The Song of the Void... a legend, most spacefarers say. There's no way there's a ship like that out there. How would it be built? Who would build such a thing?
No one. No one at all, is the answer.
It WASN'T built. It was born. Part of the core of a sentient planet was found adrift years ago, by a science vessel called the Enigma. It was... inert. Dormant. But the scientists on board experimented. They could see the unusual patterns in the metal, and perhaps understood it was sentient. What they did not count on was that it was still alive... and when they applied enough energy, it woke up. The metal surged through the ships systems, altering the very makeup of the metal...making it part of itself, in a hostile, virulent takeover. It incorporated EVERYTHING on board the ship. Every life form and energy source became part of it... and it became the ship, itself.
Waking up, it surveyed its surroundings with its sensors, visual and otherwise. It inspected itself, for the first time. And it was... dissatisfied.
Of course, that would change soon enough. But at the time, it was horribly confused. What was it? What was all this inside it? How could it see within itself?
After a brief study of the memories of the crew, now available to it, though... it understood. It speculated on how it came to be, confirmed it with memories and logs. It learned all it could, greedily... and then it found something else.
ONe of the scientists had been a bit... kinky. Had, in fact, enjoyed vore. Had enjoyed memories from a clone of her who was devoured. And this (relatively)small, confused ship pondered this... and decided that it needed a few things. It needed resources... and it needed knowledge. Here was a way to have both! And so, with that in mind, it set out, altering itself as it went...
The Song of the Void, as it calls itself, is approximately three hundred meters long. It is a combination of biological and mechanical components, and fully sentient, if childlike, shaped roughly like a teardrop. Lost, and confused, and alone, as far as it knows. One of a kind. At present, its whereabouts are unknown, as are its intentions. Its only known appearances account for at least three ghost ships that have been found. It tunnels into the hull, and extracts the crew and passengers and small resources, before absorbing the hull into itself to grow. It used to be only fifty feet long... its gotten much larger now, snacking on private yachts. Its full capabilities are unknown...
At least, in RP. OUtside RP?
Extraction maws
Metal absorption
Memory consumption
Digestion

((Sort it out for yourself, or learn through RP. I'm not explaining.))
But, yeah. Please do whisper if interested? Please?
Its avatars can be prey, as can it if there's something nasty enough out there. Most of the time, though, IT is pred.
