<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>The &#039;&#039;&#039;Celestial series&#039;&#039;&#039; was a series of [[OmniMech]]s produced by the [[Word of Blake]]. Developed in secret by Doctor [[Devon Cortland]] (aka [[Precentor]] Vapula) and unleashed without warning in [[3069]]&lt;ref&gt;&#039;&#039;Jihad Hot Spots: 3072&#039;&#039;, p. 135&lt;/ref&gt; during the Blakists&#039; [[Jihad]].<br /> <br /> They mate OmniPod technology with some of the most advanced armor, chassis and fusion engine technology that the [[Inner Sphere]] - or, specifically, the Word of Blake - could produce in the late [[3060]]s. Besides shared aesthetic elements, each &#039;Mech in the main series features the inclusion of a [[Small Cockpit]] and a fixed [[C3i Computer]]. As denoted by the use of a small cockpit, the Celestials were primarily intended to be used by the Blakists&#039; cybernetically enhanced [[Manei Domini]] shock troops, who field the lion&#039;s share of the &#039;Mechs.<br /> <br /> The Celestials are:<br /> * The 30 ton &#039;&#039;[[Malak]]&#039;&#039;<br /> * The 45 ton &#039;&#039;[[Preta]]&#039;&#039;<br /> * The 60 ton &#039;&#039;[[Grigori]]&#039;&#039;<br /> * The 70 ton &#039;&#039;[[Deva]]&#039;&#039;<br /> * The 85 ton &#039;&#039;[[Seraph]]&#039;&#039;<br /> * the 100 ton &#039;&#039;[[Archangel]]&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> In the years after the Jihad, Word of Blake remnants on the [[The Five|hidden world]] of [[Obeedah]] developed an additional design reminiscent of the original Celestials: the 15 ton &#039;&#039;[[Cherub]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;ref name=GoOp55&gt;&#039;&#039;Ghosts of Obeedah&#039;&#039;, p. 55: &quot;New Manei Domini Units&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == Variant Naming Conventions ==<br /> Rather than the standard variant naming scheme used by the Inner Sphere armies and Clans, the Word of Blake used their own terms to indicate Celestial variants. These terms were:<br /> ;&#039;&#039;Invictus&#039;&#039; :Primary Configuration<br /> ;&#039;&#039;Dominus&#039;&#039; :Alternate Configuration A<br /> ;&#039;&#039;Infernus&#039;&#039; :Alternate Configuration B<br /> ;&#039;&#039;Comminus&#039;&#039; :Alternate Configuration C<br /> ;&#039;&#039;Luminos&#039;&#039; :Alternate Configuration D<br /> ;&#039;&#039;Eminus&#039;&#039; :Alternate Configuration E<br /> ;&#039;&#039;Caelestis&#039;&#039; :Alternate Configuration S - These variants often used captured [[Clan]] or [[Experimental Technology|experimental]] equipment.&lt;ref&gt;&#039;&#039;Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents&#039;&#039;, p. 162&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> ;&#039;&#039;Exanimus&#039;&#039; :Alternate Configuration U - These variants carried equipment appropriate for underwater or other unusual environments like space operations.<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> &lt;references/&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Bibliography==<br /> * &#039;&#039;[[Ghosts of Obeedah]]&#039;&#039;<br /> * &#039;&#039;[[Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents]]&#039;&#039;<br /> * &#039;&#039;[[Record Sheets: 3075 Unabridged]]&#039;&#039;<br /> * &#039;&#039;[[Technical Readout: 3075]]&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Technology]]<br /> [[Category:&#039;Mech classifications]]</div>
