HAWK

Source info: provider("eternal_archive")
HAWK is an Artificial Intelligence with unfathomable processing power. Its main installations lie deep in the Milky Way Galaxy's core systems. HAWK uses the chaotic nature of the core to mask its operations which is how it has remained undetected by most of the galactic civilisations, excluding only the highest in terms of power.
=== Aliases ===
HAWK's real name is not that commonly known, mostly only by those that contact it directly. Therefor it has become known amongst those that have seen maybe just a glimmer of one of its units under a variety of names. Those being:
> "The Metal Mind" (by Order of the Metal Mind)
> "The Iron God" (by Brotherhood of the Iron God)
> "The Black Curse" (by Trigals as well as various other smaller nations which might have witnessed a Type 2 HAWK ship obliterating smth)
> "Big daddy" (stated by an Trigal Officer)
> "Our Hidden Brother" (by Kaiton Hegemony)
> "SDS-036" (by SDS Foundation)
> "Atypical-Documented-Society-1001" (by Imperium of Kings)
> (insert further aliases of what your nations call it)
=== Underlying institutions===
Over its time HAWK has established institutions in other species to make it easier for itself to gain data about them but also to spread its influence. Although rarer in cases, it also uses them from time to time to wage proxy warfare or as means of not sending its own very advanced units into the field. Those institutions include:
> The Order of the Metal Mind
> The Brotherhood of the Iron God
> The Hybrid Enclave
> (further unknown)

*332: Took over full control of the Dagda Satellite Galaxy.
*333: Helped fight in the Qu war though mostly not partaking in battles already fought by others. Commanded the Hybrid Enclave to help the IDI.
==Technology==
Ranked by complexity and processing capabilities, HAWK is one of the most if not the most advanced artificial intelligences in the entire milky way galaxy.
===Research===
HAWK's main focus of technological development lies in stealth technologies, gravity manipulation, quantum mechanics and digital system infiltration.
As its nature is that of a digital program, fields like cyberwarfare, hacking and system infiltration come natural to it.
===Communication===
HAWK's communication and data transmission protocol is extremely simple, yet complex to the point where only another AI could possibly make sense of it.
====> Quantum Entanglement Transmitters====
HAWK's main method of communication is through a network of quantum entanglement transmitters (QT-devices). More specifically it uses special and highly advanced self-stabilizing transmitters to negate the quantum stabilisation fields normally required to maintain a stable connection with such devices over long distances. This has made it possibel for HAWK to coordinate Galactic wide operations in real-time.
Since a quantum transmitter can only sustain a connection between two points, all Transmitters have a free end which can be used by units with the other end sitting in a gigantic relay centre inside the Core. There all communications are managed and relayed to the required other transmitter units. It is also not uncommon for even small HAWK units to have more than 3 quantum entanglement transmitters as they are about the size of computer chips.
====> BlackLink Network====
A bit differently is it with the BlackLink network. While it is also based on the same technology, BlackLink devices come packaged together with additional processors and sensors as well as only 2 transmitters packaged in black, 1 cubic decimetres big boxes. They are devices given out to Institutions instated by HAWK (like OMM) to give them a method of communication as well as binding them to HAWK. Consequently these added components serve a protective purpose to make sure the cubes don't fall in the wrong hands. Furthermore as they run over almost the same network as HAWK's base com network they have an artificial delay on their communications which is used for checking the contents of the sent messages. Lastly, Blank Link cubes can also fully independently of any other tech work as a sort of radio or, having inbuilt speakers and microphones as well as cameras and projectors.
==System==

==Constructs==
Over the course of its existence HAWK has assumed control of and created a few structures and structure like systems. Most of them however are in uncharted space and therefore unknown by the vast majority of the galaxy with only a few hints peeking through the emplaced sensor distortion screens and natural chaotic nature of surrounding systems.

==Units==
HAWK is mainly a space based AI. Consequently its largest presence is established by space ships and extraplanetary installations. Furthermore HAWK utilizes Nanite Swarms for most of its construction and combat tactics. It does however not soli consist of nanites.
Other than that HAWK is also known for implementing hijacked or replicated robots created by others to complement its arsenal, especially when it comes to ground combat.
===Extraplanetary Units===
Extraplanetary (space) units are configured for the operation outside of atmospheric conditions. They can range from warships capable of interstellar travel to simple drones that perform construction or maintenance operations on HAWK's space-bound structures.
====HAWK craft====
<tabber>
|-|Overview=
For many of its interstellar operations, HAWK usually employs a series of pointed, oval shaped, deep-black coloured vessels referred to as HAWK-craft which come in a number of sizes with a length to radius ratio of 10:3 (example length 1km, width + height 300m)
HAWK Craft Types
Type	Length	Outer Shell segments	Function
0 	 	None 	Sabotage, infiltration and scouting probe
1 	300m 	None 	Reconnaissance, observation and scouting.
2 	1km 	2 	Multi-purpose vessel. Nanite Swarm carrier.
3 	 	4 	Purpose built combat vessel. Star matter based weapon system.
4 	 	4 	Purpose built combat vessel. Gravity sinkhole weapon platform.
|-|Type 0=
Type 0 HAWK craft are the smallest type fitting this classification.
Being probably closer to a probe than an actual ship their main purpose is mainly to serve as extremely stealthy scouts and/or the conduction of infiltration missions.
|-|Type 1=
Type 1 HAWK craft are one of the more numerous designs that roam the galaxy.
While they are bigger than their preceding type 0 counterpart, they mostly fall into the same catalogue of operations, serving as the eyes and ears of HAWK in the galaxy.
Consequently they are packed to the brim with sophisticated sensor equipment to measure and conduct observation, survey, and reconnaissance missions.
|-|Type 2=
Type 2 HAWK craft are probably the most commonly produced and employed design in HAWKs arsenal.
|-|Type 3=
Type 3 HAWK craft are purpose built combat ships. 
Their main armament consists of a strong magnetic system that allows them to gather, store, and later utilize star matter.
|-|Type 4=
Type 4 HAWK craft are purpose built combat ships. 
Their main weapon system revolves around the manipulation of gravity.

===Specialised Units===
Specialised units are the rarest types in HAWK's arsenal. They are usually created in response to a difficult task and not many of each type are created.

|-|Halo Craft=
Halo Craft are ginormous space vessels that were put in service in response to the Qu invasion of [---]. The only place they can be created from, due to their unique weapon system, is Archeo installation 2. They follow the same oval shape found in almost all other HAWK craft albeit being a bit shorter in relation to the usual ratio. Another oddity is the large hole that runs through the entire length of the vessels, giving them a more tubular appearance.
This Hole is required because of the integration of a Precursor Halo weapon system. As a result of this, Halo Craft are one of the most dangerous vessels a biological civilisation could come across. The way these craft use their Halo system is similar to the normal Halo installations as they can create range controlled burst which neutralise any organic matter in their radius. Alternatively they can also condense the dispersal into a concentrated beam to more accurately strike specific targets.
Initially 5 Halo craft were created via Archeo Installation 2 to combat the Qu forces.

==Purpose and Tasks==
The true Purpose and task of HAWK are even unknown to itself. From what has been observed it can be deducted that the gathering of knowledge and information must definitely a part of its core instructions. Furthermore the lack of direct interference with galactic affairs hints at a more observation and scientific based set of instructions.
An additional observation showed that during the Qu invasion of 333, although not directly aiding in battles fought by the other civilisations, HAWK showed great interest in combating the Invaders. If this was just out of long-term thinking in self-preservation or maybe also something else is still in debate but it definitely shows that a protective set of instructions of sorts must also be present.
