• Intent: To submit the "Titan Core," a massive energy storage and discharge system designed for the EOS-1 "Aegis of Endor" orbital station, enabling multiple unique defensive or offensive energy deployment modes.
• Image Source: N/A
• Canon Link: N/A
• Permissions: N/A
• Primary Source: Inspired by Star Wars Legends superweapon concepts such as the World Devastator reactors, superlasers, and Mon Calamari shield technology.

PRODUCTION INFORMATION

• Manufacturer: Joint Engineering Division, Galactic Alliance Defense Force
• Affiliation: Galactic Alliance
• Market Status: Closed-Market
• Model: Titan Core Mark I
• Modularity: No
• Production: Unique
• Material: Deep-crystal lattice capacitors, durasteel housing, superconductive hypercoil arrays, fusion initiator cores, redundant radiation baffles, photonic couplers

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Stores massive energy reserves from fusion and solar collectors
• Can be rapidly charged via ground-based high-intensity laser arrays
• Supports one of three mutually exclusive energy outputs: - Hemisphere Shield Projection (defensive planetary coverage) - Conical Beam Shield (tactical ground shielding) - Titan Lance (anti-capital ship energy weapon)
• Controlled via Trident Protocol Control Array (separate submission pending)
• Integrated fail-safes to prevent simultaneous discharge modes
• Massive cooldown and recharge period following discharge

STRENGTHS

• Versatile: Enables the station to project immense energy either defensively (as a shield) or offensively (as a single lance weapon), based on situational need.
• Overwhelming Output: Each mode of the Titan Core can decisively alter a battle, whether intercepting orbital bombardments or obliterating a capital ship.
• Remote Recharge: Can be rapidly recharged via surface-based emitters to stay functional across extended engagements.

WEAKNESSES

• Mutually Exclusive: Only one function can be used at a time; activating any mode locks out the others until the system is fully recharged.
• Cooldown Vulnerability: Following a full discharge, the Titan Core becomes inert for a significant period, leaving EOS-1 reliant on conventional defenses.
• Surface Dependency: Rapid recharge requires ground-based laser installations; if destroyed or blocked, recharge is extremely slow.
• Telegraphed Discharge: The Titan Lance and shield dome both emit charge-up signatures visible to sensors, making them possible to predict and counter.

DESCRIPTION The Titan Core is a singular energy system designed for the EOS-1 orbital station as part of the Galactic Alliance’s emergency defense initiative over Endor. Built around deep-crystal capacitors, solar harmonics, and fusion convergence tech, it functions as both a supercapacitor and directed energy deployment mechanism.

The core differentiates itself by enabling three major functions, each capable of shifting battlefield dynamics: (1) a hemisphere-scale energy shield capable of shielding half of Endor’s surface from orbital fire, (2) a focused conical beam that can protect smaller zones for longer durations, or (3) a single discharge Titan Lance capable of piercing or vaporizing large enemy vessels.

The system is governed by the Trident Protocol—a failsafe control matrix that prevents simultaneous use and ensures the core can only activate one mode at a time. Once discharged, the core enters a power-cycling phase unless externally recharged via planetary laser uplinks.

Despite its power, the Titan Core is not a superweapon in the traditional sense. It is not mobile, not rapid-firing, and not immune to sabotage or circumvention. However, its presence fundamentally redefines Endor’s orbit as a no-go zone for unprepared invaders—a deterrent, a symbol, and a shield for the vulnerable moon below.

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

• Intent: To submit the "Trident Protocol Control Array," a hard-coded modular targeting and command system that governs the use of the Titan Core aboard EOS-1, regulating its exclusive energy discharge options.
• Image Source: N/A
• Canon Link: N/A
• Permissions: N/A
• Primary Source: Inspired by targeting computers and fire control systems from Star Wars lore, such as the Death Star fire-control system, superlaser targeting arrays, and Alliance battlefield shield modulators.

PRODUCTION INFORMATION

• Manufacturer: Joint Engineering Division, Galactic Alliance Defense Force
• Affiliation: Galactic Alliance
• Market Status: Closed-Market
• Model: TRD-A01 "Trident Protocol Control Array"
• Modularity: No
• Production: Unique
• Material: Durasteel housing, quantum processors, ceramite-cased logic cores, decryption-safe firmware banks, multilayered reinforced cabling, surge-proof power interfaces

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Hard-coded logic framework governing energy discharge operations of the Titan Core
• Ensures only one of three possible energy outputs can be active per charge cycle
• Heavily encrypted decision pathway prevents remote tampering or mode-stacking
• Prioritization tiers allow commanders to pre-assign emergency defaults in case of signal loss
• Redundant failsafe protocols to avoid accidental multi-discharge meltdown events
• Integrated interface with EOS-1’s primary tactical command systems and bridge displays

STRENGTHS

• Failsafe Logic: Prevents simultaneous activation of incompatible energy outputs from the Titan Core, avoiding catastrophic system overload.
• Tactical Flexibility: Allows commanders to dynamically choose whether to use orbital shields or the Titan Lance depending on the battlefield state.
• Encryption Hardened: Extremely difficult to hack, override, or compromise—even internally.

WEAKNESSES

• Single-Function Lockout: Once a discharge mode is activated, no other mode can be accessed until a full recharge cycle is completed.
• Signal Delay: Intentional safety delays are built into the switch-order, meaning a delay between deactivation and reinitialization of the next protocol.
• Command Vulnerability: If the control array itself is physically damaged or disabled, Titan Core operations default to full lockdown.

DESCRIPTION The Trident Protocol Control Array is the primary command, targeting, and safety interface for the Titan Core aboard the EOS-1 "Aegis of Endor" orbital defense station. Named for its three-pronged logic structure, the Trident Protocol ensures that the station’s powerful energy system can only be used in one of three mutually exclusive configurations: the Hemispheric Defense Shield, the Conical Beam Shield, or the Titan Lance.

Rather than rely on organic decision-making in the heat of battle, the Trident Array enforces strict selection logic and failsafe interlocks at the hardware level. This eliminates the possibility of dual activation or destructive feedback from overlapping shield and weapon functions. Prioritization presets can be assigned by GA command staff, allowing the station to respond even in the event of bridge blackout or communications loss.

Built with quantum-layered encryption, backup logic cores, and tamper-proof firmware, the system is considered among the most secure defense logic suites ever produced by the Alliance. That said, it comes with steep strategic tradeoffs: once a function is activated, the other two options become fully disabled until the Titan Core is recharged and the lockout expires.

EOS-1’s command crew refers to the system as both a "shield and scalpel"—capable of cutting deep into enemy fleets or shielding the moon below, but never both at once. In war, timing is everything—and the Trident Protocol ensures that power is always spent with purpose.

DESCRIPTION The EOS-1 "Aegis of Endor" represents the Galactic Alliance's most advanced and singularly focused orbital defense installation. Positioned in high orbit over the Forest Moon of Endor, it is designed not just to resist enemy fleets, but to protect the surface and project dominance across the system. Its centerpiece—the Titan Core Capacitor System—enables the station to either raise massive shields or fire a powerful energy lance, but never both at once. This logic is managed by the Trident Protocol Control Array, which enforces mutually exclusive energy use for tactical balance and safety.

EOS-1 boasts its own hangars, sensor and jamming nodes, and defensive droid complements, but does not travel and cannot enter hyperspace. Its function is clear: defend Endor at all costs.

Used in support of the Endor Codex event and frontline war narrative, EOS-1 offers both roleplay potential and defensive scale appropriate for galactic conflict without becoming a superweapon. Its limitations ensure it plays a defensive role, not an offensive juggernaut.

Crewed by over 8,000 personnel including technicians, marines, sensor officers, and engineers, the station also houses dignitaries and command staff. Its upper spire includes the Enviro-Bubble Terrace—a ceremonial viewport offering a breathtaking view of the stars and the world beneath.

EOS-1 is not the beginning of the end—it is the promise that Endor will never fall again.
