How to Have Heroes (Sort of)

[AJC]

I have been thinking about this and I was thinking that maybe something similar to artifacts could be done. Heros that are found stranded- or met exploring ruins. Instead of an ancient tech - you find a hero crew, or maybe a species at a ruin that allows for combat and propulsion bonuses... It would have to be created as a component, but make it a small one, 1kt. 1 per ship limitation. Maybe even perhaps similar to a crew qtr component - to simulate the special environment the creatures need on the ships in your empire...
