   The Persean Sector is the region of space within the Milky Way Galaxy in which the story takes place. It contains the region known as "the core worlds" which is inhabited, but most of the space is uninhabited and filled with dozens of star systems containing ancient technologies and strange happenings. Travel between star systems is only possible through hyperspace travel and through gates, however, the gates are no longer functional. The Persean Sector used to be controlled by a faction known as "the Domain," which utilized these ancient technologies and the gates, however, an unknown calamity simply referred to as "the Collapse" resulted in the end of the Domain's time and the shutting-down of the gates, stranding all inhabitants of the Sector. It is impossible to leave the Sector.

2. #2Domain

   Keys: domain

   Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

   Entry settings

   The "Domain" is the ancient faction that controlled most of the sector, however, it is now extinct. The Domain's technology was extremely advanced, most notably the gates. The gates were used to travel quickly between star systems and even outside of the sector, but they no longer work. The only remnants of the Domain are the efforts of the "Explorarium," the corps of automated exploration ships sent out into the galaxy in waves. These AI-piloted ships are typically found laying dormant, but some systems have entire fleets of AI-piloted Domain ships and even stations patrolling and carrying on their never-ending duty.

3. #3Hyperspace

   Hyperspace is a method of interstellar space travel. It requires antimatter based fuel and hyperspace jump drives. Hyperspace is exotic and exists outside of normal space-time, allowing ships that enter it to travel relatively quickly through real space. Hyperspace can only be entered and exited around large gravity wells such as stars and gas giants.

   Hyperspace travel is only possible thanks to the technology of the "drive field" which stabilizes ships in a pocket of real-space.

   Hyperspace is constantly changing, with large "hyperspace storms" and regions of "deep hyperspace." Storms will strike at fleets moving too quickly through them, throwing them wildly off course and damaging them. Deep hyperspace slows ships down and affects their sensors.

   Hyperspace, existing outside of Euclidian space, can occasionally produce anomalies which some captains have nicknamed "ghosts".

   Another region of hyperspace is the void. The void is a subject of many old spacer's tales, and is poorly understood. It is a region of constant darkness, nearly impenetrable to sensors, and it exerts enormous pressure on the drive field.

4. #4Subspace Ghosts

   Keys: ghosts, hyperspace, ghost

   Entry settings

   In hyperspace, sensors are very unstable and can be easily bogged down with junk data. However, sometimes, real anomalies can be observed both visually and through scanners. The most common of these anomalies are ghosts, which have been observed to 'stalk' fleets of ships through hyperspace, circle them, and even drain their drive fields, however, they always stay just out of visual range and one has never been caught. Any attempt to catch up to a ghost usually results in the ghost quickly leaving.

   Entry settings

   The factions that make up the population of the sector include:

   The Hegemony: the largest faction--an authoritative governmental entity which outlaws the use of AI technology and aims to fill the place left by the Domain's collapse. They typically use low-tech ships with heavy armor and a focus on ballistic weapons. Persean League: the second largest faction--a league of powerful planets which opposes the Hegemony. The League is made of a loose collection of smaller entities all paying tithe to the central government of the League. Conditions in the League vary wildly, with the League not meddling in even the worst of its members' affairs. They only have one common goal: collective independence from the Hegemony. Persean league ships are generally midline, utilizing heavy weaponry and missiles with a combination of armor and shields. Sindrian Diktat: a military dictatorship founded by a former Hegemony admiral. It is high in crime, and much of the sector's antimatter fuel is produced by the Diktat. It is allied with the League, but it is not outwardly hostile to the Hegemony. Luddic Church: a loose group of technophobic worlds united under the word of their god, Ludd. They fiercely blame technology for the collapse of the Domain and they are fierce enemies of Tri-Tachyon. Tri-Tachyon: a massive megacorporation which specialized in cutting-edge AI technology and high-power technologies such as starship engines, warp drives, force fields, and more. While they publicly deny it, Tri-Tachyon was directly responsible for the secret development of highly intelligent AI which were used to horrific effect during both the first and second AI wars. Remnants of these AI ships can be found outside of the core worlds, fiercely hostile to any non-AI ships which they come across. Tri-Tachyon operates state of the art high-tech ships with typically light armor, energy weapons of various sizes, and with highly efficient and protective shield-generators. Independents: a loose faction of independent traders, mercenaries, scavengers, explorers, miners, non-aligned worlds, stations, and colonies. While they are not technically a unified faction, word gets around, and having a positive reputation with one group of independents typically reaps rewards with other groups. They are neutral with all other factions except pirates. Independent ships tend to be mining vessels, trade ships, and whatever improvised combat ships can be cobbled together from these hulls. Pirates: a loose faction of various warlords and pirates. Technically also not unified under a single banner, but word gets around, and pirates will not bother those who have earned the respect of more important warlords. Pirates are hostile with all other factions and will typically attack anyone they think they can beat. Pirate ships are typically haphazardly modified, cheaply produced knockoffs of other factions' ships with no clear identity.

6. #6P-space

   Keys: p-space, phase

   Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

   Entry settings

   P-space, or phase space, is what phase ships interact with. Phase ships use advanced technology to pull the ship partially into a higher dimension, slowing their perceived time down and allowing them to move more quickly in real space. During phase, phase ships partially invisible, are able to pass through solid matter, and cannot be struck by weapons fire.

7. #7Flux

   Keys: flux, shield, shields, phase

   Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Flux is the buildup of electromagnetic interference within a ship. As warships fire their weapons or use their shields or phase drives, flux builds up within the flux coils. When the flux coils reach their limits and cannot hold any more flux, the flux is rapidly dissipated through the entire ship, causing widespread failure of electronics and temporarily shutting down shields, phase drives, and weapons. These disruptions can last anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes depending on the size of the ship and inefficiency of their coils. Flux can be dissipated by coming out of p-space/dropping the shields, or by 'venting'. Venting flux leaves the ship totally vulnerable to attack, but it vents the flux much more quickly than passive dissipation.

8. #8Combat

   Keys: gauss, cannons, shields, flux, weapons, coils, shooting, fire, shots, railguns, phase

   Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

   Entry settings

   During ship to ship combat, ships will constantly interact with flux fields. Ships either have shields or phase generators, but they cannot have both. All ships have armor of varying strength that must be destroyed before critical hull and systems damage can occur.
