corvette (eve online)
A type of spacecraft from EVE Online. Starting ships given free of charge, suitable for interstellar travel.
Little more than slower, armed shuttles, corvettes (formerly known as "rookies", "rookie ships" or "noobships") are the basic ships that new pilots start with. While corvettes aren't suited for serious combat, people field fleets composed entirely of corvettes, more for their comedy value than for their effectiveness in battle.
