			===Blue Planet Tech Room Description===
			The Purusha was a frigate in service in the Federation Navy.

			In 2356 the Strategic Imperative Paper was released by the military intelligence group BULWARK. This was a landmark document that had two aims: to identify areas of improvement from previous fleet doctrines and to deduce what would be required of the nascent Federation Navy. The Paper was the harbinger of a period of volatility in warship design. The defense industry had been long constrained by economic depression and military collapse - it now had the means and mandate to implement radical new doctrine. In this period several revolutionary new concepts were birthed, some more successful than others.

			One such revolution was the frigate. This new line of warship was conceptualised as a strike platform to occupy a space within the yawning chasm of capability that had existed between cruisers and destroyers. Frigates would be better armed and armoured than cruisers, but cheaper to build and operate than a capital ship. These new warships would have the teeth to engage major hostile assets in battle, but not be so singularly valuable that their potential would be unrealised by skittish admirals. The incorporation of a small fighter hangar into the design was debated at great length by the Admiralty, with the decision being made not to sacrifice armour and firepower. Fighter carrying capacity would be left to the destroyer flagships as per previous doctrines.

			The Purusha emerged as the first of her kind and for a time she was the pinnacle of post-GTA naval power in Sol. The first Purusha rolled out of the dockyards in 2363, and at a stroke rendered every other combat warship in Sol obsolete. She had more firepower than any cruiser that came before her, armed with mass drivers and heavy antimatter torpedoes. Utilisation of supply-hungry but energy-efficient ammunition-based armaments allowed the majority of her reactor output to be allocated to engine performance. She was twice as fast as the venerable Fenris strike cruiser despite the frigate's superior tonnage, armour and firepower.

			The Purusha was extensively deployed against the Gaian Effort, suffering significant losses during Third Fleet's campaign in the system outer rim. With the introduction of the Karuna, she was reclassified as a light frigate and phased out of frontline duty. No Purushas remain in the order of battle of the Federation's three line fleets. Most hulls of the class were decommissioned and yarded in case of emergency reactivation. A few demilitarized Purushas still fly as fast couriers for private interests.

			===Blue Planet Tech Room Description (GEFg Purusha)===
			For a few brief years the Purusha was the pinnacle of post-GTA naval power in Sol. One of the first designs commissioned for the nascent Federation Navy, the Purusha emerged from a defense industry long constrained by economic depression and military collapse - an industry that now had both the means and the mandate to implement radical new doctrine.

			By modern standards, the Purusha suffers from her age and status as a firstborn. Lightly armed and armored, she mounts no fighterbay and cannot safely operate alone. But she defined the traits of the modern Federation warship - fast, armed with torpedoes and mass drivers and screened by sophisticated point defenses, built around a gravity drive. While she resembles both of her descendants, her spaceframe is actually a direct ancestor of the Narayana class.

			No Purusha frigates remain in the order of battle of the Federation's three line fleets. Most hulls of the class were decommissioned and yarded in case of emergency reactivation. Some were towed for scrap, though incomplete paperwork in the purchasing process has birthed a small flock of conspiracy theories. A few demilitarized Purushas still fly as fast couriers for private interests.
