Armament

Stewart's Dagger is equipped with two Advanced Stunpulse anti-shield weapons, as well as three "Hellflurry"-type weapons. It is capable of firing the two anti-shield weapons and its turret or the two primary guns indefinitely, though it is more common to see just the stunpulse weapons being fired.

Defenses

The Dagger is defended primarily by an off-the-shelf light fighter shield, the SM-B2 "Advanced Sconce". It is also protected by light armor, though this passive protection is utilized almost exclusively in losing engagements.

Modus Operandi

Stewart takes missions pertaining to the destruction of structures almost exclusively, and in so doing often goes into battle underequipped as ships guarding the target are not a priority. Because they are not a priority, all he needs to do is dodge fire long enough to destroy the target and return home. Thus, he does not pirate transports as often as others, but will stop and execute Ageiran transports without second thought or later remorse.

Stewart at an Ageira lecture

Richard Stewart was born on the fifth day of November in 796 A.S. on Trenton Station. The son of a Planet Pittsburgh yard foreman, he was informally educated in all things mechanical, as well as basic chemistry and trigonometry. After his eighth birthday, he enrolled in one of Planet Manhattan's many public secondary schools. Throughout his high school career, he had earned credit after credit picking pockets and playing intricate confidence schemes. After being nearly captured by an LPI patrol in 814, he found passage on a transport ship to Detriot. As everyone who's anyone in the computer world has been there, he was quickly noticed in Detriot's infamous bar, always typing away on his Perso-Puter 1000. He was offered a position as a Developer. The recruiting office liked his code sample, and he was put to work in their "Inter-Corporate Office". He soon realized the purpose of this division was actually to "stamp out" any possibility of competition, as well as general corporate espionage. Not having a problem with this, Stewart was given the task of writing a worm that kicked back internal memos and requests. Ironically, it was this very worm that exposed to Ageira LPI's classified case file on their illegal practice of using TLAGSNET to buy at lower prices from and sell at higher prices to traders who bought from Ageira's competitors. Months later, one of the computer viruses Ageira used to stir up their demand was traced back to them. Headquarters decided to blame this on Stewart as punishment for making the company look bad when he refused to talk to the press about the incident.
