The bright star of the Solomon system lay near the horizon, slowly dipping down beneath the crest of distant mountains, sending shades of luminous gold, brilliant pink and streaks of green across the evening sky, reflecting off the glass towers of Ipsum.
In Hyperion’s capital city, things were relatively normal. It was an evening like any other; Gragachi and Kyrema milling about amongst the street-gardens, Humans and Kraians heading to their homes to relax, Jazekii returning to their palaces on the fringes of the city, and the whole mix of alien races spilling out into the clubs and restaurants and bars as the nightlife of Ipsum began in full swing.
But as the stars began twinkling into existence in the night sky, one by one, those who looked up to admire them could not help but remember the turmoil faced by those more distant and less fortunate. Across the stars, war with the Colossus still brewed, and the systems of the Collective, protected by the Vanguard, grew fewer in number as the Colossus overwhelmed and occupied and conquered.
But those on Hyperion, those in Solomon, were safe.
For the time being.

* * *
A thousand years from now, we witness the rise and potential fall of the Collective; an alliance of alien races, banded together to battle the perils of scarcity and need. Technologically advanced and living in a new age of enlightenment, the Collective enjoyed a utopian existence for thousands of years. The Vanguard, the Collective’s protective forces, faced little challenge for eons.
Recently, an army, operating out of the darkness of interstellar space, has cropped up to threaten the Collective. This army, deemed the Colossus, draws its resources from under the Collective’s very nose, and seems to grow with each day. The Colossus strikes irregularly, conquering systems and cutting them off from the rest of the Collective.
Their intentions unknown, and with the the Vanguard’s forces waning, the Collective has seen fit to withdraw their forces inward and cut off the bridges that link systems. The Collective’s capital system, Solomon, now isolated, sits and waits as the Vanguard brainstorms its next move… or as the Colossus continues edging ever closer.
* * *
Players may RP in one of several factions and as one of several alien races. The list is limited for now but will expand as the game does.
Your goal as an RPer is whatever you choose - are you a Collective citizen, biding your time until the Colossus shows up? Perhaps a member of the Vanguard, ready to strike out at the Colossus wherever needed? Or are you a simple trader of the Tyche Concord, getting mixed up in a war that is not your own? The choice is yours and where this adventure takes you is in your hands.
Remember to check the DATA FILES as they are updated for information on the Races, Technology, Factions, etc. of the universe.

Alien Races
Humans
In 2247, the Human race encountered the Collective after the latter discovered the former through use of an interstellar probe. Many Humans did not see eye-to-eye with the ideals of the Collective, but a power move by Martian settlers compounded a Human-Collective deal in which the majority of the Sol system was ceded to the Collective as Mars became the new capital of the Sol system. Earth became an exile world, but later joined the Tyche Concord. The Sol system has since prospered. Humans are known as very pertinent and hard-working builders by other alien races, and they have spread quickly both across the various worlds of the Collective - influentially, as well.
Kyrema
The Kyrema, hailing from Azïc, are a spindly and delicate race. They have four dark eyes and a sharp, snouted head, with four thin arms sprouting from their lean, curvy body, and similarly two long, thin legs. They are oft regarded as wise but sometimes cynical scholars and explorers. They care little for family matters and more about making new discoveries. One of the two founding races of the Collective, along with the Krai.
Krai
Collais is the home of the Krai. The Krai themselves are large, muscled, and fierce-looking. Like Humans, they possess two arms and legs, though their large bodies are more barrel-chested and their heads are almost dragon-like in appearance. Their skin is course and rough, though hairless, and two fibrous horns sprout from the back of their head. They are often clad in decadent robes. Despite their intimidating appearance, the Krai are peacemakers, and enjoy taking time for leisure. They made an alliance with the Kyrema early in their spacefaring history, and so the Collective was born.
Jazekii
The Jazekii are easily the Collective’s physically largest race. Similar in build to the Krai, but larger, they, too, have two arms and legs and are very large and muscled, due to the high gravity of their homeworld of Karazn. Their fingers and toes are clawed, and their face is flat, almost pug-like, with a stout nose and a jowled mouth. Smaller horns and hair decorate the back of their heads. The Jazekii familial system is based in large clans, living together in extravagant palaces on the outskirts of the Collective’s cities. Once warlike, the Jazekii have found no need for war in hundreds of years, as they have prospered under the combined might of the Collective.
Semrians
Hailing from the distant planet of Tarlata are the Semrians - a lithe, thin race of serpent-like aliens. Their fur-covered bodies are long and flexible, and their four arms are more bony and rigid, extending from the sides of their bodies. They forgo legs, and instead slither like snakes with their muscled torso upright, but with the exception of having two tail-ends rather than one. The two tails can be similarly flexed, giving the Semrians extra height if need be. Their mouths are beaked, sitting below two beady eyes, and two large, backswept catlike ears behind their head. Semrians are often regarded as philosophers and monks due to their solitary and scholarly nature.
Sorgati
On average about five feet tall when upright, the Sorgati have four identical limbs set in two pairs at either end of their rectangular body. Each limb can be used as either a leg or arm when called upon. The “head,” if one can call it that, is set in the center of the torso with three gemstone like eyes set equidistant around a circular mouth. The mouth itself works double duty as nutrient intake and a chemical analysis organ. Small overlapping scales cover the Sorgati’s bodies. They come in a dizzying array of colors and are often a point of pride and fashion. The Sorgati are quite often artists or designers. Everyone seems to find their works beautiful regardless of their species. The home planet of the Sorgati is Bavi'ka.
Tervani
The three-eyed Tervah are a noble, hardy race of explorers who have conquered many a system, stretching out from their homeworld of Ulavara. Other races have jokingly referred to the Tervah as “wet Humans” and to Humans as “dry Tervah” due to an overall similar figure. Standing around the same height of the average Human, the straight-backed Tervah have gilled necks and webbed fingers and toes, owing from an aquatic heritage. A stout muzzle ends in a flat nose and a set of thin lips. On the crown of their head and their shoulders reside a plumage of feather-like sensory organs.
Viveni
The Viveni are the newest race to enter the Collective. Standing at about three feet, they most resemble ants or shrimp - four spindly legs hold up a long, curved body, with two similarly spindly arms protruding, and ending in a long, mouthy head, with two small eyes resting above. Two antennae are backswept and usually rest on their back, only perking up and releasing pheromones during conversation. The Viveni converse using aural sounds to deliver basic speech but release pheromones to provide certain contexts. Before joining the Collective, the Viveni fought massive, bloody wars with one another, but sought peace after being discovered by the Collective, which they view as an honoured mediator.
* * *
Factions & Organizations
The Collective
The foremost influential power in the galaxy, the seed colonies of the Collective span a great area of the Milky Way. Having gathered new races into its ranks, the Collective has conquered not these races, but these races have worked together to conquer scarcity. Putting illustrious technology and prowess to work, the citizens of the Collective have built up habitable worlds and created self-sustaining systems on a galactic scale. Food, water, shelter, power, entertainment, connectivity and all else is readily available to those under the Collective’s umbrella.
Each citizen of the Collective is implanted with neural nanotechnology, enabling connectivity to the Collective’s Neural Supernetwork, which allows for quick and easy exchange of data and information between peers. This technology forms the basis for Collective society, as it allows each individual to upload and download knowledge as they need, as well as allow for a decentralized government in the form of a pure, direct democracy (though sometimes Ministers are appointed by the Citizenry in the case of disputes). Crime is also regulated through this technology; though the Collective’s laws are few in number, and serve only to protect others from harm or wrongdoing, the laws are enforced directly. Though simply thinking about committing a crime does not constitute a criminal charge, seriously considering or taking action to commit a crime do result in warnings and criminal charges, though charges often result in Merit reductions or, in the worst case, rehabilitation.
Merit is the Collective’s system of currency, or lack thereof. In the Collective’s world of post-scarcity, there is no need to pay for belongings, food, water, shelter, et cetera. Those can all be provided for the Collective Citizen in any justifiable number as long as said citizen has a requisite level of Merit (a base level is provided to each Citizen so that they are able to live rather comfortably). Merit is gained through acts which benefit Collective society, from doing good deeds that help other Citizens, to baking muffins for public consumption, to creating a statue for public display, to saving the lives of those caught in a building fire. Merit is not lost through obtaining goods, and is therefore not a currency. Gaining Merit only results in being able to access a higher standard and quality of non-essential goods. Merit is only lost through criminal actions.
In addition to the Neural Supernetwork (the Neuranet), nanotechnology makes itself apparent in almost all corners of Collective life, from carpet-cleaning to printing parts for starships. The Collective also makes use of benevolent AI that assist them in daily life in numerous scopes of work, home life or otherwise, in exchange for technological freedom. This symbiotic relationship is upheld, and so the Collective continues to prosper.
As the cherry on top, the Collective practices genetic modification. Through gene editing, the Collective Citizenry is free of disease, are adaptable to a wide range of climates, pressures and atmospheres, and have ‘cured’ aging - the Citizens of the Collective do not age past their early adulthood, and thus live forever, unless killed by other means.
The Vanguard
The Vanguard makes up the Collective’s police, military, and specialists. It is divided into several branches:
Peacekeepers - Main public police force of the Collective.
Tacticians - High-ranking Officers within the military that supply strategic knowledge.
Combatants - Main fighting forces of the Vanguard. Soldiers, Warlocks, Warriors.
Air Combatants - The Air-Force division of the Combatants.
Sea Combatants - The Naval equivalent of the Combatants.
Sentinels - Central Espionage Division of the Vanguard. Infiltrators, Assassins, Spies.
Lifekeepers - Doctors, Surgeons, Medical Officers and Search and Rescue Teams make up the Lifekeepers.
Practitioners - Similar to Advisors, but continually practice in their individual fields within the Vanguard as military personnel.
Advisors - Non-military personnel that bring auxiliary expertise to the Vanguard; Medical, Physical, Chemical, Engineering, et cetera.
Consulars - Citizenry-appointed regulators that assure the input of the Citizenry is made clear to the Vanguard, specifically the Tacticians and Advisors.
Star Guardians - The space forces of the Vanguard. Starship pilots and Combatants trained specifically for space combat. Were originally more like a Coast-Guard-type organization - they have now been militarized after the threat of the Colossus arose.
The Exile Worlds
(Not Currently Playable.)
Not all remain satisfied with the Collective. When one wishes to leave, their neural implants are deactivated and they have a choice of where to go. The exile worlds are a plethora of planets still within Collective space but not controlled by the Collective. They have free reign, and are politically diverse, though they do not have the resources of the Collective. Collective Citizens who wish to leave may choose whichever exile world they want to start anew on. Those wishing to leave the exile worlds and join (or re-join) the Collective are only accepted under a specific set of circumstances.
The Tyche Concord
The Tyche Concord is an alliance of exile worlds that are partnered with the Collective instead of being separated from them. The Concord regulates trade between the two powers; the Collective gains access to resources only produced by members of the Concord, and in return the Concord gains access to Collective space and technology. The Tyche Concord is based, obviously, from Tyche, in the Solomon system, one orbital out from Hyperion.
The Colossus
(Not Currently Playable.)
The Colossus seems to have come from nowhere and everywhere at once. It is a mysterious army, using a mix of old Collective materiel, stolen new technology, and unknown alien ships. Striking out from the interstellar space between Collective systems, they strong-arm and overwhelm the Vanguard military presence and conquer systems, cutting them off from the rest of the Collective. Their motives are unknown.

Spacecraft & Vehicles
Civilian Vehicles
Skybus A hovering vehicle designed to transport Collective citizens wherever they wish to go. They are fully autonomous and self-driving, and use antigrav technology to fly in designated sky-lanes to free up ground traffic for pedestrians. Skybuses come in a variety of sizes and styles, from two-seaters to large carriers for dozens of people, and from economical, bulky designs to sleek, whatever a citizens needs or wants at any given time. Skybuses or other hovering vehicles are not able to be owned by Collective citizens and are strictly for public use.
Hovercars, wheeled vehicles and other transport vehicles The Tyche Concord has access to several different forms of transportation, engineered by different alien races. Hovering vehicles are rarer in the Tyche Concord, though some do exist on the wealthier worlds like Tyche and Earth.
Military Vehicles
Air
Vanguard Private Manufacturing (VPM) Atmospheric Strike Fighter #74 (ASF74) A fast, heavily armed strike fighter used by the Vanguard. Carries plasma guns, propellant-based projectile guns, and micronized missile launchers, as well as flares.
Sea
None yet.
Land
Tambin Armory (TAARM) Heavy Siege Craft Model 56 (HSC56) A towering tank-like vehicle boasting a compliment of serious armament, including a heavy railgun, surface-to-air missiles, artillery cannons and point-defense guns.
VPM Hovering Armored Strike Tank #32 (HAST32) The Vanguard's light battle tank of choice. THis hovering vehicle can zip around fairly fast and carries a powerful main gun as well as antipersonnel lasers.
Oskana Metalwork Industries (OMI) Designation 86 Tactical Scout Vehicle (D86 TSV) A six-wheeled scout vehicle used to make like probing pushes into enemy territory before quickly retreating. Armed with an anti-air cannon as well as two side-gunner positions with antipersonnel guns.
VPM Light Scout Vehicle #26 (LSV26) A two person hovering scout car. It is as quick as it is small and relatively unarmored. It does not possess any weaponry.
Ship Appearance: The Epsilon-Class most closely resembled a finless shark. Its sleek exterior is dotted by docking bays for shuttles and dropships, as well as weapons emplacements and reaction control thrusters. It has four main engines - two in front and two in back - which utilize matter-antimatter annihilation to produce thrust. Similar to the engine placements, four super-heavy laser emplacements on either end are used as primary weapons, and can easily cut smaller ships to pieces.
Other: The Epsilon-Class is the primary battleship of the Vanguard Star Guardians. It has run many a mission and has seen plenty of use in both offensive and defensive combat scenarios.
Feel free to create your own using the skeleton below. No starfighters, however. They don't exist in this universe.

Technology
Antigravity
The Collective has mastered the manipulation of gravity through Dark Energy, and so has become able to create localized gravity fields wherever the need arises. This technology is usually used in starships, in drones and in hovering vehicles.
Robotics, Drones & AI
Drones, robots and AI are widespread in the Collective. Unmanned drones assist the Vanguard in every theatre of combat - from platoons of AI-controlled robots on the ground to drone ships in space. Additionally, AI and robots assist their flesh-and-blood counterparts in all aspects of life. Many citizens of the collective employ use of drones to aid them in daily tasks - cleaning the furniture, carrying boxes or luggage, et cetera. AI are often seen in more official positions, siphoning through and compiling data in return for free will. Drones and robots take many forms, but realistic androids or robotic forms resembling a certain alien race are not often one of them. Many use antigravity technology to get around.
The Tyche Concord and Exile worlds also sees use of robotics, though at a more primitive level. The Collective does not usually trade in robotics, so those in the Concord are left to engineer their own. Some AI are also present in the Tyche Concord.
Cybernetics
Cybernetics come in a plethora of uses, styles and enhancements, though they are few and far between in the common Collective Citizenry. Only the Vanguard see extensive use of Cybernetics, as standard Collective neural implants can do almost anything any extraneous cybernetics can do.
Nanotechnology
Nanotechnology is everywhere in the Collective. Nanotechnology is used to print parts in factories, to assist in cleaning and sanitation, et cetera. It also has applications in medicine and treating whatever disease may arise.
A common use of nanotechnology is though SuperForm - a nanometal that can change its shape and density to whatever is required of it. It is used in armor plating, spacesuit repair functions, utility knives, multitools, and more.
Neuranet Technology
The Collective Citizenry's neural implants are multitools themselves. They allow for augmented reality without any ocular cybernetics, instant translation of alien languages, wordless and wireless communication with anyone anywhere in Collective space (through use of Nexuses) as well as data exchange with peers, such as knowledge, skills, and memories. Think of it like a hyper-advanced smartphone, but in your head.
Neural implants connect to routers placed anywhere and everywhere the Collective occupies in order to ensure constant connectivity to the neuranet. The routers then connect to large Nexuses, which use wormhole technology to link to other Nexuses in other systems. Nexuses, like routers, are placed anywhere and everywhere (even on starships).
Collective starships use antimatter to power their engines, with metallic hydrogen as backup. Metallic hydrogen is used in Collective spacecraft reaction control thrusters.
XC-Drives are starship FTL drives that work on the Alcubierre warp principle - spacetime in front of the ship is compacted and spacetime behind the ship is expanded, creating a warp bubble travelling at thousands of times the speed of light, within which the starship rests. XC-Drives are used for in-system travel and to travel to frontier colonies.
Bridges
To travel from system to system, the collective use Bridges (wormholes, basically) stationed at specific orbits within systems. Linked together, the systems and the bridges within them form a sort of interstellar highway.
