Huron Blackheart must be laughing his ass off after Abby replaced his Blackstone for this...junk...

Arks of Omen are Failbaddon's new copeship needed to aid his faltering Black Crusade after he raged-quit and yeeted his last remaining (And priceless!) Blackstone Fortress on Cadia. These things were for all intents and purposes, Space Hulks. Literally, that's what they are. Except, rather than being filled with mushrooms and cockroaches, they are now filled with literal edgelords.

Overview

Being nothing more than a colossal Black Legion void craft, they were unleashed to reinforce the Black Legion's Balefleets and seize the Nachmund Gauntlet from the Imperium.

Each Ark of Omen is heavily weaponised and augmented with a piece of Vashtorr's own fleshmetal, granting its master as much control over the craft as any other voidship could offer. Abaddon the Despoiler awards them to a favoured Warband – seeded, naturally, with loyal enforcers and informants – and he also dispatches the Arks to claim fragments of a mysterious superweapon known as "The Key", which would grant him power beyond mortal imagination if reassembled. It is unknown what exactly this Key is, as Abaddon has kept its true nature a secret even from his most trusted lieutenants- the only hint about it he has given is that it makes the servants of the Emperor greater traitors than any Chaos Space Marine could ever be. The known fragments of the key give no clue to what it is either, as they have taken the form of everything from meteorites to cogitator banks.
