Archonian Empire First and Fifth fleet, Second battle group
Super Mothership Carrier Lady Altana, The Goddess of Dawn
In Rococo's story, the Galaxy is dominated by two Galactic Empire, the Aldyrian Empire, and the Archonian Empire. The higher houses of magic from each often revered as gods, but to the Archonians, they considered such an act from mundanes an obscene concept, with exception of "The Lady".
Affectionately known as "The Lady", Altana is a sentient starship that has been serving as the flagship of the Archonian Empire for the past 8000 years. Measured at 274 kilometers long, it is the largest battleship of its class to be able to perform starship maneuvers rather then being considered a mobile space station.Â
During the Titanomachy, Altana was one of the first sapient construct recruited by Time Mage Cassiopeia Galileo in order to aid Ravenwinged Vildur in her rebellion against the prophecies of Aisir, and later war against the Kronus. For the first three thousand years of Archonian Alliance's existence, Altana functioned as its mobile capital at the head of an enormous flotilla.Â
When Altana was inhabited, she supports a stable population of 1.2 million and 2 million flowing through population. Because of her large carrying capacity, she often participates in rescue and resettlement activities when great disaster struck. The name âAltanaâ has been associated with various significant meanings in the Archonian languages, and is worshiped by some segment of the Empire as a goddess.
Today, Altana is docked at Pier Quietus orbiting Planet Temporal Prime, the last site of her battle on a semi-permanent basis. She has remained there since the battle of the Temporal Prime for the past 5000 years. She keeps a permanent skeleton crew of 12000 and is escorted by the First and Fifth fleet of the Archonian Empire.
As an individual, Altana is considered one of the few âClass 10â sapient constructs, by which it means she produces processes or stores energy that is equivalent to that of a supernova on an ongoing basis. Along with the first and fifth fleet of the Archonian Empire, the second battle group consists of over 50% of Archonianâs offensive capability. So whenever Altana moves, everyone will take notice. Even having been dried docked for the past 5000 years, the space in which she resides is regularly surveillance by the other superpower of the milkyway, the Aldarian Empire and the Independent Systems Alliance.Â
In Archonian Empire, all healing magic invokes her name in the recitation of the spell, so there is a taboo in speaking her name out loud when its not part of a prayerful spell casting, she is often only referred to as "the lady".
