Two-Hundred-Year Calm

The **Two-Hundred-Year Calm**, or simply the **Calm**, was the time period defined by relative peace within the Cassiopeia Galaxy, having taken place between the end of the First Crusade and the beginning of the Second Crusade, which were large-scale galactic conflicts started by the Vespasian Empire. Because no large-scale galactic conflicts were known to have taken place during this era, the Two-Hundred-Year Calm was recognized as an unprecendented time of tranquility in a sea of messy galactic historical events.

## History

### Ashes of War

After the end of the First Crusade, the Vespasian Empire decided to, as a sign of good faith, send diplomats to all the worlds that fought against them in years past, in order to apologize for their transgressions during the First Crusade. What was especially noteworthy by those of the time period was the sending of diplomats to the domains of the Zhuyin and Drazarians. What made this political decision intriguing was the fact that the Zhuyin and Drazarian powers had hardly, if ever, gotten involved with the rest of the galaxy's affairs, as they were mostly neutral during the First Crusade.

This political decision made by the Vespasians, among other factors, was done at the behest of the Sentinel of Vespasia at the time, and by extension the current Caesar. This Sentinel Vespasia in particular also had a large influence on the Consultum Senate, having been their most prolific member.

With all of these factors at play, the galaxy continued to live in relative peace for around two centuries, without any major political struggles or conflicts arising from any notable galactic nations within Cassiopeia.

Sanctuary

## The Sanctuary

The **Sanctuary** was a terrestrial, glistening planet in the Cassiopeia Galaxy, covered in white grasslands and oceans of magic. The planet served as the main base of operations for the dogmatic Grand Order of Magic.

## Description

The Sanctuary was a rocky world situated near the center of the galaxy, deep within the Inner Core region. The planet's close proximity to the galactic core, with the mass accumulation of stars and light, tended to distract and drive off wayward travelers and made the planet difficult to travel to for any starship pilots unfamiliar with the proper travel routes. The Sanctuary had but one moon, the Keep, which was around a fourth of the planet's size.

From space, the Sanctuary glistened with brilliant whites and blues. The temperate surface of the planet was completely covered in lush plains of white-bladed grass and sparkling oceans composed of pure magic. Many compared the shine of the sea to the glow of runestone. The Sanctuary was strongly, innately engulfed in magical energies. For this reason, the Sanctuary was considered a holy world by both members of the Grand Order and by others throughout the galaxy.

The inhabitants of the planet, which were members of the Grand Order of Magic, made their homes in ancient white buildings accented with blues and golds to distinguish them from the white grass. These structures were believed to have existed since the creation of the Grand Order.

Preacher

**Rowan Bates** was a male Saposhan preacher who lived in the Stilltide settlement on the planet Heilyne. He was once a citizen of the Banith Caba republic before banished from his hometown after an incident in his old age.

## Biography

### Early Life and Career

At a young age, Bates fell into a coma following an accident and stayed bedridden in a hospital for several years. Although several doctors were certain he would never wake up, Bates miraculously regained consciousness by the time he was 12 years old. His family and community attributed his awakening to a gift from the Goddesses of Sunrise and Moonrise, a pair of deities worshipped by the Banithians.

Deeply affected by his childhood experiences and the reaction of his recovery, Bates devoted his life to the religion of the Banithians. He became a preacher, spreading the word of his goddesses and emphasizing the importance of collectivism and community. Bates remained an evangelist and preacher for several decades.

### Banishment

By the time he reached his early 70s, Bates' town had began to shift to a less orthodox view on the Goddesses of Sunrise and Moonrise, thus becoming less fervent believers of the Banithian faith. Bates was upset by the gradual decrease in people who showed up to his sermons. This was also due to Bates' deteriorating mental state, which only worsened with age. One day, a visitor berated Bates as a man who was stuck in the ways of the past. In response, Bates struck the visitor and nearly killed them in the process. The town decided Bates was unfit to continue living in the community because of his perceived instability. Rowan Bates was banished from his hometown and forced to find a new home elsewhere on Heilyne.

Stannuprum

**Stannuprums** were a sentient species native to the planet Auricson. They were easily recognized for their bronze-like appearance. They lived and served under the Auricsonians, and were ranked the lowest in the Auricsonian hierarchy as the Argentumen were ranked higher than them.

## Biology and Appearance

Stannuprums were similar to humans in their basic physical makeup, but with several clear distinctions. For one, the Auricsonians were made entirely out of bronze, their hair having been made up of shiny bronze threads. Their scleras were a glossy brown and their irises often a lighter brown to contrast. Their pupils were diamond-shaped and were colored white. They had the capability to reproduce with humans and most other sentient humanoid species.

Once a Stannuprum reached adulthood, the only thing that stopped them from being immortal was gradual corrosion and rusting similarly to how most other sentient species aged into their elder years. With resources and treatments for corrosion and rusting, the Stannuprums could theoritically live on for thousands of years. With this being said, fertility rates were very high amongst Stannuprums as they commonly did not have the resources to sustain themselves from corrosion, as opposed to the Auricsonians with low fertility rates but better access to corrosion treatments.

Unlike their Auricsonian and Argentuman counterparts, the Stannuprums did not have the ability to transform into monster-like beings at will to any capacity. Despite this lack of a powerful ability, the Stannuprums were physically the strongest out of the three sentient races of Auricson. Many considered them practically impossible to injure, as they were said to have had extraordinary strength and stamina.

## Society and Culture

In Auricsonian society, the Stannuprums were at the very bottom of the social hierarchy. The Stannuprums were subjected to the undesirable blue collar jobs on Auricson, working under powerful mega-corporations owned by the Auricsonians at the top of the hierarchy. Many wealthy Auricsonians saw the Stannuprums almost like a slave class. Because of this, many Stannuprums lived impoverished and indebted lives, working to fund the riches of the Auricsonians.

Argentumen and Stannuprums working on Auricson were tattooed with barcodes as a form of employee ID. Whereas Argentumen were allowed to hide their barcodes underneath their clothes (or request to have their barcodes placed on an otherwise unseen location, like their feet, shoulders, or back), the Stannuprums did not have this luxury. It was not uncommon for a Stannuprum's barcode to be placed on either the front or back of their necks, their hands, any exposed part of the arm, or even the forehead. Each barcode not only worked as an employee ID but also designated which Auricsonian entrepreneur or corporation they worked for.
Rhonai Nexem

**Rhonai Nexem** was a male Cheryllian-Human medic who served the United Cassiopeian Republic. Nexem was a temporary crewmate aboard the *Cala Maria* as an escort to UCR diplomat Orinthia Rose Sonris.

## Biography

### Early Life and Career

In their modest city apartment, Rhonai grew up exposed to Autumnian culture. He specifically remembered a tiny maple tree his mother often tended to in the living room.

By the time he was an adult, Rhonai graduated from medical school and earned a job working at a public hospital on his homeworld.

## Personality and Traits

Sphyrna

**Sphyrna** was an oceanic planet in the Cassiopeia Galaxy that served as a colony of the United Cassiopeian Republic. The planet was the home of the Sphyrnans, a cultural group comprised of predominantly Selachians.

## Description

The planet Sphyrna was a rocky world situated in the inner northwestern reaches of the galactic Outer Core region. The surface of Sphyrna was covered in vast saltwater oceans and islands of rock and sand. The mineral tiburite was endemic to Sphyrna.

### Government

The **Sphyrnan Parliament** served as the centralized planetary government of Sphyrna. This Parliament operated under the jurisdiction of the United Cassiopeian Republic.

## History

### Colonization

Sphyrna was established as a colony sometime during the first half of the 60th century ASA, presumably during the 5930s. As the Faceless Wars ravaged the galaxy at the time, the development of Sphyrna as a suitable colony was slow at first. Once the war had ended, Sphyrna began to grow even faster as a colony. Many Selachians were involved with the colonization of the planet, including a young Uproar, who would later go on to become a member of the local Sphyrnan Parliament and even the Paramount of the United Cassiopeian Republic in its entirety.

## Inhabitants

The main inhabitants of Sphyrna called themselves Sphyrnans. These Sphyrans were predominantly Selachian, although smaller groups of various other sentient species found throughout the galaxy also lived on Sphyrna.

### Notable Figures

Somber Bastion

The **Somber Bastion** was the biggest space station prison facility in Cassiopeia Galaxy, having confined around a hundred thousand prisoners in the Outer Core at any given time. The prison operated under the jurisdiction of the United Cassiopeian Republic, built after the Cassiopeian Civil Wars to imprison war criminals deemed particularly dangerous by the politicians of the time.

The station used a powerful magic-nullifying crystal that prevented magic from being used in any capacity while inside or within close proximity to the station. However, the effects of runestone were still present, and so the prison staff was always equipped with runestone-powered weaponry, armor, and tools.

## History

### Foundations

The Somber Bastion was constructed in the immediate aftermath of the Cassiopeian Civil Wars, following the Cassiopeian Republic's reorganization into the United Cassiopeian Republic. The penal space station's first wave of prisoners were war criminals who were captured by the UCR and underwent trials following the Civil Wars. The first few years of the Somber Bastion's operation merely focused on keeping prisoners locked away without any clear sign of release. However, reforms eventually took place after the public resentment following the Civil Wars had diminished to a certain degree. An amnesty program was established, allowing official pardons for those with political offenses.

## Trivia

* Originally, the Somber Bastion had its very own Sentinel who served as the warden of the station. This was changed after the creative decision to prevent artificially-created hubs of civilization (i.e. space stations) from having Sentinels.
Rime

**Rime** was one of the several rocky moons of the ice giant Graupel, covered in rocky plains and water-ammonia seas. Located in the Cassiopeia Galaxy, the moon of Rime was home to a plethora of fishlike fauna.

## Description

The moon of Rime orbited Graupel, a deep blue ice giant with thin white rings and several other rocky moons. The moons and their planet were part of the Hailstorm System, a planetary system located in the Ice Quartz Sector of the Outer Core. The inhabitants of Hailstorm—another planet in the system overseen by Borealans—made little to no use out of Rime's land and resources.

Rime's atmosphere was thick and toxic to humans and most other sentient humanoid species. The moon's terrain was made up of rocky plains and seas comprised of water-ammonia mixtures. It was in these seas that life in the form of fish and bacteria were able to thrive.

Umbran Space

**Umbran Space** was a region of the Cassiopeia Galaxy in the Central Expanse, dominated by the Antumbrians and the Penumbrians as their vast domain in space. As such, Umbran Space housed their respective capital planets: Antumbria and Penumbria.

## Astrography

Umbran Space was situated in the eastern Central Expanse region of the galaxy, spanning an estimated dozen thousand light years. The region consisted of several millions of habitable worlds, a good number of which were eventually inhabited and colonized by the Antumbrians and Penumbrians, as well as by other small groups of sentient species found throughout the galaxy, such as Humans and Gazetans.

## Society and Culture

Through the influence of the vigorous and battle-loving Antumbrians, as well as of the stern cold and warring Penumbrians, many worlds throughout Umbran Space stressed the importance of strength throughout their societies, both on an individual level and a communal level. Umbran Space inhabitants developed thicker skins than most, able to handle the hardships of the galactic frontier. Some denizens of the Cassiopeia Galaxy considered the inhabitants of Umbran Space to be rather brutish or barbaric.

## History

### Ancient Times

Eons ago, there once existed a species of beastly sentient beings known as the Umbrans, who supposedly lived on the planet Umbra Historia. The Umbrans were said to have been the ancestors of the Penumbrians and Antumbrians. The exact location of Umbra Historia is unknown, only that the world was located somewhere in Umbran Space. There were major disputes on whether or not Penumbria or Antumbria was Umbra Historia, but definitive conclusions were never made.

Russell Piper

**Russell Piper**, né unknown, was a male Borealan Human from the planet Borealis. Through marriage, he was the patriarch of a minor Borealan House, House Piper, as a vassal to House Turing. He was the husband of Georgina Piper and the father of Berniece and Joshua Piper.

Russell's daughter Berniece was a close friend of Amber Lafayette, a member of the Borealan noble house, House Lafayette, and a member of the Dawns. Berniece was also a close friend to Jason Rosewood, a member of House Rosewood, which was a vassal to House Stone.

## Biography

### Early Life

Around the year 5900 ASA, Russell was born in the lower levels of the planet Borealis, a world decorated with castles and deeply rooted in aristocracy.

At some point in his life, Russell married Georgina Piper of House Piper, which was a minor house as a vassal to House Turing (more as a strategic/territorial vassal rather than a vassal that could provide any actual worthwhile support). Through marriage, Russell became the patriarch of the small vassal house. They had two children, Bea and Joshua. Russell's family was one of the few commoner families on Borealis to have a surname.

Russell's family was comprised entirely of musicians, known to brighten up the entire neighborhood around them with pleasant song. Their musicality is what led to Amber Lafayette taking an interest in music herself.

When she was around the age of 19, Amber's parents sent her to home of the Pipers while an investigation took place at the Lafayette residence in the upper levels. It did not take long for Amber to find out her entire noble house was taken prisoner by House Stone and sent to Hailstorm, a penal colony in the Ice Quartz Sector overseen by House Sauler, who unofficially followed the orders of House Stone. Not thinking herself to be safe on Borealis anymore, Amber said her goodbyes to House Piper before fleeing the planet entirely. The family would not be in contact with Amber for almost ten years.

## Personality and Traits

Russell was a Human man with a tanned complexion, green eyes, and black hair in a buzz cut. He had a beard that some nobles considered somewhat messy.

Sinter Scorodite

**Sinter Scorodite** was the male Auricsonian CEO of the Sinter Corporation, a short-lived corporation that operated on the planet Zivra in the Metropolis Sector. Sinter was remembered for failing to deliver his promise of revolutionizing hyperdrive technology.

## Biography

### Early Life

Sometime during the 47th century ASA, Sinter Scorodite was born on the planet Auricson, a urban world of metal people that prided itself in its far-reaching corporations. Wanting to live up to this reputation, Sinter eventually became the Chief Executive Officer for the Sinter Corporation, a company he founded himself.

### Operations on Zivra/The Hyperdrive

Sinter Corporation eventually began operating on the planet Zivra, a colony of the Cassiopeian Republic with cities built above raging oceans. His company hired many Zivrans through its short-lived history.

In the year 4700 ASA, Sinter announced on the Runestone Network that he and his company were developing hyperdrive technology that would revolutionize space travel. Scorodite advertised this plan as "technology that [would] change the universe". Unbeknownst to the general public, Sinter Corporation failed to actually deliver on this promise. Their recreation of the hyperdrive technology did not work any more efficient than standard hyperdrive technology of the time. Infact, many engineers working under Scorodite noted that the hyperdrive technology they were developing was worse than their modern technology.

#### Fleeing Scrutiny/The Destruction of Zivra

Scorodite was aware that his hyperdrive technology was not up to the high standards he presented to the general public. To flee scrutiny, Scorodite had his Ordovician secretary Granele Ledot prepare tickets and luggage for a one-way trip off-planet. Luckily for him, Scorodite left just days before the planet Zivra was destroyed and abandoned.

The cities of Zivra suffered through much damage from violent tidal events around this time. Eventually, a planet-wide evacuation was in order, and so Scorodite never went through with presenting his flawed hyperdrive technology. Sinter Corporation had to shut down its operations on Zivra because of these natural disasters. Since Sinter Scorodite fled to the Holiday Worlds before the planet-wide evacuation, he also fled scrutiny for never delivering on his promise to revolutionize space travel.

## Personality and Traits

Sinter Scorodite was an Auricsonian man, and as such had golden hair, golden eyes, and golden skin.

Scorodite was an inexperienced yet arrogant businessman who was excessively proud of himself. Like many wealthy Auricsonians, Scorodite's top one priority was self interest.

## Notes and References

1. ↑ Sinter Scorodite was already dead by the year 5957 ASA, so he must have died before this year.

Xiros Sector

The **Xiros Sector** was a region of the Cassiopeia Galaxy located within the Central Expanse. The sector was home to numerous independent worlds, such as Makhai, as well as worlds that served as colonies of the United Cassiopeian Republic, such as Drillania. A good number of the worlds in the Xiros Sector were known to have had arid climates. This included the planet Nabaro, the homeworld of the Nabar species.

## Astrography

The Xiros Sector was situated in the eastern Central Expanse region of the galaxy, spanning less than an estimated dozen thousand light years. The region consisted of several millions of habitable worlds, a good number of which were eventually inhabited and colonized.

The region was bordered by the Awkatin Sector to the north, the Lanh Sector to the northeast, the Pieris Sector to the south, and the Sokhong Sector and Human Worlds to the west.
Ruccio Bassán

**Ruccio Bassán** was a male Praeliorian Elite who served the Praeliorian Empire. Bassán was arrested along with many others for colluding with Dremirians, their sympathizers, and other detractors of the Empire.

## Biography

### A Secret Network

An Elite officer of the Praeliorian Empire, Ruccio Bassán used his position in the imperial authority to help those who were persecuted by the Empire, be it for being Dremirian or for going against the Empire. In the latter half of the year 5957 ASA, Ruccio and the secret network of rebels and refugees he was a part of based themselves in an unassuming warehouse in Licentia, a city on the imperial capital planet Praelior.

Unfortunately, Bassán, his associates, and the people they were helping in Licentia were discovered by Elite Inquisitors Shock Sattackite and Passion Sternsaphira, alongside their ward Jazzilia Bornitas and Elite Carmine Sanguin. One Dremirian was slain in the arrest. Bassán was forced to watch everyone he worked with ushered into imperial transport shuttles, all in a deliberate attempt by the Inquisitors to demoralize him. As he was the last one to be moved into the arrest shuttles, Bassán made his thoughts known to the Inquisitors, declaring the Empire's actions against the Dremirians unsustainable.

## Personality and Traits

Ruccio was a Praeliorian man and, as such, had completely white skin, white hair, and white eyes devoid of any visible pupils or irises. As an Elite, Ruccio decorated his face with beige-colored face paint, matching the color of his blood.

While the pressures of working within a secret, illegal network were assuredly a heavy responsibility for Bassán, he tried his best to carry the weight of people's hopes for a better future outside of the Praeliorian Empire. He tried his best to put on a brave face, even when his nerves reasonably got the better of him. While he understood that fighting the Praeliorian Empire was likely a futile pursuit, he passionately believed in fighting the corrupt, shaky foundations of the Empire.

## Trivia

* Ruccio derives his name from the Italian mineralogist Ferruccio Zambonini, who named the mineral bassanite, which is what Ruccio's surname is derived from.
September Bridges

**September Bridges** was a Gazetan colonist and architect who helped establish a United Cassiopeian Republic colonial presence on the planet Gaeron. Bridges took part in establishing the Lonhe colony after becoming stranded on Gaeron alongside three other colonists, whom she worked closely with: Alyssa Sanidine Orchard, Selmara Beltran, and Dalila Vaascosa.

## Biography

### Early Life and Career

September Bridges was born in the year 5570 ASA. September was always known to be rather intelligent as a child, and was most often the smartest in their friend circles. She had a keen eye for mathematics that translated well when she began to study architecture at the Elvia Turing Institute of Technology on the moon Epsilopeia. She graduated with flying colors and went on to work as an architect, taking on contracts from various different organizations and polities.

She eventually began working full-time with the United Cassiopeian Republic, which she considered the biggest commonwealth of worlds in the Cassiopeia Galaxy.

### Crash-landing on Gaeron

In the year 5600 ASA when they were 30 in age, September enlisted herself as an architect for the UCR's mission to establish a colonial presence on the planet Kavriisha. While she recognized that the UCR's goal was to eventually have Kavriisha join the UCR, September thought a more realistic goal would simply be forming an alliance and positive relations with the Kavriishan natives. On the ride to Kavriisha aboard a UCR transport freighter, captained by Firia Lonhe, September acquainted themself with just a few out of the less-than-a-hundred passengers aboard the ship: Captain Firia Lonhe herself, the jeweler Alyssa S. Orchard, the ex-convict Selmara Beltran, and the construction worker Jacob Gregory-Heap.

## Personality and Traits

September was a Gazetan with grey skin, red-colored eyes, and coily black hair with red highlights. September was referred to by others and by herself with 'she' and 'they' pronouns.

Always known to be an intelligent kid, September had a mathematically and logistically-based mind which worked perfectly with their profession as an architect. They were often most comfortable at organizing plans and making blueprints. A practical yet sometimes wishful thinker, September had to stop herself from deviating from what she considered to unrealistic or too idealistic, when looking at dire situations. They often tried their best to keep a level-head when met with troubling circumstances. They were willing to put in extraordinary amounts of work for the sake of their colony, having helped as an architect and almost as a leader everyday.

September enjoyed keeping a record of their day-to-day life, so that the information and history would never be lost. During her time on Gaeron, she frequently typed out log entries that recorded information about events and on-goings with the Lonhe settlement.

## Skills and Abilities

As an architect, September was extremely skilled and gifted in designing buildings and often supervised the construction of their buildings. She was also skilled at strategizing, as a result.
Uplarian System

The **Uplarian System** was a planetary system located within the inner southeastern Outer Core region of the Cassiopeia Galaxy, specifially within the Metropolis Sector. The system was home to a single star and at least two planetary orbits: Uplarias and Galatea. The United Cassiopeian Republic held jurisdiction over the planetary system, with both Uplarias and Galatea serving as UCR colonies.

Uplarias was an arid world of salt flats, famous for its innovative and enormous domed cities. These massive and technologically-advanced cities housed around ten billion people on the planet in total. Uplarias served as the capital world of the Uplarian System.

Galatea was a crystal planet that also housed domed cities, inspired by the cities of its sister planet Uplarias. The planet was colonized by the UCR as a safe haven for Dremirians escaping persecution from the Praeliorian Empire during the Era of Diamond Dust. The planet housed over a hundred million people, both Dremirians and other sentient species.
