Staring fictions are not allowed to be tier 1. You can make that page, but it is automatically non-canon and cannot interact with the rest of the universe.

Your starting fiction should be tier 3-5, ideally on the lower end of that spectrum. This means it should have no more than thousands of planets and should not be on a scale large enough to allow it to invade every part of a galaxy at once.

If you want, you can have two versions of the immaculate, your vision, which is non-canon, and the canon version, which follows the rules, or you can come up with a different idea for your starting fiction.

I also doubt that the idea of balls of energy will be well-received. Though it is not likely to be strictly against the rules, it may not be very popular. I suggest that, if you want to go with the idea of an empire that thinks itself the "purest" and wants to destroy all else, that you select some other feature about them. For example, they may be snobbish because they are autotrophs and believe that all heterotrophes are monsters for having to consume life.

Do you remember what I said about the Katar Sector? By starting there, you can have your own empire with several neighbors to interact with, as well as a story to get into right away, and, if you choose to make them former Tyranny slaves, (at least part of) a back story all laid out.

I'd be willing to help you come up with ideas if you wanted. Come to IRC again, and keep trying till you find me on. (I'd either be going by Aeon or Aeo, or possibly Aeoneonatrix.)

In regard to your captain, you will not be well received in stating that he cannot be killed. You should create new immortal beings sparingly, unless you can come up with good and original ideas for them. If you must create a good immortal, I suggest the League of Patrons and for an evil one, I suggest you have him be a former member. Even then, these beings are not truly immortal, they just don't die naturally.

The Aterna realm is also something I suggest throwing out. If you want, you could make that the name of your empire's home/capitol planet.

I am going to ask again, have you read the Fiction Guidelines? They are required reading if you want to have a fiction here. They explain the rules more clearly than I have here.
