Description
Subspecies of colossal space predators, named "Dragons" for their ferocity and anomalous size. Confirmed: These creatures feed on small space worms and Void Leviathans.

Scientists have long assumed what caused the Leviathans to migrate into our system, but when the satellites spotted this monster, all questions disappeared. This first known subspecies of Void Dragons were named Basilisk, for their resemblance to the mythical serpent.

Research has shown: Void Dragons are not able to absorb cosmic radiation directly, like Void Leviathans, and therefore are forced to eat their radioactive meat. Absorbed in huge quantities of radiation and nutrients lead to the growth of these organisms to incredible sizes. Based on the growth charts of these creatures modeled by scientists, the Basilisk is one of the smallest subspecies of Void Dragons.

This monster is covered with incredibly strong energy barrier, and also has massive mouth mandibles that can tear apart both Void Leviathans and warships. In addition, its shell seems to be covered with special organs capable of shooting at objects with energy rays, probably for protection from asteroids. These rays can shoot down our missiles on approach, making this creature almost invulnerable to missile weapons. But its main weapon is energy breathing, capable of hitting several targets at once with explosive energy beams at great distances.


-Void Dragon can move it mandibles for catching and tearing its pray. For doing it, press "1" button in controls.

-This creature have a Point Defence Shell that can easily shoot down missiles and even fighters.

-The anatomy of this creature is designed in such a way that it cannot survive without its tail (Unlike Leviathans, whose tail they need only to store energy). If you separate the tail from the head, the creature dies.

-It is very difficult to destroy the energy barrier of this predator, but if you ram it at high speed on a large heavy ship, it can lead to serious injuries or even the death of the Void Dragon.


This build is sometimes unstable because of its size and mass.

"High Torque Rotors" mod is not necessary, but if you are going to use mandibles, this mod will prevent them from spontaneously detaching during an attack.


Have fun :}
