Universe Factions:
Dawn of Light:
Tyrannical theocracy from the Delta quadrant. The first intergalactic expedition from Earth,
they had a failure in communications with Earth Prime and believed they had
been left to die. Extremely religious
zealots and intolerant of other groups.
They take on a conquer and convert style warfare and have no qualms
about killing any that don’t believe in their creed.
Dusk Haven:
Technocrats from the Epsilon quadrant.
The second intergalactic expedition from Earth. They left Earth with a much higher level of
technology than the Dawn of Light. They believe in transforming humanity
through superior technology. They attach
cybernetic enhancements to the point of unrecognizable humanity. Rumors of hive mind development.
Earth Prime:
A failing civilization from Earth in the Alpha quadrant. The remnants of earth have been torn apart
but inner conflict due to overpopulation and loss of resources. Resorted to raiding travel lines between
other factions for resources. Their
space fleet consists of stolen ships patched together from different parts.
Agents of Entropy:
A shadow group from Earth Prime that is bent on destroying all of
humanity. They see Earth Prime as a
failure to the galaxy and want to stop humanity from spreading its failure
throughout the universe. Late in the
game we learn they are being manipulated by alien/demons from an alternate
dimension.
Main Character:
Lieutenant Arden:
Lt. Arden stood out among the other students at the Dawn of Light
Academy on their home planet Solus as a motivated and by the book soldier. Being nephew to a Grand Admiral didn’t hurt
either. He achieved the rank Luietenant
straight out of academy and was being groomed by Papal Guard to rise through
the ranks. It wasn’t until he fell into a forbidden love with a priestess that
he realized the fascist and dominating nature of the world he had been brought
into. When his tryst is discovered by
his best friend and reported to the Papal Guard they decide to hush it up, but
to make sure Arden gets the point they hold a trial and execution of the
priestess in front of his eyes. After
this Lt. Arden flees Solus and ends up at the dingy space pirate outpost,
Tortuga 5. After months of drinking away
his pain he decides that the only thing left to do is seek vengeance on the
empire he once believed in. But first,
he needed a ship and a crew.
