The Bright Star System

The Bright Star System is the title of the solar system revolving around the star Elariel, noted for its unusual brightness. Around Elariel thirteen planets revolve, as well as an advanced asteroid belt, a rogue planet and several moons. It is an old system, with highly advanced planets with the majority of them populated.

The Genesis Migration
Following the Genesis Collapse, tens of thousands of Genesse people were delivered by the mysterious entity known as Saint Genevieve, spared by the travesty that befell their planet and solar system. This caused the integration of the Genesse people into several Bright Star planets and societies, creating several new species such as the Umushi of Neo and the Zweikin of Belogvardeyski.

The Fall of Eyrith
The Fall of Eyrith was brought about by Arex, which became known as Repent, after an unjust and spontaneous attack that wiped out the entire population and decimated the surface. The entire population aside from one notable exception.

The Blind War
"Main article: The Blind War"Following the Fall of Eyrith came the Blind War, wherein Neo rose up in vengeance and defence against Arex. Following this, several planets got involved, some taking the side of Arex, while the majority joined Neo. Apoc, however, was neutral, as well as Apotelesma.

The Formation of the Interplanetary Allegiance
"Main article: The Interplanetary Allegiance"After the destructive war, an alliance was created that prompted the remaking of Arex identity into the mournful Repent and an agreement for peace, collaboration and planning. Each planet elected a Representative to deal in interplanetary matters, alongside a Council. This allegiance created an actually linear and fluid communication between each planet, rather than unmonitered and sparse communications.

Celestial Bodies
In order of proximity to Elariel are the following celestial bodies:

Blight
"Main article: Blight"A lifeless planetoid so close to Elariel that it lives in perpetual day, and the radiation is severe enough that no species has grown.

Lachrymose
"Main article: Lachrymose"A planet verging on planetoid that is orbitally locked so that there is no tilt to encourage the shifting from day to night, leaving one side perpetually in darkness and one in perpetual day. It has never been explored, at least not in any documented fashion, and any expeditions towards it have either been unsuccessful or unreported. It is unknown if there is life on Lachrymose, if it can sustain life or suffered anything to impact life, and if there is a presence of life there have been no attempt from Lachrymose to reach out.

Rhahlios
"Main article: Rhahlios"Rhahlios is the first known body close to the sun to sustain life. It is known for its high cultural value on solar energy, exhuberant festivals and warm climate. It also has an orbit, and a moon known as Radiance. It is one of the planets involved in the Interplanetary Allegiance. It is represented by Queen Samaira Lal.

Neo
"Main article: Neo"Neo is a much larger planet, though hardly a giant, that is noted to be a twin-planet to Genesis of Hollow Star System, which suggests that the climates, atmosphere and general landscape and oceans have a similar quality to one another. Despite the fact that they're "twins", this does not cancel out the fact that there may be other "duplicate" planets, which is an uncommon but not impossible phenomena. It has one moon, Prophet. It was the initiative party of the Interplanetary Allegiance. It is represented by Emperor Prome, however Atmosa is considered the "true" ruler.

Apoc
"Main article: Apoc"Apoc is notable for its rejection of associating with any Undane or extraterrestrial life, despite having been involved before. This also involves them being neutral and uninvolved in the Interplanetary Allegiance. However, in desperate measures, Apoc does have an emergency council. It is currently ruled by Regent King Coeus Moonstruck.

Hive
"Main article: Hive"Hive is a highly technologically advanced planet known for its inventions of android and cyborg technology. It is notable for its Hivemind, a relatively recent phenomena that connects all of the minds of its denizens. Hive, however, is neutral in the Interplanetary Allegiance, and almost connected with the planet Neo through marriage of two noble representatives. It is led by Ves Per, the Hive Queen.

Kha'on
"Main article: Kha'on"Kha'on, similar to Hive, is a planet known for its intellectual advancements, however it is not limited to technology, nor is the entire planet involved in it. It does have a very high intellectual culture. Likewise, it is neutral.

Aigokheros
"Main article: Aigokheros"Aigokheros is an asteroid belt with five planets of various climates and biomes, however retains a cultural connection to one another. It is involved in the Interplanetary Allegiance.

Orphan Moon
" Main article: Orphan Moon "A rogue planet with an odd native species that, luckily, has not collided with any planet. There is small sections of life on the planet, though how it manages to sustain life despite being a rogue planet baffles even academics. Orphan Moon does have a leader of sorts, known vaguely as Chalice.

Apotelesma
"Main article: Apotelesma"Apotelesma is known, primarily, for its Astromancers, a religious and intellectual sect that study the movement of the stars in order to understand, predict and study cosmic and personal events. However, despite their renowned wisdom, they are highly neutral and unlikely to aid unless it is an utmost emergency, generally abiding by a philosophy of allowing events to take their place. They had a rivalry with the more esoteric Eyrithians, which ended once the Eyrithians were largely wiped out, however the sole survivor remains in communication with the High Priestess.

Rabble
"Main article: Rabble"Rabble is well-known for being a small planet with odd architectural and a "hoarder" reputation. It has notorious "junk museums" that gather artefacts, useful and useless, from other planets and leave them abandoned in the landscape to evolve, over time, into a museum-like experience. It is a hub for black market trading, and legal trading, and a great source for obscure or unusual items. Rabble is neutral, and does not engage directly in the Interplanetary Allegiance.

Eyrith
"Main article: Eyrith"Eyrith is currently a dead planet, though it is notable from the atmosphere to be colourful and beautiful, and that is because several cosmic pilgrims leave flowers in memoriam for the people tragically lost. It has a singular moon, Iso, which serves as the base for the Atlas Association. Currently, the only surviving Eyrithian is High Commander Clarion Crux, but strangely they are not directly involved in the Interplanetary Allegiance.

Repent
"Main article: Repent"Repent was once known as Arex, and as the planet known for destroying Eyrith without prompt it has a poor reputation, even centuries after. After the events of the Blind War, Arex was renamed Repent in order to atone for its war crimes, and was transformed largely into an interplanetary prison system for the most dangerous planetary exiles and cross-planet criminals. In the Interplanetary Allegiance, Repent is represented by Krios Warden.

Belogvardeyski
"Main article: Belogvardeyski"Belogvardeyski is the last planet with organic life from the sun's rays, and its climate shows it. It was naturally populated by the Zwei, a draconic species that manipulate fire, but took on migrants from Genesis after the Collapse, which led to the Zweikinーa hybrid species, of sorts.

Ptolis
"Main article: Ptolis"Ptolis is a factory planet that continually creates Ptolis bots that serve as a law enforcement for the star system for off-planet crimes, or cross-planet crimes. These AIs are programmed solely to search and collect, handing to the relevant lawmaker for appropriate punishment. As such, Ptolis has a busy relationship with Repent, due to it being a prison planet, and is notoriously tense with Cthylle, Atlas and Rabble for their dubious relationships with the world of crime.
