If the target empire is destroyed or changes policy on its own the task is canceled without any effect on opinion. However failing the task by not completing it in time gives greater opinion penalties. Fulfilling a task grants a decaying +100 opinion while refusing gives a minor −25 opinion. Tasks can only be given to player empires. Fortunately only empires you rivaled can be picked as targets. Tasks are missions to go to war against another empire within 20 years to fulfill the goals of a Fallen Empire in exchange for greatly increased opinion and an increased chance of receiving gifts. Requests are not available if at war or the empire is Genocidal. Accepting a request grants a decaying +100 opinion while refusing gives a decaying −50 opinion.

There are 4 types of Fallen Empires, 5 with the Synthetic Dawn DLC, and only one of each type can exist in a game. Any empire can make claims on a Fallen Empire system regardless of Ethics or their War Philosophy policy. When engaging in a conflict with them, it is essential that an empire be fully prepared to deal with the consequences and be prepared to follow through on any demands made. It is impossible to vassalize a Fallen Empire in any way. Fallen Empires use a unique ship and station appearance which is exclusive to them there are visual variants of this style and different weapon and component selections for each type of Fallen Empire, but the general number of slots is about equal. They always start with two fleets of around 40k-150k Fleet Power and can obtain additional fleets through events. Unlike normal empires, a Fallen Empire is fully developed at the start of the game, and due to their extremely large and powerful fleets they should not be provoked until your fleet strength and technology is comparable.
