Description: Transport pods are small unarmed craft typically found in service to Leviathans. Transport pods are multi-role ships that can be used to transport just about anything, as demonstrated by Moya's crew. They are made from the same bio-mechanoid material as Leviathans such as Moya but are not sentient like a leviathan. They are alive but need to be manually controlled by a pilot and/or crew. Moya grows these pods in her transport hangars. Pilot's control over each Pod is limited to monitoring onboard systems and communicating with passengers. Everything else depends on the flight crew.
Pods required a number of components to keep them operational including 3k wire and narium coils.
