According to [[CS-NA]]'s internal encyclopedia, tachyonic ships function by “capturing the natural flow of faster-than-light [[tachyon]] particles (created as a byproduct of the linear passage of time)” with their tachyonic sails. This allowed them to sail onto a “poorly-understood ‘layer’ of time” known as the [[Chronon Sea]], where they can be manually sailed onto the timestreams of individual parallel universes. | According to [[CS-NA]]'s internal encyclopedia, tachyonic ships function by “capturing the natural flow of faster-than-light [[tachyon]] particles (created as a byproduct of the linear passage of time)” with their tachyonic sails. This allowed them to sail onto a “poorly-understood ‘layer’ of time” known as the [[Chronon Sea]], where they can be manually sailed onto the timestreams of individual parallel universes. Because they followed different principles than conventional [[Void Ship]]s, they could sometimes get past barriers meant to stop ordinary Void Ships, in the same sense that mundane boats could pass through no-fly zones with defences in place to stop aeroplanes. | ||
The [[Consistency Imperium]]'s tachyonic sailing ships were remarkably sturdy, able to flip over several times on solid ground without breaking.

On the day of the Imperium's fall, the [[Faction of the Fooling Fish]] made off with one of their sailing ship, with which they also brought [[Marksmanship-522]], [[Tracker-764]], [[Bibliophile-962]] and [[Pythagoras-858]] back to the [[Cupid Homeworld]]. It was photographed by [[Nadar-124]] materialising in the Homeworld, with the picture ending up on the front page of ''[[The Cupid Courier]]''. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Rifts Crisis Officially Over!

In December 2021, [[CS-NA]] landed aboard the Ship by chance while using his [[Dematerialisation Engine]] with random coordinates. The Faction convinced him to help them steer their ship past a treacherous dimensional barrier and into a heavily-warded pocket universe which they named [[Dimension Zeta-32-Orangepeel-Grbbrzkwlkglb]].
