Arks of Omen are Failbaddon's new copeship needed to aid his faltering Black Crusade after he raged-quit and yeeted his last remaining (And priceless!) Blackstone Fortress on Cadia. These things were for all intents and purposes, Space Hulks. Literally, that's what they are. Except, rather than being filled with mushrooms and cockroaches, they are now filled with literal edgelords.

Overview
Being nothing more than a colossal Black Legion void craft, they were unleashed to reinforce the Black Legion's Balefleets and seize the Nachmund Gauntlet from the Imperium.
Each Ark of Omen is heavily weaponised and augmented with a piece of Vashtorr's own fleshmetal, granting its master as much control over the craft as any other voidship could offer. Abaddon the Despoiler awards them to a favoured Warband – seeded, naturally, with loyal enforcers and informants – and he also dispatches the Arks to claim artefacts of mysterious provenance. It is not yet clear what the Despoiler's ultimate plan is for these vast warships and the artefacts they seek, because like all good prophecies, the one Abaddon follows is vague and could mean a number of different things. .
