编辑“守护者”

{{Version|3.4}}
{{Spacealiensnav}}
{{ruby|守护者|Guardians}}或者俗称的{{ruby|星神兽|Leviathans}}（利维坦），是在各种DLC中添加的极其强大的太空生命体。它们可以在特殊的预设星系中找到，并且在体积和质量上可以与天体卫星相抗衡。它们在舰队力量窗口和银河系地图上都标有骷髅图标，确切的强度数字只能在调试模式打开时才能看到。每个守护者都有一个独特的事件链。虽然人们在探索过程中可能只会遇到一个，但在策展人组织的帮助下也可以找到它们。守护者的生命值非常高，一般建议在中后期游戏才可与之交战。

守护者会根据游戏难度获得各种增益，使他们变得更强。AI帝国只有在其舰队力量至少为40k时才会攻击守护者。 

{{expansion|nec}}
拥有 {{iconify|Reanimators}} 或 {{iconify|Permanent Employment}} 国民理念的帝国在击杀一个有机生命守护者之后，可以获得一个选项以花费 10000 {{iconify|society}}点数复活该守护者并加入己方。复活的守护者不能并入舰队或由舰队司令指挥。

== 小行星蜂群 ==
[[File:Evt hive.png|450px|thumb|蜂群小行星带]]
{{expansion|lev}}
银河系中的一个随机星系将拥有一个小行星带，其中包含5颗独特的晶体小行星，其矿藏为6-8 {{iconify|Minerals}}，此外还有6颗不可被鼠标选择的小行星，其中一颗会发出类似啁啾的声音。第一次进入该星系将显示一个事件窗口，提示星系的内容将会超出人们的想象。

如果该星系已被宣称并建有恒星基地，则{{ruby|小行星蜂群|Asteroid Hives}}将会根据星系内已建造的采矿站数量在如下MTTH后觉醒：
{| class="wikitable" style="text-align: center;
! 采矿站数量
| 0 || 1 || 2 || 3 || 4 || 5
|-
! MTTH
| 100 年 || 33.3 年 || 11.1 年 || 3.7 年 || 1.2 年 || 0.4 年
|}

小行星蜂群只使用舰载机作为武器。因此，舰载机是理想的反击武器，因为小行星蜂群本身没有点防御，发射的舰载机将在攻击守护者之前与敌人交战并摧毁敌人。此外，舰载机本身也拥有点防御。

击败所有6个小行星蜂群，除了允许在该星系中安全开采外，还将获得500 {{iconify|Energy}}和 2000{{iconify|Society}}点数。

== 自动无畏战舰 ==
[[File:Evt automated dreadnought.png|450px|thumb|在小行星带中巡逻的自动无畏战舰]]
{{expansion|lev}}
银河系中随机一个拥有两颗宜居星球的星系将由{{ruby|自动无畏战舰|Automated Dreadnought}}守护，这是一艘古老的战舰，被锁定在巡逻模式。自动无畏战舰使用常规舰船部件，可以采用合适的策略以对抗。

击败自动无畏战舰后将获得如下两个选项：
# 拆解无畏战舰以获得 5000 {{iconify|Energy}} 和 {{iconify|Minerals}} 以及30个月(1000~5000) 的{{iconify|Engineering}}点数。
# 发布一个特殊项目以修复无畏战舰，花费50000 {{iconify|Engineering}} 点数。修复后的无畏战舰配装与上面列出的相同，只是它失去了{{icon|ship health}} 船体和 {{icon|ship shield}} 护盾的星神兽修正，但会获得额外的两个{{icon|slot l}} [[File:Ship part shield 5.png|24px]] 超级护盾。如果帝国拥有灵能跃迁引擎科技，其[[File:Ship part jump drive 1.png|24px]] 跃迁引擎将升级为[[File:Ship_part_psi_jump_drive_1.png|24px]] 灵能跃迁引擎。在该舰被完全修复之后，包括跃迁引擎在内的所有部件都无法替换或升级。

== 位面之魇 ==
[[File:Evt dimensional horror.png|450px|thumb|在当前维度中出现的位面之魇]]
{{expansion|lev}}
银河系中的一个随机黑洞星系将在传感器上显示为空，但当首次进入时会揭示出{{ruby|位面之魇|Dimensional Horror}}，一个只是部分位于当前维度的噩梦般的生物。位面之魇不能移动，但它的触手可以跨越整个星系，这会使得首次进入该星系的科研船在设法逃脱之前就已经船毁人亡。它的武器无视装甲，但对护盾造成-75%的伤害。位面之魇具有同等数量的护盾、装甲和船体，但没有闪避，使远程动能火炮或X槽武器成为理想的反击武器。

== 神秘堡垒 ==
[[File:Evt enigmatic fortress.png|450px|thumb|全副武装的远古堡垒]]
{{expansion|lev}}

== 以太巨龙 ==
[[File:Evt space dragon.png|450px|thumb|以太巨龙，可以被复活]]
{{expansion|lev}}
银河系中一个随机的F型恒星星系将有一个 [[File:Planet molten.png|21px]] 熔融世界，称为{{ruby|龙之宝藏|Dragon's Hoard}}，由{{ruby|以太巨龙|Ether Drake}}，一个天体卫星大小的龙一样的守护者。以太巨龙只使用能量武器，对护盾造成-20%的伤害，具有高船体和装甲，但自身没有护盾。因此，装备能量武器和护盾舰队是理想的反击武器。最初，以太巨龙只会在原地守卫龙之宝藏，但如果它受到足够的攻击，损失20%的生命，它将进入属于攻击者的两个随机星系，并摧毁其恒星基地。以太巨龙离开后，如果这些星系被殖民，恒星基地将重建为边境前哨。如果以太巨龙失去85%的生命，它将停留或撤退到龙之宝藏并进行治疗。

== 无限神机 ==
[[File:Evt technosphere.png|450px|thumb|围绕卡冈都亚黑洞运行的无限神机]]
{{expansion|lev}}
银河系中一个名为{{ruby|卡冈都亚|Gargantua}}的黑洞星系将存在一个{{ruby|无限神机|Infinity Machine}}，游戏中唯一没有敌意的守护者。起初无法与无限神机进行交互，但在被发现后一两年，无限神机将发送一个传输，并启动一个特殊项目，该项目需要360天，需要一名至少3级科学家领导才能完成。完成特殊项目允许以下选项：
* {{icon|Materialist}}{{icon|Fanatic Materialist}} 唯物主义帝国可以尝试破解无限神机。机率为50%，如果成功，它将永久授予{{green|+5%}} {{iconify|Research}}产出帝国修正以及 {{iconify|Positronic AI|21px}} 或 {{iconify|Zero Point Power|21px}} 科技。如果两者都已经研究过，则将获得 1000-5000 {{iconify|Society}}点数。对于{{iconify|Gestalt Consciousness}}帝国来说，这是唯一的选择。这种方法会破坏无限神机。 
* {{icon|Spiritualist}}{{icon|Fanatic Spiritualist}} 唯心主义帝国可以宣布无限神机为圣物，获得 {{green|+5%}} {{iconify|Happiness}} 帝国修正。
* {{icon|Militarist}}{{icon|Fanatic Militarist}} 军国主义帝国可以用陆军部队摧毁无限神机，而无需与之战斗，以获得与击败它时相同的奖励。
* 在特殊项目完成后，所有帝国都可以与无限神机通信。{{icon|Militarist}}{{icon|Fanatic Militarist}} 军国主义和 {{iconify|Fanatic Egalitarian}}帝国可以尝试说出命题的悖论，但无限神机只是觉得悖论无聊。帝国可以提供帮助，并启动一个需要1800天和一艘科研船才能完成的特殊项目。完成项目将产生以下结果之一：
** 50%：项目失败，但无限神机给予帝国 {{iconify|Positronic AI|24px}} 科技的奖励。如果已经研究过，它将给予 {{iconify|Zero Point Power|24px}} 科技。如果对两者都进行了研究，它将给予帝国一个 {{green|+5%}} {{iconify|Research}}产出帝国修正。
** 25%：项目成功，无限神机进入黑洞。它将给予帝国 {{iconify|Positronic AI|24px}} 科技的奖励。如果已经研究过，它将给予 {{iconify|Zero Point Power|24px}} 科技。如果对两者都进行了研究，它将给予150 {{iconify|Influence}}。此外，黑洞将获得{{green|4}} {{iconify|Research}} 矿藏。
** 25%：项目成功，无限神机进入黑洞并将其缩小到更小的尺寸，重命名为{{ruby|庞大古埃|Pantagruel}}，这将获得{{green|10}} {{iconify|Research}} 矿藏。帝国将获得200 {{iconify|Influence}}，并永久获得“知识之镜”国家修正（{{green|+10%}} {{iconify|Research Speed}}）。此外，可以联系策展人组织，并提供一些信息以获得500 {{iconify|Engineering}}点数。

当然，无限神机也可以被攻击，迫使其打开并变得具有攻击性。无限神机配备了激光、攻击艇、重型护盾和再生组件，具有良好的躲避能力。因此，使用动能武器和护盾舰队是理想的反击方式。摧毁无限神机将获得700-4000 {{iconify|Minerals}}和250-500 {{iconify|Influence}}。或者，任何非{{iconify|Gestalt Consciousness}}的帝国可以研究其本质，以永久解锁下一层{{iconify|Mechanical}}人口研究。摧毁无限神机会移除任何帝国修正。

== 光谱幽魂 ==
[[File:Evt wraith.png|450px|thumb|650THz光谱幽魂]]
{{expansion|lev}}
{{ruby|光谱幽魂|Spectral Wraith}}是一个只能在游戏中期出现的守护者。当调查银河系中的随机脉冲星时，将发现一个独特的[[File:PM Strong Magnetic Field.png|24px]] 脉冲萌发修正。第一个调查脉冲星的帝国将显示一个事件窗口，指向游戏中期时间开始的日期，并暗示光谱幽灵将在该星系中诞生。

与其他守护者不同，光谱幽魂是完全可移动的，可以在银河系的任何地方游荡。它将产生三种颜色之一：红色、黄色或蓝色。在恒星具有相同颜色的系统中（<b style="color:#D2483B">M</b>型对红色幽魂，<b style="color:#D2D62C">G</b>型对黄色幽魂，<b style="color:#2B8ED9">A</b>型或<b style="color:#8B2DCB">B</b>型对蓝色幽魂），光谱幽魂将获得-50% {{iconify|Armor}} 和 {{iconify|Evasion}}。其他恒星类型不会触发此减益，即使恒星描述中提到的颜色匹配（例如红巨星没有效果）；并且在二元/三元恒星星系中也不会触发。除了减益之外，颜色变化纯粹是装饰性的。

策略：
* 船体拥有20k生命值、10k装甲和75%的闪避。前面提到的减益可将其减至5k装甲，25%闪避。因此，小能量武器提供了适当的跟踪和反装甲能力，但由于船体/装甲比值较高，几乎任何武器都很有效
* 武器对船体伤害100%，对装甲200%，对护盾50%，命中率80%，追踪75%
* 配备中小型火炮和重型护盾或水晶镀层的驱逐舰或巡洋舰是理想的选择
* 如果建立了一个完美的反击系统，则可以启动~5k的舰队来击败它。即使在大炮和脉冲星系统等次优条件下，~10k也能轻而易举地击败它。这使它成为最弱的星神兽之一，但反过来，能否抓住它也是个问题。

== 噬星者 ==
[[File:Evt stellarites.png|450px|thumb|噬星者的真实尺度]]
{{expansion|lev}}
银河系中一个随机的M型恒星星系将在传感器上显示为空，但首次进入时会揭示出{{ruby|噬星者|Stellar Devourer}}，一种以恒星为食的发光的太空实体。如果与噬星者处于交战状态，并且其没有损失至少67%的生命，则其将攻击交战者的一个星系，直到恒星基地被禁用，然后停留90天直到撤退。如果该星系被殖民，所有行星将获得{{red|-25%}} {{iconify|Happiness}} 和 {{iconify|habitability}}，直到噬星者离开。

噬星者的武器主要是能量武器和鱼雷，因此护盾和点防御是有效的反击手段。它有极高的船体和点防御，但没有装甲或护盾，使等离子武器和粒子发射器等破坏船体的武器成为最有效的反击武器。

击败噬星者将提供一个特殊项目来调查它的遗骸，这个项目需要60天才能完成。一旦完成，将获得以下选项：
# 收获噬星者体内储存的能量，获得10000 {{iconify|Energy}}、2000 {{iconify|Minerals}}和80 {{iconify|Influence}}的大量奖励。
# 尝试在噬星者的母星系中重新点燃恒星。该项目有30%的几率杀死这位科学家及其飞船，但会保证整个星系更适合居住：所有冰封星球都将变成极地星球。所有其他行星也会经历温度升高，完全重新旋转。

{{icon|xenophobe}}{{icon|fanatic xenophobe}} 排外主义和 {{icon|militarist}}{{icon|fanatic militarist}} 军国主义可以选择在帝国首都获得独特的 [[File:D monument.png|24px]] 噬星者纪念碑行星特征（+8 {{iconify|Unity}}，+5% {{iconify|Happiness}}），同时获得500 {{iconify|influence}}。

== 长者 ==
[[File:Evt dimensional horror.png|450px|thumb|在当前维度中出现的长者]]
{{expansion|lev}}
银河系中某个随机行星可能包含考古遗址 {{icon|Archaeology Site}} ''[[考古遗址#破损的大门|破损的大门]]''。共有4个章节，每章节给予1-5个 {{iconify|Minor Artifacts}}。当完成最后一章后{{ruby|长者|the Elder One}}将开始显现，帝国可以选择阻止它并获得350-10000 {{iconify|Engineering}}点数或者释放它。释放它会像噬星者一样摧毁整个星系，长者会出现，但不会变得敌对。如果释放，长者将在10天后联系帝国，并提出重建被摧毁星系的恒星基地，并给予帝国修正，该修正将提供{{green|+6%}} {{iconify|Research Speed}} 和 {{red|-10%}} {{iconify|Growth Speed}}。拒绝将给予150-300 {{iconify|Influence}}，但长者将变得敌对。

长者的战斗方式和位面之魇完全一致。如果被杀死，则其提供的帝国修正将被移除。

== 恶堕化身 ==
[[File:Evt wormhole.png|450px|thumb|Corrupted Avatar]]
{{expansion|dst}}
A randomly placed system with a wormhole will bring an event window when first entered, mentioning a signal coming out of the wormhole and hinting that this specific wormhole is different from the rest. Exploring the wormhole will reveal its connection to a trinary system in the galaxy with no hyperlane connections. Said system is guarded by a {{ruby|恶堕化身|Corrupted Avatar}} (aka Psionic Entity). The Avatar uses only energy weapons that ignore armor but do -75% damage to shields. It has moderate hull and strong shields but no armor or PD, making missiles and strike craft very effective.

Defeating the Corrupted Avatar allows free access to the system, which contains a {{iconify|Gaia World}} which when surveyed will reveal a level V anomaly. Investigating the anomaly grants access to the {{iconify|Neural Tissue Engineering|21px}} technology to organic empires or 300-1000 {{iconify|Society Research}} if {{iconify|Machine Intelligence}}. The gas giant in the system will also have an {{iconify|Exotic Gases}} deposit.

The Corrupted Avatar can be avoided by setting a science ship's stance to passive and guiding it around the guardian. This approach does not allow colonizing the Gaia World but it does allow the research reward to be claimed.

If a Sentry Array has been completed the system housing the Corrupted Avatar can be seen but cannot be entered with Jump Drives until the system has been entered via the wormhole first.

Unlike other guardians the Corrupted Avatar will always be present if the required DLC is installed. Its system is accessible only via a wormhole which will appear even if wormholes were disabled on game startup.

In the {{iconify|Utopia}} DLC Corrupted Avatars can also appear for 10 years following Shroud failures. They have the same stats but do not grant any reward upon being defeated.

== 缇扬奇族母 ==
[[File:Evt ancient tiyanki.png|450px|thumb|Tiyanki Matriarch; can be reanimated]]
{{expansion|dst}}
A random system in the galaxy with a Gaia World and another habitable world will be home to the {{ruby|缇扬奇族母|Tiyanki Matriarch}}, the eldest member of the species and the only one to be aggressive when approached. The Matriarch has two weapons - one that ignores armor and does -75% damage against shields and one that deals double damage against both shields and armor. It also has significant armor and very high hull but no shields and as a result should be engaged with energy weapons.

Defeating the Tiyanki Matriarch will breach the Galactic Law if the Tiyanki Conservation Act Resolution was passed and the empire is a member of the Galactic Community. Doing so will also incur a fine of {{red|-5000}} {{iconify|Energy Credits}}.

Defeating the Tiyanki Matriarch gives the following rewards:

== 虚空孳孽 ==
[[File:Evt voidspawn.png|450px|thumb|Voidspawn; can be reanimated]]
{{expansion|dst}}
The {{ruby|虚空孳孽|Voidspawn}} is an unborn guardian, hidden within a size 20 {{icon|desert}}{{icon|arid}}{{icon|savannah}} Dry world orbiting a class G star. Within a year after colonizing a planet in the system, an event will mention how the dry world has a pulse. Within the next half a year the planet will change its appearance, add {{red|30}} {{iconify|Devastation}} and create 3 Rifts Blockers. Within another half a year one of two things will happen. Either the pulse will stop or the planet will once again change its appearance, add {{red|30}} {{iconify|Devastation}} and create 3 Rifts Blockers. Should the latter happen the Voidspawn will hatch in a few months, destroying the colony and turning the planet into a Cracked World with a 20 {{iconify|Society}} Research deposit. A month later it becomes hostile.

The Voidspawn uses only guided weapons. It has high hull and armor but no shields, making energy weapons effective against it.

The guardian uses only guided weapons. It uses equal amounts of shields and armor but has no point-defense and barely any evasion, making both guided weapons and strike craft very effective against it.

Defeating the Scavenger Bot grants the {{icon|nanite repair system tech|24px}} Nanite Repair System technology, as well as two random {{icon|Gauss Cannons Tech|21px}}{{icon|Gamma Lasers Tech|21px}}{{icon|Marauder Missiles Tech|21px}}{{icon|Neutronium Materials|21px}}{{icon|Hyper Shields Tech|21px}} tier V component techs or a large amount of {{iconify|Engineering}} research if all techs were already researched.

Additionally the system has two broken worlds that bring in total 20 {{iconify|Minerals}} and 1 {{iconify|Nanites}} when mined.

== 裂爪龙 ==
[[File:Evt space dragon blue.png|450px|thumb|Shard; can be reanimated]]
{{expansion|anr}}
{{ruby|裂爪龙|Shard}} is a guardian that fights identically to the Ether Drake. She appears upon the conclusion of the {{icon|Archaeology Site}} ''[[Kleptomaniac Rats]]'' Archaeology Site excavation. 

If the Relic World is colonized, Shard will destroy the colony in two years if she's not defeated.

As the excavation already requires claiming the system, the starbase can be upgraded into a bastion citadel in preparation for the fight. Alternatively the final Chapter of the site can be delayed to better prepare technologically.

If Shard spawns adjacent to a [[Fallen Empire]], the Empire will send a fleet to destroy her, rendering the Rubricator unobtainable.

Defeating her grants the [[File:R rubricator.png|24px|link=Rubricator]] Rubricator Relic.

== 天龙 ==
[[File:Evt here be dragons.png|450px|thumb|Sky Dragon; can be reanimated]]
{{expansion|aqu}}
All empires with the {{iconify|Here Be Dragons}} origin will start the game with a {{ruby|天龙|Sky Dragon}} guardian. The guardian is allied with the owner of its system and can only be attacked by empires who are at war with the system owner.

Between 6.5 and 13.5 years after the the game has started the owner of the system will get a notification that the Sky Dragon is hungry and be given the option to let it land on the capital, refuse or observe.
* If refused the Sky Dragon will kill 2 pops and add two blockers on the capital.
* If observing the Sky Dragon will kill 1 pop and then feed.
* Allowing it to land costs 75 {{iconify|Influence}} and the Sky Dragon will feed.

Feeding the Sky Dragon takes 14-16 years, during which the capital will gain the [[File:D landed dragon.png|link=Planetary features#Feeding Dragon|24px]] Feeding Dragon planetary feature. When feeding is complete the empire will be given a reward to choose between a small amount of {{iconify|Research}} or 1000 {{iconify|Energy}} and 100 {{iconify|Exotic Gases}}. The Sky Dragon will not protect the system while feeding but if another empire attempts to invade the planet the guardian will cancel feeding and protect the system.

If the system owner researches at least 2 {{iconify|Society}} and 2 {{iconify|Engineering}} technologies during the first 13-49 years it will gain the option to issue one of two special projects:
* Remote Dragon Scanning special project grants a moderate amount of {{iconify|Society}} research.
* Dragon Specimen Gathering special project brings the following outcomes:
** 30% chance the science ship and scientist are destroyed and the project can be attempted again with a different outcome
** 55% chance the project can be attempted again with a different outcome
** 15% chance the project succeeds and the empire will unlock the next {{icon|Ceramo-Metal Materials|24px}}{{icon|Plasteel Materials|24px}}{{icon|Durasteel Materials|24px}}{{icon|Neutronium Materials|24px}} armor technology.
** If the project is attempted a second time there is a 75% chance the Sky Dragon will kill 2 pops and add two blockers on the capital. The chance is reduced to 25% if the dragon was fed. If this second attempt is successful, gain 50% of the science cost for the next {{icon|Ceramo-Metal Materials|24px}}{{icon|Plasteel Materials|24px}}{{icon|Durasteel Materials|24px}}{{icon|Neutronium Materials|24px}} armor technology instead of 100%.

After either special project has completed and the empire has established communications with at least 70% of the galaxy a first contact will be established with the Sky Dragon. Finishing the first contact grants 150 {{iconify|Influence}} and an increased amount of {{iconify|Unity}}.

After establishing first contact with the Sky Dragon, and picking 6 ascension perks, or 4 ascension perks including a phase 2 [[Population modification#Ascension paths|ascension path]] perk, the guardian will ask the empire to help raise its children. Refusing will grant 500 {{iconify|Influence}} but the Sky Dragon will disappear. If the offer is accepted the empire will gain control of Sky Dragon and unlock the [[File:Sb dragon hatchery.png|24px]] Dragon Hatchery starbase building.

An empire that kills the Sky Dragon will gain access to the {{iconify|Artificial Dragonscales|24px}} research option. If the technology has already been obtained from the Ether Drake it will instead grant 100-4000 {{iconify|Minerals}} and 1000-100000 {{iconify|Society}} research. If an Admiral was leading the fleet that defeated it, it will gain the {{icon|dragonslayer}} Dragonslayer trait.

The Sky Dragon uses only energy weapons and armor and as a result ships equipped with shields and energy weapons are the ideal counter.
