Bohwemoth

Behold now the behemoth that I have made with you; he eats grass like cattle.
Behold now his strength is in his loins and his power is in the navel of his belly.
His tail hardens like a cedar; the sinews of his testicles are knit together.
His limbs are as strong as copper, his bones as a load of iron.
His is the first of God's ways; [only] his Maker can draw His sword [against him].
For the mountains bear food for him, and all the beasts of the field play there.
Does he lie under the shadows, in the covert of the reeds and the swamp?
Do the shadows cover him as his shadow? Do the willows of the brook surround him?
Behold, he plunders the river, and [he] does not harden; he trusts that he will draw the Jordan into his mouth.
With His eyes He will take him; with snares He will puncture his nostrils.


Despite Kain's constant complaints otherwise, the Behemoth is a perfectly serviceable and reliable Gear transport. The vehicles large profile does tend to attract attention, but in the post-war period, there are more than a few around, and it just makes too much logistical sense to exchange for a less overtly military vehicle. That said, painting a shark's mouth on the cab doesn't make it blend in any better....

The Behemoth is now a little overloaded; one of the vehicle bas is literally stuffed with trooper gears in various states of (dis)repair. In fact, assistance from the Spitting Cobra was necessary in order to close the door.

The milspec standard pintle mount will fit either an AGL or an LMG, and a shoulder-fired SAM rests in the cab against the possible necessity of grounding an aircraft.

Camel Truck

Alice the camel's got five humps
Alice the camel's got five humps
Alice the camel's got five humps
So go Alice go, boom, boom, boom
Alice the camel's got four humps...

Formerly the property of the New Baja Gang, this Camel came to the Caravan fitted with a turntable mounted heavy guided mortar. This platform was used to great effect to harass New Baja during Kain and Sam's tenure as Marshals, and the mortar has been tucked away, "against a rainy day". The now simple flatbedded truck is used by the Caravan for medium hauling and for navigating areas too built up to access with a Longrunner. Unusually for a Camel, this truck has been fitted with the Caravan's ubiquitous roof pintle mount, aceepting either an LMG or an AGL. And, of course, a shoulder-fired SAM.

Recently, a light frame and removable cover has been added to the rear of the truck, to provide discretion for some of the caravan's more...shy...customers, and to provide more storage space.

Due to a perpetual shortage of hands, the Camel is towed on a dolly rig by one of the Longrunners during long hauls.

Antelope General Purpose

The Caravan has a variety of light vehicles for communiting, reconaissance, and other utility purposes. Rugged and dependable vehciles, the Antelope GP is suited for a variety of combat and non-combat roles. Given the Caravan's preternatural ability to encounter hostile forces, all are equipped with a swivel mount on the roll bar for an LMG or AGL. In addition, a shoulder-fired SAM is standard issue.

This is a fun-time car.

Jager

Benevole "Torch" Dolbeau was a minor contender in Gade's heat of the first Khayr-ad Din Dueling League Tournament. She nearly burned to death twice in the cockpit of her first Flammjager, "Barbie." Since losing her gear in the tournament, she has joined the Caravan and has been rolling with them since the Lance Point Gear Racing Rally. Though Torch is not particularly popular among the Caravan crew - she is quite unstable - she is a competent gear pilot and a decent duelist.

Though this Jager has been fitted with flame-resistant cloth, the Firemoth-16 flamer is only carried with the explicit consent of either Kain Delacroix or Kelly Lebeau.
