## Biography

### Early Life and Career

In 5313 ASA, Conrad Gazania was born on the planet Cassiopeia Prime, the galactic capital of the Cassiopeian Republic. Raised in the lower-class levels of the city planet, Conrad always aspired to be successful in life, both as a person and monetarily. He made it a goal for himself to truly make it in the Cassiopeia Galaxy as a prosperous businessman, which was a mindset he strongly kept onto, even well into his adulthood.

Starting out in his late teens and continuing throughout the course of his adulthood, Conrad Gazania worked many different odd jobs to make ends meet. On the side, he founded several questionable start-ups which all ended in failures, with consideration to the authenticity (or lack thereof) of his products. Having dabbled in so many different trades, Gazania learned the ins and outs on how to make a quick buck, although he gained a reputation as a conman as a result.

## Personality and Traits

Conrad was a Vundorian man and, as such, had skin patterned and colored burgundy, yellow, and white. He had violet-colored eyes with yellow-colored sclera, and had maroon-colored hair that he often kept rather short. He was known to have been broad-shouldered and around 5'10" in height for most of his adulthood.

As an entrepreneur, Conrad always tried (sometimes with success) coming up with a plethora of get-rich-quick ideas that would allow him to achieve his dreams of becoming wealthy and living luxuriously. To him, it didn't matter if the business pitches didn't entirely make sense, or even if they didn't make sense at all, so long as he was able to make money off of said ideas. While many considered his efforts as a businessman to be rather unproductive, Conrad always had a strong vigor within his heart that eventually worked out for him, in the end.

With this established, Conrad had a strong level of confidence, yet also knew when to run from a situation that was too far out of his control. Even if he had an odd way of showing it, Conrad cared much for his close friends of the *Golden Star* crew and would more often than not try to protect them from danger. Despite his questionable business practices, Conrad had his street smarts, which his teammates and friends valued.

## Skills and Abilities

Growing up in the lower levels of Cassiopeia Prime taught Conrad a great deal of self-defense that kept him safe in the shadier parts of the city districts. He was skilled with a sidearm and often used the nearest blunt weapon to the best of his ability, making him a resourceful member of the crew of the *Golden Star*.
Common

**Common** was the most prevalent language spoken by the inhabitants of the Cassiopeia Galaxy. The language was spoken by various sentient species, including—but not limited to—humans, Aetherians, Ologans, and the Nidae. Many dialects and accents existed in the Common language and could be found around all different parts of the galaxy.

Settlers from the Faraway Galaxy were known to be quite perplexed to hear their language being spoken as the vernacular of an entirely different galaxy from their own. The reason for such a coincidence to occur was never truly discovered, but religious groups like the Lights of the Overseer attributed this to the divine will of the Overseer.
Celadon Corner

**Celadon Corner** was a venue on Solitude Plaza, a space station operated by the privateer Tiberius Stede. The venue was specifically catered towards the adolescent residents of the space station, taking the form of a teen lounge and advertised as a place to hang out with friends. The business was opened in the latter half of the year 5957 ASA.

The entire lounge was decorated in a sleek and minimalistic fashion, with comfortable and stylish furniture in the form of booths and couches, complete with walls painted the color of celadon green. At Celadon Corner, fresh drinks and snacks were served, both hot and cold. Desserts were also served at a personalized ice cream bar, which made the bar a particularly popular attraction at the lounge. State-of-the-art holographic screens were also accessible within the lounge, able to display movies and play video games on.

Denizens of the Plaza often wondered how much money Tiberius Stede had to invest into the lounge for such high-quality goods and services to be operated at a place like Solitude Plaza, which wasn't particularly known for luxury.

It was at this teen lounge where Rhythm, Remedy, and Randall Magna—three young crewmates aboard the *Berdema Nova*—met new friends, including Fromo Lark, Ubi Blub, Zinari Ya, Pebi Piara, and several others.

Black in color, Eriksizium was said to be rather easy to build with and was used to make the various black square pyramids found all throughout Heyrn and Heyrnese Space.

Most if not all Eriksizium structures were decorated and lined with runestone powder so that the buildings themselves would be good conductors of magic, as well as granting easy access to light and heat within the buildings; this method of runestone incorporation was formulated by a Heyrnese architect and scholar named Revision.

Eriksizium was named after Eriksiz Rondeau, an ancient mineralogist that worked with the Heyrnese people on many occasions throughout ancient history.

The Dreamer Worlds also contained several planets never associated with the Dremirian Alliance, such as the planet Zajac, an isolated world which was mostly inhabited by human settlers.

The planet Laishi was located just within a dozen parsecs from Zajac. While Laishi was established as a colony of the United Cassiopeian Republic, it was the Dremirian Council that prompted the UCR to establish Laishi as a safe-haven for Dremirians in the Dreamer Worlds.

CSL was primarily based on the spoken language of Common and was standardized throughout the galaxy by the Cassiopeian Republic.

With the variety of different sentient species that lived within the Cassiopeia Galaxy, CSL was made to accommodate everyone who could not speak Common due to disabilities or biological differences, including those with hands or vocal chords built differently from that of humans and most other sentient humanoid species.

Doalum

**Doalum** was a terrestrial planet in the Cassiopeia Galaxy, covered in frozen oceans and ice sheets. Doalum was the second planet in the Octus System and was the home of a cultural group called the Doalumites, who made their living through fishing.

## Description

The planet Doalum was a rocky world located at the northeastern edge of the Lanh Sector, which itself was situated in the eastern galactic Central Expanse region. The planet orbited a single yellow star and had no moons, sharing its planetary system—the Octus System—with the planet Octus. Doalum was the second planet in its system.

The cold surface of Doalum was completely covered in vast ice sheets and gargantuan oceans covered by a thick sheet of water ice. The water and ice of Doalum took on a distinct turquoise color. Taigas occasionally dotted the lands, giving some semblance of life to the planet with boreal forestry. It was rumored that these taigas were remnants of a time when Doalum was once a much warmer world.

### Government

The **Radenthein Collective** was a civil union that served as the only planetary government on Doalum. This government presided over a single settlement on Doalum that housed tens of thousands of people. The Collective had trade connections with the different political factions of Octus.

## History

### Colonization

Sometime during the early 59th century ASA, Doalum was colonized by a group of settlers hoping to establish a new home and a successful fishing industry. Over many decades, Doalum's population would grow into the thousands.

## Inhabitants

The main inhabitants of Doalum referred to themselves as **Doalumites**. This Doalumite population was comprised of a number of different sentient species found throughout the galaxy, including Humans and Autumnians. The Doalumites were collectivists who greatly valued the betterment of the community over individual interests. They were particularly accepting of child labor, believing the practice to be a way to integrate children into society early and to build character. The Doalumites supported themselves through the fishing industry, trading with nearby worlds like Octus.

### Notable Figures

* **Scilla'pri Ashley** - an Autumnian constable and refugee who left Doalum and found a home in Faulkner Keep on Octus.
* **Jakob Lamp** - a Gazetan philosopher and scavenger who failed to preach his doctrine.
* **Olivia Tanantina** - a Human refugee who stowed away on a ship to Octus, having found a home in Faulkner Keep.

## Trivia

* Doalum is based off of a randomly-generated refugee faction from the sandbox video game *RimWorld*. The name of the planet's government was derived from a randomly-generated civil outlander union faction called the "Amalgamation of Hein".
Cassiopeian Civil Wars

## Combatants

**Cassiopeian Republic*** Borealan Aristocracy
* Great Minds of Ologi

**Federation of Cassiopeian Star Systems**
**Will of Cassiopeia**

## Commanders

* Paramount Palus Dier

* Grand Premier Malis Streit
* General Screech

* Sentinel Arden Brenna

The **Cassiopeian Civil Wars** (5347 - 5357 ASA), simply referred to as the **Civil Wars**, were a major, ten-year armed conflict fought primarily between the Cassiopeian Republic and the Federation of Cassiopeian Star Systems. The war sparked when worlds under Republic territory seceded and came together to form their own galactic separatist government. The war brought to light the deeply-rooted corruption within the upper echelons of the Cassiopeian Republic.

A third side known as the Will of Cassiopeia also resisted the Republic, but refused to ally themselves with the Federation because of the secessionist polity's own brand of internal corruption and misdeeds.

During the war, an Auricsonian man named Palus Dier served as Paramount of the Cassiopeian Republic, while a Kaiseranian Human man named Malis Streit served as Grand Premier of the Federation of Cassiopeian Star Systems. Sentinel Arden Brenna of Cassiopeia Prime led the Will of Cassiopeia as the resistance movement's leader.

## Prelude

### Origins of the Federation

During the Noir Era, the corporations and superpowers of the Gold Standard Sector, particularly those from Auricson Space, began to exercise its reach over the branches of the Cassiopeian Republic. When Auricsonian entrepreneur Palus Dier was elected as Paramount, many members of the Cassiopeian Senate denounced the amplified state of corporatism within the Cassiopeian Republic. This was enough for several worlds once represented within the Cassiopeian Senate to take drastic measures.

Ultimately, the planet of Kaiseran was the first of many to secede from the Republic and declared itself a sovereign world. Other worlds followed Kaiseran's example and eventually came together to form the Federation of Cassiopeian Star Systems.

## The Ten-year War

The first battle sparked near the end of the year 5347 ASA.

Celena

**Celena**, affectionately nicknamed **Cecie**, was a female Dremirian from the planet Kosmima who was once captured by the Praeliorian Empire and later rescued from imperial execution by former Praeliorian Elite Goshe Barrus. Celena and Barrus found safety on the hidden planet Harmonia, where Morna Aznaré led the Harmonian Separatists.

## Biography

### Early Life

Around the year 5945 ASA, Celena was born on the planet Kosmima, a Dreamer World covered in clear lakes and crystal plains. She was born with a deformity that gave her both the physique and mind of a child, as a result of emerging from her molten crystal well earlier than most. As Dremirians did not age like Humans and most other sentient humanoid species, Celena would always remain in the body and mind of a child throughout the duration of her life.

### Capture and Rescue

One day, Celena was captured by imperial Praeliorians during a raid on her settlement. She was taken to the planet Praelior, the glittering capital of the Praeliorian Empire, where she was to be placed under the servitude of a high-ranking imperial officer. It wasn't long before her captors deemed her as useless because of her deformity and decided that she would be executed and ground to dust.

Goshe Barrus, an imperial Elite, stopped Celena's execution from coming to pass. The decision to rescue Celena on Goshe's part was rather impulsive, as Goshe did not have enough time to properly decide and weigh the consequences of her actions. Not able to let Celena die, Goshe fled from the Empire with Celena by her side, marking her as a traitor of the Empire. The punishment for such treason was death, but Goshe made many efforts to ensure that she and Celena were never to be found.

Having safely found a home on Harmonia, Celena continued to live a comfortable life with other like-minded Dremirians and Praeliorians. She came to view Goshe as somewhat of a maternal figure for rescuing her.

## Personality and Traits

Celena was a young Dremirian girl with periwinkle blue skin, white eyes, and hair made of crystal threads colored with various light blues and lavenders. Celena was born with a deformity that gave her the physique and mind of a child.

Having experienced rather traumatic life experiences, from capture to threats of execution, Celena was often slow to trust others. Her apprehension towards strangers would become more moderate the longer she stayed within the safety of Harmonia. Celena was also known to be a little bratty, prone to rude remarks towards strangers she disliked. Despite this apparent bitterness, Celena was also an extremely grateful and sentimental person. She was afraid of losing people and things that gave her a sense of security, just as most children were. She viewed Goshe as a sort of mother figure and often stuck by her side.

## Trivia

* Celena was originally named Moonstone as a former *Steven Universe* fan character.
	+ To differentiate her from another character named Moon, Celena was given the in-universe nickname "Moonie" as a *Steven Universe* fan character.
* Celena's design takes inspiration from the character Chibiusa from the *Sailor Moon* franchise.
Cassiopeian Calendar

The **Cassiopeian Calendar** system was the standard measurement of time in the Cassiopeia Galaxy. A year on the calendar was marked by 365 days on the moon of Epsilopeia, the first capital of the Cassiopeian Republic—which established the calendar system—and later its successor government, the United Cassiopeian Republic.

The Siege of Aethra was used as a reference epoch, or year 0, in this calendar system. **BSA** refers to "Before the Siege of Aethra" whereas **ASA** refers to "After the Siege of Aethra". Alternatively, BSA and ASA can also refer to "Before/After the Stars Aligned", in reference to the Astral Premonition that happened within the same day as the Siege of Aethra.
