Moya
Moya
is a Leviathan starship, essentially a living ship. Though she is
technically made of metal parts, much of her is organic as well, and
she is a sentient being, though in much the same way a whale is
sentient.Ba Moya has thoughts, feelings, and she can make decisions
based on input from the crew, and though she cannot converse with them,
she can nonetheless understand the things they say to her. Moya was
originally a Peacekeeper vessel that escaped from Peacekeeper control
due to the actions of D'Argo, Rygel and Zhaan. She was able to escape
being taken back in to Peacekeeper custody when Crichton calculated a
way for her to slingshot around a planet and achieve a previously
unknown velocity for Leviathans. Moya is a transport ship, and she is
only happy when there are people aboard her. She is deathly afraid of
being left alone, and though she prefers Crichton and the crew, she is
happy with anybody at all. Moya is deathly afraid of wormholes and
planets, preferring to stay away from both, but this becomes difficult
for her as Crichton's wormhole research progresses.
