It is thousands of times larger than the standard [[Cabal Warship]]s and [[Cabal Carrier|Carriers]], possibly even larger than [[Dreadnaught|Oryx's Dreadnaught]]; rivalling the diameter of [[Mercury]] in width.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmFGetMZi6s '''YouTube''' - ''Destiny 2 Gameplay Premiere'']</ref> Following the conquest of a star system by the [[Red Legion]], ''The Almighty'' is sent in to extract whatever resources it can from the system and then completely annihilate it. | ||
''The Almighty'' works by consuming a nearby celestial body, breaking it down and converting it into fuel that powers an energy beam that links with the system's star on a quantum level. This link is so strong that if the Almighty were to be destroyed before decoupling, it would cause a chain reaction that would destroy both the star and the system. The energy beam gradually weakens and destabilizes the star's magnetic field to the point where it can no longer support itself and collapses into a system annihilating supernova. In the final moments before the star's collapse ''The Almighty'' severs its link with the star and warps to another system, where the process repeats. | ''The Almighty'' works by consuming a nearby celestial body, breaking it down and converting it into fuel that powers an energy beam that links with the system's star on a quantum level.

During the War for the [[Dreaming City]] a Guardian looter boarded the derelict vessel. A trap of unknown origin was set off suspending the Guardian within a time distortion. The Guardian's Ghost was unable to revive him and estimates he will disarm the trap in 50,000 years. | During the War for the [[Dreaming City]] a Guardian looter boarded the derelict vessel.
