The stories our ancestors told us involve a great war between the angels and demons. But they both vanished before we took our first steps in becoming a true civilization. We now have space flight of our own. We have taken it upon ourselves now, to explore the Galaxy and learn the truth of the Angels and Demons, for it is said that their war will come again during the end times and we will be called upon by one side or the other to face the onslaught of the most fearsome deity in the heavens, Lazarus.
1st Month Roll: The first month will have no game effects. It is purely aesthetic, a sort of rundown of how well your people have been doing since the advent of faster than light technology.
1. Phyrexi Empire - 9 - Your people are extremely optimistic about the future of the Empire. Reaching out and colonizing the planets of Keitania and Zeskiri have boosted their morale and already petitions for new explorations have been made.
2. The Voynich - 2 - Times have been rough since landing on the new homeworld. Adapting to the new realities which they find themselves in have been difficult, but the future will be better than the present
3. Ni'em Nation - 7 - Your first interstellar travels took you to some pretty amazing worlds, but they were relatively close to your homeworld. One enterprising captain of a ship decided to try and tweak the coordinates he was sending to the Mass Relay. Upon doing so, he propelled himself and his crew to a completely new cluster. Near one of the planets revolving about its star was an enormous space station. He sent back this information to an excited public and awaited further orders.
4. Arahaelben Interplanetary Republic - 8 - The Discovery of Eezo has boosted your people's understanding of almost everything. They are more than ready to continue their quest for knowledge in the vastness of space and eagerly await the discoveries of your next exploratory mission.
5. Mundane - 9 - It has been two years since your people discovered the Citadel. They have been uploading information to its archives and preparing the station for more to arrive. The current inhabitants of the station, aside from yourself, are a strange green race which ignore you and go about maintaining the station. As a new month turns, deep space sensors detect a ship exiting the Relay that does not belong to your kind.
6. The Chreolite Triarchy - 9 ( 10 - 1 ) - In an act of unprecedented unity, the various factions upon the surface of your homeworld have decided to work together this month. They wish to reach for a new system to expand their own hives, but wish to exploit the resources of other hives to do so.
7. Lathre Sidhi - 6 - Across your system, signs of the Heralds are discovered, however none reveal their homeworld or what became of them. Your people are intrigued.
8. The Dominion - 10 - Never before have your people felt so confident in their abilities to create an interstellar empire. They march unopposed into the stars as new information constantly is being sent to the homeworld of new, exploitable worlds just within reach.
9. Vossos Nostri - 6 - The Apox Clans are finding that colonizing new worlds for their resources is an easy task. The Angels and Demons left plenty of resources behind after their own conflicts and now the galaxy is open to the clans. However, the mass relay in your home system is not a Primary Relay and thus, there appears to be a signal you can send to it to take you to the Primary relay of this Cluster.
10. Celestine Ascendancy - 5 - The Eldrazi continue their already accelerated march to the stars to learn what the Elder Ones had in store for them.
