OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Intent
: Surveillance-industrial complex. Sub a big station that fits Enyo.
Image Source: Here.
Canon Link: N/A.
Permissions: Blanket permission for subs made by Laira Darkhold's writer here and here. Blanket permission for Kal's stuff here.
Primary Source: N/A.

PRODUCTION INFORMATION
Manufacturer
: Archangel Research and Design.
Affiliation: Archangel Research and Design.
Market Status: Closed-Market
Model: Long Range Observation Station - LROS
Production: Unique
Material: Durasteel, Duramentium, Hiridiu Crystals, Tunqstoid, Isotope-5, Agrinium, electronic and station components.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Classification
: Galactic Surveillance Station.
Length: 40,000 metres
Width: 8,000 metres
Height: 12,000 meters.
Armament: None
Defenses: Extreme.
  • Eidolon
  • Ablative Armour
  • ECM Countermeasures
  • Point defence laser turrets
  • Cap Drain & De-Ionizer Modules
  • Warhead Countermeasures
Hangar Space: The Omniscope station is not able to hold starfighter or other squadrons of armed vessels, but has numerous docking berths and the like to hold ships of varying size. It is a surveillance and survey station not a mobile factory or shipyard, so it does not have manufacturing facilities for vehicles, starships etc.
Maneuverability Rating: Low
Speed Rating: Low
Hyperdrive: 0.25 (Primary). 10.0 (Backup).

STANDARD FEATURES
Equipped with all the features and facilities one would expect from a vessel of its size and purpose, including advanced sensors and communications systems. Heavily encrypted access to standard communications channels - HoloNet+ (DarkNet, MedNet, KPLink, Crypt Net 2.0 and so on.)

ADVANCED SYSTEMS
STRENGTHS
  • Big Sister is watching you. Designed for mass surveillance and equipped with massive communications and scanning abilities. The station can gather, receive, collate and analyse yottabytes of data. Use of Ghostwave and various other devices ensures secure communications safe from tampering. Can receive data from listening outposts, spy satellites, drones etc. to boost its own surveillance and surveying capabilities. Myriad sensors and equipment enable it to function as the central hub for monitoring communication and starship traffic on an enormous scale. Perfect for signals intelligence and information warfare, including spreading disinformation.
  • Has a very high degree of automation, and hosts a powerful artificial intelligence and precognitive, disembodied brains specialising in Force-based farsight.
  • Heavily defended.
  • Unusually fast hyperdrive.
WEAKNESSES
  • The Omniscope Survey Station is huge and slow. Like a brick. A large brick.
  • It is also as agile as a brick.
  • No offensive weapons. Requires protection, escorts etc.
  • The hyperdrive has a long cooldown period between jumps. This can become a problem.
DESCRIPTION

Knowledge is power. Enyo believes this strongly. And she has no respect for anyone's privacy. The Omniscope Survey Station is the hub of her surveillance network. Myriad sensors and equipment enable it to function as a central hub to monitor communications and starship traffic on an enormous scale. Aside from its own incredible monitoring abilities, it can also receive and collate information from numerous sources such as spy satellites, surveillance drones, probe droids, listening posts and so on. The information is sifted, catalalogued and analysed. It relies heavily on Ghostwave and other devices to prevent its communications from being tampered with or intercepted.

Its massive server farms make it perfect for information warfare, disinformation and deep fakes. State of the art, heavily encrypted hyperspace transceivers, highly advanced slicing countermeasures, Ghostwave Communicators, Crystal Gravfield Traps and military grade shielding are just some of the features that make it a tough nut to crack, both for hostile entities that want to bring its secrets to light or physically assault it.

The Omniscope hosts the Combined Integrated Artificial Construct, a powerful artificial intelligence construct that functions by combining several NeuroDigitalMatrices into a network and hooking them up to a super computer. This significantly augments processing power, critical thinking skills and self-learning capabilities. The machine is connected to a Shard. CIAC can accumulate, collate and analyse a staggering amount of data at a rapid pace.

To this end it can make use of Archangel's surveillance network. Moreover, it can learn from experience, using the data it draws upon to become more sophisticated. In addition, subservient Neuroscryers can be found in the heart of the station. Essentially disembodied brains in a jar, they can scry across distances and predict future events via Force-based precognition. This makes them an apt choice for this kind of large-scale, uninspired observation.

Inside the Omniscope, one finds data centres kilometres long, maintained by an army of tech drones. Then, endless banks of processors to analyse, catalogue and highlight the obtained information. Tech drones, analysis droids and HRDs are at work around the clock. There are big maintenance and storage areas for drones, guards and a few very small visitor locations. As the crew are droids, certain things have been removed or significantly scaled down for more effective use of the station's vast space. The station does have crew quarters, a mess hall, infirmary and other necessities for organics for when Enyo's posse might come to visit, but these areas are small since they are not expected to see widespread use or accommodate a large number of people. Enyo does not like wasting space on organic 'frivolities', but if there is one thing the Omniscope does not lack, it is space.

The Omniscope features no processing device or similar equipment to repurpose flesh and blood beings into superior machines. Its shadowy master has a myriad of mobile and stationary factories to fulfil that purpose. This place is for intelligence gathering, analysis and information warfare, not recycling or upgrading organic specimen. It does, however, benefit from innovations made to the process of taking an organic and rendering them down into machine form or digitalising their mind.

One such innovation is the aforementioned CIAC, the other is the Unity Processing Matrix, which fuses several such spirits into a single processor for added power and essentially acts as an advanced droid brain. The Omniscope is very well-guarded. Internal security measures include decompression traps, pop-up turrets, biometric security, ray shield traps, heavy Tunqstoid blast doors, coma gas dispensers and a large on-board garrison.

When originally conceiving the plans it was going to be 400x80x120km due to adding a zero to the figures by mistake, but Enyo stepped in and corrected it. Some of her siblings and many other members of the posse were upset, they wanted a 400km long station it would take ages to cross. Enyo let out a little growl and told them to go walk for 400km and see if they were still interested after that.
