Sad Shroom
In The Distant Future, In A Far Off Galaxy...
000NE. Many hundred light-years from Earth, Robin Schweinstager, one of the three great space explorers, finally landed on a hospitable planet. Nearly 600 years later, the galaxy is now enjoying an age of interconnection. The human settlers, now termed 'Asans', have colonized six different planets, and the Asan Empire is in an alliance with many of the nearby species. This is an age of interspecies unity. This is an age of spacecraft, of plasma suits and interplanetary commerce.
But this is an age of unrest.
In the system, there is a long-held spiritual collective called 'The Prophets', people of various different races who are able to tap into a powerful, invisible energy force called 'Delta Aura'. Through the power of their faith, they are able to heighten their senses, heighten their physicality, and utilise a famous combat technique called 'Plasmatics', among many other abilities. Some choose to put their faith in material things; money, the promise of self-gain, perhaps arrogant power. These are termed the 'Idealists', and they have no particular unity, spread across the galaxy in many different roles. Others follow a purer variety of faith - faith in the Delta Aura itself, and call themselves 'The Purists'. The Purists are gifted with the clearest, most accurate prophesies, and are a unity which has long been responsible for the galactic upkeep of peace and balance.
578NE. The arrogant, corrupt, Purist-hating Emperor Azgad sits in power over the Galactic Empire, and underneath the surface, tensions are beginning to rise. Some of the alien species are growing unhappy with their alliance to such a powerful empire. And in the darkness, a sinister breed of Prophets is beginning to thrive. Until, at a political summit on the planet Azulis, the beginning of a terrible sequence of events comes into fruition...
This time, can light really quash the darkness? Or is the entire galaxy doomed to tyrannical enslavement? Only you can decide!
