(Backstory: Bastet, a daughter of Ra and Isis, was born into royalty on Kolob, alongside her siblings Sekhmet and Hathor. As a child, she frequently accompanied her father Ra on journeys to Duat, a desolate moon rich in the mineral Souldium, which was formed from the scales shed by a massive snake, Apophis. This ore was essential for their armors. Bastet and Ra often risked their lives collecting these scales, waking Apophis in the process.

At the age of one hundred, Bastet faced a unique challenge: to kill Apophis alone. She journeyed to Duat with Ra, and after a long battle lasting a month, she believed she had killed the serpent. However, as she lay near death, the Youheb Cat armor saved her with its life-support systems. Bastet's victory was celebrated, but Apophis soon reawakened, leading to another battle involving Thor. The snake fled, its new lair unknown.

Bastet later prepared to leave Kolob, adorned in a regal white robe, a Souldium crown, and Azurite cat ears. She joined her friend Anubis aboard the ship Manu, taking charge of maintenance and engineering. However, a tragic malfunction destroyed Kolob, leaving Bastet isolated in her training room for days. Upon release, she learned of the catastrophe and dedicated herself to comforting Anubis, who struggled with the trauma.

Upon arriving on Earth, Bastet and her family influenced early human civilizations, with Bastet being worshiped as a goddess of home, fertility, and childbirth. Her mythos included protecting the pharaohs and battling chaos, akin to her battles with Apophis. Over time, she shifted her role to a goddess of love and the home, sharing her stories and teachings.

However, the moral decline in Egypt, including enslavement and torture, infuriated Bastet and Sekhmet. They unleashed the plagues of Exodus and helped slaves escape, actions for which Ra punished them.

During World War II, Bastet protected Kolnian artifacts in Belgium from Nazi capture. Disguised in her Youheb Cat armor, she warned American soldiers of an impending German attack, but was unable to prevent the massacre. Feeling responsible, she engaged in combat with the Germans, successfully protecting the artifacts but at great personal cost.

The war's atrocities, especially the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, horrified Bastet and her people. The Kolnians questioned the morality of their creations, reflecting on the devastating consequences of their technologies being used for destruction.)

(World: Kolob, is a great planet, residing near the center of the galaxy. It once hosted a thriving civilization on the border of harnessing the stars called the Kolnians. These beings were like us humans, they loved, they cried, and they formed families, but they were peaceful with one another and always looked forward to a better future.

Their star, Alpha, was the center of a stellar system, conformed by other smaller stars that had even smaller stars orbiting them, each with a different set of planets. This civilization tried harnessing Alpha's power, but each time it was met with disappointment. Their swarms often ended up falling into it, so they had to be ingenious. They built a set of rings around the star, achieving success.

These rings had a major flaw though, they stored too much energy, and the Kolnians never realized. The Kolnians only used a small percentage of Alpha, never enough to fully drain the rings from its energy, and so when they tried moving to the other stars orbiting Alpha, the rings collapsed and all the excess energy they stored was sent to Kolob, incinerating all life in the surface.

Four ships were sent to the stars, Manu, Shangri-la, Eden, and Yggdrasil. However, the people in them could only weep and watch in horror how their home was burnt alive, and torn past recovery.

The Kolnians traveled to the star Omega, which is our sun. Omega is the fourth and youngest star in the stellar system, only four billion years old, unlike Alpha, which is as old as the universe. The survivors used the massive power of the four ships to create Earth, Venus, and Mars. However, Venus and Mars did not manage to thrive.

Since Earth was the only thriving planet, they settled on it and made humanity in an attempt to recreate what had been lost in Kolob. For a while it worked, but the first humans fought amongst themselves. From Mesopotamia to the fall of the Roman Empire, the Kolnians tried giving the humans multiple chances but ultimately gave up on us and returned to their ships, watching over us and trying to guide us with subtlety to a better future.)
