The Story of the Peoples of Astronix

The world of the Astronix universe is reminiscent of the medieval period on Earth. Fighting is held using cold weapons and magic. Gunpowder has already been invented by Apes but is not widely used yet. Magic and sorcery are widespread, from a variety of spells to control of demons and spirits. The inhabitants of Astronix travel between planets using spells and portals created by the pre-Great War human race. The most valuable resource of the universe is the crystals needed for magical rites and traveling through portals. They are the sources of magical energy and magic is impossible without them. These are the various creatures and people who inhabit the planets of Astronix

ATLANTS

The Atlantean race currently dominates Astronix through magic and control over crystal mining. They are absolutely confident in their strength and superiority. The Atlanteans consider themselves descendants of the gods and act accordingly. Arrogance, individualism, and condescending benevolence towards representatives of other species are the traits of the Atlanteans.

FORTS

One-eyed dwarfs of small stature with yellow skin. The only goal of these creatures is to make money. Caravans of their merchants can be found everywhere from Atlantis to the Underworld. They are absolute individualists and self centered creatures. The Forts love to eat and are willing to do anything for money and pleasure. The home planet of the Forts is one big manufacture of every good imaginable. Numerous factories and plants have worsened the ecology of the planet so much that an ice age began. The Forts place a high value on luxuries, and their houses and villas are full of golden furniture and other ostentatious opulence. At the same time, they do not think about the common good at all. Therefore their cities look very dirty and unkempt.

APES

Ape-like creatures that live on the planet Tozaria. They live by agriculture and hunting. Science at the level of the 17th century. Besides writing and agriculture, there are also firearms, steam engines, and air balloons. They live in settlements and cities reminiscent of wooden cabins from the times of the Wild West. Ape cities are located on the surface of Tozaria, as well as on trees and lakes. By nature, for the most part, they are proud and warlike creatures, quite conflicting and vengeful. They perceive nature as a single sacred organism, which they are a part of. They hate demons, considering them perverted creatures that have no place in ordinary nature and life.

KSETHES

A race of natural-born warriors, the best fighters of Astronix. They are two meters tall and have dirty green skin, their faces are more like vicious animal muzzles, and their whole appearance expresses ferocity. Ksethes are not very smart but they are very strong and physically hardy, they are excellent at using melee weapons. The only worthy occupation of the Ksethes is war and all that is connected with war. Their weapon technology is mostly limited to melee weapons.

HUMANS

Once one of the greatest civilizations of Astronix with advanced technology, magic and infrastructure. But after a suicidal attempt to capture the rest of the planets were enslaved by other races, and their home planet Gera was destroyed and turned into ruins. Currently, people are dragging out a miserable existence, living, for the most part, in dilapidated huts and barracks. According to the terms of surrender after the war, they had to serve as slaves to the Atlanteans, Forts, and Apes for a thousand years fulfilling their every whim. But when this period expired, the higher races decided to artificially prolong the curse. After a while, people had enough — the Maven — those who were not subject to the curse and decided to free their brethren from it.
