{Dristential}
In the sprawling universe of {Dristential}, ancient myths collide with futuristic marvels. Here, heroes known as Dristential harness the enigmatic power of the Dris, a cosmic energy that fuels their journey across vast space stations, enchanted planets, and mystical realms. Amidst clashes between rival civilizations, the elusive magics of Quasar Nexus Conduits, and the intricate dance of time itself, these heroes strive to shape destiny, confront cosmic entities, and etch their legends into the tapestry of existence.
{Dristential} (stylized as {D}) is a chaotic setting that mixes all genres, incorporating magic and technology to develop a large, idiosyncratic universe filled with several planets and realities.
The Iridescent Currency of the {D} Franchise
Station Nations
The Station Nations are a collection of interconnected space stations forming a vast web around a central star, which provides the energy that sustains them. Each station state is a unique nation with its own culture, technology, and governance. From the highly diversified and technologically advanced Unitary States of America to the zealous, church-based State of Deseret, and the anarchistic Reservation of Native Amereeka, these nations interact through alliances, conflicts, and the shared struggle against cosmic threats. The intricate network of these stations showcases a blend of Steampunk, Steelpunk, Teslapunk, Raygun Gothic, and Cassette Futurism aesthetics, housing a wide array of life forms, both organic and cyber-enhanced.
The Station Nations are a melting pot of diverse life forms, ranging from the adaptable human Khetki and their mystically inclined Hanaledibilis kin, to the subterranean Dhold, the insectoid Urzit'eth, the aquatic Eeltnae, the warrior-like Urgriel, and the ethereal Xitaiel. Beyond these varied races, the Station Nations also intersect with multiple dimensions. Magic within the Stations is deeply intertwined with the technology, particularly through the Quasar Nexus Conduits, which blend arcane energies with advanced machinery. This magical-technical synergy fuels the vibrant, interconnected life within the Stations, shaping their societies and driving their continuous evolution.
Morde
Morde is the central star powering the Station Nations, an immense source of energy harnessed to sustain the interconnected web of space stations. Surrounding Morde is an artificial world, akin to a Dyson Sphere, designed to devour its energy and provide life and power to the Station Nations. This world features at least ten poles that connect it to the Station Nations, each pole hosting a massive city. Among these cities are Avaleris, a sprawling metropolis with slums and corridors instead of skyscrapers, and Virellum Aelthros, a technologically advanced society dedicated to harnessing and distributing the star’s energy. The life forms on this artificial world have adapted to its unique conditions, creating a rich environment of cultures and ecosystems that thrive in the light and heat of Morde.
Deep within this Sphere, where the energy and magic of Morde are at their most potent, lie the twin worlds of Nio-Terrese and Nola-Mundis. These realms are steeped in both technological marvels and mystical energies, forming a nexus of innovation and arcane power. Nio-Terrese is renowned for its ancient forests interwoven with bioluminescent flora and cybernetic wildlife, while Nola-Mundis is shrouded in perpetual twilight, home to enigmatic ruins and arcane academies that harness the primal forces of the Sphere. Together, they represent the pinnacle of the harmonious blend of nature, technology, and magic that defines the heart of the Station Nations.
Alternate Reality
Aarde exists in a parallel reality within the {Dristential} universe, presenting a unique contrast to the Station States. While the Station States are a network of interconnected space stations housing diverse species, Aarde focuses on a single planet with its own unique ecosystems and civilizations. Additionally, within the same timeline of Aarde, there exists a post-human world called Ignaiar, where various sentient animals have taken over, creating a rich and diverse narrative landscape that explores life both during and after human dominance.
