The Wraith Adult is an alien ship in Escape Velocity Nova.
"In the final stage of Wraith growth, the shiny carapace goes completely black, and the mature Wraith takes its place in the clan as a respected elder. The elder Wraith discuss many topics during their gathering trips into space and their time on their homeworld. They are truly a race of philosophers, though some of their conclusions are quite alien to humans. The adult Wraith will mate when they reach 200 years of age, and they live for up to 1000 years." ― Wraith Adult description
The Wraith Adult is a stealthy spacebourne critter. It has a strong graviton beam.

Gameplay Analysis[]
"The older a Wraith gets, the deadlier it becomes. This one can cloak before and after it attacks, but it's weapon is much more powerful (and more fun to watch) than it's younger siblings." ― EVula Survival Guide
Adult Wraith are extremely dangerous when threatened, so it’s best not to provoke them (i.e. by attacking them or their young). Their cloak makes them difficult to fight as they don’t decloak when hit, and missiles won’t track them. It is impossible to board a regular Wraith. However, during one branch of the Polaris missions, there is a specific Wraith named "A Chek". This Wraith can be boarded and captured.
