PRODUCTION INFORMATION
- Manufacturer: Iron Howl
- Affiliation: Iron Howl | Iron Maw
- Market Status: Closed-Market
- Model: Emberline Command Interface Alpha
- Modularity: Yes (Console slots can be configured for different planetary alignments, ritual bindings, or range functions)
- Production: Unique
- Material:
- Alchemized durasteel frame
- Engraved kyber crystal obelisks
- Dais of scorched bone ash

- Sith ritual circuitry and antique components
SPECIAL FEATURES
- Psionic Command Throne: Allows a chosen operator to interface with all active Emberline Array systems, including Tokens and Beacons.
- Battlefield Divination: Can be used to perform macro-level "readings" of troop morale, mass movement, or high-Force-user presence over vast areas.
- Ashline Scrying Pool: Allows limited real-time divination via psychic resonance between connected beacons.
- Force Resonance Shielding: Creates a localized ripple field that protects the operator from external mind-reading or sensory overreach.
- Overcast Protocol: Temporarily overcharges all Ashline Beacons to project a psychic scream across their zones—disrupts Force sensitivity within the radius.
- Failsafe Lockout: If the operator dies mid-ritual, the console traps their essence within the array as a "Wailing Ghost"—usable later for emergency guidance or vengeance rituals.
STRENGTHS
- Command & Control Hub: Enables total real-time coordination across Emberline systems.
- Psychic Overwatch: Ideal for battlefield awareness, infiltration management, and Force-user hunting.
- Ritual Weaponization: Can temporarily weaponize the network for area-of-effect Force disruption.
WEAKNESSES
- Singular Anchor: There is only one operational Console—if destroyed, the entire Emberline system suffers heavy disruption.
- Operator Dependency: Requires a powerful Force-sensitive mystic to function at full capacity.
- Emotionally Dangerous: The console absorbs emotion and memory—prolonged use can cause identity breakdown or psychic echo addiction.
- Force Null: Force Nullification zones or abilities completely render the console inert until Force presence is reestablished.
DESCRIPTION
The Ashline Ritual Console is not just a machine—it is a throne of fire and echo, from which the Maw's true hand reaches across the galaxy. Hidden deep within the Iron Maw's volcanic core, the Console is carved into the metal bones of the dreadnought itself. It is surrounded by burning incense, rotating relics, and drifting echoes of past operators—the dead never quite leave.
Its user, the Ash-Seer, sits encircled by pulsating sigils and alchemical relays, immersed in pain, emotion, and vision. Through the console, the Iron Howl can coordinate Ashline Beacons, empower Ember Tokens, or tap into planetary-scale Force impressions. In war, it becomes a command altar; in ritual, it is a psychic altar.
Few survive long stints in the throne. Fewer are allowed to leave it whole. All carry the burn.
