Turn 2, 10'000 - 20'000 PE:
And so 10’000 years pass in the universe! This is a record of what happened during that time!
- Deprived
of the once rich, now depleted, fuel deposit clouds of their home planet
Gerasene, The Legion corporation (@Joshinken)
turned their focus to other alternative sources of energy. Harnessing the
power of their home system’s sun, the organization engineered, built,
launched and put into operation the “Legion Swarm” - an enormous fleet of
solar energy conductors swirling directly around their star! The
corporation now had access to near endless, super concentrated, solar
power.
- Not
content with the previous deca millennium’s colonization efforts, a Grand
President of the corporation launched another attempt at populating the
stars - now with the power of the Legion Swarm! Again the corporation
spread to nearby solar systems, establishing successful colonies that
flourished into full planetary occupation! This time, six new planets
were settled!
- LG3:
A world of thick, pink tree’d forests - blessed with super durable
black ore.
- LG4:
A world of towering and awe inspiring yellow quartz mountains.
- LG5:
A pleasant world of green plains and blue rivers - blessed with docile,
mammalian beasts of burden.
- LG6:
A red gas giant!
- LG7:
An imposing world of perfectly flat glass plains! The world vibrates with
enlightening energy!
- LG8: A world of misty moors! The world’s red moon beams healing energy in the evenings!
- The
armies and battle fleets of the Sigmaites Clan (@Scarius ) were sent across the stars to support and
protect the peoples and planets of both the Jamaexina Clan (@xaosseed) and House von Sacher Sariyah
(@fjav).
- During
these 10’000 the three clans became intertwined with one another -
through their military aid, engineering works and shared devotion to the
Cult of Olympe, Mother of the Universe (@arkbrik)
- as well as shared dependency on the glorious Spice of Magel
which became vital to the worship of Olympe during this time (@jim Parkin).
- The
spiked metal epaulette’s of the Sigmaite clan were replaced with organic
and armouring spiked coral shoulder pads at this time. The hard coral
would grow over the shoulders and back of the Sigmaite warriors, eventually
covering their heads - then their entire bodies - after years of military
service (The organic coral armour was benign and did not interfere with
the wearer’s biological processes and could be removed easily when
desired).
- Grand
Warrior Priestess Arianna developed the “Coral Scythe” during this deca
millennium. A concealed weapon of tiny living coral colonies within the
wielder’s body. The colonies could shoot tiny, poisonous coral darts from
the finger of the wielder that would kill a target in moments. Both the
warriors of the Sigmaites and the clergy of the Cult of Olympe (@arkbrik)
employed this deadly, stealthy, near undetectable, weapon.
- During this time the people of the Sigmaites Clan became slavishly devoted to the Cult of Olympe, Mother of the Universe (@arkbrik)!
- And
so, the great coral cathedrals of Bilaltam Ya left that planet and floated
into the heavens! Invigorated by their worship of Olympe, mother of the
universe, the Jamaexina Clan (@xaosseed) completed the grand and glorious
“Neo-Coral” project. Alongside House von Sacher Sariyah (@fjav) the two
clans created the first ever living, organic, purely biological space
structures and ships! The first structures sent into space were, of
course, those grand living cathedrals of Olympe! The cult of Olympe
(@arkbik) had become all consuming to those Neo-Coral focused clans! (As
had widespread use of the Spice of Magel (@jim Parkin).
- The Jamaexina Clan
abandoned their crude and chaotic aesthetic of Polyp-Core at this time, and
led the way in the design movement known as “Organic Gothic” - the
intricacies of the ancient gothic style recreated in infinitely more
detail through the form of living coral structures! A grand accompaniment
to the aesthetics of Neo-Chivalry!
- Freed of the confines of a planet the fleet of Jamaexinian coral cathedrals, devoted to Olympe, mother of the universe, traveled across space! One Jamaxinian religious leader - their name now lost to history - put this proselytizing mission into action, hoping to see the love and worship of Olympe be spread across the entire universe. By the end of the deca millennium their dream was realized, the Cult of Olympe the most widespread religion in the stars - most planets having at least one organic gothic neo-coral church or cathedral
·
Working alongside the Jamaexina
Clan on the successful Neo-Coral project, House von Sacher Sariyah (@fjav) took
the technology and made fleets of enormous, living, coral spaceships!
These were some of the finest, fastest, most well armed ships the universe had
ever seen - all in the immensely ornate and impressive Organic Gothic
style.
o
Though less devout than their
partners the Jamaexina clan (@xaosseed), the
cult of Olympe (@arkbik) was prevalent in the House, dominant and responsible
for the house’s ideological orthodoxy (Alongside extensive use of the Spice of
Magel [@jim Parkin]).
o
Many ships in the Neo-Coral, or
Bahamut, fleet included ocean sized bodies of water within them. Enormous
tanks for colonies of krakens of Aiza-Zwe - the most important non-human
creatures in House von Sacher Sariyah society.
o
The flagship of the Bahamut fleet,
“The Lail”, had the biggest and grandest of these tanks. The Lail and several
smaller neo-coral ships were sent out on a grand colonizing mission for the
House, along with terraforming refugees from the Arcturan Zhivos (@trent B).
Unfortunately tragedy befell this fleet, a rogue storm of asteroids smashed
through the ships, destroying them! The cracked and riven hulls of the
neo-coral ships released a moon sized amount of salty water into the void of
space! This water formed into a sphere of dark water known as “The Space Sea of
Lail”. Although the anomaly still exists in the void, there was no survivors
from the colony fleet.
o The “Tragedy of the Lail” had a rather extraordinary effect on the people of House von Sacher Sariyah. A deep sadness, and sense of mourning overcame the people, more so than would be expected from the loss of a simple colony fleet. Historians ever since have debated about what may have been aboard The Lail to cause such sadness in the people of the House - but that is the realm of conjecture and it will not be reported on here.
- The
Keepers of Magellan (@jim Parkin) continued their universal narcotic spice
monopoly for another 10’000 years! Humans (and other sentient users of the
spice) now live up to an additional 200 years (as long as their supply of
Magel is continued)! The Keepers, perhaps somewhat insidiously, coupled
the rites of the Church of Olympe with the use of the narcotic spice of
Magel. The Keepers, along with the Jamaexina clan (@xaosseed), House von Sacher Sariyah (@fjav) and The Chatikrate dynasty (@arkbrik) now all being key
stakeholders in the worship of Olympe, mother of the universe. The ruling
bishops of the church are generally all co-members of one of those four
organisations.
- The
Sigmaites (@Scarius) also play a heavy role in the Church of Olympe - but
generally in the sect’s security arm - more so than upper
management.
- Withdrawal
from the spice beyond the normal 100’ish years of human life is generally
deadly within a week or two! Don’t run out!
- Outside
of the use of the spice in religious rites, general day to day use is
widespread throughout the universe!
- The Keepers of Magellan also generously hosted a large
contingent of Biolōxué Refugees on Magel (@trent B). This small colony
thrived over the deca millennium - become a full blown Biolōxué city! How
kind and glorious! It was always noted that the planet felt much…damper,
since the arrival of the Biolōxué
- The sands of Magel wettened during this deca millennium - the entire planet now become all swamp!
- Their
planets, population and religion strong, the people of the The Chatikrate
Dynasty (@arkbrik) spent the deca millennium
strengthening further and preparing to protect all theirs that is good!
The holy crystalline army of Olympe was formed at this time! Encased in
suits of ornate (organic gothic) glittering crystal armor, the knights of
Olympe the perfect illustration of Neo-Chilvary!
- The
crystal armour of the knights of Olympe was not just for show - made of
an alloy of several materials it is the most protective battle armour in
the universe!
- The
knights of Olympe were, of course, associated with the Church of Olympe,
mother of the universe, but most often in a ceremonial role. The active
security of the sect was almost always handled by the Sigmaites Clan (@Scarius ) and their
stealthy coral warriors.
- Worship of Olympe, and use of the Spice of Magel, was widespread throughout the peoples of the Chatikrate Dynasty - but they tended to have a more aloof and dry relationship with their deity (not as fervent and zealous as some of her more recent converts).
- Still
somewhat wealthy from the last deca millennium’s weapons trade (the market
faltering some what over the last 10’000 years due to a shrinking amount
of conflict), the APEX Solutions corporation (@Revenant's Quill) focused on colonizing new planets (to
create new markets and find new resources!). This was a success! Three new
planets were found, colonized and then populated into planet wide
settlements!
- Though
weapon production and export continue for APEX Solutions, their products
have now become somewhat redundant. The universe has become a (nearly
totally, but not utterly) peaceful place - no needs for weapons!
Especially not ones as old fashioned as APEX’s small arms!
- The
planets now under the control of and populated by APEX solutions
are:
- MA1:
A world of dark green forests, a super hard yellow ore found in abundance
just beneath the surface of the soil.
- MA2:
A planet of calm moors, populated by enormously strong orange beasts,
reminiscent of giant rhinoceros!
- MA3: A planet of rolling green hills, with mountain sized deposits of pink crystal!
· The Tranchierqlim were unseen for another 10’000 years (@jimble). It was assumed that the foamy, pink seas of their home world Ozesitala had consumed them all…
·
On their pristine world (a world popular
amongst the universe’s tourists for its cleanliness and freshness) the
scientists of The Fraterni Renunti (@wrongtube)
moved their focus from clean fuel and energy - to that of clean,
vegetative architecture! Through an elaborate breeding and genetic manipulation
program, after 10’000 years, the The Fraterni Renunti Clan developed the
universe's first seed grown architecture! Homes, buildings, entire blocks of
structures, could be implanted into tiny seeds that would grow and unfold with
just simple water, soil and sunlight in a matter of days!
o
The, near magical, grown, city
super structures also continually produced food and hydrating liquid for their
residents. The structures could easily be changed and re-shaped as required, or
with the injection of a totally safe and organic compound wither down into
super rich fertilizer for the next structure.
o
A pragmatic people, the The
Fraterni Renunti, under the guidance of Autarch Subphilomon took the most
mystically appealing components of the Qalb Occulta (@symbolic city) and Queen Olympe (@arkbrik) and formed them
into one cohesive religion; The Qalympiate! While, objectively, the best source
of spiritual guidance in the universe - the faith did attract many adherents
beyond the planet Ognos. The people of The Fraterni Renunti did keep
themselves philosophically clean of outside religious influence with the
adoption of their own personal cult, so the religious program was not a failure
for the clan.
o
The Fraterni Renunti hosted a contingent of Biolōxué Refugees on Ognos
(@trent B). The colony was not a great success though (due to climatic and
cultural conditions of the planet), and the Biolōxué population withered and
eventually collapsed within several thousand years. The Qalympiate held
a grand ceremony for the passing of the Biolōxué
on Ognos but some of the more xenopbic groups within the clan welcomed their
disappearance from the planet.
o Enormous shipments of Renu Milk, the super fuel, were sent from Ognos to several external organizations - greatly helping those groups with their own plans and projects!
·
The wide spread, but largely shun
Cult of Qalb Occulta (@symbolic city) remained ubiquitous but ignored by the
peoples of the universe at large - its rituals and beliefs remaining too
obscure and esoteric for the masses!
o
Although there was no wide-spread
adoption of the cult in 10’000 years, the temples throughout the universe
remained. These temples were still unassuming and small but grew in subtle opulence
over the deca millennium! The symbols and signs of the cult were shunned by the
greater public - but some individuals of note (some particularly powerful and
wealthy) were slanderously accused of taking part in secret Qalb Occulta
rituals.
o
The general ambivalence to the Qalb
Occulta continued when late in the Deca Millennium their homeworld, Maqead
Regum, was invaded by the insectile men of The Liliang Entomo Clan (@papyrus1) ! A most horrific and genocidal
invasion took place - the ant men of the Liliang Entomo not content with the
simple occupation of Maqead Regum spent 100 years killing every single last
human inhabitant of the planet! The peaceful cultists of the Qalb Occulta were
in no way equipped with withstanding the invasion! Their homeworld was lost and
the rest of the universe did not respond!
o The cult of Qalb Occulta continued though, diffused as it was throughout the universe, now just deprived of the resources and population of its home planet!
·
At the beginning of the Deca
Melliumum Grand Leader of The Liliang Entomo Clan (@papyrus1 ), Dolofonia Loudong warped her enslaved people
into fearless melee warriors! The many armed, chitin skinned, alcohol blooded,
super strong insectile peoples of the Liliang Entomo would happily die to carry
out an order of any one of the Loudong bloodline! The Liliang Entomo battalions
trained and fought as one single organism of many parts! Without fear and able
to traverse any terrain - and not require any specialized equipment beyond
their own insectile bodies! As long as the Liliang Entomo had room to
grow and breed - they would have limitless warriors for the armies, all at the
unquestioned command of those of the Loudong bloodline!
o And so, several thousands of years later when the training and indoctrination and breeding of Dolofonia Loudong was complete, The Liliang Entomo Clan under the leadership of a new Loudong traveled to the world of Maqead Regum (@symbolic city ) and swiftly crushed and killed the cultists and civilian populations there! All humans were, over 100 years, cleansed from the planet - as was their infrastructure - to make room for more Liliang Entomo breeding warrens! The march of the many limbed Liliang Entomo had begun!
·
The secretive Yishpugnae Clan
(@finnice) slowly and carefully spread out amongst the stars. Breathing in deep
heavy fumes of the Vapour of Zhulorum the clan slowly, slowly and carefully
planned the colonization of planets. Successfully colonizing and fully
populating two unique and valuable worlds:
o
ZY1: A world of towering pink
mountains wreathed in clouds, immensely rich in both a variety of metallic ores
and particular minerals that are incredibly useful in the production of
electronics.
o ZY2: A world of white milky oceans, dotted with islands of pale pink quartz. The crystal - available in an overwhelming abundance - is perfect creating super powerful computing processors.
- The
grim and reclusive Ounjẹpupọ Olominira Eniyan Corporation
(@gendernihilist), not deterred by their previous 10’000 years of sadness
plodded into the stars - willing to withstand even more death and sadness
in their pursuit of new planets.
- Their
grand leader at the beginning of the deca millennium, Onírẹlẹwosan, gave
her people the gift of the “Halo of Tears” a wreath of tubing worn around
the head, crowning the black full body wrappings worn by the corporations
members. When threatened the Halo of Tears released a cloud of gas that
induced instant sleep in those not wearing the body coverings of the
Ounjẹpupọ Olominira Eniyan. This allowed the corporation’s members to
gently move now sleeping, would be attackers away from their persons -
rather than being killed.
- Some
Ounjẹpupọ Olominira Eniyan still lost their lives even with the Halo of
Tears’s protection as they would prostrate themselves before to the
sleeping beasts, offering them so many prayers and benedictions that the
gas would wear off, the beast awaken - and rip the praying corporation
member to bloody parts.
- Regardless,
three new planets were colonised, and then grown into full planetary
occupations!
- IO1:
A world of mountainous purple crystal, fungal growths here produce
invigorating spore dust. The most dangerous creature here being dog
sized, spongey beetles!
- IO2:
A world of indigo seas, the kelp forests abundant and rich in protein
and calories! The most dangerous creature here being enormous, cow
skinned sharks!
- IO3:
A world of purple jungles gifted with super rich soil. The most
dangerous creature here being fanged, scaled gorillas!
- Over
the deca millennium Ounjẹpupọ Olominira Eniyan analysed the dangerous
creatures of their four worlds - calming, training and befriending them
(Regardless, death by flora or fauna is still the largest contributor to
early mortality for the corporation’s members).
- There are rumors that the reviled and violent Arcturus Bloodline Clan (@ceaselessCarbine) would cleanse dangerous flora and fauna from a planet before the Ounjẹpupọ Olominira Eniyan colony fleets would arrive - enacting bloody orgies of destruction for sport and fun on the helpless wildlife…but these rumors are unsubstantiated, and probably just gossip.
- After 10’000 years of doctrinal disputes The Hermeya Clan
(@roshlev) exploded out into the stars with a holy mission of human
colonization and terraforming! Their homeworld of Silenna was near empty
at several points during the deca millennium but populations there and in
the five other planets the clan settled were strong by 20’000 PE. Along
with the five planets the clan settled and terraformed there was five
moons that were terraformed - now hosting sizeable populations of
Hermeyans too!
- SY1: A black rocked world, filled with ranges of volcano! Famed
for its supply of thermal energy!
- SY2: A world of rolling purple hills, filled with trundling, cow sized
lizards!
- SY3: A world of rainbow sands, littered with glorious gems!
- SY4: A world of yellow green plains, with towering deposits of
pink ore!
- SY5: A world of jungle caverns, the high gravity here perfect for
producing athletes!
- HMoon1: A luscious moon of flowing rivers and green
plains!
- HMoon2: A verdant moon of green fields!
- HMoon3: A purple crystalline moon of impressive crystal cluster
structures!
- HMoon4: A calm moon of green fields and blue lakes!
- Hmoon5: A moon of temperate woods and forests!
·
Beyond endless documenting of the
movements of astral bodies, The Szarstern Union (@gran) successfully completed
the most audacious of projects! The movement of three planets from their home
systems, across the universe, to the home system of The Szarstern Union!
Special “planetary sheaths” were developed that clad around the moving planets
as they hurtled through the void! These sheaths provided artificial sunlight
and climatic conditions that emulated the planet’s natural state! Warp drives
could not be employed, so the most powerful of rockets (already developed by
The Szarstern Union), powered by Renu milk (@wrongtube)
slowly pushed the planets through space over the 10’000 years of
the deca millennium!
o
The planets SH2,
Caval, Heidong and Monteer Apisiri Invic of The Cavalerie Centuriate, The
Zhandou Albayanat, Henshin Labs and The Naurey were all successfully
transported (@middlecyclone , @NondairyGiant , @Altchester, @sageDaMage
)! Now all homeworlds in a single system, known as
the "S.T.A.R.F CLUSTER" by the Szarstern Union, the three
organizations could very easily and cheaply (without the need for intergalactic
travel) trade or work together on future projects!
o
All three homeworlds were
unaffected by the transportation process! Life continued as before on those
worlds, as if nothing ever happened! What a wonder!
o Although their homeworld was not moved, a colony of Biolōxué refugees (@Trent B) were settled on Heinmani! The colony thrived in the swampy climates of the planet and grew into a city of Biolōxué by the end of the deca millennium!
- Monteer
Apisri Invict, the homeworld of The Naurey Corporation (@Altchester)
became, after 20’000 of its people focusing on leisurely pursuits, THE
premier tourist planet of the entire universe! The best, brightest, most
famous, most powerful people amongst the stars would wait whole life times
just to visit the planet! Tickets to the homeworld would often be
inherited by grandchildren, the most prized possessions of family lines
waiting centuries for a chance to visit! Once on the soil of the planet,
the pleasures waiting for a visitor there were…unmentionable! Words do not
do them justice! Once a holiday on Monteer Apisri Invic is
finished most humans experiencing soul crushing depression - their lives
never the same after the endless euphoric dopamine soak that a visit to
the Naurey homeworld is!
- The
Naurey, already obscenely rich, became even more so! Masters of pleasure
and knowing, exactly, what it is that a sentient person desires!
- Being the brightest light in the universe, the most powerful, the most influential, the most entertaining and wonderful, etc, individuals of the universe all petitioned to visit and, if worthy, live on Monteer Apisri Invict! Over the last 10’000 years only the highest, most powerful and brilliant of the universe’s aristocracy were granted the boon of living there alongside the Naurey!
·
After 10’00 years of planetary
travel, The Zhandou Albayanat Clan ( @NondairyGiant
) emerged from their planetary sheath….different. The people of the clan now
spoke with one voice - literally, all members of delegations sent from the clan
spoke in perfect unison. A rather disturbing thing to experience from all
reports. Visitors to the clan’s home planet Heidong reported it as being
totally uniform, patterned and repetitive. Its bland cave gardens, streets and
buildings all perfect symmetrical duplicates of one another. The clan’s people
too have become identical in height, uniform and appearance.
o
The only allowance for non
identical buildings, structures and places remains the cave memorial shrines
for the lost colony fleets of the last deca millennium.
o Regardless of their uniformity the peoples of the Zhandou Albayanat Clan are perfect specimens of humanity - all genetically gifted physically and mentally (if a little boring to have casual discussion with).
- A
much more peaceful deca millennium passed for the clan now known as The Arcturan Zhivos (@Trent B). Though
vassals of The Arcturus Bloodline (@ceaselessCarbine
), the Zhivos were largely left to their own devices - dwelling in
the wild outdoors while their rulers remained in their grand armored
fortresses. Vassal and ruler developed a mild and symbiotic relationship
over the millennia - the Zhivos optimizing the climate for the Arcturus
Bloodline, and the Arcturus providing, somewhat patriarchal, protection
for the Zhivos. Though unfortunately, after the heat and passion of the
“Slaughter of the Biolōxué” campaign - racist and xenophobic localised
genocides of the Arcturan Zhivos
by bear mech warriors of The Arcturus Bloodline were not unheard of, nor
totally uncommon, during the deca millennium.
- Beyond
their initial colonization efforts The Arcturan
Zhivos were adopted as refugees by several organisations throughout
the universe. These colonies grew into heavily populated Zhivos cities by
the end of the deca millennium.
- Masters
of terraforming, any worlds that The Arcturan
Zhivos dwelled on was blessed with luscious and enjoyable climates
and bountiful organic production. Some historians do comment on the fact
all of these worlds felt…damper, after the introduction of The Arcturan Zhivos population.
- Regardless
of the two organisations relationship on the planets of the Dominion of
Arcturus - The Arcturan Zhivos have not
yet been allowed to settle on the soil of their master’s
homeworld, Kharkiv.
- Thanks to the ascendancy of Neo-Chivalry (@middlecyclone) as the dominant culture throughout the universe, the Arcturan Zhivos were painted as heroic and tragic victims of the “Slaughter of the Biolōxué” campaign - the clan was viewed fondly by nearly all sentients of the universe. The virtue of their survival against great adversity and danger, a clear exemplar of neo-chivalry!
- To
defend their dominion The Arcturus Bloodline Clan (@ceaselessCarbine)
spent thousands of years constructing and deploying moon sized space
fortresses! The terrifying Locus Castella Ursi! These monumental defensive
bases could unleash hordes of troops, mechs and fight spacecraft in mere
moments (or barrage targets with weaponry directly from the base)! The
scientists of their hapless vassals The Arcturan
Zhivos (@Trent B) were put to work, an invaluable asset in,
developing the artificial atmosphere for a base of such a size!
- One
of the bear forts was sent beyond the dominion of Arcturus, deployed
menacingly in the home system of the Ounjẹpupọ Olominira Eniyan (@gendernihilist)
- Unfortunately,
100 years after the deployment of the great bear forts internal conflict
ripped apart the great The Arcturus Bloodline! The commander of each fort
fancied themselves the true ruler of the clan! A civil war followed! Bear
tank fought bear tank! And by the end of the deca millennium each planet,
and each bear fortress of The Arcturus Bloodline had its own regional
ruler, a Arcturus Warlord - separate and jealous of the other nearby
rulers!
- The
once unified and glorious Arcturus Bloodline Clan had cannibalized itself
into a patch work of petty warlords by the end of the deca millennium!
The damning view that the rest of the universe had (instilled from
thousands of years of neo-chilvaric tales painting them as such (@middlecyclone) ) of the Bloodline,
that they were disgusting and bloodthirsty barbarians, was confirmed! So
crass! So vile! So un-heroic!
- By 20’000 PE the dominion of Arcturus was plagued by endemic fighting and battle between the various clanlet warlords of the bloodline! A most dangerous sector of the universe! The Arcturan Zhivos (@Trent B) didn’t seem to mind much.
· The Black Room Clan (@Local Cryptid) was disengaged and uninvolved with the major events of the empyrean over the last 10’000 years. Their populations on their home planet and tiny, vestigial colonies, remained small, yet stable. A mundane and disinterested people, with not much for the historians of the day to comment on…
·
The
best of the universe’s aristocracy traveled to Monteer Apisri Invict
(@Altchester) to retire, but when they were young and eager - they traveled to
Caval to learn (@middlecyclone)!
Generation upon generation of the best and brightest traveled across the
universe to be taught the ways of neo-chivalry at the colleges of The Cavalerie Centuriate Clan! By the
end of the deca millennium the thoughts and philosophies of The Cavalerie
Centuriate Clan were THE orthodoxy of thought for the overwhelming majority of
the universe! Beyond entertainment, beyond moral codes - Neo-Chivalry was the
basic architecture of most human’s minds in 20’000 PE!
- As
one of their colony planets was hurtled through the universe in its
planetary sheath, en route to join the The
Szarstern Union’s home system, the grand leader of Henshin Labs (@SageDaMage) at the start of the deca
millennium, Derek Callisto, announced another grand push for colonization of the stars! Six colonies were established, that then flowered into full
planetary occupation for the corporation over the course of the deca
millenium!
- SH4:
A world of white quartz mountains, home to many diamonds!
- SH5:
A world of misty moors, whose sad purple plains breed people of great
vigor and hardiness!
- SH6:
A world of red jungles, the soil seeping wet with ancient black
oil!
- SH7:
A cavern world, its caves filled to the brim with nutritious red
mushrooms!
- SH8:
A world of volcanic ranges, volcanoes that regularly spew out pink
diamonds!
- SH9: A world of grassy plains, prowled by vicious and near sentient enormous snakes!
- For
10’000 years the scientists of the Alburtuqaliu Fylí Clan (@zeruhur) attempted to artificially
synthesize the wondrous crops of Mushajara
Foods! But, even with the assistance of an adopted colony of Bioloxue
refugees, (@Trent B) the project was not a success! So far the clan has
not been unable to replicate the delicate genetics of their tasty and
health giving crops! Who knows, a break through could be around the corner
in the next 1000 years or so?!
- Regardless, the islands of Juzur Mushajara remained ever abundant
and productive - the enormous amounts of food the clan exported to the
universe’s markets kept them incredibly wealthy!
- An entire island of Juzur Mushajara was gifted to the Zhàngtùs
Bioloxue (@Trent B) refugees after their slaughter by the Arcturus
Bloodline! They live there till this day!

The Grand Leader
Aristeidis el-Harroun of the clan, particularly associated with the Juzur
worker’s league, implemented a new belief system into the minds and hearts of
the workers of the clan! The Rawaqi Philosophy was one of acceptance
and joy in the world as it is! The philosophy spread quickly, becoming a cult,
a religion, a way of life - the workers of the universe accepted it gladly into
their hearts! Not just the workers of Alburtuqaliu Fylí (which the majority of
the universe’s basic laborers) but all those who toiled in lowly and forgotten
trades and professions. Over the millennia, as the Rawaqi Philosophy was
followed through to its logical conclusions - the productivity of the workers
that were part of the belief began to stall, to falter and slow and at
sometimes….stop. What joy to just sit and experience the world exactly as it
is! Millions of workers ceased to be workers and became Rawaqi Monks.
Monasteries sprung up in the workshops and warehouses of the universe! At the
end of the deca millennium a real shortage of labour was felt throughout the
organisations of space - the lowly jobs and tasks no longer being filled or
completed. If it was not for the continual exports of Mushajara Foods the Alburtuqaliu Fylí may well be facing
bankruptcy (not to mention food production was slowing because of the Rawaqi movement…
