Six thousand years ago...
A war. A war so grand and vast the powers unleashed shattered worlds and tore out the hearts of stars. As one the civilizations of the galaxy, unified under the flag of the Order, rose up against an ancient and malicious evil - the Grox, cybernetic warlords ruling the heart of the galaxy. The Order intended the war to bring about the collapse of the Grox, opening up the centre of the galaxy to colonisation and trade, and to bring the great powers hidden within the Galactic Core into the hands of the galaxy. The war was supposed to usher in a new era of peace.
It failed.
The Grox were destroyed, but not before trillions had died and planets had been stripped bare. The Order collapsed, and civilization regressed into an age of violent border squabbles and strife. Across the Five Arms empires fell to piracy, or even further into the recesses of tribalism and planetbound conflict. Chaos engulfed the galaxy.
Until recently.
One hundred years ago a small alliance of pacifistic species on the Galactic Fringe located one of the Order's forgotten warships. Seeing at as a way to bring peace to the galaxy they reactivated the ancient vessel, mounting a crusade of peace from the Fringe, all the way down their arm of the galaxy to the Core. Trekking through the derelict-filled Grox Hinterlands these pioneers flew onwards, towards the shining, pulsating heart of the galaxy. None know what powers they discovered there, but it was enough to bring order to hundreds of space-faring races, establishing the Confederation, governed by the gargantuan Council of Sapience, constructed around the Core itself.
Stability swept across the galaxy. Peace and cooperation brought about the first forays in millenia through the maze of wormholes throughout the galaxy; in time, the labyrinth was fully mapped, and avenues and highways of trade and peace sprung up between the wormholes. Huge corporations were established, such as Omnium Mining and Kode Transportation, plying the galaxy for resources and cargo. The empty, shrivelled husk-worlds scattered throughout the Hinterlands were resettled, and soon it became not a place of fear and darkness but a vibrant realm of life.
Fuelled by the Conferation's success dozens of powers, from those taking their first steps into space to ancient powers that have slogged through the aeon of conflict, have risen across the frontiers of the galaxy, each one bursting with ambition. Some wish to colonise and to mine. Some wish to spread their faith. Some wish to sample the sights of the galaxy. Some even seek to bring down the Confederation and establish themselves as the dominant power in the universe.
Which path will you take to supremacy?
