The Republic of Texas
The Abilene-class starships that carry Texas Rangers across the stars are different from those that once sailed the void. The crew quarters that once served 150 tightly-packed crew and scientists have been reduced to a handful of single-occupancy quarters for the cybernetic crew and their assigned Ranger. The remaining space primarily houses holding cells and storage for relief supplies, weapons, armor, and other equipment. An Abilene carries enough supplies for a Ranger to outfit a posse of any conceivable size, or to bring relief to a community leveled by a natural disaster. Rangers are often the first to arrive after such incidents, making a well-provisioned Abilene a welcome sight wherever disasters occur throughout known space.
