Kokuten

Ship Name: Candy's Cane
Hull: The hull of the Cane appears to be a pair of twisted colums, one red, one white. Slightly tapered at the tip and slightly flared at the base, the hull resembles a piece of candy, anodized in bright, flat red and white. The Cane has a detachable 'crook' at the tip, which contains two luxury 'waiting rooms' and the bridge and AI modules.
Drive: Speed drive, Max 0.075c.
Purpose: Recreational barge/Ultra-VIP transport.
Crook:
The Crook is a limited-duty shuttlecraft, capable of parking in two conventional parking spaces.
Drive: The Cane has a small Adjusted Mass reactionless rotor, capable of a massive 65mph at maximum overload thrust. normal speed is between a slow crawl and a 'brisk' 55 mph.
Purpose: Ultra-VIP parking shuttle.
Candy's Cane is a failed construction attempt. The structure is not suited for the sort of 'extreme manuevering' that a combat or rescue vessel will encounter. Damage to the ship will result in a tearing of the joint between the two 'candy' stripes, causing compartments to vent.
Quirks:
Spin It!: the Candy does not provide an artificial gravity field, unless it is spinning - if it is spinning, it provides a nice, flat, 1g field, no matter what the spin is. The field includes the 'crook', allowing VIP customers and crew to occupy it without suffering from rotational torque stress.
Ladies First: The Candy will respond to _any_ female operator before it will respond to any male operator.
I'm not _straight_ candy: When the 'Cane' is detached, the Candy does not move, aside from station keeping and very basic manuevering (such as for parking).
Crew:
The Candy Cane is owned by Candy, of Candy Red's, and is 'bound' to Candy herself. Normally, Candy acts as captain and primary hostess, and the ship is piloted by one of her lieutenants.
