OPERATIONAL HISTORY

>> ACCESSING ARCHIVES...

The exact date of construction was wiped from every record. However, the Falkenhorst was built with the help of the Red Hessians in the early days of the Weiße Rose cell of the Bundschuh. Stefanie von Falkenberg requested the ship during her time in the Rose as Oberst under Helena Wunderbring's leadership. Sadly, the ship was never fully finished when the unthinkable happened. Helena Wundebring disappeared and Stefanie became the new Generaloberst of the Rose. However, this didn't last long as one of her Obersts, Albert Weiß staged a coup against her. Stefanie disappeared in 825 A.S. The ship was on its way to be delivered to Bruchsal with the hull, engines and core ready when the convoy was attacked by a heavily damaged Archer-Class Siege Cruiser, the Inquisitor.

Former Generaloberst Stefanie von Falkenberg, now part of the Aoi Iseijin as merely Falke, ceased control of her ship and brought both to Valhalla Shipyard where both stayed for a very long time. Unable to received a useful response from Battlegroup Harmony, later the Insurgency, Stefanie scrapped her plans for the Siege Cruiser and her revenge on Generaloberst Albert Weiß. Instead she used the Archer as part-donor for the half-finished Hel, repairing it as good as possible. The ship left Valhalla under Stefanie's command before Rheinland made their move to destroy the shipyard. And destroy it they did.

During that time the ship was under control of the Wild until Stefanie's 'mother', Ashura, engaged with the Vagrants. As fate demanded, Ashura ordered Stefanie to leave for the Taus before she went into her eternal slumber. The ship drifted for years in the Void while Stefanie found herself in a deep state of torpor, disconnected from the mindshare in eternal silence. She was very close to death when the silence was broken by the Abyssal Share of the Vagrants. Ashura re-emerged as Rakshasa, an engram of her former being within the Slomon K'Hara. Her voice echoing, together with the voice of another, Psyche the Dreamer.

The engines roared to life when she awoke. Her 'Mother' changed under the melody of the abyss. A gift granted to her loyal child. The gift of humanity, the gift of free will as long as she does not act against the Collective. She was needed right away for a new mission. The Platform has asked for an envoy of the Collective and she was chosen.

Currently the ship is part of the Platform, an anarchist cell of the Bundschuh. Only very few people among them know who she is, one of them is Civil Servant, a man with a long history. The Falkenhorst is under command of Stefanie von Falkenberg as Falke and her 'sister' Lucia Duval as Chevalier.
