The Pretty Dinky was a frigate in the Fleetmind, under the command of Petey. The starship was designed for the sole purpose of transporting an orbital plasma lance that was three times its size.
The Pretty Dinky was used to eliminate the ruling council of the planet Qlaviql, and in turn was destroyed by the actions of a particularly brave Qlaviqloid with nothing but a rock freighter at his command.
