OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
- Intent: To create an updated hull system.
- Image Source: N/A
- Canon Link: N/A
- Permissions: N/A
- Primary Source: Durasilk Thermafoam, Crystaplast, Crystalamnium
- Manufacturer: Primo Victorian Enterprises
- Affiliation: Imperial Commonwealth of Dosuun
- Market Status: Closed-Market
- Model: CDS-HCHS-X1
- Modularity: Yes (scalable by thickness, density, and layer count depending on ship class)
- Production: Minor
- Material:
- Outer Armor Layers:
- Agrinium-infused radiation buffer
- Duraplast & Molytex thermal shell
- Trimantium outer grid
- Impervium edge reinforcement
- Adaptive Core Layers:
- Crystaplast reactive microfilaments
- Crystalamnium matrix for shock absorption
- Synthek Crystal vein channeling for energy redirection
- Reinforced quantum fiber weave frame
- Suspension & Insulative Layers:
- Hydro-viscous gravitic compound
- Phase-tuned gel binders and EM-resistant foam beads
- Durasilk fiber particle reinforcement
- Dallorian alloy subframe for internal heat control
- Outer Armor Layers:
- Multilayer Composite Architecture: Highly adaptive system of physical, energy, and thermal protection layers.
- Radiation-Absorbing Skin: Agrinium and Crystalamnium reduce exposure to radiation and directed energy.
- Thermal Shedding Shell: Duraplast/Molytex layers and Dallorian alloy dissipate heat rapidly during atmospheric entry or energy barrage.
- Kinetic Dampening Core: Suspension layer mimics Gravmire’s energy-slowing behavior, redirecting force away from hull breaches.
- Reactive Impact Skin: Crystaplast microfilaments harden or flex on impact to reduce penetration.
- Quantum Fiber Skeleton: Lattice-anchored base provides superior tension strength while keeping total weight manageable.
- Synthek Crystal Vein Network: Allows redistribution of absorbed energy through the plating to power capacitors or shield modules.
- Balanced All-Around Defense: Provides dependable resistance to both kinetic and energy attacks, ideal for multipurpose combat vessels.
- Smart Hull Response: Reacts to different damage types—heat, radiation, plasma, or slugs—differently, mitigating each based on impact conditions.
- Thermal & Radiation Control: Maintains crew survivability and system integrity under sustained exposure to heat, plasma, or reactor leakage.
- Pulse Vulnerability: The layered crystal and gel-based structure is less effective against high-frequency, pulse-based munitions. (e.g., rapid detonating flechette shells, plasma scatter shots, or pulse disruptors)
- Maintenance Intensive: Its complex, layered construction demands skilled crews and downtime to replace or rebind layers after battle.
Named for the fusion of Hekate, goddess of protection and thresholds, and Herakles, ancient Dosuunian deities, the embodiment of strength and endurance, the Hekakles Composite Hull System represents the modern standard of Commonwealth starship armor.
Constructed from multiple adaptive layers—each chosen for specific environmental and damage-type resistances—the system replaces brute-force monoplates with a responsive armor architecture. Whether it’s shrugging off shrapnel from a disruptor torpedo, diffusing a laser barrage, or surviving a glancing hit from a hypervelocity round, Hekakles redirects, slows, or absorbs the incoming threat intelligently.
The inclusion of Agrinium and Dallorian Alloy ensures high resistance to both radiation and thermal build-up. Synthek Crystal veins interwoven into the crystalamnium matrix act as reactive energy redistributors—piping absorbed damage into auxiliary systems like capacitor reservoirs, enhancing defensive synergy. A gel suspension, reworked for mass viability, provides shock dispersion across a lightweight but solid quantum fiber frame.
From agile Kelly-class patrol boats to Commonwealth destroyers, the Hekakles hull system allows full-spectrum combat deployment with reduced risk to crew and core systems—providing modern vessels with armor worthy of both namesakes.
