	==Description==		==Description==
−	Another of the [[Word of Blake]]'s [[Celestial series]] [[OmniMech]]s, the '''''Deva''''' (named for [[w:Deva (Hinduism)|celestial beings]] from the Hindu belief system) also makes extensive use of new technologies. It is built with a [[light fusion engine]], a [[Heavy-Duty Gyro|heavy-duty gyro]] that can take half again as much punishment as its standard counterpart, and the [[small cockpit]] common to all of the Celestials. All of these brand new pieces make the [[Endo Steel]] frame they are assembled on seem normal by comparison. The tough [['Mech]] is protected by thirteen and a half tons of standard armor. It also uses the [[C3i Computer]] ubiquitous to the Celestials.	+	Another of the [[Word of Blake]]'s [[Celestial series]] [[OmniMech]]s, the ''Deva'' (named for celestial beings from the Hindu belief system) also makes extensive use of new technologies.

−	The Invictus model makes good use of its [[C3i Computer]] with a [[Gauss rifle]] and a trio of [[Light PPC]]s. Obviously meant as a direct-fire support model, the inclusion of the [[Retractable Blade]] is somewhat confusing to outsiders, as is the paltry ton of ammunition devoted to the design's main gun. The 'Mech shields its [[Manei Domini]] pilot from the potentially dangerous [[Gauss rifle]] with [[CASE]] in its right side.	+	The Invictus model makes good use of its [[C3i Computer]] with a [[Gauss Rifle]] and a trio of [[Light PPC]]s.

−	*; Alternate Configuration B (''Infernus'') : Meant to stay a good distance back from enemy units, the ''Deva'' B carries an [[ER PPC]] in each arm. The ''Infernus'' adds five heat sinks, leaving the [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] with no real heat concerns. Adding to that, a [[Targeting Computer]] makes the cannons even more accurate. A pair of [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s that also benefit from the advanced computer can be utilized should an enemy get within range.

−	*; Alternate Configuration C (''Comminus'') : The ''Comminus'' variant is designed to mix it up close to enemies, a task it is aided in by the mobility that [[jump jet]]s give it. An [[Ultra Autocannon/20]] is still the most powerful gun in the [[Inner Sphere]]'s arsenal. A three-ton, CASE-protected ammunition bin keeps it in supply, though a MechWarrior should not waste shots. For that, he or she can utilize the trio of ER Medium Laser and the single ER Small, partly cooled by two extra double heat sinks.

−	*; Alternate Configuration D (''Luminos'') : This configuration has enough weapons to feel at home at range or up close. Like the ''Comminus'' variant, it mounts enough jump jets to leap up to 120 meters at a time. For long-range combat, the ''Deva'' D mounts a [[Heavy PPC]]. In close, two ER Mediums and four Medium Pulse Lasers can quickly disable an opponent.

Similar to the ''Invictus'' variant, the ''Eminus'' mounts four Light PPCs and only carries eight rounds for its largest gun.

−	*; Alternate Configuration S (''Caelestis'') : Using a pair of [[Binary Laser Cannon]]s mated to an advanced [[Targeting Computer]], this configuration of the ''Deva'' is a deadly sniper. For close in protection the ''Caelestis'' mounts an [[ER Small Laser]]. A [[Laser Anti-Missile System]] defends against warheads, while a [[Supercharger]] allows it to temporarily boost its speed to nearly 84 km/h.

−	*; Alternate Configuration U (''Exanimus'') : This variant is equipped with four [[UMU]]s that allow it to move through the water at 46 km/h. To make the best use of this speed, the ''Deva Exanimus'' carries a pair of [[LRT-15]]s in one arm and a trio of [[ER Medium Laser]]s in the other.
