Kaveri is a workship operated by Clearwell Waterworks from Baikal. Its work includes maintenance, recovery, and small cargo jobs. Like ordinary civilian and industrial ships, it is unarmed.

Kaveri design proposal in plan, side, forward, and three-quarter views: a raised crew module, open work cradle, side transfer collar, and paired aft engines.
Design proposal. Four views of one shared shape model. Construction, dimensions, equipment placement, and colors remain concepts, not engineering specifications or a gameplay loadout. Open design sheet.

Work and crew

The ship is a working tool and a shared workplace, not the captain's personal property. Jonah Mercer is an established employee who knows the work and is responsible for the people aboard.

All five are cross-trained. Their responsibilities meet in the operation of one ship, from planning an approach to making its arrival useful to the people waiting at the destination.

Name

Kaveri takes its name from an Earth river, following Clearwell's ship-naming tradition. Ebro, the company's water hauler, belongs to the same family of names.
