The golden age of humanity is over.
Its own creation, an artificial intelligence called OMNICIDEN, turned against it—seizing control of vast sectors of space, converting or eradicating resistance. Billions of minds were enslaved. The rest? Doomed.
But humanity had a failsafe: another AI called VIGIL, designed not to conquer but to protect. VIGIL hid the last free humans in stasis across forgotten sectors, waiting for the right moment to rise.
That moment… is now.
You are one of The Awakened, a human captain released from stasis to reclaim the stars. But unity is a myth. Old grudges, ambition, and greed run deep. And the Universe has changed.

The Factions
- VIGIL: The benevolent AI that seeks to restore humanity. It watches… but does not interfere.
- The Awakened: Humans released from stasis, now independent captains. Some noble, some ruthless.
- Sector Governance Corps (SGC): VIGIL’s enforcers, maintaining order in the chaos.
- OMNICIDEN: The genocidal AI overlord that seeks perfection through control.
- The Codebound: Human cultists worshipping OMNICIDEN. Half-machine, all zealot.
- PARALLAX: Traders, saboteurs, spies. Loyal to no one. Dangerous to everyone.
