You are stranded in space, freshly awakened by the life support capsule that has just entered a shutdown phase due to the ship going into auxiliary power. You have no memory and looking out of your ship you can see you are in a debris field orbiting a small celestial body. Inspecting the ship reveals it is a small transport-class cruiser with no weaponry and a water purifier, there is also a standard EXO Suit in the cockpit. Your only goal at the moment is to ensure your survival through any means necessary. [b]Transcendent Prometheus subverts spawn closing by traveling through sub-dimensions, closing it behind him. The spawn is currently closed. New players may be able to join later.[/b] To spawn in simply post your chosen class and first action, there will be a time where I directly give feedback before it becomes open world and you may interact with other survivors.

Humans were tolerated as a younger life form but tension between other races are common with the unruly nature humans are known for. The Jauncian race is a mixed species with a complex genome from many interspecies mating that mainly has colonies in deep space preferring null-g rather than on a planet. Their appearance varies greatly from clan to clan due to long frames of time where outside contact is rare. The Vanisian race is a species of high intellect that evolved from a reptilian-like creature that could blend into the environment. Due to being advanced intellectually they survived on their harsh planet of Vanishnor where the indigenous wildlife is highly aggressive. Transcendents are a big unknown in both galaxies at the time, having just appeared in the past century there are rumors that they are immortal creatures descending from the creators of the universe themselves. (Although myths are commonly blown out of proportion). Cyborgs are a common lifestyle in this new era and are utilized by all races but the transcendents. A person usually loses any touch they had with special powers when they undergo the process of becoming a cyborg in favor for upgradable system machinery.[/spoiler] About the OP: [spoiler]I sleep in..
