The Blue Channel is Broun's ship.

Appearance

The ship is almond or teardrop shaped, with added mech hangars forming a "belly". Its interior has a larger central area with branching hallways leading to sleep quarters, the engine room and so on. The Blue Channel has no artificial gravity, so there are handles to navigate along the hallways, and most rooms are taller than they are wide. Pipes in the ceiling offer a guide between different areas.

History

PARTIZAN

Valence uses their connections to procure the ship for Broun after Millennium Break takes Cruciat. In "The Red Light", Broun finds a message from Valence inside, along with the coordinates of the Nobel home world. They fly the Blue Channel throughout the "Escape Velocity" and "Operation Shackled Sun" arcs.

PALISADE

After the events of PARTIZAN, Brnine changes their name and remains on the run in the Blue Channel. They eventually become the captain of a small crew of guerillas operating on Palisade in support of the Cause. The Blue Channel is mechanically a Tier 5 Carrier and supported by (as yet unclear) technical advancements from Asepsis.

The crew has a reputation as a group of "weirdos who get shit done".

Crew

Trivia

The Blue Channel is a song by Taking Back Sunday.
