| Species Namae.jpg
Obsidian Original Characters 2015/4/7 22:10

| The Namae are thought to believe some offshoot of elf though they lack the pointed ears and extended life spans. They have the same large eyes and facial characteristics common to elves but are otherwise almost identical internally at least, to Solarans. One in every 2,000 Namae have some form of superpower although those with such powers do not tend to live very long as single combat to the death is quite commonplace in their society. Therefore most of the population with superpowers tend to be Teenagers. Their society is one that has embraced technology, Magic, and Martial arts as perfectly as one society can. In most respects day to day life is very similar to the Oni species or the Japanese of ancient Earth. Their government is constantly try to cultivate exceptional members of their society and to that end have created dozens of specialized schools which focus on very specific abilities within a school curriculum. The scientific advancements of the Namae are unparalleled and they excel in combat technologies leading the intergalactic markets in the development and sale of advanced war machines and Mecha. While they have the ability to develop FTL technology there has been little progress due to constant civil wars and various conflicts. Cybernetics are quite common and many of their citizens are Full Body replacement Cyborgs while many other (nearly 12%) are partial replacement recipients. There are in fact whole military and police sections whose members are cyborgs. Cybernetics and internet technologies are incredibly advanced on the Namae world though their technologies are not usually compatible with the Intergalactic Standards and require adapters or translation matrices. For off worlders the Namae home-world is treasure trove of possibilities and often great danger. What few technologies have left their world are often massive ships housing entire cities within and the Namae are quite proud of them. Their greatest achievement to date is the development of Space-Fold technology although their version is still in it's infancy and doesn't work with the same degree of accuracy and precision as IGFW Military vessels they can still travel vast distances within a Space-Fold bubble as opposed to the Space-fold Gates created by IGFW ships. These bubbles can be harmful to surrounding matter since anything caught within the bubble will be transported along with the vessel. |

Heigara is the 5th planet from the sun and shares a perfect orbit with it's sister planet Heigara 4 though only Heigara 5 is habitable. Heigara 5 is a type 11 planet being similar to Earth in most repects |

| Half horse half Eagle...Maybe half Griffon, The Hippogriff is a fearsome predator, weighing in at approximately 800 pounds (nearly twice the weight of a Griffin) they sustain themselves on equines and herd animals and occasionally fish. Their only natural predators are dragons and of course Griffons which they will attack on sight. Like the Griffin, they will attack their legendary foe without regard to personal safety or the safety of their riders. Conflicts with Griffins are rare as they inhabit different climates. Hippogriffs inhabit temperate regions while Grifins live in arid tundra. Hippogriffs unlike their cousins are more readily tamed and accepting of a rider making them the preferred mount between the two. |

| The Naga are a reclusive race of evolved serpents with a great propensity towards magic. In fact magic is so ingrained into their society that (as on many other magic dominated worlds) it has replaced technology in every part of daily life. The Naga themselves worship the Egyptian gods and their society reflects this. The Pharaoh rules the entire planet and has many Nomarchs serving across the continents, and several high priests beneath them. All Naga are born able to use magic (mostly for defensive purposes) and can create darkness, create oil slicks. Magic and spells are taught from pre-school ages and on through college. Misuse of magic is taken seriously and the Naga possess unique items that neutralize it rendering the wearer powerless. They have even developed magical implants that visibly mark the bearer with a glowing mark that shines through clothing and armor for all to see their shame. Naga have trouble understanding how anyone can live without magic and are fascinated by technology. In the last 100 years they began experimenting with various forms of technology and now lead the 5 galaxies in Technomancy. As such their world and its businesses are constantly "harassed" with sanctions and various red tape by Mega Corporations who seek to prevent their products from "Flooding" the markets. Visitors to Darmina 6 are subject to a one hour lecture on how visitors are expected to behave and what will and will not be tolerated. Anyone who feels their rights are being violated (or in some cases removed) can feel free to depart back to where they came. Visitors are expected to bow before the appropriate authorities and failure to do so can (and often does) be punishable by death. As a result of such rules tourism is notably light. |

| The Island of California off the coast of Nevada was oriignally part of Earth's United States of America until the great Earthquake of 2385 which caused an upheaval of the tectonic plates separating the landmass that was the state of California and creating the Nevada Mountains pictured in the background. California now serves as the capitol of the Allied Continents of Earth or ACE for short. Washington DC is the former capitol of the United States but after an attack in 2077 by a Villain known as Maneater which killed millions most of the city was decimated beyond recovery. Now Los Angeles serves as the Capitol of not only the United States but all of Earth. |

As the ship closes in on the vortex a tendril of energy lashes out and grabs hold of the warp rings on the aft section spinning the ship on its axis, violently lurching everyone and everything. I know from the Kryllian data tapes that we have to travel headlong into tehe eye of the vortex or the ship is gonna be ripped to shreds.
"Engineering this is the bridge what's happening to my ship?"
"The vortex is pulling at the warp rings and it's causing us to rotate into the eye!"
"Shut them down NOW! Helm go to maneuvering thrusters only"
"Aye aye!"
Immediately the ship begins to right itself so that we're back on course and headed directly into the center of the storm as it were.
Suddenly the ship begins to fill with a white light and my cybernetics eyes go haywire, everything electrical starts having a conniption and it makes for a bumpy ride. Computer panels short and sparks fly the ship shakes and shudders and anyone not sitting is hurled violently to the floor as the vibrations threaten to tear the ship apart completely. The ship begins falling apart from the inside as wiring falls from the ceiling as a metal tile nearly decapitates my navigator. A wave of terror washes over me as the realization that I may have just doomed us all floods my mind. Then as suddenly as it all started the ships is still and calmly floating through space. The bridge looks like hell and small fires have broken out across the ship.
"Ops Status report!"
The operations chief still in his chair remains motionless a large metal pipe nearly five feel long and 4 inches wide has pierced through his armor pinning him in place, killing him instantly. Another officer runs over to his station and quickly punches in station reports from across the ship.
"We have full power but our weapons and shields are off line, there are several fires all over the ship and crew are working to put those out. Hyperdrive is off line, Fold systems are down as is warp propulsion. Life support is good and we have sub-light engines functional. Casualty reports several crewmen injured and 5, er 6 dead."
"Make that 7"
Shadawar adds pulling a slumped over helmsman from his station. Apparently the panel didn't jus com close as I glance over to see a gaping wound in his neck.
"Fine get repairs underway, and a medical team up here." I tap the intercom button and call all available senior officers to the briefing room and once the last of them arrives we begin discussing how to proceed in looking for the lost Kryllian warship. According to our scans there is a habitable in this system that the ship could have made it too, and it only make sense to begin our search there. Sabrina informs me that our teleportation systems are completely shot and will need replacing as soon as we can get home assuming we can get home. Replication systems are similarly off line and we'll have to go to hard rations for the time being, and unless we can find somewhere to resupply our food stores we'll be out of food and water within a month. We can supplement using the systems on board my fighter and the shuttle so there's no immediate danger of running out of supplies any time soon. With the bridge cleared of debris and some makeshift repairs done I order the ship the nearest J type planet. The IGFW ranks J types as most similar to Earth but unfortunately the nearest planet capable of sustaining life is a type L which while livable is covered shore to shore in dense forest and jungle. A close scan reveals a crash site and a Kryllian Battleship. The ships markings and and working transponder reveal that it our wayward vessel, mostly intact but inoperable. I have everyone get ready to head planetside and meet me in the shuttle bay. The new shuttle is going to work today. Now while I have the capacity to evacuate small groups of up to 5 people at a time the shuttle doesn't have the capacity to transport the crew of over 1,000 expediently. Unless our telporters are repaired the evacuation could take a couple of days. I order a couple of squads down to the planet using my fighter and see if they can't salvage anything from the Kryllian wreckage that we might be able to retrofit to our ship. Sabrina is gonna earn her pay today.
I land the shuttle in a massive ruin not far from the crash site and we begin our scans there. Kryllians are reptilian and scanning for them proves to be difficult at best since this planet is teaming with reptilian life, some of which has decided to introduce itself. |

| Cervitaur

| Cervitaurs are deer-like centaurs with a humanoid torso attached where the neck of a deer would normally be. Like their bigger Equine cousins the Cervitaur are adept at hunting but are so much smaller that they themselves are often prey to larger predators like wolves and great cats. on some worlds they have developed technology to suit their needs. They have greater lung capacity than deer (having 2 pairs of lungs in each torso) and can thus run at top speed for much longer than normal deer. They have 5 stomachs although the first is for pre-digestion. they mate once per year and live in small tribes. Each tribe is led by one male who must prove his worth against other bucks in a contest of power each and every mating season with the victor winning the right to mate. It is possible for Cervitaurs to mate with other species though this is usually frowned upon. The offspring of such unions will typically have the lower torso of a cervitaur but the upper torso of the non Cervitaur parent. Such crossbreeds are shunned by other Cervitaurs. As a rule Cervitaurs are herbivares but some have been known to have an omnivore diet. |

| Hill dragons prefer the hill regions hence the name, Like all dragons they possess superior camouflage abilities. In combat they prefer to grab opponents and fly as high as possible letting their victim fall to its death. They can breathe a noxious gas of concentrated chlorine which even air filters and purifiers cannot screen out. They can bit with their ferocious teeth and rend even the toughest armor with their razor sharp talons. Like all dragons they are incredibly intelligent and may ally themselves with powerful creatures for mutual benefit. They are fiercely loyal if raised in a domestic setting and will happily allow themselves to be ridden. Unlike the fabled steed dragons however, they share no special bond with their riders. |

| Panterra is one of my oldest and dearest characters. Created in a lab, and designed to battle extreme threats to national security, Panterra's genetic makeup includes several genes from large predatory cats. His armor is composed of a synthetic adamantine and mythril (not to be confused with adamantium) which are woven into a fine mesh. He uses a variety of gadgets and hardware to complete his missions. Paterra is the leader of the group P.R.I.D.E. . |

| Emperor Analaeus Sathari
Obsidian Original Characters 2014/12/10 18:47
2339 1
In the aftermath of the Sathari Empire/Rebellion wars Anihilus the Traitor assumes his rightful place on the throne of the empire. Now as Emperor he can bring peace to the Sathari Galaxy, after 1,000 years of oppression under his father's reign. His first official proclamation: Obsidian Mask is made his High Justiciar as his reward for his pivotal role in overthrowing his father and for his unyielding loyalty, and for his sacrifice at the hands of Emperor Zakan himself.
For those making comparisons yes there is a lot of similarities between Star Wars'empire and the Sathari Empire. This is intentional though there are many differences. The analogue for Anakin remains essentially the same only he becomes Emperor, his wife does not die and in fact tries to save him from his dark side. Analaeus and Malice are the emperor's twin children and only Malice remains loyal to the empire after Analaeus' powers reach their full potential and open his eyes to the evil of his father and the empire's tyranny. The two worlds are similar but I mixed it up a little bit. |

| Celestial Elves, unlike many other elves they have few ties with nature but still maintain strong magical powers, their cities are Gigantic Spires vast and impressive by any standards. Technology has been almost completely replaced with magic in every aspect of life, even the youngest Celestial elves have some magical ability and Celestial elves boast the greatest magic schools known. The Celesti Empire is one of the more vast empires spanning hundreds of worlds...some of which could not support life until being terra-formed by Ancient magics now long forgotten, or at the very least well guarded. |

| Eants are the forest guardians of old and frequent the same worlds as Sylvan elves.though highly intelligent they keep only their own council and rarely interfere in the affairs of mortals. They appear much as large humanoid trees and within the five galaxies they are not unique as many sentient plants abound on multiple worlds. Though the Eants are thought to be the eldest of such species. They are not a space-faring species and NEVER leave their established home worlds...though a few have been recorded as having migrated via the occasional adventurers spacecraft. |

Obsidian Fantasy 2013/10/9 6:16

| Mountain Dragons are the largest of all dragons and are feared on every world on which they exist. At nearly 400 feet in length these mighty predators are incredibly intelligent and capable of leveling small settlements and outposts. Their tough hides are as durable as Mythril and are considered a non-conventional material and are thus practically unaffected by conventional weapons. These immense creatures breath fire like so many of their brethren with devastating effect. Their powerful teeth and claws are capable of mangling armored vehicles and their maw is large enough to swallow horses and other equines whole. On many worlds where they once thrived only skeletal remains can be found. Armies of Mages have been used to wipe out most of these creatures on many worlds, Mages being the one of the few creatures capable of bringing these creatures down |

| Cloud Dragon

| Cloud dragons are revered in much the same way as Earth Dolphins and for similar reasons. They have what can only be described as a kind heart and are helpful to creatures who are lost or in distress. They have been known to defend helpless victims from other dragons but have only done so for sentient beings. They can be found quite often with riders as they bond quickly and also easy to train. They will not serve cruel masters which has lead many Arcano-biologists to believe that they may be aligned to the forces of good though they are at a loss for how such a thing could be. Cloud dragons are among the largest and most powerful of the dragon species growing as large as 120 feet in length, though more than half of that is tail and neck. Like all dragons the possess a breath weapon however theirs is a cloud of gas that is electrically charged the gas holds it's cohesion well enough to be used at a distance of 400 feet while still retaining its potency. Because of their helpful nature they have earned the nickname "Luck Dragon". |

| The Rayal are a a reptilian species from the Raya system in the Andromeda Galaxy. They are roughly the same size as Solarans though they tend to be rather slender. Their technology is roughly the equivalent of the Intergalactic average and their society is comparable to Earth in most respects. There is little that is outstanding about Rayal save for the fact that they are nearly immune to most magical effects/spells to roughly 80 percent. As a result they have little interest in magic although they have studies Psionics in depth.The Raya System is a member of the IGFW in good standing and participated in the Millennium Wars for the IGFW. |

| The Zzakizt are reclusive xenophobes that live on the outer rim of the Canis Major Galaxy. The first encounter with their species went horribly and erupted in a war that lasted 50 years and cost millions of lives. Currently the IGFW holds a tentative peace treaty and guards their borders against IGFW citizens restricting passage to their borders. It is interesting to note that they fully recovered their numbers after the war within 12 years. They have a hive mentality and a Hive queen, though there are several thousand sub-queens which they call Droza. They ahve a very complex social system a for the most part life is indestinguishable from most other worlds. There are celebrity Drones and warriors a well as Droza. When their queen reaches the last years of her life she gives birth to a single successor, this queen possesses all of the knowledge and experience of the queen and is essentially the same being. The current queen is ten generations old the equivalent of being nearly 1,00 years old. |

They attack anything that moves on the surface above and are nearly invulnerable to all but the heaviest weapons. Not much is known about their habits or reproduction or even their life spans though some have been noted by scars as being thousands of years old. World recorded as being populated with Giant Worms are marked with hazard buoys and IGFW colonists are discouraged from establishing outposts on such worlds. |

| Dragon Arctic

| The Arctic Dragon is a fearsome predator, it's dark scales and white fur make for a bright contrast against the snowy plains of the regions these great creatures call home. Their diet is primarily Sea lions and Orca but they have been known to attack Polar bears and other large mammals. They are capable of spewing forth a stream of liquid nitrogen that can instantly freeze even the most durable materials rendering them as brittle as fine crystal. Their body temperature remains at a constant 50 degrees below zero Fahrenheit. Although they are fierce predators they have shown a tendency to befriend Solarans and other sentient species protecting them from attacks by other predators. As one might suspect they are quite susceptible to warm temperatures and fire based attacks even temperatures about 40 degrees Fahrenheit can be lethal over a long duration. |
