The Story and the Setting - DevDiary 3
We greet you, Directors!
Here we are, with another DevDiary, this time talking about the game's Story!
Previous installments:
These are no ordinary times to be a leader among Humanity. It has befallen you to lead our first manned expedition outside our galaxy, and it’s not just for exploration. The Earth is in danger, soon to be overrun by the real lords of the Milky Way. It is you who must find a new home for Humanity, or find a way to win the seemingly unwinnable war back home.
However, you’re not all alone at the top. You have the council of your closest advisors; the best navy officer the European continent has to offer, Grand Admiral Élodie Perron, leading the military. An ex-special forces veteran Karolina Jurić in charge of policing and infrastructure, a leading private pharmaceutical magnate Simon Lorenz as your science officer. And the negotiator responsible for strong-arming the Expedition into existence, Evan Loch.
With these people, you will, without any doubt, lead the Expedition to tremendous success.
What may make matters more complicated is that the Pegasus Galaxy is far from empty. Every move you make is a step on someone’s toes, or a violation of someone's sphere of influence. The Pegasus Galaxy is in a delicate state of status quo when you arrive… And that balance has no room for you.
The Maelstyrakh clans are a proud but divided species. Always in the shadow of their more advanced and centralised neighbours, the Maelstyrakh are bitterly and eagerly waiting for someone to disturb the balance.
The Tamanin Empire is the pinnacle of civilization in the Pegasus Galaxy. However, they’ve been that for a long time now, which has the tendency to make empires turn inwards. The current Empress Intan Solik has forced the ambitious houses and warlords into an uneasy truce. But should something happen to the already old Empress, anything could follow.
In addition to the locals, there are other newcomers than you… Some more agreeable, some less so.
The Pegasus Galaxy is full of tension, and full of opportunity. You will build a new home for Humanity, but at whose expense, Director?
