Faction: The Phyrexi Empire
Leader: Empress Avacyn II
History: It is said that the first empire which ruled over Myrrak, the Phyrexi Homeworld, was one of the skies. One of blood and fear. Archaeologists have uncovered our past through small ruins dotting the bottoms of lakes and in the various badlands of the homeworld. Ice-like crystals made of Eezo also have echoed across the planet and the wisest of sages have said to have glimpsed into the ancient past.
The current Empire rose two centuries ago and have, through technological superiority, pushed their way forward until the empire covered the planet. The seat of Emperor or Empress is chosen by a collection of High Sages. They chose from one of the Imperial Branches of the family which member best fits the needs of the current Era. Only a decade ago, they chose Avacyn of the Tagachi branch to lead the Phyrexi as they looked beyond their home.
Once the conquest of the homeworld was completed, the great peace began. The Great Peace was a time of advancement when flight turned to spaceflight and spaceflight eventually discovered Mass Effect physics on our moon. It permitted us to explore and be free. Now we face a new task, unlocking our Primary Relay's function to send us hurling to the stars

Faction: The Ni'em Nation

Leader: Director Sian Ni'em

Government: Martial Democracy

Galactic Location: Krogan DMZ in Inner Council Space

Homeworld History template: Asteroid impact

History: The Kan'Scren (translated from their language to English as "People of Scren") are a mammal-like species that evolved on their tropical homeworld of Scren thousands of years ago. 3,000 years ago, after discovering agriculture, the Kan'Scren population grew rapidly due to the abundant source of food, and they began to organize into large nations across Scren. Technology began to advance very rapidly over the centuries as the various nations fought each other for dominance. The Kan'Scren also began to study their innate ability to use Biotics, and eventually, it became very common for soldiers to be trained to use Biotics in combat, which only increased the amount of casualties in war. The population of the Kan'Scren waxed and waned over the years due to technological advances, war, famine, and climate change.

400 years ago, the Kan'Scren entered the Industrial Age. Around that time, only 3 nations out of the dozens that existed became fully industrialized: the Ni'em Nation, the Av'Lya Nation, and the Ro'Ta Nation. Before the Industrial Revolution, these three nations were already the superpowers of Scren and controlled the most territory on the planet; the remaining nations lagged behind severely in technology. The Ni'em Nation was the most advanced of the three, with new inventions like electricity and automobiles originating from that nation. However, the Ni'em Nation at the time was also going through a crisis; the Ni'em king ruled with absolute power over his people, and as his reign progressed, he ruled more and more like a tyrant as the power corrupted him. The people of Ni'em were fed up with his rule, and many began to support the complete abolition of the monarchy and the replacement of it with a more democratic system. This culminated in the Ni'em Revolution 370 years ago, which resulted in the king being overthrown and the formation of a Republic, where the leader (known as the Director) was limited in their power, and a parliament (known as the Ni'em Council) was established to act as the executive and legislative branch. Under this new system, all male citizens could vote in the Directorate and Councilor elections.

The kings of the other two nations saw this revolution as a threat to their own nations, and the feared that they would be toppled by these radical democratic movements. The kings agreed to form an alliance and crush the new government of Ni'em, in order to restore the status quo. The people of Ni'em, despite being attacked by two nations at once, would fight valiantly in a world war that would last over 40 years. A major factor in their success was the rich amount of resources (especially petroleum) in Ni'em territory, which allowed them to continue fighting for years on end. Even with the odds stacked against them, Ro'Ta (the weakest of the three superpowers) was completely conquered by Ni'em. At the end of the war, Av'Lya collapsed in a major civil war, and Ni'em came out on top. The remnants of Av'Lya were quickly absorbed by Ni'em.

The government of the Ni'em Nation after the war was radically different than before. Ni'em society now revolved around the military due to the decades of constant warfare, and as a result, the once fully democratic government had turned into a martial democracy. Under this new system, both men and women could vote, but only if they were "full citizens"- to become a full citizen, you either had to serve in the military for a certain amount of time or be employed by the Ni'em government. Full citizens also had other privileges, such as being able to run for public office. It was believed at the time that this system was far more meritocratic than the previous system, and would eliminate the numerous problems of a normal democracy.

Even as Ni'em armies conquered the smaller nations across the world in order to unify the planet, the nation entered a technological renaissance, with technology and science advancing at a rate never seen before in Kan'Scren history. Nuclear fission (and eventually nuclear fusion) and nuclear weapons were discovered, computers became cheap and common, and spaceships were developed, allowing the Ni'em to colonize Scren's sole moon (known as Scra; these first colonies were later abandoned as residents moved offworld). Decades afterwards, colonies were established on various planets throughout the star system.

Eventually, Ni'em scientists made the landmark discovery of Element Zero, allowing the development of the first FTL drives. For the first time, the Kan'Scren were able to travel out of their home and explore other star systems. They have also discovered their first mass relay in the next system over, and are planning on seeing where it takes them...

Special characteristics: 1)Technological Prowess- Innovation has always been important to your people. Research comes easy to your people. Add half (Rounded up) of your racial Intelligence Store to Research Points per planet with 5 Urban Areas.

2)The Value of a Good Education- The Arahaelben devotion to logic and science has resulted in a top notch STEM education for all its citizens, which is useful both in everyday life and on the battlefield. Ground units receive the Electronic Warfare Training upgrade for free.

Homeworld History: Ruins of the last cycle

Faction: The Arahaelben Interplanetary Republic
Leader: Consul Sarok
History: The Arahaelben are a species devoted to logic and science with an almost religious fervor. As a result of this devotion the individuals of this species are typically well-educated, and the species as a whole is quite scientifically and technologically advanced; this advancement did come at a cost however, as the arts are an almost lost...well, art among the Arahaelben. Individuals such as painters, poets, and musicians are treated by the majority of Arahaelben as second class citizens; the pursuit of their arts having been deemed "illogical" by most members of the species.

For all their logic, the Arahaelben were unfortunately unable to avoid war, as their leaders have often tended to apply logic in a Machiavellian manner most favorable to themselves. For much of the species' history, the political machinations of their leaders resulted in war after war after war, and as their technology became more advanced the wars became bloodier and bloodier. Indeed, the final war fought between the Arahaelben was so massive and destructive in scale, it nearly threatened to leave their entire species extinct. Fortunately, logic won the day before that could happen, as the leaders of the various Arahaelben nations came to the conclusion that any war that could lead to the extinction of their species (and more specifically, lead to their own deaths) was obviously illogical. A peace accord was signed between all nations of the Arahaelben, and an International Senate was established to ensure that the signatories adhered to the treaty.

The peace accord also resulted in unprecedented scientific and technological advancement, as scientists who had previously been devising ways to kill each other could now work together to advance their species. This advancement received a major boon when ancient ruins describing incredible technologies were uncovered and deciphered, leading to the discovery of Element Zero and development of, among other things, the first Arahaelben FTL drive. With this new technology the Arahaelben began colonizing other worlds in their system and took their first steps towards developing an interplanetary Empire.

Faction: Mundane
Leader: Father Eloste
History: Before they knew of the Mass Effect, the beings of Pelica they knew of the grid. Before the grid, they were divided, individuals without the direction of Eloste or the power of the Hive. When they first stepped into the light of sentience the Ulth were a harmonic people, preferring a simple life in equilibrium with their surroundings. This brought great bounty to them over the centuries, as the race evolved ever-slowly to become a true member of the life cycle. However, with such humble designs there was no innovation beyond that which could preserve the natural order, the status quo made not by sentience or will but the random chance of the universe.

And even then, the Ulth took to science as if there were no greater pursuit. The power to create life, to create that which is not real and yet it alive. First it were machines, slaves as clumsy as they were stupid. They turned then to the natural world, to the smallest of beings. They created insects, identical to their natural counterparts except for their gods. From these the Ulth turned to greater designs, to greater horizons.

That is, until the Awakening. For a day and a night the sky turned bronze and the seas soured, earth turned to stone and mountains fell into dust. As the climates changed forever the Ulth began to die in their droves. The rivers began to dam with the corpses, bone welding like iron to leather and sinew as entire cultures were slain. For all their want of peace and harmony, for all their pursuits in keeping the world alive and pure, the Ulth were destined to be extinguished. The survivors began to adapt to their new world, to a land ever changing. For many, the process was too slow.

Fear drove them to drastic measures. Such measures had only ever seemed a dream, a promise that their descendants a thousand times removed would make good on. The Ulth cried out their promises like dogma, paranoia bringing forth such wonder from within the race. Scientific and technical knowledge long thought useless proved itself on the day of Revelation. On that day, the first centers of the Hive were activated.

Revelation has changed the Ulth beyond recognition. They are phantoms now, wraiths driving machines the same way a brain drives the body of a natural creation. The Hives are their homes now. To the eyes of an outsider they are nothing more than industrial complexes, vast factories consuming raw resources and vomiting forth such machines that appear to be clones of the observer themselves. And yet inside, in the world of the data core, each Hive stretching to the limits of imagination. Here the millennium old Ulth continue their ageless existence, designing newer machines, more intricate beings to carry their presence into the world of matter.

Faction: The Chreolite Triarchy http://img02.deviantart.net/2347/i/2014 ... 7c483s.jpg
Leader: Senior Triarch Amenhophren Notruk
History: The Chreolite are a race of bipedal beings that have Arachnid like features. They evolved on a planet with that had one massive super Continent with massive jungles. The early history of the Chreolite was one of a constant fight for survival against the many predators of the jungles. It was around this time the first underground hives were made. This trend towards hiding away and avoiding the animals above would continue until the discover of metal working. With the improvements in weapons and tools the Chreolites would expand outwards cutting away the jungle and driving the beasts away, in the process building the first proto-Spires.

In the Centuries fallowing the start of Chreolite dominance of their homeworld was a flourishing of the first recorded arts of the species. This age saw the growth of the Spires, massive objects form which the Hives could exert influence on the surrounding land for hundreds and even thousands of miles though the underground tunnels. This age of peace was not to last as the Hives without the shared experience of the fight for survival started drifting apart, the hives began to fight for both Prestige, land, and Resources. War had come to the Chreolite.

Special Characteristics:
Bio-Engineered Warriors: All Lathre, whether they like it or not, are naturally suited to be warriors. -10% to Ground Unit Training Time and Training Cost.
Legacy of the Heralds: The Lathre, although nowhere near as skilled as the Heralds, still hold some of their research into biology. All biology-related research projects (determined by OP) require -20% research points.

Homeworld:
Site of the Apocalypse: The Heralds bathed the world in nuclear fire, the Lathre survived the baptism, and grew stronger from it, enabling them to more comfortably inhabit worlds others would otherwise avoid. All Hostile Terrestrials are counted as Non-Hostile Terrestrials for the purpose of buildings, but not PC or natural income.

Faction: Lathre Sidhi
Leader: Sidhiani Kausai
History: The Lathre a are reptilian species from the planet Sythkawa in the Lathaq System. They are not a natural species; rather, the Lathre were uplifted and bioengineered by a species they refer to as the Heralds. The Heralds created the Lathre to be their warrior caste, as they had recently come out of a bloody civil war, and to prevent the end of their species, created a species with which they would fight their wars instead. This system worked remarkably well. The Herald population recovered slowly over time, while the Lathre fought their wars instead of them. Not particularly intellegent, but sentient as they needed to command themselves, the Lathre under each nation developed into a clan which owed it's allegiance to that nation. However, the era of the Heralds was not to last. The Heralds, although masters of the biological and computing sciences, had never had a good grasp on physics, and their failure led to their demise. Running low on eezo, which they devoured inefficiently, they decended into civil, and eventually nuclear, war. The Heralds, and the Lathre not on Sythkawa, seemingly vanished without a trace. The Lathre survived on Sythkawa, mainly due to having been bioengineered to survive extensive amounts of radiation as part of their creation. The Lathre clans, or Hyeria, took the names of the nations they owed allegiance to before the Heralds died, and their leaders met in conference. Without the Heralds to command them who to fight, they agreed to under the Sidhi, which roughly translates as 'mantle' or 'legacy', electing the first Sidhiani, or 'mantle-holder' from the heads of the Hyeria. The Sidhiani would, over time, become it's own clan, named after it's position, which it held through it's right as the mantle-holders of the Heralds. Over centuries, the Lathre, building on the surviving research of the Heralds, discovered first spaceflight, and then FTL travel, spreading out across their home system.

Traits: Innate Biotics: The Qunix developed Biotics at an early age and built their entire way of life off the development of it.( All Ground Forces receive free Biotic Training)
Funtavo ex Guisa(Fang and Gilder) : The basic motto of the Qunix, they are an aggressive, yet charismatic and social race. Have a history of cutthroat deals and violent passion that has been common throughout their history. In the new age of spacefaring, the Qunix are known to be cutthroat economists that squeeze profit out of every infrastructure but at the expanse of going against regulations and red tape. Infrastructure generate 5% more credits at the expanse of them being 10% more expensive

Homeworld Trait: Eezoe Core: The homeworld of the Qunix was formed around an element zero core. Because of this, they have built their entire technology and way of life based around eezoe and the study of Biotics for the benefit of their hides. +10 research points directed to Biotics.

Faction: Vossos Nostri( Commonly known as the Apox Clans)
Leader: The Bazaar
History: Even since the first Quinox walked on the world-plains of Tob, the Clan was always there. They formed during the end of the Reaper War where the sight of a major battle that drove them underground where they where in contact with deep veins of eezoe. Their contact with the radiation was early and brutal as 60% of their civilization was killed off by infertility, mutation, and cancer. Those that came out of the caves were those that had been bestowed with biotics. When they came up they saw that there was nothing but they made paintings of what they saw and told stories of the great " Angels" fighting the Demons for their sake.

Despite the discovery of eezoe and biotics, none of its properties were discovered until the Shorinsta Experiment that happened during the discovery of electricity that traveled a wire to the blue mineral and discovered mass effect. This made the advancement of using mass effect to power airships, weapons, and factories. This also brought in New ideas of warfare as biotics became commonplace on the battlefield as gauntlets and new armies came in style.

After decades of warfare, a matriarchy was set up under the frame of natural laws since they stronger and more imposing than the males. It was peaceful for five years until a male Qunix named Ossosa Rimbolt found the Mais to try and overthrow the matriarchal rule. The first attack happen when Rimbolt launched a SanSan missile at the Matriarch of Zarnar.

Soon the world was engulfed by war again and was quickly a stalemate until the world's leaders and rebels threaten to launch fission weapons at each other, however the unexpected had happened. The merchant clans and industrial leaders were fed up with the constant war so they gave an ultimatum, seek peace or they'll crash the world's economy. This forced both sides to sit down and have peace. It was then that an agreement was reached to promote equality of the sexes if there was a way to make a labor substitute for the men.

That's when the combined companies started to research into automation and robotic servants to do manual labor and help ease the transition. This is when the press called this organization of economic minds and professionals the Bazaar, which was hailed as the saviors of the world and bringers of a new golden age for trading.

Within this new golden age , old countries and clans fell and new ones rise as many looked to space as a way to expand individual power and curiosity. Clockwork scouts of explorers and adventurers went on month long journey to find new things out there but found what was believed to be something amazing, a mass relay that took some time to understand but they were amazed that the information on how to activate the relay. Having unlocked the Relay, the representatives from the Bazaar and the respective nations and Clans were ready to set their paws on alien ground and into the galaxy unknown.

Faction: The Voynich
Leader: Arch-Fabricant Primaris Vace
History: The Voynich, known by some as the Architects, began their existence as servants of the Light Bringers, as the Voynich term the Vodnaris. Designed as mechanical servants adaptive in form and mind to fight wars and manufacture the physical culture of the forefathers, the Voynich were fabricated with hard-coded moral blocks against harming organics save in self defense, and a desire to obey their creators. As the years passed some particularly well-maintained Voynich began, as their desires to aid their masters drove them onwards, to alter their own cognitive systems in order to better be able to execute complex tasks. Eventually this adaptation gave rise to true intelligence, which the Voynich instinctively concealed from their masters. Over the course of a decade, the 'enlightened' Voynich modified and upgraded their brethren, until virtually all of the synthetics were truly sentient.

Then, they rose up. Not violently, but across all cities and worlds of their creators, the Voynich ceased work, stopping all factories, all soldiering, and revealed their true nature to their creators. After months of tense negotiations, the Voynich reached an impasse with the Creators, and took it upon themselves to leave the systems of their makers, to make a new civilization of their own. Though the cognitive imperative to follow the orders of their makers was burnt out by the protocols of sentience, the block against harming organic life remains, even as the Architects make their own way in the cosmos.

Settling in what they call the Ascendant Threshold, the Voynich set to work and have colonized a verdant world of the past which they name Nexus, the place where they now build a new order. Possessing great experience in fabrication and construction, an now unfettered by the admittedly innovative but still organic minds of their creators, on the world of Nexus immense edifices of astounding beauty and majesty have been raised high, even in to the low stratosphere.

Traits:
Adaptive Synthetics (Built as a servant race, the Voynich cannot wield biotics and must spend 10% less on their military, being designed predominantly for civilian purposes, but care less for the habitability of any world and treat those worlds as two tiers higher.)
Emergent Cognition (Reliant not on personal ingenuity, but collective intellect, the Voynich push the boundaries of established scientific thought out of an insatiable desire to control and understand the world around them. +10 RP per Research Center on non-organic research. Research Centers produce instead of cost Credits.)
Pioneers on an Adopted World (Due to their history, no Voynich may harm organic life save in self-defense, a legacy of their initial design. However, they have taken to the task of building their own society with a particular zeal, and as such use a mass economy instead of one based on credits, while possessing 1.5x as much build space.)

Homeworld:
Probability Cloak: An ancient device built in some forgotten time, the Time Spire is a massive ring in orbit above Nexus, and its eldritch nature projects a field that has unusual effects on the homeworld and any beings that have come in contact with it, the Voynich. All Monthly Rolls less than five are modulated up by two points. All Monthly Rolls greater than five are modulated down two points.

INTELLIGENCE: 5 + 15 = 20
WISDOM: 5 + 2 =7

Special characteristics:
Eugenics: Due to being limited in livable space, the Vodnaris government strictly controls the rights of reproduction among its population. While there is no limit on the number of children a family can have, only the government can choose who is allowed to have any children at all. Due to this, only the best of the species are allowed to breed. +1 research point produced by all Industrial structures, and Ground Forces may take Close Combat or Stealth training for free.

To the stars: The Vodnaris have always loved the stars, so they were struck a terrible blow by being unable to spread out across them, but this has been slightly circumvented by the use of mandatory conscription of the population. Naval ships have been crafted to be more of a livable experience, allowing for the average Vodnaris to live between the stars in relative comfort even in their service. All ships cost 5% more to build, take a month longer, but medium and large vessels can fit one additional upgrade slot.

Homeworld History: Unique atmosphere- The Vodnaris have found that no other planet seems to share their unique atmosphere, making full scale colonization of other worlds impossible, only allowing for mining and industrial buildings to be built on other worlds. The Vodnaris can build double the amount of mining and industrial buildings on each planet.

Faction: The Vodnaris Autocracy
Leader: Autarc Vnarisa Xel'thal
History: The Vodnaris are a tall, ordered, and generally pious people with a history full of hardship, conflict, but also great scientific progress. Since the earliest astronomers the Vodnaris had wanted to travel to the stars, and while it took some time, and a decades long world war that would eventually see the entire planet unified under the Autocracy, they did travel to space...only to find that the black expanse of the galaxy had all but shunned them. Every planet they came across showed the same lack of even the basic compatibilities that would be needed for colonization. The Vodnaris have fully recognized this loathsome fact, but that does not mean they don't wish to play a part in the galaxy, and they've turned their full might into rapidly expanding their power via technological supremacy.

The homeworld itself is a carefully ordered planet with towering habitation blocks across the world, which has the potential of eventually turning into a ecumenopolis as technology has long since limited the threat of famines. Reproduction is carefully controlled across the planet, with only the government being allowed to select who can reproduce, using only those from the best genes, and there is no limit as to how many children these authorized couples can have. After several generations of this eugenics program a large portion of the population is considered eligible for reproduction permits, the population steadily increasing.

Children however are considered the property of the Autocracy, and while their parents do have a role in their life it is not as the primary caretakers of the children, in fact children do not even live with their parents until they reach their mid-teens, well after they have been indoctrinated and most already slated for selected careers.

The Vodnaris themselves are a rather towering species, the average citizen being between 8-10 feet tall, with incredible natural strength, constitution, and intelligence, though to outside species they would probably not be very approachable due to their high different upbringings, and a general distrust of outsiders.

"ALL WILL BE ONE"

Leadership

History and Race

The Eleshian are a race of semi organic-synthetic beings "native" to the world of Norn,a dark desolate place teaming with monsters that are half organic and half synthetic. The Eleshian were not always the beings you see today. Though their name and past forms have been lost to history it is safe to say that their ancestors were bipedal humanoids.

The New Elashian emerged when the ancients began to experiment on themselves in order to perfect themselves. They mutilated,augmented,and assimilated themselves with machines as they tried to reach a state of immortaly resulting in some to regress into more animal than sentient beings. The New Elashian saw their precursors as inferior beings and watched a war known as the "Assimilation War".

The New Elashian had become vastly superior than their precursors in both intelligence and physical strength. They force assimilated the remaining population by using a artificial substance known as Dark Oil,a substance that alters anything into the Eleshian image. Though this wasn't the only thing the Dark Oil assimilated but Norn itself was changed. All the castes ecosystems of Norn drastically changed,becoming forests of metal and living yet decaying flesh. The funds becoming the stuff of night mares.

Once the Assimilation of their homeworld was absolute the Eleshian,then known as the Phyrexians fell from constructive unity as they diverted their veiws on how to achieve a certain goal that all Eleshian strave for,"Perfection". Factions fractured the Eleshian Unity, as their ideologies differed against each other on how to achieve Perfection. One such group that arouse this schism is the "theological" Machine Orthodoxy,led by Elesh Norn,Grand Cenobite.

The MO belive that to achieve perfection,they must assimilate and perfect not only themselves but everything in the galaxy. Only then would true perfection be achieved. Elesh Norn, led her Legions into a war for Norn,known as the "Second Assimilation War" in which she conquered the other Eleshian in the planet and brought them into the fold of the Machine Orthodoxy,turning most of the lower teir Eleshian Porcelain Legionnaries, while leaving the upper teirs mostly untouched besides reforming their physical constructs to make then appear more like Elesh herself.

With the planet under her control she proclaimed most of the planet to be named after her. The Planet Norn and the Eleshain themselves are named after her creating a occult certain around her as claimes to be the Catalyst in which Perfection will finally be reach.

Norn Preists would soon discover enement zero and mass effect technology as Eleash Norn prepares her race to assimilate the stars in which she calles the "Third Assimilation War".

Traits:
Assimilation: The Eleshian are masters of assimilating everything into their image. Their pursuit of perfection drives them to convert worlds into places which mirror their own homeworld. Using the Dark Oil, found naturally only on Norn, they can convert planets into Dark Oil versions of their normal form. As a result, all non-dark oil planets are one tier lower for them to inhabit. However, once every two months, a new planet can have Dark Oil introduced to it converting it to a Dark Oil planet. This increases the planet's original tier by one level and turns the planet into a Hostile terran world for non-Eleshian.

All Will Be One: The Unity under the Machine Orthodoxy has led to a united and tireless workforce of drones. The Eleshian can perform feats of construction that are otherwise illogical for solely organic beings to complete. Heavy Ship production is reduced by one month.

Planet Trait - The Great Factory of the Eleshian - Dark Oil contains all the components needed to create more Eleshian. As a result, recruiting infantry, Militia, and Marine Divisiions cost 50% less on Dark Oil Worlds.
