Overview

The T'varo-class Light Warbirds have been in service of the Romulan Star Empire since at least mid-22nd century when two vessels of this class were encountered by the NX-01 Enterprise.

Fast, light, and maneuverable, the T'varo class has been upgraded over time and remains in use by both the Romulan Star Empire and the newly-formed Romulan Republic.

The T'varo-class Retrofit is a further improved Light Warbird variant intended for Republic's Vice Admirals.

Class variants

Class	Information
Purchasing the Legendary T'liss Light Intel Warbird for 12,000 unlocks all existing ship variants.
T'varo class	SKIN UNLOCK: Free The T'varo class is based on a design used during the 22nd century. They are similar in design to the T'liss, but with sharper edges and a more dagger-like appearance. T'varo follows standard avian-like design lineage of other Romulan vessels.
T'liss class	SKIN UNLOCK: T'liss Temporal Warbird, 1 The T'liss class dates back to the 23rd century, where one served as the flagship of the Romulan Star Empire. They are relatively simplistic in design, and feature a unique paint scheme depicting a bird-of-prey on the underside.
T'liss class Refit	SKIN UNLOCK: Legendary T'liss Light Intel Warbird, 12,000 The T'Liss Refit as it appeared in the Star Trek: Picard episode "Absolute Candor". This is a slightly modified look for the ship, with some more modern materials to reflect how it had been updated by its captain, Kar Kantar, since the ship's prime.
Malem class	SKIN UNLOCK: Malem Light Warbird, 3,000 The Malem class is a new Light Warbird variant built by the Romulan Republic in 2410. The Malem follows the standard avian-like design of the original Romulan warbird, but also keeps up with modern design trends, featuring smoother and more organic lines and edges.
