The Story

On Star Date 58844.9 a race only known as the cleansing washed through the known galaxy with frightening speed and veracity. Empires that had been for thousands of years fell before them. Whole planets and trillions of beings were lost to the cleansing as they swept through Galaxy like a plague. Earth, Q’nos, Romulus, the Borg homeworld, the Dominions homeworld and many more were obliterated without warning. The death toll was beyond measure and the surviving races knew that the only way the cleansing could be stopped was by driving them out of the galaxy. 

The surviving races joined forces and were able to developed and construct over 2,000 Omega devices that would, upon detonation, prevent the use of Warp Drive throughout the galaxy forever. 

The devices were placed by each race in the system of their new founded homeworlds, and detonated. 

For hundreds of years each race lived in peace on their homeworld awaiting the day that they could return to the stars. But over time their knowledge and technology was lost to them and each race fell into an era of darkness that last3e nearly fifteen hundred years. But eventually, each of the races began to long and complicated process of rediscovering and rebuilding their technological base. Through their efforts many of them were once again able to venture out into the stars. They discovered that Warp Drive was only useable within a planetary solar system; the gravity of the star had pulled the Omega particles from the region allowing warp drive to function. But the vast distances between systems were still un-travelable by any means.

But nature had a little surprise for those who began to explore. Little is know about how Warp Points were created, but their discovery once again allowed the races to explore beyond their own solar systems. 

The year is 2400.0 Post apocalypse, and the galaxy awaits your exploration.
