"Jupiter-class" Pyramid-the least common, numbering just twelve.Large Pyramid-the second least common, numbering at fifty, these behemoths are fifteen thousand kilometers in size, yet almost seemingly massless."Heavy-class" Pyramid-the third most common, numbering around five hundred, anywhere between five to a hundred kilometers, and act as escorts.They possess fewer "weapons" but seem to bear the most pyramidic scales yet far. "Light-class" Pyramid-the next most common, numbering almost a thousand ships, two kilometers.Ordinary Pyramid-the most common, numbering over ten thousand ships, and the smallest, measuring nearly a thousand meters.Though no clear fleet-based roles have been observed, from catastrophic engagements with them the following hierarchy has been tentatively reconstructed. There is no apparent visible means of propulsion or power generation as no reactor core was ever discovered upon a pyramid prior to their invasion. Their weapons defy analysis, capable of wiping entire enemy fleets with but a single pulse of enigmatic energy. The pyramids possess a form of shielding that "freezes" oncoming projectiles by shifting them onto an alternate plane of reality into eternal stasis, and is always active. Light-blessed beings report a chilling sensation upon touch. Any apparent injury will leave a minor scarring of orange-red glowing material that quickly recovers to its original smoothness. This plating is made out of a black substance that absorbs light and suppresses electromagnetic radiation, earning their name well, and seemingly ripples and flows like water to the naked eye. They are uniform in shape yet widely vary by size-the largest measures over fifteen thousand kilometers evenly spread the smallest nearly a thousand meters.īeing regular tetrahedrons, in which all four faces are equilateral triangles, they contain no distinguishing features apart from banks of exotic weaponry running the length of their edges and converging at each point, and their armor plating. The main composition of the Fleet are its monolithic Pyramids.
You can help Destinypedia by expanding it. It was all for naught as the pyramidic fleet discovered the clarketech device left behind by the Traveler and used it to detonate the system's star, and the archailect succumbed to a Vex mind-eater virus.Īt least one major pyramid unit was left behind, heavily damaged, in orbit of Titania for inscrutable purposes. This war lasted for many centuries, the archailect using Displacement cannons to fire implosion bubbles to great effect against invading Hive forces and was capable of destroying minor pyramids. Millions of years ago the Black Fleet had waged war against an advanced civilization known as the Hierarchy of Hierarchies and an AI God of the fourth singularity. No clear consensus has ever been reached, nor are their goals as clear-cut as one of their servant species, the Hive. By then the Traveler has long departed, leaving some to speculate that it may be their agent, while those that have witnessed the Fleet's hostility towards it have argued the opposite. Few have survived their onslaughts, which are as mysterious as they are arbitrary-each species that the Traveler visits, they arrive shortly thereafter, be it a few centuries or long millennia.
They are the eternal nemesis of the Traveler and all servants of the Light, and actively pursue the Traveler wherever it may go.Īn ancient and highly advanced "race", these ships have been around for approximately as long as the Traveler. The Black Fleet is a fleet of tetrahedral megastructures responsible for the enshrouding of the Solar System. I shall prove my argument thus." - The Architect If you wish to dispute this, come at me with all of your armies and philosophies. So I have chosen to remake it in my image. Ostensibly reduce complexity to simplicity For the official version, see Black Fleet. This article is about the fanfic version of the Pyramids.
