GAME SETTING - THE IBERE

THE IBERE
Here. Here. They are coming.

The Ibere: An Overview.
The Ibere were a humaniod people who used to live in Imo Sector of the Ajija Galaxy. Most of what the known galaxies currently believe about the Ibere are myths and legends. A millennium ago, the Ibere mysteriously (mostly) vanished, and ever since, the Imo Sector, once open to all kinds of trade and tourism, has been completely closed off to all travelers. Where once the Imo Sector sat, now there is a vast area of blackness. Any attempt to enter that sector will find the vessel on the opposite side, hundreds of lightyears away. While some travelers attempt to take advantage of this mystery to save on travel time, most avoid it at all costs because of the voluminous, portentous traveler’s tales about this pitch black void. Some tales speak of ghost ships and inescapable death.

The only known surviving group of Ibere people is a faction of the Owmi Sect. They were lucky enough to be outside the Imo Sector when it was mysteriously closed off. Since that time, they have wandered the known galaxies looking for other remnants of their people.

But the Mentara Galaxy Cluster's awareness of the Owmi is splotchy at best - the Owmi do not participating in any political organization outside of their own people, that, plus the current fractured nature of the political entities of the Cluster, means that most of the Galaxies are not even aware the Owmi still exist.

The Ibere were once a thriving civilization that worshipped 4 beings known as Orakallas. The Ibere believed that the Orakalla protected them and gave them divine assistance. At the height of their civilization, they were known for being a peaceful people, for being remarkable craftsmen and engineers, and for having a glowing gem in the center of their chests. Despite their prosperity, there are no known wars with other civilizations. A common myth was that the Ibere were a hive mind with the Orakalla at the center, but this is a misunderstanding of the Orakallas and Ibere abilities.


Orakalla Sects.
The Ibere people were divided into 4 sects, each worshipping a different Orakalla. The four sects are:


Sect:
The Owmi
This Ibere sect follows the Owm Orakalla. Presently they are the only known Ibere population, wandering across the known galaxies in a large flotilla of spaceships. More information about the Owmi can be found HERE.

Owm gara are colored blue and green.




Sect:
The Afee
This was the Ibere sect that followed Afe Orakalla. Their fate is currently unknown. However, the Owmi have recently made contact with four Afee when the Owmi and the characters stumbled across four stasis pods on the planet Baj E'oku Prim. These four Afee are suffering from stasis sickness which means their memories spotchy. If your character asks the right questions to the right Owmi, they might learn some theories about the Afee.

Afe gara are colored white, clear, or gray. The Owmi think that possessors of Afe gara are clever, but probably untrustworthy and underhanded.




Sect:
The Leayi
This was the Ibere sect that followed Lea Orakalla. Their fate is unknown. But if your character asks the right questiosn to the right Owmi, they might learn some theories.

Lea gara are colored purple, brown, and black. The Owmi think that possessors of Lea gara are hardworking but perhaps not too bright.




Sect:
The Viire
This was the Ibere sect that followed Vii Orakalla. Their fate is unknown. But if your character asks the right questiosn to the right Owmi, they might learn some theories.

Vir gara are colored red, orange, and yellow. The Owmi think that possessors of Vii gara are passionate but hot tempered and maybe irrational.




... We have trained them to think of the Future as a promised land which favored heroes attain ...
