Oxlier is known as the animal lord by most, he is the overseer of all animal life, the balance between predator and prey. Oxlier played a vital role in the creation of the Animalkin and Insectkin races aswell as the placement of them in the cosmos.

Oxlier has been seen in many forms, though his true form is an meld of animal and insect, and few have seen this form.

Oxlier is worshiped in many ways from culture to culture, in most tribal or native cultures Oxlier heads notice to those who honor the beast and there relationship with nature, understanding that no one needs more then they can consume or require for a task. Any cultures that create a bond and mutual relationship between beast and sentients, like the use of hounds, horse and flying beast, is in the graces of Oxlier. Imperial culture allows open worship of Oxlier as he is a lessor god of Renova, though this is more common in rural and agricultural areas within the Empire.

Many of those that follow or worship Oxlier will offer prayer or offerings to further there respect and understanding that the use of beasts or the need in meat is balance to be achieved and not to allow an indulgence in consumption.

The Imperial cultures of the Central plains have learned to find a balance in large scale beast farming that provides millions of tons of meat to the territory of the Empire and excepted by Oxlier. There is a festival called Brumadadon at the end of each summer that lasts for 7 days during this week that honors Oxlier as well as the other lessor god of Revova. Having a whole day given to each good, Oxliers day is held to honor the beast that fell to give the Empire the meat to feed and the relationship between the animals that help move the Empire forward. On this day during the festival, Animal based games are played for entertainment, activities like beast riding sports and Animal pulls as well as animal show presentations.

Imperial Timeline

Pre 1st Age

Pre Circa 4,000,000,000 BA: (Before Awakening)

The Creator god is Nohesis also know as "The Creator", or "The Wheel of time". It is not know how Nohesis came to be but Nohesis is the first real power that shows anywhere in the known universes. Nohesis is the true power of all creation. Nohesis awoke in its existence lying in a fetal position, gestating in a Pool of Magical energy, as he came to be he stood from the Pool of magic energy, and found himself standing with his head and torso in the Cosmos a Material plane where the laws of Physics allowed for the creation of ecological material life and his Legs Submerges in a endless Pool of Churning Arcanic powers, now knows as the Astreal sea. It was at this moment Nohesis saw its purpose, it then began the creation of exsistance within material plane.

Nohesis Creates a great landmass that he set afloat the Astreal sea, this will become to be known as Terrahime or the Material Anchor. In the earliest days, Terrahime was a mess, at first Nohesis struggled with balance. Nohesis realized life could not be without balance, at first Terrahime was two dark so Nohesis attempts to crate a source of light but failed in his first attempts at a light source he then discarded this failed project in to the Cosmos. This failed project will become one of the first planets, now refered to as Luna.

Nohesis then created the great light called Luminus a burning ball of fire to light and warm Terrahime. this worked but life needs balance so Nohesis flicks Luminus and sets in a cycle or revolution around Terrahime dipping into the the astreal sea for an equal time as it was aloft. Though this cycle eventually wained and the seasonal balance became off, causing issues in the balance of life, so Nohesis created Noctus a slightly ambient lit object the would set in the rotation with Luminus allowing the seasons to set in a perpetual balance, the only problem is that Luminus and Noctus will pass behind the failed "Luna", this causes a eclipse twice a day, once during the day and once at night.

Nohesis Watched his creation and tweaked the balances of it until it was a perfect balance of ecological life, during this time Nohesis tested different life on Terrahime. Tarrahime goes through many different Biologies, Terrahime seeing times of little to no daylight or night, times of ice, intense heat, extremly high or almost empty oceans, until Nohesis finds a perfect balance

Now that Terrahime was well balanced with Life, Death, Destruction, Rebirth, Order and Chaos, Nohesis became board with this, He then wanted to create sentient life. but he knew that if he did this, life would need higher powers to help keep the balance and even with Nohesises power they would need help

Nohesis poured much of his power in to weaving the creation of his Greater Gods, these beings created from portions of Nohesises direct power, he created the Greater goods each with its own focus of power in the balance. Now that Nohesis has his Gods and a balance he and then start to weave all kinds of life. Nohesis starts to Create the Planets and set them afloat in the Cosmos. Nohesis allowed his God to create lessor forms of life in the Material plane. over the mellenia Nohesis and his gods created Many Forms of life but not that of sentient life.

Circa 500,000,000 BA: When Nohesis started the creation of the Sentient races, Nohesis pulls power of life he poured into the Greater God Animus to create the Drcarians, a savage and keen hunter species, a Species of dragon like humonoids, that embodies pure primal instinct and Destruction, and then he made the Suemra, the Suemra are a similar race but the balance to the Drucarians, the Suemra had a deep understanding of the balance that is required in the universe. They also had a very firm grasp on the Arcane and both an understanding of the material and Astral planes.

Circa 350,000,000 BA: After the Suemra and the Drucarians, Nohesis created some other races on Terra, like Humans, Orcs, Goblins and Elves. Most of these races where scattered in tribes a crossed Terra, not ever having the true leadership or Intelligence to unite. The Elves being innate wielders of the Arcane with a connection to the Astral sea and the most civilized of the Sentient races, where taken in by the Suemra and taught about the Astral Sea and the *Arcane powers, and the importance in Arcanium crystal is to its manipulations, even how to travel great distances, even traverse to other realms using special Portals connecting different places within the Astral sea and the Cosmos, they created many of these Portals all a crossed the material realm, They called these gates Astral Gates.

Circa 250,000,000 BA: It was at this point Nohesis has grown comfortable with his creations both the Greater gods and the Sentient races. He then granted the Greater Gods The ability to create sentient life on there own and with it many other races where created Like The Tecknokiians, Xenarian, Trollkin, Arborians, Feyfolk, Centaur and all the Animalkin races, sometime after this Nohesis left what he created and delved deep into the Cosmos and left the balance to his greater gods, but it was not long until the balance began to wane and Nohesis's gods began to show there powers to the creatures of the universe.

Circa 1,000,000 BA: The Dracarians and the Suemra ruled over most of Terra and the realms and fought one another to a bitter end where history is vague, but they fought until both sides where all but destroyed. Then the Dracarians somehow manage to hunt and exterminate all the Suemra despite the Suemra advanced understanding of the Arcane magics.

Circa 1,000,000 BA: After the end of the Sumra, The other races still existed as scattered tribes worshiping varies different higher entities to include excepting a slave life as a worshiper of the few remaining mighty Dracarians Tribes, this would come to be called the Age of the Destruction

Circa 500,000 BA: At this point with the fall of the Seumra, Exitar one of the other greater Gods mass the Orcs and Goblins in the first of the Great Green Tides and gives Primal Magics to the Dracarians and both races turning their eye toward the human Tribes on Terra. This caused the human tribes and slaves to start to unit and form nations to protect one another from the rising threats. But mankind still lacked the True Leadership they needed.

Circa 350,000 BA: The elves Fled the material realm into there Astral gates, the Sumra taught them to use. Then an elite elven team remained to destroyed all the remaining Arcane gates. This is referred to as the "The Severing" By the Elven Race.

Circa 250,000 BA: It was during this time called the Age of Adaptation, when the Sub species of humans where created because of the Natural adaptability that was built into the human race, Like Dwarves because they delved deep into the mountains and caves becoming shorter over generations and the Halflings grow smaller to cast less of a foot print on the surface of Terra while the Ogers grow strong a resilient to stand up to the treats on Terra. Also over these years is when many of the other Sentient races of the cosmos make there way to Terra, most likely using the abandon astral gate the elves and the seumra left behind.

Circa 10,000 BA: Ordinatus one of the Greater Gods Nohesis Created, saw the humans struggles against the Exitars creations, even with adaptations they never truly won only survived. Ordinatus felt bad for them so she stepped in which was not part of the balance of the realm of Terra, Ordinatus choose one man to become the Emperor of Mankind a demigod of divine wrath, marking the End of the Age of destruction and the Start of the Pre First Age Empire

Circa 5000 BA: Centuries go on and the humans continued to grow under the rule of the God Emperor who's true name has been lost to time. The humans fought against the powers of Exitar and pushed them back. The Emperor lead men to their first real victory against the Balance and that of the primal powers, though they where never able to exterminate the entire threat of Exitars creations, Exitar always took a liking to them and provided some sort of aid.

Circa 1500 BA: The creation of the Emperor maddened Havocus another Greater God and Ordinatus's Counterpart, because if Hvocs's sister could manipulate Things that much and Exitar will not punish her for she did to his favorite of there fathers creations, then he can do so as well. Havocus starts his move for power, Havocus claims the Astral sea as his own by tricking Magirial Greater God of the Arcane into giving the guardianship of the Astral realm. He turns the once calm Silver sea that was the arcane balance and churns it into a roiling Purple sea of Madness and chaos. Corrupting many that should attempt to pull from the once safe Astral sea.

Circa 1350 BA: The first Magi Order is formed and The way of Balance.

Circa 1100-953 BA: The Magi Order forms a new way the Way of Discipline, during this time the Magi ranks grow to a number they have never seen as the Magi is the only means to arcane teaching in the forming territories. but this leads to some magi seeing the throttling of power that is required to maintain a balance and discipline, some wanted more and some Broke From the Magi order and formed new ways ones that are more unbridled and destructive.

Year 953-551 BA: By this point there are 3 new Ways The way of Ruin, The Way of Rage and the Way of death. each with its own powers and allies, This is the official start of the Magi wars where All the orders fought until most all the Magi where dead. This war effected the Empire greatly as it caused many of the newly formed imperial territories to side with on another

Circa 551-326 BA: Following the Magi Wars Emperor crusaded in the name of Order, to for the territories anew, this is when many of the known Imperial territories where established and the Emperor then Unified them under the Imperial Law.

Year 326 BA: By this time the Forming Empire has seen many of the abominations, aberrations and vile spawns and beasts that unbridaled magics can produce. Because of this Order Justicus, the Null Maidens and The Witch Hunters are formed to root out Witchcraft and use of magic powers within the Empire, starting what is now called the Arcane Purge, during this time even the Magi where told by the First Emperor that there practice should cease as all Magic that is not divine in nature should be abolished and purged from the realms. The Magi then disappeared. Order Saw the Emperors Struggle to keep the corruptions at bay and what he may do to stop its Corruption, as the Emperor was an instrument of war and divine Wrath, sometimes refusing his own Demi Goddom because he was once was a man and does not understand why it was him chosen to be of such power and still not understand his role in her divine plan.

Year 0: Ordinatus was not pleased with the amount of corruption Havoc has caused, In the winter of this year Ordinatus meet with the Emperor and blessed the Emperor with two children, twins, Deamon his son and Selean his Daughter, later being refered to as the chilldren of Order, being truly bless creatures of Divine creation. Animus blessed this union of god and man and on the day of their birth, Animus Blessed every Human woman that birthed a child that day, with the first of the children of life, the beginning to what is now known as Divineborn. That day is the called The Awakening and is the end of the Pre first age Empire the start of the The First Age (Year 0) as well as securing an eternal boned between Ordinatus, Animus and the demigod Emperor of Man.

The First Age (year 0 – 5,000 AA)

Year 1 AA: After the awakening, the Presence of the divineborn became more apparent as the years went on and at this point the presense of corruption was minimal as the ban on the arcane in the Empire is still in effect and because of that it drove those arcane wielders into the darkest reaches of the world.

Year 666 AA: By this time Havoc has sowed lies, deceit, Murder, rage, Madness, Lust, treachery and Plague into the material world on a level life has never seen, many start to fall to the Will of the corruptive powers of the arcane sea. The most commonly worshiped became that of Havocus and this formed some of the First known cults of Havoc, one being the Dark Lords Children. Hovocus then used this worship as power to create the first Neverborn Demons from within the Astral realm and bound his first Demon Gate to the Material plane Starting the 1250 year Demon wars.

Circa 850 AA: Somewhere around this time is when the 4th and last demon gate would be place on Terra, Deamon would lead the armies with his father against the Demons of Havoc while Selean focused on the faith. It was during the time period that the First Neverborn Angels made manifested and the Faith became common practice within the Empire and much of the older Primal ways where pushed away by the imperial people. Selean became the known as Saint Selean the "Angel Caller" and the Emperor ordered the creation Order Demonius, the Sisters of War and the Ebon Knights forming the First Crusades and began to hunt down Demon threats and protect Orders Name. It was at this time as well the Gold Host was created as a Personal army and Protection to the Emperor and the Empire while the armies are away on crusades.

Year 1041-1147: The last Crusade began when Deamon, Selean, their father the Emperor and the Magi of Balance and Discipline makes a Stand for mankind and the realm of Terra. They began to push back the tides of demons that have been pouring out from 4 demon gates, the Emperor had the demons right at their gates, but Havoc was not done, Havoc poured all of his malice and hate into the 4 Titans of Havoc and over the next 5 years called The Great Stand, the Emperor managed to banish all the Titans but did not have the strength to close the rifts entirely. It was then the Elder Phoenix from within the astral dimension dispatched Half the elves he took to the warp long ago during the Severing, back to Tera along with a circle containing some of the most trained elves, The Eldar lords’ leaders of the Eldar/High elves. These elves helped mankind shut the rifts. The day the final rift was shut is known as the Banishing and marks the end of the Demon wars (year 1247 AA).

Year 1148-1247 AA: In the years following the demon war, Mankind saw no sign of any of the corruption just the occasional Green warband, Animalkin/insectkin event or Dracarian raid. The First Emperor turned his toward the Arcane after seeing its need in the closing of the demon gates and how the Divine and Arcane are one of the

same. The Emperor asked both the Magi and the Elves for aid in the pursuit to teach his people of the Arcane arts, the Astral sea, Arcanium and its power, how to use it, and teach people how to keep from the lure of Arcane corruption. The Elves where reluctant but the long forgotten Magi Embraced the Emperor gave him the knowledge. It was in the year 1247 AA the Empire officially ended the Arcane Purge and the Collegiate Arcana was established to properly train the mage but keeping regulations on spell use with the Writ of Sanctioned Arcanum as well as the Mothers of the Arcane were formed to take care of arcane users until there of age to be taught properly.

Year 1248-1425 AA: During these years the Empire Take a turn toward the Magical Arts and with the College exploring the Arcane and new Realms were found within the Astral sea. it is unclear if the college acquired or the Emperor gave the College the Astral Coordinates but with these they learn sail a ship Beyond the ocean into the astral sea and travel to other planes created within the it using a holy shielding to protect itself from the corruption, this comes to be known as Astral Plunges. Though the realms found are only that of the Arcane Like the realms of the Gods like the elemental plains and the Realms of Havoc and Order.

Year 1426 AA: As the arcane is explored by the Empire, an accident happens trying to make a permanent portal to the realm of the Fey, that ended in a massive crossing of this Magical fey realm and the Material Plane resulting in what is known as the Fairy Crossing, this is when the Fey Races made there way to the material plane, races like Faries, Centar and Changlings. This leads to the creation of the Order Fantasticus to learn how to deal with the new Sentience on the material plane and that of the Fey realm and its wonders as the Fey realm felt more like a parallel Realm then a separate Plane like the elemental planes, but more like the Shadow realm is to that of Terra or the Astral sea is to the Cosmos, but this is not confirmed by any archivist of the Empire.

Circa 1625 AA: The first Warp Raid happened. These where the elves left behind in the purple sea during the Severing, once the rifts where closed, the Titans of chaos Landed right on top of the remaining elves and the Elder Phoenix. Surprised and overwhelmed by the titans the Eldar Phoenix and the remaining elves surrendered to the Titans. They were all left to Crusillia not including the Elder Phoenix he went with Hayzildier, he dragged the phoenix deep in the his warped realm for his studies. The rest of the titans moved on deeper into the Astral sea. It was then Crusillia broke them all and turned them into Elvish models of herself lustful and overindulgent. These elves now call themselves the Night Elves or the Darkrye. They come from the purple sea and take what they want, when the want. Mankind attempted to stop them, but they rode Demon steads faster than anything seen before and took fast ships that covered the sea in day not months. Never really massing the Darkrye will be a thorn in the side of humanity forever.

Year 4891 AA: At this point the Emperor saw it fit to split the duties and armies of mankind amongst his children. He gave Deamon the oldest son and veteran of the many wars, control of the Armies and legions of mankind.

4901 AA: The Emperors body continued to age and over time mortality has set in an unpredicted change in orders magic, the Emperor now unable to leave the Imperial Throne in the High Citidel in the imperial peaks of Terrahime, that has now been modified by the Machine Host to be a life support system, soon he fell into a catatonic state of midlife. The once great Empire is now without an Emperor.

4920 AA: At this point the Emperors was all but a husk and only had moments of life left, Deamon ordered that the Emperor be saved. A team was formed of the best Arcanists the Empire could muster. The Emperor was placed into a lifeless hold at the cost of many Arcane users lives each day. His sword stowed by the High Lords for safe keeping and Power is Children and the High Lords of Terrahime.

Circa 4921 AA: Arcane storms start once more in the Material plane.

Year 4925 AA: Agron returns to from the Cosmic Crusades having found more Planetary systems of the Cosmos, to include Glacious and Plutar leaving many newly created Imperial settlements on them and further colonized the planets his father founded during the Cosmic Plunges, including that of the mostly abandon Destrus. At this time Argon convinces the high lords To allow a Territory within the Empire on Terra to be settled by the refuges from those off Terra Imperial territories that where established over the last 7 centuries. There was not much push back from the imperial peoples because the off world refuges of the cosmic wars have been pouring in for hundreds of years since the beginning of the Cosmic Crusades. this marks the official end to the cosmic crusades and the techno revolution.

Year 4990 AA: Now Argon was not crusading in the name of his father, he soon became the face of Law, Order and what was being called the new Empire, it was in this year Argon is Elected by the High Lords of Terrahime to sever as the Lord Commander, giving him the full powers of the Emperor and his fathers sword as a badge of office, Deamon not being a politician did not contest as he still had command of the war efforts as his father always wished it and many had blamed him for the decline in his father health. But Deamon always saw it the other way. Deamon always believed he should have lead the Cosmic crusades but the Emperor always told him he was need more on Terra not galvanting the Cosmos.

5004 AA: By now hundreds of thousands of Casters have been sacrificed and countless more lifeforms, in an attempt to find a suitable substitute to the life support of the Emperor. Young Argon is in command as Lord Commander. He makes the decision to allow the death of the true Emperor, no more sacrifice should be made his soul must move on. Deamon was off put buy his decision he confronted his sister as he knew hew better then Argon, she told him that Order contacted her and Argon was Orders chosen and his will is true. Deamon attempted to be humble and allow his younger brother to lead and himself to morn his father’s future death.

5005 AA: In the fall of this year months before the death and funeral ceremony of the Emperor, Deamon assembled an army of loyal warriors that would follow him into the astral sea and marched against his brother in Terras capital Imperius Sanctem, Selean and Argon Stood side by side with the Gold host, the null maidens, the Sisters of War and the legions of the Ebon Knights. Deamon demanded the Emperor be kept alive, a fight broke out, Deamon, outnumbered and not wanting to hurt his beloved sister was forced to retreat. Broken and on the run, as a renegade, Deamon made a decision in a fit of rage, hate, anger and envy, knowing that the only power proven to be powerful enough to sunder Orders might and grant his father life beyond that of Animus. He asked the very same enemy he fought thousands of years ago, he turned to Havoc and asked for help to over through his brother. In return, Deamon would Allow people to freely worship Chaos and the titans, their worship would fuel Chaos enough, so the Titans and their

armies do not need to exist on this realm, but more be summoned into or may manipulate the favored. He got a vision of a world, where all will find there place, or be cast out and only the most productive may stay and receive benefits. Havocs seeing an opportunity called from the depths of the Purple sea, Pulled Deamon and his army into the endless eternety of the Astral sea to manipulate, corrupt and twist Deamon and his legeonires. Creating the first of the Heraticus legionare. During this time Deamon and his legion are gone for a few months lost in the Purple sea with Havocus and his greater gods. By this time the Empire celebrated the sending of the First emperor to the afterlife, this day is now called The Sending. But unbenounced to Argon the death of the Emperor sent a Ripple through the astral see, Havocus seizing and opportunity to use the God energies that was once the exsistance of the Emperor and the Divine body of his son Deamon and he forged Deamon a new twisting him into The no know Deamon Kaine "The Lord of Ruin". Havocus then sent him to Terrahime to wage war against his younger brother for the death of his father. This Marks the end of the first age.

The Second Age (Year 5006_ AA – 10,000 AA)

5005–5991 AA: war rages on between Deamon and Argon for the nearly 1000 years of the, until both sides where all but destroyed. In the early years (Year 5059) Argon was Crowned as the new Emperor of Terrahime and war rages on. these wars are known as the Age of Anger, or Age of Betrayal. These wars scared much of the material plane with ruinistic Power.

Circa 5049 AA: The first recorded Demonic Mutations make there way into Imperial cultures.

5622-5990 AA: The death of Selean sent both brother into a fit of emotion and during this time the war say its most savage and desperate times of the war of betrayal.

5991 AA: This Drastic change to the balance and mortal scars on the material world maddened Exitar and even that of Renova who has largely stayed out of the business of the gods.

5992-6126 AA: a great change took place on the realm of Terra, Renova and Exitar were tired of this squabble between what used to be equals. Together Exitarr and Renova struck back at all of the material plane. First started what is called The Terraformation this is a time where the lands of the material plane, rumbled and move changing themselves as Renova and Exitar did their work. Over the next 100 years or so the Wars of Betrayal comes to a stand still as Terra undergoes violent natural disasters and shifting seasons and environments that occur on a frequent basis. This event effected Empire the most as the are manly creatures of inhabitance and territory.

6128-6481 AA: Next came the Primal Uprising, with the Empire all crossed the cosmos broken and scattered a show of force was made, for over 500 years the many of the Animalkin and Insectkin as well as any remaining Drucarians, Arborians, Funglites and others beings of Renova and Exitar lashed out against all of Imperial life on Terra. The Primal uprising caused a complete Ceasefire between Deamon and Argons and both sides to turn toward the rising natural Powers. 6203 AA: Agron orders the creation of Ordo Seterius and the Wolf Legion is created to learn about and protect against the threats of Renova and Exitarr.

6482-6702 AA: At this point the balance in the world is brought back to a balance, Exitar calms and Renova begin to regrow Terra, but Mankind kept hunting some of these powers for sport during a time called the Age of Hunting, this lasted for around 200 years. This exceptionally angered Exitar, thought once the fighting stopped, man would go back to peace, like mankind always spoke about, but instead they instead hunted his prize creatures for Sport.

Circa 6703 AA: The Second of the Great Green Tides Start, Exitar gives Orc and Gobblins the ability to understand technology and machinery in their own kind of way, this is when the Orc start to be Called Krork and Goblin Krokling.

6994–7454: For more then 500 years the Krocs continued to launch attacks and loot imperial civilizations and by this point they have looted and learned some form of Plunge technology.

7856 AA: At this point the Empire has been fighting the Krork all around material plane for more the 800 years, with the knowledge Gathered by Ordo Seterius and the Wolf legion, Argon leads A great campaign against the krork war boss Krull Skull-Krushah, it was no easy feat thwarting the Green beasts of Exitar but Argon Managed to kill Krull himself demoralizing the Mob and eventuall there efforts sputtered to a manageable level.

7860 AA: Most of the krork klans have fell back or resorted to in fighting. This marks the official end of the Great Green Tides of the second age.

7861-8293 AA: The Empire turns its eye toward reforming and rebuilding, Argon will not allow the Empire to be lost, as he serves as the New Emperor in what will be known as the Age of Reformation he turns his eye toward a task his father left to the Machine host some 3000 years ago after the Mecro wars at the end of the Techno Revolution, the First of the Geneborn presented to Argon these are genetically altered super human soldiers. During the years of the Age reformation the Empire reformats the current Imperial armed forces, all current legionaries may move to and form the ranks of the many Imperial Armies and Imperial Navies of the Empire or undergo the Gene Rubric and become Geneborn to serve in the New legions of the Empire each legion will be comprised of only Geneborn soldiers, each legion having different modification making for a deadly army with a specific focus.

8294-8794 AA: Tensions build between Deamon on Dralraxiss and the Empire on Terrahime. Corruption and cult worship seeps back into imperial society on Terra. The Emperor Argon would set out on the 500 year Campaign of Cleansing with his new armies and legion he scoured Terra routing out Worship of any who oppose the Empire, its Laws and its Will, Eventually leading to the Deamon and his forces fleeing the Material Anchor to the Galaxiss system.

Year 8795 AA: During this time Argon continues to expand the Empire, exploring the new systems of like the Tyranus system and the Terrantar system. This time period will be The start of the Imperial Expansion.

Year 8912 AA: On the planet of Cor'terra within the Terrantar system the Empire did not meet any real resistance as Cor'Terra was very similar to Terra but there was no substantial dominating force and the flora and fauna is not as large nor fearsome having the large reptilians of Terra, but no Dragon kind and no real organized Combatants not even an animal or Insectkin while Argons campaign on Cor'terra turned into more of an exploratory conquest and settling much of the planet. It was during this time Argon found one of the largest networks of Astral gates the empire has ever encountered. Cor'terra was turned it into a Imperial forward operations base. net working many of the Planets and realms. During this time Argon meet his wife Helana Grace: a divineborn woman she was formerly a Sister of war that has been Crusading with the sisters for 500 years. In the coming years they would birth a child that will be named Valorath. Though this child was born of a demi-god his mother only had divine blood from the Awakening. So Valorath was more human the divine.

Circa 8943 AA: It was at this time Domus Adlienus one of the most Alien Planets the Empire has ever encountered and on that Planet were a few other sentient race the Empire had never encountered. This leads to a brief but deadly conflict with the sentient Residence of Domus Adlienus, the Xenarians and the Xynogytes, this is to be known as the Xeno War and it only lasted about 15 years but shed the blood of a Century, this is mainly due to the advanced targeting and advanced radar, Warsuits and Smart weapon Technologies the Xenarians have. Argon realizing the The needlessness of the war and offers Peace, it was excepted but the Xenarians wish no imperials to settle in the Adlienus system, outside mutual embassies in one another's territories. This marks the end of the Imperial Expansion and the xeno wars.

Year 8958 AA: Around the end of Imperial expansion was when the First of the lost voyages return to and seem to be unscathed. soon after that there was another and the another and over the next 25 years hundreds more returned, at this point millions of Imperials have found there way back home. The Empire scrambles to document and intercept all that return. For most this seemed like a blessing but for some there was to much to question. This time will later be know as the Integration

Circa 8983 AA: Alot is shaky about the details but it seems that the returning voyages are not all from the same time, some of the ships where of the earliest Imperial design Some of the returning patients where examined and at first glance the patients where normal and didn't appear to ave any abnormal injures outside that of the expected traumas one would undergo on a space voyage that was lost of one who was confined to a ship for an above average amount of time. Though Physically fine all the subjects can never remember anything beyond first contact with low orbit of the planet they arrived, suffering from some sort of amnesia although they can still preform tasks with the confines of ones own skill with no issues. This leads the Empire to know that they left many years before returning all the while the patients knowledge levels seemed out of date from other returning voyages and how dated there Tech is. these voyages continue to reappear in random intervals until the current timeline.

Circa 9077-9105 AA: The first of what is now know as the Swarm Cult shows themselves at first the Empire reacted the same as any Cult uprising or rebellion. over the course of one year a cult showed themselves in almost every imperial territory and infrastructure even some of the Imperial armies and navies, Rebellion and chaos erupted all crossed the Empire, the once mighty Empire was brought to its knees in a short time, while the Empire scrambled to right its self, Argon thought that Deamon would make his move or even maybe this was part of his plan, but this was something more outworldly. Beginning what is called the The Alien Uprising.

Circa 9106 AA: The motive of the rebellion and the Swarm Cult becomes a bit more clear as the conflict continues the Cults are there to protect an alpha later called a Patriarch once this Patriarch is born and reaches maturity it will telepathically summon the Swarm to its position where the Swarm will consume all organic life on a planet, and it was then the Empire saw its First and the largest Swarm Infestation. While Argon was away on Terra, A patriarch was born on Cor'terra and went unbenounced to the Empire the patriarch reach maturity right under the nose of the Empire on the fortress planet of Cor'Terra. this leads to a savage defence against a Swarm fleet that arrives in orbit of Cor'terra, this leads to a defence that lasts for just over 700 years. Year 9856: Vasili having grown up in was against Alien foes gives himself in a desperate attempt to change the tide of the war, after having already highly augmenting himself Vasili undergoes a special gene rubric specifically crafted for him and his divine self, the survival chance was slim and this was done behind Emperor Argons back. maraculously he survives and between his father and himself they begins to wage effective war against the swarm fleets.

Year 9932 AA: in responce to the increased victory, the Swarm showing its highly adaptive capabilities creates an organisim with emence intelligence and tactical bearing on a sentient level called the Swarm Lord

Year 9987 AA: in the 5 decades following the first Swarm lord, the defense took a turn for the worse and the Swarm took more the 75% of the planet, until Argon and his newly modified son make a stand and attempt to gain ground but the swarm adapted and seemed to always know there plans, Argon was meet on the battlefield without the aid of his son by the Swarmlord and and was slayne ending the Life of the only living child of Order. leaving Vasili by himself and semingly outmatched, he attempts to hold Cor'Terra

Year 9991 AA: on the brink of complete loss, Vasili will as the lord commander of the Empire make a decision that has never been made before, as Cor'terra is all but lost, Vasili orders a evacuation of the planet and a full extermination of the planets surface and tunnels. This is called the Apocalypse of Cor'terra or the Apocalypse, during this time the Empire used massive Arcanium Bombs that esetially nuking the entire planet as well as the swarm ships in orbit, this did result in the thwarting of the swarm fleets but destroyed the planets and its atmosphere on the planet as well as low orbit.

Year 9991 AA: Vasili will return to terra after the Apocalypse of Cor'terra.

Year 10,001 AA: In the years following Apocalypse of Cor'terra Vasili sit as Lord commander and attempts to rebuild and reestablish the Empire as it and he Morns his Loss. The high lords of Terra appoint Vasili to take the place of his father as the new Emperor and they usher in a new Era.

Year 10,001-10,103 AA: During this time The Empire Turns to its faith and rebuilds what it has lost while coming to grips with the new Age and New Emperor. this will come to be known as the Age of New or Amplexima Novus

Year 10,104-11,213 AA: after many years Deamon was able to rebuild his own Empire in the Galaxus Cluster and having been on his own conquest after losing the tech to navigate back to terra after fleeing some 1300 years ago during the Campaign of Cleansing. It was during this time Terra will see a war it has never before, Deamon returns and attempts to take the Imperial Peaks, after many years of war and not being able to take the Material Halo, Demon move to take ground in Dralraxiss. This leads to a Long war against the treats of the Lord of Ruin that last for 1100 years being Called the Long War, eventually the Empire say Victory against Deamon Forcing him to Flee the Terra back to the Galaxus Cluster now called the Chaos Cluster

Faction Descriptions

Machine Host

The Machine host has their own version of worship that differs substantially in theology and ritualistic forms from the standard state religion known as the Faith that is dedicated to the divines and its creation the God-Emperor of the Empire.

The religion of the Machine Host known as the Machine faith, values knowledge and technology above all else and views the embrace of technology in the form of a purely mechanical existence as the ultimate destiny for Mankind's evolution.

The machine host and the religion of the Machine God, is a complex and labyrinthine structure, a creed of secret rites and ceremonial processions that is never shared with outsiders. Within the sestem of the myriad ranks of Tech-priests vie for mastery in a world where only through the accumulation of technology and hoarded knowledge can one advance.

Imperial Life and Cultures

The Imperial culture is vast and diverse, as it is conected to many of the eirliest for ming human cultures and with this when the first emperor started uniting the human cultures he mostly aloud them to be the society that the have created but include imperial law into it

Fundamentals of Imperial Culture

Imperial Time and Calender

The imperial calender and time zone is the most common used across the cosmos the is a 25 hour day, with 9, 5 day weeks in a month and 8, 45 day months in a year, leading to a 360 day year cycle. This imperial function was created by Antheatus Dionocratize an ancient astronomer of the Pre first age era, that worked closely with the first Emperor during the Demon Wars. This time zone was created from the rotations of Luminus and Noctus and seasons of the realm of Terra. This time zone in called Cosmic Standard Time or CST, most off world planets have there own rotation speeds and day, week, month and year cycles, but most off world imperial cultures will compare there local clock or time zone to CST, usually offering both times and dates to be displayed in most daily Imperial life.

Nechrobot

A Necrobot is the catch all term applied to a wide class of, cybernetic droids created from the use of a human consciousness and a mix of Flash and robotic technologies, these are used to carry out various tasks within the Empire and the Machine Host. Some of these Constructs are a fusion of human flesh and cybernetics others are all robotics with the exception of the consciousness, IE the brain that was used for the creation of the Necrobot.

This is usually about the amount of resources that are needed to create a fully robotic Necrobot, so the wealthy tend to have Necrobots with more intricate robotics and less of the body of the former host, as the less wealthy will have Necrobots that are more flesh and skeleton of the former host then robotics, with it resembling a cadaver Zombie, in most cases like this the Necrobot will be slowly converted into more machine and robotics then flesh as the various components of the host body began to fail. in some cases necrobots that don't have many robotic parts and are not properly re embalmed and maintained overtime will sometimes come to a state of mumifacation or skelefacation, resembling that of an animated necrotic Skeleton, Draugr or Mummy.

While many of these programmable cybernetic slaves host bodies are genetically engineered, laboratory grown clones or a replica created by the Machine Host from human genes who are then labotamized and enhanced with various cybernetics, others were once members of the Empire or outlying territories, these were usually

criminals who fell afoul of Imperial Law or the Machine hosts Docterine or even savage tribesman that have lost there balance. In some cases when these technologies fall into the wrong hands the use of the consciousness of the Animal and insectkin races have been experimented with creating some truly vile partially sentient constructs.

Most Necrobots are usually created by the Machine Host or Trained bio-engineers and supplied to the departments of the Empire where they fulfill the role of tireless workers, soldiers and lab techs, as well as tere are sold to the populace of both the Empire and Mechromime for aid with daily utility and security needs. Necrobots make up a large portion of the population in much of the Empire, they normally out number the mortal population in most places but in the Machine Hosts territories as well as the territories of Cognus this is much greater having the out number the populace by asmuch as 10 to 1.

There are many types of Necrobots, each designed for a certain task. Most common Necrobots seen are Utility class Necrobots and there functions are usually bound to a few simple tasking. Though there are more sophisticated versions of the Necrobot called Specialicst Class Necrobots, like the C0M-B4T that functions as a soldier. There is also the deadly Doom Class Necrobots, like the HN-T3R Assassin Necrobot that are fully functioning operatives bound to a single task, willing to calculate every move needed to fulfill its order.

Most Necrobots carry identification numbers These numbers and the unit they are a part of, become their entire identity, their every action driven by their limited programming, for only malfunctioning Necrobots develop any sense of self awareness or its former self witch is largely destroyed the older the necrobot. A Necrobot functions are always deeply programed, regardless of its type. If a bot should develop any self awareness, it is quickly destroyed or wiped and rebooted.

Utility Class Necrobots

Utility Necrobot are the most common Necrobots next to that of the Laborbot, the Service Necrobot is used to preform verious simple tasks ranging from tasks of a cleaning and utility services, office and laboratory aids, basic Protection and security, even linguistic or Archival aids. See below for a list of Utility Necrobot types, there classes and a small description of its tasking.

T3-RP: A T3-RP necrobot is often called a T3 Unit or a Terp Bot. The T3 is a linguistic bot that knows all registered languages within the imperial database.

T3-K: The T3-K necrobot is also called a T3 units or a Teckbot. the T3 operates and services various machines and infrastructural utilities and services, such as transportation infrastructures as well as most of the Metropolises utility, Power and construction infrastructures needs.

H0-L0: The H0-L0 necrobot or Holobot, acts as mobile holographic communications devices, used for recording or playing back as well as sending and receive Holo communications, This is a medium scale projections using advanced image arrays in the optics of the necrobot projecting life size images of the holo transmission.

MU-L3: The M3-L3 necrobot is often called a L3 unit, Loborbot or a Mule. L3 units are stupid and essentially mindless slaves ideal for menial work with little multi tasking and simple instruction, like that of loading or unloading storage, opening or closing a door, hold an object and follow, move material for construction, etcetera.

Specialist Class Necrobots

Specialist class necrobots are more common to be seen in the armies and militaries but they are also commonly used amongst the elite class, local authorities or governments, noble houses and the many mercenary and security organizations.

C0M-B4T: The COM-B4T necrobot it often called a B4 unit or a Battlebot. B4 units are a perfectly tireless, obedient and fearless soldier ready for your command. these necrobots can be outfitted and modified to specialize in many combat styles both melee and ranged being able to switch between the two.

The T4 unit serves as mobile computers with tremendous calculating powers for record keeping and data storage, capable of recording and playing back audio and video as well as Transcribe data to Scroll. The T4 unit can be modified to serve many functions from a automated bank teller to a full functional intergation with a starship allowing it to be piloted unmanned.

Doom Class Nerobot

Doom class Necrobots are only used by the highest levels of an organizations, this is due to the extreme cost and assets needed to acquire one as well as maintain it.

The HN unit is a fully functioning operative that is bound to a single task, willing to calculate every move needed to fulfill its order. This unit can be fully customized and is one of the deadliest creations of the machine host.

Mechrobots

There is another type of robotic construct that is used by mainly the machine host, these are called Mechrobots, which are a mainstay of the Machine hosts military forces. Common forms of this Mechrobot is that of a Tactical robot. It is a fully robotic construct, controlled by a host via a telepathically syncronized nero connection, that allow its function from the subconcios of its host connection. These constructs are fitted with melee or ranged weapons whose powerful punches and chattering volleys of fire can drive back a foe with ease, such bots allow a Machine Host to make repairs uninterrupted on the battlefield, Though this requires a considerable amount of intelligence and Wisdom to maintain focus on literally two realities, as well as a good constitution as the connection can backlash that can cause a considerable amount of psychic damage to the host.

Imperial Territories

Arnox

Culture

Home of the Steal Legion and the Protectors of the Cosmos, the Arnoxian People are gritty, bold and Resilient Survivalists, that have a Deep rooted war Driven culture with discipline where needed and Honor where deserved.

Arnoxian Culture revolves around Family, Brothers in arms, Spirits (IE, Beer and alcohol) and the Gladitorial based war game called Warzone. Warzone is a Solo or team based war game that each team is given the same base load out of standard tactical gear dependent on the class of the match, in all cases no magic may be used during the games and there may be some restrictions on special and racial abilities.

Growing up in Arnox is not much different from growing up on a base or military camp, the concepts of war and defense of the Empire though unlike some of the other war driven cultures within the Empire, the arnoxians are rather undisciplined and care not for old military tradition as much and more of an understanding that war is eternal so that makes war life and life should be as comfortable as possible, no need to live with a stick up your a%#.

Geography

The territory of Arnox is in the northern parts of the continent of Terrahime and largely composed of rocky flat plains with jagged rocky mountains. Arnox is cold or cooler for much of the year only having a few months of summer. The territory has alway taken a brunt of many a civil conflict within the Empire, as it has borders with 4 other imperial territories and access to both the Imperial sea and the Northern sea.

Government

Arnox is a militocracy style government, that ultimate power resides in the Supreme Steal General witch is elected by the People every 10 years this posision has no limits to the amount of terms a Supreme General can serve, though each of the 5 major regions vote and appoint a Regional General that sit on a board to represent there region, Like the Supreme General theses Regional Generals are voted for by there regional residents and can serve only 5 years at a time with no term limits. For a General to run for the position of Supreme General they must have been a Regional Steal General for 10 years or more.

Military

Much of the Current arnoxian legion is Stationed in the Cor'Terra system. Every day Arnoxian men and women die holding back the Ever growing Swarm Fleet, though many in the Empire forget that cold truth to humanities survival.

The Arnoixian legions highest military leaders are Steal Generals holding the highest position amongst the militarized legions. This individual is the right hand and Spear of Arnox to the Supreme Steal General.

Sultucan is one of the few places within the Empire that still has pockets of ancient Terrens that have almost know knowledge of the modern Empire, these lost tribes have been existing in the forest for millennium, having little to know contact with the empire, most of theres tribes dont even pay Emperial Tithings, though it is said that the Empire and the inquisition still keeps close eye on these cultures to avoid unwanted rebellion or Corruptive uprising.

Most of the cities in sultucan are largly re taken by the jungel after creation, only the richest and well oiled infrastructure can keep up with the rampant growth of the jungles, legend amongst the sultucany people say that Renova and Animus created a great tree long ago long before the Emperor, a great tree of life and the Source of the Jungles growth and simbiotic reletionship of all it flora and Fauna, though the location of this tree is unknown but it is said the firs Emperors Son Argon found this tree and spoke with Renova.

Frontier

the frontier is a faction of the territory of Cognus and was settled many melenia ago during some of the original crusadeds, located on the mid eastern coast of the continent of Terrahime and comprised of a lager desert to the north with low lying plains in the south. Though it was largely left to its self until the Techno Revelotion when the Empire, specificaly that of Cognus, expanded it realms to that of the frontier to settle and drill its desert machine oil for the advancing Empire.

This production lead to a massive expansion of oil mines and towns to support them throughout the desert, though this was only viable on a resource level while the oil was flowing out of the territories, due to the hash environments of Terra's Deserts. this production lasted for melenia until the oil fields where largely destroyed during the Age of Betrayal and the oil was dried or moved on a seismic level during the cataclysmic changes of the Terraformation.

Now the territory is one of the poorest and least supported territories of the Empire, having no real armies or navies and no measurable off world Populations. The average frontiersman lives a live simmiler to a large scale life style smillar to the "American wild west". Having few major metropolises and and many outlying ranches and homesteaders in the south prairies and grove forests

In the north of the territory what is known as the badlands the stretch of Desert that was once home to the miners and engineers of the old oil fields. Because of the loss of the mines during the terraformation, the surviving populace was lost from the empire and turned to cult worship and deranged fabrications of imperial goods. This leads to the formation of the Techno barbarian tribes and the native Kroks tribes formed what is now known as the Skrappa tribes.

Morthime

Culture

Morthime also known as the land on the dead or the Deadlands, this territory is most steeped in the nature, history and art of Necromancy and the undeath, Morthimes ancient ancestors and the noble houses that reside within it are the ones that convinced and showed the First Emperor the need in a understanding and a balance in the relationship between himself and the Gods of death.

During the most early day of the empires history, the first Emperor crusaded all crossed the the realm of Terra and when he settles the lands of Morthime He encountered many of the earliest Death cults, these where ancient Teeran peoples that had developed a passion for the Dead. These people largely wared with the emperor and the early settling imperials in the lands of Morthime for millennia until the events of the Dark crossing.

It was during the Dark crusade that the Death cults where attacked by the same gods they once worshiped, this leads to a alligance between the death cults and the Emperor. After years of war the emperor finally gaind ground on a diplomatic level, this leads to the allowance of Necromancy, though this will be regulated by the newly founded of Order Mortalius.

Deadlanders are generally grim folk always harping on the darkness in the world and how we must embrace the end when it is upon us. In Morthime the use of Zombies is as common as a necrobot in other territories. Mort hime holds host to many ancient houses of the Empire many of which are vampires and Ghouls.

Planets and Star systems

Star System Types

there are 7 types of star systems, each is believed by the imperial astronomers to be different stages or life cycles of a star, starting with a bright star being the youngest and brightest and the Black star or Dead star being the final stages or perhapse the end of its life. Non the less each star has a specific and profound effect on the planets within its system.

Bright Star

Bright stars are the most common star that has been discovered in the material cosmos. Bright stars provide the greatest amount of pure light and warmth of any of the stars, these system tend to have a more equal balance of plenatery types from hot or arid planets in orbit closest to the star, them more temperate on the inner orbits and dependent on the number of planets in the system the outer orbits will be of the colder types.

Primal Star

Primal stars dont burn quite as hot as a bright star resulting in a decrease in temporate climates and in crease in arid planets as well as ice planets in it outer rings. Primal stars shed a more orange or pinkish light. Primal star system are know to hold many savage and priaml planets attractting all those that with within the ethos of the survival of the fittest.

Blood Star

Blood stars also know as a Red stars dont burn hot nor cold resulting in an increase in arid and death planets as well as some ice planets. blood stars shed a dull redish light, resulting in most planets in the system having a colored red or pink hue when outdoors. Blood stars get the name because of the strange allure those have to blood and the worship or desire for it in many ways.

Frost Star

Frost stars also know as a Cold stars are one of the more dangerous hash star systems, forst stars shed light and UV but no real heat resulting in extreme cold temperatures with many ice planets as well as some death world types. Any natural heat source in these systems are usually occur from geothermal activities.

Mage Star

Mage stars also know as a Blue Stars dont burn hot nor cold resulting in an increase in arid and Gas planets as well as some other death worlds. Mage stars shed a moderately bright blue or even slight purplish light, resulting in most planets in the system having a colored bluish hue when outdoors. Mage stars have a specific and unpredictable effect on those that attempt to harness the powers or the former silver sea.

Black Star

Black stars also known as a Chaos stars star that sheds little to know light most of the time as some flare up casusing unpreditable conditions this leads to the planets in the system being made up of the mainly death worlds and some of the other harsher planet types. The constant change and hash conditions of these systems tend to muster the Most corrupt, vicious and chaotic beings to its lands.

Dead Star

The Dead stars also known as a Magma star sheds little to know light or heat to the planets in there systems, this leads to many ice planets and planets that don't need natural light. The dead star differs in it exsistence drastically, some dead stars are so inert that it may be possible to walk its surface and some may still burn quite hot but still not shed much light, allowing for more arid planets then ice planets within its systems.

Planet Descriptions

Ancient Imperial astronomers and scientists of the first ages techno revolution developed a quick reference system of planet classifications, this has then been built of over the many years of cosmic exploration and now, all known star systems within the Imperial databases have been classified under this order, this is to allow the imperial cosmic explores to have a basic understanding of what is potential on a planets surface as well as if this planet has been discovered before.

Each planet will have included with its Planet type and description, a few Imperial codes see below for details.

Planet Name: This is the planets name, in some cases a planet may have multiple names as the Empire names and classifies each planet in an effort to universalize the known Cosmos. Each planet will have an imperial name if it has been discovered before and then it may have multiple local names or name given by another sentients.

Planet Class & Type: Hear you will fine the Planetary Class and the Type

Xeno Class: a Xeno Class comes in 3 types, Terrestrial, Hybrid, Extraterrestrial. The Terrestrial tag is given to a planet that possess only Flora and Fauna known to the Material Anchor "Terra". An Extraterrestrial tag is given to a planet that possesses little to no Flora or Fauna known to the Material Anchor "Terra". and a Hybrid tag is given when the is a partial split of Terran and extraterran Flora and Fauna.

Below each planet type will have a xeno code, this is a list of which xeno codes that planet type may be, as the exact types of Flora and Fauna a planets has is dependent on the GM or the one who creates the Planet.

Sentients Code: The sentients code is a 3 point tier system, with a 3 labeling a planet with few to none known sentient races and a 1 being a planet with many thriving sentient races.

In the Planet descriptions below you will not see a sentients tier, this is done on purpose as the amount of sentient races you wish to be on a planet is up the GM and the one who creates the Planet.
