Charon
Charon (animal) - a genus of amblypygid
An amblypygid is an invertebrate animal belonging to the order Amblypygi in the class Arachnida, in the subphylum Chelicerata of the phylum Arthropoda.
he was also the guy who ferried the dead across the styx in greek mythology wasn't he?
i'd always guessed that was the roots of that one 
Lol, the charon is the ultimate corpsemobile

Ferox
The Venezuelan Flycatcher, Myiarchus venezuelensis, is a passerine bird in the tyrant flycatcher family. It was formerly considered to be a race of the Short-crested Flycatcher, Myiarchus ferox, but the two species overlap without interbreeding in Venezuela, and the calls are different.

Stiletto
A stiletto is a long, narrow-bladed dagger. The word is also sometimes used in American English to refer to a switchblade, and is the origin of the term stiletto heel for a very thin, pointed heel on women's footwear.
This dagger is designed as a stabbing weapon, rather than for cutting, since its long narrow shape allows it to penetrate deeply in a point.
The Stilletto also was favored by assassins due to the triangular shaped cross section of the blade. Penetrating deeply, the skin when the blade was pulled out would almost close itself up, leaving very little bleeding. Utilizing the stiletto in a crowded place and under a cloak (where the term cloak and dagger came from), means the assassin would be long gone by the time anyone realized the victim was stabbed.

Wiaatt!! Isn't cataclysm already got named for one of the cruise missiles??
How about "Catastrophe" for Amarr tier 3 BS instead?
Catastrophe may mean:
* A disaster, sometimes used to mean an unusually severe disaster. (Most common meaning.)
* In ancient Greek tragedies, the solution of the plot.
* In the field of sociology it is defined as social change of an outstanding radical and rapid character, with highly magical explanations by victims and others.
* The title of a book by David Keys about the Climate changes of 535-536.
* Catastrophe, a play by Samuel Beckett.
Related phrases:
* As a technical and a computer-related term, "catastrophic failure" usually refers to a failure within a system which leads to failure of the system as a whole.
* In insurance, catastrophe modeling is the process of projecting the losses which could be sustained due to an extreme natural or man-made catastrophic event.
* In mathematics, catastrophe theory studies how the behaviour of dynamical systems can change drastically with variations in certain parameters.
* In finance, catastrophe bonds are risk-linked securities used to transfer risks due to extreme natural or man-made disasters.

Although I originally suggested the Ostridge, maybe the Caldari need something that inspires slightly more terror in someones pod, like the Cobra. But on the otherhand, if there was maybe a "Bury head 5% deeper into sand per level" bonus...
