Planet Crucible
(This will not mention hero stories as it will be more fun if you level up and find out yourself 😉 )
Planet Crucible is classed as rogue planet, first founded by the Unity (Organisation that contains space faring races such as Humans and other Alien species.) They expected to find a frozen planet and what they found was far from their expectations, a planet full of alien life.
This also led to the discovery of essence, a substance that could affect material and organics in new and un-foreseen ways. Essence was inside of all the animal and plant life and was also found beneath the surface. Able to re-write genetic code, essence was only found here and highly sought out in the galaxy.
The unity would later establish a research base on planet as well as an orbital station above, They would go onto to find vast amounts of essence beneath the surface, this began drilling operations which will then be shipped off planet.
The planet then rebelled and attacked back, native fauna grew out of no where, quickly ripping through the base and predators came swarming in. There was no chance of a rescue as ships were torn from the sky. A deadly fog would soon follow, wrapping the planet in a dense toxic fog. 520 people died in a single day, the base known as colony zero was decimated and no more.
The Unity would then send in soldiers to re-take the planet and base but this quickly failed resulting in the complete destruction of the forces sent in. The Unity still wanted to obtain the essence.
The Unity then turned to free agents, independent contractors, representatives of member planets, and other highly motivated individuals. Using the orbital station, the Unity was able to push the toxic atmosphere to create a temporary safe zone, teleporting the hunters down to gather as much essence as possible before the the atmosphere covers the safe zone back up.
However nothing was ever easy, the essence messed up the teleporters on the station and would go down once one group of essence hunters make it back alive. Those without essence or have failed could be teleported back up to the station before the station loses control to the essence and only those who survive can keep the essence, those who fail will be sent to eh medbay and allowed to try again.
I hope this helps some of you out on what’s going on in the world – dont forget to read my other guides ^^
