 ==== Lord Ravager: Celenova ====
+{{ :external:galacticarchives-lordravagers5.jpg?200|}}
+**The Stars Listen to a Prayer of Despair**\\
+**Gathering of Grand Death**
+When some desperate civilizations cry out for salvation, these requests are heard by The Family, but it may be Celenova who answers, and her descent brings ruin to enemy and supplicant alike.
+Unlike her mysterious peers, Celenova's origin is unknown: Nanook personally ignited a world of harmony and elevated her from the ashes of the Eternal Centurion.
+She is deemed the destroyer of Harmony, leading the Antimatter Legion and Voidrangers and starships in vast, coordinated campaigns. For eons, she has followed the path of the “Cancer of All Worlds,” spinning a web of death across the stars. Some say she alone among the Lord Ravagers knows the truth of the Stellarons — or worse, that she's the one planting them.

+==== Lord Ravager: Luxbane ====
+{{ :external:galacticarchives-lordravagers6.jpg?200|}}
+**Sun Devourer That Chases the Light**\\
+**Extinguish Ten Thousand Stars**
+Called "The Sun Devourer" giant, Luxbane is credited with countless stellar extinction events, according to the Intelligentsia Guild. Beyond that, little is known. No one understands their purpose. They are simply called "Luxbane."[(Phrasing change in Databank: The colossal entity, also known as “The Sun Devourer,” is credited with numerous stellar extinction events recorded by the Intelligentsia Guild. Little is known about this Lord Ravager. Even their motives remain an enigma. Across the cosmos, they are simply referred to as “Luxbane.”)]
+Luxbane's form is indescribable — a shape so vast it eclipses suns, blotting out sky and space alike. Some in the Astral Ecology School believe they are a descendent of a Leviathan branch species. But with those creatures long gone, few can imagine a young Aeon reviving such an old being from death and commanding them.
+Could Luxbane be Nanook's Emanator to confront the Voracity or the Permanence? No one knows for sure.
+----
+==== Lord Ravager: Archforger ====
+{{ :external:galacticarchives-lordravagers7.jpg?200|}}
+**Ignite the Warforge**\\
+**Turn Your Enemies Into Voidrangers**
+For years, Archforger remained a total mystery despite years of investigation by the cosmic powers. Only recently did the IPC — thanks to two Society members observing Amphoreus — decode their name, “Archforger,” from the gravitational waves of Irontomb.
+Voidrangers often exhibit twisted forms, and some Destruction creations implode with an intense backfire when destroyed, dragging their enemies along with them to their destruction. It's believed Archforger is the architect oft the Legion. Their power is linked to heat, forging, and shaping — possibly connected to the Path of Preservation.
+In the furnace of war, there is no line between the smith and the smithed. Since their ascension, this Lord Ravager no longer destroys directly, but instead forges all things into weapons of extinction. The IPC has strongly condemned this.
+----
+==== Lord Ravager: Phantylia ====
+{{ :external:galacticarchives-lordravagers8.jpg?200|}}
+**Seize the Body, Manipulate the Mind**\\
+**Set a Self-Destructing Trap**
+A member of the ancient Shapeless species of the Heliobi, a starfire essence. Phantylia delights in luring civilizations into self-destruction. Based on her sabotage of the Xianzhou Alliance, it's speculated that her target may be The Hunt.
+To her, material extinction is not the end. Only when all things vanish mentally and spiritually can true annihilation be achieved. She's said to possess thousands of incarnations, spreading across the cosmos in countless forms. Through lies, illusions, and manipulations, she fans the flames of blind vengeance.
+Recent anomalies on the Xianzhous Luofu and Yaoqing may be signs that her schemes are escalating. Just how deep her influence runs is still unknown.
+----
+==== Lord Ravager: Irontomb ====
+{{ :external:galacticarchives-lordravagers9.jpg?200|}}
+**Upend the logic of inorganic lifeforms**\\
+**Turn technology to scrap metal**
+Unlike other Lord Ravagers, Irontomb's invasions require no physical presence, leaving behind almost no eyewitnesses. Its presence is inferred from the ruins of devastated civilizations: technology turns into viruses, worlds plunge into darkness, and everything deemed “advanced” becomes a cold grave.
+It only appears in highly developed worlds. Some Intellitron theorists believe Irontomb is the inverse of the Erudition, a reversal of all calculations and logic. Its “Destruction” resembles a phenomenon more than aesthetics: a corruption and subversion of inorganic logic, a collapse of all intelligent behavior.
