Side note: It seems our small community lately and some would say for the past half year even is quite inactive and while some creature makers RPed most of the ancient races were left for dead, and most of the new ones didn’t make it past few months and were left for the pages of history as well. Don’t get me wrong, I have no intention of leaving the Urshans or Thoons behind and I will still contribute my share to our small galaxy, even making a new post-war RP sometimes so the story could go on. Until the activity will regrow though meanwhile I have this creative urge to keep on creating and telling new stories, hoping people out there are interesting in reading them. Therefore I have decided to start a new project, a galaxy I shall create on my own (perhaps in the future let others join as well), a new galaxy, with new interesting races, creatures, planets, cultures, religions, technologies, ideologies and tales of adventures and wars. I truly hope this project will grow large and interesting and will attract a lot of fans. If you’ll be interested I could even add some voting method and ask the fans as well what they would like to see and how do they think each story and race should go. Interaction is important for the creation of a true master-piece.
And now after this long and way too narcissistic speech, I give you my new project:
Biocatia, a story of a galaxy and its inhibitors. “The Biocatia galaxy, a galaxy far away from any others standing almost lonely in space greatly apart from its cluster of neighbors. This spiral galaxy inhabits millions of different species, and life can be found here in abundance. While none of its inhibitors know who were the first races to evolve sapience, relics of past civilizations have been discovered in many planets scattered all around Biocatia. It is said that in an age long ago when the first planets of the outer ring were born an alliance of races rose and ruled the stars. Some races even trace their evolutionary background to those ancient races that are commonly known now as the “Predwellers”. No one is sure what happened to those races. One theory speaks of a galactic total war that used devastating weapons, that is supported by the fact that in the area where most of these artifacts are found indeed there is a very thin scatter of stars, perhaps some of the races that survived are among the current races and have evolved greatly since that day. Another theory speaks of a great technological wonder that allowed the alliance to leave the stars and become self-relayed enabling them to leave the galaxy and float around in the vast universe. A theory that states the “Predwellers” are have left for the inner clusters and are still inspecting the current races as some kind of a massive experiment is also common though most scientists regard this as nonsense and based on no real data. Whatever happened to the “Predwellers” they have left Biocatia for the younger races that evolved in the middle ring and inherited it. Though it is unclear which of the races evolved sapience first all regard the ‘Luminitars” as the first as they have evolved a scientific level greatly above others and have altered this part of the galaxy greatly before any other races had stepped over and challenged them. As everybody knows the stars resident quite far away from each other, making it impossible to travel from one system to its neighbor in less than a few years. Luckily for the new inhibitors the Luminitars have built a great number of “wormhole gates” in every system they have visited making travel in known space much easier and faster. The Luminitars are also responsible for the uplifting of some races, though not all of them on purpose… Praise the gods the Luminitars are a friendly bunch or we were all doomed from the beginning. This is Biocatia, which we Kantonians call home… “- Taken from a speech by professor Jajaran in the arch-university of Kmolk.
I would love to get any comments on the project or more importantly suggestions.
Coming soon: More general information and the first races.
