The Zephyr is a special release ship that was gifted to every active capsuleer when wormholes were implemented, one ship each. The Zephyr at first seems like a standard shuttle, albeit one with a unique design. However, it's set apart from other ships in that Sleeper drones do not attack a Zephyr on sight. The cause for this is unknown, and CCP has not seen it fit to answer inquiries toward this unique trait. The Zephyr also has an order of magnitude lower mass than any other ship, making it very unlikely to collapse wormholes it uses. | The Zephyr is a special release ship that was gifted to every active capsuleer when wormholes were implemented, one ship each.
