Aeacus
The Aeacus was a Promitor Class Transport that was used as a prison ship by the Imperium, during the Horus Heresy. More commonly known as the Nameless Fortress by its prisoners, it was stationed above Pluto when the Solar War suddenly began. As war raged around the transport, the Aeacus' guards were ordered to begin executing its prisoners, to prevent them from falling into the hands of Horus' forces. However the Aeacus was attacked and crippled, before the executions were finished. This allowed the prisoner Mersadie Oliton to escape aboard a shuttle, before the heavily damaged transport tore itself apart.[1]
