Factions

The Galactic Government is run by the Council, a group of elected individuals chosen to represent the interests of all life in the galaxy as a whole. The Citadel is an enormous space station and the capital of the Galactic Government. There are numerous embassies on the Citadel, and is also the seat of the Council. The Council has agents called Spectres, who are given various freedoms to enact justice for the Council. Their official title is Special Tactics and Reconnaissance (SpecTRe). Right now your characters don't know this, but this is posted because it will soon be common knowledge.

Citadel and Galactic Government

The Citadel is known for its distinct five arm structure (below).

- Xenon, a corporation which owns a planet, city, moon, spacestation, and other vessels and assets. Xenon specializes in providing elite security forces for high bidders. Xenon Security Forces (XSF) are known for their black armor and red armbands.

- Velusians, an intelligent race of beings that inhabit a planet nearby the planet Xenon. They are a warrior race, and have uplifted a minor race from their own world, called the Abyssins. The Abyssins are far less intelligent than the Velusians, but are often more savage and agile when it comes to combat.
