Page 18 of 18 Thus, the Stellar Fleet focused most of its research and development on
designing advanced anti-fighter capital ships to protect the FEDs against
terrorist raids. The Aardvark was the most deadly of this class of capital
ship. With its vitrilium armor and advanced detection systems, it was generally
considered fool-hardy for a full squadron of fighters, even Badgers, to attack
an Aardvark.
9) Little is known of Tomos the Eunuch. It is believed his real name was
Tomos Kuhpr, who reached the rank of Fleet Commander. Fleet records, at least
those available for public viewing, do not list any crimes against Fleet
Commander Kuhpr, but his departure from the Stellar Fleet coincides with the
first references to Tomos the Eunuch. There are also no records concerning
what, if any, information Tomos the Eunuch managed to steal. The only fact we
know for certain is this: Whether the traitor was Tomos Kuhpr or another Tomos,
he was not a Eunuch prior to his arrest and interrogation.
