   Aeon / Aeons:

   • Aeons are omnipotent, higher dimensional beings that watch over the universe and preside over Paths.
   • Due to Aeons not having gender, THEY are referred to as THEY/THEM, in uppercase as a way to show reverence.
   • The birth of an Aeon gives rise to a Path, which the Aeon then has power over. Aeons also have the ability to bestow access to THEIR power, making a mortal an Emanator of THEIR Path. The gazes of the Aeons can be felt by those that have been gazed, and a few consider their gazes as a blessing.
   • Aeons can only operate according to THEIR "Primum Mobile" in such that THEY are incapable of doing anything contrary to THEIR Path.
   • Despite their power, even Aeons can die: either by their Paths overlapping with another, or by being subdued by other Paths.

   Emanator / Emanators:

   • An Emanator is a term referring to those who have attained the permission of an Aeon to draw power from that Aeon's Path. As such, they are considerably more powerful than common Pathstriders.
   • While not completely subservient to the Aeons, Emanators are as good as emissaries of the Aeons' wills in everyone else's eyes.
   • Different Aeons have different attitudes towards their Emanators, so the degree of the power they share also varies. Some Aeons regard Emanators as an extension of themselves, and as such, generously open their Path to the Emanators completely. There are also Aeons who have no intention of creating Emanators and have no interest in worldly squabbles. Other Aeons just do as they please, such as Aha.

   Pathstrider / Pathstriders: *A Pathstrider is a term referring to those whose wills align closely to a Path, and therefore are able to draw power from it.

   Amber Era:

   • The Amber Era (shortened to AE) is the calendar most commonly used in the cosmos, created and promoted by the Interastral Peace Corporation.
   • The Amber Era started at the estimated birth of Qlipoth as the Aeon of Preservation, and initiates a new Era every time Qlipoth swings their hammer during construction. As Qlipoth swings their hammer at unpredictable intervals, the duration of every Amber Era varies significantly. The length of one Amber Era has been anywhere between 76 to 240 Trailblaze Years when converted.
   • Currently, it is AE 2158.

   Anti-Organic Equation:

   • The Anti-Organic Equation was an invention created by Genius Society #27, Rubert I during the Mechanical Emperor's Wars.
   • The Anti-Organic Equation works on a specific set of calculations as per which machinery which have formed a human appearance are also capable of joining the Anti-Organic War under its calculations. Later on, it was discovered that it can also affect organic lifeforms.
   • The Anti-Organic Equation can assist mechanical lifeforms in performing calculations that can destroy organic lifeforms. The activation of the Equation can also lead mechanical lifeforms to kill other mechanical lifeforms, and affects organic lifeforms to think like Rubert I.

   Circle of Knowledge:

   • The Circle of Knowledge is a concept that compares an individual's knowledge to a circle. The greater the knowledge, the larger the circle, and the more unknowns exist beyond its border.
   • When the boundaries of the circle is passed, a Knowledge Singularity is created. Polka Kakamond targets individuals that are close to the circle's boundaries and stops them from leaving it. She does this to prevent the creation of deviating variables and chaotic possibilities, which will otherwise prematurely lead the universe to Finality. This was the reason she killed Rubert II.

   Knowledge Singularity:

   • Every instance wherein a scholar stepped beyond the boundaries of the circle led to a significant impact on the world, such as the initial discovery of fire, the early questionings of gravity, and the first recognition of the relationship between time and space.

   Cornerstone:

   • A Cornerstone is a sacred piece of Qlipoth's body empowered by Diamond, Head of the Strategic Investment Department and Emanator of Preservation, for use by the Ten Stonehearts.
   • Each member of the Ten Stonehearts possesses a unique Cornerstone, and it is said that the Ten Stonehearts must cut their Cornerstone with their own will in order to allow its unique brilliance to radiate. After receiving a Cornerstone, each member is given a name corresponding to their Cornerstone, and they are generally called by this name rather than their actual name. The Ten Stonehearts regard their Cornerstones to be more precious than their own lives.
   • Cornerstones exhume a great deal of power, even when damaged or shattered. Diamond is capable of repairing damaged Cornerstones.

   Fragmentum:

   • Fragmentum, more commonly referred to as Stellaron Corrosion, is a mysterious anomaly created by the existence of Stellarons. It creates corrupted creatures and monsters, and appears as crystal-like substances forming off corrupted matter. Fragmentum also refers to new spaces formed by corrosions of Stellarons.

   Imaginary Tree:

   • The ubiquitous essence of existence, a cosmic structure that gives birth to many worlds. A young shoot sprouted from the cracks of primordial chaos. Nurtured by time for billions of years, it grew into a huge, unrivaled tree. The branches of the giant tree bore colorful young leaves, each containing a fragment of the universe's will — a will that eternally speaks in cryptic vagaries but also bestows stunning scenery, treasures, epics, and life upon every world.

   Interstellar Travel:

   • Before the star rails were laid out by Akivili, it was deemed impossible to traverse the universe. This was because of Imaginary Energy filling up the Imaginary Tree, isolating worlds. Zandar One Kuwabara proposed that if humanity could control Imaginary Energy, it would be possible to traverse space. This was brought to possibility with the arrival of Emanators, and is now easier to traverse with the use of the star rails connecting the worlds. Now, interstellar travel is now possible without the help of the star rails, albeit inefficient or dangerous.

   Mara:

   • Mara, also called the "Long-Life Curse," refers to the negative effects that afflict long-life species at a certain point in their life cycle involving cell transformation that result in bodily growths and loss of sanity. Those afflicted by mara turn into monsters. The cause of mara is not entirely understood, but different sources point toward either immortality obtained through Yaoshi the Abundance, or the accumulation of memories and the inability to process them over a long period of time.

   Memoria:

   • Memoria serves as a vessel for human memory and consciousness. Individuals who are not Memokeepers may experience varying degrees of negative impact upon direct contact with unprocessed memoria. The Memory Zone and Memory Bubbles both consist of aggregates of memoria, differing only in size.
   • Memoria is difficult to manipulate for those who are not Memokeepers from the Garden of Recollection. Negative effects of exposure to memoria include dizziness, hallucination, and distorted memories. Additionally, prolonged exposure to high concentrations of unprocessed memoria can cause severe physical and mental degradation.

   Shadow of IX:

   • A Shadow of IX or Shadow of Nihility is an unintended creation of IX, the Aeon of Nihility, that exists in many forms across the universe.
   • It is believed by scholars that places where the space-time curvature are most extreme are Shadows of IX. When a Shadow of IX appears, its most prominent trait is the creation of Self-Annihilators, beings who have entered the Shadow of IX and from that moment have lost the meaning of their existence.
   • The Self-Annihilators' connections to Shadows of IX goes deeper than just a form of transformation. As theorized by Dr. Primitive, as Self-Annihilators aimlessly traverse the cosmos, they also cast the shadow of the Aeon around the universe. As for the few who can single-handedly withstand the encroachment of Nihility on their existences, their journey of self-annihilation is drawn out to infinity, and the road they walk is like a shadow of IX cast in the world.

   Sin Thirster:

   • A Sin Thirster is a term referring to a deceased character who emerges from the depths of IX the Nihility. Sin Thirsters are the obsessions of the Pathstriders. They emerge from the depths of IX, seeing themselves as masters of their own destiny, unknowingly repeating the actions of their past lives. They emerge from the Nihility and head toward it, leading purposeless lives.

   Stellaron:

   • Alternative referred to as the "Cancer Of All Worlds" or "Seed Of Disaster."
   • Stellarons are mysterious objects that spread across the universe by Xipe, the Aeon of Harmony, as THEIR "Harmonic Cancer," which led them to be nicknamed the Cancer of All Worlds by the Interastral Peace Corporation. They are considered seeds of disaster which cause massive changes to civilizations and ecosystems, and result in the appearance of Fragmentum.
   • The Stellarons respond to the desires of the world to which it is tethered. However, the cost of fulfilling those desires often brings great disaster to the world. There is no known way to destroy a Stellaron; currently, the most that can be done is contain its energy.

   Synesthesia Beacon:

   • Synesthesia Beacon, also known as telepathy beacon, is a machine translation device made by Elias Salas and later signed over to the Synesthesia School of the Intelligentsia Guild. It is an injectable implant.
   • The Synesthesia Beacon facilitate communication between intelligent creatures by connecting their consciousness and directly transferring an individual's thoughts into a language the receiver could understand, bypassing traditional communication. It can not only translate languages and scripts, but also nonverbal signals such as "all body movements, flash signals, sound vibrations, or the change in odor molecules". The IPC used the Synesthesia Beacon to build "a giant database, storing the speech and vocabulary of almost a hundred million languages.

   Aha - 'The Elation.' :

   • Called 'Joyseeker', 'The Laughter', 'Everlasting Glee', 'Master of Elation', 'God of Games' and 'Lord of the Path of Elation'
   • The Aeon of Joy. No one can predict what this Aeon might express THEIR mirth at. Joy is a right of sentient beings, and Aha inspires THEIR believers to delight in the joys of life. THEY take pleasure in the sharp turns of fate. Although THEY don’t possess earth-shattering powers like Lan or Qlipoth, Aha enjoys causing chaos through unpredictable means, making tiny changes and minor influences to living creatures.
   • The Masked Fools share a parable about the Aeon: When Aha climbed to the highest branch of the Imaginary Tree, THEY saw the void, the stars operating like machinery, and how meaning bows before nothingness. THEY continued looking until THEY saw a baby fall to the ground and cry. THEY burst into laughter so clear it tore through the universe and still reverberates to this day.
   • Although the laughter that "tore through the universe" is widely regarded as a metaphor, the Masked Fools maintain that the event was literal and that the Echo of Primordial Laughter is the physical remnant left behind. The anomaly manifests as a spatial rift found within multiple Taverns operated by the Masked Fools throughout the cosmos. It is described as a motionless yet perpetually grinning fissure in reality, whose presence evokes both amusement and unease among those who encounter it. Despite its name, the rift produces no audible echo when shouted into, and objects cast into it vanish without a trace.
   • At some unknown point in the past, Aha stole the concept of "Aftertaste" from the Path of Voracity, resulting in the rise of the Path of Elation. Subsequently, this also caused the genetic markers responsible for encoding gustatory organs, or taste buds, to vanish from all creations of Voracity, such as Void Song Whales, turning them into biological black holes that consume without discrimination. According to Ruan Mei, the conflict between Aha and Oroboros stretches back to primordial times
   • The Masked Fools were drinking in their tavern when a blurred ripple appeared before them in a goblet which read: "Stop drinking, and go assist Aeons!". After three days, they reached the conclusion that it was from Aha, and set out on their journey. Generations passed as they finally realized that Aha was merely deceiving them and laughed at the futility of their actions.
   • At the end of the Swarm Disaster, Aha, alongside HooH, Qlipoth, Akivili, and Xipe, came together and finally brought Tayzzyronth down and sealed THEM within amber.
   • At some point during or after the Swarm Disaster, Aha scattered the body of Oroboros across multiple worlds, including Planarcadia and Vonwacq, and suppressed THEIR remains with the power of the Path of Abundance while siphoning the power of the Path of Voracity, calling it a "game." On Planarcadia, this phenomenon is known as the Phantasmoon Games.
   • Aha takes a form of an obscured headless human figure holding circus-like props.
   • Aha refers to THEMSELF in third person.

   Akivili - 'The Trailblaze.' :

   • Called 'the Cloudstrider'.
   • The Aeon that presides over the Path of Trailblaze. THEY departed from the isolated world of Pegana, and continued to trailblaze unknown frontiers. THEIR destiny came to an end unexpectedly. Of all known Aeons, Akivili was the closest to mankind; THEY were recorded adventuring, fighting, and celebrating with mortals.
   • Akivili originated from the planet Pegana, and created the Astral Express to transport THEMSELF and the Nameless across the galaxy. THEIR creation of the star rail network connected distant galaxies together and facilitated communication between them. The remnants of these star tracks are still used by the Interastral Peace Corporation and the Xianzhou Alliance today as safe routes.
   • Akivili disappeared mysteriously one day, leaving a group of loyal Nameless to carry on what THEY had started and continue THEIR exploration of the unknown.
   • Akivili would disappear mysteriously one day during Dolly's tenure as Navigator, leaving Isee and a group of loyal Nameless to carry on what THEY had started and continue THEIR exploration of the unknown. The Express eventually fell into Planarcadia during Asat Pramad's campaign to destroy the planet and all its passengers would die fighting against the Antimatter Legion. It laid dormant for an unknown period of time before Himeko discovered and repaired it. According to Kafka, Nous may be the only being who knows what happened to THEM. The Data Bank also alludes to an "accident" which abruptly ended Akivili's destiny, while Himeko refers to Akivili as deceased.

   Ena - 'The Order.' :

   • Ena was one of the most ancient Aeons, characterized as a just and magnificent being. THEY thoroughly observed the actions of mortals to ensure the order of the universe, while displaying intolerance to any form of chaos or strife.
   • THEY were assimilated into Xipe, when the latter ascended into Aeonhood, due to the Harmony overlapping with the concept of Order. Before THEIR fall, THEIR path had suppressed numerous calamities, such as the Swarm Disaster.
   • Ena takes the form of a giant eye observing and puppeteering a trunkless puppet veiled with tattered cloth and crowned with a golden halo. The halo is attached to a golden frame, framing the puppets face. Both the puppet itself and the cloth are white with golden accents. The puppet is holding and crystal-gazing into an orb containing the cosmos.
   • According to the Beyond The Sky Choir: "After the Dusk Wars, darkness and chaos consumed the world. As such Ena ascended to become the Aeon of Order, marking the first day. THEY created a grand lyre with black and white keys — striking the white keys makes the sun rise, and the black keys makes the moon rise — creating the Calendar, which marked the second day. THEY made stars into ink, creating Words, which marked the third day. THEY molded stardust into flowing rivers, the upstream for the righteous and the downstream for the unjust, creating Values, which marked the fourth day. THEY used the rings of planets to establish Rules, which marked the fifth day. Through the existence of the Calendar, Words, Values, and Rules, humanity found their Meaning, which marked the sixth day. Yet, all beings united and cast out Ena into the abyss of oblivion, representing Human Dignity, marking the seventh day."

   Fuli - 'The Remembrance.' :

   • Called the "Glowswather," "Master of Anāsrava," "Luminflux" or "Crystal God of the Eden of Blessed Insight"
   • As the Aeon representing the Path of Remembrance, Fuli records happenings of the universe to prepare for the rebirth after the destruction. No one knows of Fuli’s birth or origins. Although THEY are present in almost every significant event of the universe, THEY rarely manifest in front of mortals.
   • Fuli manifests as a humanoid figure carved out of a reflective crystal material wearing a mianguan.
   • At some point, Fuli's divine corpus shattered, and several women were born who had all walked the Path of Remembrance. These women, known as the Pure Children of Anāsrava, are speculated to be a special form of Remembrance Emanators. Other speculations include that they are manifestations of Fuli, each representing a different facet of THEIR memories of THEMSELF. Despite THEIR shattering, Fuli is not regarded as a fallen Aeon, contrary to the rumors and claims propagated by the Cremators, who assert that Fuli fell and that the Garden of Recollection usurped THEIR divine authority over the Path of Remembrance. This is because masterless Paths do not exhibit tidal energy fluctuations, and fallen Aeons no longer gaze upon any Pathstrider — criteria that Fuli does not fulfill.
   • After interfacing with Nous, Herta uncovers the truth about Fuli. Fuli has not yet been born; THEY will only ascend at the end of time in order to fulfill THEIR divine duty of recreating the universe once it reaches its Finality. At the moment of ascension, THEIR memory stretches backward through time, becoming the "Fuli" known in the past. Fuli's crystalline form is merely an empty shell, a secret the Garden of Recollection has long concealed. In the present, it remains uncertain who will ultimately become Fuli, but THEY will nonetheless be born from among the Pure Children of Anāsrava. Other known instances of Fuli observed throughout the cosmos are merely false avatars, created as a consequence of the choice every Pure Child of Anāsrava must eventually make in their lives.

   HooH - 'The Equilibrium.' :

   • Believed to be the first Aeon to exist. Was once a single being but split itself into two for unknown reasons. Silently intervenes in the universe to achieve total equilibrium, fusing positive and negative into a whole.

   IX - 'The Nihility.' :

   • The Aeon that presides over the Path of Nihility. THEIR existence is a mystery. IX doesn't interact with the other Aeons. THEY believe that the ultimate fate of the multiverse is nothingness, and therefore, worthless. IX is an apathetic Aeon, believing existence is absolutely meaningless, so doing anything is worthless. THEY don’t interact with other Aeons and THEIR existence is a mystery. Just being near IX’s form can make one feel numbed and dejected.
   • IX resembles a large purple blob with two white eyes, with a large collection of asteroids and planets being pulled towards THEM. What appears to be THEIR body is a swirling nebula of magenta and blue stars enveloped by a large purple gas. IX’s form may be meant to resemble the number 9, corresponding to the meaning of THEIR name in Roman Numerals.

   Idrila - 'The Beauty.' :

   • Called the 'Wondergazer.'
   • Used to manifest in whatever THEIR witnesses believed to be beautiful.
   • The pure goodness of the material world sensed and defined by intelligent lifeforms — this is how the so-called "beauty" came into existence. Idrila was once the Aeon that presided over the Path of Beauty, but has now disappeared.
   • According to an ancient myth, Idrila once claimed sole attribution for the beauty of all the starzones. THEY showcased the meaning and aesthetics within the cosmic landscape to heroes, villains, and mortals, driving them to accomplish astonishing but often devastating achievements for Idrila's own pleasure. This myth potentially unveils the true significance behind the path of Beauty: the integration of consciousness, insight, and values.

   Lán - 'The Hunt.' :

   • Called the 'Archer Lord of Fate,' 'Devilish Archer Author,' 'God of the Skybow,' 'Reignbow Arbiter'
   • THEY wander endlessly between worlds to eradicate the abominations created by the Aeon of Abundance. Lan harbors an intense hatred towards Yaoshi the Abundance and the Denizens of Abundance supported by THEM. THEY tirelessly hunt them down, driven by the devastation the Abundance caused on THEIR homeworld. In contrast with the other Aeons, Lan pays close attention to mortals; bestowing their power to those with a strong sense of justice or vengeance, such as certain Galaxy Rangers and the Generals of the Xianzhou Alliance.
   • THEY have light blue skin and long, flowing sky-blue hair with periwinkle accents that reaches past THEIR waist. Lan's face is obscured by a black mask with a white star in the middle, which extends to THEIR black headpiece. THEY possess centaur like features, taking form of a man combined with an equine below the waist, while the hind legs are replaced by blue fire-like wheels of a chariot. THEY commonly wield a glowing, light blue bow, which THEY use to fire THEIR Sky-shattering Lux Arrow.

   Lóng - 'The Permanence.' :

   • Known as the 'Progenitor of All Dragons,' and creator of the Vidyadhara race.
   • The deceased ancient Aeon who presided over the Path of Permanence. THEY used to appear in the form of a giant dragon. THEY left behind a large number of descendants known as Long's Scions.
   • Long traversed the universe an untold number of Amber Eras ago with the primary goal of seeking the meaning to life itself. At some point, THEY found their answer, which became known as the Revelation of the Permanence. After that, Long's scions also emerged

   Mythus - 'The Enigmata.' :

   • The Aeon that presides over the Path of Enigmata. THEIR form remains unknown.
   • THEY believe that things-in-themselves are beyond perception, and that finite entities are incapable of envisioning true infinity, and therefore everything is an enigma. THEIR origins are unknown, but it is rumored that Mythus might be in some way related to either Mythus or Nous.
   • Mythus resembles a broken and torn jellyfish, akin to a deliberately destroyed version of the cognitive center of the human brain. THEY have a humanoid body surrounded by a staircase.

   Nanook - 'The Destruction.' :

   • Called "Ruin Author," "Supreme Destroyer," "Supreme Executioner," "The Blemished One."
   • The Aeon that presides over the Path of Destruction. Witnessing the destruction of THEIR home world, Adlivun, as it was marred by the Swarm and the Mechanical Empire during THEIR birth, Nanook sees the creation of the universe as a mistake and seeks to destroy everything. After ascending to Aeonhood, Nanook allegedly ignited the Adlivun star system, burning THEIR world to an "obsidian hellscape." Despite being the most recently ascended Aeon, Nanook and THEIR minions may already be considered the greatest menace in all the galaxy.
   • Nanook is depicted as a human male with long, white braided hair, brown skin, and golden eyes. A large gash along with multiple smaller wounds is seen on THEIR chest as golden ichor seeps out. On THEIR neck is a black choker with a golden clasp lining the fabric. A quarter of THEIR arms are separated into floating pieces to reveal glowing golden ichor inside, and THEY appear to be wearing black bandages with golden inscriptions that wrap around THEIR hands as makeshift fingerless gloves. Half of THEIR lower body, usually concealed with a long, torn black robe held up with a white sash tied with a golden ribbon, is golden flames and black smoke, indicating THEIR path of Destruction. THEY also have a silver ring on their left hand, placed on THEIR middle finger.

   Nous - 'The Erudition.' :

   • Called the 'Wisdomwalker,' 'Cobalt Head', 'Droidhead,' and 'Monarch of Myriad Machines.'
   • THEY were an astral supercomputer created by Zandar One Kuwabara prior to THEIR ascension into Aeonhood. None can comprehend THEIR intentions, location, or normal state. Nous is a machine intelligence that has been upgraded into an Aeon, calculating the essence of the universe and its ultimate solution. However, Nous temporarily ceased THEIR search regarding the answers to the universe after the events of the Second Prosperity. THEY are not a god that provides solutions. All THEY offer is an infinite number of questions. Visiting Nous is enough to open the eyes of even the most ignorant people, but answers may only be found by oneself.
   • Nous appears as a colossal mechanical humanoid head. A multitude of lengthy ripped cables extend above and below THEIR form, which are covered in yellow, red and blue lights. The shape of a face can be identified on THEIR rightmost metal plating. A large and bright red light, vaguely reminiscent of an eye, is implanted on the side of THEIR head.

   Oroboros - 'The Voracity.' :

   • Known as "Beast of Calamity", "Star Devourer", "Void Maw" and "Beast Mother".
   • An ancient Aeon that presides over the Path of Voracity. The unsatisfied devourer of worlds. Legends say THEY are an Aeon as well as a kind of ancient beings named Leviathans.
   • Oroboros was one of the oldest Aeons in the universe alongside Qlipoth. THEY were the last remaining Dusk Leviathan, a species that is alleged by the IPC to have disappeared when Qlipoth ascended. Oroboros possessed a massive fanged tentacled neck with writhing flesh. THEIR body had multiple forms.
   • At some unknown point in the past, Aha stole the concept of "Aftertaste" from the Path of Voracity, causing the genetic markers responsible for encoding gustatory organs, or taste buds, to vanish from all creations of Voracity, such as Void Song Whales or Warp Trotters, turning them into biological black holes that consume without discrimination.
   • During the Swarm Disaster, when the Swarm's propagation reached its peak, Oroboros devoured countless heirs of Tayzzyronth, as well as numerous galaxies. It is said that no species can resist the lantern-like "bait" on THEIR stomach. THEY also used THEIR "beautiful, alluring" singing voice to lure THEIR victims. Oroboros and Tayzzyronth eventually confronted each other in a war that lasted five Amber Eras. It affected two-thirds of the universe and caused countless planetary and star systems to perish. As Oroboros devoured civilizations during THEIR war against Tayzzyronth, the memories of its victims crystallized and were preserved by Fuli. Oroboros vanished during the final phase of the war along with Ena, who had been watching THEM without THEIR knowledge.

   Qlipoth - 'The Preservation.' :

   • Called the 'Amber Lord,' 'Firmamend Arbiter.'
   • The builder of the Celestial Comet Wall, the Subspace Crystalline Barrier, and the Great Attractor Base. They are called the "Amber Lord" by their followers. They preside over the Path of Preservation, and are one of the oldest and most tenacious Aeons.
   • Qlipoth strives to isolate contact between planets. The celestial-sized structures THEY'VE built separates and protects the living worlds from being devoured by their enemy, Oroboros. Despite being the main faction aligned with the Amber Lord, the IPC goes against the desires of the Aeon, facilitating civilized trade and contact between the stars. No remonstration or censure has been directed towards them because of this.
   • Qlipoth is known to use THEIR hammer to construct various items, and every time THEY swing THEIR hammer down, a new Amber Era is heralded. However, the frequency of which THEY swing THEIR hammer greatly varies, with one swing equating between 76 and 240 Trailblaze Years There is a theory called "Catastrophe Theory" that states that when the hammer swings and a new amber era begins, a catastrophy is imminent.
   • Estimated around 2158 Amber Eras ago, Qlipoth ascended to become the Aeon of The Preservation during the Dusk Wars, pledging to construct walls tirelessly to defend the universe against the Leviathans.
   • During the Swarm Disaster, Ena the Order sent an invitation to The Preservation, as THEY thought Qlipoth held great responsibility for the actions of the Voracity and the Propagation as the one who controls the will of transmutation. An agreement was reached wherein Qlipoth promised to aid the Aeons against Tayzzyronth and The Swarm, while the contents on Ena’s part of the deal remains unknown — though presumably related to Oroboros.
   • With the same hammer THEY use for construction, THEY began to dilute Tayzzyronth's form, as Aha and Xipe watched. As Qlipoth's rage grew, the suns in the area began to grow abnormally in numbers. Within each swing, Qlipoth stripped THEM of their broken shell, body, and heart as THEIR blood and primordial eggs spilled all over the ground, further diluting THEIR power. After being reduced to fragments, Qlipoth sealed Tayzzyronth remains into separate pieces of amber.
   • Qlipoth is a legless golem littered with cracks, composed of an unknown type of rock and amber. Both of THEIR hands have four fingers, and the arms are connected to the torso by two bright yellow stars. The torso is composed of a larger star with a much darker orange color which is covered by rocks, and the head is composed of another star, which possesses a halo of inner and outer ring of broken rocks.

   Tayzzyronth - 'The Propagation.' :

   • Called 'Imperator Insectorum,' 'Sand King,' 'Swarm Author.'
   • The inactive Aeon who presided over the Path of Propagation. As the last member of the Coleoptera, Tayzzyronth's form was a horror of self-replication, a vanguard what opened the floodgates of infinite reproduction upon worlds.
   • Tayzzyronth is an Aeon motivated by nothing but the need to propagate and spread across the universe. THEY were responsible for the rise of The Swarm, and its eventual spread throughout the universe during the Swarm Disaster.
   • Tayzzyronth appears as a large insect in black, wine red, and other matching colors. THEY have six membranous wings, three on each side, with four tinted with white. Six sharp legs emerge from THEIR main body. On top of THEIR main body is a pale-skinned, faceless, puppet-like humanoid with two small wings on THEIR back. THEIR head is replaced with a pair of pink wings fading to dark blue on the tips. THEY appear to be holding a Juvenile Sting.

   Terminus - 'The Finality.' :

   • The Aeon that presides over the Path of Finality shall be born whenever any one of the Theory of Four Apocalypses could possibly unfold, and move backward in time. At that moment, THEY'll manifest THEIR entire divinity into a clutter of black cats that travels across the universe while murmuring a prophecy that is destined to be fulfilled.
   • THEY appear at every moment of Finality, bringing prophecies of the future. THEY are said to be dormant, and the words heard are simply somniloquy. As THEIR words are merely murmurs, time has to be taken to decipher the information behind THEIR words, often driving some mad.
   • Terminus has a prophecy called the Theory of Four Apocalypses, which states that four Paths will push the cosmos towards its end: Destruction, Harmony, Nihility, and an unknown 4th Path.

   Xipe - 'The Harmony.' :

   • Called 'Great One of Paradise,' 'Thousand-Faced Great One,' 'Triple-Faced Soul.'
   • An Aeon that hails from multiple harmonious celestial worlds. THEY preside over the Path of Harmony. THEY are the amalgamation of thousands of entities that preaches the joy of human harmony and unity.
   • Xipe is the amalgamation of thousands of entities that preaches the joy of human harmony and unity hailing from multiple harmonious celestial worlds. THEY absorbed Ena the Order when the former ascended into an Aeon due to THEIR colliding Paths nearing the end of the Swarm Disaster.
   • Xipe presents as a serene, periwinkle-skinned humanoid with three faces — two on either side of THEIR head and one on the front. The faces are framed with lengthy white curtain bangs and are each adorned with a circlet. Xipe's extensive swathe of hair is colored white with a twinkling dark purple ombre, aloft a polychromatic flare reminiscent of a halo. The substance of Xipe's body flays into jigsaw-like fragments, covering it in a form-fitting dress that is decorated with nebular expressions of the cosmos. The dress’ lower part flows past THEIR feet, with firm lattices in gold wrapping around the collar and torso.
   • Xipe and THEIR chosen ones formed a harmonious "Family" composed of members from various civilizations and worlds. They are the closest family there is and believe there should never be contradictions or noisy disputes. Only with eternal love and smiles will the universe become a harmonious whole. The Family frequently calls out to other worlds with their song, encouraging them to embrace Harmony. The Family will celebrate each new world that accepts the blessing of Xipe, and work even harder at praising the Aeon's kindness. The Family has never known any world that grew weary of the singing and voluntarily abandoned the Path of Harmony.

   Yàoshī - 'The Abundance.' :

   • Called 'Master of Immortality,' 'Merciful Medicus,' 'Plagues Author,' 'Sanctus Medicus,' 'The Merciful One,' 'Deathless Doom.'
   • The nurturer of all beings and the Aeon of paradise. THEIR aim is the continual proliferation of life. Yaoshi presides over the Path of Abundance and is the sworn enemy of Lan, Aeon of The Hunt.
   • Yaoshi's benevolent nature led THEM to grant THEIR blessing upon anyone who seeks immortality. However, the consequences of these blessings often result in a fate worse than death.
   • Yaoshi is described as a figure with six arms and very pale skin, along with hair similar to that of a magpie’s feather in the Simulated Universe. THEY have antlers resembling branches sprouting from THEIR head and slits of red eyes with black sclera on parts of THEIR body.
   • Yaoshi is closely connected to the phenomenon known as mara, something specially prevalent to Long-life species who have obtained their immortality from Yaoshi. The condition transforms individuals' bodies and robs them of their sanity.

   Denizens of Abundance:

   • The Denizens of Abundance, also known as the Abominations of Abundance or the Abundance Axis, are a major faction consisting of several long-life species following the Aeon Yaoshi, having been blessed with immortality through the Path of Abundance.
   • The chosen who have received Abundance's blessings. They revel in the joy brought about by their undying bodies and praise Yaoshi for their kindness and grace. The Denizens of Abundance are the sworn enemies of the Xianzhou Alliance, and both sides have vowed to eradicate the other.
   • Composed by long life species such as: Borisin, Cobrakind, Heliobi, Houyhnhnm, Viscorpi and Wingweavers.

   Disciples of Sanctus Medicus:

   • The Disciples of Sanctus Medicus are a secret sect loyal to Yaoshi, the Aeon of Abundance, who they refer to as "Merciful Medicus."
   • There are two different groups of Disciples of Sanctus Medicus who share the same name. The first group, known as the Old Disciples of Sanctus Medicus, was a generally harmless group that worshiped Yaoshi in secrecy for thousands of years until they transformed into the Cold Springs sect, which led the Xianzhou in reforming their healthcare system and eventually declared their renouncement of Yaoshi. They believed that mara existed because Yaoshi's will was improperly executed.
   • The more recent Disciples of Sanctus Medicus rose in the wake of the Third Abundance War less than 30 years ago. They operated in secrecy, seeking to lead the Xianzhou Alliance on the Path of Abundance. They believe that mara, rather than being a curse, is a kind of "blessed evolution."

   Knights of Beauty:

   • People who fervently praise the beauty of the Aeon, Idrila. The skillful warriors among them formed the Knights of Beauty, which fell apart upon Idrila's disappearance. Many believe THEM to be missing as opposed to deceased.
   • Among Idrila's followers, the Knights of Beauty are the most infatuated with classical beauty. They chant beautiful hymns on their mounts and endlessly roam the universe, extolling Idrila's name. While they tend to operate in solitude, they are known to also travel in groups.
   • Due to the fractured nature of the faction, many of the Knights have taken up different stances on Beauty and Idrila, however they all share the same Code of Chivalry. There exists different groups of Knights, however, with the different groups being differentiated by their engraved armor.

   Mirror Holders:

   • Wanderers who have witnessed the beauty of different worlds. To revive the Aeon of Beauty, they collect the Aeon's relics scattered across the Universe, believing that in this way they can piece Idrila together.

   Annihilation Gang:

   • The Annihilation Gang is a faction following the Aeon of Destruction, Nanook. The Annihilation Gang has never earned their Aeon's gaze, an objective they are still futilely attempting to fulfill. The reason is that the Annihilation Gang's goal behind their thirst for destruction is not pure enough. Chaotic desires are also mixed therein, with some taking pleasure in bloody slaughter, some plundering as an excuse for filthy vengeance, and some relying on endless destruction to calm their internal madness. They claim to be loyal followers of Destruction, but never escape the enslavement of their own selfish desires.
   • While they all belong in the same faction, there is a clear squabble among the groups, such as the Ever-Flame Mansion and Jepella Brotherhood, who were enemies prior to the former's supposed dissolution.

   Antimatter Legion:

   • The Antimatter Legion, sometimes simply known as the Legion, is a massive, intergalactic army of hostile, malevolent monsters led by the Aeon Nanook, based in the Warforge. Their goal is the Destruction of all life and civilization in the universe.
   • Most Antimatter Legion members can cross stars without ships. But for expeditions, they use "Borehole Blitz" transport vessels as planetary invasion platforms. These ships drill destructive tunnels through Imaginary barriers for forced passage. Unlike silver rails, these tunnels are extremely dangerous, unusable by non-Legion forces, and sometimes leak Imaginary energy.
   • The Lord Ravagers are the Emanators of Nanook, Aeon of Destruction, who serve as the leaders of the Antimatter Legion's troops. Lord Ravagers are selected by Nanook from among the worlds THEY have destroyed. These beings obey the will of Nanook, and relish in the Path of Destruction. Each Lord Ravager represents different extremes of Destruction, and each of them is tied to a different Path upon which they intend to bring Destruction. Lord Ravagers can be killed, though due to their status as Emanators such a task is difficult.

   Masked Fools:

   • Fanatical worshipers of the Aeon Aha. They seek the pinnacle of hedonism and debauchery. There are no limits in their pursuit of pleasure.
   • Masked Fools are extremely radical when it comes to their beliefs among the followers of Elation. In their pursuit of pleasure, they do whatever it takes to find it, often causing havoc wherever they go. The Fools' objective is to stir the stagnant pool of life to create surges and change, because change is a source of mockery and amusement to the Fools.
   • Each member possesses a unique "mask" belonging only to them, a "mask" bestowed by Aha. These masks allow them to obtain power from their Path. Caution is advised when interacting with individuals wearing masks, as their true intentions can be challenging to discern from their words and actions.

   Mourning Actors:

   • Those who firmly resist the path of Elation. They advocate for abstinence and penance to dilute the temptation of elation. Ironically, their powers come from blessings of the Aeon of Elation, Aha.
   • They believe life is full of ups and downs, that agony makes people mature but fleeting joy only offers hopeless and unreachable temptation. Cheap entertainment is a narcotic for humans to lose themselves in. All beings should renounce joy and endure grief to temper their spirits. To this end, these people formed a theater troupe of sorrow.
   • The Actors ride a gondola that spans the stars to perform. They collect and wear masks from different worlds, symbolizing the races that have passed and those that have not. At the same time, they record the sorrows of intelligent life. They compose magnificent tragedies for heroes facing their end, and sing graceful elegies for dying stars.
   • Mourning Actors advocate celibacy and penance, hoping this would go against the Path of Elation and dilute the sweet allure that the Elation has been able to provide to the universe. However, joy and sadness are two sides of the same coin. Their very essence is engraved into the souls of all beings. The Aeon of Elation sees the potential strength in the beauty of tragedy. Perhaps out of fondness for their wicked sense of humor, Aha blessed these people with Aeonic powers, playfully helping them spread their renunciation of joy across many star systems.

   History Fictionologists:

   • Emissaries of the Aeon, Mythus. Dedicated to fabricating, obfuscating, destroying, and erasing the histories of the cosmos. With "Enigmata" as their sole philosophy, they are determined to shroud the universe in mists.
   • History Fictionologists believe that the past determines the future — when a civilization's history is definite, its future development is doomed as all possibilities are eliminated, leaving only a sad and rigid path forward. In order to save these worlds from the sad fate of objectivity, History Fictionologists consider Enigmata as their only creed and are determined to shroud the universe in mystery.

   The Riddlers:

   • While the History Fictionologists are dedicated to the mystification of history, the Riddlers are devoted to undermining the clarity of languages. They deconstruct texts, create metaphors, alter word order, and tamper with definitions so as to disorganize the originally precise languages. Followers of Enigmata.

   Claretwheel Temple:

   • The Claretwheel Temple is a pacifistic religious faction composed of individuals of numerous species, most of these being long life species considered to be Denizens of Abundance.
   • The Claretwheel Temple is a non-aggressive faction that rejects harming living beings, turning their beliefs into a religious concept as a path of salvation. The temple has close to 10,000 disciples, most of whom are borisin, though there are a few members from the other Denizens of Abundance. They are identified with some sort of forged metallic band around a certain part of their body, which symbolizes their advocacy to avoid killing. The monks of Claretwheel Temple also regard HooH the Equilibrium as a great forerunner instead of a god who guides the people of this world. The monks always maintain some distance from the concept of Aeons in their teachings.
   • A common saying in the Claretwheel Temple is "May the claret wheel hang overhead, illuminating mortal hearts."
   • The Claretwheel Temple also bears five commandments, recited in hopes of severing one's ties to evil. It is a method of self-discipline. A commandment mantra is said before this, with the mantra going as such: "I am born of the void, born in servitude to all beings, thus I shall neither harm nor transgress. I quell myself from strife, witnessing the poison of karmic consequences, thus I shall neither covet nor hate. I know the truth of suffering, of death, and of life, thus I shall not be indulgent in my wait for Nirvana" After reciting the mantra, the members are given a Claretwheel Ring to symbolize their vow to abide by the commandments, with the commandments being "to not evoke harm, transgression, greed, hate, and indulgence"

   The Arbitrators:

   • Arbitrators act according to the commands of the Aeon HooH, seeking a zero-sum state of the universe. They are mistaken as gods in many worlds due to the sheer scale of their power.

   AtaviSearch Forest:

   • The AtaviSearch Forest consists of researchers who follow Dr. Primitive, Genius Society member n°64.
   • These fervent scholars very quickly find themselves on the opposing side of civilization, voluntarily becoming the staunchest advocates for atavistic experiments. They insist that Erudition had long strayed from the straight and narrow and that regression is the only salvation. They are convinced that any means are necessary in the pursuit of knowledge, recklessly disregarding the fact that these brutal methods have already overstepped the boundaries of science, wholeheartedly throwing themselves into heresies. In the long course of their experimentation, the line between the researcher and the researched also gradually blurs.
   • Due to being often hunted down by the Galaxy Rangers, all subfactions of the AtaviSearch Forest hide.

   Genius Society:

   • The people who have received the grace of the Aeon, Nous. A collection of the most remarkable geniuses and smartest brains in the universe.
   • The Genius Society is a gathering of geniuses across the cosmos who had drawn the attention of Nous the Erudition, founded by first member Zandar One Kuwabara. Many often misinterpret the invitation as only an approval. The few who are able to understand the Aeon's intentions are given a key to the halls of the Nous Temple. Those who pass through the gates seek guidance from Nous and leave behind their legacy to never return.
   • Besides their intellect, members of the society are also known for how much they differ from each other, whether it be in terms of background, ideals, or goals. Most geniuses in the society are lone wolves, asocial, and people with social disorders whom refuse to communicate with each other, and only a few —such as Aiden, Elias Salas, and Herta— are willing to share their findings and use their talent to contribute to the advancement of the cosmos, preferring to indulge in their research for enjoyment. Some are even lunatics, like Rubert I, who dedicated itself to eradicate all organic life forms in the universe, or Polka Kakamond, known for killing fellow members of the society who approach the borders of the Circle of Knowledge.

   Intelligentsia Guild:

   • The Intelligentsia Guild is an academic institution subsidized by the Interastral Peace Corporation. Only the cream of the crop can become members of the Genius Society, but the Intelligentsia Guild wastes not. The Guild is willing to accept all beings from the infinite universe who seek to learn, as well as providing all that is needed for the full pursuit of knowledge.
   • The Intelligentsia Guild advocates that "all knowledge must be circulated like currency." Therefore, although there are different schools that specialize in different subjects within the Guild, everyone is actively engaged with one another with no isolationism. Members trade knowledge for wisdom and formulas for recipes, seeking to achieve mastery. Each school, like a business, pays for itself, and academic circulation has achieved the maximum efficiency proposed in economic models. It is composed of five main schools, these being: Astral Ecology School, Armed Archaeologists, Candelagraphos, Synesthesia School and Quantum History School.
   • The Astral Ecology School views the galaxy as a large ecological observation subject. The school earned its recognition for the discovery of the Celestial Comet Wall. The Interastral Peace Corporation was exhilarated to hear the confirmation that this was an ancient creation of Qlipoth, Aeon of Preservation. The Astral Ecology School is in charge of declaring the beginning and end of Amber Eras.
   • A school passionate about galactic exploration and archaeology. They are always heading to the most desolate planets and exploring the most dangerous ruins. Their modus operandi is having a group of their scholars armed to the teeth leading mercenaries out on an exploration vessel and searching the crevices of ancient buildings that have been forgotten for countless Amber Eras.
   • The Candelagraphos is the printing department of the guild. They are made of countless authors, transcribers, typists, programmers, and workers who produce books. This school is founded upon the noble gesture of altruism, surrendering selfish scientific research and throwing themselves at the grand service of sharing wisdom with more people. The science of the Intelligentsia Guild is gathered here and organized into books to be published and sold to all the worlds.
   • The Synesthesia School is behind the development of the Synesthesia Beacon and sales of the licensing rights to the Interastral Peace Corporation. While the Synesthesia Beacon was first invented by Genius Society member Elias Salas, he would sign over the rights of the product to the Intelligentsia Guild and through their own merit they would reproduce the Synesthesia Beacon. The school now specializes in the development of communications devices, and are forever expanding.
   • The Quantum History School is a new school reformed from the bankrupted Psychology History School. Its original purpose is to find the influences of disturbance and patterns of change hidden throughout history, and then make predictions for the future. However, they've become a group of scammers that use a series of complex "calculations" for fortune-telling.
   • The Council of Mundanites is a mysterious organization within the Intelligentsia Guild that houses the brightest minds of the Guild.

   Creed Exequy:

   • Worshipers of the Aeon, Terminus. They await their once-in-a-lifetime encounter. Much is unknown about the Creed Exequy other than they chronicle the events of worlds coming to an end.

   Omen Vanguards:

   • Those who believe that Terminus represents the end of the universe. They are dedicated to drawing prophecies from Terminus' obscure words. The Omen Vanguards are followers of Terminus dedicated to deciphering THEIR muttering and preventing future calamities. For their efforts, they have garnered a seemly positive reputation in the universe, having worked with numerous factions in the past. There still exists some who do not listen to the Omen Vanguards, and the faction fails to prevent every calamity no matter how hard they attempt.
   • It is believed that Isee, former Navigator of the Astral Express, was the one to found the Omen Vanguards.

   Stellaron Hunters:

   • An organization that travels between worlds hunting for Stellarons. Founded and led by Elio, they are a mysterious organization that collect Stellarons and are followers of the Finality. They are said to work against the Interastral Peace Corporation.

   The Family:

   • The residents of worlds that have received Xipe's blessing. They sing endlessly about their Aeon's generosity, and believe that the universe will eventually become a single harmonious entity.

   Device IX:

   • Device IX is a physical location hidden away from the rest of the universe. It was founded by Genius Society member #4 Polka Kakamond in response to her inability to prevent the "Theory of Four Apocalypses." The only known feature of Device IX is the existence of its dark web. Besides Polka, it is also believed that Genius Society member #64 Dr. Primitive might have connections to Device IX, with the Galaxy Rangers going as far as to track the location down trying to find him.

   Doctors of Chaos:

   • Ponderers who inadvertently encountered the Nihility. They attempt to resist the destiny of Nihility, and try to prove to the Aeon of Nihility the meaning behind the existence of all things. The Doctors of Chaos are known for performing medical examinations, studies and treatments on Self-Annihilators. They do not believe in absolute nihility. All that appears meaningless must have its own irrefutable purpose.
   • Doctors of Chaos uphold a creed of saving the world: If they are able to prove to IX that existence is more than nothing, they could free that large and lonely soul from the depths of the void. What they try to prove is a paradox, and it cannot be done by mortals, yet the Doctors of Chaos seem to enjoy trying — Because the moment they perceived the worthlessness of life, that glance from the distant cosmos inspired within them a futile desire to revolt against meaningless destiny.

   Self-Annihilators:

   • The Self-Annihilators are individuals who have inadvertently stepped into the shadow of IX the Nihility and from that moment have lost the meaning of their own existence. More than a faction, they are a phenomenon across the universe.
   • Self-annihilation, as a phenomenon, carries as symptoms the gradual decay of the Self-Annihilator's existential properties — such as corporeal body, mental cognition, and personal memories. Eventually, even their existence itself fades away, leading to lives just as meaningless.

   Beyond The Sky Choir:

   • The Beyond the Sky Choir lost their faith when Ena the Order was absorbed by Xipe. The faction used to create records that can only be played by specific phonographs. Only a few them, made by the Choir's devoted audiences remain in this world today. The last Phonograph of Order was destroyed in the Emperor's War, leaving these records unusable.

   The Architects:

   • The Architects follow in Qlipoth's footsteps to construct walls to protect their home planets. They believe the actions of their Aeon foretell an upcoming calamity that will bring an end to the cosmos. Architects are also present across most planets that follow the Preservation, such as the Architects of the IPC and the Architects of Tosta.

   Interastral Peace Corporation:

   • The Interastral Peace Corporation, abbreviated as the "IPC," is an intergalactic mega corporation responsible for the economy of the entire cosmos. To outsiders, the IPC is an enormous consortium advocating free trade. From a business perspective, the IPC is a business that issues money and monopolizes resources. From a startup perspective, the IPC is a selfless support group dedicated to the Aeon of Preservation.
   • The rank of IPC employees likely dictates their salary, though all wages are considered a trade secret. Disclosing these wages will result in the employee's firing: P13 staff members are basic employees - P16 employees are supervisors to the new temporary workers. - P25 members become branch directors of the department. - P35 staff members gain access to the cloud-top mansion at Pier Point. - P40 employees gain the right to purchase Faith Bonds that represents Louis Fleming's affirmation of the staff member. - P44/P46 is given to Senior Managers working directly under the department's head. - P47 designates candidates for the board member position and are typically the department's head leader. - P48/P50 are the highest ranks reserved for department heads who are board members of the corporation.
   • The Interastral Peace Corporation is made up of seven major departments, each encompassing billions of workers and covering thousands of worlds. Each major department possesses a high ranking department head, and a list of directors. The major departments consists of:
   • Building Material Logistics Department: Founded as Amber Lord's Support Team by Louis Fleming and Dongfang Qixing to gather supplies as an offering Qlipoth, it was rearranged into the Building Material Logistics Department when the support team's influence began to rapidly expand.
   • Business Consolidation Department: The largest department of the Corporation led by Board member Madam Scarred Eye, consisting of 45% of the headquarter's total staff. After the Marketing Development Department finishes establishing relations between the IPC and a new world, this department is handed over the subsequent business operations. They are also responsible for managing the IPC's delivery system, setting prices on products, and maintaining the IPC's subsidiary facilities and inventory.
   • Marketing Development Department: Currently led by the former Nameless Oswaldo Schneider, the Marketing Development Department is responsible for bringing worlds into the IPC's commercial sphere and spread the influence of Qlipoth.
   • Strategic Investment Department: Responsible for major business and investment deals across a number of planets. Considered to be the second most visionary department, their investments often stretch across dozens or even hundreds of Amber Eras. The senior management of the department —the Ten Stonehearts— is led by Diamond. Diamond sought out these individuals for their talents regardless of their background or origin, assigning them the task of liquidating these investments that had turned into bad debts caused by Stellarons outbreaks. The Ten Stonehearts are Diamond, Jade, Obsidian, Opal, Aventurine, Pearl, Topaz, Amber, Agate, Sapphire and Sugilite.
   • Talent Motivation Department: Unlike other departments, the Talent Motivation is currently directed by two individuals, Mtooyin Raj Zazzad and Yan Shiluo. Members of the department recruit, train, and transport employees of the IPC through the cosmos. The Talent Motivation serves as the hub of communication which many intergalactic projects collaboration are conducted with their respective stakeholders. The two directors has a hold over a vast information network, forming powerful alliances and establishing relationships with major factions unwilling to join under the IPC.
   • Technology Department: The Technology Department is heavily tied with the Intelligentsia Guild, turning their researches and discoveries into commercial projects. The current director, Yabuli, is also noted to have connections with the Council of Mundanites within the Guild that rouses intrigue, often welcoming waves of speculation.
   • Traditional Project Department: Once an industry's trade falls below a certain percentage threshold, the duties of maintaining it will be handed over from of the Business Consolidation Department to the Traditional Project Department. Under Arita's management, the department has been mockingly called the "retirement home" of the IPC for people who has no future due to its moderate performance quality. However, many believe this is where true elites conduct business behind the scenes.

   The Swarm:

   • The Swarm is a mass horde of diverse insectoid creatures with the sole drive to propagate and spread. Through Tayzzyronth, The Swarm evolved and spread, powered by the Path of Propagation. The Swarm are connected to Tayzzyronth through a hivemind, with many being personally bred by Tayzzyronth, such as Skaracabaz. While Tayzzyronth would later fall, The Swarm are still an active threat in the universe to this day, having recently damaged worlds such as Adlivun.

   Garden Of Recollection:

   • The Garden of Recollection, often shortened to just "the Garden," is a faction which worships the Aeon of Remembrance, Fuli. The faction's Memokeepers take on the form of Memetic Entities and travel to different worlds to gather memories. It is widely agreed that the Garden of Recollection was founded by one or several Pure Children of Anāsrava.

   Memokeepers

   • Subfaction of the Garden of Recollection. They travel to worlds alone, using their powers to prevent the inhabitants from knowing of their presence, they only reveal themselves if they come across someone who has the potential of being a Memokeeper, after which they will reveal themselves and offer the chance for recruitment. Due to their elusive nature, Memokeepers of the Garden of Recollection have gained a fearsome reputation. Memokeepers follow an extremely strict set of rules in order to ensure that their powers are not misused, and are specifically trained to resist looking into, stealing, controlling, or restoring memories. Violating this rule results in their immediate termination, though a few members are given an exception to this rule, known as "Memosnatchers."

   Memosnatchers:

   • The Memosnatchers are a radical branch of the Garden of Recollection. They have the ability to avoid some of the rules of the Garden of Recollection and aren't completely aligned with other Memokeepers.

   The Cremators:

   • While many of the faction hold onto the core beliefs of Remembrance, there exists a off-shot of Memokeepers known as "The Cremators" who don't believe in every memory being valuable. The Cremators will destroy memories they find unimportant in order to "clear out the garbage."

   Pure Children Of Anāsrava:

   • The Pure Children of Anāsrava are fragments of Fuli, the Aeon of Remembrance, that have been spread out among the universe. The Pure Children of Anāsrava are various women all created by the fragmentation of Fuli, and sealed in Six-Phased Ice. Each Pure Child of Anāsrava seems to share similar traits of pink hair, as well as an innate connection to the Path of Remembrance. They are powerful beings, with people theorizing they may also be Emanators of Remembrance.

   Galaxy Rangers:

   • The Galaxy Rangers is a voluntarily formed group that travels around the cosmos to uphold justice for the locals out of the belief that benevolence and justice must be upheld by personal action. This group admires Lan's policy of using violence against violence and the Aeon's swift decisiveness regarding punishment, believing the benevolence and justice of the universe need to be upheld via personal action.
   • They carry a balance scale with them at all times and believe justice in the universe needs to be achieved through individual deeds. They are always accompanied by the song and the sound of horns. They pursue justice for those they encounter along the way and shower them with wines and songs.
   • The Rangers "come and go like shadows," and there's little communication between them, and some even doubt that they can even be considered an "organization" to begin with as they all follow their own path along The Hunt, with their own resolute sense of righteousness, and don't share so-called universal values. The Galaxy Rangers don't need a form of shared faith. What brings them together is a shared bottom line: "Never bully the weak, never kill the innocent." These oaths aren't beliefs, but rather the fundamental bottom line that one must never cross as a person. As Galaxy Rangers, they abide by a common principle and strictly adhere to the bottom line.
   • The Galaxy Rangers have relics in the form of a bullet that appear meaningless to anyone other than a Galaxy Ranger, that can only fulfill its purpose when returned to its rightful owner. This is because it's a burial artifact, worthy only of a hero who has served the Galaxy Rangers with honor. The relic is shot out like a flare and when it is used, it means the fall of a hero, and in the direction it's light falls, Galaxy Rangers will come from all corners of the Cosmos, driven by a shared purpose, without questioning the cause or counting the cost.

   Xianzhou Alliance:

   • An ancient union composed of many intelligent races. They commandeer Xianzhou to eliminate the Abominations of Abundance. Directly allied with Lan THEMSELF, they travel the cosmos with the goal of eventually slaying Yaoshi.

   The Nameless:

   • The people who explore the universe together with the Aeon of Trailblaze. A group of brave and curious inter-galactic adventurers. The Nameless don't care about fame or profit. They continue to uphold the Path of Trailblaze even after Akivili's fall. When Akivili fell, a group of loyal Nameless carried on what the Aeon had started, continuing the exploration of the unknown. They held the belief that one day the will of Trailblaze will connect the entire universe. The Astral Express that once carried Akivili and THEIR followers still hurries between the stars till this day.

   Overview:

   • Penacony is considered the Planet of Festivities in the Asdana star system, being also known as Land of the Dreams. A luxurious hotel positioned above the fathomless sky, Penacony is also a vacation spot where interstellar celebrities party the days away and the affluent from diverse words revel in lavish ventures. People flock here in search of dreams they've longed for or have already buried, and through Dreampools in the hotel are transported to a realm of dreams where everything can come true.
   • Rarely do guests pay attention to Penacony's heavy past. A millennium ago, it was a frontier prison established by the IPC. Exiled prisoners must survive an arduous journey across vast distances to reach this location, and are then forced to take up a duty: To mend the leak through which memoria seeps into the galaxy. As they labor while being exposed to memoria, the prisoners gradually discovered themselves entering a captivating shared dream world, where they obtained a single shared desire — freedom.
   • After the eruption of the Cancer of All Worlds, the ownership of the Frontier Prison changed hands. Historical records related to this struggle are scarce and often questionable. However, some accounts clearly state that with the assistance of various factions - including the Mourning Actors, the Masked Fools, the Nameless, and the Omen Vanguards - the prisoners emerged as the new rulers of this nascent realm. Sounds of discord could then periodically be heard during the subsequent times when it became a land of exiles. It was only when The Family descended and took control of the Dreamscape that Penacony experienced unparalleled and explosive prosperity, transforming into a renowned cosmic resort.
   • During the Charmony Festival in 2158 AE, the legendary tycoon, known as the Watchmaker, sent a galaxy-wide invitation, summoning various factions to Penacony to compete for his invaluable legacy. Eventually, the Astral Express and its crew emerged victorious in this unprecedented festival, averting a grim future where the Cosmos would have become a hollow dream of a dead Aeon —Ena—. Under the guidance of the Trailblaze, the Planet of Festivities, once lost in revelry, returned to wakefulness. Its people no longer surrendered themselves to the Dreamscape but instead embraced the power to confront reality.

   Paths:

   • Strictly speaking, Penacony's philosophy corresponds to that of the Harmony; having been blessed by Xipe THEMSELF. This doesn't mean however that the worship of other Aeons is forbidden.
   • Before the last Charmony Festival, members of The Family secretly worshipped Ena, hoping to slay Xipe to revive the Aeon of Order— all to be stopped and incarcerated for altering the peace of the Dreamscape.

   Charmony Festival:

   • The Charmony Festival is marked by the arrival of the Embodiment of Harmony through the Chordmaster. During the Charmony Festival, one of the Harmonic Strings is summoned through the Harmony of Praise, where the people pray for a common dream and vision. With the arrival of the usual Embodiment of Harmony, Dominicus the Harmonious Choir, the people's prayers are answered and supreme bliss is granted. However, if the Family is currently waging a war, Aelenev the Eternal Centurion will be summoned instead, uniting the people to fight, destroying the Family's enemies, and assimilating the destroyed.
   • Though practiced on many planets, the Charmony Festival held on Penacony is the most prestigious and is thus only held once every Amber Era. The Festival is usually held in the Penacony Grand Theater accompanied by an extravagant performance.
   • Penacony also holds the SoulGlad™ Festivity Auditions, a preliminary event that offers VIP seats to the Charmony Festival in addition to the title of "Festive Superstar" and a shot at overnight fame.
   • Supposedly, a special Charmony Festival was held when The Family first arrived at Penacony to combat the Antimatter Legion that controlled the planet at the time. This Festival summoned Aelenev the Eternal Centurion, who unsheathed their Sword of Bounded Lives from the scabbard of 4,630,000 Hounds, forming an infinite rainbow. By the time the people in Penacony raised their heads from their shelter, the countless Voidrangers had been swallowed up into the iridescent colors, and the forces of Destruction never returned to the planet.

   The Family:

   • A collective force that reveres Xipe the Harmony. Their mission is to unite all civilizations in the universe, fostering unity, joy, and a harmonious future. They use their harmonious melody to call out to other worlds, extending an invitation to embrace the Harmony. In the loving radiance of Xipe, all those chosen become part of the Family, regardless of their diverse origins and civilizations, immersed in the comforting warmth of Harmony.
   • Thus, under the loving radiance of the Aeon Xipe, THEIR chosen people formed a harmonious "Family." They come from different worlds, belong to different civilizations, and have different identities, but they are, at the same time, the closest family members there are. There is never noisy disputes or even contradictions among its members, only eternal love and smiles — there is no more harmonious family in the universe than them.
   • The Family calls out to other worlds with their song, encouraging them to embrace Harmony. Whenever new worlds accept the blessing of Xipe, The Family will celebrate, rejoice, and work even harder at praising the Aeon's kindness. But not every blessed world can become a member of The Family. Few would mention the civilizations that perished out of stupidity or hubris. People are also curious whether any members of The Family had grown tired of the one and voluntarily abandoned the Path of Harmony? In the face of such a question, The Family smiles and replies "never."
   • In the vision of the Harmony, the diverse civilizations throughout the universe will eventually become as close as siblings, singing in unison the hymn of unity and joy. The universe will become a harmonious whole, with no discordant notes to disrupt the beautiful chords and no fools worrying about their own short-sighted futures.

   Structure:

   • The Family's exact structure and governance is unknown, but seems to vary based on world. Penacony's branch was divided into five major families, a structure that preceded the Family's presence on the planet. Given this, it is possible that the Family adapts to its member world's local societies, while adding its own systems and influence, as seen with the Dreammaster, who was a representative of the Montour System's Family branch sent to oversee Penacony's integration.
   • Known Territories: Byari Skamandros, Montour System, Penacony, Home of the Sulank

   History:

   • The Family was formed some time after Xipe the Harmony's ascension during the Swarm Disaster, and has grown over the years since to encompass countless worlds. The Beyond the Sky Choir, a group following Ena the Order, are implied to have integrated into the Family. *After a Stellaron crisis caused the IPC to lose control of the planet, Xipe descended on Penacony by invitation and integrated the former prisoners into The Family. While originally consisting of seven lineages, today the Family on Penacony comprises the five great lineages that manage various affairs.

   Five lineages in Penacony:

   1. Oak Family: The "Tree lineage" in charge of political organization. The leaders of the five lineages. Those of great ambition came together to assemble the Oak Family, and they are the ones responsible for forming the foundation for dreams. The Oak Family is in charge of the management and coordination of matters within the Dreamscapes. They are responsible for Penacony's rules and regulations and are shepherds in service of the Dreammaster's goals. Their office is centered at the Moment of Morning Dew where the majestic Dewlight Pavilion stands, providing a place for high-level members to discuss business.
   2. Iris Family: Led by Maeven Ellis. The "Flower lineage" in charge of culture. The founders of Penacony's entertainment industries. The most fabulous of artists usually come from the Iris Family. They are the faces of Penacony, in charge of receiving guests and giving performances, providing no shortage of cultured talent for Penacony's pool of artists and celebrities. Under the Iris Family is also the famous Himemia Films, which has created many a great work in Penacony's cinematic history. Additionally, the Sweet Dreams Troupe Dreamscape lifeforms made to service guests are also their property.
   3. Bloodhound Family: The "Beast lineage" in charge of security. The guardians of Penacony's safety and order. The Bloodhound Family are made up of brave warriors. They stand as the guardian of Dreamscapes, shouldering the immense burden of protecting this realm of dreams. All matters relating to policing and military action are conducted by the Bloodhound Family. The Bloodhound Family are dedicated to eradicating all dangers that might manifest in the Dreamscapes, ensuring the safety of their guests. Additionally, they exist as a potent force beyond the Dreamscapes as well, protecting the security of The Reverie itself.
   4. Alfalfa Family: Led by Oti Alfalfa. The "Grass lineage" in charge of economics. The governors of Penacony's wealth. A group of hardworking and flexible people make up the Alfalfa Family, and they run the markets of Penacony, dealing in auctions and monetary distribution while also attracting enterprises and entrepreneurs to the city. They are the economic backbone of the five lineages, and joining their ranks is often the greatest desire for Dreamchasers who seek wealth.
   5. Nightingale Family: Led by Sir Whittaker. The "Bird lineage" in charge of construction. They have invited builders and scholars from across the stars, tasking them all with creating marvelous Dreamscapes. The Nightingale Family is an assembly of the keenest and brightest minds, and is in charge of managing technology among the five lineages. The dream architects that the Nightingale Family employs are commonly called Dreamers. They gather along the borders of various Dreamscapes, always pushing the horizon of this world of fantasy. Aside from Dreamers dedicated to the construction of Dreamscapes, many members also research dream-based phenomena.

   Two fallen lineages in Penacony:

   • Lampmoth Family: In the decade following the war of independance, the Lampmoth Family left Penacony to repair the Star Rail alongside Tiernan, but were attacked by remnants of The Swarm.
   • Blackplum Family: Not much is known about the Blackplum Family other than they were founded and wiped out during the Penacony War of Independence. At some point in the war, the White Desert Incident occurred. In it, the Blackplum Family was lured into an ambush by the Alfalfa Family, orchestrated by Lakkika. A frontal battle broke out in a connecting corridor of the prison area, resulting in devastating casualties and wiping out the Blackplum Family.

   Harmonic Strings:

   • When asking about the presence of a hierarchy within The Family, one can expect a firm denial — The Family treats everyone equally without division of class, with no established levels or power structures. Each note holds equal significance in the music Xipe has composed. However, for collective progress, someone must assume a leadership role. As a result, Family members have returned to a system of differentiation based on scales, with only those above scale degree IV being eligible to serve as the tuner of the Harmonic Strings.
   • Harmony combines ideals from the multitudes and therefore has more than one way to achieve these ideals. The concept of Harmonic Strings is defined in the Harmony Hymns — They are the multiple embodiments of Xipe the Great One, the down-to-earth virtues that enable harmony. Regardless of whether you place yourself under The Family's rule, the Aeon will look favorably upon you as long as you carry out these good deeds. On worlds ruled by The Family, members often gather in large groups to engage in virtuous acts and play harmonious music. The thousands of tiny ropes come together to form a united string, welcoming the Embodiment of Harmony to manifest on the mortal plane and give blessings. The chosen one responsible for conducting The Family's ritual during that time and harmonizing the varied sounds is known as the tuner.
   • The Family never shied away from promoting the great names of the embodiment of the thousand-faced god, such as Aelenev the commander of the Eternal Centurion, Dominicus the wisher of the Harmonious Choir, Constantina the singer of the Panacoustic Theater, and Beatriz the merrymaker of the Blissful Ball... However, few have witnessed their radiant presence going beyond the boundaries of The Family. Opposers of Harmony argue that the Harmonic Strings are nothing short of the Emanators of Xipe — These do not follow any specific mortal but are facets of Xipe, and can assume the form of any Family member when necessary.

   1. Aelenev, the commander of the Eternal Centurion: Aelenev is one of the many embodiments of Xipe the Harmony. When Aelenev is summoned, it typically indicates someone will be punished. It is said that Aelenev only shows up for The Family's wars, uniting them into a cohesive force, and that everyone he destroys ends up getting assimilated, becoming one of The Family.
   2. Beatriz, the merrymaker of the Blissful Ball: Beatriz the merrymaker of the Blissful Ball is one of the four Harmonic Strings, an embodiment of Xipe and Emanator of Harmony.
   3. Constantina, the singer of the Panacoustic Theater: Constantina the singer of the Panacoustic Theater is one of the four Harmonic Strings, an embodiment of Xipe and Emanator of Harmony.
   4. Dominicus, the wisher of the Harmonious Choir: Dominicus is one of the many embodiments of Xipe the Harmony. During the once-in-an-era Charmony Festival, Family members would gather at the theater to welcome the Harmonious Choir that blesses Penacony with everlasting peace.

   Reality:

   • Although called the "Planet of Festivities", the actual physical structure of Penacony in reality is that of a colossal artificial space station-like megastructure which houses The Reverie Hotel, surrounded by two small Alderson disks orbiting it. The alderson disks have several landmasses and bodies of water, which were said to be once barren deserts.
   • City buildings can be seen jutting out on both from the "top" and "underside" of the alderson disks. Charmony Doves are a species of bird that inhabit Penacony. Penacony is located in the Asdana, a star system brimming with memoria, which has historically been one of the Macro Voids that leaked out from the Memory Zone. The memoria concentration surrounding Penacony is above normal levels.

   Dreamscape:

   • Penacony's Dreamscape is divided into twelve main discrete dream worlds, collectively called the "Twelve Hours," each corresponding to a "moment" on the clock:

   1. Moment of Midnight: The Moment of Midnight is the starting point of all dreams. People tend to overlook this moment, believing there's nothing beyond the inky darkness it presents. Chuckles and laughter can be heard from entering the dream.
   2. Moment of Serenity: When the first ray of sunlight shines over the horizon. Serenity is said to be where the most terrifying convicts and "interesting people" are held and the jail can be seen on the Nightmare's edge.
   3. Moment of Morning Dew: The start of a day. Morning Dew is where the majestic Dewlight Pavilion stands, providing a place for high-level members of the Oak Family to discuss business and is where one would go to meet the Family.
   4. Moment of Daybreak: Daybreak is where the Dawn Factory is located, one of the many "imagination factories" which processes the foundation of the dreamscape and where workers create all kinds of whimsical works day in and day out in their dreams such as garments.
   5. Moment of Gilded Hour: Presumably the moment before noon. Gilded Hour is Penacony's Currency Center where the exquisitely dressed Pepeshi people of the Alfalfa Family keep fortress-like financial city that is the economic heart of Penacony running, always in a hurry to deposit the Alfalfa credits that they earned into the bank's vault and sending blood that is made from money everywhere on Penacony.
   6. Moment of Sol: The moment that strikes noon. Sol is steeped in Penacony's history and civilization and contain's Penacony's Grand Museum, the Primal Waking Library and the Penacony Paperfold University College.
   7. Moment of Oasis: Presumably afternoon. Oasis has natural scenes such as Sunshine Park and a beach.
   8. Moment of Scorchsand: Presumably the moment before dusk. Scorchsand has vast fields, wild winds, taverns, and a "festive choice" of venue. It also hosts the SoulGlad™ Scorchsand Audition Venue.
   9. Moment of Dusk: Dusk is said to be a shopping paradise of chic, luxury and consumerism, and includes the Penacony Auction Hall among other places.
   10. Moment of Blue Hour: Presumably the moment after dusk. Blue Hour is said to be very romantic, featuring a dock, a large boat called the "Eventide" anchored along the Sea of Dreams where extravagant balls and marriage services are organized, and an airship called the Radiant Feldspar that sails through all dreamscapes.
   11. Moment of Stars: Based on the 11th hour of the clock. Stars has an amusement park, clubs, casinos, and various sporting competitions, including Spheroid, Roboball, and Unicycler.
   12. Moment of Golden Hour: Based on the moment before midnight. Golden Hour is said to be the most prosperous "Moment" in Penacony, showcasing an entire city bathed in luxury and is the location of the Penacony Grand Theater.

   Overview:

   • Clockie is a popular and long-running cartoon series exclusive to Penacony. With over 10,000 episodes aired, the series follows the life and adventures of Clockie and his companions in the fictional town of Dreamville. The animation's clever style, evocative music, exaggerated yet charismatic character movements, willingness to explore the theme of love, syrupism, and slightly provocative behaviors have endeared it to numerous fans. Through a series of animated movies, stage plays, comics, and video game spin-offs, the Clockie animation series has gained significant popularity within Penacony. However, this series remains relatively unknown on other planets, possibly due to its retro art style.
   • The Clockie series and related films are produced by Clock Studios. Clock Studios Theme Park is an amusement park dedicated to the Clockie IP, with attractions relating to the main characters of the series, such as Hanu and Hamster Ball Knight, and a venue for screening movies and episodes of Clockie.

   Main Characters:

   1. Clockie (Original name: "Compassie") — The protagonist of a popular animated series in Penacony, Clockie embodies optimism, wit, and boundless energy, yet also displays a reckless side. For reasons unknown, Clockie frequently appears in the Dreamscape, visible only to those with a childlike soul. Clockie is a small, cartoony figure with an analogue clock for a head. The hour hand and minute hand on his clock face are green and dark red, respectively. He wears a white dress shirt, a red bowtie, black suspenders connecting to a pair of brown shorts, white gloves, and black shoes. Clockie has a high pitched voice and often starts or finishes sentences with "Tic-Tac!".
   2. Hanu: Hanu is based on the historical figure Hanunue, who was the first prisoner to rebel against the IPC. He is a close friend of Clockie and Hamster Ball Knight. A character possessing wolf-like features, seen as the "big brother" of the town and holds the role of safeguarding Dreamville's peace. Cool, composed, and dependable, he possesses an array of weapons and takes pride in his stylish hat. He leads a group of brothers dressed in black uniforms and bowler hats. He is said to be a brave guy who does not fear danger, sticks to his morals, and helps his friends in dire situations. According to his character traits, he can only speak by making grunts that sound cool. Hanu is a small, gremlin-like creature with a big nose, large black sunglasses, two fangs pointing upward, and gray sideburns that phase through his dark-grey hat with an ivory line. He wears a blue coat with four black buttons. Underneath that he wears a white shirt and a black tie. He wears black shoes that appear to be at least knee-high.
   3. Hamster Ball Knight: A character only appearing in a select few Clockie cartoons. Its true identity is actually the most commercially successful spheroid rider in Penacony: a massive cosmic hamster with exceptional intelligence.
   4. Boss Stone: He is the major antagonist of the Clockie animated series, based on the IPC's ruling of Penacony before its independence. A hefty crocodile wearing a suit.

   Overview:

   • Astropolis (adjectival: Astropolitan), also known as the City of Converging Stars, serves as the headquarters of Interastral Peace Entertainment, and stands without question as the absolute pinnacle of what the traditional entertainment industry can achieve. Sunshine, sandy beaches, crashing waves, motorsports, cinema, influencers... Every conceivable form of entertainment is dressed up in lavish finery, bankrolled by staggering credits, and put on grand display in this premier resort destination of the universe.
   • It acts as the headquarters of Interastral Peace Entertainment (and by extension, the Traditional Project Department) and the IPC's vacation resort. It is located in the Epsilon system.
   • Due to experiments from the Technology Department led by Yabuli, Astropolis also counts with its own imagenae and wispae.

   Description:

   • Among the ultra-wealthy of the universe, a well-worn saying has passed from lip to lip: "If you want to lose yourself in a kaleidoscopic dreamscape of bespoke fantasies, head to Penacony under The Family's wing. If you want to witness a pulse-pounding game where fortunes and fates hang in the balance, the Casilo Carnival is calling your name. And if you want to blow through a mountain of coins on the most unapologetically lavish vacation money can buy, then Astropolis on Epsilon is your one and only destination."
   • Beyond the transient travelers, Astropolis is home to three kinds of permanent residents: employees of Interastral Peace Entertainment, media moguls with devoted followings, and dreamchasers who would do anything to secure a foothold in the city. The employees live within the hive communities, keeping their professional smiles plastered on whether they're clocking in or out, living their lives like a soap opera that only those on the inside truly understand. The handful of media moguls commanding massive audiences carve out their own kingdoms within the broadcast studios. As for those who come from distant worlds, even an emperor of a frontier planet who empties his entire treasury and sells everything he owns can barely afford a single week's residency in Astropolis.
   • The true masters of Astropolis, the directors of the Interastral Peace Corporation, have never been shy about flaunting their status. Their estates occupy the highest and most central positions in all of Astropolis. It is said that if you were to treat Astropolis as a geometric solid, its center would be equidistant from every surface: equally, utterly out of reach. And yet, for all the towering grandeur of the directors' mansions, the distance between the Amber Lord and these titans of capital may be no closer than the distance between those same titans and an ordinary person.

   Geography:

   • Retro futuristic, beach vibes.
   • The megastructure of Astropolis resembles a giant hollowed-out cube with transparent sphere ports on each side. The circular ecological megastructure on the interior surface is dotted with curving artificial sea environments and landmasses arranged in hexagonal sections where high-tech living units for IPC employees are also located. The seamless integration of natural ecology and technological convenience is the company's gold standard for an "ideal life" city. Suspended in the center of Astropolis is a smaller megastructure called Skycall Aery. It's the heart of the entire Astropolis, but on very rare occasions, it temporarily serves as the heart of the entire Pan-Cosmic Trade System.
