The HMS Allegiance was the dragon transport that carried Temeraire to China from late 1805 early 1806. It was captained by Tom Riley, who asks for the post because William Laurence suggested it. It was meant to be captained by Cartwright, who served wtih Laurence on the HMS Goliath when it was bound for Halifax. However, when the trip to China became necessary, Cartwright was assigned to another ship. Riley was without a ship at the time because the HMS Reliant was dry-docked after suffering through a gale just after the Battle of Trafalgar.
It is a huge ship, over 400 feet long and oddly shaped because of the jutting dragon deck. It carried 150 guns.
