Parzon-Da

## Game Information

Ruins of lost cities past can be found all over this planet. Those who live there spend their entire life times fighting off the creature that take up residence in those ruins in attempt to unlock their secrets. These creatures never seem to leave the ruins, but no matter how many that are killed they do not stop spawning. It appears that some force, possibly the one that destroyed this civilization, wants to keep these secrets locked away quietly.

## The Path of Knowledge

Long ago the Parzonites were amazing seers, their future sight was unparalleled. This knowledge brought them tons of prosperity, and they built massive temples and structures to help expand on their abilities. Different Factions of Parzonites had different types of Seer abilities.

Some could understand prophecies and see far into the future, the Futurists. While others had the ability to see only a few seconds into the future, but so accurately they could use it in combat, The Specialists. There were also the groups of seers that were considering Empaths who could get a feeling about a certain situation, and know if it would work or not. Though not everyone had seer powers, there were those known as the Thoughtless, and many of them would be sent to work in the mines.

Then one day, a Futurist saw a devastating disaster that was about to befall the world. The three factions spend nearly a decade trying to figure out a solution, and protect their cities, but to no avail. Many of the Parzonites died that day, only a few survived of the Seer factions. The disaster raised the water level so high, as a new moon entered orbit with Parzon-Da.

The only remaining place was the Convesta Mountain Range, where the mine was. A Few of the Specialists that were guarding the entrance were the only ones left. Since the four of them were all that remained of the seers, and in the interest of preserving their species. They decided to release the captive miners in an attempt to save the Parzonites as a whole. However, not knowing why this was happening, many of the captive Parzonites killed the specialists, wiping out the seer factions completely.

## The Here and Now

The Thoughtless became the dominant species on the planet, but they knew nothing of what the seers had accomplished in their solitude in Mt. Convesta. It was not long before the water receded to a more reasonable level. The Parzonites who were left began constructing new cities, and setting up laws so nothing like what happened to them would happen again.

Parzon-Da now has two factions, one that has decided to take the simple life making basic ship weapons and ammunition. The second who scours the planet for any sign of how to bring the seer powers back to the species. The Second group's main goal is to see if their people could be taught to be able to use the seer powers of their lost ancestors.

Some of them have discovered the ruins of a temple and began to uncover it. It was one of the temples that the futurists used to amplify their powers. Thus far they have not dug it out completely, and it will be a long process, since they do not want to disturb the ruins as a whole.

The ammo for the weapons made by the gunsmithing faction are infused with the needles that grow on the Parzonite’s body. This makes them much better at accuracy, speed, and range. The Syrites often rely on the Parzonites to make the ammunition for the weapons they build. Which puts the Parzonites as pinnacle weapons crafters, especially in the alpha sector.

The Keganits have been providing Parzon-Da with ships and other supplies as well, as Kegan is a neighboring Planet. It was Kegan’s help that brought Parzon-Da into the space fairing age. This new age has helped both factions, mostly for the protection of the Ammo Crafters, and the Knowledge of other planets for the Archeology Faction.

## Parzonites

Parzon-Da is one of the newest planets in the space union, joining officially, just before Aktania. The Parzonites have just begun registering in the galactic assessment system, so many of them do not get out much. So they have not made much of an impact on the Sector, and galaxy.

The Parzonite are short, standing no more than four feet tall. They have spines that grow all over their body. These spines can be fired at their foes without much effort, and they are replaced very quickly. Attacking a Parzonite from behind would be a poor decision, as the spines can be made rigid in an instant.

There are currently no notable Parzonites.

## Entertainment

Parzon-Da is an Archeologist and Historian's dream. There are many small ruins of their lost civilization, and the Parzonites are always looking for people to help them dig up and explore any they find. You can find ruins big and small, and it is speculated that there might be ruins of an entire city somewhere under the surface, or even sank deep into the water.

There is a festival of knowledge every year in Parzon-Da’s spring. There are loads of festival games, and attractions here. One such game is “Can You See the Future”, in which the contestants are given cards. These cards are used to make guesses about what finished the dealer's event card. The festival also includes a ranged weapon competition.

Parzon-Da has turned the old mines in Mt. Convesta into a history museum and Knowledge center. It depicts all the hard work that the Parzonites did before and after the cataclysm that struck the world. It also contains all the information about the seers that has been found. Most young Parzonites take trips to Mt. Convesta one time during their lives, whether by their parents, or at school.

Parzon-Da has the second best library in the Sector, next to the Library on Nix. The planet has been ecruing knowledge for nearly 500 Years. Additionally so that information is not lost like it was when the Seers were killed, they have chosen to record everything that they can. The Libraries usually have a restoration department where Parzonites work to ensure that books do not deteriorate and become lost this way.

## Sharp Dishes, Spiked Drinks

The Parzonites are not really the best cooks, and usually do not take a ton of effort to make special dishes. Importing talent is what they would prefer to do. Most of the Parzonites want to work on the ability to find out what was lost in the past, or to craft their weapons and ammo for the space union orders.

You can expect Keganites and Aktania food to make their way into Parzonite restaurants. However the outsiders who live here have made an attempt to make a themed dish. Shrill Stick and Mush is a dish that is often made as a signature Parzonite dish. Spiny and Meaty Shrill legs are added to a mashed mushroom and root vegetable. This makes the dish look like sleeping hedgehog, and despite its nearly unappetizing name, it is very good.

After a long day's work, a Parzonite might go to a bar to read, and drink a special brew made for focusing your mind. This is called Washaway Ale, and  it is made with fermented Seastars, a fruit that seems to have adapted to grown on the coast. The effect of this drink is that it helps you focus and absorb knowledge from what you are currently reading.
