 +==== Fighting Craft ====
 +
 +While smaller craft exist within the Empire, most of the fighting is done by either titanic warforms and/or smaller, humanoid-sized robotic war beasts.
 +
 +Warforms vary in size from thirty meters to above one hundred, though their designs tend to remain consistent. Most warforms honor one of the Ankhet's gods with their design. Like their smaller counterpart, even the largest of warforms are surprisingly adaptable and nimble. Their limbs and bodies reconfigure into whatever weapon or feature they require; lost parts can be reattached or reconstituted from other Ankhet technology.

 +==== Weaponry ====
 +
 +Ship and vehicle-based weaponry seems to appear as needed, drawing upon nearby or dormant components. If necessary, individual units will attach to larger craft and become weapon emplacements.
 +
 +Ankhet warriors have been seen to pick up smaller robots, who shift into weapon forms on the fly. Discarded, but functional, weapons produce heads and legs and join the fight on their own.

 +===== Sound =====

 They are not impervious to damage, whether it be from technological or magic sources, but they are surprisingly hardy. Even their grunt units can prove a challenge for a skilled force, shrugging off damage that would easily down a similarly sized allied unit. Once wounded, they continue to crawl forward in an attempt to finish their task. They are not impervious to damage, whether it be from technological or magic sources, but they are surprisingly hardy.

 +===== Rumors and Quests =====
 +
 +==== Quests ====
 +  * The Eternal Empire is happy to promote strife in the sector. They fund numerous mercenary and bandit groups.
 +  * The many worlds of the Ankhet are full of dangers - but also many treasures for those bold enough to seek them out.
 +
 +==== Common Rumors ====
 +  * While the Ankhet seem genocidal, they readily trade with others, especially those who deal in fine arts.
 +  * The Ankhet respect strength above all other things. If they consider you to be worthy, they might not kill you. For now.
 +
 +==== Uncommon Rumors ====
 +  * The Eternal Empire is one of the greatest military strengths in the Calliope Sector.
 +  * A strange code of honor prohibits the Ankhet from destroying another empire without attempting to make the combat fair. Initially.
 +    * Anyone that the Ankhet deem too dangerous are exempt from this code, due to their religious beliefs taking precedence.
 +
 +==== Rare/Unsubstantiated Rumors ====
 +  * The Immortal Empress was behind the disease that led to the conversion of her people, as a way to secure her power.
 +  * Not all of the Akhar are robots - some still walk in flesh and blood.
