Commonwealth Arkhosian Class

## History

The *Arkhosian-Class* was the third vessel class designed for the Commonwealth High Guard Fleet for the United Commonwealth of Planets. Named for the Arkhosian Legion, one of the found members of the United Commonwealth of Planets. The *Arkhosian-Class* is an *Engineering Cruiser* designed for long-term support to Commonwealth starships during missions.

The vessel is significantly larger then the Commonwealth Chioni Class, measuring in at almost 2,000 meters in length and as a result, currently two of these ships exist within the Commonwealth Fleet.

The frontal section of the vessel is designed to serve the same capacity as an orbital drydock, allowing the frontal saucer section to spread outwards, allowing the vessel to conduct repairs on many different types of vessels, with some of the largest and most diverse collection of shuttles and workerbees currently existing within the Commonwealth and Starfleet in general.

The vessel is also equipped with powerful shield projectors, which allows the *Arkhosian-Class* to extend shields around damaged allies and thus protect them from taking additional fire.

Due to the extensive utility of the *"saucer drydock"*, the *Arkhosian-Class* can also be used to provide limit ship construction during times of war and can even produce larger vessels due to its extensive industrial replicators, leading this vessel to have one of the most powerful warp cores in both the Federation and the Commonwealth.

## Tactical Systems

The *Arkhosian-Class* is equipped with experimental *Type XIV-Commonwealth Transphasic Phaser Arrays*. Based on *Transphasic* weapons technology developed by the Argussian Republic, for use on the Argussian Coronet Class vessel, these weapons deliver a powerful subspace compression pulse which projects a portion of the energy weapon damage across mutiple subspace frequencies, allowing for impressive shield penetration as well as doing some damage to Eternium and Pryde vessels.

The *Arkhosian-Class* is also equipped with the experimental *Tempest Torpedo*, this torpedo, developed by *Commonwealth Intelligence* is the result of combining standard *Q-2 Quantum Torpedoes* with the newly discovered element of Tempestrium, producing a powerful subspace nullification effect which causes the mutual destruction of negative energy particles while causing less subspace damage then a *Tricobalt Torpedo*.

The *Arkhosian Class* is also equipped with;

* Standard *Q-2 Quantum Torpedoes* and *Type VII Photon Torpedoes.*
* Aurellian Tactical Combat Sensor Suite
* Chioni Hexadecimal (Six-Layered) Plasma Enhanced Shielding (with Enhanced Chioni EPS Conduits - Also currently used on U.S.S. Callisto)
* Ctarl-Ctarl Emergency Phase Inverter System (Equipped on Escape Pods)

## **History**

The need for better ships with the use of New Arkhosia Shipyard, later renamed Io Shipyard, before and during the collapse of the United Commonwealth of Planets. As a result, the minds in Norsen Engineering has initiated a series of new starship designs under the name Project Valhalla. The goal of the project is the creation of several starships with different mission profiles.

With the first in mind being a fast stealthy warship capable of intel gathering and espionage operations, the Thunderhorn Class is designed for this purpose. Utilizing a much harder stealth plating and their own version of cloaking device called the Shadow Phase Cloak, the Thunderhorn is rendered invisible to most conventional and active sensors. Equipped with specifically designed Neurotronic Antiproton weapons, the Thunderhorn Class is more than capable of handling a combat fight on its own with little help with its Quad Cannons.

Commissioned in 2421, the A.T.S. Thunderhorn has been put to service along with several sister ships including the Raikou, Raiden, and Raikage. They currently serve as the main special forces fleet under the Kagemusha Intel Initiative. The unique feature of the Thunderhorn Class is its swing-wing configuration with its nacelles, located on the wings, can be locked in combat or in normal space in the forward position or towards the back of the ship for warp travel.
Mobius (Psi Tau IV)

## History

*Psi Tau IV*, simply known as *"Mobius"* by its inhabitants is a small world located in the Tau Quadrant of the Black Eye Galaxy.

Despite seeming lush and green from orbit, Mobius has shown signs of industrialisation in the past, possibly resulting in some kind of robotic war which destroyed most of the major cities on the surface of the planet almost 150 years ago.

Despite seeming to have no moon, Commonwealth scientists have detected the presence of another gravitational field in orbit of Mobius, possibly indicating that the planet does indeed have a moon that is somehow not able to be seen with the naked eye.

Overgrown ruined cities litter the surface of mobius which have long since laid abandoned since the indiginous lifeforms on the planet relocated to small towns located far away from the most irradiated cities.

Despite this catacylsmic event, Mobian technology is significantly advanced despite not yet possessing *faster-than-light technology* and even exceeds Commonwealth standard in some areas, most of which relying on ancient techniques that have been preserved over time.

Interestingly, their is a highly unusual landmass that seems to be elevated over the southern sea of the planet and appears to be *"floating"* through some unknown means of propulsion, although the purpose and meaning of this has been lost to the indiginous population over time.

Despite these unusual technologies, possibly descended from *Ovis Crystal Technology* seen before, Mobius has remained unimportant and undisturbed for thousands of years, not attracting any significant attention from any of the races of the Black Eye Galaxy, including the once powerful Strategos Collective.
Chilton (Yanshire IX)

## History

*Chilton,* also known as *Yanshire IX* is the ninth planet in the *Yanshire Star System,* located on the edge of Aventis Empire territory.

Although a *Class-C,* the planet is the site of numorous forges across the surface of the world and is a key manufacturing of *Aventis Steel*, a material used in the construction of Aventis ships as well as weaponry. *Aventis Steel* is a closely guarded secret within the Aventis Empire, with only a few families being aware on the smelting process. It is generally believed that *Aventis Steel* is a traditional steel alloy that is mixed with a unique crystal at the molecular level, producing a level of hardness, only second to that of pure *Neutronium.*

*Chilton* has become one of the most famous places in the Aventis Empire because of its manufacturing of *Aventis Steel* which is reserved for only the highest quality weaponry. Even the Black Eye Consortium revere Aventis metalworking techniques and the quality of their swords.

In 2420, the R.S.S. Yggdrasil arrived in orbit of *Chilton,* to rescue Inky, who had been captured by a minor noble in *House Rumania*.

Under Aventis law, this minor nobel sought to marry Captain Inky against her will as per the *Law of Possession* and *Emperor Ginwald I* arrived to bless the union, despite showing his distaste for this *"outdated, pointless ritual".*

The crew of the *Yggdrasil* were able to break into the *A.V.S. Oxenaforda*, an *Aventis Bastion-Class* which had landed on the surface of *Chilton* to conduct the ceremony.

Captain Inky was rescued by her crew before the ceremony could begin, when her suitor was bested in a duel by one of her crew. *Emperor Ginwald I* banished his cousin and the minor noble from *House Rumania* for his dishonor and released Captain Inky, giving a full apology from the Aventis Empire as well as *knighting* the entire bridge crew.

As a result of this incident, the *Law of Possession* was abolished by *Emperor Ginwald I*, who declared that the traditional was cruel and outdated.

The need for better ships with the use of New Arkhosia Shipyard, later renamed Io Shipyard, before and during the collapse of the United Commonwealth of Planets. As a result, the minds in Norsen Engineering has initiated a series of new starship designs under the name Project Valhalla. The goal of the project is the creation of several starships with different mission profiles.

Serving as a mobile repair platform for the Legion, the Stonetail Class is created using the framework of the Arkhosian Class as the basis. Equipped with advanced tractor beam emitters and an entire complement of worker bees, the Stonetail Class is able to provide repairs any ship. Not only that, the Stonetail Class is also able to repair ships while at warp due to its large warp bubble.

The Stonetail class has the facilities to house medium sized vessels such as a Prometheus or an Armitage with its compliment of about 300-400 worker bees. The unique feature of the Stonetail Class is its swing-wing configuration with its nacelles, located on the wings, can be locked in combat or normal space in the forward position or towards the back of the ship for warp travel.
Star Classification

## Commonwealth Star Classification

Each spectral class is divided into 10 subclasses, ranging from 0 (hottest) to 9 (coolest). Stars are also divided into six catagories according to luminosity; 1a (most luminous supergiant), 1b (less luminous supergiant), II (luminous giants), III (normal giants), IV (subgiants) and V (main sequence and dwarfs). For instance, Pinastri is classified as G2V, which means that is a relatively hot G-Class (or G-Type) main sequence star. In addition, classes R, N, S, T, Q and W are relatively rare star types not found in the main sequence.

## Class O - Dark Blue

Temperature: 28,000-50,000 Kelvin

Composition: Ionized atoms, especially helium.

Example: Mintaka (O1-3III)

## Class B - Blue

Temperature: 10,000-28,000 Kelvin

Composition: Natural helium, some hydrogen.

Example: Taon Star System

## Class A - Light Blue

Temperature: 7,500-10,000 Kelvin

Composition: Strong hydrogen, some ionized metals

Example: Arkhosia Star System

## Class F - White

Temperature: 6,000-7,500 Kelvin

Composition: Hydrogen and ionized metals, calcium and iron.

Example: Procyon A (F5V-IV)

## Class G - Yellow

Temperature: 5,000-6,000 Kelvin

Composition: Ionized calcium, both neutral and ionized metals

Example: Yanshire Star System

## Class K - Orange

Temperature: 3,500-5,000 Kelvin

Composition: Neutral metals.

Example: Alpha Centauri B (K0-3V)

## Class M - Red

Temperature: 2,500-3,500 Kelvin

Composition: Ionized atoms, especially helium

Example: Wolf 359 (M5-8V)
Enteris (Shattershield)

## History

Located on **Aventis Prime (Aventis II)**, **Enteris**, also known as **"Shattershield"** to non-aventis is the capital city of the **Aventis Empire** and one of the oldest.

Dating as far back as the reign of **Gerimengix I** of the ancient **"Alfrain"** people of which very little historical records show, **Enteris** is an ancient and wonderous cathedral city located on the **Linx Estuary** on the northern continent of **Ridalemark**. It has been estimated by Aventis historians that the city may be about a thousand years old, long before the establishment of the Aventis Empire under **Emperor Excalis I** in **2004**.

It has speculated, albeit by the more controversial historians that due to the advanced design, far in excess of what was technologically available at the period of it's construction, that Enteris may actually be alien in design, depicting the work of visitors to their planet thousands of years ago.

Regardless, Enteris has been the centre of Aventis political life for centuries, containing not only the **Aventis High Council Chambers**, high above the city streets in the **"The Imperial Crest"**, the largest spire in the city's cathedrals but during the reign of **Queen Guinis I***,* a large amount of extremely advanced technology was discovered inside the deepest sections of the city, as well as a crashed alien spaceship, leading the Empire to develop the first **Aventis Bastion Class**'s from that technology.

## Excalisan

After the **Battle of Aventis** in **April 2452**, Aventis Prime oversaw significant terraforming due to a nuclear winter caused from the attack by the **Rothian Liberation Army**. As a result of this conflict, a significant portion of Shattershield was destroyed, leading to plans to rebuild the city, spearheaded during the reign of **Queen Hild MacLowan** and later by **King Pendragon I.**

By **2454**, reconstruction efforts had mostly been completed, with Shattershield separated into two distinct parts, the old city of Shattershield and the new districts of **Excalisan**, the **Imperial Palace** was rebuild using techniques created by the **Arkhosian Legion** in the construction of the castle on their own colony of **Io (Arkhosia II-D)**, which were given to the Aventis. The new **Imperial Plaza** in Excalisan stands as the tallest building on Aventis and a constant reminder of the resilience and determination of the Aventis people.
Battle of Chion Prime

The Battle of Chion Prime was a suprise attack by the Umojan Empire, fought over the planet of Chion Prime (Taon V).

## History

On the 14th February 2421, the *Umojan Empire's 8th Expeditionary Fleet* launched a suprise attack on Chion Prime, after psionically manipulating newly elected *President of the United Commonwealth of Planets*, Bol Nevin to sabotage the Chioni Shield Matrix, disabling the shield.

Facing a large amount of Umojan vessels exiting from an unknown form of instellar propulsion, *Commonwealth Sky Marshal,* Leogryn Romeli ordered the Commonwealth High Guard Fleet to engage the Umojan Fleet, leading to the loss of the almost the entire High Guard Fleet as they were easily ripped apart by the Umojan's *Pure Antiproton Weaponry*.

Facing a substantial loss, Admiral Romeli ordered the surviving United Commonwealth of Planets vessels to abandon the planet, retreating and regrouping at Bajora Prime. The U.S.S. Arizona landed on the surface of Chion Prime to assist with the evacuation and destruction of sensitive Commonwealth documents while the U.S.S. Wynter Life took on Commonwealth refugees.

The U.S.S. Normandy (NCC-61944-A), U.S.S. Nemesis and U.S.S. Arizona fought a desperate battle against five Umojan Praetor Class in orbit of Chion Prime, in order to hold them off while the U.S.S. Wynter Life attempted to escape with the President aboard.

However due to damage to Wynter Life's impulse engines following the first assault, the vessel was intercepted by Umojan Forces who disabled the vessel and captured President Bol Nevin, the U.S.S. Arizona was almost destroyed during the battle, forcing it to flee with the crippled Wynter Life.

Technology Project: Biolinear Circuitry

## General Information

* Faction: Galactic Commonwealth
* Location Developed: Black Eye Galaxy (M64)
* Type: Computer Processing System

## History

*Biolinear Circuitry* is the basis of much *25th Century Galactic Commonwealth* computer technology, replacing traditional *Isolinear* and *Bio-Neural Computer Processing Systems* which had been the original preferred system of Commonwealth starships since 2419.

Research for the *Biolinear Circuitry Command and Computer Processing System (B.C.C.P.S)* began as far back as 2420, during the *Roth/Strategos War*, under a team led by Chioni Collective scientist, Rannis Kratz. The system had been conceived due to the limitations of computer systems aboard most starships in the United Commonwealth of Planets, which all used traditional *Isolinear Computer Systems* (with the only exceptions being the U.S.S. Callisto, U.S.S. Quest, U.S.S. Republic, U.S.S. Warrior and U.S.S. Nightshade, who used *Bio-Neural Computer Systems*).

Reliance on this aging, pre-Commonwealth Federation technology significant hampered ship operations during both *The Void War* and the *Roth/Strategos War,* but it was not until the first contact with the Aventis Empire in 2420, that the Commonwealth began to seriously consider a replacement computer system for their vessels, as the Aventis had considerable numbers of smaller, more nimble fighters which could be difficult to fight with turret systems developed with aging *Isolinear Systems* in mind.

This project was quietly shelved after the departure of Rannis Kratz from the project and as the Aventis threat became less significant in following years and was not resurrected again until 2451, where The Shadow Commonwealth and later the newly formed Galactic Commonwealth would begin to develop a much faster computer system for use on their newer vessels, such as the U.S.S. Normandy and U.S.S. Thunderchild, as well as improving the aging U.S.S. Arizona and U.S.S. Wynter Life.

## General Specifications

*Biolinear Circuitry* is a combination of the durability of *Isolinear* systems used on such vessels as the Galaxy Class Starship and the response time and speed of the *Bio-Neural systems* used by the Intrepid Class Starship. Instead of using *Gel Packs*, which had proven to have been unreliable due to their organic nature, the *Biolinear Processors* of the computer system actually use a synthetic bio-polymer gel which interacts directly with the isolinear subprocesses, allowing data to flow effortlessly through it, inspired by such species in the Black Eye Galaxy such as the Gloreen Commune.

The synthetic bio-polymer is actually silicon based, inspired by the Khydallan species, which makes it immune to most conventional pathogens, such as the one that famously infected the *U.S.S. Voyager NCC-74656* in 2371. This compound also allows the ship to *"grow"* new *Biolinear Fibres* along critical paths of starship operations, allowing for more frequent operations to be accessed faster and more efficient and more used and accessed information to be accessed extremely quickly without increasing traditional computer storage space.
Gradis Collective

## General Overview

The *Gradis Collective* is long forgotten section of *Borg Collective* from the original Borg homeworld of Immutis before it was shattered across the space-time continuum. As a result of this incident various *"copies"* of Immutis was created across the universe, resulting in various different versions of the same planet, creating the version of Immutis discovered by the U.S.S. Normandy (NCC-61944-A), the Immutis belonging to the *Gradis Collective* and the original homeworld of the *Borg Collective*.

However historical records of this event, which was said to be lost thousands of years ago show that in every instance of Immutis's duplication, the people of the planet embraced technology to such an extent that it eventually consumed their lives, creating an echo of the what would become a *Borg Collective* in every possible alternate dimension and part of the universe.

The *Gradis Collective,* a name coined by the crew of the U.S.S. Normandy (NCC-61944-A) when making first contact in March, 2452 are believed to be the descendants of the *Free Scholar State of Gradis*, the foremost centre of learning and knowledge on the original, *"unsundered"* version of Immutis.

At some point when the planet was whole, located in the *Delta Quadrant* of the Milky Way Galaxy, the people of Immutis had evolved to an extremely advanced state of technological development, coming into contact with the *V'Ger Probe.* Before this point, the people of Immutis had become so integrated with their technology through implantation, that they could access the wealth of Immutis knowledge at a glance and even use their collective power to heal wounds.

*V'Ger* created a conflict in Immutis society, with the interaction with the probe causing a split within the normally harmonious society, with one side, the descendants of Gradis believing that *V'Ger's* mission of *"Learning all that is Learnable"* should be accomplished through innovation and collective experimentation, while allowing individual thought and expression to exist within the networked minds of their people and the descendants of *Ulgard* believing that only through absorption and assimilation of knowledge could V'ger's mission be accomplished.

This led to a terrifying split in Immutis society, with both sides launching war on the other, resulting in the sundering of the world across the space-time continuum as *Ulgard* attempted to use a terrifying ancient weapon, known as *The Grey Blood* to forcibly convert the Gradis to their cause.

As a result of the split, the Gradis became isolated from their distant brethren, who went on to become the Borg Collective that the Federation so feared for decades.
Foxune Eternium Plague

## General Overview

Developed by the Rothian 13th Legion in early 2421, Foxune Eternium Plague was designed using the same *Triple-Helix Sequence* that Eternium and The Pryde of Ma'lkon bio-technology uses.

Originally developed by the 13th Legion and commissioned as a research project by Primus Picus O'Kann, this version of the plague was originally intended for use on the Black Eye Borg Collective (Formally Sobekka Hegemony), to free the Sobekka Hegemony from their implants, removing a threat to the dominance of a reborn Rothian Corporation in the Zeta Quadrant.

Foxune Prime was chosen as the planet to test this virus (known as RN-564-Omega) due to its isolated position, with the 13th Legion unaware that the Foxune Federation had officially joined the United Commonwealth of Planets. The Foxune were also chosen due to their incredible ability to mutate their own DNA, giving them access to extraordinary abilities.

The original virus was constructed using a Universal Constructor however it quickly began to mutate beyond control while on the surface of Foxune, infecting all life on the planet and causing the Foxune to lose all their abilities, with some resorting to suicide and apathy created by the infection systems (similar to that of *Alzheimer's Disease* on Earth).

Unable to control the virus, the 13th Legion were powerless, fearing that the virus would mutate to the point it would infect other species, including themselves due to the level of mutation.

The U.S.S. Wynter Life responded to a distress call from Foxune in February 2421 and attempted to treat the affected population, while reluctantly working with the 13th Legion in order to create a cure or vaccine to this plague.

## Symptoms

* Loss of Abilities
* Depression
* Apathy
* Difficulty Planning or Making Decisions
* Problems Moving Around Without Assistance
* Hallucinations
Curnaris (Omega Xi IV)

## History

***Curanaris (Omega Xi IV)*** is the forth planet of the **Omega Xi Star System** in the **Omega Quadrant** of the **Black Eye Galaxy**.

A rocky, mountainous world, the surface of Curnaris is covered with deep rocky canyons and very limited surface water, which makes up less then 8% of the planet's surface due to the planet's proximity to the intense quaternary stars within Omega Xi.

The planet is home to the **Curanite** species that have adapted to live in vast underground cities with access to subterranean water sources due to an expansive network of lava tubes which were formed during the planets violent early history.

Despite this, Curnaris displays high levels of geological activity with regular volcanic eruptions on the surface, almost double the usual amount seen on **"Terran-like"** **Class-M planets**. This regular geological activity has caused the planet to become rich in precious metals and minerals which are brought close to the surface, leading to a surface rich in **Iron, Titanium and Nickle ore**.

The only city left standing on the volatile surface of **Curnaris** is **Xen'Karn**, a **Xen'Trist Prime** colony which still exists from when the Xen'Trist first annexed the planet, however in recent years, the city has become nothing more then a desolate ruin.

It is believed that this planet was once a more traditional Class-M planet however a large-scale event somehow shifted its orbit, moving it closer to its parent star and causing the planet to be increasingly lashed by harsh ultraviolet rays, forcing the native Curanite to seek shelter underground.

As a result, the **Curanite** people display incredible skills in subterranean, building some of the most durable buildings seen in the **Black Eye Galaxy**, with built in **Structural Intergrity Fields** that can withstand quakes of up to 9.5 on the **Richter magnitude scale**. Cities are also built attached to massive **Stalagmite** formations in these underground caverns.

The Curanite are also known to construct full **I.A. Jenna Class** vessels underground within the caverns, rising them up from great fissures in the surface of Curnaris when completed and into interstellar space by use of a powerful tractor beam technology.

Most Curanite power sources are surprisingly renewable, using the planets intense geothermal activity to power their cities, while also using the vast underground lakes as a vast hydroelectric power source. As a result, huge dams have been constructed over many of the underground lakes to process the water for power generation, with almost none of the power going to waste.

The **Capital City** of Curnaris is **Glem** as of 2453.
Banished

## General Overview

The **Banished** are the name given to a group from the **Aventis Empire,** who choose to live in exile from the Empire's borders. Originally coming from the lost family of **House Bakker**, whose family name have been scrubbed from Aventis history, the Banished are a nomadic people who travel the stars in one of the last functioning **Aventis Castra Class** ships, having left **Aventis (Aventis II)** over 300 years ago, during the reign of **Dalton I**, the only known **House Telkana** monarch.

During this period, House Bakker was exiled by King Dalton I for attempting to overthrow him in 2148 during a period known as **"The War of the Beasts"**, a period that saw House Bakker ally itself with **House Fullex** to rebel against Dalton when Bakker discovered that King Dalton had assassinated the previous king in order to seize the throne. The War of the Beasts was so named because during this period of Aventis history, houses were represented by sigils based on the **Great Beasts of Aventis Prime**.

Despite mounting a successful challenge to the throne which saw the eventual installation of **King Malastafis I** in 2149, House Bakker saw the Empire as corrupt and chose to continue their exile, despite being allowed to return to prominence for aiding House Fullex during the **Battle of the Sovereign Eyes**, the last battle of the war.

Over the years, House Bakker wandered the stars in their vessels, searching for a new home before finally settling within **Irex Nebula** on the edge of the **Zeta/Lambda Quadrant** border. There House Bakker created a **Free State**, allowing other banished members of the Aventis Empire to join them and even welcoming members of their most hated rivals, the **Rothian Corporation** and **Black Eye Consortium**.

During this period, despite lacking a home planet to settle on, the "**Forwracned"** (or **"Banished"** when translated to **Modern Commonwealth**) amassed huge wealth by accepting mercenary contracts within the Consortium and Rothian Corporation, allowing the Banished's original ship to become a wealthy trade hub concealed within the safety of the Irex Nebula, renamed to **"The Wandering Star"**.
Free Market Cooperative

## General Overview

The Free Market Cooperative, also known as the *FMC*, is a conglomerate of various corporate interests that seeks to promote stability for commercial reasons. It was founded in 2435 in opposition to the Black Eye Consortium Its sole purpose is to create wealth, regardless of the circumstances and their legality, in contrast to the Black Eye Consortium's *"Code of Credit"*.

Despite the economic, social, and occasional political stability the Free Market Cooperative provides, there exists a massive economical and social divide amongst populations living under their jurisdiction. Because the Free Market Cooperative serves to provide for the benefit of increasing one's capital wealth, the wealthy continue to gain more wealth at the expense of the poor and entire ecosystems have been devastated thanks to Free Market Cooperative policy.

It was confirmed in 2452, that *Pur'ik Industries* on the Aventis Empire occupied Exorna Regalis, was an active member at the Free Market Cooperative was supported in its goals directly by the Aventis Empire. Which some suspect is an attempt to weaken the Black Eye Consortium's powerful trade network so that the Aventis can eventually outpace them economically.
Eye of the Abyss

## History

The *Eye of the Abyss* is a *Stellar-Class Black Hole* discovered in November 2452 in the *Jaqc Star System* of the Tau Quadrant. Named the *Eye of the Abyss* in religious significance to the Jaqc Monocracy, the Black Hole (Designated PGX-003 by the Galactic Commonwealth) is unusual due to the rather small number of Black Holes discovered in the Black Eye Galaxy, compared to other galaxies such as the Milky Way Galaxy.

Together, this black hole and its binary star are referred to as the *"Eyes of the Abyss"* by the Jaqc and are worshipped within the holy text known as Aura Dominion. The Jaqc also believe that it is this object that allows *The Speaker* to maintain contact with their deity, known as the Spirit of the Abyss. The Black Hole is slowly consuming its companion star, an O-Type star, which collects stellar material as part of the accretion disk of this rather small black hole. It was believed that this used to be a much larger star, possibly a *supergiant*, which collapsed to form this stellar object.

It is also believed that this object is responsible for the erratic orbit of Barras (Jaqc V), home planet of the Jaqc, which orbits in a stable orbit around both binary pairs, receiving ambient radiation from only the companion star of the black hole. The Jaqc refer to this as *Holy Providence*, a test of survival, created by the Abyss to prove the Jaqc worthy to ascend.

In November 2452, the Jaqc attempted to use the Eye of the Abyss to wipe out all life in the Black Eye Galaxy in a form of religious mass suicide, following their failure to capture *Anthropius* from the Galactic Commonwealth and the death of their leader, Bloodmist IX at the ruins of the Pryde Worldship, forcing the Jaqc to withdraw and call off their *"Holy Crusade"* known as The Abyss War. The Jaqc attempted to fire a *Voltarium Beam* into the singularity, creating a cumulative effect that would increase the gravity of the Black Hole by a factor of a million, destroying all life in the Black Eye Galaxy in the process and causing the galaxy itself to collapse as the Eye of the Abyss merged with Berenices A at the centre of the galaxy.
Adversus Alliance

## General Overview

A long standing alliance between the The Kingdom of Siqhai, The Nations of Min, The Avali Illuminate, The Synth Free Nations, Dromtlatico, The Vaderas Union, and the Sergal species that is hedquartered in the Synth world of Čapek and currently is represented by Queen Seti V in BETO.

## History

The alliance was origionally formed to combat a colonial empire in the Adversus Galaxy named Grendylo, Čapek was chosen as neutral ground mainly due to the Synth's involvement and foothold with the other species. After the war the alliance has been a peacekeeping force meant to preserve good will between the species at the insistance of the Synth Free Nations. Up until the desolvement of the Galactic Commonwealth the organization has been used to handle trade agreements and to represent their galaxy as part of the BETO. The alliance's symbol is a lotus flower with each petal representing each species, now with 7 pedals with the recently included Sergal Nation.

Each of the 7 nations represents a specific stregnth within the alliance:

* The Siqhai secure the alliance's economy and make up the alliance's spy network.
* The Nations of Min provide the alliance with raw resources.
* The Avali make up the alliance's famed dogfighters.
* The Synth Free Nations are a resilliant miliary and worker force for the alliance.
* The Vaderas provide the alliance with advanced technology and military tactics.
* The Dromtl make up some of the alliance's best engineers.
* The Sergals make up some of the alliance's best ground troops.

## Post Commonwealth

Initially the Alliance uses a Vaderas Capital ship, the C.S. Einheit, as a foothold in the Black Eye Galaxy. They are terriforming near Consortium Space since they rely on the Consortium's gateways for travel between their own galaxy. As such, the Alliance is heavily involved in staying on their good graces.
Argussian Coronet Class

The *Coronet-Class* cruiser was the primary warship of the Argussian Republic in 2420.

## History

The *Coronet-Class* was designed after the fall of the Church of Unifying Effulgence, a religious cult that had gained power on New Argus in early 2420. Due to the massacre of 60,000 Argussian lives at the Battle of Chion Prime in July 2420, the Argussian people rose up in *"The August Revolution"* and deposed the Church, forcing the leaders of the fanatical religious sect to abandon the planet.

As a result, the Argussian Republic was formed, with much of the citizenry abandoning their xenophobic and highly religious outlook in exchange for a more peaceful way of life.

The *Coronet-Class* is the first vessel to incorporate both Argussian and Church technology, creating a capable warship.

## Tactical Systems

The *Coronet-Class* is armed with 15 Polaric Modulated Quantum Resonance Energy Cannons. These weapons, specifically developed by the Argussians to assist in boarding actions, are designed to create vulnerabilities within the shields of enemy vessels which the Argussians can use to assist in their raids.

The ship is also equipped with two compressed transphasic antineutrino duel beam banks which are mounted on the forward section of the ship.

This beam has immense destructive power, able to penetrate most conventional shielding and deliver a powerful concussive blast at an enemy ship, releasing a surge of antineutrinos into the enemy vessels power systems. This surge of antineutrinos interferes with the normal operation of a vessel's plasma manifolds which dramatically raises an enemy ship's warp core plasma temperature. Successive hits from this weapon will undoubtedly raise the risk of a containment breach, if the vessel is able to survive bombardment for so long.

The *Coronet-Class* is also fitted with unique Photon Torpedoes which were created from "appraised" Federation blueprints taken from Starbase 12 while the Argussian Imperium was a Federation protectorate.

## Defensive Systems

Like most Argussian vessels, the *Coronet-Class* is equipped with Metreon Multi-Layered Multi-Redundant Shielding Matrix.

This shield, acquired from theft, the traditional way new technologies are acquired by the Argussians, is able to "reflect" a small portion of incoming energy weapon damage from an enemy ship on each successful hit.
Bassari Solidarity Class

## History

The Bassari *Solidarity-Class* is one of the newest and largest vessels within the *Bassari Star Navy*. Designed in 2415, the *Solidarity-Class* displays an impressive amount of firepower for its class as well as being the first Bassari vessel to contain new *"Condensed Warp Coils"*, allowing the vessel to reach impressive speeds on coils smaller then a Defiant Class Starship.

The *Solidarity-Class* was also designed as a fast-response vessel for incursions into Bassari Space and are not often seen outside of Bassari territory.

The vessel itself measures in at just under 1000 meters long and can support troop deployment for just under 2000 per vessel. The vessel also contains a large amount of industrial and refining hardware, able to operate in space for almost a hundred years without external support.

## Tactical Systems

As standard with most Bassari vessels, the *Soldarity-Class* employs a vast array of projectile cannons as their main source of weaponry. These weapons have the advantage of not requiring power from ship's energy systems in order to fire and can be independently targeted from computer-assisted or manual targeting.

Autocannons are designed for short-range encounters and are the primary type of cannon found on most Bassari vessels. They can be loaded with the an extensive list of ammunition types.

Artillery Cannons are designed for long-range targeting and deploy power Carbonised Lead ammunition which gains velocity over distance, increasing damage to traditional shielding and bare hull alike.

## Special

Bassari vessels lack energy shielding technology, preferring to rely on powerful polarised tungstun armour plating, capable of absorbing an impressive amount of kinetic and particle energy.

#### Perestroika Defence Field

Dubbed *Perestroika* by the United Commonwealth of Planets, a Earth word of Russian dialect meaning *Restructuring*, the Perestroika Defence Field is a cumulative defensive field which can be activated when more then one Bassari vessel are operating together, allowing their vessels to share hull polarisation energy, drastically increasing the power of their armour.
Bavanus

Bavanus

## History

Bavanus was discovered by the Cardassian Research Vessel Empok in March of 2453, after discovering a probe that had appeared from within the Peldor Nebula. afterwards the Cardassians contacted the Commonwealth to send President Drake Flamestone to make formal first contact with them on behalf of the Commonwealth and BETO to assist in bringing the Bavani back into the galactic community.

## Environmental

Bavanus has a rich stable ecosystem and whilst technologically advanced, the environment has been well cared for since the population hid from the rest of the galaxy.

## Government and Society

The Bavani have a democratically elected government which has been a stable presence for at least 200 years since the end of the Bavani Civil War when the planet went into 'hiding'
Bluth

## Biography

Like many Dromtl of his generation, Bluth has always wanted to travel and explore the universe. However, lacking a ship or crew of his own, he achieves this by a combination of hitchhiking and taking on odd jobs, just enough to take care of himself and save up towards moving on to another location. Through this, Bluth has ran into the Commonwealth on occasion and even traveled with them as a crewman, but never long enough to advance in rank, instead moving on to another location. Whenever encountered Bluth is willingly helpful and always laid back, no matter what he does he always seems to find a way to do absolutely nothing during it. There is also something unexplained about the way he always turns up in the oddest places, in ways that often defy logic. Sometimes he is even reported coming back from the dead, and event that seems to be barely an inconvenience to him. If there is any saving grace, it is that he doesn't appear to be any danger to anyone, at least, he couldn't be bothered.

## Broism

Ever the erudite philosopher he is, Bluth is a devout follower of the questionable Dromtl religion of "Broism", who are devoted to the worship of The True Bro and who's only real motivation is to become The Dude. Becoming The Dude is achieved by maintaining a "State of Dude" through life, and observance of the their golden rule, to "Be excellent to each other."
Black Eye Galaxy (M64)

## Statistics

* Classification: Flocculent Spiral Galaxy
* Distance from Milky Way: 17 Million Light Years
* Diameter: 52.962 Light Years
* Circumference: 166.300 Light Years
* Life forms: Multiple Lifeforms
* Tech. level: Various

## Physical Characteristics

The Black Eye Galaxy (Evil Eye Galaxy, Sleeping Beauty Galaxy, M64, Messier 64 or NGC 4826) is relatively isolated Spiral Galaxy located 17 Million light years from the Milky Way, in the constellation of Coma Berenices. First discovered in March of the Earth Year 1779 by Edward Pigott, as well as Charles Messier in 1780, the Black Eye Galaxy is one of the most unique galaxies ever discovered in the night sky due to its unique dark band of interstellar dust around a bright nucleus which resembles that of a human iris.

M64 is a type 2 Seyfert galaxy with an HII/LINER nucleus. The central region is a weak source of radio emission. A soft X-ray source has been detected at the nucleus, which is most likely coming from the circumnuclear region rather than directly from an active galactic nucleus. There is an inner disk of molecular gas that is truncated at a radius of 2,300 ly (700 pc). At present, the non-rotational motions of this disk do not significantly feed the core, but the disk does produce a vigorous rate of star formation, with also approx. 100 billion stars inside the galaxy. There is also evidence of a recent large inflow of mass.

The interstellar medium of Messier 64 consists of two counter-rotating disks that are approximately equal in mass. The inner disk contains the prominent dust lanes of the galaxy. The stellar population of the galaxy exhibits no measurable counter-rotation. Possible formation scenarios include a merger with a gas-rich satellite galaxy in a retrograde orbit, or the continued accretion of gas clouds from the intergalactic medium. It has a diameter of 54,000 light-years (17 kpc).

## History

Nothing was known about the Black Eye Galaxy until the Earth Year of 2418, when the **U.S.S. Warrior**, while fighting off an incursion onto Deep Space Three, revealed a dormant Iconian Gateway which had been hidden in subspace within the Tyrannus System of the Alpha Quadrant.
