== Phonetics and Sounds ==

{| border=1
|-
| 6 vowels
| 6 vowels
| a, e, i, o, u, y
|-
| rowspan = 2 | 18 consonants
| 6 aspirates
| c, j, x, f, v, h
|-
| 12 other
| g/k, d/t, z/s, m/n, b/p, l/r
|}

;Notes:
* '''a, e, i, o, u''' are sounded as in Latin, '''y''' is the neutral vowel in Welsh, same length for all 6 vowels.
* '''x''' sounds like sh in ''show''.
* '''c''' as in ''ch''in or ''ch''eese.
* '''k''' as in ''k''ite or ''c''ost.
* '''v''' can sound like the v or w in ''view''.
* '''j''' sounds like j in ''bonjour'' and *must* be sounded.
* '''g''' must be hard at all times, as in ''get'', or it will be confused with '''j''' (eg. <s>''gem''</s>).

Romanized script will use these letters. Questions may optionally be marked with a ? when sentences in the romanized version. All sentences must end in a full stop.

Permenca is a stress-free language. In some areas, however, it is considered polite to lightly stress the first syllable of each sentence fragment.

==Written Script==

'''''Under Construction'''''
Sure, no problem, I'll make it as complex as possible ^.^;;

==Radicals==
Pirmenca is a heavily synthetic language, with most sentence fragments consisting of radicals joined together.
Here is a list of radicals:

'''''Under Construction'''''

{| border=1
|-
| radical | form | approximate meaning
|-
| === g ===
|-
| go | v |
|-
| gin | related

==Introduction==

This Wiki is dedicated for the ConWorlding of project Worblamation, by the team of Worblamation. It is created using the fertile imaginations of the Team's members.

The project Worblamation has an ultimate goal: to create a ConWorld with depth, consistency, beauty and intricacy that can be found in J. R. R. Tolkien's 'Middle-Earth'; which was also what inspired this project. As a Conworld is a beautiful as it would be, it is as difficult to make.

Ultimately, we are just out to have fun in the midst of creating this universe.
Future intentions to create games out of this are unknown, but we are in the midst of playing something what we call "Sim Universe".
After "Sim Universe" we carry on to play "Sim Universe: at War" to signify the various expansions of various empires and races and contact between the races.

There are times where we would play d20 RPG modes or even the table-top war games. This is just simulation of wars, adventures and events that might take place in the timeline of the whole conworld.

We are determined to create an alternative reality with a variety of lifeforms and cultures, ultimately a whole universe in essence. Wait, wouldn't that make this ConWorld, ConUniverse? or better still, ConVerse! =)

==History==
//a short history of ConWorld.Worblamation

This project was launched in June, 2007. It originally started off as a small minute seed in a small little corner of Daniel's ([[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]]) brain. Eventually, it sprouted and sparked into what it has become today.

Along the way, the Team of Worblamation was formed. Recruiting a group of ConArtists(not to be confused with con-artists!), Worblamation project wouldn't be what it would be today, thanks to:

''See Also: [[Policy:Callsigns]]''

* Alexander([[User:Ketsu|Ketsu]])
* Azri ([[User:Aajizut|Aajizut]]) *Officially Withdrawn*
* Joel ([[User:Izuut|Izuut]])
* Kai Wei ([[User:Rheylakie|Rheylakie]])
* Joe ([[User:Gnaizda|Gnaizda]])

==Development of Plot==

'''//There are some proposed changes to the Plot Development, where the various segments are modified... Refer to the ConWorld forums for more info. [[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]] 03:33, 6 April 2008 (EDT)'''

There are various segments in this epic tale of the revelational Techno-magi.

'''Post-Modern Segment''':
It all starts off with a World similar to Earth, with a reality similar to ours, and a Universe similar to ours. After post-modern technology allowed us humans to be able to colonise planets in our solar system, it was time to find ways and found whole technologies to colonise other planets within our Solar System.

'''The Great Rapture Segment''':
Humanity finds the means and technology through an alien ship that had crashed on Earth (or any other planet, like Mars.) in the past to venture further into the deep wonders of space and they create the Mothership(name still in discussion) which they plan to use to colonise the next promising solar system, Alpha Centauri. However, due to a foolish accident conducted on the Sun which causes the Sun to accelerate its life span causing it to become a Red Giant sooner then expected. With this the Mothership's development was accelerated and The Great Plan was conducted in secret to selective choose who to bring along on the Exodus.

'''Exodus Segment''':
In essence, as the word "Exodus" means ''the great journey''(or similar), this is talking about the part where humans colonize many other systems and migrate there, forming various factions and alliances. Alien races are discovered by the humans and come into the story as 2 Mega-factions comprised of different planet races that are in disagreement as to the fate of planet Earth due to a prophesy. The factions within the mega-factions are also not totally allied with one another but are joining due to convenience or are being extorted. This is also where the High-Tech conflict would occur.

'''Apocalypse Segment''':
Oh no, did you hear Apocalypse? Oh yes, you did. This segment of the story portrays the plight of Humans left on Earth. With the constant radiation blasting the wildlife are exposed to, plants, animals and Humans start to mutate and 3 major camps emerge from the radioactive ashes of the battlefield. The Vaults, the Mutants and the Fraternity of Steel who are at war with one another. The Vaults are attacked by raids from the Fraternity of Steel which crack their underground vaults and pillage their technologies as they see technology as a mystical force and A.I. to be a God. The Mutants are comprised of mutated humans that are neither in the Vaults or in the Fraternity of Steel and instead were the majority of people that had no proper shelter against the radiation. Strangely, they mirror Humanity's Fantasy creatures but slightly different.

Nobody from other systems tried colonising back the Homeworld of Earth for fear that the anomalies in the system might be detrimental to both the ship and humans, or that the humans might become all-powerful and turn back onto the rest of the human race.

'''Regenesis Segment''':
Millenia passed, human survivors of Apocalypse have evolved. Magic appears. etc etc etc. This is one part that is VERY unclear and vague currently. There are just so many different variations that are so possible. As the name suggests, this is a new beginning, except very much like a "lord of the rings" part.

(splice Starcraft, Lord of the Rings, Warcraft III ...etc. in here)

'''Armageddon Segment''':
Old Humans decided to recolonise Earth. But found that it already have people. Imagine this segment as Magic vs Technology kind of thing.

Very very complicated storyline for this part. But just take it that nobody wins, and alot of people would be involved, parallel universes, and other weird stuff. You know... like the recent block in Magic: the Gathering. different planes and stuff...

'''Revelation Segment''':
Somehow, a peace treaty is formed. Council of the Techno-magi formed. Other forms of conflict occur.
Nothing much to elaborate.

END OF STORY!
or perhaps more continuation... =D

Ketsu: Status report

== 'O'-level Periods ==

It's that time again, of crappy studying and playing around. Wanna work on this thing afterwards? [[User:Ketsu|Ketsu]] [[User_talk:Ketsu|Drop a Msg]]Alex 22:01, 13 March 2008 (EST)

Yes, of course. We will, considering the way things are...
1st milestone to touch: Complete a game demo. FPS style.

Proposed setting: The period where earth gets nuked by the moon reactor in the Armageddon segment. Focal point on the guy escaping. Then perhaps we could put complicated politics into that, probably. That is if we complete the demo. That might be the 2nd milestone: the whole game.

Just so you all know, there's this "Intel Game Demo competition" going on annually i think.
Probably after the O's, we might have to give up certain commitments to work on it.

Draw up storyboards, work out the plan, artwork and design... and the like. Think about it.
[[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]] 01:21, 16 March 2008 (EST)

I'm on minor-ideas mode at the moment. Impatient as I want to jump straight into development after the 'O's. [[User:Ketsu|Ketsu]] [[User_talk:Ketsu|Drop a Msg]]Alex 05:09, 21 September 2008 (PDT)

==Introduction==

This Wiki is dedicated for the ConWorlding of project Worblamation, by the team of Worblamation. It is created using the fertile imaginations of the Team's members.

The project Worblamation has an ultimate goal: to create a ConWorld with depth, consistency, beauty and intricacy that can be found in J. R. R. Tolkien's 'Middle-Earth'; which was also what inspired this project. As a Conworld is a beautiful as it would be, it is as difficult to make.

Ultimately, we are just out to have fun in the midst of creating this universe.
Future intentions to create games out of this are unknown, but we are in the midst of playing something what we call "Sim Universe".
After "Sim Universe" we carry on to play "Sim Universe: at War" to signify the various expansions of various empires and races and contact between the races.

There are times where we would play d20 RPG modes or even the table-top war games. This is just simulation of wars, adventures and events that might take place in the timeline of the whole conworld.

We are determined to create an alternative reality with a variety of lifeforms and cultures, ultimately a whole universe in essence. Wait, wouldn't that make this ConWorld, ConUniverse? or better still, ConVerse! =)

==History==
//a short history of ConWorld.Worblamation

This project was launched in June, 2007. It originally started off as a small minute seed in a small little corner of Daniel's ([[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]]) brain. Eventually, it sprouted and sparked into what it has become today.

Along the way, the Team of Worblamation was formed. Recruiting a group of ConArtists(not to be confused with con-artists!), Worblamation project wouldn't be what it would be today, thanks to:

* Alexander([[User:Ketsu|Ketsu]])
* Azri ([[User:Aajizut|Aajizut]]) *Officially Withdrawn*
* Joel ([[User:Izuut|Izuut]])

==Development of Plot==

'''//There are some proposed changes to the Plot Development, where the various segments are modified... Refer to the ConWorld forums for more info. [[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]] 03:33, 6 April 2008 (EDT)'''

There are various segments in this epic tale of the revelational Techno-magi.

'''Post-Modern Segment''':
It all starts off with a World similar to Earth, with a reality similar to ours, and a Universe similar to ours. After post-modern technology allowed us humans to be able to colonise planets in our solar system, it was time to find ways and found whole technologies to colonise other planets within our Solar System.

'''The Great Rapture Segment''':
Humanity finds the means and technology through an alien ship that had crashed on Earth (or any other planet, like Mars.) in the past to venture further into the deep wonders of space and they create the Mothership(name still in discussion) which they plan to use to colonise the next promising solar system, Alpha Centauri. However, due to a foolish accident conducted on the Sun which causes the Sun to accelerate its life span causing it to become a Red Giant sooner then expected. With this the Mothership's development was accelerated and The Great Plan was conducted in secret to selective choose who to bring along on the Exodus.

'''Exodus Segment''':
In essence, as the word "Exodus" means ''the great journey''(or similar), this is talking about the part where humans colonize many other systems and migrate there, forming various factions and alliances. Alien races are discovered by the humans and come into the story as 2 Mega-factions comprised of different planet races that are in disagreement as to the fate of planet Earth due to a prophesy. The factions within the mega-factions are also not totally allied with one another but are joining due to convenience or are being extorted. This is also where the High-Tech conflict would occur.

'''Apocalypse Segment''':
Oh no, did you hear Apocalypse? Oh yes, you did. This segment of the story portrays the plight of Humans left on Earth. With the constant radiation blasting the wildlife are exposed to, plants, animals and Humans start to mutate and 3 major camps emerge from the radioactive ashes of the battlefield. The Vaults, the Mutants and the Fraternity of Steel who are at war with one another. The Vaults are attacked by raids from the Fraternity of Steel which crack their underground vaults and pillage their technologies as they see technology as a mystical force and A.I. to be a God. The Mutants are comprised of mutated humans that are neither in the Vaults or in the Fraternity of Steel and instead were the majority of people that had no proper shelter against the radiation. Strangely, they mirror Humanity's Fantasy creatures but slightly different.

Nobody from other systems tried colonising back the Homeworld of Earth for fear that the anomalies in the system might be detrimental to both the ship and humans, or that the humans might become all-powerful and turn back onto the rest of the human race.

'''Regenesis Segment''':
Millenia passed, human survivors of Apocalypse have evolved. Magic appears. etc etc etc. This is one part that is VERY unclear and vague currently. There are just so many different variations that are so possible. As the name suggests, this is a new beginning, except very much like a "lord of the rings" part.

(splice Starcraft, Lord of the Rings, Warcraft III ...etc. in here)

'''Armageddon Segment''':
Old Humans decided to recolonise Earth. But found that it already have people. Imagine this segment as Magic vs Technology kind of thing.

Very very complicated storyline for this part. But just take it that nobody wins, and alot of people would be involved, parallel universes, and other weird stuff. You know... like the recent block in Magic: the Gathering. different planes and stuff...

'''Revelation Segment''':
Somehow, a peace treaty is formed. Council of the Techno-magi formed. Other forms of conflict occur.
Nothing much to elaborate.

END OF STORY!
or perhaps more continuation... =D

Forum:Factions within the alien races discussion

2008-07-13T05:54:16Z

Ketsu: /* References */

''Original topic: [http://worblamation.forumcity.com/viewtopic.php?t=27 (t=27)]''

''Please follow up the discussion on the forums instead of changing this page.'' 
''Click on the reference links to read up the background of that statement.'' 
''Out-of-story content is in italics.''

== Structure of the universe ==
Three factions exist in the universe, two of which are hostile to each other and the remaining one tries to be neutral. Faction members generally only agree to be friendly during war, unless other agreements are made individually by bilateral relations or otherwise. {{ref|1|p60|a}}

Humans are generally ignorant of other races until [[Armegeddon_Segment|Stage Four: Armageddon]]. {{ref|1|p60|b}}

''Basically I want a universe that we can basically make into a sandbox with some guidelines.'' {{ref|3|p72|a}}

''Races can be either based on ancient lore (like lord of the rings), or be futuristic (like star wars/star trek era). This allows for Magic vs Technology.'' {{ref|4|p100|a}}

=== Hostile Faction: Serene ===

=== Hostile Faction: Chaos ===

=== Neutral Faction ===
''Members neutral faction does not have to be peace loving, as all societies will have outcasts and rogues.'' {{ref|1|p60|c}}

=== Other Parties ===
* [[#Humans]]
* [[#Hiirgardee]]
* [[#OWG]]

''The reason why I put these in separate sections instead of under here is because it flows with the content this way. ~Ketsu''

== Prophesy ==

A prophesy causes all factions to fight for a singular object,{{ref|1|p60|d}} this prophesy evolved individually on all involved planets,{{ref|2|p69|a}} but is not exactly the same on all said planets. {{ref|7|p137|a}}

''The number of aforementioned prophetic races are up to whoever wants to create a spiritual race.'' {{ref|3|p72|b}}

=== Basic Generalized Version ===

The prophesy would say that on Earth, the true race who can find '''the special place or item''' will be able to ascend to the next stage of evolution, The Master Race. {{ref|3|p72|c}}

This special place or item shall be temporarily named Relic henceforth.

=== The Crusade ===
A crusade will occur due to this prophesy.

[QUOTE]The problem is that no one wants to let anyone become the Master Race cos they're all greedy bastards or have no faith that the Master Race will not wipe other races out. To actually find this special item or place, they need researchers, archaeologists, surveyors and other scientists to scour through the planet to find it. That would take days or weeks or even months. That's why most races want to grab the planet to see whether they hit jackpot and through discovering where it is and also as insurance that no one will get it.[/QUOTE] {{ref|3|p72|d}} Might want to wikify this quote

== Earth ==

=== Pre-Exodus Period ===

Humanity developed into the late stages of the Fusion Age, progress level 7. Fusion engines are possible, by using magnetism (or similar) to contain the fusion reactions within the reactor, making a much more efficient power source. Solar energy systems also developed to a much advanced stage. Mars is colonized. The whole solar system is accessible to some, strictly in the industry business where mining of ores and minerals are involved. {{ref|8|p139|a}} However, we are not yet able to travel to a distant star within the lifespan of a human, and thus are generally ignorant of other races. {{ref|1|p60|e}}

=== Exodus ===

So after successful trials for unmanned probe with that drive and finally reached alpha centauri, they begin building the exodus ship, the 1st colony ship ever built, with ready buildings and everything needed for a colony to be established. However, the cataclysm occurred, due to some STUPID HUMAN DOING which had something to do with the sun, and then humans rushed the production of the exodus with success, and they escaped successfully but resultant chaos and conflict for humans on earth from being "left behind to die and rot" caused them to hate the exodus humans, later used as an excuse for the "left to rot" humans to kill the exodus humans on their return to earth in the later segment. {{ref|8|p139|b}}

=== Post-Apocalyptic Period ===

Thus the 'portal' was opened, which paved the way to otherwordly beings like gods and stuff and the destruction of earth's surface left the people distraught, technological regression ensues, and mutation begins. Like the setting of fallout the game, where it is set in the post apocalyptic period, where 3 factions are present: ''Refer to [[#Earth Humans]]'' {{ref|8|p139|c}}

=== How ancient is ancient? ===
The technology on Earth is defined as "not so advanced". Examples of weapons or gadgets incude:
* Guns (non-automatic)
* Explosives
* Early Helicopters (Goblin/Gnome-made)
* Flash powder (used in flash bangs)

''Try to imagine a time where it was an era where warcraft III took place.'' {{ref|6|p133|a}}

=== Dealing with enemy high-tech races ===

On Earth, High tech races can't use "weapons of mass destruction" because that would risk destroying precious information on the whereabouts of the location of the Relic. Magic wielders are also able to change Earth's atmosphere on a small scales so technologies such as energy-based plasma guns and lasers don't work correctly. However, this doesn't mean that these high-tech weapons are totally ineffective - some races resort to old fashioned ballistics while others continue to rely on their malfunctioning equipment. {{ref|5|p114|a}} {{ref|6|p133|b}}

== Humans ==

=== Earth Humans ===

Humans left by the Exodus Humans to rot and die on the Earth. Earth Humans mutate over a period of few millenia due to their being blasted with gamma rays and evolved with magic. {{ref|8|p139|h}} {{ref|9|p141|a}} {{ref|13|p165|a}}

''Think Orcs, Dwarves, Elves.'' {{ref|9|p141|b}}

These humans eventually become [[#Ascended Humans]].

==== Vault Humans / Technologists ====
People who built a vault to contain all the necessary technology, and they lived in there, safe from the cataclysm, and thus untouched by the mutation sequences. finally emerging as the most techno advanced NORMAL humans, but people generally became so afraid of technology that these tech advanced humans are killed off soon after, but some are still alive, so they are very rare, ultimately the world's technologies become "lost", locked in the vaults {{ref|8|p139|d}}

==== Technopriests ====
Actually scientists who make technology a religion and worship the "machine god". These people break into the lost vaults and steal those technology for their own use. However, they are also hard to find since they are the minority and also hiding from the technology fearing population. {{ref|8|p139|e}}

==== General Population ====
These are the people who had experienced mutation, so they possess magic.
They can be those who have evolved into the various "races" we all know in ancient lore: elves who adore the woods, dwarves who live in impregnable fortresses under the mountains, orcs who have increased aggression and the bad side of humans intensify, etc. {{ref|8|p139|f}}

=== Ascended Humans ===

Earth humans find the Relic, thanks to an 'epic' battle against the Otherworldy Gods. After this Relic is found, all the humans on Earth make the final ascension of evolution, becoming the Perfect Race.{{ref|9|p141|c}}

These humans are able to roam the universe in their spiritual form. {{ref|9|p141|d}} However, still require their physical bodies in order to survive.{{ref|10|p144|a}}

The initial ascended race has to battle all the other races, struggling to survive their incubation period to become the real ascended.{{ref|15|p171|a}}

''Is the following still in effect? [QUOTE]The initial ascended which have no control over their genetic defects in their weaker physical body but the new generation of humanity that comes through procreation will have accepted the Exodus Humans and are using technology to put their physical bodies to sleep in pods that take care of medical and psychological treatment. This new generation of Earth Humans will not have the biasness that the past Earth Humans had against Exodus humans and that's why they'll be more accepting of technology from Exodus humans.[/QUOTE]'' {{ref|14|p167|a}}

''See also:'' [[#Ascension]]

=== Exodus Humans ===

The Exodus Humans are those humans who left Earth during the Exodus Segment.

The Exodus Humans did make contact with Earth Humans but because of their past actions. They weren't in the best of terms and even then only the Vault Humans actually ever made contact with the Exodus Humans. {{ref|9|p141|e}}

However, the Ascended Humans eventually forgive the Exodus Humans for their actions, the former being benevolent and all.{{ref|9|p141|f}}

== Relic ==

''Note: I'm not sure how this would go... but either the portal mutates them humans, or they don't, but instead draw power from the portal which channels energy through the moon, the sun, or something else like the other worldly beings being the "gods".''{{ref|8|p139|g}}

Lost Hiirgardee technology. [reference required]

''If it's going to involve "enlightenment" (in effect), the relic should be something that would give knowledge, like some sort of altar with writing, ancient scrolls, tablets, etc.'' {{ref|17|p184|a}}

''Maybe we could put it such that it IS a special place but inside there are many Sacred Relics which are actually equipment from the Hiirgardee to test whether the race is the right one to be ascended?'' {{ref|18|p186|a}}

=== Ascension ===

The relic possesses power to transform the beings of inheritance, humans, to be exact, into ascended beings. The ascension is a long process that drags on to a few generations since the ascension to the spiritual form is another step towards evolution. ''I suppose the kind of power the relic endows upon would bring in a super-evolutionary "virus" specifically to humans.''{{ref|19|p188|a}} ''This super-evolutionary "virus" is possibly a DNA computer of some sort.''{{ref|x|p262|a}}

It would be hard for the initial stage of the ascension to progress to the next due to genetic defects of some sort. But people generally do not have genetic defects and start to live longer, making the generations span across a larger period of time.{{ref|19|p188|b}}

''For Human-specific Ascension, See Also:'' [[#Ascended Humans]]

==== Initiation ====

The key event is the finding of the Relic.
This triggers the "superevolutionary virus" among the humans/the people who inherit it. People start to have less and less genetic defects, and thus they start to live longer. Some people instead would experience adverse effects on their system. Defects, so to speak.{{ref|19|p188|c}}

==== Infant ====

This is the next stage toward ascension. The next stage shows the push for purity of form within the physical world. So people get more perfect in their genes. Ethical/racial differences between the humans start to dwindle and diminish. People would start to look more of the same ethnicity, instead of varying ones. They start to live longer still, a few hundred years, to be exact.{{ref|19|p188|d}}

==== Purity of form ====

This is a crucial point in ascension - purity of form - Immortality in the physical realm. This kind of "immortality" is the kind depicted in the Lord of the Rings' elves. They are immortal in the sense that they do not die from old age, but are still bound by the death from mortal wounds. This, however, is the time where people's thoughts about conception and reproduction start to dwindle too. So they start to have a very sharp decline in birth rates, since they live forever.{{ref|11|p154|b}}{{ref|16|p179|a}}{{ref|19|p188|e}}

==== Spiritual detachment ====

This is the point where they go on to the next stage of evolution where people have stretched their limits in the physical realm, and start to evolve in the spiritual realm. This is thus the point where the humans are able to detach their souls from their body to roam about, just like in prey, but the main body must not die. They still require a physical manifestation to be able to exist within this universe.{{ref|19|p188|f}}

==== Spiritual Autonomy ====

The distance between the physical body and the souls gets even further, so their souls become autonomous of their bodies, still requiring the physical body to exist, but exist as another entity. {{ref|12|p156|a}}{{ref|19|p188|g}}

''Possibly, have it like 'The Golden Compass', where the souls are outside their bodies. One entity is unable to live without the other, unless the link between the two is completely severed, then the being begins to degrade and die. However, note that the golden compass also has beings who are semi-severed, such as the witches, whose daemons are able to travel long distances alway from their bodies.'' {{ref|10|p144|b}}{{ref|19|p188|h}}

''The above 'Golden Compass' principal agrees somewhat with Gnaiza's 'split personality' thing with he exception of Gnaiza's 'Two Souls' thing. While the two 'Golden Compass' entities are able to think and act separately, they are essentially one being.'' {{ref|11|p154|a}}

''(Another analogy is like the Holy Trinity of God. For those who don't know, it is God himself existing as 3 seemingly separate entities, but yet as one.)''{{ref|19|p188|i}}

==== Purity in Soul ====

The final stage - full independence from the body. {{ref|19|p188|j}}

This happens in the [[Revelation Segment]] {{ref|16|p179|b}}

''[QUOTE]We could have that the reason why they can become the perfect race is because they left their 'weaker' personalities and quirks and their physical bodies behind. They would also need to keep their physical bodies alive I guess though they would have thought of a way to keep their second 'soul' and body alive and well without it killing itself.[/QUOTE]'' {{ref|12|p156|a}}

''(Unanswered Question) Is there the possibility of some of the Ascended preferring Spiritual Autonomy due to the dual-nature of it?'' [reference required]

=== Size ===
''Would it be like an altar of a huge scale like the portal to the ark in Halo 3, or a small object like a ring, or some artifact that can be hand carried, or something medium size, like an orb of maximum diameter of 24 feet across, that can vary in its size and has a mind of its own?'' {{ref|15|p171|b}}

== Hiirgardee ==

Presumably already ascended beings, possibly already highly advanced. {{ref|17|p184|b}}

Creator of the Prophesies and the Relic.

''See Also:'' [[#Prophesy]], [[#Relic]]

=== Reason for the Relic ===

''This part is still hanging in the air. Afaik, a decision has not yet been made. ~Ketsu''

# Hiirgardee could not take down the Otherworldly Gods (henceforth called OWG) for good and so prophesied that one day a race chosen to ascend will be able to conquer all evil. {{ref|20|p198|a}}
# Hiirgardee uses the relic as a gift for the realm/universe's dominating race to ascend, after which another "test" against the OWG before full ascension. {{ref|21|p202|a}}

== OWG ==
''The OWG and humans are two of the Hiirgardee's students, however this spoils the image of the OWG hence ruining the plot itself, unless utterly concealed from readers carefully.'' {{ref|21|p202|b}}

== Closing statement ==

''Things around here begin to get murky and undecided. I'll stop here and dump my notes. Once decisions are made, I or someone else can edit this article. ~Ketsu''

<nowiki>
Arky: (p193)

My initial idea was that it could be a test from the hiirgardee.
To be able to ascend, it can be the ultimate trial that the race should face:

1) Survive the onslaught of self-destruction from the dark ascension
2) Overcome the otherworldly beings.
3) Claim the throne.

(Random "rules")

So i suppose the portals for the otherworldly beings to enter was planted by the hiirgardee. Perhaps the otherworldly beings are enemies of old, and want to destroy everything hiirgardee.
So the hiirgardee finally decided that for a race to ascend to the next level, they must prove their worth. Defeat all hindrances and "evil", and willing to sacrifice for the good of the universe (though may be a questionable action, FOR THE GREATER GOOD)

Shadowbreak:
Just my opinion but yeah we could use the otherworldly gods such that the Hiirgardee could not take them down for good and so prophesised that one day a race chosen to ascend will be able to conquer all evil.

Arky: (p202 - noted in refs as #21)

So the Hiirgardee's first step was to see whether humans have the potential and capability to withstand against the "mighty" otherwordly gods (lets refer this as OWG).

Then after Hiirgardee's series of tests have proven humans are worthy, it was time for them to receive the gift of ascension.

Perhaps the hiirgardee wanted to see which each dimension/realm's dominating race could be the best and take the crown to ascend.
So, yeah. a competition in essence, for "students"(humans and OWG) to vie for the place as "best student" or something.

Arky: (p208)

So, OWGs are the race for humans to defeat ultimately. Perhaps the portal of the OWGs was an event of the Hiirgardee that they failed to foresee, and to maintain the balance of the universe, the humans must try to rid the universe of the evil OWGs or something along that line...

OWGs are like humans, i guess. Not in the sense that they are humanoid or something like that, but in the sense that there are various factions of people that together, they form a collective of OWGs.

candidate for ascension

Shadowbreak: (p229)
OWGs are the other worldly beings that live on different planes. They've started to take interest in ours as ours has many delicious souls to feast upon. Though they do not actually need to consume souls to sustain them, as long as there is an entity such as a star is adequate enough of energy that will be good enough for sustenace for these creepy beings. However with the hopes that they can get the RELIC, they can ensure that they can continue to exist and also to tinker with it so that they can produce some mighty more delicious souls to consume. MUAHAHAHAHA.

Arky: (p230)

Don't get me wrong here. It's not that i don't want the OWGs to be like beings that require things to survive, i want them to have human-like characteristics, but the dominant characteristics are much enhanced; more intensified. Perhaps the OWG of war could have aggression as his main dominant characteristic and is the epitome of human aggression, that sort of thing. Its just the way they achieve their goals to survive.

And also, because of the stuff that they consume, for the survival of the fittest, so to speak, they are generally seen as more evil. So you see entire star systems getting depleted, and *light bulb* you could use that as the basis for dying stars and why they turn into black holes, and in fact black holes are dimensional portals for the OWGs to enter into this realm, but normal humans and other beings would get crushed like the real blackholes. You get what i mean?

Maybe, it could go like this:
1st age: emergence and dominance of OWGs (in other galaxies... which are not included in this main story, but can develop in the future, perhaps like background info/backstory)
2nd age: massacre of OWGs (in this galaxy. perhaps the humans are the only ones who actually defeated OWGs and drove them out of the system)
3rd age: re-emergence of 1 very powerful OWG (then this is like Sauron vs the whole of Middle-earth)

Shadowbreak: (p245)
I think Ketsu gets the idea and I want the Hiirgardees to know of the existance of the OWGs. It is PIVOTAL that they know there are OWGs. They know that they can defeat em so they leave our galaxy and plant gene seeds in the genetic pool. They send em to many planets and also put relics at the planets they reside hoping that one day these species will be able to achieve victory over OWGs.

Shadowbreak: (p260)

I was thinking of making all life in the universe spawn from the same gene pool where an advanced seeding device would travel from one point to another of the universe dropping potential HUMAN race genes however the rest will be duds and will be instead be other alien races. The Hiirgardees did this because the OWGs swept the entire galaxy after they left the galaxy and to also reduce suspicion to the OWGs that something was up. They also built the relics on all planets which would be easy for the Hiirgardee to accomplish so that if the Human race did land there they could then unlock the special gene seed and ascend.

Shadowbreak: (p267)

So in other words the master plan for the Hiirgardee was that, 1)Leave human gene seed on Earth that would destroy the OWGs in the future 2)Use aliens to defend the Humans though by no means influencing them to do so and 3)Ensure the peace of the galaxy through the ascension of Humans which would act as a governing race for the Galaxy 4)(in future conworld development) Hiirgardee come back to live in our galaxy once again.

[Quote]
Might me my bad on this, but did the Hiiirgardee alreadly expect the humans to evolve into what they are, and to get the seed?[/Quote]

Yes, they actually planned it all in the start but that's privilege only the creators like us know. Additionally, the Hiirgardee did not expect the humans to become 'ready' for the relics until more years to come however due to the Sun's extreme radiation, it accelerated the plan.

''~Ketsu: Scattering my comments over this article, because I'm lazy-ish. Will also make minor edits for readability/ my crap's in italics~''

''Forum Topic: [http://worblamation.forumcity.com/viewtopic.php?t=17 (t=17)]''

ConPlanet: Tegos

STATUS: PENDING DISCUSSION

[[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]] 12:05, 3 August 2007 (EDT)
[[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]] 12:43, 19 August 2007 (EDT)

Tegos is the Homeworld to the Arkyonitan civilisation. The Arkyonitan civilisation comprises of enclaves of Exgetilians, with majority of the common people are of the Aesladic race. The Arkyonitans are, as they call it, "Fornory tes co Arkyonite", the people of the Arkyonite. They are a dominantly devout society that follow the organised religion of the Arkance, or the Way (of the Arkyonite).

Other than being a devout society, the Arkyonitans are renowned for being magnanimous and caring as a whole society in general. They are also known to be one of the brightest minds of the universe and thus, one of the most technologically advanced societies. This is uncommon for most devout races as usually, either the technological or the religious growth would be very much hindered due to the conflicting ideologies and values.

This problem of conflicting values has so far always been solved by the reason:
"The Arkyonite (their god) gave us the power to change and the power to make our own choices! Why should we be constricted because a few of us think that it is wrong? If the Arkyonite granted us the power to be able to do so, we wouldn't be playing as the gods themselves! Even though we may have the power to sin, he also gave us the power to follow the Arkane Commandments. If we were to be denied of this growth and improvement but not stated as one of the deadly sins." ''~Ketsu: Very last bit of this sentence does not make sense.~''

== Hierarchical Castes of the Arkyonitan ==
The Arkyonitans follow a rather rigid hierarchical caste system, mostly religious. However, everyone is allowed to mix with members of the other castes, regardless of superiority. There is one thing that is stringent though, is that if a member of a lower caste offends a member of higher caste, the latter has every right to punish the lower caste. Not obsessively though, because after all, everyone is a creation of the Arkyonite (their god). The mixing of social castes has only one exception, and that is with the exiles. However, this social hierarchy system is heavily dependent on the kind of position you hold and of what importance you have in the whole society, whcih ultimately reflects on how intelligent you are. Generally, higher caste Arkyonitans are much more intelligent than the lower castes.

''
* Members of castes can mix freely with one another.
** Exception: The Exile
* A member of higher caste can punish a member of lower caste if the latter offends the former.
** However, not obsessively, as everyone are creations of the Arkyonite.
* Members of a higher caste are generally more intelligent than those of lower caste.
* Caste heavily depends on:
*# The position one holds
*# Importance in the society
*# And therefore to a lesser extent, intelligence.
''
''~Ketsu: This is so that the reader can read the larger bullets and only read the smaller bullets if they want further information~''

Inter-caste marriages are also seen within the society itself. Usually, when this happens, the person of the higher caste would drop down a caste (or a few, in some cases) to match their partners' caste. There would of course be exceptions too though. If the member lower caste proves his worth to be in a higher caste, showing that he is intelligent enough for example, that person might be able to ascend to the higher caste to match his partners' caste.

The reason why if a person would usually descend in caste when he marries one of a lower caste all boils down to the gene pool. Essentially, members of the higher caste have a more perfect gene pool than those of the lower castes. Hence, to prevent the risk of gene contamination of not-so-perfect genes in the higher castes' gene pool, the person has to descend to his partner's caste, because his offspring has a chance of having not so-perfect-genes, which belong to that caste. Thus, in order for the member of the higher caste to remain in his caste when he marries one of a lower caste, the lower caste member has to prove his worth, to show that he is suited to be in this caste. That is probably the only way that one has a chance of breaking the cycle of low caste relatives, to ascend to another higher caste.

''
* Marriage to a member of lower caste demotes you to that caste
** Exception: If he/she is able to prove his worth for the higher caste (example, via intelligence), there is a possibility of ascension.
** Reasons for this:
*** Members of higher caste have a more perfect gene pool that those of lower castes.
*** Prevent risk of gene contamination due to aforementioned not-so-perfect genes.
''

=== The Keyakh ===

This is essentially the prophetic and priest caste of the whole society. They are the most highly regarded of all castes as they hold the greatest religious value and are seen to be blessed by Arkyonite of all castes.
Faith is key

=== The Sayokh Acadamies===

Here are found the professors/teaching Arkyonitans. They are highly regarded as they pass on their knowledge, as well as help with research and various stuff.
Intelligence is key

=== The Mezakh Balance===

The hand of Justice forms another Hierarchial caste.
Their Ability to Judge is key

=== The Arkhantine Legion===

This is the soldier/warrior caste. Imbued with the power to change the tide of battles and political pressuring. To guard and protect the civilisation from unclean filth to the soul. Arkhantine is the Warrior Manifestation of Arkyonite.

An Arkyonitan from the Arkhantine Caste belongs to one of the Chapters of the Legion, where each has its own system of Hierarchy. Valiance is their key.

====Warrior Templars====
Crusaders, at the very least. Conquering lands (and seas) in the name of Arkyonite, "FOR THE ARKANCE!" as they cry out.

''~Ketsu: Too many layers make reading difficult. Try to keep to a maximum of level 3 (four '='s) ~''
* '''Templar Knights''': Elite and veteran warrior templars, who have proven worthy for the Templar Knighthood.

====Custodians====
Guards and keepers of the law and civilization. They also act like the policemen of the race.

* '''Arkhantine Honour Guard''': Guards and keepers of the Temples of Arkyonite

====Death Angels====
A Specialized Chapter of the Arkhantine Legion. They deal death to those unworthy of the Arkance, enemies of the Arkance, and the like. The Death Angels had played a significant role in the Arkhantine crusade IV, after the Warrior Templars had failed the crusade which had turned on the crusaders themselves. They were the ones who dealt the hammerhand of Arkyonite on Sladaakh's Minions.
They are the only chapter of the Arkhantine Legion that are exclusive only to the Exgetilians, for they forever bear the grudge against the Aesladae, the ones who had fallen from the Arkance and followed Sladaakh.

* '''The Order of Hammerhand''': Blessed by the hammerhand of Arkyonite, they are essentially the daemon hunters of the Legion
* '''The Order of Culticure''': They hunt down cultists and those who oppose the Arkance in every aspect of it.

''~Ketsu: If you really need to expand on a section but have reaches level limits, this either means that you have to 1) reorganize the text, 2) break the rule, or 3) create a new article. You can create new articles are subpages of this article for convinence, if you want.~''

====Space Monkeys====
A Chapter of the Arkhantine Legion who specialise in crafts and machines. They are by far the most technologically advanced chapter of the Legion. Basically, they are the heavy support of the Legion.

Being called space monkeys seem to be rather of a paradox. Monkeys are mammals, Exgetilians and Aesladae are birds. Their imfamous tactic is to fly above the ranks of ground troops and drop "coconut bombs" to the enemies' demise. The space monkeys are the most notable legends in creature flight. They possess immense agility in flight, and seem to be able to dodge even the nigh impossible speed of bullets.

* '''Alpha Monkeys''': Legions of machines are rampant in squads.
* '''Omega Monkeys''': These are the finishers of any conflict. If they must, they will use apocalypse class weapons just to deal the "ultimatum"

===The Hesaakhram Architecture===
Workers, Engineers and Architects of the Race.
Resourcefulness is key

=== The Exiles and The Outcastes ===

These come from those who have:

* disobeyed direct orders from the High Council of the Enclave itself;
* broken one of the few fatal taboos/sins
* been considered as 'unclean' or 'beyond remedy'
* dabbled with the occult
* chosen the path of self exile
* done any combination of the above
* been banished from the main society

''~Ketsu: Capitalization is unnecessary =P try underlining if you want to make generalizations, or bolding for an important point, italics for additional information, and strikethrough for outdated but still relevant information.~''

Being exiles of the race is key, who believe that they are a lost cause, or wrongly placed in this caste.
Though most who are in this unfortunate caste strive to prove their worth in society and to be placed in one of the castes again.
Contradictory actions carried out on them include experimentation, where any new technology may be tested on these outcastes before actually being used on the main population, like genetic experimentation; be sent as death vanguards, 1st to die, but those who survive may be inducted into the Arkhantine Legion.

==Government of the Enclave==

=== The High Council of the Enclave ===

This is the highest of any of the social hierarchies of the Arkyonitans.

The High Council of Enclaves consist of 3 popes from each of the 3 main branches of organization: Technology, Arkance and Law. They are: The Professor, The Prophet and the Prosecutor. The prophet is ranked the highest of the 3 because it is, after all, a devout society where it is only natural that the pope of the religion should be the head of the civilization.

The 3 popes are traditionally of only Exgetilian races. There are however, exceptions found within the archives of historical sources, where at least 1 Aeslada have actually risen to the power of a pope.

==Races of Arkyonitan==

It is not known whether the Exgetilians or the even the Aesladae are distant cousins of dragons the same way Draconians - ones of dragon born - are to them, the dragons. For according to human sources, birds have been derived from reptiles. Since dragons are classified under reptiles, and Exgetilians and Aesladae are classified as birds, it is assumed that Exgetilians and Aesladae are long lost cousins of the dragons.

Even their personalities match dragons in a such striking way. They are also rapacious, arrogant and deadly, but are also majestic, awesome and manificent
=== The Exgetilians ===

They are essentially the brains of the race.

The Exgetilians play a mostly prophetic role in the Arkance. As a result, most of the Exgetilians are of the upper class of the social hierarchy.

The Exgetilians are a race of genetic purity. Because of that, Exgetilians, on an average, outlive at least 3 generations of the Aesladic population. The air of arrogance they carry around with them is thus, understandable. To see one live, bear children, die, and further see their children bear their own children and die, one would naturally feel a sense of superiority over the other race.

=== The Aesladae ===

The brawn of the race

The Aeslada play a mostly militant role in the Arkance. Their goal is to protect, preserve and uphold the Arkance's ideals, as well as the high council of the Enclave

==The History of the Arkyonitans==
The history of the Arkyonitans is marked by Ages that signify each stage of development of the civilization as a whole. However, the Arkyonitans have not always been united under one Conclave as it is now. It was only in the Age of Mystic that the Arkyonitan races had split, each following their own beliefs, one on the path of Sladaakh, the other on the path of Arkyonite. As the name of the civilization suggested, the path of the Arkyonite is the true path. Sladaakh is a Greater Daemon from the Outlands that was out to gain ultimate dominance over the Arkyonitan civilization. As a result of this split in the Age of Mystic, the belief in each deity triggered an evolutionary change in the core genus of the Arkyonitan race. Thus formed the Exgetilians, under the hand of Arkyonite, and the Aesladae, under the horns of Sladaakh.

===The Prehistoric Age===

===The Age of Mystic===

====Achromatic Ascension====

This is the time of great trials for the metallic Arkyonitans to rise up against their chromatic overlords.
Chomatic Arkyonitans are what we know today as the Aesladae. Metallic Arkyonitans, on the other hand, are what we know today as the Exgetilians. It was once believed that metallic Arkyonitans were not the true and pure breed of Arkyonitans and thought to be evil.

In actual fact, it was the chromatic Arkyonitans who were scared of the metallic arkyonitans for they saw power greater than theirs in the metallic breed. Hence the oppression of the metallic breed.

Eventually, it was the sheer valiance and guile of the metallic breed that prevailed, though they were outnumbered nearly 500 to 1. In this seemingly impossible odds, it can thus be seen the greatness of power in metallic kind. Perhaps it was only partly because the metallic kind were stronger. There were many fatal flaws in the chromatic order that lead to the eventual defeat of the chromatic kind.

The metallic kind did not really fight the chromatics on huge, open-scaled battlefields, but rather act more as carefully disguised assassins blended with the general population, seeking loopholes in the chromatic order to kill key figures of the chromatic order. The defeat of the chromatics thus ensued.

===The Dark Age I===

This is where the once dominant Aesladae attempted to regain their fallen pride. This age is marked by countless battles of conquest by the Aesladae on the Exgetilian lands.

===The Dark Age II===

After the Aesladae finally cooled from the seemingly endless battles fought on Tegorian lands, it was now time for Exgetilians to exact their revenge in kind.

===The Age of Reason===
This was a time where peace seemed to thrive. Everybody seemed to be on peaceful terms with each other, with only minor conflicts occured. It was an age where order finally seemed to last. This was also where the roots of the Arkance seemed to be from. With the emergence of good also comes the emergence of evil. The emergence of Arkyonite also emerged the Daemons of Sladaakh.

It was the time where rational reasoning ruled the lands. Where each tried to prove that each religion was true by peaceful means too.

===The Age of Doubt===
The roots of the Arkyonitans was a rather grim battle between good an evil - an armageddon - to be exact.

It was the last battle signaling the end of the Age of Doubt, ushering in the Age of Truth, before Arkyonitans could colonise other planets, pretty much like how we are now, seeing colonising Mars as plausible, but yet still impossible for us.

====The Arkhantine Crusade IV - The end of the Age of Doubt====

''~Ketsu: This is a case where large chunks of paragraphs are good, because points don't tell stories well. Points are more for information and facts.~''

The fourth Arkhantine Crusade began during the 2nd millenia of the Age of Doubt, as recorded in the archives. The fourth Arkhantine Crusade had been the bloodiest one ever recorded in the long history of the Arkhantine, the militant wings of the Arkanis ServittÃ© (Servants of the Arkance). Templars, you may call them. The fourth Arkhantine Crusade was so called the final phase the "Maximus Exsequor", a great execution, avenging and punishment of the followers of Sladaakh, (later appearing as one of the OWGs that appear in the main arc of the story) as the final phase of purification to be done, to rid the world of the Daemon, Sladaakh.

Originally, there were 2 distinct factions dominating the lands of Tegos - the Exgetilians and the Aesladae. Both of which were at extreme ends of their beliefs. For countless millenia, the 2 factions saw no end to their disagreements. For one, the Exgetilians believed, rather, knew that Arkyonite is a true god, from the celestial planes, and that Sladaakh was in fact a daemon from the Outlands, out to corrupt the entirety of the Tegorian world. On the other hand, the Aesladae believed that Sladaakh was the true god and Arkyonite was the false one. As a result, distinct differences grew into the two factions, evolving the original genus race of the Arkyonitans into 2 nearly separate races, though they still share the same base characteristics. As a result, Exgetilians generally outlive 3 generations of Aesladae. Subsequently, this gave Exgetilians an air of arrogance in the presence of Aesladae. To be able to see 3 generations pass, with each one being born and die with the passing of time, Exgetilians sure have reason to feel superior about.

The fourth Arkhantine Crusade was the most unique crusade ever recorded in the history. It is the key milestone in the entire history of the Arkyonitans. Sladaakh's minions and spawns were, at one point of the crusade, somehow summoned by the Aesladic clerics, and it turned the tide of battle, becoming not the fourth Arkhantine Crusade, but the Damnation Crusade of Sladaakh. At that point, the Aesladae knew they had fallen into the hands of Sladaakh, but it was too late. Corruption of the Aesladic population had set in so deeply that only few strong-willed could keep their sanity. Those who could all defected and went into exile. Sladaakh's legions pushed the Exgetilian forces past the final Arkhantine defense perimeter. It was then when the summoning of Sladaakh itself was initiated. Sladaakh's summoning required a thousand Aesladic sacrifices, which tragically came to be. A thousand sacrifices were thus made in preparation for the final phase of the summoning. It was thought that all hope was lost. Even if the Arkanis ServittÃ© decided to call the Arkyonite into the world, a single mistake could result in an unstable rift within the space-time continuum. Celestial energies from the celestial plane would spill out and engulf the planet itself, destroying it, and even the entirety of the system itself.

Finally, when the Arkanis ServittÃ© found out about the materialization of Sladaakh, they decided to take the chance. It was better that Sladaakh would be slain in the calling of the Arkyonite. At that time, the thought of the act of calling of a god down was unthinkable. (Just like how we would think if we were to summon gods. If you compare summoning demons, it seems more... plausible than the summoning of gods) By Arkyonite's grace, everything went smoothly without a hitch. The Hammerhand of Arkyonite came down upon Legions of Sladaakh's forces, and eventually stopping the final phase of Sladaakh's summoning. Alas, the war had been won. Sladaakh was believed to have been caught somewhere in the void in transit from the Outlands to the Material Plane, our world, and assumed to be destroyed. It was beyond the knowing of even the highest of the Arkanis ServittÃ©.

Apart from the many tragedies that result from the Armegeddon, the conflict gave rise to a new order, united under one Conclave. The severing of Sladaakh's hold on the world and the damnation to the void marked the end of the Age of Doubt, and ushered in the new age, the Age of Truth. It was then that the Arkyonite's power was apparent, and witnessed for all to see. Even the Aesladae were moved by it. Eventually, the remnants of Sladaakh's followers were purged from the world.

Thus began the Age of Truth, a time of truth and reconciliation for Aesladae and the Arkanis ServittÃ©, followers of the Arkance, the Exgetilians, as well as the eventual integration of Aesladae into the Exgetilian society as a whole, called the Arkyonitan, people of the Arkyonite.

// Added ConPlanet: Eternia to category ConPlanets. Edit by [[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]] 07:10, 25 March 2008 (EST)

== Humanoid races of Eternia ==

=== The Menars ===
The main and most common species that have a humanoid form and thinking. About 70% to 75% of the humanoid population on Eternia is made up of Menars.They speak Neroleain, a language derived from the sounds made by energies of the planet Eternia itself. Using a Energy-Gathering system called "The garden of Eden" in the core of their huge metropolian city, an endless amount of power is being channeled into their daily lives. At the expense of draining the energies of their planet.
Overexposure to the Primal Energies of the planet can cause them to be heavily reliant on the power, forming a sort of addiction. A prolonged lack of the energies cause them to degenerate into a more primitive lifeform.
Recently the Menars have been able to wield the magic arts of the plant with more ease due to improvement in genetics technology, though the technology is still in it's infant stages. Menars tend to live up to a hundred years of age unmodified, up to two hundred if modified by the infant technology.

'''Technology'''
The Menars are proficient in the use of Shielding technology, able to shield themselves from most types of harm, physical or magical. The Dome epitomises this technology, where it is nearly impossible to penetrate. However, they are not as skilled in the other forms of technology, such as construction and design.
-Menars employ a form of shielding based on the energies of the crystals on the Raid. By manipulating the elements themselves, they further enchance their powers of shielding, creating the ability of protection and partial regeneration nearly effortlessly. Drawbacks to this technology is their slightly lower-classed offense systems, which casue their fights to be long and drawn out.

=== The Raid ===
A small tribe of Meanars that further evolved, speak a "voice on the wind" similar to telaphay.
They are a very calm and quiet nature, but can rise up to fight when threatened. Their reliance on the Primal Energies of the planet is diminished due to the one crystal shard that grow on their bodies, forming a sort of "rechargeable-and-portable-energy-source".
With the one small crystal shard growing on their body,varying per Raid,(and also the reason for their exile),
they have access to their powers through the use of these shards and their link to the Primal Energies,commonly through manifestation of the elements, or in rare cases of the elements on the self.Although the best users of the Primal Energies, when a Raid's shard is cracked their ability to use their powers is weakened or dangerously unpredictable. When the shard is shattered, the raid will often die, as it is the most important part of their body. To date there has only been one raid that has survived the shattering of his shard, however he has disappeared into the Menar's society. His current status is unconfirmed.
Raid who have mastered the use of their crystal shard, a very rare case only seen once in a generation, are able to either materialise their crystal into a weapon or materalise themselves into a weapon on another's body. Such acts are extremely taxing on the user's mind and is almost impossible to upkeep for more than two minutes, although combat poweress and senses are sharpened to a point where it is perfect. Due to their connection with the Primal Energies, they barely feel the effects of age on their bodies, allowing them to live for a very long time.
Raid who have travelled out of Eternia, in any manner, has a chance to attune to the energies of the universe, allowing them to function similar to how they are on Eternia, however the elemental composition of their surroundings the greatly dulled and is thus difficult to get used to. As a result most Raid prefer to stay in Eternia.

'''Technology'''
Although they employ next to no advanced mechanical technology, simple forms such as 90% of whats on Earth can be easily accessed by them.

=== The Venolians ===
A cat-like variation of the Menars, they make up about 5% of the humanoid population. Communicating through use of body gestures and a myraid of snarls, hisses and growls, they surprisingly share information very well. Venolians form clans among themselves, similar to a wolf pack. Highly instinctive and full of wanderlust, they are commonly found in the mystic forest,wandering about in its deep and extensive regions and live on hunting wild species for food. A lack of a physical connection to the Primal Energies of Eternia prevent them from working any form of the energy. Venolians have been seen with the Raid, however no specific bond has been formed between the two races. It is also uncertain when the Venolians began to exist.

=== Languages Used ===
There are three languages used by the humanoid lifeforms of Eternia, Nerolain of the Menars, "Voice of the wind" of the Raid and the animalish-actions of the Venolians. Each of them hold similarities and differences, due to the passage of time and the culture. However due to all of them descending from an ancient,universal language, they hold strangely similar quirks.

==The Primal Energies==
The Primal Energies of Eternia are split into six basic elements, namely Fire,Water,Wind,Earth,Celestial and Cosmic. Constantly created through an unknown means at the core of the planet, these energies are scattered and spread over the planet in natural currents of power.The energies, when first created, its pure and dangerously consuming.The Great Tree of Avalon first absorbs the newly-created energy before spreading it out as currents across the planet, reducing the danger of the energies as well as resulting in its huge size. They can be used in conjunction with another,alone or with different combinations,depending on the skills of the chanter.Mixing different elements is a very common and sterotypical practice of casters, however the skill that one can use depends of oneself. Living and non-living beings may store these energies in personal reservoirs of power, easily manipulated and transferred. Some beings may have bigger reservoirs than others, race nor lineage do not affect the percentage of energy the being or object can absorb.
=== Fire ===
Seen as the energies of life, fire-users tend to be very active,passionate,optimistic and bubbly, but at times impulsive and tempermental.They also tend to have more willpower than other users of the magic arts. Common skills in the art of fire include but are not limited to: Light,Combustion and Explosion,Heat gain/loss.
=== Water ===
Seen as the energies of form and shape, water users tend to be fluent,intutive and adaptive, at the expense of being repetitive and relentless.Common skills in the art of water include but are not limited to: Shapeshifting,Cellular Regeneration,Transformation.
=== Wind ===
Seen as the energies of reconnaissance, wind users tend to be nimble,light-hearted and care-free.However being aloof and daydreaming often tend to cut them off from others.Winds users tend to be swift and agile, either mentally, physically, or both.Common skills in the art of wind include but are not limited to:Conjuration,Windwhispering,Blinking
=== Earth ===
Seen as the energies of preservation, earth users tend to be protective and serene,ancient,even naive.while being stubborn and resistant.Common skills in the art of earth include but are not limited to:Healing,Translation,Protection
=== Celestial ===
Seen as the energies of solar and lunar happenings, celestial users tend to be prophetical and all-knowing, which may sometimes annoy others.The Celestial arts are discovered after the Raid landed of the Cresent Isles, where the solar and lunar passings awakened a new type of energy in some of their crystal shards.Common skills include but are not limited to:Day/Night alteration,Gravity,Beguiling.
=== Cosmic ===
Seen as the energies of the universe, cosmic force users tend to be vast and deep.Very little is know about this newly discovered element, although time and space is commonly altered by cosmic users.

=== Combinations of Elements, Examples ===
Examples of the common combinations of elements will be posted here, although greater men need no manual to act. Skills with a bracket require a being skilled in the element to use, unless he or she has a very high energy pool to waste.

-Bullets of Stone.
By using the element of earth, in the form of a rock, the user can use water to sharpen the rock to become extremely sharp, which can be fired with the help of wind. Further refinement with fire then creates bullets with a small explosive proximity.
-Forging (Earth)
By drawing earth in it's purer forms,the caster can create metal by using fire to melt the more common metals found. Using wind to blow away the finer and unwanted materials, then using minor cosmic to multiply the amount of material found, the caster can forge an object to his liking, which can be preserved with the help of cooling by water or wind.
-Lunar Fire(Fire)
Using a normal flame, fire users can use the complete opposite of the element, frozen water, to mix with the normal flame. By constantly keeping the flame going, the flame can be attributed with the frozen status, creating an effect of burn and freeze at once. Using the blessing of celestial powers, specifically the lunar half, the caster can then apply moonlight to the flame, creating a flame that appears not to burn, confusing the enemy.
-Mending of body
By using the water to wash off impure substances in the wound, as well as healing it at the same time,healers often apply the healing powers of the earth element, specifically plants, to restore and enhance the wounded flesh, restoring it to normal status.

== Geology of Eternia ==
Planet Eternia is shaped like an upright letter six, or a snail-shaped cam. The top of the planet, where gravity is the lowest, is the only source of which water flows down to the rest of Eternia. It also houses the "Great tree of Avalon", where its huge towering presence shades the planet from receiving too much of the sun's rays. The bottom of the planet which constantly snows due to the lack of sunlight, houses a huge whirlpool, is where the sunken city of Aryoquan is rumored to be located. However the sheer power of the whirlpool is enough to deter many Humanoids and Creatures alike, Aryoquan still remains a rumor.
[http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s110/Tyclian/DSC07368.jpg]
=== The Great Tree of Avalon ===
The Great Tree, towering above the planet like a huge parabola, absorbs energies created within the core of the planet with its garguantuan roots, showering them out every night.It has five main roots and countless minor ones, to this extent the Venolians call the Great Tree a claw of an omnipotent creature.The tree also sheds a leaf whenever an infant is born, when that one leaf reaches the infant it is able to see and sense the currents of energies that course through the planet. If the leaf is unable to reach the infant before it comes 1 year of age, the infant would be unable to detect the currents of energies at all and would need exterior assistance if it wishes to do so. The Raid make a pligrimage to the tree every 64 moonrises, they believe that that was the original number of Raid that were originally cast out due to their crystal shards, thus visiting the tree and wishing for a safe and bright future.

=== Aryoquan ===
The city rumored to hold vast knowledge on the nature of the planet, as well as to hold a doorway to the core of the planet. This once-great empire was blasted under the ocean after an expedition team opened the doorway to the core of the planet. The doorway, believed to still be open, causes the enormous whirlpool to exist above the undersea city. Yet after the countless years that have passed after the Ancient-Menar left the place, it is uncertain if the city still exists. One this is for sure though, if it does exist, the city could bless a being to become as powerful as a god, for the doorway to the core of the planet is situated there.

=== The Cresent Isles ===
The Cresent Isles, home to the Raid, is where they found themselves washed up against after they and the Ancient-Menars split up after the blasting of Aryoquan. The Isles are made up of a main island, and four outlying islands. The main island is home to most of the population, while the outlying islands serve different purposes. From the cresent isles is also where one may see a strangely beautiful scene, where four ancient creatures meet each other every thousand years.

=== The Dome ===
Home to the ever-technologically advanced Menars, the dome is where the Menars live. Stretching up to several hundred kilometers wide in diameter, the dome is enormously huge and is able to support the lifestyle of the Menars. At the middle of the dome is where is Garden of Eden is located, the Menars made a spire to drain some of the primal energies of the planet from its core to power their great city, similar to the Great Tree of Avalon. The dome itself is made up of a highly reflective and resistant form of energy (displaying the technological skills of the Menar), it is nearly impossible to breach, as a cost of requiring a huge amount of power to mantain. Thus the dome is usually kept at less than 10% of is optimal power, to prevent over-draining of the planet's energy. The waste materials produced by the Menars are also cast out at a location near the dome; a huge, disease-ridden swamp has spawned as a result.

=== The Mystic Forest ===
A huge and magical forest that occupies most of the planet,beginning at one of the roots of the great tree, the mystic forest is largely unexplored and is home to a wide variety of magical creatures. Spanning for miles and miles, the mystic forest is nearly impossible to fully chart and explore. It is also home to the Venolians, many of their clans are found wandering about in the deep sections of the forest, where they may or may not begin to finally attune to the energies of the planet.

== Storyline of Eternia, Events. ==
The history of Eternia can be traced to the city of Aryoquan, where both Menars and Raid lived together, to the current date. This section will thus be large and extensive, as the events can further be broken to smaller parts.

The Isles are made up of a main island, and four outlying islands. The main island is home to most of the population, while the outlying islands serve different purposes. From the cresent isles is also where one may see a strangely beautiful scene, where four ancient creatures meet each other every thousand years.

=== The Dome ===
Home to the ever-technologically advanced Menars, the dome is where the Menars live. Stretching up to several hundred kilometers wide in diameter, the dome is enormously huge and is able to support the lifestyle of the Menars. At the middle of the dome is where is Garden of Eden is located, the Menars made a spire to drain some of the primal energies of the planet from its core to power their great city, similar to the Great Tree of Avalon. The dome itself is made up of a highly reflective and resistant form of energy (displaying the technological skills of the Menar), it is nearly impossible to breach, as a cost of requiring a huge amount of power to mantain. Thus the dome is usually kept at less than 10% of is optimal power, to prevent over-draining of the planet's energy. The waste materials produced by the Menars are also cast out at a location near the dome; a huge, disease-ridden swamp has spawned as a result.

=== The Mystic Forest ===
A huge and magical forest that occupies most of the planet,beginning at one of the roots of the great tree, the mystic forest is largely unexplored and is home to a wide variety of magical creatures. Spanning for miles and miles, the mystic forest is nearly impossible to fully chart and explore. It is also home to the Venolians, many of their clans are found wandering about in the deep sections of the forest, where they may or may not begin to finally attune to the energies of the planet.

== Storyline of Eternia, Events. ==
The history of Eternia can be traced to the city of Aryoquan, where both Menars and Raid lived together, to the current date. This section will thus be large and extensive, as the events can further be broken to smaller parts.

==Introduction==

This Wiki is dedicated for the ConWorlding of project Worblamation, by the team of Worblamation. It is created using the fertile imaginations of the Team's members.

The project Worblamation has an ultimate goal: to create a ConWorld with depth, consistency, beauty and intricacy that can be found in J. R. R. Tolkien's 'Middle-Earth'; which was also what inspired this project. As a Conworld is a beautiful as it would be, it is as difficult to make.

Ultimately, we are just out to have fun in the midst of creating this universe.
Future intentions to create games out of this are unknown, but we are in the midst of playing something what we call "Sim Universe".
After "Sim Universe" we carry on to play "Sim Universe: at War" to signify the various expansions of various empires and races and contact between the races.

There are times where we would play d20 RPG modes or even the table-top war games. This is just simulation of wars, adventures and events that might take place in the timeline of the whole conworld.

We are determined to create an alternative reality with a variety of lifeforms and cultures, ultimately a whole universe in essence. Wait, wouldn't that make this ConWorld, ConUniverse? or better still, ConVerse! =)

==History==
//a short history of ConWorld.Worblamation

This project was launched in June, 2007. It originally started off as a small minute seed in a small little corner of Daniel's ([[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]]) brain. Eventually, it sprouted and sparked into what it has become today.

Along the way, the Team of Worblamation was formed. Recruiting a group of ConArtists(not to be confused with con-artists!), Worblamation project wouldn't be what it would be today, thanks to:

* Alexander([[User:Ketsu|Ketsu]])
* Azri ([[User:Aajizut|Aajizut]]) *Officially Withdrawn*
* Joel ([[User:Izuut|Izuut]])
* Kai Wei ([[User:Rheylakie|Rheylakie]])
* Joe ([[User:Gnaizda|Gnaizda]])

==ConWorld Forum==
Why not join in on our forums to discuss more or add more substance into our humble creation at this [http://worblamation.forumcity.com/index.php?sid=eef8e03a3b12f1dae17cb72101ea6b53 link].

'''Wikipages for forum topics:'''
* [[Forum:Factions_within_the_alien_races_discussion]] - This has basically become an overview of part of the plot.

==Development of Plot==

'''//There are some proposed changes to the Plot Development, where the various segments are modified... Refer to the ConWorld forums for more info. [[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]] 03:33, 6 April 2008 (EDT)'''

There are various segments in this epic tale of the revelational Techno-magi.

'''Post-Modern Segment''':
It all starts off with a World similar to Earth, with a reality similar to ours, and a Universe similar to ours. After post-modern technology allowed us humans to be able to colonise planets in our solar system, it was time to find ways and found whole technologies to colonise other planets within our Solar System.

'''The Great Rapture Segment''':
Humanity finds the means and technology through an alien ship that had crashed on Earth (or any other planet, like Mars.) in the past to venture further into the deep wonders of space and they create the Mothership(name still in discussion) which they plan to use to colonise the next promising solar system, Alpha Centauri. However, due to a foolish accident conducted on the Sun which causes the Sun to accelerate its life span causing it to become a Red Giant sooner then expected. With this the Mothership's development was accelerated and The Great Plan was conducted in secret to selective choose who to bring along on the Exodus.

'''Exodus Segment''':
In essence, as the word "Exodus" means ''the great journey''(or similar), this is talking about the part where humans colonize many other systems and migrate there, forming various factions and alliances. Alien races are discovered by the humans and come into the story as 2 Mega-factions comprised of different planet races that are in disagreement as to the fate of planet Earth due to a prophesy. The factions within the mega-factions are also not totally allied with one another but are joining due to convenience or are being extorted. This is also where the High-Tech conflict would occur.

'''Apocalypse Segment''':
Oh no, did you hear Apocalypse? Oh yes, you did. This segment of the story portrays the plight of Humans left on Earth. With the constant radiation blasting the wildlife are exposed to, plants, animals and Humans start to mutate and 3 major camps emerge from the radioactive ashes of the battlefield. The Vaults, the Mutants and the Fraternity of Steel who are at war with one another. The Vaults are attacked by raids from the Fraternity of Steel which crack their underground vaults and pillage their technologies as they see technology as a mystical force and A.I. to be a God. The Mutants are comprised of mutated humans that are neither in the Vaults or in the Fraternity of Steel and instead were the majority of people that had no proper shelter against the radiation. Strangely, they mirror Humanity's Fantasy creatures but slightly different.

Nobody from other systems tried colonising back the Homeworld of Earth for fear that the anomalies in the system might be detrimental to both the ship and humans, or that the humans might become all-powerful and turn back onto the rest of the human race.

'''Regenesis Segment''':
Millenia passed, human survivors of Apocalypse have evolved. Magic appears. etc etc etc. This is one part that is VERY unclear and vague currently. There are just so many different variations that are so possible. As the name suggests, this is a new beginning, except very much like a "lord of the rings" part.

(splice Starcraft, Lord of the Rings, Warcraft III ...etc. in here)

'''Armageddon Segment''':
Old Humans decided to recolonise Earth. But found that it already have people. Imagine this segment as Magic vs Technology kind of thing.

Very very complicated storyline for this part. But just take it that nobody wins, and alot of people would be involved, parallel universes, and other weird stuff. You know... like the recent block in Magic: the Gathering. different planes and stuff...

'''Revelation Segment''':
Somehow, a peace treaty is formed. Council of the Techno-magi formed. Other forms of conflict occur.
Nothing much to elaborate.

END OF STORY!
or perhaps more continuation... =D

ConPlanet:Tegos

2008-06-08T13:10:46Z

Ketsu: Commenting Stuff ~Ketsu~

''~Ketsu: Scattering my comments over this article, because I'm lazy-ish. Will also make minor edits for readability/ my crap's in italics~''

ConPlanet: Tegos

STATUS: PENDING DISCUSSION

[[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]] 12:05, 3 August 2007 (EDT)
[[User:Arkyonite|Arkyonite]] 12:43, 19 August 2007 (EDT)

Tegos is the Homeworld to the Arkyonitan civilisation. The Arkyonitan civilisation comprises of enclaves of Exgetilians, with majority of the common people are of the Aesladic race. The Arkyonitans are, as they call it, "Fornory tes co Arkyonite", the people of the Arkyonite. They are a dominantly devout society that follow the organised religion of the Arkance, or the Way (of the Arkyonite).

Other than being a devout society, the Arkyonitans are renowned for being magnanimous and caring as a whole society in general. They are also known to be one of the brightest minds of the universe and thus, one of the most technologically advanced societies. This is uncommon for most devout races as usually, either the technological or the religious growth would be very much hindered due to the conflicting ideologies and values.

This problem of conflicting values has so far always been solved by the reason:
"The Arkyonite (their god) gave us the power to change and the power to make our own choices! Why should we be constricted because a few of us think that it is wrong? If the Arkyonite granted us the power to be able to do so, we wouldn't be playing as the gods themselves! Even though we may have the power to sin, he also gave us the power to follow the Arkane Commandments. If we were to be denied of this growth and improvement but not stated as one of the deadly sins." ''~Ketsu: Very last bit of this sentence does not make sense.~''

== Hierarchical Castes of the Arkyonitan ==
The Arkyonitans follow a rather rigid hierarchical caste system, mostly religious. However, everyone is allowed to mix with members of the other castes, regardless of superiority. There is one thing that is stringent though, is that if a member of a lower caste offends a member of higher caste, the latter has every right to punish the lower caste. Not obsessively though, because after all, everyone is a creation of the Arkyonite (their god). The mixing of social castes has only one exception, and that is with the exiles. However, this social hierarchy system is heavily dependent on the kind of position you hold and of what importance you have in the whole society, whcih ultimately reflects on how intelligent you are. Generally, higher caste Arkyonitans are much more intelligent than the lower castes.

''~Ketsu: People (especially me) hate reading large chunks of text. Prefer this: ~''
''
* Members of castes can mix freely with one another.
** Exception: The Exile
* A member of higher caste can punish a member of lower caste if the latter offends the former.
** However, not obsessively, as everyone are creations of the Arkyonite.
* Members of a higher caste are generally more intelligent than those of lower caste.
* Caste heavily depends on:
*# The position one holds
*# Importance in the society
*# And therefore to a lesser extent, intelligence.
''
''~Ketsu: This is so that the reader can read the larger bullets and only read the smaller bullets if they want further information~''

Inter-caste marriages are also seen within the society itself. Usually, when this happens, the person of the higher caste would drop down a caste (or a few, in some cases) to match their partners' caste. There would of course be exceptions too though. If the member lower caste proves his worth to be in a higher caste, showing that he is intelligent enough for example, that person might be able to ascend to the higher caste to match his partners' caste.

The reason why if a person would usually descend in caste when he marries one of a lower caste all boils down to the gene pool. Essentially, members of the higher caste have a more perfect gene pool than those of the lower castes. Hence, to prevent the risk of gene contamination of not-so-perfect genes in the higher castes' gene pool, the person has to descend to his partner's caste, because his offspring has a chance of having not so-perfect-genes, which belong to that caste. Thus, in order for the member of the higher caste to remain in his caste when he marries one of a lower caste, the lower caste member has to prove his worth, to show that he is suited to be in this caste. That is probably the only way that one has a chance of breaking the cycle of low caste relatives, to ascend to another higher caste.

''
* Marriage to a member of lower caste demotes you to that caste
** Exception: If he/she is able to prove his worth for the higher caste (example, via intelligence), there is a possibility of ascension.
** Reasons for this:
*** Members of higher caste have a more perfect gene pool that those of lower castes.
*** Prevent risk of gene contamination due to aforementioned not-so-perfect genes.
''

=== The Keyakh ===

This is essentially the prophetic and priest caste of the whole society. They are the most highly regarded of all castes as they hold the greatest religious value and are seen to be blessed by Arkyonite of all castes.
Faith is key

=== The Sayokh Acadamies===

Here are found the professors/teaching Arkyonitans. They are highly regarded as they pass on their knowledge, as well as help with research and various stuff.
Intelligence is key

=== The Mezakh Balance===

The hand of Justice forms another Hierarchial caste.
Their Ability to Judge is key

=== The Arkhantine Legion===

This is the soldier/warrior caste. Imbued with the power to change the tide of battles and political pressuring. To guard and protect the civilisation from unclean filth to the soul. Arkhantine is the Warrior Manifestation of Arkyonite.

An Arkyonitan from the Arkhantine Caste belongs to one of the Chapters of the Legion, where each has its own system of Hierarchy. Valiance is their key.

====Warrior Templars====
Crusaders, at the very least. Conquering lands (and seas) in the name of Arkyonite, "FOR THE ARKANCE!" as they cry out.

''~Ketsu: Too many layers make reading difficult. Try to keep to a maximum of level 3 (four '='s) ~''
* '''Templar Knights''': Elite and veteran warrior templars, who have proven worthy for the Templar Knighthood.

====Custodians====
Guards and keepers of the law and civilization. They also act like the policemen of the race.

* '''Arkhantine Honour Guard''': Guards and keepers of the Temples of Arkyonite

====Death Angels====
A Specialized Chapter of the Arkhantine Legion. They deal death to those unworthy of the Arkance, enemies of the Arkance, and the like. The Death Angels had played a significant role in the Arkhantine crusade IV, after the Warrior Templars had failed the crusade which had turned on the crusaders themselves. They were the ones who dealt the hammerhand of Arkyonite on Sladaakh's Minions.
They are the only chapter of the Arkhantine Legion that are exclusive only to the Exgetilians, for they forever bear the grudge against the Aesladae, the ones who had fallen from the Arkance and followed Sladaakh.

* '''The Order of Hammerhand''': Blessed by the hammerhand of Arkyonite, they are essentially the daemon hunters of the Legion
* '''The Order of Culticure''': They hunt down cultists and those who oppose the Arkance in every aspect of it.

''~Ketsu: If you really need to expand on a section but have reaches level limits, this either means that you have to 1) reorganize the text, 2) break the rule, or 3) create a new article. You can create new articles are subpages of this article for convinence, if you want.~''

====Space Monkeys====
A Chapter of the Arkhantine Legion who specialise in crafts and machines. They are by far the most technologically advanced chapter of the Legion. Basically, they are the heavy support of the Legion.

Being called space monkeys seem to be rather of a paradox. Monkeys are mammals, Exgetilians and Aesladae are birds. Their imfamous tactic is to fly above the ranks of ground troops and drop "coconut bombs" to the enemies' demise. The space monkeys are the most notable legends in creature flight. They possess immense agility in flight, and seem to be able to dodge even the nigh impossible speed of bullets.

* '''Alpha Monkeys''': Legions of machines are rampant in squads.
* '''Omega Monkeys''': These are the finishers of any conflict. If they must, they will use apocalypse class weapons just to deal the "ultimatum"

===The Hesaakhram Architecture===
Workers, Engineers and Architects of the Race.
Resourcefulness is key

=== The Exiles and The Outcastes ===

These come from those who have:

* disobeyed direct orders from the High Council of the Enclave itself;
* broken one of the few fatal taboos/sins
* been considered as 'unclean' or 'beyond remedy'
* dabbled with the occult
* chosen the path of self exile
* done any combination of the above
* been banished from the main society

''~Ketsu: Capitalization is unnecessary =P try underlining if you want to make generalizations, or bolding for an important point, italics for additional information, and strikethrough for outdated but still relevant information.~''

Being bastards and bitches of the race is key.

Being BASTARDS AND BITCHES of the race is key.
Though most who are in this unfortunate caste strive to prove their worth in society and to be placed in one of the castes again.
Contradictory actions carried out on them include experimentation, where any new technology may be tested on these outcastes before actually being used on the main population, like genetic experimentation; be sent as death vanguards, 1st to die, but those who survive may be inducted into the Arkhantine Legion.

==Government of the Enclave==

=== The High Council of the Enclave ===

This is the highest of any of the social hierarchies of the Arkyonitans.

The High Council of Enclaves consist of 3 popes from each of the 3 main branches of organization: Technology, Arkance and Law. They are: The Professor, The Prophet and the Prosecutor. The prophet is ranked the highest of the 3 because it is, after all, a devout society where it is only natural that the pope of the religion should be the head of the civilization.

The 3 popes are traditionally of only Exgetilian races. There are however, exceptions found within the archives of historical sources, where at least 1 Aeslada have actually risen to the power of a pope.

==Races of Arkyonitan==

It is not known whether the Exgetilians or the even the Aesladae are distant cousins of dragons the same way Draconians - ones of dragon born - are to them, the dragons. For according to human sources, birds have been derived from reptiles. Since dragons are classified under reptiles, and Exgetilians and Aesladae are classified as birds, it is assumed that Exgetilians and Aesladae are long lost cousins of the dragons.

Even their personalities match dragons in a such striking way. They are also rapacious, arrogant and deadly, but are also majestic, awesome and manificent
=== The Exgetilians ===

They are essentially the brains of the race.

The Exgetilians play a mostly prophetic role in the Arkance. As a result, most of the Exgetilians are of the upper class of the social hierarchy.

The Exgetilians are a race of genetic purity. Because of that, Exgetilians, on an average, outlive at least 3 generations of the Aesladic population. The air of arrogance they carry around with them is thus, understandable. To see one live, bear children, die, and further see their children bear their own children and die, one would naturally feel a sense of superiority over the other race.

=== The Aesladae ===

The brawn of the race

The Aeslada play a mostly militant role in the Arkance. Their goal is to protect, preserve and uphold the Arkance's ideals, as well as the high council of the Enclave

==The History of the Arkyonitans==
The history of the Arkyonitans is marked by Ages that signify each stage of development of the civilization as a whole. However, the Arkyonitans have not always been united under one Conclave as it is now. It was only in the Age of Mystic that the Arkyonitan races had split, each following their own beliefs, one on the path of Sladaakh, the other on the path of Arkyonite. As the name of the civilization suggested, the path of the Arkyonite is the true path. Sladaakh is a Greater Daemon from the Outlands that was out to gain ultimate dominance over the Arkyonitan civilization. As a result of this split in the Age of Mystic, the belief in each deity triggered an evolutionary change in the core genus of the Arkyonitan race. Thus formed the Exgetilians, under the hand of Arkyonite, and the Aesladae, under the horns of Sladaakh.

===The Prehistoric Age===

===The Age of Mystic===

===The Age of Reason===

===The Age of Doubt===
The roots of the Arkyonitans was a rather grim battle between good an evil - an armageddon - to be exact.

It was the last battle signaling the end of the Age of Doubt, ushering in the Age of Truth, before Arkyonitans could colonise other planets, pretty much like how we are now, seeing colonising Mars as plausible, but yet still impossible for us.

====The Arkhantine Crusade IV - The end of the Age of Doubt====

''~Ketsu: This is a case where large chunks of paragraphs are good, because points don't tell stories well. Points are more for information and facts.~''

The fourth Arkhantine Crusade began during the 2nd millenia of the Age of Doubt, as recorded in the archives. The fourth Arkhantine Crusade had been the bloodiest one ever recorded in the long history of the Arkhantine, the militant wings of the Arkanis Servitté (Servants of the Arkance). Templars, you may call them. The fourth Arkhantine Crusade was so called the final phase the "Maximus Exsequor", a great execution, avenging and punishment of the followers of Sladaakh, (later appearing as one of the OWGs that appear in the main arc of the story) as the final phase of purification to be done, to rid the world of the Daemon, Sladaakh.

Originally, there were 2 distinct factions dominating the lands of Tegos - the Exgetilians and the Aesladae. Both of which were at extreme ends of their beliefs. For countless millenia, the 2 factions saw no end to their disagreements. For one, the Exgetilians believed, rather, knew that Arkyonite is a true god, from the celestial planes, and that Sladaakh was in fact a daemon from the Outlands, out to corrupt the entirety of the Tegorian world. On the other hand, the Aesladae believed that Sladaakh was the true god and Arkyonite was the false one. As a result, distinct differences grew into the two factions, evolving the original genus race of the Arkyonitans into 2 nearly separate races, though they still share the same base characteristics. As a result, Exgetilians generally outlive 3 generations of Aesladae. Subsequently, this gave Exgetilians an air of arrogance in the presence of Aesladae. To be able to see 3 generations pass, with each one being born and die with the passing of time, Exgetilians sure have reason to feel superior about.

The fourth Arkhantine Crusade was the most unique crusade ever recorded in the history. It is the key milestone in the entire history of the Arkyonitans. Sladaakh's minions and spawns were, at one point of the crusade, somehow summoned by the Aesladic clerics, and it turned the tide of battle, becoming not the fourth Arkhantine Crusade, but the Damnation Crusade of Sladaakh. At that point, the Aesladae knew they had fallen into the hands of Sladaakh, but it was too late. Corruption of the Aesladic population had set in so deeply that only few strong-willed could keep their sanity. Those who could all defected and went into exile. Sladaakh's legions pushed the Exgetilian forces past the final Arkhantine defense perimeter. It was then when the summoning of Sladaakh itself was initiated. Sladaakh's summoning required a thousand Aesladic sacrifices, which tragically came to be. A thousand sacrifices were thus made in preparation for the final phase of the summoning. It was thought that all hope was lost. Even if the Arkanis Servitté decided to call the Arkyonite into the world, a single mistake could result in an unstable rift within the space-time continuum. Celestial energies from the celestial plane would spill out and engulf the planet itself, destroying it, and even the entirety of the system itself.

Finally, when the Arkanis Servitté found out about the materialization of Sladaakh, they decided to take the chance. It was better that Sladaakh would be slain in the calling of the Arkyonite. At that time, the thought of the act of calling of a god down was unthinkable. (Just like how we would think if we were to summon gods. If you compare summoning demons, it seems more... plausible than the summoning of gods) By Arkyonite's grace, everything went smoothly without a hitch. The Hammerhand of Arkyonite came down upon Legions of Sladaakh's forces, and eventually stopping the final phase of Sladaakh's summoning. Alas, the war had been won. Sladaakh was believed to have been caught somewhere in the void in transit from the Outlands to the Material Plane, our world, and assumed to be destroyed. It was beyond the knowing of even the highest of the Arkanis Servitté.

Apart from the many tragedies that result from the Armegeddon, the conflict gave rise to a new order, united under one Conclave. The severing of Sladaakh's hold on the world and the damnation to the void marked the end of the Age of Doubt, and ushered in the new age, the Age of Truth. It was then that the Arkyonite's power was apparent, and witnessed for all to see. Even the Aesladae were moved by it. Eventually, the remnants of Sladaakh's followers were purged from the world.

Thus began the Age of Truth. A time of truth, and reconciliation of the Arkanis Servitté, followers of the Arkance. As well as the eventual integration of Aesladae into the Exgetilian society as a whole, called the Arkyonitan, people of the Arkyonite.

Ketsu:

== Generic Pointers ==

Since we now have a forum, discussions are usually held there instead of the discussion or article pages on the wiki. When editing shared pages or other people's pages

In general try to write clearly and concisely and make sure you are always aiming to do something which improves the wiki contents. An edit might be to contribute whole paragraphs or pages full of information, or it could be as simple as fixing a typo/spelling mistakes.

Before you save a change, you can enter a short note in the '''Summary''' box describing your changes. Don't worry too much about this, or spend too much time thinking about it, but try to give a little description of what you just changed e.g. ''"fixed typo"'' or ''"added more information about OWGs"''.

The summary gets stored alongside your edit, and allows people to track changes in the wiki more effectively.

== Organizing Pages ==

=== Categories ===

Adding these tags create links at the bottom of the article which take you to the list of all pages in that category, which makes it easy to browse related articles. An article can be a member of more than one category. For example, this article is part of [[:Category:Administrative]], and has the following code placed at the bottom of the page:

== Structure of the universe ==
Three factions exist in the universe, two of which are hostile to each other and the remaining one tries to be neutral. Faction members generally only agree to be friendly during war, unless other agreements are made individually by bilateral relations or otherwise. {{ref|1|p60|a}}

Humans are generally ignorant of other races until [[Armegeddon_Segment|Stage Four: Armageddon]]. {{ref|1|p60|b}}

''Basically I want a universe that we can basically make into a sandbox with some guidelines.'' {{ref|3|p72|a}}

''Races can be either based on ancient lore (like lord of the rings), or be futuristic (like star wars/star trek era). This allows for Magic vs Technology.'' {{ref|4|p100|a}}

=== Hostile Faction: Serene ===

=== Hostile Faction: Chaos ===

=== Neutral Faction ===
''Members neutral faction does not have to be peace loving, as all societies will have outcasts and rogues.'' {{ref|1|p60|c}}

=== Other Parties ===
* [[#Humans]]
* [[#Hiirgardee]]
* [[#OWG]]

''The reason why I put these in separate sections instead of under here is because it flows with the content this way. ~Ketsu''

== Prophesy ==

A prophesy causes all factions to fight for a singular object,{{ref|1|p60|d}} this prophesy evolved individually on all involved planets,{{ref|2|p69|a}} but is not exactly the same on all said planets. {{ref|7|p137|a}}

''The number of aforementioned prophetic races are up to whoever wants to create a spiritual race.'' {{ref|3|p72|b}}

=== Basic Generalized Version ===

The prophesy would say that on Earth, the true race who can find '''the special place or item''' will be able to ascend to the next stage of evolution, The Master Race. {{ref|3|p72|c}}

This special place or item shall be temporarily named Relic henceforth.

=== The Crusade ===
A crusade will occur due to this prophesy.

[QUOTE]The problem is that no one wants to let anyone become the Master Race cos they're all greedy bastards or have no faith that the Master Race will not wipe other races out. To actually find this special item or place, they need researchers, archaeologists, surveyors and other scientists to scour through the planet to find it. That would take days or weeks or even months. That's why most races want to grab the planet to see whether they hit jackpot and through discovering where it is and also as insurance that no one will get it.[/QUOTE] {{ref|3|p72|d}} Might want to wikify this quote

== Earth ==

=== Pre-Exodus Period ===

Humanity developed into the late stages of the Fusion Age, progress level 7. Fusion engines are possible, by using magnetism (or similar) to contain the fusion reactions within the reactor, making a much more efficient power source. Solar energy systems also developed to a much advanced stage. Mars is colonized. The whole solar system is accessible to some, strictly in the industry business where mining of ores and minerals are involved. {{ref|8|p139|a}} However, we are not yet able to travel to a distant star within the lifespan of a human, and thus are generally ignorant of other races. {{ref|1|p60|e}}

=== Exodus ===

So after successful trials for unmanned probe with that drive and finally reached alpha centauri, they begin building the exodus ship, the 1st colony ship ever built, with ready buildings and everything needed for a colony to be established. However, the cataclysm occurred, due to some STUPID HUMAN DOING which had something to do with the sun, and then humans rushed the production of the exodus with success, and they escaped successfully but resultant chaos and conflict for humans on earth from being "left behind to die and rot" caused them to hate the exodus humans, later used as an excuse for the "left to rot" humans to kill the exodus humans on their return to earth in the later segment. {{ref|8|p139|b}}

=== Post-Apocalyptic Period ===

Thus the 'portal' was opened, which paved the way to otherwordly beings like gods and stuff and the destruction of earth's surface left the people distraught, technological regression ensues, and mutation begins. Like the setting of fallout the game, where it is set in the post apocalyptic period, where 3 factions are present: ''Refer to [[#Earth Humans]]'' {{ref|8|p139|c}}

=== How ancient is ancient? ===
The technology on Earth is defined as "not so advanced". Examples of weapons or gadgets incude:
* Guns (non-automatic)
* Explosives
* Early Helicopters (Goblin/Gnome-made)
* Flash powder (used in flash bangs)

''Try to imagine a time where it was an era where warcraft III took place.'' {{ref|6|p133|a}}

=== Dealing with enemy high-tech races ===

On Earth, High tech races can't use "weapons of mass destruction" because that would risk destroying precious information on the whereabouts of the location of the Relic. Magic wielders are also able to change Earth's atmosphere on a small scales so technologies such as energy-based plasma guns and lasers don't work correctly. However, this doesn't mean that these high-tech weapons are totally ineffective - some races resort to old fashioned ballistics while others continue to rely on their malfunctioning equipment. {{ref|5|p114|a}} {{ref|6|p133|b}}

== Humans ==

=== Earth Humans ===

Humans left by the Exodus Humans to rot and die on the Earth. Earth Humans mutate over a period of few millenia due to their being blasted with gamma rays and evolved with magic. {{ref|8|p139|h}} {{ref|9|p141|a}} {{ref|13|p165|a}}

''Think Orcs, Dwarves, Elves.'' {{ref|9|p141|b}}

These humans eventually become [[#Ascended Humans]].

==== Vault Humans / Technologists ====
People who built a vault to contain all the necessary technology, and they lived in there, safe from the cataclysm, and thus untouched by the mutation sequences. finally emerging as the most techno advanced NORMAL humans, but people generally became so afraid of technology that these tech advanced humans are killed off soon after, but some are still alive, so they are very rare, ultimately the world's technologies become "lost", locked in the vaults {{ref|8|p139|d}}

==== Technopriests ====
Actually scientists who make technology a religion and worship the "machine god". These people break into the lost vaults and steal those technology for their own use. However, they are also hard to find since they are the minority and also hiding from the technology fearing population. {{ref|8|p139|e}}

==== General Population ====
These are the people who had experienced mutation, so they possess magic.
They can be those who have evolved into the various "races" we all know in ancient lore: elves who adore the woods, dwarves who live in impregnable fortresses under the mountains, orcs who have increased aggression and the bad side of humans intensify, etc. {{ref|8|p139|f}}

=== Ascended Humans ===

Earth humans find the Relic, thanks to an 'epic' battle against the Otherworldy Gods. After this Relic is found, all the humans on Earth make the final ascension of evolution, becoming the Perfect Race.{{ref|9|p141|c}}

These humans are able to roam the universe in their spiritual form. {{ref|9|p141|d}} However, still require their physical bodies in order to survive.{{ref|10|p144|a}}

The initial ascended race has to battle all the other races, struggling to survive their incubation period to become the real ascended.{{ref|15|p171|a}}

''Is the following still in effect? [QUOTE]The initial ascended which have no control over their genetic defects in their weaker physical body but the new generation of humanity that comes through procreation will have accepted the Exodus Humans and are using technology to put their physical bodies to sleep in pods that take care of medical and psychological treatment. This new generation of Earth Humans will not have the biasness that the past Earth Humans had against Exodus humans and that's why they'll be more accepting of technology from Exodus humans.[/QUOTE]'' {{ref|14|p167|a}}

''See also:'' [[#Ascension]]

=== Exodus Humans ===

The Exodus Humans are those humans who left Earth during the Exodus Segment.

The Exodus Humans did make contact with Earth Humans but because of their past actions. They weren't in the best of terms and even then only the Vault Humans actually ever made contact with the Exodus Humans. {{ref|9|p141|e}}

However, the Ascended Humans eventually forgive the Exodus Humans for their actions, the former being benevolent and all.{{ref|9|p141|f}}

== Relic ==

''Note: I'm not sure how this would go... but either the portal mutates them humans, or they don't, but instead draw power from the portal which channels energy through the moon, the sun, or something else like the other worldly beings being the "gods".''{{ref|8|p139|g}}

Lost Hiirgardee technology. [reference required]

''If it's going to involve "enlightenment" (in effect), the relic should be something that would give knowledge, like some sort of altar with writing, ancient scrolls, tablets, etc.'' {{ref|17|p184|a}}

''Maybe we could put it such that it IS a special place but inside there are many Sacred Relics which are actually equipment from the Hiirgardee to test whether the race is the right one to be ascended?'' {{ref|18|p186|a}}

=== Ascension ===

The relic possesses power to transform the beings of inheritance, humans, to be exact, into ascended beings. The ascension is a long process that drags on to a few generations since the ascension to the spiritual form is another step towards evolution. ''I suppose the kind of power the relic endows upon would bring in a super-evolutionary "virus" specifically to humans.''{{ref|19|p188|a}} ''This super-evolutionary "virus" is possibly a DNA computer of some sort.''{{ref|x|p262|a}}

It would be hard for the initial stage of the ascension to progress to the next due to genetic defects of some sort. But people generally do not have genetic defects and start to live longer, making the generations span across a larger period of time.{{ref|19|p188|b}}

''For Human-specific Ascension, See Also:'' [[#Ascended Humans]]

==== Initiation ====

The key event is the finding of the Relic.
This triggers the "superevolutionary virus" among the humans/the people who inherit it. People start to have less and less genetic defects, and thus they start to live longer. Some people instead would experience adverse effects on their system. Defects, so to speak.{{ref|19|p188|c}}

==== Infant ====

This is the next stage toward ascension. The next stage shows the push for purity of form within the physical world. So people get more perfect in their genes. Ethical/racial differences between the humans start to dwindle and diminish. People would start to look more of the same ethnicity, instead of varying ones. They start to live longer still, a few hundred years, to be exact.{{ref|19|p188|d}}

==== Purity of form ====

This is a crucial point in ascension - purity of form - Immortality in the physical realm. This kind of "immortality" is the kind depicted in the Lord of the Rings' elves. They are immortal in the sense that they do not die from old age, but are still bound by the death from mortal wounds. This, however, is the time where people's thoughts about conception and reproduction start to dwindle too. So they start to have a very sharp decline in birth rates, since they live forever.{{ref|11|p154|b}}{{ref|16|p179|a}}{{ref|19|p188|e}}

==== Spiritual detachment ====

This is the point where they go on to the next stage of evolution where people have stretched their limits in the physical realm, and start to evolve in the spiritual realm. This is thus the point where the humans are able to detach their souls from their body to roam about, just like in prey, but the main body must not die. They still require a physical manifestation to be able to exist within this universe.{{ref|19|p188|f}}

==== Spiritual Autonomy ====

The distance between the physical body and the souls gets even further, so their souls become autonomous of their bodies, still requiring the physical body to exist, but exist as another entity. {{ref|12|p156|a}}{{ref|19|p188|g}}

''Possibly, have it like 'The Golden Compass', where the souls are outside their bodies. One entity is unable to live without the other, unless the link between the two is completely severed, then the being begins to degrade and die. However, note that the golden compass also has beings who are semi-severed, such as the witches, whose daemons are able to travel long distances alway from their bodies.'' {{ref|10|p144|b}}{{ref|19|p188|h}}

''The above 'Golden Compass' principal agrees somewhat with Gnaiza's 'split personality' thing with he exception of Gnaiza's 'Two Souls' thing. While the two 'Golden Compass' entities are able to think and act separately, they are essentially one being.'' {{ref|11|p154|a}}

''(Another analogy is like the Holy Trinity of God. For those who don't know, it is God himself existing as 3 seemingly separate entities, but yet as one.)''{{ref|19|p188|i}}

==== Purity in Soul ====

The final stage - full independence from the body. {{ref|19|p188|j}}

This happens in the [[Revelation Segment]] {{ref|16|p179|b}}

''[QUOTE]We could have that the reason why they can become the perfect race is because they left their 'weaker' personalities and quirks and their physical bodies behind. They would also need to keep their physical bodies alive I guess though they would have thought of a way to keep their second 'soul' and body alive and well without it killing itself.[/QUOTE]'' {{ref|12|p156|a}}

''(Unanswered Question) Is there the possibility of some of the Ascended preferring Spiritual Autonomy due to the dual-nature of it?'' [reference required]

=== Size ===
''Would it be like an altar of a huge scale like the portal to the ark in Halo 3, or a small object like a ring, or some artifact that can be hand carried, or something medium size, like an orb of maximum diameter of 24 feet across, that can vary in its size and has a mind of its own?'' {{ref|15|p171|b}}

== Hiirgardee ==

Presumably already ascended beings, possibly already highly advanced. {{ref|17|p184|b}}

Creator of the Prophesies and the Relic.

''See Also:'' [[#Prophesy]], [[#Relic]]

=== Reason for the Relic ===

''This part is still hanging in the air. Afaik, a decision has not yet been made. ~Ketsu''

# Hiirgardee could not take down the Otherworldly Gods (henceforth called OWG) for good and so prophesied that one day a race chosen to ascend will be able to conquer all evil. {{ref|20|p198|a}}
# Hiirgardee uses the relic as a gift for the realm/universe's dominating race to ascend, after which another "test" against the OWG before full ascension. {{ref|21|p202|a}}

== OWG ==
''The OWG and humans are two of the Hiirgardee's students, however this spoils the image of the OWG hence ruining the plot itself, unless utterly concealed from readers carefully.'' {{ref|21|p202|b}}

== Closing statement ==

''Things around here begin to get murky and undecided. I'll stop here and dump my notes. Once decisions are made, I or someone else can edit this article. ~Ketsu''

<nowiki>
Arky: (p193)

My initial idea was that it could be a test from the hiirgardee.
To be able to ascend, it can be the ultimate trial that the race should face:

1) Survive the onslaught of self-destruction from the dark ascension
2) Overcome the otherworldly beings.
3) Claim the throne.

(Random "rules")

So i suppose the portals for the otherworldly beings to enter was planted by the hiirgardee. Perhaps the otherworldly beings are enemies of old, and want to destroy everything hiirgardee.
So the hiirgardee finally decided that for a race to ascend to the next level, they must prove their worth. Defeat all hindrances and "evil", and willing to sacrifice for the good of the universe (though may be a questionable action, FOR THE GREATER GOOD)

Shadowbreak:
Just my opinion but yeah we could use the otherworldly gods such that the Hiirgardee could not take them down for good and so prophesised that one day a race chosen to ascend will be able to conquer all evil.

Arky: (p202 - noted in refs as #21)

So the Hiirgardee's first step was to see whether humans have the potential and capability to withstand against the "mighty" otherwordly gods (lets refer this as OWG).

Then after Hiirgardee's series of tests have proven humans are worthy, it was time for them to receive the gift of ascension.

Perhaps the hiirgardee wanted to see which each dimension/realm's dominating race could be the best and take the crown to ascend.
So, yeah. a competition in essence, for "students"(humans and OWG) to vie for the place as "best student" or something.

Arky: (p208)

So, OWGs are the race for humans to defeat ultimately. Perhaps the portal of the OWGs was an event of the Hiirgardee that they failed to foresee, and to maintain the balance of the universe, the humans must try to rid the universe of the evil OWGs or something along that line...

OWGs are like humans, i guess. Not in the sense that they are humanoid or something like that, but in the sense that there are various factions of people that together, they form a collective of OWGs.

candidate for ascension

Shadowbreak: (p229)
OWGs are the other worldly beings that live on different planes. They've started to take interest in ours as ours has many delicious souls to feast upon. Though they do not actually need to consume souls to sustain them, as long as there is an entity such as a star is adequate enough of energy that will be good enough for sustenace for these creepy beings. However with the hopes that they can get the RELIC, they can ensure that they can continue to exist and also to tinker with it so that they can produce some mighty more delicious souls to consume. MUAHAHAHAHA.

Arky: (p230)

Don't get me wrong here. It's not that i don't want the OWGs to be like beings that require things to survive, i want them to have human-like characteristics, but the dominant characteristics are much enhanced; more intensified. Perhaps the OWG of war could have aggression as his main dominant characteristic and is the epitome of human aggression, that sort of thing. Its just the way they achieve their goals to survive.

And also, because of the stuff that they consume, for the survival of the fittest, so to speak, they are generally seen as more evil. So you see entire star systems getting depleted, and *light bulb* you could use that as the basis for dying stars and why they turn into black holes, and in fact black holes are dimensional portals for the OWGs to enter into this realm, but normal humans and other beings would get crushed like the real blackholes. You get what i mean?

Maybe, it could go like this:
1st age: emergence and dominance of OWGs (in other galaxies... which are not included in this main story, but can develop in the future, perhaps like background info/backstory)
2nd age: massacre of OWGs (in this galaxy. perhaps the humans are the only ones who actually defeated OWGs and drove them out of the system)
3rd age: re-emergence of 1 very powerful OWG (then this is like Sauron vs the whole of Middle-earth)

Shadowbreak: (p245)
I think Ketsu gets the idea and I want the Hiirgardees to know of the existance of the OWGs. It is PIVOTAL that they know there are OWGs. They know that they can defeat em so they leave our galaxy and plant gene seeds in the genetic pool. They send em to many planets and also put relics at the planets they reside hoping that one day these species will be able to achieve victory over OWGs.

Shadowbreak: (p260)

I was thinking of making all life in the universe spawn from the same gene pool where an advanced seeding device would travel from one point to another of the universe dropping potential HUMAN race genes however the rest will be duds and will be instead be other alien races. The Hiirgardees did this because the OWGs swept the entire galaxy after they left the galaxy and to also reduce suspicion to the OWGs that something was up. They also built the relics on all planets which would be easy for the Hiirgardee to accomplish so that if the Human race did land there they could then unlock the special gene seed and ascend.

Shadowbreak: (p267)

So in other words the master plan for the Hiirgardee was that, 1)Leave human gene seed on Earth that would destroy the OWGs in the future 2)Use aliens to defend the Humans though by no means influencing them to do so and 3)Ensure the peace of the galaxy through the ascension of Humans which would act as a governing race for the Galaxy 4)(in future conworld development) Hiirgardee come back to live in our galaxy once again.

[Quote]
Might me my bad on this, but did the Hiiirgardee alreadly expect the humans to evolve into what they are, and to get the seed?[/Quote]

Yes, they actually planned it all in the start but that's privilege only the creators like us know. Additionally, the Hiirgardee did not expect the humans to become 'ready' for the relics until more years to come however due to the Sun's extreme radiation, it accelerated the plan.

== Earth ==

=== Pre-Exodus Period ===

Humanity developed into the late stages of the Fusion Age, progress level 7. Fusion engines are possible, by using magnetism (or similar) to contain the fusion reactions within the reactor, making a much more efficient power source. Solar energy systems also developed to a much advanced stage. Mars is colonized. The whole solar system is accessible to some, strictly in the industry business where mining of ores and minerals are involved. {{ref|8|p139|a}} However, we are not yet able to travel to a distant star within the lifespan of a human, and thus are generally ignorant of other races. {{ref|1|p60|e}}

=== Exodus ===

So after successful trials for unmanned probe with that drive and finally reached alpha centauri, they begin building the exodus ship, the 1st colony ship ever built, with ready buildings and everything needed for a colony to be established. However, the cataclysm occurred, due to some STUPID HUMAN DOING which had something to do with the sun, and then humans rushed the production of the exodus with success, and they escaped successfully but resultant chaos and conflict for humans on earth from being "left behind to die and rot" caused them to hate the exodus humans, later used as an excuse for the "left to rot" humans to kill the exodus humans on their return to earth in the later segment. {{ref|8|p139|b}}

=== Post-Apocalyptic Period ===

Thus the 'portal' was opened, which paved the way to otherwordly beings like gods and stuff and the destruction of earth's surface left the people distraught, technological regression ensues, and mutation begins. Like the setting of fallout the game, where it is set in the post apocalyptic period, where 3 factions are present: ''Refer to [[#Earth Humans]]'' {{ref|8|p139|c}}

=== How ancient is ancient? ===
The technology on Earth is defined as "not so advanced". Examples of weapons or gadgets incude:
* Guns (non-automatic)
* Explosives
* Early Helicopters (Goblin/Gnome-made)
* Flash powder (used in flash bangs)

''Try to imagine a time where it was an era where warcraft III took place.'' {{ref|6|p133|a}}

=== Dealing with enemy high-tech races ===

On Earth, High tech races can't use "weapons of mass destruction" because that would risk destroying precious information on the whereabouts of the location of the Relic. Magic wielders are also able to change Earth's atmosphere on a small scales so technologies such as energy-based plasma guns and lasers don't work correctly. However, this doesn't mean that these high-tech weapons are totally ineffective - some races resort to old fashioned ballistics while others continue to rely on their malfunctioning equipment. {{ref|5|p114|a}} {{ref|6|p133|b}}

== Humans ==

=== Earth Humans ===

Humans left by the Exodus Humans to rot and die on the Earth. Earth Humans mutate over a period of few millenia due to their being blasted with gamma rays and evolved with magic. {{ref|8|p139|h}} {{ref|9|p141|a}} {{ref|13|p165|a}}

''Think Orcs, Dwarves, Elves.'' {{ref|9|p141|b}}

These humans eventually become [[#Ascended Humans]].

==== Vault Humans / Technologists ====
People who built a vault to contain all the necessary technology, and they lived in there, safe from the cataclysm, and thus untouched by the mutation sequences. finally emerging as the most techno advanced NORMAL humans, but people generally became so afraid of technology that these tech advanced humans are killed off soon after, but some are still alive, so they are very rare, ultimately the world's technologies become "lost", locked in the vaults {{ref|8|p139|d}}

==== Technopriests ====
Actually scientists who make technology a religion and worship the "machine god". These people break into the lost vaults and steal those technology for their own use. However, they are also hard to find since they are the minority and also hiding from the technology fearing population. {{ref|8|p139|e}}

==== General Population ====
These are the people who had experienced mutation, so they possess magic.
They can be those who have evolved into the various "races" we all know in ancient lore: elves who adore the woods, dwarves who live in impregnable fortresses under the mountains, orcs who have increased aggression and the bad side of humans intensify, etc. {{ref|8|p139|f}}

=== Ascended Humans ===

Earth humans find the Relic, thanks to an 'epic' battle against the Otherworldy Gods. After this Relic is found, all the humans on Earth make the final ascension of evolution, becoming the Perfect Race.{{ref|9|p141|c}}

These humans are able to roam the universe in their spiritual form. {{ref|9|p141|d}} However, still require their physical bodies in order to survive.{{ref|10|p144|a}}

The initial ascended race has to battle all the other races, struggling to survive their incubation period to become the real ascended.{{ref|15|p171|a}}

''Is the following still in effect? [QUOTE]The initial ascended which have no control over their genetic defects in their weaker physical body but the new generation of humanity that comes through procreation will have accepted the Exodus Humans and are using technology to put their physical bodies to sleep in pods that take care of medical and psychological treatment. This new generation of Earth Humans will not have the biasness that the past Earth Humans had against Exodus humans and that's why they'll be more accepting of technology from Exodus humans.[/QUOTE]'' {{ref|14|p167|a}}

''See also:'' [[#Ascension]]

=== Exodus Humans ===

The Exodus Humans are those humans who left Earth during the Exodus Segment.

The Exodus Humans did make contact with Earth Humans but because of their past actions. They weren't in the best of terms and even then only the Vault Humans actually ever made contact with the Exodus Humans. {{ref|9|p141|e}}

However, the Ascended Humans eventually forgive the Exodus Humans for their actions, the former being benevolent and all.{{ref|9|p141|f}}

== Relic ==

''Note: I'm not sure how this would go... but either the portal mutates them humans, or they don't, but instead draw power from the portal which channels energy through the moon, the sun, or something else like the other worldly beings being the "gods".''{{ref|8|p139|g}}

Lost Hiirgardee technology. [reference required]

''If it's going to involve "enlightenment" (in effect), the relic should be something that would give knowledge, like some sort of altar with writing, ancient scrolls, tablets, etc.'' {{ref|17|p184|a}}

''Maybe we could put it such that it IS a special place but inside there are many Sacred Relics which are actually equipment from the Hiirgardee to test whether the race is the right one to be ascended?'' {{ref|18|p186|a}}

=== Ascension ===

The relic possesses power to transform the beings of inheritance, humans, to be exact, into ascended beings. The ascension is a long process that drags on to a few generations since the ascension to the spiritual form is another step towards evolution. ''I suppose the kind of power the relic endows upon would bring in a super-evolutionary "virus" specifically to humans.''{{ref|19|p188|a}} ''This super-evolutionary "virus" is possibly a DNA computer of some sort.''{{ref|x|p262|a}}

It would be hard for the initial stage of the ascension to progress to the next due to genetic defects of some sort. But people generally do not have genetic defects and start to live longer, making the generations span across a larger period of time.{{ref|19|p188|b}}

''For Human-specific Ascension, See Also:'' [[#Ascended Humans]]

==== Initiation ====

The key event is the finding of the Relic.
This triggers the "superevolutionary virus" among the humans/the people who inherit it. People start to have less and less genetic defects, and thus they start to live longer. Some people instead would experience adverse effects on their system. Defects, so to speak.{{ref|19|p188|c}}

==== Infant ====

This is the next stage toward ascension. The next stage shows the push for purity of form within the physical world. So people get more perfect in their genes. Ethical/racial differences between the humans start to dwindle and diminish. People would start to look more of the same ethnicity, instead of varying ones. They start to live longer still, a few hundred years, to be exact.{{ref|19|p188|d}}

==== Purity of form ====

This is a crucial point in ascension - purity of form - Immortality in the physical realm. This kind of "immortality" is the kind depicted in the Lord of the Rings' elves. They are immortal in the sense that they do not die from old age, but are still bound by the death from mortal wounds. This, however, is the time where people's thoughts about conception and reproduction start to dwindle too. So they start to have a very sharp decline in birth rates, since they live forever.{{ref|11|p154|b}}{{ref|16|p179|a}}{{ref|19|p188|e}}

==== Spiritual detachment ====

This is the point where they go on to the next stage of evolution where people have stretched their limits in the physical realm, and start to evolve in the spiritual realm. This is thus the point where the humans are able to detach their souls from their body to roam about, just like in prey, but the main body must not die. They still require a physical manifestation to be able to exist within this universe.{{ref|19|p188|f}}

==== Spiritual Autonomy ====

The distance between the physical body and the souls gets even further, so their souls become autonomous of their bodies, still requiring the physical body to exist, but exist as another entity. {{ref|12|p156|a}}{{ref|19|p188|g}}

''Possibly, have it like 'The Golden Compass', where the souls are outside their bodies. One entity is unable to live without the other, unless the link between the two is completely severed, then the being begins to degrade and die. However, note that the golden compass also has beings who are semi-severed, such as the witches, whose daemons are able to travel long distances alway from their bodies.'' {{ref|10|p144|b}}{{ref|19|p188|h}}

''The above 'Golden Compass' principal agrees somewhat with Gnaiza's 'split personality' thing with he exception of Gnaiza's 'Two Souls' thing. While the two 'Golden Compass' entities are able to think and act separately, they are essentially one being.'' {{ref|11|p154|a}}

''(Another analogy is like the Holy Trinity of God. For those who don't know, it is God himself existing as 3 seemingly separate entities, but yet as one.)''{{ref|19|p188|i}}

==== Purity in Soul ====

The final stage - full independence from the body. {{ref|19|p188|j}}

This happens in the [[Revelation Segment]] {{ref|16|p179|b}}

''[QUOTE]We could have that the reason why they can become the perfect race is because they left their 'weaker' personalities and quirks and their physical bodies behind. They would also need to keep their physical bodies alive I guess though they would have thought of a way to keep their second 'soul' and body alive and well without it killing itself.[/QUOTE]'' {{ref|12|p156|a}}

''(Unanswered Question) Is there the possibility of some of the Ascended preferring Spiritual Autonomy due to the dual-nature of it?'' [reference required]

=== Size ===
''Would it be like an altar of a huge scale like the portal to the ark in Halo 3, or a small object like a ring, or some artifact that can be hand carried, or something medium size, like an orb of maximum diameter of 24 feet across, that can vary in its size and has a mind of its own?'' {{ref|15|p171|b}}

== Hiirgardee ==

Presumably already ascended beings, possibly already highly advanced. {{ref|17|p184|b}}

Creator of the Prophesies and the Relic.

''See Also:'' [[#Prophesy]], [[#Relic]]

=== Reason for the Relic ===

''This part is still hanging in the air. Afaik, a decision has not yet been made. ~Ketsu''

# Hiirgardee could not take down the Otherworldly Gods (henceforth called OWG) for good and so prophesied that one day a race chosen to ascend will be able to conquer all evil. {{ref|20|p198|a}}
# Hiirgardee uses the relic as a gift for the realm/universe's dominating race to ascend, after which another "test" against the OWG before full ascension. {{ref|21|p202|a}}

== OWG ==
''The OWG and humans are two of the Hiirgardee's students, however this spoils the image of the OWG hence ruining the plot itself, unless utterly concealed from readers carefully.'' {{ref|21|p202|b}}

== Closing statement ==

''Things around here begin to get murky and undecided. I'll stop here and dump my notes. Once decisions are made, I or someone else can edit this article. ~Ketsu''

<nowiki>
Arky: (p193)

My initial idea was that it could be a test from the hiirgardee.
To be able to ascend, it can be the ultimate trial that the race should face:

1) Survive the onslaught of self-destruction from the dark ascension
2) Overcome the otherworldly beings.
3) Claim the throne.

(Random "rules")

So i suppose the portals for the otherworldly beings to enter was planted by the hiirgardee. Perhaps the otherworldly beings are enemies of old, and want to destroy everything hiirgardee.
So the hiirgardee finally decided that for a race to ascend to the next level, they must prove their worth. Defeat all hindrances and "evil", and willing to sacrifice for the good of the universe (though may be a questionable action, FOR THE GREATER GOOD)

Shadowbreak:
Just my opinion but yeah we could use the otherworldly gods such that the Hiirgardee could not take them down for good and so prophesised that one day a race chosen to ascend will be able to conquer all evil.

Arky: (p202 - noted in refs as #21)

So the Hiirgardee's first step was to see whether humans have the potential and capability to withstand against the "mighty" otherwordly gods (lets refer this as OWG).

Then after Hiirgardee's series of tests have proven humans are worthy, it was time for them to receive the gift of ascension.

Perhaps the hiirgardee wanted to see which each dimension/realm's dominating race could be the best and take the crown to ascend.
So, yeah. a competition in essence, for "students"(humans and OWG) to vie for the place as "best student" or something.

Arky: (p208)

So, OWGs are the race for humans to defeat ultimately. Perhaps the portal of the OWGs was an event of the Hiirgardee that they failed to foresee, and to maintain the balance of the universe, the humans must try to rid the universe of the evil OWGs or something along that line...

OWGs are like humans, i guess. Not in the sense that they are humanoid or something like that, but in the sense that there are various factions of people that together, they form a collective of OWGs.

candidate for ascension

Shadowbreak: (p229)
OWGs are the other worldly beings that live on different planes. They've started to take interest in ours as ours has many delicious souls to feast upon. Though they do not actually need to consume souls to sustain them, as long as there is an entity such as a star is adequate enough of energy that will be good enough for sustenace for these creepy beings. However with the hopes that they can get the RELIC, they can ensure that they can continue to exist and also to tinker with it so that they can produce some mighty more delicious souls to consume. MUAHAHAHAHA.

Arky: (p230)

Don't get me wrong here. It's not that i don't want the OWGs to be like beings that require things to survive, i want them to have human-like characteristics, but the dominant characteristics are much enhanced; more intensified. Perhaps the OWG of war could have aggression as his main dominant characteristic and is the epitome of human aggression, that sort of thing. Its just the way they achieve their goals to survive.

And also, because of the stuff that they consume, for the survival of the fittest, so to speak, they are generally seen as more evil. So you see entire star systems getting depleted, and *light bulb* you could use that as the basis for dying stars and why they turn into black holes, and in fact black holes are dimensional portals for the OWGs to enter into this realm, but normal humans and other beings would get crushed like the real blackholes. You get what i mean?

Maybe, it could go like this:
1st age: emergence and dominance of OWGs (in other galaxies... which are not included in this main story, but can develop in the future, perhaps like background info/backstory)
2nd age: massacre of OWGs (in this galaxy. perhaps the humans are the only ones who actually defeated OWGs and drove them out of the system)
3rd age: re-emergence of 1 very powerful OWG (then this is like Sauron vs the whole of Middle-earth)

Shadowbreak: (p245)
I think Ketsu gets the idea and I want the Hiirgardees to know of the existance of the OWGs. It is PIVOTAL that they know there are OWGs. They know that they can defeat em so they leave our galaxy and plant gene seeds in the genetic pool. They send em to many planets and also put relics at the planets they reside hoping that one day these species will be able to achieve victory over OWGs.

Shadowbreak: (p260)

I was thinking of making all life in the universe spawn from the same gene pool where an advanced seeding device would travel from one point to another of the universe dropping potential HUMAN race genes however the rest will be duds and will be instead be other alien races. The Hiirgardees did this because the OWGs swept the entire galaxy after they left the galaxy and to also reduce suspicion to the OWGs that something was up. They also built the relics on all planets which would be easy for the Hiirgardee to accomplish so that if the Human race did land there they could then unlock the special gene seed and ascend.

Shadowbreak: (p267)

So in other words the master plan for the Hiirgardee was that, 1)Leave human gene seed on Earth that would destroy the OWGs in the future 2)Use aliens to defend the Humans though by no means influencing them to do so and 3)Ensure the peace of the galaxy through the ascension of Humans which would act as a governing race for the Galaxy 4)(in future conworld development) Hiirgardee come back to live in our galaxy once again.

[Quote]
Might me my bad on this, but did the Hiiirgardee alreadly expect the humans to evolve into what they are, and to get the seed?[/Quote]

Yes, they actually planned it all in the start but that's privilege only the creators like us know. Additionally, the Hiirgardee did not expect the humans to become 'ready' for the relics until more years to come however due to the Sun's extreme radiation, it accelerated the plan.

==== Technopriests ====
Actually scientists who make technology a religion and worship the "machine god". These people break into the lost vaults and steal those technology for their own use. However, they are also hard to find since they are the minority and also hiding from the technology fearing population. {{ref|8|p139|e}}

==== General Population ====
These are the people who had experienced mutation, so they possess magic.
They can be those who have evolved into the various "races" we all know in ancient lore: elves who adore the woods, dwarves who live in impregnable fortresses under the mountains, orcs who have increased aggression and the bad side of humans intensify, etc. {{ref|8|p139|f}}

=== Ascended Humans ===

Earth humans find the Relic, thanks to an 'epic' battle against the Otherworldy Gods. After this Relic is found, all the humans on Earth make the final ascension of evolution, becoming the Perfect Race.{{ref|9|p141|c}}

These humans are able to roam the universe in their spiritual form. {{ref|9|p141|d}} However, still require their physical bodies in order to survive.{{ref|10|p144|a}}

The initial ascended race has to battle all the other races, struggling to survive their incubation period to become the real ascended.{{ref|15|p171|a}}

''Is the following still in effect? [QUOTE]The initial ascended which have no control over their genetic defects in their weaker physical body but the new generation of humanity that comes through procreation will have accepted the Exodus Humans and are using technology to put their physical bodies to sleep in pods that take care of medical and psychological treatment. This new generation of Earth Humans will not have the biasness that the past Earth Humans had against Exodus humans and that's why they'll be more accepting of technology from Exodus humans.[/QUOTE]'' {{ref|14|p167|a}}

''See also:'' [[#Ascension]]

=== Exodus Humans ===

The Exodus Humans are those humans who left Earth during the Exodus Segment.

The Exodus Humans did make contact with Earth Humans but because of their past actions. They weren't in the best of terms and even then only the Vault Humans actually ever made contact with the Exodus Humans. {{ref|9|p141|e}}

However, the Ascended Humans eventually forgive the Exodus Humans for their actions, the former being benevolent and all.{{ref|9|p141|f}}

== Relic ==

''Note: I'm not sure how this would go... but either the portal mutates them humans, or they don't, but instead draw power from the portal which channels energy through the moon, the sun, or something else like the other worldly beings being the "gods".''{{ref|8|p139|g}}

Lost Hiirgardee technology. [reference required]

''If it's going to involve "enlightenment" (in effect), the relic should be something that would give knowledge, like some sort of altar with writing, ancient scrolls, tablets, etc.'' {{ref|17|p184|a}}

''Maybe we could put it such that it IS a special place but inside there are many Sacred Relics which are actually equipment from the Hiirgardee to test whether the race is the right one to be ascended?'' {{ref|18|p186|a}}

=== Ascension ===

The relic possesses power to transform the beings of inheritance, humans, to be exact, into ascended beings. The ascension is a long process that drags on to a few generations since the ascension to the spiritual form is another step towards evolution. ''I suppose the kind of power the relic endows upon would bring in a super-evolutionary "virus" specifically to humans.''{{ref|19|p188|a}} ''This super-evolutionary "virus" is possibly a DNA computer of some sort.''{{ref|x|p262|a}}

It would be hard for the initial stage of the ascension to progress to the next due to genetic defects of some sort. But people generally do not have genetic defects and start to live longer, making the generations span across a larger period of time.{{ref|19|p188|b}}

''For Human-specific Ascension, See Also:'' [[#Ascended Humans]]

==== Initiation ====

The key event is the finding of the Relic.
This triggers the "superevolutionary virus" among the humans/the people who inherit it. People start to have less and less genetic defects, and thus they start to live longer. Some people instead would experience adverse effects on their system. Defects, so to speak.{{ref|19|p188|c}}

==== Infant ====

This is the next stage toward ascension. The next stage shows the push for purity of form within the physical world. So people get more perfect in their genes. Ethical/racial differences between the humans start to dwindle and diminish. People would start to look more of the same ethnicity, instead of varying ones. They start to live longer still, a few hundred years, to be exact.{{ref|19|p188|d}}

==== Purity of form ====

This is a crucial point in ascension - purity of form - Immortality in the physical realm. This kind of "immortality" is the kind depicted in the Lord of the Rings' elves. They are immortal in the sense that they do not die from old age, but are still bound by the death from mortal wounds. This, however, is the time where people's thoughts about conception and reproduction start to dwindle too. So they start to have a very sharp decline in birth rates, since they live forever.{{ref|11|p154|b}}{{ref|16|p179|a}}{{ref|19|p188|e}}

==== Spiritual detachment ====

This is the point where they go on to the next stage of evolution where people have stretched their limits in the physical realm, and start to evolve in the spiritual realm. This is thus the point where the humans are able to detach their souls from their body to roam about, just like in prey, but the main body must not die. They still require a physical manifestation to be able to exist within this universe.{{ref|19|p188|f}}

==== Spiritual Autonomy ====

The distance between the physical body and the souls gets even further, so their souls become autonomous of their bodies, still requiring the physical body to exist, but exist as another entity. {{ref|12|p156|a}}{{ref|19|p188|g}}

''Possibly, have it like 'The Golden Compass', where the souls are outside their bodies. One entity is unable to live without the other, unless the link between the two is completely severed, then the being begins to degrade and die. However, note that the golden compass also has beings who are semi-severed, such as the witches, whose daemons are able to travel long distances alway from their bodies.'' {{ref|10|p144|b}}{{ref|19|p188|h}}

''The above 'Golden Compass' principal agrees somewhat with Gnaiza's 'split personality' thing with he exception of Gnaiza's 'Two Souls' thing. While the two 'Golden Compass' entities are able to think and act separately, they are essentially one being.'' {{ref|11|p154|a}}

''(Another analogy is like the Holy Trinity of God. For those who don't know, it is God himself existing as 3 seemingly separate entities, but yet as one.)''{{ref|19|p188|i}}

==== Purity in Soul ====

The final stage - full independence from the body. {{ref|19|p188|j}}

This happens in the [[Revelation Segment]] {{ref|16|p179|b}}

''[QUOTE]We could have that the reason why they can become the perfect race is because they left their 'weaker' personalities and quirks and their physical bodies behind. They would also need to keep their physical bodies alive I guess though they would have thought of a way to keep their second 'soul' and body alive and well without it killing itself.[/QUOTE]'' {{ref|12|p156|a}}

''(Unanswered Question) Is there the possibility of some of the Ascended preferring Spiritual Autonomy due to the dual-nature of it?'' [reference required]

=== Size ===
''Would it be like an altar of a huge scale like the portal to the ark in Halo 3, or a small object like a ring, or some artifact that can be hand carried, or something medium size, like an orb of maximum diameter of 24 feet across, that can vary in its size and has a mind of its own?'' {{ref|15|p171|b}}

== Hiirgardee ==

Presumably already ascended beings, possibly already highly advanced. {{ref|17|p184|b}}

Creator of the Prophesies and the Relic.

''See Also:'' [[#Prophesy]], [[#Relic]]

=== Reason for the Relic ===

''This part is still hanging in the air. Afaik, a decision has not yet been made. ~Ketsu''

# Hiirgardee could not take down the Otherworldly Gods (henceforth called OWG) for good and so prophesied that one day a race chosen to ascend will be able to conquer all evil. {{ref|20|p198|a}}
# Hiirgardee uses the relic as a gift for the realm/universe's dominating race to ascend, after which another "test" against the OWG before full ascension. {{ref|21|p202|a}}

== OWG ==
''The OWG and humans are two of the Hiirgardee's students, however this spoils the image of the OWG hence ruining the plot itself, unless utterly concealed from readers carefully.'' {{ref|21|p202|b}}

== Closing statement ==

''Things around here begin to get murky and undecided. I'll stop here and dump my notes. Once decisions are made, I or someone else can edit this article. ~Ketsu''

<pre>
Arky: (p193)

My initial idea was that it could be a test from the hiirgardee.
To be able to ascend, it can be the ultimate trial that the race should face:

1) Survive the onslaught of self-destruction from the dark ascension
2) Overcome the otherworldly beings.
3) Claim the throne.

(Random "rules")

So i suppose the portals for the otherworldly beings to enter was planted by the hiirgardee. Perhaps the otherworldly beings are enemies of old, and want to destroy everything hiirgardee.
So the hiirgardee finally decided that for a race to ascend to the next level, they must prove their worth. Defeat all hindrances and "evil", and willing to sacrifice for the good of the universe (though may be a questionable action, FOR THE GREATER GOOD)

Shadowbreak:
Just my opinion but yeah we could use the otherworldly gods such that the Hiirgardee could not take them down for good and so prophesised that one day a race chosen to ascend will be able to conquer all evil.

Arky: (p202 - noted in refs as #21)

So the Hiirgardee's first step was to see whether humans have the potential and capability to withstand against the "mighty" otherwordly gods (lets refer this as OWG).

Then after Hiirgardee's series of tests have proven humans are worthy, it was time for them to receive the gift of ascension.

Perhaps the hiirgardee wanted to see which each dimension/realm's dominating race could be the best and take the crown to ascend.
So, yeah. a competition in essence, for "students"(humans and OWG) to vie for the place as "best student" or something.

Arky: (p208)

So, OWGs are the race for humans to defeat ultimately. Perhaps the portal of the OWGs was an event of the Hiirgardee that they failed to foresee, and to maintain the balance of the universe, the humans must try to rid the universe of the evil OWGs or something along that line...

OWGs are like humans, i guess. Not in the sense that they are humanoid or something like that, but in the sense that there are various factions of people that together, they form a collective of OWGs.

candidate for ascension

Shadowbreak: (p229)
OWGs are the other worldly beings that live on different planes. They've started to take interest in ours as ours has many delicious souls to feast upon. Though they do not actually need to consume souls to sustain them, as long as there is an entity such as a star is adequate enough of energy that will be good enough for sustenace for these creepy beings. However with the hopes that they can get the RELIC, they can ensure that they can continue to exist and also to tinker with it so that they can produce some mighty more delicious souls to consume. MUAHAHAHAHA.

Arky: (p230)

Don't get me wrong here. It's not that i don't want the OWGs to be like beings that require things to survive, i want them to have human-like characteristics, but the dominant characteristics are much enhanced; more intensified. Perhaps the OWG of war could have aggression as his main dominant characteristic and is the epitome of human aggression, that sort of thing. Its just the way they achieve their goals to survive.

And also, because of the stuff that they consume, for the survival of the fittest, so to speak, they are generally seen as more evil. So you see entire star systems getting depleted, and *light bulb* you could use that as the basis for dying stars and why they turn into black holes, and in fact black holes are dimensional portals for the OWGs to enter into this realm, but normal humans and other beings would get crushed like the real blackholes. You get what i mean?

Maybe, it could go like this:
1st age: emergence and dominance of OWGs (in other galaxies... which are not included in this main story, but can develop in the future, perhaps like background info/backstory)
2nd age: massacre of OWGs (in this galaxy. perhaps the humans are the only ones who actually defeated OWGs and drove them out of the system)
3rd age: re-emergence of 1 very powerful OWG (then this is like Sauron vs the whole of Middle-earth)

Shadowbreak: (p245)
I think Ketsu gets the idea and I want the Hiirgardees to know of the existance of the OWGs. It is PIVOTAL that they know there are OWGs. They know that they can defeat em so they leave our galaxy and plant gene seeds in the genetic pool. They send em to many planets and also put relics at the planets they reside hoping that one day these species will be able to achieve victory over OWGs.

Shadowbreak: (p260)

I was thinking of making all life in the universe spawn from the same gene pool where an advanced seeding device would travel from one point to another of the universe dropping potential HUMAN race genes however the rest will be duds and will be instead be other alien races. The Hiirgardees did this because the OWGs swept the entire galaxy after they left the galaxy and to also reduce suspicion to the OWGs that something was up. They also built the relics on all planets which would be easy for the Hiirgardee to accomplish so that if the Human race did land there they could then unlock the special gene seed and ascend.

Shadowbreak: (p267)

So in other words the master plan for the Hiirgardee was that, 1)Leave human gene seed on Earth that would destroy the OWGs in the future 2)Use aliens to defend the Humans though by no means influencing them to do so and 3)Ensure the peace of the galaxy through the ascension of Humans which would act as a governing race for the Galaxy 4)(in future conworld development) Hiirgardee come back to live in our galaxy once again.

[Quote]
Might me my bad on this, but did the Hiiirgardee alreadly expect the humans to evolve into what they are, and to get the seed?[/Quote]

Yes, they actually planned it all in the start but that's privilege only the creators like us know. Additionally, the Hiirgardee did not expect the humans to become 'ready' for the relics until more years to come however due to the Sun's extreme radiation, it accelerated the plan.

== Structure of the universe ==
Three factions exist in the universe, two of which are hostile to each other and the remaining one tries to be neutral. Faction members generally only agree to be friendly during war, unless other agreements are made individually by bilateral relations or otherwise. {{ref|1|p60|a}}

Humans are generally ignorant of other races until [[Armegeddon_Segment|Stage Four: Armageddon]]. {{ref|1|p60|b}}

''Basically I want a universe that we can basically make into a sandbox with some guidelines.'' {{ref|3|p72|a}}

''Races can be either based on ancient lore (like lord of the rings), or be futuristic (like star wars/star trek era). This allows for Magic vs Technology.'' {{ref|4|p100|a}}

=== Hostile Faction: Serene ===

=== Hostile Faction: Chaos ===

=== Neutral Faction ===
''Members neutral faction does not have to be peace loving, as all societies will have outcasts and rogues.'' {{ref|1|p60|c}}

== Prophesy ==

A prophesy causes all factions to fight for a singular object,{{ref|1|p60|d}} this prophesy evolved individually on all involved planets,{{ref|2|p69|a}} but is not exactly the same on all said planets. {{ref|7|p137|a}}

''The number of aforementioned prophetic races are up to whoever wants to create a spiritual race.'' {{ref|3|p72|b}}

=== Basic Generalized Version ===

The prophesy would say that on Earth, the true race who can find '''the special place or item''' will be able to ascend to the next stage of evolution, The Master Race. {{ref|3|p72|c}}

This special place or item shall be temporarily named Relic henceforth.

== Conflicts ==

=== The Crusade ===
A crusade will occur due to this prophesy.

[QUOTE]The problem is that no one wants to let anyone become the Master Race cos they're all greedy bastards or have no faith that the Master Race will not wipe other races out. To actually find this special item or place, they need researchers, archaeologists, surveyors and other scientists to scour through the planet to find it. That would take days or weeks or even months. That's why most races want to grab the planet to see whether they hit jackpot and through discovering where it is and also as insurance that no one will get it.[/QUOTE] {{ref|3|p72|d}} Might want to wikify this quote

== Earth ==

=== Pre-Exodus Period ===

Humanity developed into the late stages of the Fusion Age, progress level 7. Fusion engines are possible, by using magnetism (or similar) to contain the fusion reactions within the reactor, making a much more efficient power source. Solar energy systems also developed to a much advanced stage. Mars is colonized. The whole solar system is accessible to some, strictly in the industry business where mining of ores and minerals are involved. {{ref|8|p139|a}} However, we are not yet able to travel to a distant star within the lifespan of a human, and thus are generally ignorant of other races. {{ref|1|p60|e}}

=== Exodus ===

So after successful trials for unmanned probe with that drive and finally reached alpha centauri, they begin building the exodus ship, the 1st colony ship ever built, with ready buildings and everything needed for a colony to be established. However, the cataclysm occurred, due to some STUPID HUMAN DOING which had something to do with the sun, and then humans rushed the production of the exodus with success, and they escaped successfully but resultant chaos and conflict for humans on earth from being "left behind to die and rot" caused them to hate the exodus humans, later used as an excuse for the "left to rot" humans to kill the exodus humans on their return to earth in the later segment. {{ref|8|p139|b}}

=== Post-Apocalyptic Period ===

Thus the 'portal' was opened, which paved the way to otherwordly beings like gods and stuff and the destruction of earth's surface left the people distraught, technological regression ensues, and mutation begins. Like the setting of fallout the game, where it is set in the post apocalyptic period, where 3 factions are present: ''Refer to [[#Earth Humans]]'' {{ref|8|p139|c}}

=== How ancient is ancient? ===
The technology on Earth is defined as "not so advanced". Examples of weapons or gadgets incude:
* Guns (non-automatic)
* Explosives
* Early Helicopters (Goblin/Gnome-made)
* Flash powder (used in flash bangs)

''Try to imagine a time where it was an era where warcraft III took place.'' {{ref|6|p133|a}}

=== Dealing with enemy high-tech races ===

On Earth, High tech races can't use "weapons of mass destruction" because that would risk destroying precious information on the whereabouts of the location of the Relic. Magic wielders are also able to change Earth's atmosphere on a small scales so technologies such as energy-based plasma guns and lasers don't work correctly. However, this doesn't mean that these high-tech weapons are totally ineffective - some races resort to old fashioned ballistics while others continue to rely on their malfunctioning equipment. {{ref|5|p114|a}} {{ref|6|p133|b}}

== Humans ==

=== Earth Humans ===

Humans left by the Exodus Humans to rot and die on the Earth. Earth Humans mutate over a period of few millenia due to their being blasted with gamma rays and evolved with magic. {{ref|8|p139|h}} {{ref|9|p141|a}} {{ref|13|p165|a}}

The distance between the physical body and the souls gets even further, so their souls become autonomous of their bodies, still requiring the physical body to exist, but exist as another entity. {{ref|19|p188|g}}

''Possibly, have it like 'The Golden Compass', where the souls are outside their bodies. One entity is unable to live without the other, unless the link between the two is completely severed, then the being begins to degrade and die. However, note that the golden compass also has beings who are semi-severed, such as the witches, whose daemons are able to travel long distances alway from their bodies.'' {{ref|10|p144|b}}{{ref|19|p188|h}}

''The above 'Golden Compass' principal agrees somewhat with Gnaiza's 'split personality' thing with he exception of Gnaiza's 'Two Souls' thing. While the two 'Golden Compass' entities are able to think and act separately, they are essentially one being.'' {{ref|11|p154|a}}

''(Another analogy is like the Holy Trinity of God. For those who don't know, it is God himself existing as 3 seemingly separate entities, but yet as one.)''{{ref|19|p188|i}}

==== Purity in Soul ====

The final stage - full independence from the body. {{ref|19|p188|j}}

''[QUOTE]We could have that the reason why they can become the perfect race is because they left their 'weaker' personalities and quirks and their physical bodies behind. They would also need to keep their physical bodies alive I guess though they would have thought of a way to keep their second 'soul' and body alive and well without it killing itself.[/QUOTE]'' {{ref|12|p156|a}}

''Is there the possibility of some of the Ascended preferring Spiritual Autonomy due to the dual-nature of it?''

=== Size ===
''Would it be like an altar of a huge scale like the portal to the ark in Halo 3, or a small object like a ring, or some artifact that can be hand carried, or something medium size, like an orb of maximum diameter of 24 feet across, that can vary in its size and has a mind of its own?'' {{ref|15|p171|b}}
