Humanity once stood at the edge of the godhood, commanding vast wealth and powerful technologies that would allow them to conquer the stars and planets far
beyond Earth. After a brilliant era of colonization and advancements, this particular sector of space had been once a powerful resource hub. Yet, this golden age for
mankind would shatter, and plunge humanity into darkness. As the ages passed, the cities and technologies of old rusted and decayed as the old ways were abandoned for that of tribes and squalor. Earth and the Empire that arose from humanity became whispers of vague myths, many of whom lost to the mists of time now. For nearly 6,000 years after the collapse humanity has lain in a new Dark Age, now ignorant of their pasts and of what their legacy truly is. But now comes a new dawn for
mankind, a second chance to reach out and claim the reins of destiny once more and set out among the stars to rebuild and conquer. An era of reclamation has begun, as mankind begins to once more re-discover the old ways and rebuild and leave the terrestrial confines that has chained mankind for so long once more. But humanity
is not alone, for other beings have alsorisen and have begun their ascent to the stars beyond their worlds. And as you venture out into this cold, indifferent universe, far
from the safe confines of your home planet, you will face great challenges and hardships, but survival is built through iron will and perseverance. Can your people
survive in these Stellar Frontiers? Only time will tell.

Faction Name: Kariit Outcasts
Faction Type: Scavenging Nomads & Pirates
Faction Leader/Leadership:
Fleet Admiral Shazraya Red-Eye
https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/1829/7d064cf2-0e30-4be8-a20a-92ffc0d9fc76/KO Leader Shazraya.png
Shazraya Red-Eye is the current de-facto leader of the Fleet Council- an alliance of various Kariiti captains, warlords and other spaceborne outcasts- and in turn leader of the Kariit Outcasts traversing through space in search for a new planet to settle.
Like all Kariiti before her Shazraya earned her rank by beating, stabbing, shooting and manipulating her opponents. To control a band of greedy renegades there needs to be a leader willing to do what needs to be done in order to preserve the little structure they have.
Faction Demonym(s): Kariit, Kariiti, Kariitian
Faction Background:
Once a tribal species living on the cold planet of Kertanis, the Kariit were rapidly uplifted after an alien vessel crashed on their world. Struggles for food and territory quickly became memories of the past as rivalling tribes (and their respective warlords) fought to seize the powerful technology and weapons inside the ship.
After decades of nothing but wars tribes slowly turned into kingdoms, decades later these kingdoms turned into nations. Despie their bloody past the Kariit refused to accept that greater power beckoned for greater responsibility and as such they unleashed their deadliest conflict yet. After the deaths of millions the two remaining states isolated themselves.
Five hundred years later they would exchange fire once more. This time in space. Realizing the hidden resources and potential wealth which existed within the massive asteroid belt orbiting Kertanis the Kariit went to war once again. Ground forces were replaced by orbital strike craft, armored vehicles were replaced by frigates bristling with weaponry and natural resources were replaced by untapped gifts of the stars.
Eventually the Kariit's thirst for wealth and power would be their downfall. After unleashing devastating superweapons a mere fraction of the original population remained. Determined to stop the evil cycle of brutal wars which had plagued their history for thousands of years the Kariit set to disarm themselves and start anew.
Accussed of being weak a large group of renegades split off from the reformed Kariiti government and turned to the stars. Using whatever tech they could scrounge up the Kariit Outcast fleet supercharged their ships and left the system. They would eventually spend years in space, stopping only momentarily at times to look for resources and treasure or to kill a weak captain and its rogue vessel.
Now the fleet has arrived in a new sector. Before they had even left the safety of their hyperwarp jump the sensors had observed numerous signals related to old, dormant, technology.
Perhaps the fleet have finally found its new home?

Faction Name: Arktech Coalition (Humans)
Faction Type: Theocratic Military Junta
Faction Leader/Leadership: Lead by a council of five Arktech Exarchs who strive to collect and hoard as much Pre-Collapse technology as possible, believing that those who lead Humanity were on the brink of ascending into a new form. These Exarchs claim that it is the right of Humanity, though more specifically the Arktech Coalition, to follow its brave Exarchs to immortality and rulership over the stars. They will accomplish this by any means necessary, and those who refuse to follow will be left in the dust while those in the way will be crushed.
Faction Demonym(s): Arken(s), Ravosian(s), Humans
Faction Background: Life was never easy for the humans of Ravos Prime after the collapse. A world of rugged badlands broken up by sparse plains. Once an old industrial colony, producing a great many things for Humanity's ancient and great Empire; but that was long ago, and none now can remember what that original landscape of endless factories was like. In the year AC6000, the few humans still left on Ravos Prime lived in scattered states of tribalism across the world, clinging on to what little they had. War was common, as resources were scarce. When a tribe needed something, it took it from those who had it. This was the way of things, and the only thing they knew was that they must fight for everything that they needed. Things stayed this way for centuries, until a small tribe uncovered a small ruin, still intact, deep underground. Perhaps an old lab, an armory, or something else; the history is fuzzy to the Arkens. What is known was that they found old documents, technology, hard drives. Knowledge. Upon all of this was labelled 'Arktech Labs,' and the tribe who found it claimed it as their new title. The brightest minds set to work, trying to recreate the remnants of Humanity's former glory. Though the technology they had was more than they'd had in centuries, it was still nothing but a shadow of what some of the texts they found told of. Five of the top researchers in charge of recreating this technology, however, believed that this technology was more than just a recreation of the past, but was the key to their ascension, their climb to godhood. They labored in secret to spread the word to even the farthest of tribes that these things were gifts from their ancestors, that they would soon rise up and take their place as Gods. Gathering great hosts to their command, they swept across the world, unifying all under the title of the Arktech Coalition, proclaiming that they, as the Exarchs, would guide all of Ravos to glory and godhood. Though there was a long period of darkness after this unification, eventually the later Exarchs completed reconstructing the last and most advanced piece of technology they found in the vault, a basic FTL drive. With this, the current Exarchs promised, the Arktech Coalition would fill the heavens, and scour every last piece of Pre-Collapse technology, and use it to thrust them and their followers into a new age.
LONG LIVE THE EXARCHS, HUMANITY WILL ARISE ANEW AS GODS AND KINGS

Faction Name: Kalen Commonwealth
Faction Type: Unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy
Faction Leadership: King Henri (head of state), Chancellor
Tylim Kartiss (head of government), Council of the People / Union of Lords
(Legislative)
Faction Demonym: Kalen, Kalens (plural)
Faction Background:
The large moon now known as Kal was once a thriving
metropolis in the empire of old. It wasn’t a particularly important or rich colony
but it was a hub of activity nonetheless. When the collapse came it broke
something fundamental to the culture of the residents. Soon lines were drawn
into the sand and those in power grew fearful and uncertain. It is unclear who
pulled the trigger first, but at some point those great powers of old annihilated
almost everyone. The first millennia after the war, the world was uninhabited. Slowly,
those that were in great vaults crawled out and began to rebuild. Thousands of
dark years proceeded as the previous society left almost no trace to rebuild
from.
The landscape was almost pristine, having
recovered from a nuclear apocalypse quite well. The only surviving ruins were deep
underground. Much of society had to rebuild and relearn lost technologies. Over
thousands of years primitive communities turned into tribes which then turned
into kingdoms. As technology and knowledge spread among the populace, the
people demanded more control of their own governments. A series of revolts spawned
that toppled the Kings and Queens of the worlds. An era of republics grew that
culminated in a few superpowers. These nation states grew hostile as relations
became strained for various reasons. Another nuclear exchange occurred, wiping
an entire continent nearly clean and decimating the second. On the former
continent, the people retreated in fear and once again lords and kings rose
from the ashes. Society was not wiped out, and it remembered how the republics
had failed. Comfort was sought that lifelong rulers would lead to prosperity. The second continent fared much better and
retained its republican ideals. A large kingdom of ash grew in the former wasteland
and rebounded quickly. Two distinct ideologies replaced those of old. The Kalen
Kingdom grew strong as the former wasteland gave their people resolve and
focus. A single ruler with a mandate from the Divine would lead them to prosperity.
Across the world, a council of elected representatives served the will of their
people. The two great powers achieved simple spaceflight and a new crisis
emerged. A war began, but unlike the wars of history, this war shied away from
the power of the atom in fear that it would destroy them all. 25 long years
later the war became stagnant as both sides were not willing to back down. King
Jamys met with President Jenal in secret and after much deliberation a peace
was struck. Order was restored and the two powers resumed the exploration of
space. Over time, the citizens of both began to see eye to eye. Those in the
republic respected and valued the national unity and identity of the Kalen
Kingdom. Those in the kingdom respected the flexibility granted from the democratic
nature of the republican government. Slowly, over decades, reforms were put
into place and the two superpowers became one. The Kalen Commonwealth was born.
The best of both nations would serve to see the Kalens far into the stars.
Peaceful exploration and exploitation of the solar system resumed. A century
later, a deep survey team on one of the outer planets uncovered a wrecked ship.
This answered a long unanswered question: the Kalens knew they were not alone
in the universe. Researchers poured over the vessel and a lot was learned. A functioning
Warp Engine was developed and now the K. E. F. Wayfinder has just left the
orbital shipyard as the first FTL equipped vessel, ready to search the stars
for answers and explore new worlds for the good of the Kalen people.

Faction Name: The Republic
Faction Type: Parliamentary Republic
Faction Leader/Leadership: Fynn Colton [Current Serving Prime Minister]
Faction Demonym(s): Republicans
Faction Background: The Republic was once one of the great economic and industrial powerhouses of the old galaxy. Those days ended when a catastrophic meteor collided with their home planet of Fortrum unexpectedly. Having been the nerve center of The Republic's colonization efforts and primary exporter of FTL technology, the destruction of Fortrum caused The Republic's entire colony network to collapse through either civil unrest, starvation or similar natural disasters.
Arya was fairly isolated compared to the rest of the colonies, which worked in it's favor. Due to their isolation they were afforded a number of luxuries and other capabilities that were not present in other colonies. As such the population were able to avoid total extinction.
Over the centuries The Republic was able to rediscover and even improve upon many technologies that were lost to them during the cut-off, such as FTL which would allow them to re-take their home system and spread The Republic across the galaxy once again.
The Republic of old had one of the largest known military's, much of which was lost or heavily damaged during the collision and subsequent chaos. However due to their isolation Arya was provided with a larger defensive capability than a typical colony in order to protect against the occasional raiders or pirates known to roam deep space. Much of the equipment used by The Republic military today is almost identical to what was used back then due to a limited focus on military research.
Society as a whole remains largely unchanged over the years with a heavy emphasis on scientific progress and expansion with scientists and the Prime Minister being held in the highest regard by the people. At a civilian level, menial jobs make up the bulk of the workforce with the option to train and specialize in a scientific field of their choice, assuming they qualify. The inhabitants of Arya have no central religion as it was outlawed in the old Republic, another tradition that was carried over throughout the years.

The fire crackled and its light illuminated two figures in the lone wilderness. A skewer of meat roasted in the flames as they sat still, watching their fruitful hunt cook before them. The two moons radiated in their full glory above them, decorating the night sky along with many thousands of stars painting the canvas of the heavens. For the two of them this was a quiet night, the sky had glowed red on the dusk to predict a peaceful morrow. The boy looked up, observing the sky as he had done so for many moons. Always thinking and wondering of what was there. If *anything* was there. He turned to his father, a rugged man with many scars and many moons of experience. The man turned his head, noticing the boy's movements and anticipated a question.
"Father?"
"Yes boy?"
"Can you tell me the story of our ancestors?"
"You mean of our tribe?"
"No... I mean..."
The father shifted uncomfortably in his place. He knew of what the boy spoke, though he never was inclined to share it. "It is not a happy story like the ones your mother used to tell you..." he began, before conceding. "Very well. Listen closely then."
He grabbed a small "It all began on an oasis within the cosmos, a verdant palace of life known as... 'Gaia'".
