The Wiki Knows All. Or at least it knows most; most of the finished stories, all of the stuff currently in the gazetteer sticky + a good deal more besides, pretty pictures from the resident Illustrator freak, etc. That's the best place to go to get an overview of what we've done. Editing requires an account, but that's easy enough to get.
ETA: And because I'm in a reasonably good mood for a Tuesday, here's the Magnificent Midnight's ship registry entry slightly edited & wikified for your convenience. Enjoy.

====== SS Magnificent Midnight ======
===== History =====
//tba, preferably by blackaeronaut at some point. Capsule for those who've forgotten: Midnight was the price the SOS-dan paid to get Benjamin Rhodes on as their official Ace Bishounen Pilot back at SOS-Con. The Blackbird itself was the one sitting outside Lackland AFB, which no doubt made for an interesting story in acquiring the silly bloody thing.//
===== Known Vehicle Quirks =====
* **//I can't drive fifty-five://** This ship loves to go fast. Period. And whatever you do, do not get in her way or else you'll wind up like the Curacoa when it met the Queen Mary.
* **//I'm Pointy://** Her uber-sleek and pointy looking hull is a weapon unto itself. With it, she can slice and dice ships smaller than herself.
* **//Lemmeout!Lemmeout!Lemmeout!://** She will only stay in one place long enough for cargo to be loaded or unloaded. Afterwards, she will take off and zoom around. Fortunately, she's also a loyal ship and will come back once called for if you give her a little bit of time to roam around.
* **//Daredevil://** The only thing she likes more than going fast is going fast through a densly packed asteroid field.
* **//Respect Is Earned://** While she's generally sweet natured (if a bit mischievous) to Benjamin and Gina, all others must earn her respect.
* **//Ptichka's Little Sister://** Oddly enough, she communicates pretty much the same way the infamous //Ptichka// does and possesses many of the same mannerisms, only with the kind of spunk and sassy attitude you'd expect from a "Little Sister".
===== Trivia =====
* //Midnight// is the fastest interplanetary and interstellar ship in Fenspace, capable of sprint speed up to 19% light speed inside the Limit and 520x light speed outside.
* Even though a substantial amount of interior space has been converted from fuel tankage to cargo and living space, it is VERY cramped inside. So much that getting out of the pilot's seat and into the cabin requires reclining the seat, grabbing ahold of handles overhead, and dragging yourself out. It is for this reason that Ben really likes his weekends off, no matter how much fun it is to zoom around in //Midnight//.
* //Midnight// does have some passive stealth capabilities just as she did before she was handwaviumized. Ergo when she turns off her transponder, looking for her in the big-black will be as much fun as looking for a needle in a haystack because her radar signature is about the size of a standard bedroom door.
