This is where your story begins...

Iclantia, a once-thriving civilization, was unable to prevent the catastrophic event that ultimately wiped out their society. Historians have revealed that in a desperate attempt to save their heritage, the Iclantians created Comets - time capsules made of rock and ice infused with advanced technology - and launched them into space. These pods contain the remnants of the Iclantians' powerful technology, including toys, art, weapons, and historical documents.

Players enter the Rimshot system, home to various alien species who have prospered since discovering the comets.

As the protagonist of your own story, Crypterion places you in the game as the main character, allowing you to customize more than just your hair and eye color. Your likes, dislikes, and any traumatic experiences that have shaped who you are today will be recognized by NPCs, who will respond accordingly. Similar to the character creation system in Conqueror A.D. 1086, we take a streamlined approach and ask a few questions. Crypterion also tracks any battle scars or physical changes to your appearance.
