First a little galactic history

Late earth 20th century, earth invades by the Xidus (spider descendants)

This triggered their 5th stage evolution (the final perfect stage)

 

War ensued but not before Earth itself burned

 

Shortly after this the Core System Alliance was formed in an effort to stop a galactic war

The main race of the CSA was the Sumai Thraxians (a peaceful race)

They were being trained to war once again by a Terran named Max (the brother of the Terran leader Price)

 

It was then that the Arcadians decided to come back from their self imposed exile

 

50,000 years ago the Arcadians and Sumai were at war

(Sumai led by a god empress who ordered them to war)

It was bloody slaughter on both sides

At the last moment the Arcadians pulled back to give the Sumai the chance to evolve to the 5th stage.

To recover they used Magic to hide arcadia and left the galaxy

 

After millennia they became just a myth

 

Whether by accident or design time passed differently

 So that when Arcadia returned 50,000 years had passed and the universe had changed.

The home system was inhabited by another race (who were shocked when the planet just appeared)

The Sumai Thraxians had become all that they had hoped

And another war was brewing

 

Well the Arcadians joined the CSA and that caused a surge in membership

And a fragile peace between Terra and Xid was negotiated

(The kind of peace while both sides is re-arming)

 

Caught in the center of the eventual battleground is the Prospero system

The party and vacation place of the galaxy

Any war would wipe out the entire system

 

However as well as a party place it also boasts the largest collection of mercenaries and badasses in the universe (as well as a great deal of money)

 

That’s where we come in!

Our mission “find a way to stop the war”

Our reward 5 million credits and title to a planet of our own

 

Well what’s a guy to do?

 

Arcadians

 

Ok now a little about us

 

Basically humanoid in appearance except for the wings and a neon blue glow

The blue glow is caused by infusion with Mana (the energy of the universe)

 

The only race to have developed and commonly use Magic (most others technological peoples)

 

Accomplished sword masters and mages alike

And wise beyond their appearance (50,000 years did pass if a little strangely)

 

Each Arcadian belongs to a school that denotes the kind of training and life path they have

  I was trained as a diplomat and spy (all Arcadians are trained in magic and swordplay also)

With a particular skill in the charming and seduction of Terran females (particularly governors wives!)

 

After a snag (getting caught in the act so to speak)

I was hiding out in the Prospero system when my Headmaster (leader of my school) asked if I would

Join the quest for avoiding war (getting the planet and the money as a reward)

 

So I went off with the crew to find a place to start
