History

The SFCV Whisperer (BB2-03) is the third of the second generation of Praetorian-class battleships, and was commissioned in 2353 CE. The Whisperer has been largely assigned to convoy duties and stiffening the Colonial Security Force.

In 2498 CE, the Whisperer was assigned on a long-term assignment as the flagship of the Charyn System Patrol. In 2503 the Whisperer was in the Arc System for repairs and refits, when it was caught in the middle of the Heart of Winter Incident, and severely damaged, requiring time in drydock for repairs.
