Description


Only a few Blackwind Annihilators exist, and their origins are lost in the Gap. These mighty ultranoughts were already in orbit around Eox, fully armed and operational, when the first bone sages realized they had no memories of their previous centuries. The Cruel Perdition participated in the Magefire Assault; the damage it sustained from Absalom Station's defenders took several decades to repair, but it is now back online. Heart's Decay was lost during one of the major early battles in the war between the Pact Worlds and the Veskarium. Shortly after Eox signed the Absalom Pact, the then-captain of the Empire of Bones mutinied against his admiral, taking the vessel and most of its support ships to form the rebellious Corpse Fleet. In the years since then, Blackwind Engineering began construction on a new Annihilator, but has since left the vessel unfinished in its shipyards due to a lack of potential buyers.
A Blackwind Annihilator is often used as a flagship for its navy and is always assigned at least a small flotilla of other capital ships and smaller support craft. The ultranought is rarely risked in battles with large enemy armadas, instead being used as a blunt instrument to crush smaller fleets. When not employed as a weapon, it is often kept in reserve to protect major outposts and shipyards or to act as a mobile headquarters for task forces undertaking special missions.
