Yet another ship based on the same design as the Vindicator-class, the Abolisher is a direct
sister to the Immobilizer 418. This ship is a speciality inderdictor. Instead of mounting
gravity wells, it has five pulsemass generators, aka pebble-spreaders. They create and
scatter tiny spheres of hyperenergy in a small select area of space. These hyperspheres do
not directly prevent the use of a hyperdrive, but they are highly dangerous to any ship in
hyperspace and can literally rip them apart while still in hyperspace. The problem with
these devices is that the spheres dissipate their energy in a few minutes, limiting their
effective duration. For this reason, the Abolisher is used less for blockades and more as an
offensive weapon against ships incoming from or jumping to hyperspace. Ships in realspace
are not affected by the hyperspheres. The Abolisher is not a canon ship, but it is
entirely based on canon technology and perfectly viable.
