The Skull Fighter is the main antagonist fighter craft of the Pirates of Pestulon. Built with wings that extend out diagonally in combat mode, the Skull Fighter's forward profile has a striking simularity to that of a skull and crossbones. Roger Wilco is said to have destroyed a number of these in his confrontation with the Pirates in Space Quest 3. The last ones after the battle turned back and took their chances with Pug, rather than risk death. One of the three-man fighters was captured from the Pirates of Pestulon during their daring attempt to escape from the confines of Space Quest III.
