rooms can be independently sealed to prevent flooding, and showed some signs of wear prior to the repairs and cleaning done by Felix's shipworms. To facilitate landing on the sea floor without crushing the pod, the Coriolis possesses telescoping landing gear.
