The Titan-Class Flagship is the zenith of Solarian naval power and the foremost emblem of Ducal authority. Standing over a kilometer in length, these ships are not mere war machines; they are mobile palaces, courts of law, and symbols of dominion. To glimpse a Titan in orbit is to witness the weight of centuries of Solarian ambition made steel.
Commissioned as the First Class of House Solaris’ fleet, Titans were designed to supersede the aging Imperius-Class and consolidate the House’s ascendancy within the Imperium. Their sheer scale ensures that only a handful exist at any given time, each vessel a generational project consuming the full might of the Ossus Orbital Shipyards.
Design Phase: 2782–2797 (15 years)
Keel Laid: 2797 (ISS Dawn of Ossus)
Hull Completion: 2800
Systems Integration & Trials: 2804–2809
Commissioning: 2809
Each Titan requires approximately 9 years from keel to commissioning, and Ossus Shipyards can sustain only one active Titan build at a time. As a result, fewer than a dozen have ever existed, with only three currently in service.

ISS Dawn of Ossus – First Titan built; keel laid 2797, commissioned 2809. Now maintained as ceremonial vessel and officer training ship.
ISS Valerius’ Oath – Second Titan; keel laid 2809, commissioned 2821. Currently serves as the active flagship of Duchess Miriam Solaris until her permanent command vessel is complete.
ISS Solaris Invictus – Third Titan; keel laid 2821, projected commissioning 2833. Intended as the Duchess’ flagship, combining palace, fortress, and throne into one vessel. Its construction is the most ambitious project in the history of Ossus Shipyards.
The first Titan, the ISS Dawn of Ossus, was commissioned in 2809, marking the dawn of the modern Ducal fleet era.
As of 2820, only two Titans are in service:
Dawn of Ossus – Docked at Ossus Shipyards as a ceremonial and officer training vessel.
Valerius’ Oath – Newly commissioned in 2819, currently serving as the active flagship of Duchess Miriam Solaris and assigned to Sinaia and Gate defense.
The third Titan, Solaris Invictus, was laid down in 2820 and is under construction. It is intended as the Duchess’ permanent flagship upon its projected commissioning in 2829.
Titans rarely depart their stations except in times of Imperial command or Ducal necessity. Their movement is not merely logistical but a political declaration in steel.
