πLore and Species
Here is a teaser of our lore and some information about the different species that make up Nova Creed.
The year is 2420.
Civilisations across the galaxy have suffered a series of environmental disasters. Some remain planet bound, on the brink of extinction, others have moved their populations into space. The common factor among all of them: the need for water.
In the wilderness of space there is only one profession more dangerous than that of a soldier. Those that follow the Nova Creed. These scavengers living on stations at the edge of known space, awaiting the call to arms when new deposits of ice are detected. Despite the bonds they've built up they compete in incredible races across the stars to be the first to find the ice and take the profit from selling it on to planets in need.
The Nova Creed revolves around the space station Elonius V. Elonius V sits on an asteroid far away from any habitable planets. It was originally an old mining colony but was abandoned during the last great galactic war and fell into disrepair. As time went by it slowly became a base for those hunting for ice on the outskirts of space. Soon enough it became home to many of them. While there are a number of similar space stations, often newer and better equipped, Elonius V has developed a reputation bordering on reverence, which has turned the inhabitants of Elonius V into a community like no other.
While Elonius V is falling apart, overcrowded and full of problems its a true home to those living there, and though many of them earn enough to move away again, the bonds they've built up keeps bringing them back. There are a few dingy bars on Elonius V, but the main hub is a large bar in the heart of the station called The Tea Bowl. The Tea Bowl is owned and run by the illustrious Red, nicknamed βShoesβ who lost his legs out on a race gone wrong. Heβs retired now, but keeps the order, and people fear and respect him in equal measure.
This space station has a population of 4321 inhabitants, of various species professions and ranks. It's the oldest and most famous of stations and has developed a notoriety that has united those onboard, even as they compete fiercely against one another.
The 6 species who make up the Nova Creed are: The Adalios, The Xylak, The Maonod, The Rumidians, The Ilithanons and The Carlithian. Are you ready to meet them? Good. Read on...
