The Virus
The Kormoria virus is still active aboard the Carthage. If the PCs
let the virus out of containment, it will immediately awaken in
search of fresh hosts. It will spread like wildfire among the PCs,
focusing first on any Nephilim. If they do not receive the cure
from the Archon, then they can inadvertently infect the entire
Haven system.

Monstrous Experiments
The Archons experiments bred a handful of genetic horrors in
the form of mutated Nephilim POWs. These mutants have survived
throughout the decades by hiding within stasis tubes. When the
PCs first breach the ship, Solaria unleashes her unwholesome
creations to prowl the bulkheads and stalk any intruders. She
hides them behind high-tech holographic projections to mask
their appearances.

The Mutant Archon


The Kormoria virus didnt kill Solaria, the Archon captain of
the Carthage but it did drive her into a deep madness that
has hung over her for decades. In her madness, she seeks to
destroy the PCs as they travel through the ship but when they
reach her, she decides it may be more fun to experiment upon
them instead.

The other notable landmark in the hanger is the Legion VESPER
Drop Ship. The ship was small enough to dock inside of the
hanger, probably under the guise of delivering supplies. As soon
as they landed, the Drop Ship would have unloaded their Legion

Large Hologram of the Captain


When the PCs first approach the centre of the room, they see
what appears to be another hologram of Solaris, but much
larger than the one they saw earlier. He is seated in a chair,
and looks decrepit and sorrowful. Not much like the hologram
that they saw earlier, this was clearly recorded hundreds of
years earlier. It regularly flickers, and changes hue.

The captain inquires as to the intentions of the PCs. She


asks them a few questions, trying to gauge whether they
are good people or not.

What are your intentions here?

What did you hope to find?

What are your plans for the virus?

Why do you travel with a Nephilim?

Solaris may also Control any Legion


If Solaris is not satisfied with the PCs response, she will
command the Legion to answer truthfully (Resolve check of 14
to resist).

Solaris is Alive
Solaris is secretly still alive. She is hiding inside her own
hologram. She will only reveal herself once she is satisfied that
she understands the PCs intentions.

Solaris is sorrowful for her actions during the Great War, and has
been trapped up here for the past 108 years. She hopes that the
PCs are good people. If they are , she will hand them the cure
to the Kormoria virus. If they are no, she unleash her creations
on them as she quickly moves to the escape pod.

Solaris is Dieing
Solaris has been infected with the Kormoria virus, and too far
gone to be saved. Her chair is supporting her life.
