Thaeta is one of many human colonies in the Milky Way Galaxy that was founded before the Great War, a catastrophe that obliterated Earth’s population. Now without the support of their Earthling ancestors and far separated from any sister colonies, Thaeta persists in self-sufficient isolation. Over generations, its small settlements have developed a collection of new and thriving city-states with their own politics, technology, and culture. With their limited resources, Thaetans have been able not only to create a variety of technologies that improve their lives and bodies, but also to discover the power of a strange force that some have begun to call Magic.
In Thaeta’s modern day, thirteen cities and towns waver under the rule of one. The Nexus has risen up as the self-proclaimed capital of Thaeta and its governing forces, dubbed the Authority, are present in every civilized corner of the world. With this power, the Nexus’s leaders have imposed upon the people a goal of Assimilation: the replacement of living limbs and organs with synthetic parts. Complete assimilation would mean the end of Organicism, or the presence of organic intelligence on Thaeta.
Naturally, there has emerged some resistance to this goal.
Thaeta is a forum-based role-playing game focused on creative collaborative writing and set in a unique science fiction universe. Players can write alone or in groups to explore the archipelago settled over a hundred years ago by a human colony, earn experience points, level up, and gain rewards for participating in large-scale plots and quests.
