Unlike the Dreadnaught, the Nephilim's hull was carved from the corpses of [[Worm#Named Worms|Leviathans]]<ref group="note">Two of these Leviathans are named, Camuul and Xivo, both of which were "honored" as two of the Nephilim's Lost Sectors would be named after them</ref>, that were hunted down and skinned of their chitin by Shin'ra who was assisted by his own Celebrants. Their bodies rewritten in Ascendant fabric and Hive arcana to reforge them into their new shape of the Nephilim.

Its design is similar to that of the [[Tomb Carrier]]s, being a large rectangular hexagon with large spikes protruding from each end. From its front resting its main weapon, being that of an enormous Leviathan vertebrae.

===Propulsion===
The main form of propulsion comes from its central engine, which is powered exclusively by its Soulfire core. However this same core is what powers the entirety of the ship, from its weapons, cloaking and its engines. It is however entirely fortified by layered chitin, practically impenetrable by any known means, even [[Cabal]] munitions were noted to have no effect on its shielding.

Another form of transport would be its ability to make "wounds" in space by opening rifts into the [[Ascendant Realm]]. The method for doing this would be a coven of Hive [[Wizards]] that Shin'ra employed to open these rifts and allow the Nephilim to travel vast distances, even one instance being from to Kuiper Belt, directly into the skies of the [[Dreaming City]] during the [[Forum:Golden War|Golden War]].
