Solaris Empire (Terran Empire)

[History]
The Solaris Empire (also known as Terran Empire), was the cradle of Humanity

With the accelerated super industrialization and an excessive population growth, the various governments existing during the 22nd to the 23rd centuries on planet earth, cradle of humanity, capsized and suffered serious problems that inevitably led to a global crisis and a long and exhausting succession of wars that ended up imposing a single state on all others: the hegemony of Solaris.

At the time of the Solaris Hegemony, humanity had established colonies on all the useful planets of the solar system, but had not been able to go beyond that system.

This changed with the discovery and unlocking of the gateways starring Doctor Lisie (or Lisi), who opened the doors of the Galaxy to the pioneers who began to explore it, spreading the seed of humanity throughout the Milky Way.

The Expansion

With the unlock of the Gateways in 2287, the Solaris Hegemony grew and eventually became an Empire, the Solaris Empire (or Terran Empire). 

Initially, the human colonies owed obedience to the central administration of the Empire, but as humanity spread throughout the galaxy, the Empire's control over the new colonies became more tenuous and ineffective.

Some of the most stable and most successful colonies would give rise to alternative societies to imperial domination, with the seeds emerging from those that would become the Major Powers of today: The Cogwerk Planetary Society, the Meiji domain, which would later give rise to the Shogunate and the Illyrian Republic, later Illyrian Hegemony, began to form during the first centuries of the expansion of mankind.

Sol Invictus. The Days of Glory of the Empire

For several centuries, the hegemony of the Solar Empire imposed its law in each and every one of the new territories, obtaining an unlimited source of ever-flowing resources towards Old Terra.

At that time, the Old Terra knew a time of splendor as never before, but it was also a glory that announced a dark and anguished end.

The voracity of old land grew without measure, and the resources demanded from the colonies were increasing, which produced a great inflation in the foreign markets, which tried to dissociate themselves from the exorbitant rates and imperial tariffs.

The Decay

In a vain attempt to strengthen its control over emerging and booming colonies, the Solaris Empire resurged its iron fist policy, but this only served to accelerate the disaffection of the growing colonies.

When the tribe of Radix, a common House of the Sector of Illyria, developed the first combat mech and produced a sufficient number as to face a conventional army, they rejected the abusive imperial economic impositions. When the Solaris Empire sent a punishment force that faced the novel Mech force of the Radix Tribe in the so-called Battle of the Markets in 3087 (as it faced the Imperial economic model, the new emergent market model of the colonies) , the tribe of Radix won an overwhelming victory.

This event not only marked the birth of a new era: the Mech Era, but also meant the precipitation of the end of the Solaris Empire and its consequent collapse.

With the strength of the colony of Illyria and its transformation into a Republic, first, and in Hegemony, later, the diminished Imperial sector, including the Sun system, ended up engulfed within the domain of the raising Illyrian Hegemony.

The Heralds of Order

[History, War]
Alien race and faction, contemporary of the Forerunners, of those who were vassals.

Morphology:

Humanoid shape, grayish skin, average height around two and a half meters and thin but fibrous constitution. 
Sharp and elongated features and almost flat face under the superciliary arch. 
Mixed respiratory system, through gill structures in the neck, the respiration is allowed in both liquid and air.

Cultural brands: They cover their bodies with intricate bio luminescent designs of metallic and crystalline nature, that emerge from their skin, as if they were scarifications. It is speculated that these brands respond to a way of identifying a hierarchy, be it military or social.

Present History:

Towards the edge of the years 3337 to 3338, it was sighted what was initially taken by a shower of stars from the outer halo of our galaxy, approaching the Alpha sector, by the arm of Orion. The astrophysicists soon noticed that the space bodies were actually colossal ships of planetary size and superior alien technology.

In the first contact, they presented themselves to the mankind as the "Heralds of Order" and claimed to be the legitimate owners of the galaxy, which would have been promised to them by the Forerunners in payment for their services in an almost everlasting expedition to the ends of the Universe, to expand the Empire and the Forerunner Civilization.

After about one hundred thousand years they are back, and their planetary ships orbit in the vicinity of the sectors occupied by the Major and Minor Powers, pretending to protect our species in the straight path, as well as imposing the order for which they were conceived. Imposing as the first task, the definitive destruction of the treacherous Forerunner Droch'ah, whom they believe alive, hidden and protected by our species.

Technology:

Mechs: The Primal Heralds

The Heralds of Order mostly use technology of Forerunner origin, which is a superior technology that humanity had around the year 3300, however, today, with the influence of the Chroniode and meta-technology, humanity has been able to take several giant steps in Mech technology, offering an opportunity for resistance to the domination of the Order Heralds.

The Heralds of Order use mainly massive waves of powerful Mechs known as the "Primal Heralds", they are super weapon-specialized Mechs built with a formidable potential in an environmental element-weapon to which they are linked (air, fire, iron ...) and given a virtual invulnerability to the linked element, but at the same time a weakness for a certain type of weapon, as happens in the basic shields.

There are five Primal Heralds models:
  • Fire Heralds (Fire Weapons immunity, Projectile vulnerability) 
  • Ice Heralds (Ice weapons immunity, Fire vulnerability)
  • Air Heralds (Missile weapons immunity, Ice vulnerability)
  • Laser Heralds (Laser weapons immunity, Missile vulnerability)
  • Iron Heralds (Projectile weapons immunity, Laser vulnerability)
Millenarian Star Ships

Humanity has not yet been able to produce star ships of this category and although the real potential of them is unknown, they represent a very real threat, capable of harboring massive waves of the Heralds, ready to invade any system or even destroy small planets from their orbital batteries.

Clarke Federation Missions

[Mission Location]
Unlock the Clarke Federation missions by defeating the mini bosses of Vupa 6.

After the awakening of the Yoram in Vupa 6 and the bloody battles against them in a desperate attempt to expel them from the galaxy, they withdrew towards the outer confines of the galactic disk, in the distant regions of the halo and the fringe of the zones inhabited by humanity.
Clarke Federation Flag

But new rumors and signs of his persistence in the Clarke Federation Sector will move General Nova to send agents to the Federation, following the trail of Yoram, Unification and Xeon.

Travel to the distant Minor Power of the Clarke Federation, in the end tail of the Orion Arm, near the fringe, explore its colonies and meet the legendary Federation Rangers.

Unlocking the Clarke Federation Missions

[Missions, Locations]
The Clarke Federation Mission Location will become unlocked by clearing the mini bosses in Vupa 6

With the only exception of the Clarke Federation missions, there is a logical sequence to unlock each of the Mission Locations.

Once the mini bosses have been defeated, General Nova will assign you new duties in the next location and the Final Boss is exposed to your assault. Although Clarke Federation is the exception: The missions in Clarke Federation will be ordered by General Nova, only when the location of Vupa 6 became cleared.

 Why? Is there a direct link between the Yoram and the appearance of Xeon in our Galaxy.

 It seems that the awakening of the Yoram and the subsequent confrontation between the major powers and the mercenary clans against this new predatory race, caused them to move in search of an easy prey, at the expense of which to gain weight and thrive before attacking our galaxy again.

 This easy prey was the spoils of Unification and Xeon, at which time the Yoram came from our world, sweeping and controlling Unification as puppets.

 General Nova is very interested in clarifying these facts, gathering as much information as possible in order to plan the next steps to take.

Clarke Federation Rangers

[Factions, Elite Units, War]
Because of the omnipresent threat of pirates, always present in the deep fringe, the Clarke Federation created one of the most efficient elite units, the Rangers, whose prestige has reached, through the time, each of the corners of the civilized galaxy.


The Rangers have a large arsenal and all kinds of Mechs at their disposal, many of which are confiscations to pirates, with important modifications.


One of the Ranger's favorite models, which they use in operations that require speed and maneuverability, in the Warg modified with Federation technology. The nature of these modifications constitutes a secret for unauthorized personnel.

Undoubtedly, the Federation Rangers, are one of the most powerful units, only surpassed by a few of the elite mercenary clans of the first and second divisions and some elite units of the remaining Powers.

Xeon Renegades

[Factions, Menaces, Politics, War]
Final Boss on Clarke Federation Missions.

 In the year 3337, a new conatus of invasion of the Unification, was defeated, after which, remains of the Xeon appeared.

Xeon was one of the two main factions of a parallel universe, which faced each other to the ultimate consequences, close to completing the exhaustive genocide of humanity in their world.

In their ruthless struggle, our universe was accidentally detected and identified as an integral part of each of the two enemy sides, each one taking us for their enemies and therefore, assuming a double threat.

Although the greater powers, with the help of the mercenary clans, could reject the invasion attempts of Unification, the enemy of Xeon, and later of the Xeon themselves, this didn't end the problem, to which the Yoram were added, infesting the spoils of the parallel universe and employing both Unification and Xeons against us.


Transcription from a Renegade Xeon Commander's message:
"We came to this universe to escape the persecution of Unification, we hoped that the enemy of our enemy would at least become an ally if not a friend.Your so-called Mercenary Clans have dealt a great blow to Unification, but even in its weakened state we could not overcome them, but then you committed the greatest crime of all and unleashed the Yoram of your galaxy to ours.

Unification has always used genetically modified strains of Yoram spores for their select favorites. How do you think the mind became hive? How do you think they controlled almost an entire galaxy? By infecting each citizen with a tension that kept them served. Why do you think we opposed them? But now, with the uncontrolled Yoram, our entire dimension faces dominance for something even worse than Unification.

As a last resort, we thought to join our Zeon brothers here only to discover that you killed them too. And for that, there can be no forgiveness. We will put this domain under our control and from there we will collapse the rest of their fractured governments one by one. Soon, this whole galaxy will greet Xeon."

Gregori Toranto

[Missions, Menaces, Personalities, War]
First mission enemy encounter at Clarke Federation Sector.

Gregori Toranto (or Toranato) is undoubtedly one of the richest and most influential men of the Clarke Federation, owner of the Exportation Empire "Corporation Toranto", which is the main supplier in the Federation, with important contracts with Defense.

To the public, Toranto is, in addition to a great businessman and a celebrity, a philanthropist. But everything in Toranto is excessive, and thus, behind the scenes, the magnate hides an ominously long shadow, enough to extend his influence towards business and criminal plans in his eagerness to increase his patrimony and power to the limit.

Gregori is also a Fext pilot quite capable, although devious and always willing to control all  circumstances so that they work in his favor, although that supposes the murder.

His excessive ambition has led him to obscure plans that if exposed to the authorities, would make him guilty of high treason.
