Severance Package
Imperator Dross's flagship. A Crimson Guillotine rebuilt without the fury alloy and siege plating that gave the original its armor — the rebuilt hull takes hits harder. The cargo bays and tow system are untouched. The Crimson ship followed battle groups and processed what remained. This one follows Dross. The distinction between "battle group" and "Dross" is largely semantic at this point.

The Crimson Fleet built the Guillotine because reducing wreck fields to raw materials is skilled work that deserves a dedicated platform. The runner-up name was "Carrion." The fury alloy and siege plating are gone — the rebuilt hull runs on steel and salvage, takes hits harder, and has the same cargo capacity, the same tow system, and the same four weapon mounts. The only thing that changed is whose battle group it follows. The Crimson version followed at a respectful distance. Dross's version leads. The Dross Citadel station is built from the wreckage of three different warships. Most of the construction material came through this ship's cargo bays. Dross has been operating on the main inter-empire routes long enough that the station's architectural history is visible in the hull panels — different ship classes, different alloys, different failure modes. The Severance Package doesn't distinguish between categories. Everything eventually becomes cargo.
