Panoptes, Infinite Mind

Panoptes, Infinite Mind is a powerful Vex Axis Mind found within the Infinite Forest on Mercury. It oversees the simulated realities generated by the Infinite Forest and uses them to shape the Vex's strategies in the "real" universe. It is the main antagonist of Curse of Osiris.

Overview
Panoptes is housed within a unique Vex armature, resembling a massive Hydra chassis with an angular "head", two arms resembling those of a bipedal Vex unit, wing-like appendages, and numerous glowing "tentacles". Many components of its body float independently of one another.

Panoptes was one of the first Vex who came to Mercury and converted it from a garden world to a Vex Machine World. Sagira used this origin point to locate Panoptes’ lair by projecting time forward, identifying Infinity’s Crown as the location within the Infinite realities that the Vex Mind could be found.

Panoptes is completely invulnerable to damage unless shorted out with an Arc charge, upon which it will expose its vulnerable "eye". Although it does not utilize "conventional" Vex weaponry, it is capable of summoning simulated protectors (including simulated Vex, Hive, Fallen and Cabal) for defense, and can delete unwanted entities such as Guardians from the Infinite Forest at will.

Trivia

 * The term "Panoptes" translates to "all-seeing", and is a reference to "Argus Panoptes", a giant from Greek myth. It also alludes to the fact that Panoptes has the ability to see all possible realities.
