The Nyarlathotep was a remnant of the Shivan fleet that attacked the Ancients. It was found in a derelict state in subspace and transferred to Tau Sigma Station for research. Weeks later, the Shivans hidden inside in stasis awoke and took over the ship. The Nyarlathotep then led a Shivan fleet across GTVA space in an attempt to link up with the Sathanes in Capella using the Shivan Knossos. A Terran corvette loaded with explosives rammed and destroyed the vessel at the last moment, preventing the main Shivan fleet from reaching Vega.
