STRENGTHS
- Death Incarnate: In addition to sporting The Helios Cannon the Hyperion maintains a massive arsenal of weaponry turning this ship into a weapon of mass destruction in space.
- Iron Bulwark: Along with its advanced armament the Hyperion sports an extremely strong reinforced hull and frame making it into an extremely tough, and resilient ship to bring down.
- Fit for an Empire: In addition to the more standard systems that allow the ship itself to function, the Hyperion has also been installed with several more specialized systems and areas. From dedicated production and detention areas to advanced medical bays and even crew-to-ship integration, the ship is uniquely suited to serve as a mobile base of operations in a variety of ways.
- Echoes of the Dark Side: Several ancient parts of the ship were installed and produced on Mord'Rethar a planet that hosts a Dark Side Nexus, saturating the vessel in the Dark Side. In the most deepest recesses the ship it maintains a cold and dreadful atmosphere, one that hints at a dark past with an even darker future ahead of it.
- Slow Recharge Rate: The Helios Cannon takes a good deal of time to recharge as Containment Field and the Thermal Oscillator need to recuperate for it to fire again this can take anywhere from one to six minutes. This depends on the amount of damage the ship has taken and the amount of stellar energy already used.
- A Space Turtle: One thing this ship is not is fast. The Hyperion is immensely slow in combat and can easily be outmaneuvered on the field. A preferred tactic of the Hyperion is to get close to the enemy force to unleash its full arsenal.
- Rear Blind Spot: A weakness in its design much like all star destroyers is that the Hyperion suffers from a lack of firepower on its stern. This means that the ship cannot fire on any ships that enter its rear blind spot.
- Size: The Hyperion is quit large making it an extremely easy target.
- Electrifying: Due to the number of electronics running through the cannon, a sufficiently powerful emp/ion weapon will render it inert, and depending on when in the firing process it is hit, this may also cause the stellar energy stored to expand. Thus incinerating it and the entire ship.
- Limited: Due to the ship being built around the Helios Cannon it can only fire where the ship is facing.
- containment field: If the containment field is damaged or breeched in anyway the collected stellar energy will expand incinerating the cannon and the entire ship.
DESCRIPTION
The Hyperion-Class Star Destroyer was first conceptualized during the very early days of Emperor Naga Sadows reign as one of many projects to give the Old Sith Empire an edge against their foes. But this desire nearly brought financial ruin to the Empire and the program never officially got out of the planning stages. It wasn't until the reign of Emperor Vitiate and the beginning of The Great Galactic War that it truly began to take shape, one of two designs alongside the Prometheus-class that were in early production stages.
But the war took a terrible turn.
When Black hand station fell to the Republic the frame of the Hyperion had been in production and was quickly moved deep into the unknown regions. The project was officially given to The Emperor's Hand. Carefully they directed a massive strip mining program through worlds in the Unknown Regions so far out they went uncatalogued on any galaxy map, the Hyperion would be a true testament to the Emperor's power empire or not, it would see the light of day.
But it wasn't until the death of the Emperor's Voice that construction truly took off. The Hand recruited the Dark Councilor and Director of Intelligence; they used his position and power to relocate great swaths of resources towards the project, keeping it out in deep space where it was safe and secure in its anonymity.
But the final stages of production came after the death of Darth baras and the rise of a new Emperor's Wrath. It was brought back from deep space to the not yet dead world of Mord'Rethar.
As years passed new developments were made in beam weaponry and this allowed the Hand to make use of a new super-heavy beam cannon system called the Helios Cannon that was powered by massive stellar collectors, thermal oscillators and a containment field within the belly of the great beast. The energy was siphoned from a nearby Sun and then came straight down through the middle of the ship and to an axial mount that granted it greater range. After all these years the Hyperion was finally finished ready to be set loose on the galaxy.
The Hyperion went on to faithfully serve as the flagship of the Emperor's Wrath in many engagements, the most infamous was over Rishi during Revans return. Where it fired the Helios cannon to slice through and completely decimate the Revanite dreadnought, Revan's Glory.
It was during the Battle of Yavin 4 that the Hyperion achieved major success yet again when under the orders of the Wrath, it used the Helios Cannon to obliterate a large portion of the Revanite fleet by Destroying a Harrower-class dreadnought carrying highly volatile materials causing it to explode, reducing a sizable portion of the Revanite fleet into clumps of molten iron. The threat of further devastation forced the Revanites to surrender completely and the Republic to withdraw. The Hyperion was a nigh unstoppable force, or so it was thought. It was during the Battle of Ziost that they soon learned different when the ship suffered a critical blowout that completely engulfed the Helios Cannon and the vast majority of the ship's prow.
While the Hyperion made it out of Ziost with minor significant damage, it jumped into hyperspace where it was docked at a completely automated secret space station. A thorough repair and investigation effort was underway for many months to determine what went wrong, the vulnerabilities that were exploited. The Hyperion underwent a top to bottom investigation and assessment, it was completely retrofitted including the addition of a new cannon.
Once construction was complete, the Hyperion was again ready to serve. But it was at this point that the Eternal Empire of Zakuul attacked the Galaxy causing the Station to lose all contact with the greater galaxy causing it and the Hyperion to become lost to time.
Until the year 880 ABY when Darth Patiens was overseeing a salvage operation that was being conducted by his Company the K2 Space Salvage and Repair Fleet. Where they came across the derelict Space station and The Hyperion. After months of hard work Darth Patiens and his company where able to completely retrofit the Hyperion with state-of-the-art tech though the derelict Space station was nowhere near up and running but that is an ongoing project.
