Atlantis

**Atlantis**, located on the ocean moon Aquila IV, is the capital city of the Aquila Collective, a network of planets within Unchartia's Roswell Arm. Named for the mythical city from human legends, Atlantis is by far the most powerful and influencial colony in the known galaxy. The city is known for its seascrapers and geothermal generators.
Dark Space

**Dark Space**, sometimes called the **intergalactic void**, is the name of the physical space between galaxies in the same way as interstellar space is the space between stars within a galaxy. Dark space is completely dark, as it contains little to no stars and makes up almost the entire volume of the universe, where galaxies are only small islands of light. It is regularly patrolled by supply freighters and bandits making their way between the settled galaxies, with the Milkdromeda Highway being one of the busiest trade routes in the Settled Systems.
Danshingudoragon

***Danshingudoragon*** *(ダンシングドラゴン, "Dancing Dragon")* is a form of human martial arts characterised by rapid punching and kicking techniques, with emphasis on head-height kicks, spinning jump kicks, and fast kicking techniques, while defending with the legs and arms. More advanced practices of *Danshingudoragon* incorporate melee weapons and even gun fu. Known for its ferocity, as well as its usage by notorious criminal groups such as the Neo-Yakuza, the martial art was originally created by the *Zeroeremento* and is now widespread. It borrows techniques and disciplines from martial arts such as *Taekwondo*, Tang Soo Do and Jujutsu, as well as extraterrestrial martial arts such as *Geodoe*.

The song was their first single following their rebranding from CHROME to MechaSkull Jockeys and was their first hit single under this name.
Engram

A **digital neural engram**, better known simply as an **engram**, is the consciousness of an individual which has been copied into coding form, effectively creating an highly sophisticated Virtual Intelligence. The engram possesses the memories, personality and mannerisms of the original individual. Engrams are rare and highly illegal throughout the Settled Systems; the only planet in which they are relatively common is Dark City, where there is little regulation.

## Known Engrams

* "Jack Platinum" - personality engram of rockstar Jack Platinum
* Man in Black - personality engram of rockstar Jack Platinum, later converted into a sentient artificial intelligence
Hadron's Throne (Episode)

**"Hadron's Throne"** is the upcoming eighth and final episode of *Part IV: Hadron's Throne*, the fourth instalment of *Hyperspace: The Cosmic Gospel*. It is the thirty-fourth episode overall and will be written in 2023.

## Plot

*Earth shatters under the weight of war as both sides give everything they have, culminating in a final clash that could decide the fate of the entire Universe.*

## Trivia

* As the finale of each episode shares its name with the subtitle of each respective instalment, the finale of *Part IV: Hadron's Throne* is thus titled "*Hadron's Throne*".
Herschel Nations

The **Herschel Nations** are an independent alliance of the six human planets in the Herschel Galaxy that banded together both for governmental cooperation as well as to form a united front against the Hegemony.

## History

### Background

In 2904 during the Battle of Keystone, a star-sized body of E-C was created from the cataclysmic reaction of three different energies and dubbed the Nexus. Within a year, explorers began using the Nexus to explore new galaxies and settle new worlds far from the authority of the Federated Galactic Alliance. Among these early explorers was a human seperatist group - a precursor to the Rising Tide - who sent six arks through the Nexus to a new, uncharted galaxy with the aim of establishing an entire galaxy for humanity and humanity alone.

The colonists within the six arks each discovered and settled a world that could sustain human life as well as fauna and flora from Earth and other Gaia Worlds. Each planet was named after the ark that settled it: Parker, Cassini, Hawking, Schwarzschild, Newton and Curie.

They are a member of the Virgo Holdings Board and are headquartered at their original franchise location within the rings of Saturn. Like their competitors H&H, Hardy's are known for their 1950s-60s aesthetic and art deco architecture.
Human Preservation League

―The motto of the HPL during the Sol Secession War

The **Human Preservation League (HPL)** was an anthropocentric political party and militia group that advocated for complete *Homo sapien sapiens* (Earth-human)sovereignty over the Sol System during the Sol Secession War. It would later gain immense political power in the HIN in the 23rd Century on a platform advocating human supremacy and isolationism, and subsequently declared human sovereignty over the entire Large Magellanic Cloud via the Magellanic Republic, which led to the First Magellanic War. Following the war, the party was outlawed and many of its high-ranking members were declared war criminals. The Unionist Movement of the Human Interstellar Network began a campaign to reeducate the human population on the crimes of the HPL, and within a decade their actions were widely viewed as amounting to a facist dictatorship. The HIN officially joined the Federated Galactic Alliance following the end of the war.

Surviving members of the party tried to reignite their movement by launching a second rebellion in the LMC, resulting in the Second Magellanic War. However, thanks largely to the reformed HIN this second conflict was nowhere near as devastating or widespread, somewhat repairing humanity's reputation on the intergalactic stage.
Guardian Corps

The **Guardian Corps** is an independent volunteer military force affiliated with the Confederate Armed Forces of the Confederacy of the Great Attractor. It is the largest and most powerful private military in the Settled Systems.

## Organisation and Structure

Despite being a private military, the Corps is significantly integrated in the Confederacy's government; all high-ranking ministers of the Confederacy are required to be registered reserves while also being members of the armed forces. The Corps is armed with a vast fleet of warships and equipped with advanced weapons technology despite their status as a volunteer organization.

## Notable Members

Hyperion: A Space Adventure/Part III

***Part III: Leviathan Falls*** is the third and final installment of *Hyperion: A Space Adventure* and was confirmed in May 2020, before the premiere of *Part II*. It debuted in May 2021. The sequel series - *Hyperspace: The Cosmic Gospel* - in late 2021.

## Plot

*With the Whirlpool in chaos and the Titans rampaging throughout the stars, the crew of the* Olympus *face their biggest challenge yet on their desperate search for allies. With spacetime collapsing around them and the fate of millions on their shoulders, the crew begin the end of their journey as everything they have fought for finally comes together.*

## Synopsis

One year after the Collapse of Asgard and the beginning of the Titan War, the crew of the CS *Olympus* have formed a mighty fleet of colonists, scientists and soldiers to battle against the indoctrinated Frontier Defence Force, now fully controlled by Errol Welles.
Battle of Nexus Station

### Result (Outcome)

Settled Systems and Intergalactic Council victory* The *Darkened Heaven* is destroyed by the HNNS *Righteous Judgement*
* Kalkoranin killed by the crew of the *Unreliable*
* Several thousand upgraded Scourge killed

The **Battle of Nexus Station** was an attack on Nexus Station by the Calculator via the *Darkened Heaven* and its immense Scourge army, which was upgraded at the facility on Sithniatt. The first major battle of the War of the Armadas, the Battle of Nexus Station marked the definitive return of the Calculator, which had remained dormant for hundreds of millions of years. It also thrust the crew of the *Unreliable* into intergalactic fame and admiration, leading to their induction into SpecOperA and ultimately the formation of the private navy Anvil.
Foldhole

―Elijah and Alia about the nature of the foldholes

A **foldspace wormhole**, shortened to **foldhole**, is a wormhole that forms in foldspace instead of realspace. Considered the pinnacle of Remnant FTL technology, they were adapted by modern races into lightfold engines. They can only be created by using a Key and a foldspace crystal together, allowing access to the Crossroad.

## Physics

### Structure

Wormholes, also known as Einstein–Rosen bridges, are structures that link two points in realspace spacetime. Conversely, foldholes are structures that link two points in foldspace spacetime. As a result, while the interiors of wormholes are four-dimensional, foldholes have a five-dimensional structure; this fifth dimension cannot be perceived by modern organic minds.
Hell Energy

**Hell Energy** is an anomalous multi-dimensional energy originating from the planet Hell, where it is emitted into the entire Hades Anomaly. A complex combination of three and four-dimensional energy, it was first harnessed by the Remnants and repurposed by the Calculator to power its Scourge army and its massive fleet of spires. In addition, hell energy is capable of disrupting spacetime, forming wormhole-like areas of space called tears that allow the Scourge to travel across the Universe with ease.

## Properties

Found only on Hell, emitted by the bizarre fungal growths that make up the planet, hell energy's metaphysical nature defies previous laws of physics on other forms of plasma. While plasma itself is a superheated gas to the point of freeing electrons to become ionized, hell energy seems to be stable at higher than thought possible temperatures and can energize objects it comes into contact with. When subjected to radiation or an electrical current, it can contort and tear apart spacetime to form foldhole-like structures called tears that allow for near-instantaneous interstellar - and even intergalactic - travel, similar to the temporal drive of the *Artemis*.
Envoy

The **Envoy** is a construct made up of the emaciated body of Nolan Monroe and the fungal growths of the First that contains the collective consciousness of the Hell fungal colony. During the Battle of Hell, the Envoy was granted to the *Unreliable* to help bring down the Scourge and thus free the hive mind from the agonizing control of the Calculator.
ANS Monroe

―Quarin about the *Monroe*

The **Alliance Navy Ship *Monroe***, call sign **EXPEDITION**,was an ark built by the New Eden Corporation designed to carry over 1 million colonists to the Whirlpool Galaxy. The largest ark and one of the largest ships ever built, at over 3 kilometres long, it was captained by its namesake, the legendary human scientist Paul Monroe. The ship disappeared in 2883, somewhere near the companion galaxy Messier 51b. The mystery surrounding its disappearance led to many referring to it as a "ghost ship". The *Monroe* and its crew reappeared twelve years later to rapture Hyperion-b and harvest its resources, destroying the Olympia Colony in the process and disappearing once again into Dark Space.

At the Battle of Harmony, the *Monroe* was destroyed when the CS *Olympus* ejected its lightfold engine directly on the *Monroe*'s planet harvester, destroying the ship, killing its crew and finally freeing them from the Titan's malevolent control.

## History

### Construction

The ark that would become the *Monroe* was built by the New Eden Corporation around the 2720s on Earth, named after the legendary human scientist Paul Monroe, who was elected to captain it. The majority of the structure was completed in 2728, and was transported to the Andromeda Galaxy 2.5 million light-years away.

### Battle of Harmony

The *Monroe*'s emergency broadcast allowed it to take control of the other New Eden ships in the area above Harmony, assembling a devastating army of ships in a matter of minutes.

#### Destruction

As Erron closed off the air-lock between the *Olympus* and the *Monroe*, he ordered HIE to eject the lightfold engine. As Monroe himself looked on, the *Olympus* fired away as the engine collided with the *Monroe*, unleashing a contained shockwave that all but destroyed the *Monroe*. The subsequent explosion ripped the *Monroe* apart, killing its remaining crew, and preventing the Titans from fully escaping their prison. Half of the ship floated away into the emptiness of space, while the other half of the wreckage crashed on the surface of Harmony.

### Wreckage

What little remained of the *Monroe* crashed onto the surface of Harmony; half of the ship drifted into the emptiness of space, while the rest crashed into the vast ocean of Harmony.

## Technology

### Size

The *Monroe* is by far the largest ark ever built, at over 3 kilometres long, making it larger than some astronomical objects, including some asteroids and moons. This also makes it the seventh-largest starship ever built.

### Harvester

The *Monroe* possesses a harvester originally designed to destroy asteroids and comets to mine water and other resources; when the *Monroe* reappeared, its harvester had been upgraded so it could harvest and destroy entire planets. The harvester proved to be the *Monroe*'s weak point; it was destroyed by the lightfold engine of the *Olympus* at the Battle of Harmony.

### Graviton Core

The *Monroe*'s primary power source is a massive graviton core, one of the largest ever built.
Aeneas

**Aeneas** is the largest and capital city of Venus and one of the most powerful cities in the Human Interstellar Network. It is one of humanity's richest settlements due to its high population of rich families. Aeneas is twinned with the city of Eros.

Aeneas was the site of one of the largest battles of the GIL Uprising during the Sol Secession War, when the city's GIL population revolted against the human population.
Gwen Astro

**Gwen Astro**, formerly known by her underworld alias **"Chishi"**, is a female human and the daughter of John Astro who followed in her father's footsteps to become a gunslinger, albeit one with a penchant for assassination. Following her mother's death, Gwen was taken in by one of her father's many lovers, punk singer Vikki Limelight, and trained in the many arts of the criminal underworld. In 4438, she finally decided to take revenge on her father, only to be drawn into the Exiles' investigation of the Compromised and finally turn against Limelight. In the aftermath she reluctantly joined the Exiles, finally living out her childhood dreams of travelling the stars with her father.
Federal Bureaucratic Office

The **Federal Bureaucratic Office** is an office of the Alliance Civil Service that deals with relations between the numerous colonies and corporations allied with the Federated Galactic Alliance. It is divided into the Colonial Management Division, which oversees colonial government, and the Alliance Corporate Outreach Office, which deals with relations with corporations such as the New Eden Corporation.
Bifrost

**Bifrost** is a wormhole that was discovered 156 light-years from the Andromeda Galaxy in 2236. Several probes were sent into the wormhole, with their signals detected by the Deep Space Network to be coming from the outskirts of the Whirlpool Galaxy, 23 million light-years from the Milky Way. This led to the foundation of the Gaia Program, the second part of the Virgo Initiative, and the start of the Alliance's efforts to colonize the Whirlpool. The *Hydra One* was sent through the wormhole in 2367, confirming the existence of habitable planets in the Whirlpool.

Bifrost is kept sustained by a mechanical ring-station, which feeds the wormhole radiation to keep it open; if the wormhole were to close, it would cut off trade and support for the entire Whirlpool.

## History

### Discovery

Bifrost was discovered by a quantum telescope on the volcanic planet Phlegethon on the far outskirts of the Andromeda galaxy, around 156 light-years outside of the galaxy's official bounds, making it one of the few wormholes discovered in the vast intergalactic void.

## Trivia

* Bifrost is named after the rainbow bridge in Norse mythology that connects the realms of Earth and Asgard.
	+ In series continuity, humans were allowed to name the wormhole as they were credited with discovering it.
Herschel: Dark Horizon

***Herschel: Dark Horizon*** is an upcoming spin-off to the *Hyperion* Saga and the third to not be a part of the COSMOS anthology series. Set after the events of *Part III: Leviathan Falls*, *Herschel: Dark Horizon* will take place in a new galaxy, the Herschel Galaxy, and follow the efforts of six human colonies as they wage war against the Hegemony, an alliance of races native to the galaxy, using the Jaegers, a division of augmented super-soldiers.

## Plot

*Showcasing an epic 33rd Century conflict between humanity and an alien threat known as the Hegemony,* Herschel: Dark Horizon *will weave deeply drawn personal stories with action, adventure and a richly imagined vision of the future hundreds of years before the beginning of* Hyperspace: The Cosmic Gospel*.*

## Characters

### Main

* Triple-7: a Jaeger and a part of the Spartan Order who has been enhanced to the peak of human potential and wears an advanced battle suit to lead the Herschel Nation's war against the Hegemony
* Catherine Monroe: a descendent of Paul Monroe who is the second and current director of the Jaeger Program
* K-55: a Jaeger of the Spartan Order who is able to merge their consciousness with machines and data
* Jasper Young: a descendent of astronaut John Young and current High Commander of Schwarzschild
Fēng

**Fēng** *(Mandarin for "Wind")* is a gas giant located in the Aschere System, located 5.2 AU from its parent. One of hundreds of millions of Saturn-like gas giants, Fēng is unique due to the relatively high concentration of both nitrogen and oxygen in its upper atmosphere, creating a layer of habitable atmosphere complimentary to humans, tarsi and other races. A popular tourist destination, Fēng's small population resides on the FAC, a floating settlement owned by Stellar, Inc.
Celeste

**Celeste**, formerly **Medusa Khan**, is a female mavnian and the adopted daughter of the warlord Shen Khan, who led the Seph in a devastating war against the Federation. A victim of her father's vicious experiments, Celeste repressed most memories of her torment after his defeat and joined John Astro's Exiles to seek a fortune as a bounty hunter.

## Biography

### Early Life & Background

It is unknown where Celeste was born; being a mavnian, it was likely their homeworld Thylla in the Milky Way, although Celeste herself does not remember her true origins. Since her early years, she had been trafficed across the Milky Way and Andromeda, finally ending up in the custody of warlord Shen Khan.

Wanting a successor to eventually take control of his criminal empire, Khan named his new daughter "Medusa" and trained her to become the deadliest assassin in the two galaxies. To enhance her further, he subjected her to excruciating medical procedures that allowed her to surpass the peak of physical condition. When Khan desired further improvements, he removed most of her organic tissue and replaced it with cybernetics. Conditioned to obey her father at any cost, she became his deadliest weapon when Khan and his Seph declared war on the Federation.

During the conflict, Medusa Khan was freed from her father's conditioning, possibly by Starman of the Exiles. When the oppotunity presented itself, Medusa slew her father, or so she believed. With the war over and finally free, she suppressed most of her memories before joining the Exiles, seeking a new life as a free woman.

## Overview

### Personality

Celeste, throughout most of her life, has been molded into a living weapon, and the only family that she knew and raised her are the people she now considers enemies. Because of her assassin background, Celeste can be stoic, distant, and merciless to her foes or targets. Her reputation as one of the most deadly women in the Settled Systems precedes her.

## Powers, Equipment & Abilities

### Abilities

* **Master assassin & combatant:** Celeste was an extremely skilled and formidable hand-to-hand combatant, having trained extensively as an assassin under Shen Khan ever since she was a child as well as years of fighting experience when carrying out Shen Khan's missions, making her one of the most dangerous and best fighters in the Federation; Celeste's skills were so advanced that even Shen Khan himself held her at such high regard that he openly considered her the finest of his children and the fiercest woman in the galaxy.
* **Expert Marksman**: Although Celeste was known to prefer using melee combat, especially swords, much more often, her training under Shen Khan nevertheless allowed her to acquire a level of proficiency in using firearms. She displayed this skill when she effectively wielded a rifle while battling Gus Naird and his henchmen.

## Appearances

### EXILES: The Interstellar Gunslingers

#### Part I: A Chronicle of Space Cowboys

* "Shoot to Thrill"
* "Blinding Lights"
* "Purple Haze"
* "Eruption"
* "Should I Stay...?"
* "...Or Should I Go?"
* "I Got A Name"
* "Paint It, Black"
Antimatter

**Antimatter** is a material composed of antiparticles, particles that share almost all physical features of their normal particle counterparts. However, it has a reverse charge referent to its corresponding normal particle. When antimatter and matter come into contact, the particles annihilate in a burst of energy. Due to the immense amounts of energy released in matter-antimatter reactions, antimatter is used for a variety of purposes, from weaponry to propulsion, although it is notoriously hard to store and transport.
Green Star

The **Green Star** is an anomalous star in the eastern void of the Ambrosia Galaxy. As its name suggests, the star emits green light, making it the only known star to do so, at least to the human eye. The Green Star has only one planet, Sithniatt, which became the target of the *Unreliable* and its crew on their mission to uncover the true power behind the Scourge.

Five years after their quest to Sithniatt, the crew of the *Unreliable* discovered the Green Star's true purpose: it was a starbridge, a gateway to the distant galaxies of the Great Wall.

## Trivia

* True green stars are not possible as the black body locus on a black body curve does not pass through green in the visible spectrum.
Don Laser

**Don Laser** was a human male and the CEO of A.C.E, a military corporation based in the Aschere System. Obsessed with ascending himself and his company to the Virgo Holdings Board, he conspired with Mother's Robotics CEO Mother to seize the secret of the adrift *Sojourner*: the peculiar properties of the Gaping Maw that allowed for the creation of gravity weapons. To this end, Laser relentlessly pursued the *Sojourner*'s sole surviving occupant, the Stargazer, across the Aschere System, finally cornering their crew on the planet Sojourner. Laser went down with his ship, the *Ivan the Terrible*, in a final battle with the Stargazer for control of the shrink ray.

## Biography

### Early Life & Background

Little is known about Laser's background, other than he was born in the Aschere System, likely the capital planet of New Eden VI; as a result, he was the legal property of the New Eden Corporation. At some point, Laser escaped his corporate bounds and founded his own military corporation, Aschere Collateral, and formed an alliance with the sentient artificial intelligence Mother, CEO of Mother's Robotics, in order to secure his company a seat on the Virgo Holdings Board.

## Overview

### Personality

Laser was the epitome of corporate greed and corruption, a man willing to do anything to secure his company a seat on the Virgo Holdings Board with little to no care about the consequences for the innocents of the Aschere System.
Human Interstellar Network/Government

Below is a record of the system of government of the Human Interstellar Network, an intergalactic superpower that claims to represent all of humanity in the Settled Systems.

## Sapien Council

The **Sapien Council** is the executive collective head-of-state of the Human Interstellar Network, consisting of fourteen delegates, the Grand Chancellors, who are voted by the HIN Congress. The Sapien Council is responsible for the enforcement of all laws in the HIN's constitution. The Council itself then votes internally to elect the head of the council, who tolds the title of Interstellar Chancellor and is the highest authority figure in the Human Interstellar Network.

### Organization

#### Interstellar Chancellor

The Interstellar Chancellor, commonly known as the Imperator, is the head of state and head of government of the HIN, as well as the Commander-in-Chief of all HIN military forces. The Interstellar Chancellor is selected by a direct internal vote by the fourteen delegates of the Sapien Council; any sitting member of the Council - the Grand Chancellors - can stand for election. There is no term limit for the position, but elections are held every five Earth-years.

The current Interstellar Chancellor is Kendra Young; the inaugural holder was former UN Secretary-General Alden Kaine.

#### Grand Chancellors

The Grand Chancellors are the 14 elected representatives of humanity's fourteen core planets. Each Grand Chancellor serves as the head of state of their respective planet. Five-year single terms are enforced upon ten of these 14 Grand Chancellors; the Grand Chancellors of the four Gaia Worlds - Earth, Elysium, Terra and Eden Prime - have no term limits but are still subject to elections every five years. The Grand Chancellor of Earth is *ex officio* the Vice-Imperator of the HIN.
Hyperion System

The **Hyperion System** is a solar system centred around the main-sequence star Hyperion, which itself is surrounded by five planets, of which two are habitable. The *Odyssey*, an ark carrying 500,000 scientists and soldiers, arrived in 2895 and began colonizing Hyperion-b.

## Orbiting Bodies

Aegean Ocean

The **Aegean Ocean** is a vast subsurface ocean located beneath the icy surface of Europa, first detected in the 1960s and first explored by the Europa Clipper probe in 1992. The ocean is home to an ecosystem of complex lifeforms, the only such ecosystem in the Sol System outside of Earth. The ocean is also one of three subsurface oceans settled in the Sol System, alongside the Arcus Ocean of Callisto, the Amaro beneath Enceladus, and the Tritonian Ocean beneath Triton.
Deciding Factor

**Deciding Factor**, also known as **The Factor**, is, as of the 55th century, a network of sentient artificial intelligences based on the planet Borealis, led by the engram Jack Platinum. When it was founded, it was a large criminal empire founded and led by Zero and Engram that began to dominate crime throughout Dark City following the Second Wendigo Crisis. When Dark City became uninhabitable, the engram took control and re-dedicated the organization to safeguarding organics from evil synthetics, including the Calculator.
Earth

## Biology and Population

### Life

3.1 million different life forms *(Unicellular and Multicellular. Marine, Terrestrial, Ariel, Subglacial)*

### Capital

London

**Earth**, also known as **Gaia One**, is a terrestrial planet and the original homeworld of humanity. Located in the Sol System, orbiting around 150 million miles (1 AU) from Sol, it is the epicentre of humankind's efforts to expand outwards into space. It is widely regarded among the human species as their ancestral home but is often looked down upon as a primitive planet by more advanced races. Despite this, the planet was invited to occupy one of the seven seats on the Council of the Golden Worlds. It is the core and the capital of the Human Interstellar Network, the most populous representative government in the Settled Systems. The planet was also known as **Aelryn** by the Gekoids before humans were integrated into the Alliance.

While some parts of the Earth are a paradise, others are now inhospitable desert lands, completely sucked dry of their resources.

## History

### Divergence

In this divergent version of Earth, the Dark Ages never occurred, and so humanity was 1000 years more advanced by the mid-20th century. J.F.K also survived his assassination, and so the Apollo Space Program expanded beyond the Moon and into the far reaches of the solar system.

### Humanity Expands Outwards

Upon making contact with the civilizations of the Federated Galactic Alliance, Earth was designated a "Golden World" and was therefore invited to join the Council of the Golden Worlds, the FGA's ruling council.

### Reaching the Whirlpool

The Gaia Program, the FGA effort to reach the Whirlpool, was founded in 2138; Earth joined the effort in 2140. Notable human contributions included the ark ANS *Monroe*, captained by legendary human scientist Paul Monroe.

## Trivia

* Other races often mispronounce Earth as "E-arth", likely due to them considering it primitive compared to other races.
Borealis Republic

The **Borealis Republic**, officially the **United Alramechan Republic of Borealis** and formerly known as the **Confederacy of Borealis**, is a unitary republic of planets founded in the Alramech System of the Euclid Galaxy. Founded by the first explorers who used the Nexus to explore other galaxies, the Borealis Republic was the precursor state to the modern Confederacy of the Great Attractor and now constitutes its principle member-state. Its capital is Borealis, which also serves as the capital of the Confederacy as a whole.
Dark Matter

**Dark matter** is a form of matter that accounts for approximately 85% of the matter in the Universe and about a quarter of its total mass–energy density. Dark matter is called "dark" because it does not appear to interact with the electromagnetic field, which means it does not absorb, reflect or emit electromagnetic radiation, and is therefore difficult - or, in the case of less advanced civilizations, impossible - to detect. Dark matter fuel is the second-most potent known form of starship fuel, after liquid radio.

The largest known concentration of this type of matter in the known Universe is the Great Attractor, a dark matter anomoly that serves as the central gravitational point of the Laniakea Supercluster.
ANS Odyssey

**Alliance Navy Ship *Odyssey***, call sign **ENDEAVOUR**,was one of several arks sent to the Whirlpool Galaxy as part of the Gaia Program, carrying around 500,000 soldiers and scientists of the Alliance Navy. The *Odyssey* arrived at Hyperion-b in 2895 and was placed in orbit around the planet as 60,000 of its inhabitants descended to create the Olympia colony. It is over 2 kilometers long and weighs more than 20 million metric tonnes.

## Crew & Passengers

* Erron Rayes
* Ashley Briggs
* Weldom Krieger
ESC Marco Polo

The **Exploration StarCraft *Marco Polo*** is an Intrepid-class starship operated by cartographer and Constellation employee Schrödinger to explore Unchartia.

## Layout

### Size

At twenty-eight metres in length and weighing in at over 300 metric tons, the *Marco Polo* has extensive and comfortable living space ideal for long expeditions through the cosmos. The *Marco Polo*'s size requires it to be fitted with an elevator to quickly move through its four decks.

### Living Quarters

The upper deck of the *Marco Polo* serves as Schrödinger's lodgings and is equipped with a furnished bedroom, a stocked kitchen filled with rations, and a cryogenic pod to extend Schrödinger's lifespan during his journey through Unchartia.

### Flight Deck

#### Cockpit

The *Marco Polo*'s state-of-the-art cockpit is equipped with all of the necessary monitors, sensors and controls that Schrödinger requires to explore and analyse new worlds. The cockpit is also equipped with a hologram projector through which Wallace and Schrödinger can communicate.

#### Sensory Room

The sensory room is a small room at the rear of the flight deck where Wallace's central core is stored. The room is covered in specialized lasers and projectors, which generate a virtual environment that Schrödinger can fully interact with. While wearing a special headset, Schrödinger can also experience sounds, smells and tastes, all artificially generated by the virtual reality. The room is designed to prevent, or at least mitigate, the mental health issues that can arise from the extreme isolation that comes with cartography.

## Technology

### Propulsion & FTL Travel

* **Hydrogen fuel boosters:** The *Marco Polo* primarily runs on a set of eight cold hydrogen fusion boosters located at the rear of the ship. These boosters are each a nuclear fusion reactor where light hydrogen isotopes are forced together by two small gravity field generators, producing enough energy to allow the ship to travel at around 15% of the speed of light under minimal thrust.
* **Graviton loop array:** *To be added...*

### Other

* **Inertia dampeners:** The *Marco Polo* is equipped with a set of inertia dampeners, which create a gravitational force throughout the entire ship that provides a counterbalance to the inertia generated when the ship suddenly decelerates.

## Crew

* Schrödinger - captain
* Wallace - VALIP
* HIGGS
* BOSON
* 8 unnamed drones

## Trivia

* The ESC *Marco Polo* is named for Marco Polo, a Venetian merchant, explorer, and writer who travelled through Asia along the Silk Road in the 13th century.
Captain's Signal

A **Captain's Signal** is a type of non-verbal communication that involves the captain of a starship moving their arms or hands to signal the crew that they have express permission to jump to FTL speeds. First used on stealth cruisers, the action has become a tradition among ship captains across the Alliance's navy. Such signals are unique to each captain, and can range from as little as a simple head nod to sweeping an arm in a full arc.

## Notable Examples

* Erron Rayes - clenched fist, arm raised into the air, brought down quickly to the side
* Stargazer - two-finger salute
Apocalypse

**"Apocalypse"** is the twelfth instalment in the *COSMOS* anthology series and the first instalment in Collection III.

## Plot

*A mysterious galactic traveller dances between planets as an entire star system descends into its apocalypse.*

## Synopsis

In an unnamed star system, intelligent life evolves and spreads to other planets, successfully colonizing every celestial body in their system. Eventually, however, civil conflicts arise, leading to a system-wide war. The species begins to prepare the launch of a massive nuclear arsenal as their apocalypse approaches.

On the day of the apocalypse, a seemingly human man sits meditating on an asteroid. As the nuclear launches begin, the man stands and lights a cigarette as an ethereal song begins to play. As he smokes, he begins to dance before the weapons launch. The dancer flies across the system, watching as the unnamed civilization crumbles and falls.

The dancer sets down on the species' home planet. As the music surges, the dancer places its toes on the ground, shattering the planet's surface. Lava emerges from beneath, drowing the survivors in fire. The dancer returns to orbit as the planets implodes, unleashing magma into space. As the pieces of the planet fly off into space, the dancer lets go of their cigarette as a bright ball of light forms in the planet's place. The dancer looks longingly at the destroyed system and walks into the light.
Hegemony

The **Hegemony** are a theocratic hegemony made up of multiple alien species that maintain control over a large portion of the Herschel Galaxy. A political, military, and religious alliance between four races, the Hegemony are united in the worship of the Antecedent and the ringworlds. The Hegemony are waging a genocidal war against humanity's Herschel Nations beginning in the 33rd Century.

## Society and Culture

The species that make up the Hegemony come from different parts of the Herschel Galaxy and take all kinds of physical forms. The Hegemony is organized into a caste system with their religious leaders, the Exalted, at the top of the hierarchical pyramid.

### Caste System

The Hegemony society is a single hegemonic culture. It is a culture that practices imperial geopolitical dominance through implied means of power as opposed to direct military force. There are three Hegemony castes that make up the unity: the Religious caste, the Warrior caste, and the Worker caste.

## Member Species

### Shiitano

> *Main Article: Shiitano*
>
>

The highest caste, the Shiitano, or "Exalted" as they are known to the Herschel Nations, lead the Hegemony and exert complete control over all religious and political affairs. Though physically weak, the Exalted wield power through absolute command of the Hegemony and through scavenged Antecedent technology, leaving the task of conquest to the Saurians and the other races. Their higher understanding of the Antecedent gives them great ego and religious influence over the Hegemony.

### Saurians

*Main Article: Saurian*

The second highest caste, the Saurians, or "Spartans" as they are known to the Herschel Nations, serve as the military leaders of the Hegemony, responsible for almost all of their military campaigns and naval engagements. They maintain the military structure of the Hegemony and ensure the Exalted' orders are followed, as well as their own. Saurians consider the other client races to be below them in all ways. Saurians are separated into strict ranks based on skill and experience; to advance in rank, Saurians must honorably earn such advancements on the battlefield.
Ark

* ANS Odyssey
* ANS Monroe

**Arks** are massive starships built by the New Eden Corporation to carry millions of colonists to the Whirlpool Galaxy, some of which were later repurposed to colonize new galaxies and star systems. They range from colony and research vessels to mining and trade ships. In the aftermath of the Titan War, the remaining arks were purchased by various factions in the Settled Systems, who used them to colonise yet more galaxies via the Nexus.

## History

### Disappearance of the ANS *Monroe*

The ANS *Monroe*, carrying nearly 1 million colonists and scientists, last made contact on the Deep Space Network after entering Messier 51b, the companion galaxy of the Whirlpool, on a scouting mission. The ship was not heard from again for over twelve years.

### Arrival of the *Odyssey*

The ANS *Odyssey*arrived in the Whirlpool in 2891, its destination being the Hyperion System. It arrived at Hyperion-b, the second planet from Hyperion, in 2895.

## Known Arks

* ANS *Odyssey*- science and colony vessel, destroyed in 2896
* ANS *Monroe*- science, exploration and colony vessel, disappeared in 2887, destroyed in 2899
* ANS *Sulyek*- scouting and mining vessel
Elysium

**Elysium**, originally classified as **Ross 128 b**, is a terrestrial planet orbiting within the inner habitable zone of the red dwarf FI Virginis (Ross 128), at a distance of about 11 light-years from Earth. One of the most powerful human colonies in the Human Interstellar Network, Elysium is one of the four permanent representatives on the Sapien Council, the executive body that governs the HIN, alongside Earth, Terra and Eden Prime.
Graviton Core

A **graviton core** is a primary or secondary starship power generator that can interact with and manipulate gravitons, the physical particle of gravity, by subjecting them to intense electricity. When used as a primary drive, these high-energy, often unstable engines are used in starships to generate warp fields, where the space in front of the starship is contracted and the space behind it is expanded, effectively allowing the starship to achieve FTL travel without the ship itself actually travelling near the speed of light.

Graviton cores can also be used as secondary power drives, including as a back-up reactor, for generating wormholes leading to specified locations, and mass-reduction, although all of these are notoriously dangerous and unstable processes. Graviton cores are classed as a type of "warp drive" as they do not allow instantaneous travel between one point and another, and instead warp the space around a starship instead of increasing the velocity of the ship (warping), making them ideal for intergalactic travel.

## Physics

### Gravitons

> *Main Article: Graviton*
>
>

Graviton cores derive their energy by harnessing the physical particle of gravity, the graviton, a type of exotic matter discovered by the Monroe Foundation via the Monroe Formula, a mathematical formula discovered by its namesake Paul Monroe.
Heaven's Thunder

**"Heaven's Thunder"** is the upcoming ninth episode of *Part III: Age of the Scourge*, the third instalment of *Hyperspace: The Cosmic Gospel*. It will be written in the second half of 2022.

## Plot

*Anvil and their allies prepare to engage the Scourge forces, unprepared for the chain of events that is about to unfold...and the foe that lies below.*
ANS Sulyek

**Alliance Navy Ship *Sulyek*** was one of several arks sent to the Whirlpool Galaxy as part of the Gaia Program, carrying around 500,000 soldiers and scientists of the Alliance Navy. The ark's current status is unknown, but its passengers successfully settled several systems in the northern arm of the Whirlpool.
Gaia Program

Founded in 2238 and launched in 2367 as part of the Virgo Initiative, the **Gaia Program** is a civilian, multi-species project created to send scientists, explorers, and colonists on a trip to settle the Whirlpool Galaxy. Humans are the designate leading species, after the Gekoids led the Andromeda Program.

Gaia is the second effort of Milky Way species to reach another galaxy, after the successful Andromeda Program. With powerful benefactors lending their support, the program has grown substantially in scope since its inception. The program’s ultimate goal is to establish a permanent presence on the resource-rich frontier of the Whirlpool and eventually create a reliable route between it and the Andromeda and Milky Way galaxies, and eventually other galaxies in the future.
Grim Reaper Orbital Weapon

The **Grim Reaper Orbital Weapon (GROW)** was an asteroid-sized Remnant satellite that was used to mine entire planets. By the time the Remnants disappeared, the Grim Reaper had become dormant. It was discovered by colonists in the Beacon System and was moved into the orbit of Harmony.

During the Battle of Harmony, the Frontier Defence Force managed to activate the Grim Reaper, using it to kill the Titan known as Kerver the Cruel. Its antimatter core was then removed and piloted by Ashley Briggs into the Breach, closing it and preventing the escape of yet more Titans.

Privatinsel

Ausgangszustand der Privatinsel

Die Privatinsel (auch bekannt als **Spielerinsel**) ist der Ort, an dem alle Spieler ihr SkyBlock-Abenteuer beginnen. Die Spieler können hier frei bauen und Blöcke abbauen, so dass sie ihre Insel nach ihren Wünschen gestalten können. Sie können auch Minions platzieren, um Ressourcen zu sammeln, sowie Portale, um schnell von ihrer Insel zu reisen.

Wenn du in das Void fällst, verlierst du keine Coins, es sei denn, du wirst in das Void gestoßen oder von einem Mob getötet, erstickst in einem Block oder stirbst an Fallschaden. (Wenn du im Kampf bist und dann selbst in das Void fällst, verlierst du keine Coins. Du musst von einem Mob in das Void gestoßen worden sein.)
Byzantium Dye

**Byzantium Dye** ist ein EPIC Dye.

## Beschaffung

Ein **Byzantium Dye** hat eine Chance von 0.000005% oder 1 zu 20,000,000, von einem [Lv95]  Voidling zu droppen, der von einem  Voidling Minion auf der Private Island des Spielers gespawned wurde.

## Nutzung

**Byzantium Dye** kann auf jedes Rüstungsteil mit der Grundtextur einer Leather Armor angewendet werden, indem die beiden Gegenstände in einem Anvil kombiniert werden, um die Hex-Farbe des Teils in #702963 zu ändern.
