The Hive warship is an unidentified class of Hive spacecraft. These ships form part of Oryx's fleet and are found near Saturn. One of them, a prison ship, has been converted into a Crucible site.
History
A fleet of Hive warships and smaller Tombships accompanied the Dreadnaught during Oryx's incursion of the Solar System.[1] Like the Dreadnaught, Hive warships are rectangular hexahedrons, but where the Dreadnaught's dimensions are consistent along its length, Hive warships taper slightly so that the front of the vessel is narrower than the rear. The warships appear to be armed with weapons that deal Solar damage due to their orange coloration.[2]
The Battle of Saturn devastated the Hive fleet. Although the Dreadnaught made it through unscathed, the Awoken fleet destroyed many Hive warships with the aid of Harbingers. The vast majority of the fleet was ultimately the victim of friendly-fire, however. When Oryx fired the Dreadnaught's main weapon, the blast indiscriminately obliterated Hive and Awoken vessels within a set radius of the Dreadnaught itself. A portion of the Hive fleet, including some Hive warships, was outside the blast zone at the time and survived, though so many ships were lost that Oryx was forced to stall his invasion of the inner system.
Two Hive warships are later seen in the skies of the Oversoul Throne during Crota, Son of Oryx's funeral.
Four Hive warships are known to have survived the Dreadnaught's superweapon, one of which has been converted into a Crucible ground, The Dungeons.
