# Appearance

The Shinidt features a set of six tentacles, each of the same length and equally spaced around its mid section. These tentacles end in barbed hooks which it uses to grab onto surfaces and to latch onto prey or those otherwise deemed as a threat.

Shinidts feature a bulbous body which is believed to be made mostly of a sturdy plates held to a flexible membrane. A series of antenna-like extrusions protrude from its plates. The purpose of these "antennae" remains unclear.

Mivinari

The Mivinari are a race\species of people that have become endangered. The reason for their endangerment remains unclear, although there's evidence to suggest it had to do with what certain Mivinari call the Grand Ascension. There are many remnants of their society left behind throughout Vanquera. One primary ruin that is linked with the Grand Ascension is Avimiria, but exploring it is dangerous as it resides in the Shattered Lands.

The Mivinari are spindly, featuring plastic-like features. Where a face would be is more flat features that could be likened to placing a bag over one's head. Their bodies are decorated with extrusions like that of peeling skin, only they don't shed it.

## Beliefs

Much of their culture and history has been lost. Most of what remains tells of a Grand Ascension, although the details are sparse. They worship the Celestial Avi Adu Mivi,

Certain sects of the Mivinari have renounced the idea of the Grand Ascension, calling it "hopeful but unsubstantiated". They instead link it to Mana Deities, Mechabeast, and the acts of other civilizations wiping them out, in addition to a disease that only affected the Mivinari.

## Ruins

A total of roughly 133 sites have been linked to the Mivinari, but only 41 have been proven with absolute certainty to be Mivinarian in origin.
Miriam Lovelock

According to legend, Miriam Lovelock was the first ever Shadewalker.

## History

Lovelock spent much of her adult life as a scholar, spending days on end in her study without any contact with the outside world. Her library was her second home, often falling asleep at her own desk after long nights of study.

It was when her library was burned to the ground by a gang of rogues that she would take a different path. In her many years of studying, she gathered a wealth of knowledge and insight into Mana Casting. She concluded that her understanding of Mana was deep enough that she could get vengeance. They had taken her livelihood.

Adopting a new, darker persona, Miriam would hunt down the gang that had wronged her. She would follow them into a tomb, slaughter them one after another, spilling their blood on an ancient casket.

As punishment for her lust for vengeance, she was cursed by the Celestials to forever desire Mana, becoming the first ever Shadewalker. She would come to give birth to many Shadewalkers throughout her life. It is believed this curse had also given her immortality, and that she roams Vanquera to this very day.

It's unclear whether this story is merely fiction or historical fact.

Sarinda

Sarinda, or the Sarindite Desert, is a region of Vanquera inhabited by the vagabonds of the world. These people have each left their homes in search of a better life, or were forced out of them due to all manner of different conflicts. Having fled from hostile homes, Sarindites are hostile by nature. They are distrusting and

Sarinda is not one unified nation, but a loosely interconnected network of peoples with overlapping histories and cultures. These scavengers are born and raised in the dunes, earning the moniker "one with the sands".

Sarindites are said to be steely people, hardened by the harshness of their homeland and the Mana Deities that inhabit it.

Sarindites are highly sought after for their survival instincts and keen understanding of the Sarinda Desert; Mana Caster Sarindites especially

## History

Sarinda is home to the Ruinous Wastes, one of the most illusive and mysterious places in all of Vanquera.
Syripha's Drop

Syripha's Drop is a legendary item said to hold an unlimited amount of Mana. While there are those that have accepted it as a mythological artifact, others have set out on quests for Syripha's Drop, using ancient scrolls and tablets that tell of stories surrounding the Drop.

Syripha's Drop is, as the name suggests, a teardrop-shaped, glass object with a long, winding tail. It's said that the bulb where the Mana is contained is nearly indestructible, but if one even so much as nicks the end of the tail, the whole Drop explodes into thousands of sparkling particles, destroying the artifact forever. Why the artifact has disappeared into myth may be due to its destruction.

Almost all of these stories of the ancient past featuring Syripha's Drop tell of stories during the Era of Adversity, long before the Jadeth Council was formed. They tell of wars amongst the races, the Mechabeast, the Mana Deities, and even the Celestials, all revolving around a set few legendary artifacts, including the Drop. Unfortunately, details are scarce, making finding this illusive artifact an arduous task.
Exodigitus

An exodigitus is a working technology being spearheaded by Undeles Munatas. An exodigitus is a floating hand, controlled and manipulated through the air by a single user. The operator of said exodigitus may perform a variety of tasks, so long as they keep their mental link with the exodigitus.

Undeles plans to sell the product in pairs, as exodigita. it requires a great amount of focus to manipulate more than one exodigitus at a time, so long as this attention is not divided across various tasks. Lifting a single, large, heavy object with six exodigita than doing six completely separate tasks individually with the exodigita. Multitasking is difficult.

Exodigita are proving to be supremely helpful for a large variety of tasks: Grabbing objects out of reach, be it far above, far below, or in a narrow space; Picking up and moving an object from one area to another without straining the user physically; Gathering large quantities of items in a short time.

Due to exodigita being a Mana-powered invention, Mana Casters have a higher potential with them. Especially powerful Mana Casters may be able to control dozens at a time, possibly even more.

## History

Exodigita were first conceived by Undeles when he was younger, prior to his induction into the Swordswayer Brotherhood. It was only after he forged his Swaybrand Sharamun that he realized he could bring his vision to life.

He works day and night on his exodigita, going days on end without sleeping.

Exodigita have yet to go public, as they are still a working technology.
Naturan Gradtumird

Naturan Gradtumird was of Equavirian royalty. He fought in only a few battles toward the end of the Days of Red Sun, only for the conquests to come to a stop. This enraged Naturan, as he felt he had only gotten started, his glory days cut short, all because of the rise of technological prowess. He would come to despise Invardia, even going so far as to declare them his number one enemy.

Naturan would be slain in a battle against a Valushari settlement. A bolt of metal an inch across struck through his chest, missing his heart by about a quarter of an inch. He bled out onto the metal, which was long enough to stick him to the ground. Naturan is seen as a failure to his family.
The First Ones

There were… ones before us

- Alan Sharpe

The First Ones were the ancestors of modern humans, having achieved ‘Type 2.6’ on the Kardashev Scale, before they were almost completely wiped out by The Chosen. They had a highly advanced hierarchy, culture that worshipped the Architects, similar to The Remnants and the First of the Chosen. Needless to say, their biology was extremely similar to that of the Modern Humans.

## History

The First Ones first appeared over 150,000 years ago, in their cave times. The Remnants seeded the growing civilisation with some of their expansionist, curious nature. This led the civilisation to expand over a matter of a few thousand years from a small planetary civilisation to a massive, thriving galactic one. Once they had grown powerful enough to comprehend it, the Remnants reached out to them, informing them that this was not their very first contact, and explained to them that they needed to assist them in their war against the Faceless. The First Ones and Remnants joined forces, arming and preparing for the inevitable return of the Faceless. Over a thousand years later, the Faceless returned, but the Remnants and First Ones were ready for them. The Remnants and First Ones killed almost every last soldier in the Faceless’ Military Campaign, which was based in a nearby star system. Enraged at the Remnants’ sudden advantage, they deployed every last soldier in their ranks on an assault on the First One’s homeworld, an obscure ocean planet called Arlake, that would later become known as Earth. From this point onwards, the Faceless begin slowly exterminating every last Remnant, slowly exterminating their civilisation. Unknown to the Chosen, the Remnants returned to Arlake one last time, this time to seed the growing species with seven different bloodlines, all capable of interfacing with Remnant technology, in the hopes that they would rise up and destroy the Chosen once and for all.

## Culture

The First Ones’ primary religion focused heavily on creationism, even believing that the Architects created the universe itself. The First Ones believed that they were the First Born of the Architects, hence their name, believing themselves to be holders of the Architects’ legacy. Despite the fact that this was also the belief of the Remnants, the two species maintained a solid alliance for thousands of years.
Roy Cat

Roy Cats are the feline equivalent of the Roy Dog. The Roy Cat is a large cat breed renowned for its soft, puffy fur.

Due to how they came into being, the Roy Cats are one of the two animals used as symbols for Invardia.

## History

The Roy Cat was selectively bred over many generations to become what it is today. The breed is a favorite among Invardium elites and royalty.

While it's thought the Roy Cat was bred purely for show, the Roy Cat can be aggressive if one isn't vigilant.

The Roy Cat became an Invardium symbol when they were adopted by certain members of the Jadeth Council long ago. Renia Wesita was particularly fond of the breed, adopting nearly two dozen of her own. Once news of the breed's popularity in the Council went out, the breed exploded in popularity. The Jadeth Council officially ruled the Roy Cat as Invardia's National Feline in the year ---.

Once the Roy Cat was recognized as Invardia's National Feline, the Roy Cat would again spike in popularity.
Takul Alunir

Takul Alunir generated by artbreeder.com

> These people need something they can believe in, something they can trust to protect them. [...] I'm going to bring on a new age for Invardia; An age without fear of the world.
>
> Takul Alunir

Takul Alunir is a member of the Jadeth Council, and is credited with the creation of the Invardium Militia Legion's modern hierarchy.

## History

Takul Alunir has taken great strides to shroud his past in mystery. Over time, however, a number of sleuths committed to unraveling the truth of the Jadeth Council have slowly started to piece together Takul's biography. They've dug up a great many documents regarding his family, his past adventures, and his other relationships.

## Personality

Despite his outward appearance, Alunir is frequently described as being a soft individual, oft allowing his emotions to overcome him.

## Relations

Outside of the Jadeth Council, Takul Alunir has had many friends.
Zitra Quedith

*See also: Mana Caster.*

Zitra Quedith is a Mana Caster student aspiring to become a professor at the esteemed academy she attends.

## Personality

Zitra is not outgoing or particularly friendly with people in general, often responding with witty quips or acute remarks when she is irritated. Her filter isn't all too robust, speaking just about anything that comes to mind. She is harsh and abrasive, pushing away anyone who meets her with even the slightest resistance. She only has one or two friends, each of whom have come to see past her caustic personality. Zitra will rarely take no for an answer, going great lengths to get what she wants, often at the expense of herself and others. Zitra is not fully confident in her abilities, despite being one of the best in her class. She sets her expectations higher and higher, to a point that she can never achieve, periodically causing her to shut down under the weight of such expectations.

Zitra finds failure a difficult thing to grasp, and so she either refuses to accept when she has or doesn't risk reaching for success out of fear of missing. Zitra is afraid of rejection, as she has been scorned far more times than she cares to admit. She wants to be a professor, but is afraid she may be incapable of teaching adequately. She has bouts of confidence, but they leave as fast as they arrived.
Anughid Vuali

Anughid Vuali was the caretaker of Cunlagra.

## History

For many years, Anughid wielded Cunlagra to vanquish those who opposed the Equavir Empire. He fought alongside his family - his two older brothers and his younger brother - and slaughtered thousands. He did not stop for anything, taking entire civilizations in the name of Equavir. They had never been part of a royal family, but when Anughid became a member of the Swordswayer Brotherhood, he quickly became a beloved figure in the Equavirian military. His brothers would soon join him, each adopting their own Swaybrand and calling it their own.

Anughid forged Cunlagra, a Swaybrand that would become legendary in Equavirian culture, eventually ascending to iconic across the wider Vanquera. It would strike fear into all who heard the name.

But it was the death of his younger brother at the end of his own Swaybrand that broke Anughid. He abandoned his family, feeling a deep penitence for his actions. He severed his connections with the Swordswayer Brotherhood, and left for the Sarinda Desert.

Anughid wanted to rid himself of the painful reminder that was his Swaybrand. He traverse the Ruinous Wastes, finding a spot where his Swaybrand could never be uncovered. He buried his blade deep within the dunes, never to summon it again.

Anughid would become an outcast, disavowed by his family and outlawed from nearly every nation for his wrongdoings. Not even the Sarindites welcomed him, for he had offended everyone.

He would forego his name, leaving behind his past and becoming a new man. He would become a nomad, trading with any who didn't recognize him. He would come to adopt the name Aav.

Aav is thought to have died somewhere in Sarinda.

## Personality

Niri is manipulative and conniving, capable of swaying the opinions of entire peoples. Having lived long enough to see the end of Days of Red Sun, she has learned much over the centuries.

Knowing all too well not to directly associate herself with who she employs, she maintains a distant relationship. She has fingers in a lot of pies, such as the trade of Mana Deities, the hunting of Mechabeast, and even a few slave trades. She is by no means innocent, knowing exactly who she is working with at all times. Every interaction with each operation she funds is entirely anonymous, so as not to tie her funding back to her. She has come close to being caught a few times, formulating stronger defenses in response.

### Romance

Niri has had many romantic involvements over the course of her life, each ending tragically in their own ways. She has come to accept that she will always out-live her loves, and so she has ceased pursuing romance entirely.

Scarlet Order

*See also: Equavir.*

The Scarlet Order is a sect of radical conservative Equavirians that are prideful of their cultural lineage.

## History

The Days of Red Sun is a named applied somewhat retroactively to the warring period which it describes, adopted by the vast majority of Vanquerans only a short amount of time into the period. The Scarlet Order was founded by a small group of individuals that had immense pride in their heritage. It's not entirely clear whether the Scarlet Order precedes or follows the spread of the term "Days of Red Sun". It's believed by some that certain members of the Scarlet Order coined the term, but it may remain unproven for all of time.

The Scarlet Order was founded by Livit Eshir, Mend Filinatri, Judin Giai, and Limi Onrahdt.

Livit Eshit was born and raised a warrior. He never knew his parents,
Lemkorus (Candy)

Lemkorus is a long, licorice-like candy, with flavored filling inside. It was created by 2 brothers, who founded their candy business in Lemkorus well before it became a proper city. Part of its iconicity stems from the confusion of it sharing its name with the city of its creation and the person said city was named in honor of.

Lemkorus is made in a yellow color with a citrusy flavor. Other Lemkorus flavors include Barbarian Root Beer, Berry Bundle, and Pitch Black. They also come in Chewy, Hard, and Bites variants.

Shadehunter

*See also: Shadewalker.*

Shadehunters hunt Shadewalkers. They are adept with Mana and many of its properties.

## History

Ever since the first Shadewalker was born, shadehunters have been on the hunt for them. Shadehunters employ a number of tactics specific to hunting Shadewalkers. Through much practice and discipline, they can focus Mana into their eyes, allowing them to see in darkness far better than the average person. They can sense the presence of Shadewalkers, and will stop at nothing until that presence is slain or expelled.

Shadehunters may come from a variety of backgrounds. Vitriators, Aviators, Phantoms, Swordswayers, or any other occupation may become a shadehunter.

A certain subsect of Swordswayers was formed called the Shade's Bane. They typically use Swaybrands reminiscent of throwing glaives.
Weldania Besana

Weldania Besana was a Mana Caster working for the Invardium Infusion-Banking Agency and was also Invardium Militia Legion veteran.

## History

### Childhood

From an early age, Weldania knew she was gifted with an incredible knack for Mana. She would experiment with Mana at every opportunity she could.

### Militia Service

In Weldania's young adult life, she would become renown for her abilities, joining the Invardium Militia Legion as soon as she was able. She wanted to contribute whatever she could to her nation, including whatever powers she possessed.

Weldania would ascend the ranks at a remarkable pace.

### Induction into the IIBA

The entirety of the Jadeth Council was impressed with her prowess, citing her as too valuable to Invardia's success to remain in the service. Instead of allowing her to climb through the ranks, the Council offered her a position within the Invardium Infusion-Banking Agency. She accepted gleefully.

Upon assuming her position, she would again prove herself to be exceptionally capable with Mana. Her rates far surpassed all others in the Agency. The IIBA similarly recognized Weldania as a

Realizing the potential of Mana, she proposed several theoretical techniques and technologies to the IIBA that she claimed would significantly increase the rate at which Mana Bits were created.

### Alleged Suicide

Weldania was found dead in her home early in the morning by one of her assistants. She had been found on the floor, Mana pooled around her lifeless body. A note had been left on her desk, reading simply "I am sorry". Analysis of the handwriting confirms the note had indeed been written by Weldania herself. Examinations of her body indicate no attempt at poisoning, no entry wound for a murder weapon, or any sign of disease. Samples of her Mana have been analyzed, turning up nothing regarding her death.

To this day, the exact reasoning behind her death remains a mystery.
Zhadivaria

Zhadivaria is a long-abandoned city overgrown with moss and trees. This city was built upon a steep hill overcast by a sheer cliff, leading down into a dark cavern flooded with water. This city is located in the outskirts of the Takari forests. As various architectural symbols suggest, the city was once populated by Takari.

The deepest buildings lay far underwater, teeming with aquatic life.

As local Takari caution, a few Mana Deities have been spotted roaming the city. They advise nobody venture near the city, as they say that all those who seek the city never return.

Despite these warnings, people from all manner of background go on expeditions for the city. A rare few bodies have ever been found, and even fewer come back alive. Though many ancient cities are dangerous to explore in Vanquera, Zhadivaria has earned the nickname "Death City".

Manacycle

A Manacycle is an advanced bike powered using Mana cells. They are virtually silent, and have the capacity to travel at speeds of hundreds of miles per hour, though they are rarely used for this purpose. While other vehicles may require treads to retain traction with the ground, Manacycles require no such feature as their wheels are infused as to allow as much traction is needed for any given environment. It has been posited that they may even be able to climb walls, albeit with significant risk to their drivers.

A hovering/flying alternative is said to be in the works, though the safety of such a vehicle has been put into question many times over.

## History

The Manacycle is a recent invention. The original design was invented by Jula Madirr, until it was discovered by one of Undeles Munatas' subordinates. Jula and Undeles would partake in a collaborative effort to create a commercially viable personal vehicle, which they would go on to call the Manacycle, releasing it first in Invardia.
Eshiro Mirna

Eshiro Mirna is an Equavirian Mana Caster that specializes in the manipulation of water. Her metal ring is infused to allow her to command any water it touches.

She will use it to transport and distribute water her town needs, boil or freeze water as necessary, use the water to slice or smash things, and even summon a variety of weapons that she uses to protect her people.

## History

Eshiro did not make the ring. She discovered it when she was a child in a bush just beyond her home near the edge of the town. Over the years, Eshiro has sharpened her skills to a razor edge, the use of the ring becoming natural and instinctual. Eshiro does not wish to depart with the ring, for reasons that should be obvious.
Project Nightmare

Project Nightmare was the UNE initiative to test the Faceless parasite and its effects on living organisms in controlled environments by injecting the parasite into Chosen Zealots. The process involved binding and severing all of their limbs, removing their eyes and breaking them to the point where they would be thoroughly unable to fight back. They were then trapped in testing chambers for over six months, while the infectious spores were pumped into the air. After six months, the trapped Zealots began to exhibit signs of infection, including large boils and difficulty in breathing. After several more months, the infection had fully taken over the Zealots, and the project moved on to begin human testing. It is unknown what happened beyond this point.
Aieun

Aieun is a Mana Deity, and quasi-leader of the Aieunari.

## Appearance

She is said to deploy her loyal followers to gather food for her.

## History

Aieun was discovered hiding out in a cave somewhere along an Equavirian mountain range.
ESS Solace

The **ECS *Solace*** was a large colony ship dispatched from Earth in 2249, bound for the Tau Ceti system. It was damaged at an unknown point in its journey, leaving its crew stranded. Heavy damage to the fuselage and burns indicate a possible explosive mechanical failure. The ship featured extensive habitation and recreational facilities. Its wreckage was rediscovered in 2615, and it was formally explored by a UNE team one year later.

## Technical Details

The *Solace* was dispatched from Earth, bound for Tau Ceti in 2249, with a full crew and complement of 2,000 colonists, as well as landing shuttles and basic exploration and defence equipment for the ship’s eventual landing.

Sol (System)

The Cradle of Humanity

- UNE’s description on the Starnet map

## Summary

The Sol System is home to Earth and several other First Worlds. It is the first star system with planets colonised by Humanity, and several ancient Human installations. It is the capital system of the Vixen Dynamics Megacorp. Over the centuries, Sol’s role has switched from the powerhouse of Humanity to the coveted, semi-mythical homeworld.

## History

Sol, as the site of the first colonies of Humanity, has a rich and expansive history.

#### Colonisation of Mars

Humanity’s first colony was the planet Mars. It was first settled in 2032, and became fully self-sufficient in 2086. Once Mars was settled, it was proven that it was indeed possible to construct and inhabit long-term bases on other worlds. This spurred Humanity on to immediately explode across the Solar System, and later, the Galaxy.

#### Colonisation of Venus and the mining of Mercury

In 2046, the first HACH (High Atmosphere Cloud Habitat) was launched to Venus, and in 2051, small mining outposts were constructed on the surface of Mercury. Mercury’s high metal content means that only a small part of it is capable of providing for all resource demands for centuries.

#### First Extrasolar Colonies

The first ever extrasolar colony ever settled was Alpha Centauri, settled in 2146. It was followed closely by Tau Ceti in 2150. At this point, Earth is still considered the centre of industry it was in the 21st Century. When Barnard’s Star was settled, the perception of Earth’s role began to shift. Once its environment was repaired and strict laws were imposed on environmental abuse, Earth was no longer a viable location for industry. Most relocated either to one of the many moons of Saturn and Jupiter, to artificial stations on the edge of the system, or to one of the growing number of extrasolar colonies.

#### Formation of the UNE

Until now, the UN founded temporary alliance of planets, the United Coalition of Earth has been administrating the Colonies. When it became apparent that this centrally governed alliance wouldn’t hold Humanity’s growing empire together, the UCE Senate decided to found the United Nations of Earth. It was founded directly by former UN officials, its name reflecting the unity of the nations of Earth and all other worlds in Settled Space. This alliance of worlds bound every colony until the early 23rd Century.

## Planets and Colonies

Every planet, moon and planetoid in Sol has been emblazoned with human footsteps. All major planets and most moons are under protection by the UNE. On Earth, the capital city is Alinity, founded by the UNE. Other major cities include New Sydney in Australia, New York in the United States of the Americas and New London in the United Commonwealth. On Mars, the major cities include Elegaard, New Horizon (governed primarily by the Alterra Corporation) and the first ever off-world colony, New Ariel. Venus carries a massive web of cloud cities, all melding into the same ecumenopolis. The system’s outer planets and Oort Cloud contain many massive industrial plants.
Henim Prominca

Henim Prominca is the exiled older brother of Emi Prominca.

## History

After a confrontation with his father over his father's past, Henim was swiftly disowned and banished from the Prominca household by his own mother Midra Prominca. After idolizing his family history for so long - even so much as desiring to inherit one or both of the family Swaybrands for himself - he eventually came to realize how dark his family history truly was. Henim eventually snapped at his father,

Tau Ceti

**Tau Ceti** is a star system located relatively close to Sol, and one of Humanity’s oldest colonies. It is an unaffiliated system, and an area of armistice between the UNE, the Freehold and several corporations converge. It is often used as a neutral point for negotiations to occur between factions, or trade deals between corporations. Historically, it was an extremely violent system, owing to its disputed affiliation.

## History

### Early Settlement

Although the ESS *Solace* was the first colony ship bound for the system, the first to arrive were smaller FTL scouting ships, that scouted the system’s second planet from orbit before deploying a satellite for further mapping. The next were FTL colony ships, carrying colonists to set up settlements on the surface of Tau Ceti II.

### Dispute of affiliation

Although it was first scouted and settled by UNE ships, the planets inhabitants wished to join the newly formed Freehold, owing to its greater focus on personal freedom. The UNE and Freehold fought a 27 year war of attrition in the system, with the Freehold eventually claiming victory. Even after their victory, the Freehold allowed the UNE to maintain an economic and diplomatic presence throughout the system. This state of armistice earned the system’s second planet, and primary world, the name ‘Solidarity’, which was eventually
Kindkrist Unirdia

The Kindkrist Unirdia - translated "Children of Unirdia" - are a cult collective of people from all across Vanquera. While members are present practically anywhere, their mainland of Fartrosia is located along a rocky coast in the outer fringes of Vanquera. That is where the majority of their kind reside.

They worship one of the banished Celestials who was cast from Vanquera eons ago. The exact details of Unirdia's banishment are lost to time, but it's said the banished Celestial did leave one thing for future civilizations to discover; A lone pool of untainted Mana which Unirdia had infused with instructions. This Mana is the cornerstone of the cult's beliefs. Only a select few are said to have partaken of this Mana.

## Customs

### Beliefs

The Kindkrist Unirdia believe Unirdia will one day return.

### Practices

The Kindkrist Unirdia wear masks and/or headgear that relate to their placement in their society. Each mask is designed to the individual, with insignia and markings pertaining to their history, job, and preferences. They do not discriminate based on race/species, welcoming all who wish to join their religion. However, across the masks of all Kindkirst Unirdia cultists is the symbol of Unirdia.

### Scripture

The foundation for this cult is the Mana provided to them by Unirdia, referred to as the Unirdia Manaticus Scriptorum (pending title) . It's not known what the exact details of the Mana are, as it is a close-kept secret in the Kindkrist Unirdia. Only a select few dozen have ever been able to partake of the Mana. All there is to rely on is the word of the cult's leaders.
F-42 Condor

The F-42 Condor VTOL is one of the UNE’s primary heavy aerial vehicles, built and assembled by Vixen Dynamics, suited to both in-atmosphere and exoatmospheric flight. It is famed for its unparalleled diversity, being utilised as drop-ships, fighters, scouting/reconnaissance and even artillery. The Condor owes its diversity to two primary features that set it apart from its competition; the ability to quickly alternate between VTOL mode and standard flight mode, and the ability to strafe. These are undoubtedly the defining features of this ship

## History

### Original Design

In 2578, Vixen Dynamics designed a VTOL craft for use in the UNE’s military, air force and navy. The F-42 Condor was developed, with the intention of being the UNE’s primary aerial vehicle. The ship’s debut was met with overwhelming positivity, and the model was adapted for many different roles in the military. A consumer model was also designed, albeit considerably less powerful.

### 2590s

The reconnaissance variant of the Condor was modified to include a small AEMD, allowing longer range in-system travel. Beyond this, the design remained unchanged to the end of the 26th Century.

### 2615

The ship’s relatively outdated Bulldog-class cruise engine was replaced with the Vixen Dynamics L-119 Cruise Drive. A dedicated missile-platform variant also began production prior to the Compass Holocaust and Exodus Wars.

## Design

The Condor follows an ancient design philosophy, with a large cabin, with two ion rocket engines fitted on swivels fixed to either side, capable of facing vertically for take-off and landing, or horizontally for cruising. It also has smaller boosters that allow it to strafe in any direction.

### Engine

The Condor’s engines are dual Vixen Dynamics L-119 by default, but can be replaced with an L-219 or L-319. There are also smaller Bulldog-class cruise thrusters at the Aft.

### Weapons

The Condor comes stock with three Behring light energy repeaters, two mounted on either side of the cockpit and one dorsal mounted. It also has two cruise missile batteries mounted on the belly of the ship.

### Shields

The Condor’s shield, comparative to its size, is one of the most robust on the Market. Two projectors are mounted beneath the dorsal armour, producing a maximum of 142 Mj of shields. With extra boosters mounted, this can be increased to 197 Mj. It is currently not rated for Resonance Travel.

### Hull and Armour

Even following a shield collapse, the Condor remains robust, with armour plating capable of withstanding laser and kinetic attacks, and even limited rail-gun fire.
Lyla Markov

“My actions were justified”

- Dr. Lyla Markov

## Early Life

Born on the colony of Walter’s World, Dr. Markov spent much of her early life in the city of New Ariel, attending the New Ariel Academy of Excellence. Her parents divorced when she was 12, causing her to throw herself deep into her work to make her father proud. In 2566, she obtained top marks in the Universal Ability Exam, enabling her to jump directly from Secondary Education to Third-Level Education, where she obtained a scholarship to Earth.

## Career

She graduated with top marks, earning a scholarship to study in New Alinity on Earth. Shortly after obtaining a PhD in Neural Physics, she joined the newly formed UENC to attempt to create an ‘Immortality Drug’, capable of greatly extending a Soldier’s prime. The project was ultimately shut down in 2583. In 2585, she founded the ‘Afterlife Project’, which aimed to create clone bodies for soldiers fighting in the Third Galactic War, which was currently being fought between the UNE and AIC. The conflict was resolved before the project could come to fruition. However, she continued her work, eventually making a breakthrough that would allow a consciousness to be transferred to a clone that would live for a few weeks. In 2601, the UENC began utilising these clones, but it took years to obtain a copied consciousness of every soldier in the UEN and UEM. By 2614, the Navy and Military had these 'Flash Clones' fully integrated. And because of their success, when the Compasses and Chosen invaded, Humanity was ready, and able to fight back.

## Compass Wars

Between 2615 and 2618, she kept a low profile after returning to the planet of Walter's World, away from where the Alien forces were concentrated, unknowing that the Precursor tech that the Chosen would soon arrive and start looking for was in fact buries right there on Walter's World. In 2618, after the Fall of Walter's World, Dr. Markov was rescued by Alan Ramirez shortly after the arrival of the Chosen.
L-2 Raptor (Consumer)

Land, sea, atmosphere or not, the Raptor excels.

- Madden-Kruger corporation’s description

The Raptor’s consumer variant, manufactured by Madden-Kruger, is a popular vehicle throughout Human settled space. It is the almost universal first choice for a new pilot’s first vehicle. It is also used for on-planet travel, and massive convoys ore used to transport resources. It can be fitted with a large trailer, greatly increasing its cargo capacity.

## Design

### Engine

Unlike its military counterpart, the 2625 civilian Raptor is powered by a all-wheel-drive V12.1 liquid-cooled Hydrogen ICE engine with infinitely variable transmission. The engine operates by burning its hydrogen fuel at an extremely high temperature. The engine is fully automatic, also including a manual setting. It shares the same engine as the Madden-Kruger Polestar, although the Polestar’s design leans further towards resource transportation rather than all-terrain travel. The UNE variant’s engine is significantly more powerful than either the Raptor or Polestar.

### Cabin

The Raptor’s cabin has a Titanium-36 alloy skeleton, with Carbon Fibre cladding. Its windows and windscreen are shockproof acrylic. The cabin is waterproof and hermetically sealed, meaning that even under water or in the vacuum of space, the cabin remains breathable for a time. Stashed under the back seats, three large o2 tanks are kept for emergencies, along with jump leads, a fire extinguisher and a backup hydrogen valve. The seats can be selected as either white, grey, cream or black, and are modelled from a carbon fibre-kevlar composite. When not in use, the steering yoke folds into the dashboard. When on-road, the Raptor features a self-driving function, along with window dulling to reduce light levels in the cabin.
Rosehearts

The Rosehearts are a branch of the Swordswayer Brotherhood. They are the guardians of the Eternal Rose, a rose-like Manabloom that has lasted hundreds if not thousands of years. Only a rare few have been blessed with the privilege of partaking from the Eternal Rose.

## History

Since the discovery of the Eternal Rose, the Equavir have sought to protect it from those who sought to bring it harm. The Swordswayer Brotherhood would become involved, forming a new branch specifically tasked with protecting the Eternal Rose.
Ivanov Era

The Ivanov Era was the period in the UNE that began with the election of James Ivanov in 2408 and ended with the death of Issa Ivanov in 2606. It was a 200 year period of fascism in the UNE, where mass genocide was ordered against anyone who stood in the way of the Empire’s continued expansion. It was also the time of the Deimos and Enceladus Holocausts, notable because they occurred so close to heavily populated areas.

## Timeline

### First Election

During the 2408 election for the next President of the UNE, James Ivanov ran, preaching ideas of industry, wealth and expansion, during a very trying time in UNE history. Note at this time, the Cradle was in the middle of one of the largest recessions of the spacefaring era. Several massive corporations such as Ryujin, the Colonial Trading Corporation and Infinitech were colonising and industrialising worlds faster than the UNE, and winning the galactic space race. James Ivanov was elected primarily for his ability to reflect the public sentiment. When he was elected, he created the title of ‘Grand Imperator’ of the UNE, cementing himself and his family UNE as a line of fascist dictators.
Ryujin Industries

Ryujin Industries is an Earth-borne megacorporation originating in the city of Tokyo in the 2067. As of 2620, it is one of the Galaxy’s greatest megacorporations, being the primary supplier of the UNE’s military, navy and air force. They also govern several independent colonies on the Outer Rim, such as Asselus Prime and Procyon. It holds a monopoly over the mining market, having leased a massive area of the Sol System’s asteroid belt, which was rich in Terbium, Nneodynium and Tantalum. In the First Age of Expansion, it assisted in settling many of what we now know as the three Capital Worlds of the UNE.

## History

### Founding

In 2067, Mikami Watanabe founded the Ryujin Technology Corporation, a start-up manufacturer of space exploration technology, capitalising on the massive drive to explore the other worlds of the Sol System. The corporation initially manufactured asteroid mining equipment, while researching fast transit technology. In 2077, it unveiled the AEMD, an engine that drastically reduced the transit time from Earth to the fledgling Capital Worlds on Mars and Luna. The corporation’s stock price rocketed immediately to over 910 Billion US$, making them the most valuable corporation on the Global Stock Market. Their stock continued to rise to heights never before seen, allowing them to lease a vast area of Sol’s inner asteroid belt, headquartering themselves on Mars’ tiny moon of Phobos.

### Second Renaissance

As colonialism slowed down in the early 22nd Century,
