OIS Orion Ascendant

The ship at the core of the Eternal Empire crisis, OIS Orion Ascendant and her commander Princess Hayant awoke to a new galaxy and refused to accept that the universe had changed. The Orion Union, the Federation, and presumably any other power occupying territory of the old Empire would have to go.

The Orion Ascendant was a 4.1mt Vranrir-A-class superdreadnought, with incredibly tough shields, a strong hull, and overwhelming firepower. In addition to this, it worked in concert with several Orion Drone Fighters and could manufacture more. Perhaps most frustrating, however, is that almost no Federation ships were capable of matching the warp speed of Orion Ascendant and her accompanying Dromorir-A-class dreadnoughts without risky procedures to increase their warp engine performance; only Excelsiors and the occasional Constellation-A could match Orion Ascendant's speed for short periods, and the USS Docana nearly wrecked herself attempting to stay ahead of the ship. In the end, a Federation fleet brought the Eternal Empire fleet of Orion Ascendant, OIS Hammer of the Slain, OIS Judgement of the Heavens, and their nine drones to battle, and the ship was destroyed by the concentrated fire of USS Kumari and CAS Riala, though not before Orion Ascendant destroyed Kumari in turn.
