The Sherimar were a once powerful race of interstellar traders and merchants. They will always be remembered for this, and for the grandiose scale on which they built. The J-53 model was the largest cargo vessel in their fleet, and its unique design made it recognizable on sight. The main hull of the J-53 is best described as a hollow cylinder. Placed in a horizontal position, the "walls" of the cylinder are a couple hundred meters thick, providing the compartments of the ship itself. The remaining thousand meters on the inside of the cylinder house the engineering section and the propulsion systems, connected to the main hull by a series of support struts, which runs almost the length of the cylinder. Cargo was loaded and off-loaded within the dozen bays near the aft of the main hull, accessed from the inside of the "hollow." Token weaponry was added to the vessel to help clear obstacles from its path. It was no match for pirates or marauders. About twenty years after the J-53 was first seen in the [[Par'tha Expanse]], the Sherimar disappeared, never to ply the tradelanes again. | The Sherimar were a once powerful race of interstellar traders and merchants.
