Mazkertis (ship)

undefined

The Mazkertis was an enormous spaceship owned by the Pirate Lord of Liquid-Metallicon, Akzer, before his first death. It was later commandeered by Faroh and used to fight Blackout, but was destroyed by Darkmount's turrets.

History
The Mazkertis was used by Akzer to traverse the galaxy in many of his early ventures. He used it to get to and from Aluic-5, and later used its power core to track down Klak when he developed a grudge against the young Makuta. The Mazkertis was left unattended for a while when Akzer began to travel via teleportation instead, and was left without an owner altogether when Klak killed him.

Some time later, the Mazkertis was found by Faroh, who replaced its power core in case he ever needed to use it. Several months after he first found the Mazkertis, Faroh used it to attack Darkmount, but this attack was ignored because Darkmount's crew were focused on combating the Wigwam instead. When the Wigwam kamikazed Darkmount and exploded, Faroh warped the Mazkertis over to New Z'Traa and settled in its orbit. The Rogue Shadow parked next to it and D-Klak, Nadle, and Abneris teleported aboard the Mazkertis to meet Faroh. Faroh told the now-shipless Ynot that he could come aboard the Mazkertis, but Ynot declined, saying that he needed to build a ship of his own that could combat Darkmount. However, he told Faroh that he could beam up the rest of his crew apart from Sasuken (because he needed his help in building his new ship), so Faroh did so.

When the new crew of the Mazkertis found out that Blackout was planning to attack New Z'Traa, they decided to take preemptive action. D-Klak parked the Rogue Shadow inside of the Mazkertis. They then flew to Blackout's location (the BZP Planet) and opened fire on the Makuta, but this barely affected Blackout, who had since inhabited Darkmount as his body, and had his power amplified by Unicron's energy. Abneris briefly took control of the Mazkertis when Faroh and the others teleported out to fight Blackout, but he too was sucked out by another one of Blackout's attacks.

The now-crewless Mazkertis was destroyed by the turrets on Blackout's body before its crew could teleport back onto the ship.

Trivia

 * What connection this ship has to the character of the same name, if any, is unknown.
 * According to Figlio, the Mazkertis carried an orb that could take you "wherever your heart desired", but it was destroyed in the Uterio War.
