Lighthouse


 * “The lighthouse is the centre of all your battles. All information is gathered and all commands are given from here."


 * -Lero-Ro to his Light Bearer trainees

A Lighthouse is an item used by Light Bearers. It is a giant cube which comes in varying colours. Like Armour Inventory, Arms Inventory, Pockets and so on, it has "visible" and "invisible" modes.

Basic Functions
A Lighthouse is also a container which can be used to store items.

A Lighthouse is capable of providing certain amount of information of its' surroundings like visual displays, audio feedback and so on. The Lighthouse also comes with a keyboard which is likely used for accessing its interface, issuing commands, relaying information to another Lightbearer and deploying functions.

A Lighthouse has a loudspeaker function and it can create light.

A Lighthouse is also capable of connecting to a Scout's Observer. These Observers will provide it with more detailed visual information which Light Bearers use to analyse and coordinate their team. Some Lighthouses can also be used as an Observer but this reduces its mobility, as well as making it harder to handle.

A Lighthouse is capable of recording the total amount Shinsoo used by a person, during a battle. The highest figure ever recorded was Shinsoo exceeding 9000 rooms, manipulated by Enryu.

Also, the Lighthouse has a feature which can adjust and guide the trajectory of the spear, enabling Spear Bearers to throw it tens of kilometers away.

Deploying a Lighthouse in its original form
It can be used as in its original form which is a giant cube, to aid in information gathering as it's still capable of transmitting information to other connected Lighthouses.

As the Light Bearer walks around an area to gather information, he must use Shinsoo to make it float. The purity of Suspendium used in creating the Lighthouse is very low, so it is incapable of floating in high Shinsoo density/viscosity. If the Lighthouse falls outside the range of Shinsoo he can manipulate, it will fall. It's unknown why low purity of Suspendium is used but the Lighthouse stores many items like cubes, keyboards, screens and so on, so its weight might require a really high grade of Suspendium to make it float.

Battle Command Centre
When it is set up by the Light Bearer, it can be used as a battle command centre. Inside the battle command centre, the small cubes will float in Shinsoo. It's unknown if these small cubes are made of high grade Suspendium or if the Light Bearer must use Shinsoo to make them float. To connect a cube, the Light Bearer must physically move it so it will connect and merge with another cube, to form a larger cube.

One of these cubes is a search cube and when connected provides a search window. Through this window, one can then access the "Intelligence Network" containing profiles of many famous individuals and perhaps other types of information as well (Ch 32). It is possible other cubes may provide other functions as well.

A Lighthouse can function by itself or it can be connected with other battle command centres and deployed Lighthouses(original form), to form a network. And through all the visual input gathered by all these Light Houses, each Light Bearer will be able to receive certain amounts of visual-audio and other types of data in areas occupied by Light Bearers. And even if a Light Bearer is controlling the Light House in its' original form(a giant cube), the other parts of the network will still receive visual and other information. But if the Light House has fallen, it will be disconnected from the other Light Houses and they will receive no information about that area.
