My Universe
« on: June 21, 2012, 01:40:47 PM »
This Thread is about my universe that I've been designing since I was 6. It's something that has a lot of depth that I'm constantly improving on, but I want to post it somewhere and my journal doesn't seem like the right place to post it. So here is this thread!

A brief History and explanation of the universe: THIS IS CURRENTLY OUTDATED, PLEASE IGNORE THIS ARTICLE
Spoiler for Hidden:
  The first thing is that this world is set in the future. A future with a quite a lot of different races. The Revice, were humans, the reason The Revice are called that was because the army on earth was known as "Revice", just a cool name, but when humanity first discovered long distance space travel due to space distortion, they met another race called Atos or "The union". Atos resemble the Covenant from the halo universe in a lot of ways, they are a collaboration of many different alien species under one empire (I will go into the species later). Anyway, the Atos were extremely powerful compared to humanity and immediately went to war with humanity, humans went into many projects including the famed "Final Hope" project which was to build a union of super strong soldiers to fight off the Atos (Like Space Marines or Spartans). However, the 30,000 soldiers of the Final Hope were moved to one of the Atos's home worlds to capture one of their leaders, this turned out to be a trick put on by the Atos and the Atos had used that planet as a decoy. An entire invasion force was brought onto earth and earth and other human colonies were systematically destroyed, the only survivors of humanity were people of the far off worlds and the final hope themselves, these people were all part of the army. Humanity eventually regrouped and became extremely strong, but as all civilian life was destroyed, humans were no longer called humans but were now called "The Revice".

  After The Revice regrouped and became strong, they discovered four other races besides the Atos. The Atos were a collaboration of different alien species, some included Scythers, little lizard things with blades as arms, troopers, lizard like things that were anthro, strikers, more mammal and aggressive then troopers, Champions, 4 armed massive thick skinned creatures and Bounty hunters, pretty much living armour that are gigantic and extremely powerful. Another race that was discovered was the Zarge, the Zarge were a race of numerous numbers that were a race of babarians and destruction and chaos, they loved battle and fought as much as they could. Zarge have a very strong first for technology in order to increase their dominance in the galaxy, without the proper tools and intellect to design technology themselves they often study the technology of other races they recently destroyed. Another race is the Sentinels, the sentinels are living machines that resemble a mix between C-3PO and terminators, they are heavily equipped with weapons and were created by unknown origins, their goals seem to be to only destroy all sentient life. The fourth race discovered was the Gymebots (pronounced "Gamebots"), thought to be the first species of the galaxy, they are known to be created of a substance made of pure concentrated energy, all their weapons and material are made of the same stuff. Their single purpose is to reproduce and gain a greater survival for their species, they reproduce however by converting other races into energy. When a Gymebot dies it explodes into a massive amount of energy which converts mass around the area to energy sometimes creating more Gymebots around the area, making this race almost impossible to kill. The last race humans discovered at this time was the Blue Cross, pretty much humans that lived elsewhere, humanoid aliens.

  The Blue Cross heard of an invasion fleet by the Sentinels on their home world Crimson. The army was so massive that the sentinels would almost certainly destroy the entire Blue Cross race. The Blue Cross in an act of desperation looked into make a group of super soldiers, unlike the universe has ever seen, these soldiers would outmatch the Final Hope made by the Revice and would definitely outmatch the New Hope the Revice made (super soldiers made by a cheaper but less effective method). The Blue Cross created the 151 Exterminators, the strongest force ever known to exist in the galaxy. These 151 people did not age, they were immune to disease and they were extremely efficient killers. The exterminators would be the undoing of Blue Cross as the exterminated completely devastated their own creators along with the entire sentinel invasion force. The Sentinels survived but the Blue Cross was scattered and created the new race known as "the Black Elegance". The exterminators would destroy everyone in their way, completely demolishing anyone who stood in their way, which seemed to be everyone because their only goal was destruction. This is now where the story begins...

  A recruit in the Revice called Alexander and another one called sniper, both went under experimental surgeries to stop aging, this succeeded immensely. Alexander, who was a very strong guy who liked using a double sided axe in battle, and Sniper, a guy who was insanely accurate and never once missed a shot, became good friends and served on a space craft with final hope soldiers known as the "Limotarsa". The Limotarsa found it's way being invaded by the 151 exterminators and almost all people on board were killed. However, during this rampage Exterminator 2: Brock, had been planning a revolution against the exterminators leader: Sam, Brock eventually would shoot Sam in the back of the head causing a great civil war between the exterminators and almost in a few days all the exterminators but Sam, Brock and a guy called Vran, were killed. This marks the end of the exterminator rampage but Sam eventually agreed to serve for the Revice and Alexander and Sniper became a group and our main protagonists. They had many adventures in this universe, but going through all of them will take way too long, so lets just say they met a guy called "Silver Brain" who used two high intensity lasers to cut things in half. Sam had a son called Oscar and Silver Brain had a son he called Silver Wing, unfortunately, in an epic battle between Sam and Brock, both ended up dying, and thus is the end of the first chapter of the story, the Sam Chronicles.

  However, Oscar had the genes of the exterminators and had the same attributes as them, and he grew up with Sniper and Alexander and Silver Wing and they had many adventures, silver brain died of old age. On a expedition to a planet from the Zarge, they found destroyed a race known as the "Grechin" which were extraordinary cultivators of extremely sophisticated and expert jets and space craft. The Zarge soon obtained one of the largest and most devastating fleets in the galaxy because of this and the Zarge eventually started taking over the entire galaxy. This was not very good for all the other races and soon enough all races were involved in a massive intergalactic war, known as the "Universal War". However, a major turning point in the universal war was when the Zarge discovered a planet full of an insect called "Skull beatles". These beatles were parasitic organisms that infected a host that grew more beatles, the host would then complete the actions of the queen of these beatles, however these beatles were relatively harmless. However, due to the radiation let out by the ships of the Zarge, these beatles mutated quickly and soon mutated to adapt to space and infect hosts much quicker, this is the creation of a completely new and devastating race, the Radio or "The Plague". Entire colonies of Zarge were infected within in days, other organic races began to be infected and soon the entire universal war was cut short as millions of people were turned against themselves as themselves in the plague. The only two races unaffected were the Gymebots and the Sentinels, the Gymebots decided that they would find a cure for the Skull beatle outbreak, but this left their defenses open and the Sentinels would attack the Gymebots. Thus ending the Universal War with the Sentinels as the victors.

  A recurring antagonist was Vran, an exterminator, Oscar had a son called Kyle and Oscar was killed by Vran. Kyle was special, he was stronger than his father and his grandfather combined, Kyle, as only 6 years old (with the help of Alexander, Sniper and the aging Silver Wing) sought out Vran to destroy him. At only the age of 10 he killed Vran (though Vran would later return as a cyborg). Kyle was known to be the most influencial human ever to exist, his words and actions brought the lingering human race to the greatest race ever known. Two extreme events happened during Kyle's life. Before these events silver Wing had a son called "Gold Wing", they recruited a person called "Silver Blade" into their ranks and another person was found called "Necromancer" who had two light saber like weapons. Sniper and Alexander were still alive. Eventually they found a guy called "Nightmare" who had been studying on how to open a portal to another dimension, so they eventually did, which started an event of unforeseen consequences.

  The new dimension was full of hostile life and properties that this universe had not seen, including factors of extreme energy, soon portal storms tore apart entire solar systems as various hostile life, dubbed "The Realm Creatures" destroyed everything. The new dimension was known as "The Realm". The Realm was a universe "above" our universe, our universe was tiny, young and inferior to the Realm, The Realm creatures had an unusual effect to be able to distort the physical properties of our universe such as space time, making them extremely powerful foes. The Radio had occupied about half the entire galaxy when The Realm portal storms and creatures greatly diminished that number. People argue whether, because of this, the introduction of the Realm was a good thing or a bad thing, either way it was entirely catastrophic for all species. Kyle and his team, depressed by what they had done to the universe, sought to bring back the universe to justice, for all of Kyles life he would find a way to close the gap between our universe and The Realm. However, 600 relics from the Realm made it into our universe, which were like accessories, these accessories gave the wearer specific abilities to modify the physical properties of the universe, however only one relic could be used for each wearer, these relics were called "The Elements". Once the wearer was fused with an Element it was impossible to remove unless the wearer was killed, Kyle was given the first Relic known as the "Jewel Crown" which gave Kyle the ability to form a special cybernetic suit around him at will, this suit had the ability to harness the power of "Dark Energy" which is energy that is always around the universe at all times. When Kyle harnessed the power of Dark Energy he could convert it into normal energy with lethal results. The elements were only known by the Revice and thanks to Kyle, and through Kyles leadership, the Revice obtained almost all the elements for their own people, the elements severe power and strategic use would eventually give the Revice a significant amount of dominance, spawning the Universal War II between all races.

  During the Universal War II to stop the exponential growth of the Revice, there was a lot of fighting and destruction. However, Kyle and his team eventually discovered an old ancient relic that was had been placed by the Realm before the Big Bang. This artifact was known as the Universal Cannon and had the ability to destroy the entire universe. The Revice were fearful that if this was put into the wrong hands (the universal cannon was about the size of a planet) the entire universe could be destroyed. The Universal War II eventually became only about the possession or destruction of the Universal Cannon, it was later discovered that this cannon could not be destroyed which only made the war worse. Kyle and his team managed to get inside the Universal Cannon where they discovered something startling, The Realm had actually created the universe we live in. Not only that, but the Universal cannon didn't actually come from the Realm, an entire civilization existed long before the big bang, this civilization was so advanced that eventually, a team of extremely smart cultists actually created the Universal Cannon and detonated it. Such few people would destroy the entire universe, however a side effect was found, the universe was not completely destroyed but made smaller, the smaller universe than expanded again, in a process we know as "The Big Bang". This the universe was created by the Realm and the universe as we know it was created by this Universal Cannon. Eventually Kyle had no choice, the Universal cannon could not be destroyed, but to avoid this process happening again Kyle, using all the energy he could from the Jewel Crown, sacrificed himself in order to teleport the Universal Cannon into The Realm, he then activated the cannon destroying most (not all) of the Realm. This fulfilled his dream Kyle had and his inspiration and leadership would stay with humanity forever, The Revice almost praised him as a god, for he was the person who was humanities salvation. During the Universal Cannon war, Sniper, a long time recurring character was killed, as was Silver wing. Alexander, Silver blade, Gold Wing, Necromancer and Nightmare all were still alive.

  Kyle had a son before he died, which he named Sam in honor of his grandfather, however Kyle never met his son. Sam was different then Oscar and Kyle and retained his exterminator instinct. Always angry at his father for never seeing him and for closing off most of the Realm from the material universe (making the elements completely powerless) he had secretly sought to undo everything Kyle had done. Sam eventually joined up with Alexander and others and had lots of adventures, Sams team never knew of Sams hidden desires. Sam eventually discovered that re-opening the Realm to full capacity would be impossible, he eventually discovered the remains of Crimson, the birth place of the exterminators. He had discovered how to remake the 151 Exterminators and he decided to do that secretly. Without his team or the Revice knowing, Sam created the Exterminators once more and became the leader of the new set of Exterminators. Sam betrayed his team and shot Gold Wing in the back, killing him, he eventually had a quest to regain the strength of the Exterminators and making them the most feared in the universe once more.

  In an epic battle between the Sam and Alexander, Silver blade, Necromancer and Nightmare, all three Necromancer, Nightmare and Silver blade were killed. Sam and Alexander fought it out, Alexander being the only recurring character in the whole universe. Eventually, to a battle I never wanted to end (I simulated the battle for almost 3 months) I decided to end it, Alexander would sacrifice himself to Kill Sam and they would both die. When they both died, this marked the end of the story and I no longer continued onto the future. Instead, I created different stories in the same universe, although none of the different stories I have ever created are as interesting as the main one. I was always a bit sad that I ended the story, but I didn't want to go back and the conclusion was quite good. This was the universe I created, through years of imagination, this is only the major details as well. This was my childhood.

Important things to note:
  • The Revice is humanity. They were given the full name "Revice" when earth was destroyed.
  • Darkons refer to fundamental space-time bending particles. When a darkon moves it emits dark energy and bends space-time.
  • The Realm refers to a larger  universe that, at one point, got connected to our universe. The residents of this universe are known as the Realm Creatures or just Creatures
  • The Races go as follow: The Revice, Sentinels, Atos, Zarge, Creatures, Blue Cross/Black Elegance, Gymebots (AKA Terronix) and The Radio.

Information about various forms of Faster Than Light Travel of different races within this universe

Spoiler for Hidden:
Darkons:
Spoiler for Hidden:
  Darkons are particles of dark matter. They were discovered by compacting atoms to such a degree that the atoms actually crushed apart releasing a series of never before seen particles known as Darkons. These Darkons are what comprise of Dark Matter, they have a very unique effect of distorting space-time. Darkons distort space-time through dark energy, every Darkon emits and reacts to dark energy similar to an electron and an electric field. Dark energy warps space time closer to the Darkon, creating a space-time shift. However, as most Darkons are inactive and stationary, no noticeable or observable effect occurs.

  This however changes when a Darkon accelerates, as the space-time shift is out of phase with the rest of the universe, creating an imbalance of space-time. This can be used for many reasons, for faster than light travel (explained later) or by using massively changing dark energy fields tearing targets apart (as weaponry). It has many other uses as well of course. As stated earlier, Darkons react to dark energy fields, every Darkon emits a dark energy field surrounding that particle, but the particle is also effected by other dark energy fields so that it moves. However, all Darkons are attempting to get a balance of dark energy fields, so any imbalance made by accelerating Darkons are soon "reset", despite this, many imbalances occur (explained further).

  Knowing this information, the development of Dark Energy Reactors became possible and beneficial. Dark Energy Reactors are made by compacting matter to such a degree that Darkons are released, the Darkons create varying dark energy fields that effect other Darkons. Dark Energy fields and Darkons can be manipulated using a man made engineered substance known as Elchon. Elchon deflects Darkons and blocks dark energy fields, meaning that pulses of dark energy can be directed. If done in the right way, the pulse of a Dark Energy Reactor can be used to distort other Dark Energy Fields to absorb and move other Darkons, causing the reactor to be rather self-powered. However, Darkons do decay over time by getting launched to far out of the reactors reach, so reactors only last a certain amount of time. But the idea of having reactors that are mildly self sustaining creates the possibility of faster than light travel
*Basics on how Dark Matter and Dark Energy work and how this effects space-time*

STVN (Space-Time Vortex Navigation)
Spoiler for Hidden:
  STVN (an acronym for Space-Time Vortex Navigation) is the most common form of faster than light speed used, it is used by almost all races for long distance travel. Although, incorrectly deemed "Faster than light" and "Teleportation" STVN doesn't have an object move faster than physical laws, but instead changes the space and time around that object allowing it to travel long distances extremely quickly. The process works by using a Dark Energy Reactor in a space cruiser to launch a large cluster of Darkons in-front of the ship at near light speed. The large cluster of Darkons compacts relative space of a distance to a very significant degree, causing a minor "rip" in space, which, in an actual fact is more of a short-cut, a worm hole. The Worm hole itself is not sustaining for very long and is in-fact invisible, so seemingly it seems as if the ship moving just vanishes, when in an actual fact it's just moving through space-time at a different rate then normal objects. Although the distance between point A and B is drastically shortened, the time within in the rip is also slowed down. So although it may take a week for people on a cruiser to travel 100 light years, to people not traveling, it would seem like it took half a second. This is where it is often confused with teleportation and is often considered teleportation.

  That said, there are several limitations for STVN. The most basic one is that ships moving with STVN can only move in a straight line but they can still collide with matter. This means that paths have to be very well planned out before STVN can occur, as to not hit a planet or another space-station. That being the most basic effect, there are two other more advanced and more destructive issues. The Rip Current and The Warp Storm.

  Rip Currents are caused due to the large Dark Energy Field of the cruiser disturbing other Darkons in the cruisers path. The cruisers dark energy field actually attracts static Darkons to it, causing the Cruiser to "pick up" Darkons. As accelerating Darkons create a noticeable distortion of space-time, the cruiser picking up Darkons creates a very violent stream of rapidly changing dark energy fields (and thus rapidly changing space-time). What's worse, as Darkons are attracted to the cruiser, the dark energy influence of the cruiser increases, meaning the effect of a rip current increases the longer the cruiser travels (as it picks up more Darkons). This means, that at short distances Rip currents are no problem, but at large distances (over 100 light years) a rip current can become self sustaining. A self sustaining rip current has rapid, violently changing dark energy fields effecting Darkons around them, which in turn induce dark energy fields. This creates Rip Currents that can last for thousands of years, being very destructive for anyone who passes through them.

  Warp Storms are caused when the cruiser stops moving and reaches it's destination. Cruisers stop distorting space-time when the initially shot Darkons decay or no longer stay true to their path. When the Cruiser stops moving, the initial dark energy field that "picked up" additional Darkons vanishes, so the Darkons that the cruiser picked up propel randomly in every direction. The resulting Dark Energy Field (and space-time shift) can cause devastating effects, this effect is known as the Warp Storm. Luckily, most warp storms are insignificant, but the magnitude of the warp storm (like the Rip Current) is proportional to the size of the cruiser and the distance the cruiser travels. Because of all these factors, STVN are limited to around 100 light years or less, you can chain many STVN jumps together, but this takes time and considerable energy. Despite these flaws, this is still seen as the best and most efficient way of long distance travel on a large scale.
*This is about the most common form of teleportation used*

Paths:
Spoiler for Hidden:
  Paths is a special form of teleporation used by The Realm Creatures (Creatures) and The Realm Followers (Followers). Creatures have the ability to warp space-time, this is due to naturally regenerating Darkons within the Creatures themselves, they can release small amounts of Darkons at will to manipulate space-time.
Creatures use Darkons as a gateway from our universe to The Realm as well, they also use the very Darkons to communicate messages from our universe to the Realm, this is because Darkons are the only particles that exist in both The Realm and our universe. The Realm Followers are people of our universe (the majority being of the black Elegance or a rouge human colony known by The Revice as "Heretics") artificially inject themselves with Darkons so they can manipulate matter as well. Unfortunately, this allows the influence of the realm to spread to them, and the Realm overseers (almost like the Realm leaders) can convert Followers to our race.

  Darkons are not uniform, they are placed unevenly throughout the universe, the cause of this is unknown (though it's believed to have come about due to the first firing of the universal cannon [see older article for detail]). However, these means that occasionally there is a certain area of the space with zero or very few Darkons. As Followers can only manipulate a few Darkons at a time, shooting Darkons into this area can amplify the dark energy field and space-time shift emitted, due to no opposing Dark energy fields being present. This can create a tiny wormhole that can transport units instantly (through a very similar process as STVN) across a small space span of around 100km. The severe limitations of this form of teleportation are mainly the randomness of these paths. As they are not artificial, but natural, the actual paths are random. If a follower wants to get from Point A to B via teleporation there would need to be a path already connecting those two points. What makes it worse is that once one path is taken, it is populated with new Darkons and can't be used again, however, there influences pushes over darkons closer to them, creating new paths. So a path can never be used more than once, but anytime a path is used a new path is created.

  Creatures can use a special form of Path knows as an Exclusive Path, only creatures have the capabilities to use this path and it is currently unknown how they do this. However, Exclusive paths allow Creatures to move from Our universe, to the Realm and back to our universe. The benefits of this is they can sling shot off the realm, to bypass distance limitations for our universe. This means they can use the Path method to travel 100's of light years, without any form of warp storm or rip path. All the disadvantages of normal Paths though still apply to Exclusive Paths.
*A form of Teleportation used by The Realm Creatures and the Realm Followers*

Light-Matter Transfer
Spoiler for Hidden:
Light Matter Transfer is seen as the most efficient way of teleportation that is only used for the sentinals. Sentinals have personal light-matter convertors that take all the molecular information of the sentinal and transfer that into electromagnetic waves at the expense of the original sentinal body. Pretty much, sentinals turn into light. Although sentient races have the technology to achieve this, certain ethical issues including the idea of being "destroyed" and a clone recreated on the other side, prohibit sentient races from this form of teleportation. Sentinals, being organic machines, don't see this as a bad thing, sentinals are very collective creatures and one unit is seen as insignificant, there is no concept of consciousness or soul in the sentinal race.

 Light-Matter Transfer allows Sentinals to move any distance at the speed of light almost instantly. However, traveling a distance of 100 light years at this speed would take... 100 years. To combat this, sentinals use a mix between light-matter transfer and STVN, this is known as DLMT (Distant Light Mass Transfer). DLMT is when a space-time wormhole is opened due to the STVN method, but then the sentinals cruisers are converted into light and then go through the wormhole. This gets rid of almost all the limitations to conventional STVN. As light can travel through matter, collision is not an issue, as light has no mass, nor is a warp storm or a Rip current. Thus, the use of DLMT has allowed sentinals teleportation to become vastly superior to that of any other race.

Information about the advanced AI of the sentinels: (how they function)

Spoiler for Hidden:
Note: Revice refers to the race, why a human refers to an individual
Sentinels:
  The artificial intelligence of the sentinels is of unimaginable complexity, beyond human technology. Although the sentinels origins are vague and only based with loose theories, the reason of the immense complexity and advancement of their technology can be explained by a leading principle used in Revice AI manufacturing protocol. The effect is known by the Revice as the Exponent Effect; that is, if you create an AI that can create a smarter AI, that smarter AI can create an even smarter AI and the process continues until you have an almost omniscient AI.

  The Exponent Effect is one of many Revice legislation used to outlaw improper AI use. The Revice have legal limits on the intelligence of an AI. It is said that an AI that could achieve the Exponent Effect must not be manufactured, under penalty of death. Another AI legislation is the Reasonable Sapience Quota (RSQ). The RSQ outlines what is and what isn't acceptable in the amount of sapience an AI can have, this includes but is not limited to: whether or not an AI can feel pain, the rate at which an AI can learn, the access of an AI and making an AI indistinguishable to a human is outlawed. Because of these legislation, AI research for manufacturing is severely limited, with only a few militant groups advancing technology for their own creation. Most AI research is used in damaging or destroying enemy AI's, the highest resource of study is into the Sentinels AI.

  Studies have been made to date the Sentinels being active before humans by over 280,000 years, so if the effect was exponential, the sentinels would of achieved true unification and omniscience before humans even resembled what they do today. The actual fact is that the process is not entirely exponential, but has a peak intensity which decreases beyond that peak, the rate of increase begins to decrease after a certain time. This was true for the sentinels due to an excess in programmable material, so much so that the rate at which the sentinels created new data was faster than the rate which technology advanced far enough for that new data to be processed along with the old data. Sentinels grew faster than they could support, the processing power of large cluster servers (which will be explained later) would be limited between the excess of programs, creating a race which actually decreased it's intelligence faster than it increased it's intelligence. This peak is the peak where the sentinels grew much, much slower, at this time period new races began to form as well, creating conflict, the conflict and lose of sentinel programs actually allows the cluster servers to disperse processing more significantly for each sentinel. The less sentinels there are, the smarter the sentinels, every sentinel that gets lost makes all the other sentinels smarter and more organized with long distance sentinel groups. This change between intelligences creates a constantly changing, dynamic rate of increase in the sentinels technology, going from very slow to unbelievably fast. However, despite these changes, sentinels intelligence is still increasing, meaning that eventually sentinels will reach a point of near omniscience and will be able to eliminate and control all other sentient races.

  There are three different classes of sentinel intelligence that is within each sentinel unit, the individual class, the network class and the cloud class. Sentinels can refer to two different things, the hardware or the software of the sentinel, usually the hardware is known as the “Unit” and the software is known as the “Program”. In the individual class of processing data in sentinels, the Unit is a near perfect quantum computer processing an astounding amount of information. It is said that the minds of a billion humans would be almost enough to comprehend the mind of a single Unit. Units have a very large potential in processing data in this regard, they can receive the output of outside stimuli more accurately and advanced then any other race, seeing individual microbes from kilometers away. This would make them invincible foes, but that is only the potential capabilities of a Unit. Units are designed to hold different amounts of programs, a single unit can hold quadrillions of programs, each work together in parallel, creating an extremely smart Unit. However, when a unit malfunctions or is destroyed, the programs within that unit are erased, meaning that a Fully Stocked Unit (FSU, refers to  a unit with a maximum amount of programs that the unit can hold) is seen as extremely valuable and FSUs are usually kept away for battle for this very reason. Most sentinels have the individual intelligence level of around 3 average humans, containing roughly 4,000,000 programs each unit, roughly 0.000000043% of the units program capacity, creating minimal program loss if a unit is destroyed. The energy to run a unit is made using internal Dark Energy Reactors, extracting and vibrating Darkons from inside the unit, creating a continuous source of energy (how sentinels managed to create such small Dark Energy Reactors is still not known), however, this source eventually decays due to Darkon Decay, meaning that a single unit has an expected life-time of around 800 years. The material a unit is made of is made of quite strong metallic elements and alloys, the creating of these materials is used through nuclear fusion of hydrogen to create materials such as diamond or titanium.

    The second class of sentinel data structure is known as the “Network Class”. The network class works as a protocol above the individual class. The network class refers to the network of data shared between sentinels, the transfer of messenger programs from one unit to another to update certain stimuli. Due to limitations of the speed of light, these networks are quite limited in distance, there is no network that will expand beyond an average planets distance. Using Space-Time Vortex Navigation techniques would prove inefficient for such a small entity as a single unit. The network works pretty simply, each unit gathers data through the individual class, then compiles that data into small compact files that are sent to every other unit in the near area. When a unit receives an external input file from another unit, the files are added to the general units data allowing an updated screen shot of the units surroundings. That is if one sentinel sees you, it is likely all other sentinels in the general area see you as well. Sentinels also have the capability to move essential programs from one unit to the next, this means that if a smart unit of 10,000,000 programs is required for a scenario, but there are only 2 units of 6,000,000 programs present, then one unit can donate 4,000,000 of it's own programs to the other unit. This process is relatively quick, but a normal unit requires at least 150,000 programs to function, but at such a small amount of programs, the unit basically has the intelligence of a small animal. This combination of perspectives and updated data creates very smart, coordinated and fast reacting foes, memories are also extensively saved, meaning sentinels can go back to past data trends and predict enemies new moves in real time. An instant network of units can be quite devastating, if you are behind a wall and there is a sentinel walking past, it is possible that the sentinel can still see your every movement required that another sentinel, somewhere, is observing you. The Revice have designed a Network Blocking Device that actually destroys the network of sentinels in and around the area, meaning that sentinels become entirely uncoordinated with each other, making them easy prey. This exploitation was originated from observing a naturally occurring Terronix pulse emission, the weapon is considered the greatest weapon against the sentinels and without it, it is very possible that the sentinels would of exterminated the Revice under first contact.

  The last and arguably most important class of the Sentinels is the Cloud class. The cloud refers to a large density of Fully Stocked Units extremely close together in an almost instantaneous network. The structure in which a cloud is stored is known as a cluster server. These are the general hive minds of the Sentinels and much about them is not understood, what is known though is the entire mass of programs, perspectives, ideas and calculations works on grounds that are so significantly different from anything a human could comprehend. These cluster servers have so much information going through them, it is said that a thousand years of human history and perspectives could be computed in mere seconds. The cluster servers are generally what coordinate large sentinel armies or remote sentinel locations not in a network. The cluster uses standard Space-Time Distortion techniques to contact units almost instantaneously relative to the standard physical universe. These servers however have limitations, the sheer amount of power that is used to run these large cluster servers is limited. A cluster server is the only place sentinels can duplicate and modify existing programs, constantly improving the efficiency of programs, but as stated above, the program creation can sometimes be faster than the development of more efficient programs. This means that if too many programs are made, then the cluster server can only give limited information to each program, the more programs the less information each individual program will get. These pretty much means the more sentinels, the less organized these sentinels are. This is the reason why there is not an infinite amount of programs being duplicated within these cluster servers, it is also the reason why the sentinels have not increased in intelligence to a degree of almost omniscience in the time they have been active. Destruction of a cluster server is seen as catastrophic to the sentinels as an incomprehensible amount of data is lost forever, for this reason sentinels are extraordinarily protective of their cluster servers and protect them above all else.

  These three Classes of sentinel data processing, Individual Class, Network Class and Cloud Class are what fundamentally defines the sentinels and their significant intelligence and ability to grow. The sentinels continue to improve at an unsteady rate, but the sentinels are always improving and only time will tell if the sentinels will become strong enough to destroy all over races. During Kyle's rain and the catastrophic opening the Realm, around 215 cloud servers were destroyed in the process, setting the sentinels technology back many, many years. It took a very long time for the sentinels to come grow back to full strength after that event.

Information about the Realm Creatures. Philosophies, society and how they work.

Spoiler for Hidden:
  The Realm is a universe that far exceeds the capabilities and bounds of our universe. The Realm Creatures refer to life that formulates within the Realm. The Realm Creatures are responsible for the creation of our universe, through currently unknown means. The Realm is the most dense space of Darkons in existence, it is known to be an extremely unstable realm of space that has significantly extended physical laws of our universe. As our universe was created from the Realm, our universes physical laws derived from the Realm. However, the physical laws of our universe are somewhat more bounded and restricted then the physical laws of the Realm, meaning that was is impossible in this universe could potentially be possible in the Realm. This has lead to the theory that our universe was created artificially, by the Realm Creatures, purposely adding physical law restrictions. If this theory is true it also means there could be potentially millions of other universe just like our own, but with different physical laws adapted from our universe.

  The Realm was opened by Kyle and Necromancer using the Catalyst. The Catalyst is a name given for an artifact that irradiated a significant amount of Dark Energy and was extremely dense. When firing a slow neutron into the Catalyst, it created a nuclear reaction which created enough energy to break apart the molecular structure of the Catalyst, (the catalyst at this time looked like a giant Black Rock). This energy allowed the free movement of the Darkons emitting the Dark Energy, causing them to escape. This escape was supplied with a dramatic space-time shift, the likes which the universe had never seen, as an unbelievable amount of dense, fast moving Darkons were released at the same time. This space-time shift opened a doorway into the Realm, which the Realm Creatures instantly noted and kept open, causing free access between our universe and the Realm. It is believed that our universe was created artificially by the Realm Creatures as a method of either testing technological limits, or studying the effects a universe can have on a society. It is believed however that our universe was somehow lost, after it's creation and the Realm was not able to locate it nor access it. Because of this our universe was allowed to grow without direct intervention, causing our universe to not match up with the standards or wants of the Realm Creatures. This meant that, when they finally found our universe again, there first instinct was to attempt to destroy it, less it grow any bigger and become a threat to the Realm itself. (This was made true when Kyle actually fired The Universal Cannon in the Realm causing the Realm to be devastated).

  The Realm is the most dense accumulation of Darkons in existence, when a portal from our universe and the Realm is opened, this creates a dramatic influx of incoming Darkons and "created energy" (relative to our universe) to enter our universe, causing significant changing space-time fields and devastating warp storms. The Realm Creatures have unique, inbuilt, synthetic, genetic technology that allows them to modify and move, on a macroscopic level, the influx and movement of Darkons. This essentially allows them to warp space-time, which they can use as devastating weapons of mass destruction, individual unit teleportation, a seemingly infinite energy supply and ability to portal in and out of the Realm and our Universe. This makes Realm Creatures arguably the most dangerous threat to our universe, even a Fully Stocked Sentinel could not predict the movement or tactics of a Realm Creature as the Realm Creature is able to accomplish what would be considered impossible. As the Realm has different laws of physics to our universe, the Realm Creatures, using sling shot effects into the Realm and around our universe, can do things that are seen as physically impossible, such as creating matter and energy. This causes some extremely unexpected turn of events, such as a Realm Creature floating in space, which would be able to create an space cruiser from seemingly nothing.

  The Realm is governed by Overseers, who contact via Space-Time Distortion Communication to each and every Realm Creature as a hive mind. The Overseers have no official name and it is impossible to tell how many Overseers there actually are, but the Revice have given them names and pinned it down that at least 3 overseers exist. Overseers have a very weak influence of any Darkon possible in our universe, this means that an Overseer, a creature from the Realm, can move, on a microscopic level, Darkons of our universe without actually entering our universe. The Overseers use this as a form of psychological communication in order to convert races of our universe, such as The Revice (humans) or Atos, to follow the goals of the Realm. This is known as Corruption and has lead to the existence of the "Heretics" and the Black Elegance. The Overseers ability to corrupt is directly effected by the density of Darkons in a area, usually the density of darkons is quite small in a human, so the corrupting effect is negligible. However, some humans who choose to have the same synthetic implants as the Realm Creatures, in order to change space-time at will, will notice a considerable increase in Darkon matter within them. This means that they have become corruptible and they will be corrupted by the Overseers. This is why The Revice has not condoned nor allowed the modifying implants that would allow the mental changing of reality and space-time. This also means that corrupted individuals usually DO have the power to change space-time, making them extremely hazardous foes.

  The three overseers are known to the Revice due to religious teachings of the corrupted, particularly the Black Elegance. The Black Elegance teachers of three "gods" (which are the overseers). Saintri' (God of Madness), Marku'm (God of Technology) and Ba'ral (God of Destruction). The Titles in the brackets are titles given by the Revice, the Black Elegance calls Saintri', the god of truth, Marku'm, the god of prosperity and Ba'ral, the god of salvation. Saintri' followers dedicate themselves to the idea of intense corruption of all races, believing that that Saintri' is the only salvation for our universe and believing that the "truths" Saintri' tells are the truths that must be followed. Saintri' followers specialize in intense psychological warfare. Marku'm followers believe in the idea of the "machine" and that all must be one with technology. Marku'm followers often have cybernetic upgrades and forced biological implants in order to create a larger influx of Darkons within there systems, believing that this will make them closer to Marku'm. Because of this, it is known that Marku'm followers are known to have the strongest space-time warping abilities of all the other followers, making them extraordinarily dangerous foes. Ba'ral followers believe in that the total destruction of our universe will be the salvation of it, believing that our universe will transcend to it's original roots within the realm. Ba'ral followers are renowned beserkers and babarians that will stop at nothing to destroy everyone and everything who is not willing to follow the Cause of the overseers.

  The Realm Creatures have destroyed a significant amount of our universe and the Radio (The Plague), simply due to the warp storms that are created when they enter. They are known to be highly unpredictable foes and with the high degree of corruption within the society, there existence has caused a significant social change in all other races. As access to the realm gives access to previously impossible things, the Realms existence was imperative for the existence of the Elements, artifacts that used the physical properties of the Realm to modify our universe. The Elements were the primary reason the Revice became a dominant race and so it is often argued whether the opening of the Realm to our universe was a good or bad thing. The discussion was ended when Kyle cut most ties from the Realm to our universe, causing the Elements to have little effect and power.

Re: My Universe

In this next article I'm going to be writing about the weaponry of each race in the universe, as there is a lot to cover, I'll be mainly covering the weaponry and design of navel ships (space-ships) of each race. (Note: this is only general ideas of weapons, most races can use several customisations of these weapons)
Spoiler for Hidden:
Revice:
  The Revice's navel ships are mainly built of most metals such as titanium, as the Revice is relatively novice to space travel and they use a robust form of STVN, their ships resemble this. STVN requires a large, extremely fast cluster of Darkons to be fired directly infront of the ship to create a space-time vortex through space, allowing quick access between extremely long distances. However, to gather enough energy to actually fire the Darkons, a very large Dark Energy Reactor is required, to accelerate the available Darkons, multiple pulses of Dark Energy needs to be applied continuously to the Darkons, in order to do that the Darkons need to travel a large linear or cyclonic distance. This means that large ships can resemble a massive cannon, as the needs of STVN navigation is usually quite significant. This method has been able to give arise to extremely large mass-accelerator weapons to "latch" onto the main Darkon accelerator. Meaning that Revice ships are usually quite significantly equipped, but unfortunately this makes Revice ships few.
  Magnetic Anti-Matter Cluster Launcher (MAMCL): The MAMCL is the largest military cannon manufactured for any star-ship. Using the energy of a Dark Energy Reactor a mass of Anti-Protons is created, this mass is heavily clumped together to a point of near absolute density, being attracted by the strong nuclear force and being repulsed by surrounding electrons, creating a negative electric field of almost 5 PeV. The surrounding electrons don't just act as a mechanism to keep the anti-protons together, but they also create a shell that deflects small amounts of matter from reacting with the large anti-matter cluster. The cluster can weigh anywhere from 1KG to 1,000 kg, depending on the size of the Dark Energy Reactor on the ship. The Anti-Matter slug is fired through electromagnetic propulsion of the surrounding electric field, when flying through a vacuum only small amounts of matter can get in the way, this is deflected by the surrounding electric field of the Anti-Matter slug. However, if large amounts of matter get in the way (such as an enemy space cruiser), then the electric field will be unable to repulse the matter and the Anti-Matter and Matter will collide. This will ideally convert the two colliding objects into energy, causing a massive energy release. A slug of Anti-matter with a mass of 1KG is capable of releasing the energy of approximately 1022x more than the nuke landed on Nagasaki.
  There are several disadvantages to the use of this kind of weaponry however. For one, it can only be used in space combat, not as orbital strikes, as the atmosphere on a planet could be enough to break the magnetic field causing premature detonation. This would be ok if the slug left shrapnel, but unfortunately all of slug is converted during detonation, which means that no kind of shrapnel is ever left. Because of the lack of Shrapnel, this weapon is usually used as a hull breach weapon, most weapons in the Revice are designed purely for punching holes in ships, rather than general damage. Another problem with MAMCL is the storage of the Anti-Matter slugs, if the electromagnetic field surrounding the slug fluctuates incorrectly, even for a second, it could cause the slug to detonate inside the ship. Most ships counter this problem by creating the slug in battle, but this can be a lengthy process and means that the gun takes a very long time to "charge up". Another disadvantage is that the slug can react strangely with an enemies ships kinetic barriers. As most "shields" are made using electromagnetism, the effect this has on the slugs own electromagnetic field can be varied. Depending on the enemies kinetic barrier, the slug might go straight through the barrier or may be deflected by the barrier entirely. Despite this flaws, it is still used as one of the most destructive weapons in the Revice arsenal, capable of destroying entire cruisers in a single shot.
  Relativistic Mass Accelerator Cannons (RMACs): A RMAC is a simple form of electromagnetic accelerator gun. Using a charged metal slug, often the size and shape resembling a telegraph pole, large electromagnetic pulses can be used to accelerate the slug. This slug can be accelerated through a linear mass accelerator up to 0.98c (that is, 98% the speed of light). This creates an extremely fast moving projectile that can be used to penetrate ships. This weapon is very effective against most targets, the projectile can be very, very fast and due to relativistic effects, can move in unpredictable ways. This is the most common form of naval Weapon, certain subclasses have been made such as the SAD (System Alliance Destroyer) which fires a single, long round that is extremely good for penetrating enemy targets, the Overshock Pellet (known as "Dark Rain") which fires a buck shot of small projectiles causing mass damage on many different areas of a ship, and the EMSP (Electromagnetic Shock Pulse) using the actual electromagnetic propulsion to shoot an EMP device into the enemy ships orbit, causing damage to cybernetics and computer frameworks. RMACs can be used as orbital weapons, often with quite devastating results. RMACs are the Revice's main ship cannons.

Zarge:
  Zarge has surprisingly one of the largest and most powerful space fleets in the entire galaxy. Zarge have got their technology prowess from taking the technology of hundreds of other conquered races and adding that conquered races technology to their own. Because of this their ships are of very varied and unique design, it is often cited that Zarge don't actually know how most of their technology works, only how to build it, how to maintain it and repair it. An common example used in the Revice is, the Zarge look a Mass Accelerator and go "This moves this metal really fast, but if these big things have scratches, then the metal doesn't move". Only a select few Zarge know actually the science behind their mechanics, but those are few in number and are often the ones in charge of constructing such devices. Despite this, the Zarge has some very surprisingly high tech weaponry, dwarfing that, in terms of destructive power, of other races.
  Space Ripper: The simple named "Space Ripper" is a large spike made of extremely dense dark matter. Dark Matter is essentially an extremely large group of darkons that absorb all EMR due to the space-time shifts, the gathering of dark matter is extremely difficult and it is unknown to the Revice how to create dark matter of that size, the Zarge use some sort of technology to compact darkons into a dense space so that they stick together. A Dark Matter spike being projected out of a cannon at 0.9999c is unbelievably catastrophic. Creating a space-time shift throughout it's entire trail, it impacts an enemy ship with ease (traveling to that enemy ship instantly using it's own generated STVN). The fired slug leaves behind a massive blue lightning-like field due to the immense space-time shift on it's trail, changing all the electric charge in the area creating a large electric static shock. This is why it is sometimes, although incorrectly, coined as the Lightning Cannon. When the shell impacts an enemy ship, the darkons gathered break apart in every direction creating violently changing space-time fields, this effect (as talked about in the article on "teleportation") is called a Warp Storm. A single blast from this cannon can literally get space to tear a ship apart. Although the method to create such large amounts of Dark Matter is unknown, it is known that it takes an extremely long time to create it, Zarge may have to wait days before firing this weapon, meaning that it's a weapon only for extremely selected objects. Apart from that, the projectile also leaves a Rip Current that can cause problems with moving past for both friendly and enemy ships.
  Spike Canister: The Spike Canister is in use by most Zarge weapons. Firing a large hardened spike shell through normal Electromagnetic Acceleration techniques, (though the Zarge have managed to accelerate these canisters to a mind blowing 0.99998c). The impact of the Spike and the enemy ship is enough to penetrate the enemy ship and destroy the spike. This means that the spike can often contain certain devices that can be impacted inside an enemy ship. Most of these spike canisters contain explosives or incendiary devices used to kill personal inside a cruiser. However very unique and creative adaptions have been made in scope of these canisters, including Electromagnetic pulse generators, commonly known as "shield crackers", to take down enemy kinetic barriers. Biological weapons and even computer virus emitting arrays have been used inside these Spike Canisters. Spike Canisters are extremely deadly for personal inside a ship and are the main naval weapon used for the Zarge.

Sentinels:
  Sentinels often do not partake in naval battles in a conventional sense. Sentinels use extremely sophisticated cyber warfare and radioactive emitting weapons, rather than conventional kinetic projectiles. Sentinels ships (that aren't the standard cluster servers) are usually quite compact and small, this is because sentinel fighter ships do not actually contain the sentinels hardware, but only the software that defines the sentinels. A sentinel war ship is essentially a computer with guns. However, transport ships are much larger and ships that are required for STVN are considerably larger.
  Cyber Warfare: Sentinels key focus in naval battles is disabling an enemies computers and ships. Sentinels have unbelievably computational capabilities and are able to hack into significant ship main-frames faster than any known sentient hacker. Their knowledge and understanding is often overwhelming. over 2,000,000,000,000 known computer viruses have been detected, each working in radically different ways. Creating a firewall to protect against sentinel cyber attack is almost impossible and useless. Instead, the use of electromagnetic kinetic barriers around a ship can disrupt incoming EMR signals coming from the sentinel ship. This means, that as long as a ship has it's kinetic barriers up, a sentinel cannot really hack into a ship, (it also means that the ship can't communicate through standard internet means) however if the ships kinetic barriers go down, the Sentinels can hack into the ship in seconds.
  Electromagnetic Bursts: To disrupt kinetic barriers, or kill occupants of a ship, sentinels rely on powerful electromagnetic bursts. Using a Darkons to modify space-time fields, an almost black hole of electrons can be made, creating an extremely dense electric point. When this point is fired in a reactor, the resulting charge fluctuation releases extremely powerful EMR of all wavelengths. By directing this EMR into a single point, extremely powerful lasers can be made. In close range, this lasers can burn through metal, but in long distances the lasers increase in area and decrease in intensity. Thus, this lasers are usually used to slowly cook occupants of an enemy space-cruiser by heating the space cruiser up with a constant flow of electromagnetic bursts. This effect can also have radically different and unpredictable effects to electromagnetic barriers including overcharging and deactivating them. This mode of weaponry is considerably effective, but with no weapons to actually cause structural damage on a ship, sentinel space weaponry can be limited.

Atos:
  The Atos are a collection of races, a unification of several races put into the same unity. The Atos naval ship designs is that of many races working together (it is often said that the Atos is an almost perfect example of a utopian race). Atos weaponry differ from most, using large bolts of plasma and electric "bolts", the Atos space-combat is effective against most means. Atos surprisingly do not use much Darkon technology on their weapons, this both causes advantages and disadvantages to their technology. The disadvantage is that their technology, although extremely sophisticated, is not as effective as most other races. The Advantages however is that most defenses are generated with Darkons in mind, the Atos's lack of Darkons means that these defenses aren't designed for Atos attack, making Atos considerably foes.
  Plasma Arc Cannon: The Plasma Arc Cannon is a marvel of science and engineering, a combination of two lethal elements to create an extremely harmonious and lethal weapon. The Plasma Arc Cannon uses nuclear fusion technology to heat substances up to a degree so hot that they turn to plasma. Then, through a series of cyclonic electron particle accelerators, the plasma is bombarded with high energy electron particles. The mix of subatomic particles of different charges creates a surprisingly reacting substance known as "Electro-Plasma". This electro plasma is plasma that is fundamentally ruled by the electromagnetic force of electrons, meaning that the plasma works as a sort of electricity. When fired out of a cannon the Electro-Plasma will follow at 0.99c an enemy ship and will impact any shield barriers in the way, the charge of the plasma will disrupt kinetic barriers based on electromagnetic technology and the plasma will remain almost unaffected by the kinetic barrier. The electro-plasma will impact the enemy space cruiser and the high temperature will burn straight through the metal, also causing electrostatic interference for communication devices. This makes this kind of weaponry extremely lethal for almost any ship, making this a very useful weapon in an Atos Arsenal. The problem with the weapon is, there is not much penetration involved and the weapon is limited to short distances.

Re: My Universe
« Reply #5 on: August 29, 2012, 11:15:25 AM »
Well under the idea of a friend I have thought about making a wiki for this world. But for now:

  As their are still several races to go in terms of naval weaponry that I didn't finish in my first post, I decided I would conclude the difference in naval weaponry with the remaining races. The Radio; Realm's Creatures; The Terronix and the Black Elegence.
Spoiler for Hidden:
The Radio
  The radio don't actually use conventional naval weapons. The Radio is more in reference to the Skull beetle parasite that can infect and control host bodies. Thus they are essentially a swarm of zombie inducing skull beetles that have the ability to survive in space. Without any proper use of higher intelligence, the skull beetles can still make "nests" that are used as warships. Through a process of evolution the Radio have managed to construct basic uses of weaponry to invade other naval ships.
  Barrage Asteroid: The Barrage Asteroid is the firing of a large rock into an enemy naval ships Kinetic Barriers. The Barrage Asteroid is accelerated due to large scale cyclonic mass accelerator technology. The existence for the Radio to achieve such advance in technology is simply due copying other races in the technological prowess. This what initially quite a startling display of intelligent manufacturing done the Radio that was extremely unexpected; theories on how the Radio managed to construct this device is either the existence of an intelligent hive mind or due to simply quick accelerated evolution, but neither theory has been completely proven. Either way, how they actually create the asteroid is even more Intelligent. The nests simulate gravity through a series of quick moving rotations, however, the design of special areas with increased mass actually creates an induce gravity field that has pieces of rock orbiting a central mass. This means that using the Mass Accelerator, small dirt is fired in the coming orbit which eventually clumps together to a fast moving heavy asteroid. Then, using a hive gate to open and close the central mass, the central mass can be exerted from the space ship leaving the asteroid with no centripetal force to keep in orbit, causing to go accelerating in a single line. This line points to the enemy ship and causes a usually super heavy asteroid to go colliding with enemy ships. While a normal Kinetic barrier could deflect light pieces of matter, the asteroid is usually the size of a small moon and thus can cause massive damage and break almost any kinetic barrier. On top of this, the asteroid usually contains skull beetles that can infect the local population. This makes the Asteroid barrage extremely deadly, however the disadvantage is it usually can only be fired once every few weeks, thus the Radio naval fleet is usually very selective in what they fire.

Realm's Creatures
  Realm's creatures are creatures from a dominant dimension known simply as the Realm. Realm creatures have the natural ability to manipulate Darkons and thus bend space-time, thus their naval weapons are highly dependent on extremely advanced Darkon fields. Once more, they also have access to the Realm which allows them to manufacture extremely sophisticated weapons that would be impossible to design for any other race. The two primary weapons that are used are shown below.
  Darkon Curve Spike (DCS): The Darkon Curve Spike is a large spike of dark matter that emits a controlled flow of darkons. The spike uses a sophisticated quantum-entangled computer interfaces to give real time data on the trajectory of the spike. The computer on the Darkon also regulates darkon emission on each side of the spike, this technology is used by creating small subatomic portals to the realm which releases a significant influx of darkons. As stated before, dark matter is essentially an extremely dense cluster of darkons that space-time warp is so significiant all electromagnetic radiation is absorbed. The control of the darkon projectile release means that Realm's Creatures have an extremely advanced control mechanism for how space-time is bent during the trajectory of the Darkon Curve Spike. This means that Darkons can literally curve space to allow spike to fire from previously impossible angles. An example is, A Realm ship in front of a Revice ship could still shoot the back of the Revice ship without any noticeable projectile moving. This means that the Realm's Creatures can essentially choose, without worry, what angle they want to shoot an enemy ship from, regardless of the location of their own ship, allowing them to exploit weak points of enemy ships. This also means that detecting a realm ship can be difficult even if it's firing on you. Darkon Curve Spike's usually are quite low in mass and Darkon Density and thus don't cause a significant impact to an enemy ship, a small warp storm can initiated on impact however, meaning that kinetic barriers and ships in general can be victim to this deadly weapon.
  Teleporting D-Mass Bomb: The D-Mass bomb refers to a large spherical and Unstable dark matter ball. This ball eventually collapses on itself and releases darkons in every direction, causing a massive warp storm. The concept of the D-mass bomb has been widely thought about in other races, but it is impossible to achieve using other races technology as the D-mass bomb is simply to unstable and it is considered extremely difficult to get that density of dark matter. However, the natural manipulation of Darkons and the teleportation to the Realm means that the Realm don't suffer these consequences, however the D-Mass bomb is still extremely unstable in our universe and would detonate on creation. To solve this, the Realm will actually create a large realm portal that will teleport the bomb INSIDE an enemy ship, bypassing any exterior armour or Kinetic barriers, releasing the equal of a small nova inside a spaceship, completely destroying any enemy ship. If this technology was perfected, the Realm would stand as the most destructive force known to the history of this universe. However, in order to teleport the D-mass bomb, several co-ordinates need to placed on the ship. In order to get perfect accuracy, 6 small drones need to be orbiting the enemy ship in order to give accurate performance. These drones are often hard to detect but easy to destroy, if the enemy can destroy just one of these six navigation drones, then the Realm will be unable to accurately teleport a D-mass bomb inside the enemy ship.

Terronix:
  The Terronix or Gymebots are being made of a plasma like substance known Terroflux which can create a diamond hard substance known as Terronyte. Terroflux seems to be a careful state of matter that is neither matter nor energy but more of a twilight between the two. It is believed the Terronix is the oldest known race to our universe and is seemingly unintelligent. However, it's known that the Terronix are actually probably the most intelligent of all races, exhibiting such complicated Darkon manipulating technology just from the Terroflux they are made of, however there is no known form to communicate with the Terronix and thus they are considered both mysterious and frightening. Their naval ships, like their bodies, weapons and technology, is made of the Terronyte and Terroflux material.
  TerroFlux Grid Pulse: The Terroflux Grid pulse is the corner stone of many sentient races trying to manipulate this technology. This includes the Atos's electro-plasma, the Revice's Network Blocking Device and the, soon to be mentioned, Black Elegance Tesla Grid. The TerroFlux Grid pulse fires a large, expanding wave of large volumes of terroflux. Not much is known about the substance itself, but what is known is that it hold a significant amount of thermal energy, capable of heating pieces of space to over 800,000,000 degrees. The large temperatures of the pulse can literally burn through any known material in the existence of the universe, however the wave is stuck by a form of wave expansion. That is, after 80KM, the wave only heats 25% of it's original value, 80KM further and it's a further 25%, and so on. After around 1000km, the wave only heats to a degree of 23.84 degrees. This means that it's a relatively short distance weapon, but has been extremely lethal. The amount of energy released in the burn is almost immeasurable and is why many other races seek to mimic it. The effect that the Revice have used is the effect this has on networks, it acts a sort of EMP due to the huge release of EMR in almost all frequencies and intensities. Meaning that almost all connections are jammed, this also has an effect of disabling most electromagnetic kinetic barriers.

The Black Elegance:
  The Black Elegance use generally the same weapons the Revice do, their designs are quite similar in terms of the use of RMAC's (Relativistic Mass Accelerator Cannons). However, there is one key difference in the design of The Black Elegance.
  The Tesla Grid: While this is not actually a conventional weapon and is more a Kinetic Barrier, the Tesla Grid is a marvel of energetic engineering. By bombarding plasma with electrons a similar, but less effective, material of Electroplasma can be made. The electroplasma made by the Black Elegance is not as efficient or stable as the Electroplasma made of the Atos. However, the use of this Electroplasma is quite different, by implementing Quantum Entanglement Devices in a network, using small molecule relays in a large sized grid, a very effective defense barrier can be made. Each molecule relay shoots a small beam of light to all over molecule relays, each molecule relay is surrounded by a macroscopic canister of Electroplasma. If matter gets in the way of a beam of light, the beam of light is not received by the relay and it changes it's quantum state, this in turn changes the quantum state of several other relays next to that first relay instantly. A computer reads the quantum state of each relay and if the quantum state changes, it will momentarily discharge the Electroplasma, this electroplasma will be instantly accompanied by neighboring discharges and it will create a sort of arc. This arc is full of fast moving Electroplasma which can destroy ships and projectiles. The grid is so complex that even a rock sized particle will simulate a discharge and will be burnt. This amount of discharge makes one of the best known Kinetic barriers in the known galaxy.

This next article is about the black Elegance and the history behind this race.

Spoiler for Hidden:
  The Black Elegance, before being called the Black Elegance, was called the blue cross. The blue cross were a large span of humanoid aliens that had conquered a large portion of the universe. The Blue Cross is not their real name, but it was the name given to them by the Revice due to their species flag, which resembles that of a blue cross. The flag resembles a lot of the philosophy of the blue cross at the time, the blue cross believed strongly in the application of the butterfly effect and aspects of choice and destiny, believing that a single persons choices effect not only that persons life, but everyone else around them. Thus there is strict discipline and a totalitarian society where each individuals choices are carefully monitored in order to ensure the survival of the races future. The blue cross represents destinies crossing paths, the real name of the blue cross was never currently known, the blue cross didn't actually name themselves in an ordinary fashion, but simply called themselves "our race" or "us" never actually giving a definite or applied name to the blue cross. The blue cross and Revice engaged in the War of the Sapience, a long 40 year direct conflict between the Revice and The Blue Cross. The war itself started when The Revice, in the early age of expansion, sent a drone to investigate the blue cross, which at this time was quite a strong force. The Blue Cross managed to capture the spy satellite and read through and translate it's communication logs which suggested that the Revice were planning to invade the Blue Cross, the Blue Cross retaliated with a preemptive strike which sparked the 40 year conflict.

  The Blue Cross was a very sustaining force, where every individual had a role. Although the society was very controlled by the leading authority known as the Sheron, the leading authority was strictly designed to offer the best and most prolonged existence of The Blue Cross species. However, as The War of the Sapience was being lost by the Blue Cross as the Revice were advancing from one side, the Blue Cross decided to expand into other territories to gain a tactical advantage, expanding into the Sentinel territory. This gained the strict attention of the Sentinels, who saw this as an act of aggression and decided to wipe out the Blue Cross in a quick and easy move, the sentinels advanced their fleet onto the Blue Crosses home planet, which formal name was Crotan, but the Revice called Crimson due to the crimson appearance of the planet from space. The sentinel army that amassed would of completely destroyed the stretched Blue Cross forces so they underwent the infamous Exterminator Project. The Exterminator Project was a project designed to create one hundred and fifty immortal, regenerating super soldiers that would become the strongest single weapon against the forces of the universe. This project was generally considered a success, the project lasted three years and went off many technologies from other species and already found technology from the Blue Cross, however as the Sentinels massed on Crimson, having destroyed all major colonies around it, the Blue Cross were forced to awaken the super soldiers early. The Exterminators were a relative success, being extraordinarily durable, has fast regenerating capabilities, unbelievably advanced intellect and had almost immortal and unstoppable lethal skill. However, the Exterminators posed no loyalty to the Blue Cross, in fact they had quite a superiority complex as sentient beings, instantly seeing their creators as inferior and using Crimsons highly advanced Tesla grid (as seen in the article above) to actually discharge electro-plasma on Crimson itself, destroying almost all of the home planet of the Blue Cross. Then, the 150 exterminators fought on the sentinels and ultimately drove them away, the Exterminators then acted as unstoppable space pirates and became, without doubt, the most influential group of people in the universe.

  The crushing defeat at Crimson lead to an even more devastating defeat by the Revice as the War of the Sapience concluded with the Revice being the victor. With the Blue Cross utterly scattered and defeated, they retreated back and went into hiding, the blue cross weren't heard from again for another 250 years. The Blue Cross had actually been doing strong reconnaissance and information gathering, especially gathering the logs of the exterminator project. The exterminators to the Blue Cross was seen as a failure and was also perceived as the single reason why the race collapsed, this strengthened their philosophy of destinies and how single choices ripple throughout the universe. The Blue Cross had believed that it was merely societies choice that had fundamentally lost the war, so they all unanimously agreed for the smaller units of society, such as the workers, to be rid of what they called, "the torture of choice". Thus, with their information gathering, highly advanced mechanical suits, known as Exo-suits, were given to every Blue Cross member, but the most highest authority. The suits were a marvel of technology, they allowed for the manipulation of light creating cloak shields, allowed for the manipulation of light to disguise members  as people of other races, they allowed for quick regenerating ability based on the technology used to manufacture the exterminators, allowed for visors that can see an extended range of the electromagnetic spectrum and were hard and black armor that the Blue cross could use. These suits main effect though, was to administer a small brain-altering drug that caused the subject of the suit to be completely loyal to the Sheron and the Blue Cross as a whole, while still being able to think. This drug allowed for completely loyal, but effective, soldiers that could think of new strategies on the fly and got rid of the "torture of choice", however an adverse effect of the drug is that it caused the race to become sterile, being unable to reproduce through standard means. The suits regenerative abilities allow for a Blue Cross soldier to live for over 4,000 years, however off-springs are still created through artificial insemination means.

  The Blue Cross wasn't spotted by the Revice until the suits had already been administered and a society had already started growing, the Revice, being unable to recognize that they were blue cross, gave them their current name "The Black Elegance" as their suits were black and the species seemed to use primarily stealth tactics. The Black Elegance were first seen as more of a nuisance than anything, not even a threat, they appeared non-hostile to all other alien forces. However, it was later revealed that many high ranking officers of the Revice, and high ranking officials of other races, were actually disguised Black Elegance spies. The Black Elegance had favoured stealth and espionage, they became seen as an extremely large threat as they were able to move through the ranks of another enemy race without ever being discovered. Despite all these spy networks within other races, their motives were never known until later. Their motives were actually to find a device or method to be able to see and predict the future, the Black Elegance thought this was the best method to advance the Black Elegance race, as the ripple and consequences of choice could be predicted and seen, allowing the Black Elegance to change their methods to suit the perfect needs of their race. However, such a method was not discovered until Kyle opened a gateway from our dimension to the Realm, which showed how individuals could manipulate space-time given the right Darkon enhancing synthetic implants.

  The Black Elegance saw this as the main method they could achieve fortune telling so they immediately attempted to utilize it using the Darkon implants. However, this led them to be corrupted by Saintri', an overseer of the realm (more on this is discussed in an earlier article). Saintri' had promised that the Black Elegance could gain the power of seeing the future through the Realm overseers, however the condition for them to get this is that all members of the Black Elegance were given the synthetic Darkon implants in order to be closer to the Realm overseers. This was of course a lie, however the Black Elegance, desperate for such technology, obeyed the Realm overseer after consulting the Shenon, this lead to the entirety of the race being corrupted by the Realm, this race remains the only race that was systematically corrupted by the Realm. The Black Elegance now obey, with divine and unmatched loyalty, the Realm overseers. Memory of the promise they were given is long forgotten and most Black Elegance soldiers are unaware of their lives before they had the Darkon Implants, making the Black Elegance the servants of the Realm. The Black Elegance still uses primarily espionage technology and still contains some sapience and free-thinking ability, despite being completely loyal to their new masters. The Black Elegance have the strongest Darkon manipulation powers of all the races, with the exception of the Realm creatures. The Black Elegance are now primarily used by the realm to gain information on their enemies. The Black Elegance still remain a strong problem for the race of our universe. After Kyle closed off the gap from our universe to the Realm, the Black Elegance were still being contacted by the overseers, as some of the realm was still intact, the overseers could still contact the Black Elegance and still manipulate their movements. Thus even as the Realm threat stopped becoming so much of an issue, the realm could still, and have always, acted through the forever loyal Black Elegance.

More detailed information on The Revice discovery of Darkons and the principle of how Darkons work.

Spoiler for Hidden:
The discovery and mathematical fundamentals of Darkons

  What is now the most important aspect of technological development, the discovery of the elementary particle the Darkon, was first proposed by the physicist James L. Rimey in 2056. In an attempt to unify the four forces of the universe (Electromagnetism, Weak force, Strong force and Gravity), Rimey sought to suggest that the Higgs field, the field that gives all particles mass, and gravity are the same concept and are caused by the same phenomena. With that, he also proposed the idea that a “gravity particle” would exist, this particle would be an elementary particle, smaller than quarks but above all, undetectable. The reason these particles are undetectable is because they simply do not react with matter or energy, thus they cannot be observed as any electromagnetic wave would simply pass straight through any of these particles. Because of its detectability, it has been given the famed name, Darkon. It was ultimately not accepted within the scientific community.
  Although James L. Rimey was unsuccessful in unifying all four forces, he began an age of immense innovation and discovery bringing forth a new branch set of physics that would soon become the ultimate ability of space travel and technological development. Rimey concluded that Darkons could not be detected, but at the same time concluded that the effect of a Darkon could be detected if it were to accelerate.  It was experimental scientist Lee Chen who first observed the effect of Darkon space-time diffraction in 2081. Using modern particle accelerator techniques through high energy electromagnetic propulsion in a cyclic particle accelerator, the scientists at PEAR (Particle Energy and Acceleration Research) was able to create extremely high energies, creating a tiny black hole. This black hole created a warp in space-time that simulated a wave, rather than a vortex, the black hole itself was only very temporary, it created a random fluctuation of space-time fields that were not expected by normal physics progression. It was Lee Chen who first noticed that these effects were because they managed to accelerate Darkons around the room, with an uneven amount of Darkons the time ripples within the room were also uneven causing strange movements. Using this Lee Chen suggested the idea of Dark Energy, an energy that is released from Darkons that affect other Darkons and mass, this Dark Energy is very similar to the Dark Energy of the universal expansion.
  Lee Chen then used the information of the time ripples and his new idea of Dark Energy and suggested the three laws of Darkon propagation.

  1. Darkons can only be moved through Dark Energy.
  2. Darkons emit Dark Energy by accelerating.
  3. The effect of the time warp given by Tw = a / d (Acceleration / Distance from the ripple)

  Through these laws, scientists were able to better grasp and accept the idea of Darkons and in 2083 Scientist Clark Meterson proposed the idea of a Darkon reactor to consistently move Darkons. The proposed idea was to exploit phenomena called the “Open Wave Effect”. This effect was due to the fact that Dark Energy was not a scalar field but rather had direction, either towards or away from the source. Generally, in linear movement the front of Darkon (or in front of the Darkons direction of movement) will have space-time refraction away from the source, stretching space-time rather than condensing it. However, behind the Darkon (the opposite direction of movement) space-time is condensed. As all Darkons are pushed towards another accelerating Darkon, this would mean that Darkons being in front of an accelerating Darkon would be pushed away from the original Darkon, causing them to accelerate themselves, causing its own time ripple effect which would attract the original Darkon particle to accelerate even more. On the other side however, Darkons directly behind the accelerating source will be “trapped” and accelerated towards the original moving Darkon, causing the original moving Darkon to slow down. The combination of effects can be exploited to create an infinite regression of moving Darkons, by simply moving a cluster of Darkons in a circle, the Darkons in front would increase speed and so would the Darkons in the back, however each would decrease speed as well, creating an infinite propulsion of speed increase and decrease, causing infinite acceleration and deceleration. (In other words, the Darkons vibrate as they spin)
  Certain problems with the reactor factor in the reason why linear transformation isn’t possible. Because of the third law of Darkon propulsion, Darkon energy will inevitably decrease and the effects of the vibrations will be extremely small, as the particles in front of the Darkon are pushed forward, the effects of the Darkon Energy those Darkons release is reduced, at the same time the Darkons pulling the initial Darkon backwards, will eventually catch up to the original Darkon, making their influence much stronger. This means that the original Darkon will eventually, inevitably, stop accelerating, a process known as Darkon decay. This effect does not happen in perfect circular motion (though perfect circular motion is rather difficult to implement, meaning that a Darkon reactor can still have a limited lifetime of about 1 – 1,000,000 years).
  In the year 2094, when black hole creation (the only known way to move Darkons) was perfected, the first Darkon Reactor was created. In the same year, Meterson also discovered how to convert Dark Energy into Electrical Energy. A generator, partially placed in a Darkon reactor and allowed to move, will experience the constant vibrations and changes within the Darkon reactor, causing one side of the generator to move and thus generate electricity. This generation was extremely great and led to the most efficient form of energy transmission to date due to the sheer amount of force the space-time dilation caused, the problem was however, the effect of the Darkons within the generator drastically reduced the life-time of the Darkon revolution (as the Darkons in the generator itself slowed down the movement), meaning that Darkon Reactors could only generate electricity for roughly 23 years, however the quantity of energy released in this time period is extraordinarily massive, equalling about the same amount of energy the sun released in 50 years in an ideal reaction.
  With this and Darkons space-time Dilation effects, also created the material Echelon in the year 2152 (almost a century after Darkons were first proposed). Echelon was meant to be a material that was not affected by Darkon field manipulation. The material had an extremely wide array of masses around it that would slow down any accelerating Darkons within the vicinity, and more so reflect the any Darkons. As Dark Energy was applied to the surface of Echelon, Darkons would move to the inner layers of the Echelon. The outer layer would contain dimples of highly concentrated Darkons, which would be moved towards the initial Darkons that acceleration, causing the Darkon to be pulled back by the tremendous force. This would slow down the new moving Darkon and would thus not cause any Dark energy movement to leak out of the Echelon. Echelon is usually rated on its durability (huge Dark Energy waves may not be effected by the backwards Darkon force and may not stop), how long it lasts (the effect causes the dimples to become malformed, meaning that the Echelon does become damaged) and how much time dilation fields were leaked. By the time of 2900’s (the time in which Exterminators were created) Echelon B-94 was the most efficient form of Echelon, with a leakage field of 4.53 x 10^-15,  a durability of a field of 940 PDJ (Peta-Dark Jules, the 940 is roughly the power of a direct STVN burst from a space cruiser).  Despite this, some larger Darkon waves still would bypass the Echelon barrier. Since the proposition of James L. Rimey Darkons have been instrumental in FTL travel, technological advancement, weaponry and introduced humans to the universal society.

The scale DJ (Dark Jules) is the fundamental measuring system used by the Revice to measure Dark Energy levels.

Unit    Example
1 DJ    The amount of Dark Energy emitted from 1 nm of Darkons moving 1m.
1 KDJ    The Dark Energy required from a Warp-storm noticeable at 25 cubic metres
1 MDJ    The Dark Energy required from a Warp-storm noticeable at 414,504 m3
1 GDJ    Roughly the amount of Dark Energy elite Realm Guardian can produce.
The amount of Dark Energy required of STVN travel for 19,832,817.6KM.
1TDJ    The amount of Dark Energy a small Dark Energy reactor produces in 21 minutes.
    The amount of Dark Energy required for STVN travel of approximately a light year.
    The Dark Energy required from a Warp-storm noticeable at 10x the earth volume.
1PDJ    The amount of Dark Energy that is required to destroy non-protected Battle cruisers.
    The amount of Dark Energy required for STVN travel almost 20,000,000 light years
1EDJ    The amount of Dark Energy in a typical warp storm of a large STVN jump.
    The amount of Dark Energy believed to be contained in the Jewel Crown element.
    The amount of Dark Energy required for STVN travel to the Realm once.
1ZDJ    The amount of Dark Energy a Realm overseer can produce in a century directly.
    The Dark Energy required from a Warp-storm noticeable at a billion milky ways.

The formula to figure out how far one can travel via STVN with a certain amount of Dark Energy is given by…
D = (A^E)^E
D = Distance (in km)
E = Dark Energy (in DJ)
A = STVN constant (1.230527025)

The reason for this formula is because as the faster the Darkon is accelerating, the more back Darkon force is being applied in a natural log scale, as well the amount the other Darkons are being captured by the initial Darkon, the slower other Darkons will be captured (due to the initial Darkon slowing down), giving an log scale in a log scale, giving the double exponential formula as follows.
  Effect of a random Darkon wave in volume for the formula is very simple, it’s
  D = (A^E^E)^ √3.

Information about the many large scale conflicts of the Revice

The War of End:
Spoiler for Hidden:
  "The War of End" is ironically the beginning of a large interstellar conflict between the Revice and the Union (Also known as the Atos or Symbias). Humanity, after discovering darkon technology, went out to space to explore the galaxy and find new planets to settle on. This ultimately drew attention from the many races, the first extra-terrestrial beings the humans went into encounter with were actually the Xenox, but the encounter was relatively neutral as the Xenox did not see the Revice as a threat. After a long time period of space exploration and colonization, the Revice eventually gained the attention of the Union. The Union, believing the Revice to be growing at a pace in which they could be perceived as a threat, attacked any Revice home world that was in their controlled sectors. Humanity saw this as an act of aggression and declared war on the Union, not knowing exactly how powerful the Union actually was. A large squadron of Revice warships, known as the "First Fleet" went straight into the Union sector to destroy as many ships as possible. The First Fleet was very unsuccessful, being destroyed almost immediately after first contact, with over 24 Revice ships being destroyed, humanity eventually realized the seriousness of the threat the Union held.

  Small conflicts on the borderland of the Human and Union sectors began, with the Union ultimately being victorious. The war had not reached full scale proportions, however humanity was getting more and more desperate as time went on. As an act of desperation, work into powerful genetically altered soldiers that would equipt power armor, known as "The Final Hope" were made. These super soldiers were brilliant designed with observations of the Blue Cross and through captured technology of the Union itself. As an act of aggression in order to cripple the Unions chain of command, the leaders of the Revice sent the Final Hope soldiers to one of the Unions council worlds, known as Atria. 15,000 Final Hope soldiers went to the planet, fending off against over 300,000 Union soldiers as well as an estimated 2,000,000,000 Union civilians. The Final Hope however, were ultimately successful, despite over 85% of the entire task force being killed. The council world was destroyed and any Union minders (the Union Leaders) were killed.

  The Union saw this as a severe act of aggression and sought to ultimately stop the war, in what is known as the Great Purge. The Union, intercepting transmissions from the Revice, quickly found the location of humanities home planet, earth, and caused a full scale invasion. The invasion lasted a mere 46 hours, with over 75% of the whole Revice task force being centered in the battle. Although the battle was quick, many Union soldiers and warships were defeated, however ultimately the Union was successful and the planet earth was destroyed. Seeing as the only people who were permitted to be in space were the military (AKA the Revice) it is said that humanity died and only the Revice remained. The Union, after destroying most of the Revice and all of humanity ceased any conflict, believing that any more resource or casualties taken on their side will be a waste. It took over 300 years for the Revice to come of power once again and with the discovery of the Elements, opening of the Realm and through the military leadership of the exterminator Kyle, humans eventually became the most dominant species in the galaxy. After the war was completed, super soldiers were created through cheaper means that were almost as efficient, these new soldiers were aptly named "New Hope" and now make up the brunt of the Revice elite division.

The War of Sapience:
Spoiler for Hidden:
  The War of Sapience happened around 230 years after the War of End, the war of Sapience details the war between the a constantly growing and rebuilding Revice against the already established Blue Cross. The Revice, who had been observing the Blue Cross and their technologies through interception, had eventually discovered several weak points in the Blue Crosses military infrastructure, the foremost being their aversion to individual choice. The Revice thought that an invasion would mean total capture of their technology, which would spear head the Revice's advancement in the universe ten fold. The Blue Cross were well aware of the observations of the Revice, but they saw the observations as a harmless regard of a neutral occupier, they eventually captured a spy satellite which contained transmission information from some Revice commands to rouge Revice soldiers. The spy satellite unveiled to the Blue Cross the Revice's intention to invade. This caused them to retaliate in a preemptive strike, attacking border worlds in the Revice Regions. The most infamous being the Battle of Frost, where 300 Blue Cross warships captured a high profile Revice planet for observation equipment of the Blue Cross sectors.

  Exploiting their aversion to individual choice was the key corner stone of the Revice victory over the Blue Cross. As the Blue Cross took most of their orders from highly intelligent officials, they were very tactical and skilled in full scale combat. However, a deeply dynamic battlefield based on smaller base parties attacking the Blue Cross meant that quick decisions had to be made which would be hard to accomplish given the state of the Blue Cross Society. Due to this, the Revice Opted out away of full scale invasions and instead move towards multiple small scale invasions on each planet, causing a divide and conquer strategy that eventually left the Blue Cross slow at reacting. Despite the Blue Cross's superior technology, because of this strategy the Revice would eventually drive back the Blue Cross and have the Blue Cross sector decrease and decrease, this part of the war lasted 36 years.

  The war was eventually won when the Blue Cross gave the attention of the ever powerful Sentinels, causing them to create the Exterminators and having their home-world destroyed (see Black Elegance Article). With the Sentinels and Exterminators busy fighting each other, the Revice were able to reap most of the technologies of the Blue cross, spear heading their tehcnological advancement, and allowing them to become a much more forbiddeable race against the galaxy.

The Quarantine Wars:
Spoiler for Hidden:
  The Quarantine Wars details a combined effort of the Revice and the Xenox to block the invasion of the Plague. The Plague, or Radio, were irradiated skull beetles that the Xenox unknowingly unleashed onto the universe. Being able to destroy hosts and control them, converting them to breeding grounds, as well as the ability to propagate and survive in space (due to absorbing energy through solar radiation and the ability of mass hibernation) these beetles became a large threat to all races in the galaxy. Most races of the galaxy were affected by the plagues, with the exception of the Terronix and Sentinels.

  The Xenox used most of their resources to stopping the Plague but were unable to defeat the skull beetles. Seeking help from other races, being unable to ask the Union for help due to past conflicts, Sentinels and Terronix being unaffected and as well not friendly towards the Xenox, as well as the Blue Cross being essentially destroyed, the Xenox only had the Revice to turn to. The Revice, being neutral to the Xenox and being affected by the plague themselves, decided to create an alliance with the Xenox in order to stop the plague. The brutish ferocity of the Xenox in warfare, as well as the tactful discipline of the Revice, allowed for an extremely dangerous force.

  Both races eventually discovered a weakness with the plague, they needed solar energy to survive, and although they could hibernate in deep space, any stars that were too far away would kill the skull beetles before they could get to their destination. Using this exploitation, the Xenox and Revice destroyed stars that would act as bridges to other parts of the galaxy, then they would exterminate any skull beetle presence in any of the already bridged galaxies. This strategy effectively meant the skull beetles were confined to small sections, known as Quarantine zones, the effort of the Revice and the Xenox allowed for the Plague threat to be controlled. After the war against the plague, the Revice and Xenox still contained some friends ties, although small conflicts arose from time to time. The Xenox is considered to be the only race that would ever side with the Revice in a conflict.

The Great Civil War:
Spoiler for Hidden:
  Upon Kyle's opening of the Realm, the power to manipulate darkons with the mind became readily accessible. This led a lot of people to put in auto-generating darkon implants found within the Realm Creatures in order to warp space-time and become more powerful soldiers. However, this allowed connection with the Overseers to be easier and soon enough most people who had undergone the procedures became brain washed by the Realm creatures. The cult of renegade humans grew and grew in size, many people would be drawn in through lies and propaganda made by these cults, while many more would have the procedure forced on them, as well a want to be able to achieve telekinesis was still present causing the cult to grow in size.

  The cult caused a lot of infighting, with the ease the cult could have as disguising themselves as Revice citizens, and the space-time manipulation abilities the cult had, the cult became an incredible threat to the Revice, despite only making up less than 10% of it's population. Fighting ensured throughout all fronts of the battle, men would fight their friends as they were turned by the approaches of the realm. Soon whole planets were captured by this cult, aptly named "heretics". However, with the superior numbers of the Revice against the Heretics, it was inevitable that the Revice would win, the war only lasted about 6 months.

  Despite this, the war had taken its tole on Revice troops. Mass casualties were generated due the Heretics ferocity, space-time shifting powers and guidance of the overseers. The war also took a social tole, creating much more sovereign control over the population. Some conspiracy theorists of the Revice believe that the Heretics were manufactured by the Revice, or allowed to happen, in order to gain more control over the population. After the Heretics were defeated by the war, the limitation of darkon implementation was severely limited, people able to bend space-time were deeply feared. Settlements of the Heretics still exist however, these settlements are relatively small though, causing little threat to the Revice.

The Universal War:
Spoiler for Hidden:
  The Universal War is the largest, most influential, devastating and catastrophic war the entire universe has ever known. Spurred on by the Revice's opening of the Realm, most races were shifted into a state of shock, disrupt and panic due to the new enemy of the Realm. The introduction of the Elements as well caused a drastic power grab as most races saw this new idea as a concept to gain inter-galactic dominance. Despite this, the war took some time to start. The first known conflict to arise was between the Realm Creatures and the Terronix, due to the Terronix hive mind (Known as the G-O) was really a renegade Realm Overseer. Rising tensions between the Xenox and the Union also was a great cause of the universal war, the tensions came between a power struggle between territories. The Xenox was heavily attacked by the Realm creatures and the Union used this window of opportunity to wage a full scale war on the Xenox, which also caused the Realm creatures to attack the Union, causing a war between the Realm Creatures, Xenox and the Union.

  The Xenox requested help in the defending of their race to the Revice, but due to the Great Civil War (seen above) the Revice were unable to help, this broke a fragile truce between the Revice and the Xenox causing them to be engaged in war too (As well as getting all other races to be engaged in war). The sentinels saw this war between races as a useful means to wipe out any threats of sentient life, so they began massive assaults on the less populated areas of each race, however the Terronix countered the Sentinels as they planned to destroy the G-O. This lead the war of the Realm Creatures closer to the Sentinels, causing the Sentinels to be wrapped into the war between the Realm Creatures and the Terronix. As well, the black elegance emerged, which were the brainwashed blue cross disguised as many races leaders (see above), causing even more fighting to occur not just between races but within races. Finally, the Xenox as a form of desperation being attacked at all sides, moved to the quarantine zones and unleashed small deposits on races, adding them to the battle. Eventually, these two super cells of war combined and created an all out war between the Revice, The Union, The Xenox, the Heretics, the Plague, the Realm Creatures, the Sentinels, The Terronix and the Black Elegance,

  The Revice however, had most of the Elements and thus had a very far advantage. As well, they had Kyle, the original opener of the realm and the most powerful warrior in the universe. This allowed them to find out about most of the artifacts, such as the G-O's true identity and the existence of the universal cannon, a cannon that can destroy the entire universe that was installed by the Realm as a final safe code when they created are universe. The existence of the Universal cannon finally led to a mad dash by almost all the races. The final climax of the war happened around the Universal Cannon, which was ultimately teleported to the Realm by Kyle and activated within the Realm. The aftermath of the war led many of the former powerful races weak and vulnerable, while the Revice was as powerful as ever.

Due to my last article exceeding the maximum amount of words, here's the continuation of it that details what happened after the Universal war

The Great Conquest:
Spoiler for Hidden:
  As a direct result of the Universal War, the Revice became considerably more powerful and became the dominant species in the universe. The existence of an all dominant species became a problem for all the other species of the universe, especially as the Revice were aggressive and soon sought to create an empire. This resulted in the Revice dominating, destroying or absorbing all the races in the Galaxy in what is known as The Great Conquest. The first conflict in this regard occurred with the Union. Due to the now weakened Union, as well as the original ties to the Union in destroying Earth, the Revice targeted them roughly 30 years after the Universal War. The full scale attack on the unprepared Union caused severe casualties in the Unions side and minor casualties on the Revice's side. The Union, getting desperate, started using more powerful weapons and tactics, utilizing warp storms and technology based of the Realm, this caused a devastating conflict between both the Realm and the Union but eventually the Revice had gained the upper hand. The war ended when the last Union Minder caused the star of his home planet system to hyper-nova when a Revice invasion began, this caused the death of the whole system including much the Revice, but it also ultimately caused the destruction and disbanding of the Union.

  The sentinels, now aware of the power the Revice had, fled to a different part of the system well away from Revice territory. Despite this Revice warships followed and defeated large portions of the Sentinels, causing severe casualties and unit/program loss. The Sentinels however did manage to flee. The Xenox were given an option to join the Revice empire or be obliterated. At first, resistance was given, with large Xenox warships fighting on Revice worlds, these conflicts were soon stopped however when the speed and efficiency of the Xenox being defeated was noted. Eventually the Xenox realized that without joining the Revice there species was due to extinction and decided to join the Revice empire and assist them conquesting the galaxy. The Terronix however decided to fight against the Revice. The unprecedented and unpredicted strength of the Terronix threat became a significant concern to the Revice-Xenox Coalition.

  The war between the Terronix and the Revice-Xenox Coalition lasted decades, massive casualties on both sides were felt but eventually the overwhelming power of the Revice meant that the Terronix was ultimately defeated. The G-O telepathically communicated with the Oscar, the son of Kyle, telling him about the exterminators and how the Revice would be the universes undoing. The G-O threatened to re-open the universe to the Realm if the Revice continued, the Revice then opted for a truce with the Terronix, under the condition that the Terronix leave their system. The G-O reluctantly agreed and left the system with the rest of the Terronix. With all the major players either destroyed, dominated or chased away, the Revice began an age of prosperity and became a truly vast and expansive empire.

The War on Exterminators:
Spoiler for Hidden:
  Oscar was the son of Kyle, who in turn was the son of Sam. Sam was an exterminator, the aforementioned powerful super soldiers and strongest warriors in the universe. Kyle became known as the most influential person in the universe as he had the genetic structure of the Exterminators, as well he opened the Realm and was infused with the elements, allowing him to have extremely powerful space-time warping powers, being capable of destroying entire battle ships with his mind. Oscar was the son of Kyle, he had no such space-time warping abilities but dedicated his life into replicating it so he could achieve the greatness of his father. The problem was, due to his father cutting off the Realm, the space-time abilities Kyle had would of been impossible as the Realm was almost entirely cut off. This caused a great anger in him about his father, not liking his fathers ideals and causing a great desire to be more powerful than his father.

  This anger and motivation was greatly increased by the G-O's telepathic transmission to Oscar, informing him about the exterminators and where he could find the original plans to create them. Oscar saw the exterminators as a way to achieve his goal, which caused a life-long conquest to find the exterminator plans and re-create them in their intended glory. These plans went almost unnoticed and were covered up by Oscar, Oscar eventually fled the Revice and was believed to of gone into hiding, but indeed he was simply working on his exterminator project. Oscar was not seen by the Revice for another 8 years, in which time Oscar discovered the exterminator plans, created the exterminators and perfected them, beyond the capabilities of the original exterminators. As well Oscar was able to install controlling neural transplants into the Exterminators themselves, ensuring they would not revolt.

  Oscar was able to create an army of over 100,000 exterminators, that were even more powerful than the 151 exterminators that threatened the galaxy, such a long time ago. This massive army of exterminators became the largest single threat to the Revice, almost all of the Revice's resources were put into destroying the exterminators, but the army was almost unstoppable, killing billions of Revice lives for every one exterminator life. Eventually the war was ended by Alexander, life-long friend of Sam, Kyle and Oscar, after defeating and killing Oscar, gaining the ability to control the Exterminator army. Using this ability, Alexander decided to destroy the exterminators rather than control them, as he believed no man should have that amount of power. The unfortunate truth was though, the exterminators had already destroyed a significantly large portion (over 80%) of the Revice empire, causing the Revice to move back to primal routes and planetary travel, rather than interstellar travel. This war marked the end of the great and long intergalactic period, causing the end of all civilization that were capable of intergalactic travel, many of the old technologies lost or destroyed. Perhaps a new series of species will spring up after some time, or maybe the sentinels will come back, or the terronix. Only time will tell..

This article is about the Union of aliens formally known as the Symbias. Considered one of the most advanced and utopian of societies, they are responsible for the destruction of earth and the transition from humanity to the Revice.

Spoiler for Hidden:
  The Union, calling themselves the Symbias, called by humans as the Atos, are a galactic wide collaboration and coalition of multiple alien species that  live in the same society with the same morals. The species were first started with the extremely intelligent species known to the Revice as "Minders", they are reminiscent of octopuses and are the discoverers of electro-plasma as well as one of the first species to discover Darkon technology. The minders home planet is unknown, but they now live as the overlords of the entire Union, considered the highest of authority, they are given high ranking political and military roles. The minders first military brute force was what the humans call strikers. Strikers are armored, humanoid beasts, they are strongly scaled and are usually quite bulky. How the minders got the alliance with the Strikers is unknown, but it is believed that domination through advanced technology could be the case. The next race to join the Union was what  the Revice call "The trooper", they are lizard like scaled beings with a thin on the back of there neck, they joined the Symbias about 300 years after it's creation and now make up a majority of its population. Troopers are known for there patience, discipline and respect and make up a brunt of the Symbias military. These make up the main "authority" members of the race, however more species exist in the Symbias. This includes the Scyther, animal like insect-bipeds with large talons, they're usually used to swarm an enemy. As well as the Champion, extremely strong four armed beasts that make up the Symbias's heavy support. Both these species have very limited intelligence and hence are only usually used in the military.

  The Symbias is an extremely Heirarchical and ranks are in general based on race, although exceptions have been known to be made. Because of this heirarchy, the races of the Symbias are given names based on there general rank in society, translated to English these ranks go as follow (with A being the highest rank and F being the lowest rank)
  A - Minders
  B - Strikers
  C - Troopers
  D - Champions
  E - Scythers
  F - Non-Symbias races
  This heirarchy has actually been one of the most stable influences that has kept the Symbias together for such a long time (over 30,000 years). The heirarchy is put in place so that each species strengths are used to there full potential, the strikers being generally more intelligent than troopers (and less obedient) are given higher ranks for more strategic positions. While the Scythers are given low ranks in order for them to participate in the work force and Symbias sports. Pretty much each species is happy with there ranks, although small disputes and revolutions do occur, this is usually halted quite quickly. The troopers and Strikers are extremely devoted to there Minder overlords, treating them almost like gods. The minders also rely heavily on the troopers and strikers ability for protection.

  A majority of the Symbias technology is based on the substance known as Electro-plasma. A charged plasma that is capable of self-sustained states, liquid forms, extreme conductance, modulated temperature control and self-sufficiency even outside a vacuum. The technology is considered a marvel by other species and no other species has been able to master it's creation like the Symbias, it's creation is kept as a closely guarded secret. From early on, the Symbias have refused to use Darkon technology as weaponry, the reasons for this is in a cultural and religious sense. They believe the technology will bring on an age of de-evolution for the symbias happening to use "the dark technology" that has plunged most other species into a state of conflict and oppression. As well it is feared that the technology itself can cause the fabric of space to tear apart. The only time they use darkons is in STVN travel and suspected electro-plasma creation.

  The Symbias have many wide-spread religions but the most followed is the "Incartus". The Incartus is philosophy that the universe, as a whole, is a reflection of the live within that and how that life prospers. The belief is, that as life changes and becomes more unruly, so does the universe around that life, which can lead to darker paths. Darkon technology is considered one of the largest factors contributing to this disorder in the universe and is another reason why it isn't often used. A less followed religion is known as the "Grado", Grado is the belief that the minders are the creators of the universe, even some minders themselves believe there ancestors created the universe. Grado followers give there utmost loyalty to minders and have a belief in the old minders.

  The Symbias's relationship with other species has been mixed to hostile. The Symbias first war was with the tribal Xenox, this war led to a stalemate and eventually the war simply concluded with no real victor. However, the Xenox and Symbias have at very hostile and conflicted relations with each other and are considered arch rivals. The Symbias were the first species to declare war on humanity and eventually destroyed earth. The Revice were originally called the United Nations Spacial Exploration Unit, however during the war it was unofficially renamed (and then official near the destruction of earth) Revice, due to the Symbias always referring to them by that name. It means "New Foe", and despite the Revice existing for a very long time, Symbias continue to call Revice soldiers Revites (the single noun of Revice), keeping there name in hold for history.

  The Symbias have had very hostile relations with the Black Elegance, after during the Universal War it was discovered that one of the most influential minders was a Black Elegance causing the closest the Symbias have come to a mass revolution. The Symbias have had neutral relations with the Sentinels, there territories are relatively far from each other so disputes are not very common. The Symbias do have hostile relationships with the Realm, as almost every other species in our universe, as well they did indirectly help the quarantine wars by supplying the Revice and Xenox with supplies. The Symbias also have relatively hostile relations with the Terronix, especially after the Universal War.

  The Symbias remain one of the longest lasting species in the galaxy and are probably the most technologically advanced species in the galaxy. Considered by many to a be a Utopian society, many species from hostile races have defected to the Symbias as immigrants, though most of these people are not very accepted.

Re: My Universe

So I've been, for the last few months, been working on a concept on turning this into a game. The best platform for it would be a top-down exploratory shooter, kind of a mix between genres.

BASICALLY, the setting takes place Slightly after the events of "Sam" and takes place during "Kyle's" reign, in this regard this is BEFORE the universal war and wouldn't end during it, though there will be references for it beginning to happen in case there would be a sequel.

The story would follow you, the protagonist, who lives on a colony and begins exploring the universe, very early in your findings you come across an ancient artifact, which turns out to be an element, this gives you extremely powerful warping abilities (darkon manipulating abilities). Immediately people notice the discovery and you're abducted by the Revice central military. In this regard, as you are untrained, they can't enlist you but they want don't want to let someone with such a great power bestowed upon them go to waste. Assuming you'd support humanity, the commander asks you to get go around the galaxy rallying any support you can for a coming war between the Xenox and Symbias/Union. The Revice plan to attack during their conflicts and take them both out in one go.

  The game would have heavy RPG elements and would be very exploratory. The galaxy would be split up into regions which would be split up into solar systems, I expect a large number of planets to explore, with some having very little on it but a few interesting items and enemies, while others may have a civilization and lots of quests to do. The main quests will have you moving around galaxy trying to rally support from each star system, even rallying support against alien (non-human) people, including some renegade or splintered Union and Xenox soldiers. All forces you gather will be available to you during the final mission, if you gather no forces you'll have almost no chance of beating the game. You will encounter many, many side quests that will have you do little odds and ends, to giant battles and so forth,  side quests may assist you in gathering forces for the final mission or may simply give the player extra goodies including some companions to follow you around. Like most RPG's there will be an emphasis on choice and player actions will influence the world and change how people react, I plan to have only ONE invincible character in the entire game. A few key decisions will have giant effects on the game world including decisions that can destroy entire solar systems. Finally, some decisions will be especially large, including the ability to separate from the Revice and begin fighting for the Xenox OR the union.

  The gameplay will be a mix between RPG, RTS and Top-down shooter. In normal missions it will be a top-down sort of shooter, the camera will be directly above the player and the player will most likely be small and not intensely detailed. You can go up to people and talk with them, in which case some portion of the screen will have a close up on the characters face and give you dialogue options in response to the voiced NPC. There will be a variety of weapons, armours and gadgets to wear that I've already been working on, each weapon will handle differently based on the stats accuracy, weight, damage, range and type (Type will vary from bullet, plasma, explosive, laser, etc). The shooting mechanics will work similar to crimsonland, in the sense that you have a cursor that you can move around the screen while you move the player, the cursor determines where the player is aiming. When the player shoots the cursor expands into an "area of spread" which depends on the weapon the player uses, his skills and the distance the cursor is away from the player. The scale will differ quite significantly in the game from small scale battles to large scale battles with snipers, the camera will automatically zoom in and out based on how far away an enemy may be or so forth, of course the player can control it himself and will have the option to disable the auto-camera adjustment.

  For much larger scale battles, the player can take control as "commander' in an RTS like minigame. Although it is RTS like it still includes all the elements of the normal mode, except in this mode you can zoom to full map and begin sending armies around. You still have full control of your player though and can join in to the armies you send and start shooting/killing all the enemies. You'll also be able to control companions in RTS-like mechanics, where your companions will follow you around, but you can also select them and order them to go into certain positions or attack certain people. There will also be a "starfleet" mode which will be entirely RTS-like, with no FPS elements altogether. This will be for the very, very large battles including the final mission, in which you can go from starfleet mode to weaken certain planetary defenses, than move to a planet and start playing the aforementioned RTS mode. The resources you'll have in some missions vary, you may have little soldiers or a huge army, what you have during the final mission is based on your actions before the mission and how many factions you have recruited. As said before, the final mission will be hard enough that if you don't recruit enough people it can be borderline impossible.

  The RPG elements work with some simple skills. Haven't figured it all out yet but it'd be pretty generic, along the lines of "charisma, strength, steady, science, stealth" etc, etc. You'll have levels which will unlock perks that may have prerequisites similar to fallout. Apart from that you also have a separate leveling system for your Darkon powers, which level up based on how much you use them. If you use darkon powers too much you may become "corrupted" which will cause some stat decreases and some strange hallucinations to occur (as well as unique dialogue and missions in certain scenarios). When you are corrupt however, your darkon power increases, meaning it becomes a tradeoff of whether you'd prefer to fight with weapons or use, basically, magic. Leveling up your power yields more vulnerability to corruption and allows you to unlock new and exciting powers. Finally one last separate system is "knowledge", in which you get points for exploring new planets, reading data logs and just taking an active interest in the games lore. The knowledge points will unlock some passive perks that may help you in certain situations that normal perks will not. There will be 5 knowledge trees with 5 (or 10) perks each "Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Psychology, Computing" , everytime you unlock a level you can pick a new perk from any of the knowledge trees. Once you master three knowledge trees, a special mission comes on where you're nominated for the equivalent of a nobel prize xD.

So yeah that's basically what I've got. I'm thinking of learning how to use Unity to get an idea on how viable it will be to make with a team.

This seems really cool!

My only gripe is that you most likely won't be able to do this without at Lear a decently sized team!

But if this is finished, it would be a pleasant surprise.

 FDF forever!

But if this is finished, it would be a pleasant surprise.

The design strategy will be pretty simple. It'll be based on a modular design, so different components can be made independently of the other components, an example is having quests in different star systems that don't rely on other star systems. So basically, all I really need to do solo is create a framework in which people can start building in, basically an engine, I'd already be using Unity to make it of course, but I'd have to modify it to make it easier to use for making this sort of game. Once I've constructed that, I can make a few sample quests and then begin to show it off, people can come on from there and because it's a modulated approach, people can work independently of the team, but we'll all review each others contributions of course.

A bit more history on the Revice and humans, further fleshing them out and their technology.

Spoiler for Hidden:

  The Revice are humans, that's the most important thing to remember. In the 22nd and 23rd century, as mentioned in an earlier article, humanity had developed the use of Darkons, allowing for huge energy generation and interstellar travel. While Darkon reactors were made in the 2080's, it wasn't until about 2120 that darkons were widely used by many nation states to explore the solar system. At this time, earth had reached their maximum population of 13 billion, the rate at which humans were born and humans dying began to level off. The earth was experiencing catastrophic effects from global warming and climate change, causing mass starvation in the poorer countries and large class dispersal in the richer countries. While the advancement of technology maintained a steady standard of living, it was clear that space exploration was required to fix these problems. Large space stations were designed, colonies were developed on Mars, the moon and several other locations around the solar system. By the 2200, about 7% of the population lived on other planets.  A mathematician named Gallori Lorenza calculated the necessary designs to create STVN travel, (Space-Time-Vortex Navigation), this travel would allow for travel among hundreds of thousands of light years and would mean the first proposal of interstellar travel. In the mid 24th century, the first probes were sent out using STVN travel, communication through darkon entanglement, they were sent in many different directions, attempting to discover habitable worlds. Humans had discovered many worlds and began to colonize them in the 26th century, they would eventually come across many other alien species and eventually discovered the two large empires of the Symbias and the Xenox. By the 26th century, the population of humanity was around 28 billion, with about 56% of the population living outside of earth.

  During this time period, the Xenox were in trade with the Symbias, giving them much valuable resources from star systems that they controlled. The Xenox and the Symbias have always had conflicted fronts and trade routes, there have been many documented wars between these two sprawling empires. The Xenox, having a monopoly on a particular resource their star systems, had increased the trading price, which the Symbias would have to reluctantly accept without causing another war, or going into parts of space controlled by the Terronix or the Sentinels. That was until the Symbias discovered humanity, with their much more advanced technology they were able to track down where the humans home world was, seeing it as an uncharted star system that was still relatively rich in the resources they needed, they opted to take our star system. The Symbias attacked the humans, seeing them as more of a tribe than an advanced civilization with the battle being at first incredibly one sided. However, with the uncoming attack humanity banded together and fought off the Symbias as much as they could, the Symbias under-estimated the humans and had only sent in a small force to take them out, this small force was eventually beaten back. One key invention the humans had was the soldiers named "The Final Hope". These soldiers, made by investigating thousands of years of research in genetic engineering completed by the Blue Cross (another, smaller empire, that the humans had been spying on), were super soldiers for lack of a better term, they were smart, capable and had were able to heal wounds that would be fatal to any other man, in mere hours. This advancement created the Final Hope Regiments, which thought back the small Symbias force that threatened our solar system.

  However, this victory was short lived. The Symbias, seeing how they underestimated humanity, quickly took in a much larger force to take the solar system. This force was hundreds of times larger than the small force that took us so long to fight back, truly there was no hope for humanity. The Symbias quickly breached humanities defenses and entirely atomized earth, killing every single life-form on that planet. Humanity, in that short period of time, had lost half its numbers, not just from the ones living on earth but also the ones defending it. Humanity, scattered and devastated, maintained the name "Revice", which was what the Symbias had called them, it means "tribe". The now formed Revice formed a radical shift, while half the population was destroyed, the half that remained were the ones that were exploring, who had great scientific and military knowledge and thus were able to kick start humanity in a relatively short period of time. The knowledge to create the Final Hope was lost, with the destruction of earth and the destruction of the Blue Cross in the War of Sapience, this meant that Final Hope soldiers were considered valuable assets, due to their regenerative abilities they did not age, by that time there were about 23,000 soldiers. New soldiers, called the "New Hope" soldiers were also created, using what knowledge had been maintained, however these soldiers were inferior to the Final Hope and were mainly used as heavy infantry.

  About 300 years past and humanity had once again refilled its numbers, while still being one of the weakest empires in the galaxy, they had formed themselves to be at least noticeable in the galactic market. Naturally, hostilities between humans and the Symbias were present, but alliances were made between humans and the Xenox, so no party took any real action. The Symbias maintained control of Sol and the galaxies around it, while humans had created a new home. Humans were finally becoming part of the galactic community and were seen more as another player in the great game of galactical consequence. In this time humans had split up into several different nation states, the largest one was the General Assembly, the nation state that comprised most of the citizens of the revice, having in it about 52% of the entire revice population. The second largest state was the Revite Military Front (RMF), which acted as a more autocratic and militaristic nation state with the revice. While formally considered its own unique nation state, in practice the RMF acted more as the military arm of the General Assembly, making up 76% of the revice military. The third largest was the Union of Frontiersman, which was a nation state comprised of the more far-reached colonies, that were not part of the populated areas of the General Assembly. These made up 13% of the Revite population. The fourth largest was the Chinese and Asian republic, a group that had splinted from the rest humanity from the start, origination from the Chinese and Eastern space program, they remain relatively isolated from the rest of the revice, only giving trading routes and the likes, this made up 11% of the population. The rest of the 1% of the Revice were made of rebel tribes, warlords and splinter groups. As well as defectors who moved to other races like the Symbias.
