Fiction:Polar Crystal Alliance

"United, we stand!"

- King Telarian

The Polar Crystal Alliance is an alliance of several major empires across the, originally created as the galaxy's main force against the during the. The alliance was recently recreated as an attempt to create an united galactic government in the galaxy.

First Borealis Galactic War
The Polar Crystal Alliance was created and founded by the as the Arm of Knowledge's main front against the growing threat of the Wranploer Legion. By the time, the members of the alliance were the Imperium, the Republic of Heleanor, the Samilinus Empire, the Minga Republic, the Gooplet Technocracy and the mysterious Lanatiz.

The alliance fought against billions of thieves, bounty hunters and pirates, against the formidable, the , the and the. After many years of bloody conflicts, the Alliance invaded the Vijaha System and destroyed the Legion's capital, winning the war.

With the Legion defeated, the alliance lost its meaning, and eventually it was dissolved, with the members going on with their lives.

Second Borealis Galactic War
The Alliance was successfully recreated during the Wrath of Gods of the by the Zoles Imperium, the  and the. Under the guidance of, the Alliance gathered members across the galaxy with the objective of fighting the face-to-face. Gathering a large number of members, the Alliance eventually pushed into the Inner Core in a battle known as the Symphony of Flesh and Steel, where the galactic fleet successfully killed and, ending the Borealis Grox threat once and for all.

Following this, the galaxy was dominated by the after it used time travel to bring the old Wranploer Legion to the modern era. The combined power of both led to the defeat of the leaders of the Alliance, causing almost all of it members to fall into disarray. The Alliance would be effectively destroyed by the time the Consortium successfully destroyed Zargoth. However, thanks to using time travel himself, the Alliance's defeat never happened, and instead the Consortium fell to the power of the Polar Crystal fleets, along with its allies.

Ice Age
After Zargoth was defeated and the war was over, the was declared. The first action of the Alliance was to move its capital from the Zoles homeworld of Zoleia to the Kormacvar space station of Hyperborea, turning it into the overall capital of the galaxy. Semirian, Xeron and Valzaria were chosen to be the Councillors, replacing King Rebaris and Chief Major Xerkea, and Arkarixus was made the Warmaster of the Alliance. The Council then created the Penumbra Unit, a special operations faction under their direct control to serve as an extension of their will. The Alliance would then start planning "re-educating" the Arm of Wildness, which was still under control of the War Economy.

The first three years of the Ice Age proved themselves prosperous for the Alliance until the emergence of, who kidnapped Councillor Semirian and destroyed a Kormacvar artifact. After he was placed under arrest, the Alliance was forced to join forces with him to deal with the Mass Armageddon, which brought catastrophe to the Alliance again. The also appeared to the Alliance, making itself look like a victim for them after a failed kidnapping attempt of the Penumbran  which they claimed to have been a pirate invasion. The Alliance eventually forgave the Rovegar and allowed them to spread their influence through PCA space. The arrival of the caught the Alliance by surprise, as they desired war with the Alliance for no specific reasons.

Internal tensions caused by UNO launching an attack on the without the rest of the Alliance's approval caused the Ottzelloans to temporarily lose their Councillor status, which was given back after the Imalmah backed away from their threats of war. After this event, the and the  were promoted to councillor empires in an attempt to make the risk of internal fighting lower. UNO would later act against the Alliance again when they reformed into the, and were completely removed from the Alliance. At this time, the Alliance obtained a new member in the Caxildiz Empire thanks to the Niaka Special Forces' efforts, and was briefly attacked by, which resulted in the deaths of many soldiers and Kicathian Agents.

Government
The Polar Crystal Alliance is ruled by the Crystal Council, a small council composed by chosen representatives of the three "Councillor" empires, plus any other representative of another species who manages to obtain Councillor status. The alliance forbids the empire's actual head-of-state(s) to be a councillor, and a representative must be chosen instead. The Councillors have the right to intervene in the members' actions, including the actions of the Councillor empires, however they can only do it if the majority of the Council members agrees with it. The current headquarters of the Council is the Kormacvar space station of Hyperborea.

The current councillors are:

Councillor Semirian=

"The Alliance will not fall again. Not on my watch."


 * Name - Semirian
 * Representing -

Semirian is a former minister of the Zoles Imperium, appointed by King Rebaris to represent the Imperium as its councillor. Semirian has extensive knowledge of the previous Polar Crystal Alliance and as such, has studied its flaws so she may not repeat them. She also has a strong sense of discipline, and a very stoic attitude.

Councillor Xeron=

"We got half of a galaxy to fix still. We better start working."


 * Name - Xeron
 * Representing -

Xeron is a former Chief Minor of the Niaka Special Forces, appointed by Chief Major Xerkea to represent the Niaka as its councillor. Gruffy and warmongering, Xeron won't hesitate to vote for open war against an enemy nation. However, he is far from stupid, being a veteran of many battles against the Old Niaka Order and the Wranploer, and one of Xerkea's most trusted men.

Councillor Vhezari=

"I will fix my brother's stupid mistakes."


 * Name - Rylarien Vhezari
 * Representing - Seagon Empire

Rylarien Vhezari is the councillor representing the Seagon Empire. Despite being the sister of the infamous tyrant Emperor Vhezari, she had no involvement on his decisions and was also opposite to his power-hungry attitude. Rylarien wishes to make the Seagon be been without distrust, this being rather hard considering her empire's actions in the Second Borealis War and her refusal of explaining the Seagon government in details. However, she has made progress with important members like the Niaka Special Forces, planning partnerships against their common enemy, the Old Niaka Order.

Councillor Kithworto=

"If you wish to lead your galaxy, you must first leave your throne."


 * Name - Kithworto Aknatazán
 * Representing -

Kithworto Aknatazán is the councillor representing the Kicathian Remnant. Kithworto, like Xeron is a veteran of numerous wars, and is the most battle-hardened. Kithworto's reputation as a Kicathian with an incredulously long past has given him immensely valuable experience in leading and making calculated decisions as a councillor, however his involvement in wars within other galaxies has meant an empty seat in Hyperborea. It is probable to say that, given his political position and his notoriety as a powerful warrior, Kithworto's influence will drive enemies of Hyperborea to fear the Polar Crystal Alliance with great reason.



The diplomats of non-councillor empires are:

Embrak Makomor=

"The tribe wishes for nothing but peace and equality. Unfortunately, not all of Hyperborea's inhabitants have pure auras."


 * Name - Embrak Makomor
 * Representing - Adrahira Tribe

Embrak Makomor is the diplomat representing the Adrahira Tribe.

While the Council approves of his efforts, the Minga are still extremely intolerant, even more with Arkarixus' presence in the Alliance.

 * Name - Judren Darvinus
 * Representing - Minga Theocracy

Judren Darvinus is the diplomat representing the Minga Theocracy. A well-known priest and former commander of various holy wars, Judren was chosen to represent his empire's faith in the Alliance. Judren is disliked among the diplomats for his religious intolerance and stubborn behavior. He believes the fact Arkarixus is alive is "proof" that his religion is real and everyone not following it as a heretic. He remains adamant against peace with the Adrahira, much to the Council's chagrin, who are sided with the Tribe.

"I was chosen by the Council of Lances for diplomacy. I am honoured by this opportunity."


 * Name - Gavikrag Cuchog
 * Representing - Ransio Empire

Gavikrag Cuchog is the diplomat representing the Ransio Empire.

Straktr Klrar=

"We all wish for the well-being of the land-dwellers of the galaxy."

 * Representing - Krinkut Union

 * Name - Nayanur Nens
 * Representing -

Nayanur Nens is the diplomat representing the Rovegar Matriarchy. A close agent of Matriarch Vileraz IV, she was pointed to be the empire's diplomat in the Alliance so that the Matriarch could always have an eye inside the Alliance's decisions. Nayanur herself is disgruntled by having to work with "primitive" races and has to keep a false personality to fit with the other diplomats. She awaits for the day she can finally drop this false image, which will be the day the Rovegar will rule the Alliance.



Economy
The Polar Crystal Alliance uses the Borealis Credit as its main currency. As there are no native post-scarcity empires in Borealis (save for the Kicathian Remnant, although they use an external economy system), the Alliance is mainly capitalistic in nature. Trading with the Alliance allows other empires to safely explore Borealis' economy without being harmed by the influence of space pirates such as the Wranploer Remnants. Furthermore, members of the Alliance are forbidden to have trade deals with pirate-aligned empires as it's considered harmful for the Alliance's own economy.

Military
The Polar Crystal Alliance possesses an impressive military composed of a combination of soldiers and spaceships from every one of its members. Combining the powers of the most advanced nations such as the Zoles, UNO and the Kicath, plus all of its othe members, the Alliance has proven capable of standing up against extremely dangeorus enemies, from the Borealis Consortium Network to the Borealis Grox themselves. The galaxy's physically strong inhabitants makes their foot soldiers very capable at war and their sheer diversity makes fighting against the Alliance very difficult. Being a neutral government, the Alliance does not wish to conquer other territories for the sake of war, and concentrates its military in dealing with its Most Wanted List.

Religion
The Polar Crystal Alliance is considered neutral regarding religion and allows its members to individually worship whichever deities they wish as long as it does not disrupt the Alliance's internal affairs. Worship of the has become the most common religion in the Alliance following the events of the war, while worshipping of the Kormacvar as gods has declined with the exception of the Minga Theocracy, which still attempts to convert other empires into its fate system. Since the Kicath's ascension to councilhood, their own religion has caught the eyes of the other members, though aliens worshipping Kicath deities is rare due to the Kicath's generally hostile view toward outsiders. Worshipping of has died out following the destruction of the, and worshipping of the  or any demonic entities is strictly forbidden. Worshippers of demons in the Alliance are considered war criminals and are sentenced to immediate death, in an attempt to stop all possible chances of a new cult like the rising to power.

Penumbra Unit
The Penumbra Unit is a special force of very carefully chosen individuals, picked by the Polar Crystal Council to serve as their personal enforces. The Penumbra Unit is the most elite of the elite, and have the privileges of being above the law of all member empires of the Alliance. The Unit answers only to the Council and to the Warmaster.
