- — Emperor Calus
The Leviathan is a massive Cabal spacecraft used for planetary consumption, and is the flagship and vehicle of exile for Emperor Calus.[1][2][3][4] It is the site of the Leviathan Raid.
Overview
The Leviathan is a gigantic spaceship, far surpassing the Dreadnaught and The Almighty, used by the Cabal to grind and devour planets. When it locks on to a desired object, Cabal soldiers are then sent to gather data on its geology to find out how to grind it into food for the ship, suggesting that it is also a living creature. There also a palace on the head of the ship where Emperor Calus resides.

Unlike previous raid locations, areas within The Leviathan are not given unique names as they load in. However, as with locations within a Crucible map, certain rooms and areas have a unique name that is displayed beneath the player radar.

Trivia
- The name of this ship is a reference to a creature in The Bible called the Leviathan, which is a creature of enormous size.
- One idea for the Leviathan's origin, according to artist Dorje Bellbrook, was that the ship was inspired by creatures native to Calus' homeworld resembling large "land whales" that would travel along the ground and swallow anything caught in their path.[5] It is unknown, however, whether this is canon information or not.
