==The Terminus==
 
 
 
----
 
 
 
The Battleship Terminus was commissioned by [[Cerberus]] on the 24 August 818 [[A.S]],featuring the latest and most deadliest tecnologies that [[The Order]] and [[Cerberus]] could craft.The task of the Terminus was that of the acting flagship of the Main Wing of Cerberus,commanded by Colonel [[Jack Aubrey]] the ship is the most deadly weapon that the enemies of [[Cerberus]] have ever tasted.
 
The ship itself is an experimental improvment of the [[Osiris]],featuring a high resistant ablative armor plating,and high-powered weapons.The ship was constructed on [[Evora Shipyard]] by a coordinated team of [[Order]] and [[Cerberus]] engineers.They replaced all the standard components of an Osiris with high-end equipment that granted the Terminus the possibility to act in Deep Space and far from the Order Homeworld.The ship is featuring a never seen tecnology aboard standard [[Order]] battleships,and that is an Artificial Intelligence,or '''O.D.S''',that allows the crew to control the rather large [[battleship]] with a reduced number of elements.The ship is used as the hammer of [[Cerberus]] against the [[Bounty Hunters Guild]],and has already scored several victories without reporting any kind of damage.
 
 
 
==The Team of Engineers==
 
 
 
----
 
The team of engineers that constructed the Terminus were mostly the remnants of those who stole the first [[Osiris]] prototype from the [[Liberty Navy]],they cooperated with some highly specialized [[Cerberus]] engineers that supervised the construction of the ship.Later on,some [[Rheinland Military]] engineers helped the project with a highly resistant and durable armor,that could sustain large ammounts of damage in battle.
 
 
 
The [[Cerberus]] lead engineer,[[Alexander Mahone]],invented '''O.D.S''',commonly known as the artificial intelligence of the ship.The ship itself managed to self repair it's own hull in case of damage,and to restore the necessary energy to the [[shields]].
 
 
 
[[Image:Index.jpg|left|thumb|230px| Alexander Mahone,the mastermind of this piece of art in the hands of [[Cerberus]]]]
 
 
 
==The Weapons==
 
 
 
----
 
 
 
The weapons with which the Terminus was equipped were constructed by a highly specialized team of [[Order]] engineers.The weapons featured a high energy cannon,an improved version of the [[TL-25 "Mortar" Antimatter Cannon]],and various secondary,long range,turrets with a highly improved capability in damage.
 
 
 
The weapons are directly controlled by a tracking unit that '''O.D.S''' uses,when an enemy ships approaches the Terminus,the commander can decide to attack or not by only pressing a command in the holographic display in the Bridge Area of the ship,and the Terminus will immediatly start to deliver a high quantity of deadly energy bursts.
 
 
 
The weapons have a heat countermeasure that avoids heating up the weapons to a failure point.Even this sistem is controlled by '''O.D.S''',and monitorized by two [[Cerberus]] elements in the Bridge Area of the ship.
 
 
 
The weapons of the Terminus are rare are very expensive,and several times,the [[Bounty Hunters Guild]] attempted to board the ship thinking that they could prevail over a small crew,but they were wrong.'''O.D.S''' immediatly locked down the chambers of the ship were the enemy was detected,and started an active depressurization to get rid of the unwanted guests.Moments later,the commander saw the bodies of the dead [[Bounty Hunters]] floating in space.
 
 
 
[[Image:Terminus CIC.jpg|right|thumb|330px| The Bridge section of the Terminus]]
 
 
 
==The Engine==
 
----
 
The engine was contructed from a stolen project of the [[Liberty Navy]],the engine of the Terminus is very energy reliable and can power up the cruise drivers in less than 10 seconds,reaching faster than light speed.
 
 
 
This important piece of equipment was codenamed,'''O.N.G.E''',or ORDER NEXT GENERATION ENGINE.The engine is capable of resisting even to some [[cruise disruptors]].
 
 
 
The ship wasn't equipped with any kind of [[thrusters]] in order to keep the energy demand as low as possible,eventually that energy was used to power the Terminus weapons,against it's enemies.The engine had initially a problem that didn't allowed the ship to reach a full speed.The problem was solved when an engineer in the Engine section found that an intake pipe that carried the [[H-Fuel]] to the Engine was locked by a valve.After the unlock of the respective valve,the ship acheived top speed.
 
 
 
The engine is very rare,and only another ship is known to sport such a high-end piece of equipment,the [[Cerberus]] Light Assault Carrier ''Nova''.
 
 
 
[[Image:Core.png|left|thumb|330px| The Engine section of the ship]]
 
 
 
==The Armor==
 
 
 
----
 
Little is known about the armor of the Terminus,the only thing that is certainly known is that the armor was constructed by some [[Rheinland Military]] engineers that had some connections with [[Cerberus]].
 
 
 
The remaining data from the construction of Terminus and it's armor was erased in order to keep the secret about it's armor.The ablative armor can compete with the best armor that a Rheinland Heavy Battleship can have.
 
 
 
 
 
==Recreation Area==
 
 
 
----
 
The morale of the crew was everything.The ship would be pleasant and could arrange to dispose several services,as a bar.The bar was constructed under the observatory.Even so alchool was strictly denied to keep the crew focues and battle ready.The only drinks that were allowed on the Terminus were Orange Juice,potable water and Sirius Cola.
 
 
 
The food served in the mess hall was of [[Kusari]] origin,mainly composed of fish,in order to have a daily basis of proteins.The [[Corsair]] delivered several packages of a food called pasta,with which the [[Corsair]] cook of the Terminus was able to make spaghetti.
 
 
 
Some studies showed that a long period in space can be rather dangerous for humans.So the engineers camed with an ideal idea.Towards the lower engine section,the crew could find a small gym were they could maintain an ideal body form.A medic was hired on [[Planet Toledo]] to check the crew every day.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
==Hangar==
 
----
 
The Terminus was constructed with a basical idea.The idea to launch a defensive wing of bombers to turn the favour for it's side against enemy capital ships.The small hangar in the bow of the ship could contain two [[Sekhmet]] bombers.
 
 
 
On the other hand,when not used,the hangar was used as a secondary storage section in order to store important military equipment.
 
 
 
 
 
==Communication Sistems==
 
----
 
The Terminus uses a rather advanced tecnology called PHOne.The communication with the other [[Cerberus]] vessels are granted by a highly-signal reflective array.Instead,the communication with the [[Order]] is assured by a secondary array that sends the transmission to several satellites across Sirius.
 
 
 
Recently it was discovered that a [[Lane Hacker]] managed to enter in contact with the Terminus,telling that the defensive protocols of the communication dish were obsolete.
 
 
 
[[Cerberus]] fixed that up immediatly with the help of the anonymouse [[Lane Hacker]] by the name of,Joe.The communication sistems were implemented into O.D.S sistems for protection against any foreign access that tried to enter into the ship's sistems.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
==The Artificial Intelligence Unit (O.D.S)==
 
 
 
----
 
[[Image:TXO.jpg|left|thumb|250px| The XO of the Terminus speaking with O.D.S]]
 
 
 
O.D.S, which stands for Operational Defense Sistems, is the AI of the Terminus and is represented by a holographic floating blue sphere at various terminals throughout the ship where she can provide a fully automated control of the ship.
 
 
 
EDI is a Quantum Blue Box type AI that functions as the electronic warfare defense for the Terminus. Because of the potential danger of a rogue AI, she has been given behavioral blocks and can't interface with the ship's systems.As an AI, O.D.S behavior goes far beyond that of typical VI interactions, with the ability to act independently and interact on a social level with the crew- not unlike any other sentient being. 
 
 
 
 
==Escort Units==
 
 
 
----
 
Being a very rare ship through the Omicrons,the Terminus has always an escort wing composed by two [[Cerberus]] Light Assault Carriers,that can deploy a full wing of fighters and bombers,and a [[Resheph]] class Recon Cruiser,used to scan a sistem before the Terminus will enter.

==Rumors==
 
 
 
----
 
Some rumors says that the Terminus was equipped with an improved version of a warp drive,like the one mounted on the first [[Osiris]].But this is highly unlikely because of the high energy requests that a warp drive could request.
 
 
 
But some [[Bounty Hunters]] mentioned to have seen the Terminus is [[Omega-56]] shortly after seeing her disappear under a red shift.
 
 
 
These of course are only rumors that weren't confirmed.
