All aboard the psychotic ship the Finny! Xynthica's main vehicle, you'd think that the Finny would be lost technology from before the Xyniverse was created just like everything else, but nope, the Finny is really just a souped up suicide shuttle with a few key differences that has earned it the reputation for being one of the two most feared small space ships in the Xyniverse, including, but not restricted to the girly paint job. Although the interior of the Finny is made up of regular material used in spaceship construction, the heavy shield like head of the ship is actually made from the same thing the Snail Blade is, which is unbreakable Amaranis Snail Shell. What this translates into is a ship that's main form of attack is literally a full frontal kamikaze suicide attack, but instead of being destroyed, the Finny rams straight through anything it hits, utilizing the power of it's superior Omnidrive, allowing ordinary maneuvering speeds that are actually faster than hyper warp speeds of other ships. Frequently, the Finny will destroy a ship at such an incredible velocity that people wouldn't even have a chance to see it coming with radars, let alone the naked eye. Of course, the Finny takes an incredible pilot to be able to use effectively, and who would have thought that a little girl who collects caltrops in the spring time would be the one? Now, you'd think that the Finny would use some hardcore VR interface to steer all of it's complex systems, but the truth is, the Finny seems to practically run on DOS.

In time, the Finny gets upgraded with an arm like extension that allows for it to rip off parts and weapons off of enemy ships and various cable connections that can entrap and hack into computer systems. The Finny also gets a main weapon, known as the "Light Year", which although only has enough power for one attack per charge, can slash an energy blade for approximately the distance of a light year and cleave anything in it's way, similar to the weapon Kilometer that it is based on. The ship's computer interface also is upgraded into an OS that has a pretty cute hologram girl as the spirit of the ship, along with a system of information input and analysis known as the highly experimental SHIPON - KS, named after a legendary pilot and programmer.

The Finny does have one weakness though, it doesn't have any energy shields. Apparently, originally being a suicide ship, the original designers of it's body didn't take into account the fact that it might actually live to see another day before Xyni refitted it.
