Chosen One has the ability to apparently defy physics by putting such mundane matters as mass and inertia aside, and thus can make incredible vector changes (high-speed perpendicular turns, doubling back on itself with no braking, etc.). It possesses one offensive weapon: a greeny-gold beam of concentrated gamma radiation: when this touches any part of its target prey, an incredibly accelerated and cascading form of "radiation sickness" is put into effect, where the molecular bonds of the material making up the target ship are simply broken by the energetic particles in that beam. Essentially the target almost immediately just "isn't there anymore."

Chosen One is run by an intelligent cyberbionic computer brain (which can link with other ships of its kind) which can extrapolate into four dimensions any enemy's intended movements, and can then alter the position of the ship nanoseconds before any action is taken against it. Bearing only these four means of defense/offense, it nevertheless is an extremely difficult ship to defeat or capture. It is physically described as being made of something "not quite metal," being a brilliant greeny-gold in color, and possessing "strange geometries very difficult to look upon."
