Solar Wings

Prompt #2: Races

      Antal had wanted race for a while, but he didn't have money to buy a racing ship. His family all thought it was a waste of time and weren't going to help him. Deciding that it would be cheaper to make it himself, there were plans made immediately. After all, he's made a magic carpet before, how hard could it be? Using family connections, he was able to find an engineer to hear him out on his idea. Using his magic loom, Antal was able to make an enchanted cloth. There were a few attempts before it was deemed stable. The engines proved to be a bit more stubborn, and it took more than a few attempts to get that to work. Apirka Trom, an enthusiastic and spirited half orc, was hired as a tester. Her power of flight would be useful in these tests. After recruiting someone who could help them test, they were able to rent a ship and launch their first test.

Solar Wings: The sail works like a solar panel, providing energy for the engines. Any extra power goes to an emergency power source that kicks on as soon as there is no sunlight. These machines are light and fast, meant for speed and maneuverability. The downside, is durability and protection. There are plans to give newer models shields, and more upgrades that would be useful.
