The Tel'Dabe Humans?!?

Due to the recent campainage that is happening... I have decided to bring out a little information of what has happened in the Tel'Dabe galaxy.

Here is a brief history that explains the formation of the Empire of Order, a little of it's organization, and the events that lead up to the Civil War.

The Tel’Dabe humans have been living on the planet Tel’Terra since before the beginning of their recorded history. The planet has been through numerous wars and at the end of the final world war, the remaining leaders came together and created a world government that would unite the people under one supreme ruler. Thus the Empire of Order was formed.


The Empire is ruled by the Emperor...duh. Every planet is ruled by a Lord who is in charge of the planet's populace and production capabilities. Every system of planets is ruled by a Count and every sector of systems is ruled by a Duke. These rulers make up the Lord's council. The council is overseen by the Grand Duke who reports directly to the Emperor on the state of the Empire. The Order's military is directed by the Lord Marshal who reports only to the Emperor.


In order to continue to have an everlasting peace the Order censored all forms of media and took over the duty of teaching its citizens. By putting down minor rebellions and condemning ideas that were too free thinking, the Order succeeded in maintaining peace for over thousands of years. However certain people in high places disagreed with the Order and they formulated a plan where they would secretly teach their children to think for themselves and to live double lives: one that served the Order and the other that sought to undermine it.

After three thousand years of rule with only one single devastating rebellion, the Empire of Order’s newly crowned Emperor, Setis Asheron who was backed by Atrissia, decreed that all impure Tel’Dabe humans were to report to special work camps where they could eventually be made whole again. By impure, the Emperor meant all Tel’Dabe humans who had cybernetic implants or had latent willpower abilities. This also sadly included people who were handicapped or mentally disabled. Since there were few objections in the Lord's council, the Emperor decided to go ahead with his plan. He ordered Lord Marshal Ivente Helos to pick his best general to carry out the plans.


The Emperor had given the Lord Marshal, a chief member of the "12", the mysterious organization that was planning the downfall of the Empire, a great oppurtunity to begin open rebellion. Ivente Helos gave his most trusted General and fellow "12" member, the charasmatic Kel Arkan the assignment of carrying out the Emperor's exact orders. However, when General Kel Arkan learned of the true reason for the camps, he refused to follow the order and told the Emperor himself to, basically, screw off. Shortly afterwards Emperor Asheron had Arkan’s entire family killed as to teach him a lesson. All this did was fuel the fire that would become the Tel’Dabe Civil War.

General Kel Arkan is the most respected leader in the military next to the Lord Marshal himself. When he heard news of his family's death, Arkan gathered his loyal men and as many of the "impure" humans as he could and declared war on the Empire. The formation of the Arkan Federation marked the beginning of the war to free the people of the Tel'Dabe galaxy from the evil that was the Empire of Order.

This looks like a wonderful mix of all my story elements...

...eeeeeexcellent.

Can't wait to jump in this campaign!

And also, your choice of words (like '..to, basically, screw off...') made my boring computer class much more humorous.
