Kualsi X3

The Kualsi X3 is a aerial vehicle used by the Zeverek bounty hunter Skorr, originally manufactured by the Vortixx of Xia.

History
Originally designed as the prototype for a line of courier vehicles, the Kualsi X3 was designed for speed and fast scouting by the Vortixx specialists on the island of Xia. The line was originally intended to be a for beings who required a vehicle to travel around the universe quickly, though it quickly garnered maximum profit when it became a hit among various illegal crime groups, notably the Dark Hunters. Though the Vortixx found such vehicles to be a massive money-maker, they reluctantly closed down the line when it became too challenging and expensive for them to create more of them. Being the first successful model of the line, the Vortixx christened the first unit the "Kualsi X3," after the Matoran word for "Quick Travel," and kept it on Xia as a reminder of its success.

Eventually, the infamous Zeverek mercenary Skorr took an interest in the transport, and found himself needing a fast vehicle that could take him to other islands whenever his wing blades and teleportation device failed him. After charging an exorbitant amount of pay for the machine, the Vortixx eventually agreed to hand the Kualsi X3 over to Skorr.

Using it mainly to travel to diffeent islands whenever his teleportation gauntlet was recharging, Skorr would use the Kualsi in favor of his wing blades, due to the fact that his wing blades didn't have the power and energy necessary to make the distance between entire islands before needing to recharge. Immediately after the vehicle came into his care, Skorr allowed his Matoran blacksmith Invex to perform a number of modifications that enhanced the Kualsi's speed and capabilities.

Features
The Kualsi X3 is equipped with an energy blaster of some kind, which can focus an unknown sort of destructive firepower down upon its targets. It has additionally been equipped with a scope to assist Skorr in aiming his shots. This energy is siphoned off from the engine of the Kualsi, and is normally power that is too unstable to be burned out in flight, so it is recycled in the vessel's weapon. The Kualsi X3 utilizes two pairs of large fins for aerodynamic purposes

Though it wasn't too sophisticated, the Kualsi is tough and durable, being able to take a number of severe hits and still keep going. Despite this, its most striking feature is the advanced levels of speed it can reach, and it is noted for having brilliant acceleration. The cockpit of the vehicle is fairly straightforward, though the controls and steering systems take some time to understand before they can be properly mastered. However, the weakness of the cockpit is that it leaves its pilot exposed and open to attack. it has additionally been equipped with landing gear in the form of two mechanical frontward legs, which will magnetize immediately upon landing to stabilize the vehicle.

Trivia

 * The Kualsi X3's fundamental structure is a modified version of the Toa Ignika Skyboard, with only difference being that the Skyboard's form is being used upside down for the Kualsi's purposes.
