Soiyo

The Soiyo

"Well? What do you think?"

- Jasca Ducato

 The Sioyo  was the personal command ship for General Ducato towards the end of the Yuuzhan Vong war.

A prototype of the new Galaxy-class, the vessel was designed capable of travelling outside of the galaxy into the void of outer space.

Specifications
The Sioyo was the first of the Galaxy-class battleship line. It was 21,500 meters long, over twelve times the length of an Imperator-class Star Destroyer, and just slightly larger than the Executor, but considered by many to be almost a carbon copy of the dreaded warship. It carried more than 6,000 turbolasers and ion cannons, 18 wings of X-wing and 6 wings of B-wing fighters, at least 380 other combat and support ships, 2 prefabricated garrison bases, and enough republic troopers and Jedi Knight to defeat any threat to the New Republic.

Crew Compliment
The Soiyo had a total crew compliment of 56,000 and an emergency limit of 68,000 in case of disasters.


 * Officers-6,892
 * Ship Maintenance-15,500
 * Gunnery Personal-12,000
 * Hanger Personal-3,800
 * Non-Hanger Support Personal-6,000
 * New-Republic Troopers-9,808
 * Jedi Order Members-5,000
 * Civilian Crewmembers (Families et al)-4,000

Jedi Training Facilities
Although not designed as a Jedi Academy Vessel, The Soiyo was more than capable of training and fielding a massive Jedi Task Force of roughly 5,000. The vessel was even equipped with its own Jedi Council, headed by Jasca Ducato. The vessel also held 48 Arenas designed to assist the Jedi knights in their training.

10 Year Mission
Almost two years after the Yuuzhan Vong War The Soiyo was sent into the Unknown Regions with the mission of investigating rumours of a post-Palpatine Sith Order, however its mission took The Soiyo far beyond the edge of the galaxy and has since been classed "MIA" by the Galactic Alliance. It is currently unknown what has become of The Soiyo.

It later became apparent that The Soiyo had once again followed Jasca Ducato to the dark-side when it returned to the galactic theatre at the head of a Sith Invasion fleet.

Return
It later became apparent to the Jedi and the galaxy as a whole that The Soiyo had, by 58 ABY returned, only this time at the head of a Sith Armada. Jasca Ducato 18:30, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
