Raysillian Empire

## General Overview

The Raysillian Empire is a system wide Empire which controls a large section of space in the northern section of the Lambda Quadrant. Unlike most civilizations in the known galaxies, the Raysillian Empire is a Reclusive and Pacifistic race of spiritual rift dragon like reptiles that has somewhat surpassed mostly every race on record on the technological scale due to their primary focus on Research and Development.

The empire has been around as long as the very concept of time was invented. These somewhat large, spiritual and scientific reptiles have watched many younger species evolve over their lifetime. Due to an accelerated advancements in specialized, high-tech medical and scientific endeavors, the Raysillian Empire is somewhat considers as one of the most advanced species the Federation has discovered and they estimate that the Raysillians were approximately 2000 years ahead in their technology, social structure and spiritual ventures.

## Established History

Raysillius Prime was formed in the Zeta Quadrant approximately about 48 Billion years ago, the planet at this time was a classic M-Class world with warm temperatures and more tropical environment At this time the Raysillians were only strange creatures living under the ground and haven't fully evolved into what they are today.

Fast forward to about 38 Billion years ago as the "First Way" or "The Founders" Raysillians started to populate the tropical environment forming tribal villages and community all across the world, linked together by strong psychic waves and telepathy that was transmitted though the floating ball between their horns.

Around this time they had somewhat of a tribal civil-war between clans Zu'Kar (Infinity) and Ra'Volt (Defiance) this civil-war lasted for 1000 years before both sides surrenders and joined together forming the clan Volt'Kar "The Expanse" this Clan formed the Religion we know today called "They Great Expanse" that is more of a Spiritual journey with meditation and higher-thoughts other than believing in a god or gods.

Another war soon would brake out between the world and an outside force, unknown creatures from what appears to be "Shadow" attempted to destroy the Raysillians and their home world which resulted in a 1000 year dark-age and a renaissance period around 26 Billion years ago.

Skip ahead to about 21 Billion years ago as their golden age started to flourish as every single Raysillian on the planet has banded together in one Empire. The Raysillian Empire was formed around the same time as this was the start of a new life and Empire for the Raysillian people. New ideologies and rapid-innovation but most of this information had been lost to time.

Around 17 Billion years ago they Raysillians have become heavily modernized (our time now), due to an accelerated industrial and atomic age that resulted in many years of prosperous innovation that pushed them to invest more time into their research and development devisions across their world as well as the start of their paranoia after the dark age. They will become more and more secretive with their technology with outsiders.

Skip ahead to some of the most resent events involving the Raysillian Empire. With their paranoia to even open up to the thought of entertaining or shearing their extensive knowledge to outsides soon lead to the destruction of their entire species. In the early 20th century sometime in the 1920s the blue giant in the center of Raysillus System dis-stabilized due to unknown reasons causing a massive supernova that engulfed their entire system, they had no chance to react before almost everything was lost.

Some automated systems somewhat survived the destruction of the system and began an attempt to recover any organic life left and to rebuild the civilization from the ground up. This automated system managed to salvage and repair one of the larger Raysillian Universal Constructors and began digistructing construction vessels and datacore ships similar to the RDF "Tranquility" a Raysillian datacore cruiser that downloaded about 500,000 Stratagos individuals to her datacores.

Between that time and the present, between years 2170-2420 the Raysillian Empire; now refereed to as the Raysillian AI Remnant lead by an advanced Raysillian AI who has been trying to rebuild the empire. This AI has rescued a large number of Raysillian mind/memory scans and has been transferring each individual into robots, drones and androids to try to preserve the Old-World.

The newly formed Commonwealth Fleet had their first contact with the Raysillian AI Remnant by the U.S.S. Nightshade back in November 2419, with strong diplomatic relations forming, they were invited to join the Commonwealth Charter and now is one of the many spices who has a chair in the Council.

## Civilization

#### Language:

The Raysillian language is one of the most hardest to translate due to their use of symbols and a lot of growls and vocals. Some language is even transmitted via their short-range telepathy. Their language was even more tricky to understand back in the old-world times as an ancient Raysillian stone tablet had been recovered before the destruction of Raysillius Prime.

From very basic translations, this stone tablet depicts the fall of light and the end times, some sort of prophecy of doomsday prediction as well as a long list of various Raysillian names. This tablet is about 23 Billion yeas old and emits a strange, green glow from the engraved symbols, letters and drawings on the unknown stone slab.

## Technology Overview

Raysillian Technology has somewhat utilitarian aspects in design but much more smooth, sleek and sterile. Somewhat like a lab environment. Most of their tech and ships are a distinct mixture of flowing bent panels, right angles, hexagons and sharply rolled off edges. Best-In-Class design it is a term thrown around a lot when it comes to Raysillian technology and equipment.

Most of the new-age Raysillian tech is made from a unique metal polymer enhanced by nanobots and due to how secretive Raysillian tech is, most of the information is classified.

List of known Raysillian technology:

* Raysillian Universal Constructor

## Raysillian Defense Force

The Raysillian Defense Force (RDF) is the main military force of the Raysillian Empire, this consists of Army, Navy and Military Engineering and is in charge of the protection of the Raysillian Empire and their system as well as to manage and maintain military constructions such as ground forces, starships and outposts.

## Relevant People

Doctor. N. Storm being one of the most beloved Recherches of the Raysillain Empire and one of the Head Scientists for the entire civilizations Research and Development devision for the entire Empire. Is the last recorder Raysillian alive after the "End Time" event that destroyed the entire system vier their star (Raysillian SG-77) a Main Sequence Blue Giant-B5 which went supernova around the earth year of 1919 vaporizing the entire civilization, race and star system.

Dr. Storm was the only Raysillian to have survived the event on record. At the time of the supernova he was conducting a test-flight of a Raysillian galaxy jumper prototype vessel, a one-manned fighter sized ship capable of interstellar travel in minuets using an array of quantum entanglement systems and quantum-warp technology. After being a witness of the supernova itself and his home world burning before his eyes he was instructed by the Raysillian Science team to test-jump and save himself. Hesitant Dr. Storm complied with this instruction and left behind his world and jumped into Quantum-Warp in a random direction ending up in the Milky-way Galaxy about ten minuets after the jump-drive was enraged.

Sadly once the jump was made the Prototype ship's Frame-Shift Drive malfunctioned leaving Storm adrift, sending out a general distress signal a federation ship (USS Frontier) intercepted Storm and his ship sadly Storm had to set the self-district on his vessel due to his paranoia of his race. Didn't what that kind of technology falling into anyones hands. Somewhat worried about being 'rescued' he soon settled down and taken back to Earth to start his new life as a federation doctor/scientist.

In the year of 2419 Dr. Storm is a member of the United Commonwealth Of Planets in the Black Eye Galaxy (Home Galaxy) as a Chief Medical Officer and a council member, representing the remnant of the Raysillian Empire's former glory.

Dr. Storm is somewhat the last organic Raysillian still alive to this day.

## Notes

* The Raysillian Empire were first encountered in the U.S.S. Nightshade episode, "The Edge Of Insanity" on the 27th November 2019
* The Raysillian Empire was destroyed sometime in the early 22nd century, sometime around 2170 by a forced supernova about 250 years ago.
