Zamoz, Jewel of the Galaxy
In a far-off galaxy, the Galactic Empire ruled over countless worlds with an iron fist. Their armies were fearsome, their technology was unmatched, and their leader, Emperor Shadaaq, was known for his cruelty and ambition. Shadaaq was a cunning and ruthless ruler who sought to dominate all civilizations in the multiverse. He believed that by conquering planets and absorbing their culture and technology, he could maintain his grip on power and become the most powerful ruler in the universe.
To achieve his goals, Shadaaq and his army of loyal soldiers travel from planet to planet, using their advanced technology, psychics, and magic to overpower the native species and cultures. This process not only secures the conquered planet as a resource for the empire but also allows them to absorb the culture and technology of the conquered civilization. Particularly key planets are moved into orbit around Zamoz itself.
Emperor Shadaaq had many children, all of whom he raised to be as ruthless and ambitious as himself. Each child was given a planet to rule over, and some more than one, and they were tasked with conquering new worlds to add to the Empire. Not all were equally interested in these tasks.
As the Empire grew, so too did the Emperor's power. He became increasingly paranoid and suspicious, seeing betrayal and treason everywhere. His children, too, became wary of each other, each vying for more power and influence within the Empire.
Under Emperor Shadaaq's leadership, the Empire has reigned supreme over the galaxy, but at a great cost. The people of the conquered planets are oppressed, and their cultures erased, and absorbed into the Empire's own. The Emperor's many children squabble amongst themselves, each plotting to seize power from the other.
Moons
Eldoria:The planet was a lush paradise of sprawling forests, filled with an incredible array of flora and fauna. But most fascinating of all were the ethereal psychic inhabitants, who lived in harmony with nature and have the ability to communicate with each other through thought. The planet is a wonder to behold, a true jewel of the galaxy. Once its people had been conquered, it was brought into orbit around Zamoz and is ruled by Shadaaq's son, Reginald, the Hunter.
Kupra: A planet that is a sort of mirror image of Zamoz, though not as large. A curious sort of reverse version of the imperial palace exists here as well as a copy of the imperial family's symbol of power, a great labyrinth that can consume those who try to walk it, if they aren't ready or aren't of the blood.
Astria: The planet was a world of archipelagos of stunning beauty with elegant marble architecture that speaks to a rich cultural history of research, philosophy, and seafaring. The people of this world have mastered an elegant mix of magic and science that the Emperor greatly covets. So far, though their world has been brought into orbit around Zamoz, but their mix of magic and technology has kept the Empire at bay, much to the frustration of Shadaaq. Eventually, he will tire of waiting and destroy the planet rather than allow it to become a beacon of resistance, but that day is not today.
Sucephus: The planet was a barren wasteland, a vast expanse of desert that stretched as far as the eye could see. But hidden within the sands were a remarkable people, a race of lizard men who were renowned for their prowess in science and technology. Despite the harsh conditions of their world, the lizard men had developed remarkable innovations that allowed them to thrive in the unforgiving desert. Their cities were marvels of engineering, built to withstand the brutal climate and harness the planet's resources in ingenious ways. And their scientists were among the most brilliant in the galaxy, pushing the boundaries of knowledge and discovery to new heights. For the lizard men, their harsh world was both a challenge and an inspiration, driving them to reach for greatness in all they did.
