Description: The Thentus Frigate has been protecting the Regime since the Narn first took their first steps into space on their own. Built to replace the ramshackle ships the Narn had launched, this vessel was the first to use components of Narn technology without simply retrofitting them into a scavenged Centauri hull. It was a vast improvement over the cobbled-together ships it replaced. In the latter half of the 23rd Century, the Thentus has begun to show its age and is rarely used for anything more involved than anti-fighter support or system patrol escort duties.

The Thentus packs an older, less refined version of the burst beam – from an era when the Narn simply wanted to cause damage in any way they could. With this hull-cutting weapon and its sister, a medium laser cannon, partnered with several twin arrays, it holds a role in heavier combat but only as fire support and fighter clearance. It can be surprisingly daring though, and its burst beams have given more than one captain of an advanced warship a nasty surprise when they mistake the smallish vessel for a simple escort.
