The Obelisk is a flat square construct centered round a crystal that bears a great resemblance Able to those mounted within the remain dormant beneath [[MonolithTomb World]]. This allows them to use s for millions of years, when awakened by their Necron creators the Obelisk rises from the earth and levels out far above the surface, blasting enemy aircraft out of the devastating sky with its [[Particle WhipTesla Sphere]] in their primary role as Monolith escort.
