| The '''Typhon Imperator''' is a massive paracausal vessel used by [[Emperor Calus]] after becoming a [[Disciples of the Witness|Disciple]] of [[the Witness]] for the invasion of [[Earth]] and later [[Neptune]].
| |
|
| |
| ==History==
| |
| Following his anointment as the latest Disciple of the Witness, Calus was given the Typhon Imperator as his personal flagship and base of operations for his [[Shadow Legion]]. It was first shown emerging from hiding within the shadow of [[Jupiter]] alongside [[Essence]], the Witness's [[Pyramid]] flagship, and the rest of the [[Black Fleet]].
| |
|
| |
|
| During the opening events of ''Lightfall'', the Typhon Imperator was initially seen cruising amongst the [[Black Fleet]] during the opening battle above the Earth, and lead a whole armada of [[Cabal Warship]]s carrying Shadow Legion troops. It would disembark from the rest of the Pyramid fleet towards [[Neptune]] with the intent of securing a paracausal artifact known as [[the Veil]]; hidden away at the secret [[Human]] city of [[Neomuna]]. On Calus' orders, the massive ship descended downwards through the planet's atmosphere and demolished a whole district of reclaimed land within the city as its landing, looming over the city's skyline from [[Ahimsa Park]].

| ==Overview== | | ==Overview== |
| The design of the ''Typhon Imperator'' incorporates both aspects of the [[Pyramid]]s' haunting, geometric architecture and Calus's extravagant, gaudy tastes. Its profile is a flattened arrow-like shape, with a wide front and tapered wedge-shaped stern. There are four sections between the main body and the base of the tail wedge that are "cut out" from the broader front half of the ship's body. At the very front of the vessel's bow is what appears to be a Sphinx-like statue or figurehead of Emperor Calus in his new form as a Disciple. Directly above and behind the Calus figurehead is a flat plateau-like structure that is trapezoid-shaped when viewed from the front, possibly the ship's bridge. Behind the plateau are at least six rectangular towers. The whole hull is peppered with the same orange lights as the Pyramids.
| | Since his encounter and eventual anointment as the latest member of the [[Disciples of the Witness]], Calus was given his own vessel to serve as The Witness' herald for a Second Collapse within the Sol System; the Typhon Imperator, a massive pyramid-based craft in place of his derelict Leviathan. The Typhon Imperator would also serve as the flagship and main base of operations for Calus's [[Shadow Legion]]. |
| | |
| According to survey analyses ran by Neomuni city archivist [[Quinn Laghari]], Calus's ship have hijacked many of the city's utility systems and even polluted the surrounding environment with an unknown contaminant its been dumping.
| |
| | |
| Though many of the main aspects of the ''Typhon Imperator'''s interior are similar to what was seen within Rhulk's [[Sunken Pyramid]], Calus's characteristic love of opulence has led to golden statues of himself being found along with other aspects of Cabal memorabilia being located throughout the vessel, even chests overflowing with treasures being littered about in some hallways and chambers. As expected, likely at the center of the vessel lies a chamber with a golden throne for the emperor.

| Due to the ship's massive size and length, gravity lifts are used to speed personnel and supplies over large chasms and distances.

Most notably, at the very front of the vessel lies what could be interpreted as a statue of Emperor Calus in his new form as a Disciple. As expected, likely at the center of the vessel lies a golden throne for the emperor. |

| Since the ''Typhon'' also serves as the Shadow Legion's main fortress, sections of it are filled with warships and [[Goliath Tank]]s, enough to launch a massive invasion. In addition, a chamber of the vessel was filled with pods of Cabal, likely Shadow Legion clones that were used in Calus's own experiments with the [[Darkness]] and Pyramid technology. Further, a gladiator ring was made for Calus's forces to train themselves and serve as entertainment for their emperor. | | Since the Typhon serves as the Shadow Legion's main fortress, sections of it are filled with warships and goliath tanks, enough to launch a massive invasion.
