Phantom Drive technology is a form of faster-than-light travel developed by the Vokyran Ascendancy.

Development

Phantom Drive development happened exclusively on Voyakarai due to breakthroughs in quantum technologies. For Ashderian military, governmental, and science vessels, Phantom Drive technology replaced Alcubierre warp drive technology and other proposed/experimental forms of FTL travel once refined.

Functionality

The Phantom drive phases the ship in-between the normal dimensional universe, and the sub-dimensional universe named "Nightspace". This causes the ship to simultaneously be in both dimensions at once, but also tangibly in neither. Both dimensions exert nigh-equal force on the vessel, trying to force it into one or the other. The vessel uses this tremendous force to its advantage, exploiting the forces exerted by both universes to propel the vessel at extreme velocities in whichever direction the user so chooses.

Trivia

  • The name "Phantom Drive" comes from the name given to the violently moving energy that can be seen flowing around the ship currently using the drive. The 'Phantoms'--more specifically the two waves of energy above and below the vessel--are light emitted from energy streams.
  • The development of Phantom Drive technology is how the Vokyran Ascendancy to discovered the Skreeon particle.
