Every tragedy has a beginning…. And ours start’s three thousand years prior to our current day. The Tenth Order was a body consisting of Ten Realms all serving one main Order within their solar system. Each Realm had a primary function within the Order and they all worked together for the good of the Order. The good of the Order however… was not always noble or just. The Order hadn’t obtained such power within their own system through purely political means… no, the Order had one of the most advanced military’s in known existence. Having ten separate inhabitable planets played a large role in the Order’s strength. Some planets were uninhabitable by certain species, but throughout time new settlers found their way to those planets. They would then terraform them to their needs unless they were compatible enough to inhabit those planets on arrival.

The Order travelled all of known space within reach, conquering system after system plundering their resources and leaving their planets in ruins. Using waves of foot soldiers so brutal with advanced suits and weaponry, there was hardly a planet who could stand up to the orbital bombardment and foot soldiers. When the Order came across such planets, their special forces the Nekros would be tasked with sneaking behind enemy lines and taking down the chain of command. If by some miraculous chance the Nekros failed their jobs, the Order would lean on their most advanced weaponry within their arsenal, the Chronos.

The Chronos were advanced mobile mechanical suits with the ability to be customized for any situation called for on the battle field. With near impossibly penetrable shields the Chronos once called in always made quick work of any remaining enemy forces still holding out. The pilots within the Chronos themselves were merely that, pilots who mechanically directed them in battle. In this period the Chronos were rather basic with three main chassis types and minimal upgrades aside from weaponry load outs. They were very expensive and took almost a decade at a time to build with energy supplies that weren’t able to be replenished in those days.

Their crusades spanned thousands of years and all the while dissidents grew within the Order.  Planets tired of being pawns at the beck and call of the Emperor and his underlings and as the Realms grew tiresome of the constant war and suffering on their own planets…. A plot was hatched to overthrow the Emperor… to bury the very existence of their history… and Realm from all of known existence.
