Ashen Reach: Wayfarer Class Freighter

WAYFARER-CLASS UTILITY TRADER
Armed Frontier Transport — SWADE / Expanse-Style Traveller Hybrid

The Wayfarer-class Utility Trader is a rugged long-range civilian transport built for the harsh realities of frontier space. Though originally designed as a modular cargo hauler, most ships of the class have been heavily modified over decades of hard service into hybrid freighters, salvage platforms, escort ships, and semi-legal frontier traders. Wayfarers are common along unstable trade routes where reliability matters more than elegance, and crews expect to spend months operating far from major ports or naval protection. Among Belters and frontier spacers, the class has earned a reputation as a stubborn survivor: a ship that can absorb punishment, limp home on improvised repairs, and continue flying long after more sophisticated vessels would be dead in space. Many carry upgraded weapons, reinforced hull plating, expanded workshops, and patched-together systems accumulated across generations of ownership. No two Wayfarers are exactly alike for long.

600-ton Long Freighter

Converted from a Subsidized Liner of the sort common to Charted Space, the Long Freighter has been stripped of passenger-carrying capability, trading it instead for increased cargo space. The conversion yard removes all but four of the staterooms and five low berths for the six crew and any incidental passengers), as well as the common areas and the launch docking areas. In their place, the Long Freighter now carries two double beam laser turrets for self-defense, a "Slow Boat" for refueling and cargo transfer, and the ability to carry 260 tons of cargo. Like the original liner, the Long Freighter is not streamlined; this is not an issue thanks to the 19-ton capacity of the slow boat carried aboard. Long Freighters are externally similar to their ancestors, differing only in the absence of viewports, the addition of large cargo doors, and similar minor changes. The class mostly operates in regions away from "mains", especially in sparse frontier areas like the Trojan Reach.
