* {{sh|Pacifier}}

The [[Sisters of EVE]] faction ships all have a 37.5% role bonus to scanning and the frigate and cruiser are also able to fit a Covert Ops cloak. They also get bonus to armor resists, energy turrets and drones and virus strength making them capable combat crafts and hackers. They have lower skill requirements than CovOps T2's, but they are insanely expensive compared to other T1 ships and considerably more expensive than T2 ships.

* {{sh|Metamorphosis}} Frigate. A special T1 frigate at around half the price of an {{sh|Astero}} but provides most of the scanning & Hacking bonuses of the Astero. Including Covert Ops Cloaking ability and +10 virus strength. And with the role bonuses, can easily fit an expanded probe launcher. It is the only [[Society of Conscious Thought]] ship with +10 virus strength bonus.
