Fiction:Multus Esse



"The Creators. They brought peace, and light, to the galaxy. Yet, like all Great beings who came before, we thought they died out, their flame for ever extinguished, leaving only us, as their "ashes". But now, they who came before walk among again! It is a miracle. They live, they prosper, alongside us. They bring a new light of hope."

- Barda Clett

The Multus Esse Alliance are a race of Precursors native to Mirus and later the Milky Way and creators of such races as the Ugandalorians and Alpha Grox, as well as having a hand in the creation of several other races.

Once, it was thought these powerful beings had gone extinct. However, now they have returned, and now work alongside their best creations to bring a new age of order and peace to the chaotic and divided Mirus, and help advance the Milky Way.

Members

 * Members

The Multus Esse had many members, all precursors, at different levels. It was thought they all died at first, but recent events may change that theory.

Formation
The Multus Esse where an alliance of 3 Advanced races that sought to bring peace, order, and stability to the universe. They orginealy where all warriors with shamanic traits, proud of their art. Yet, they found there was more to life than War. So, they joined into one race, and began to create life.

They where mysterious races, but it's known they created many creatures with are nowadays found in the Unified Federation of Glory, the Waptoria Alliance of Species, Brotherhood/Unified Nation of Spode and the Imperium of War, though it is possible there are creations in other empires as well.

War with the Zarbanian Imperium
During their time as guardians of the Mirus, they created many races, and helped to guid others to sentience. One day, their sensors detected a Life on a previously uninhabited planet. Investigating, they found it was home to 3 savage races, The Zarbanians, The Duetzalanian, and the Ci-Hunters. They, at first, did not know what to make of the races, but a warp portal opened, and a savage Empire, The Zarbanian Imperium, arrived. Intent on enslaving the galaxy, the collection of races, the 3 mentioned above, the Scimat'akar, Grux, and Sra uplifted races like the Fregg and others to fight with them. Their leaders, the Dreaded Zarbanian Dragons, crushed entire armies. In order to fight the Zarbanian Dragons better, the Locrin-Noth were forced to have the Alimbinics turn the Proto-dragoar into the savage dragon race they are today. The Dragowar were born.

The war was long, but 2 brave Cassinras, Kossi'valicar and his brother Pridar, successfully defeated them. The Zarban Drakes took their remaining forces and left, and his forces, behind to deal with the Multus Esse. The Duetzalanian, Zarbanians, Ci-Hunters and many others where reduce to tribal life. The Locrin-Noth tried to devolve the Dragowar back into their original forms, but this failed, and the Dragowar lost their intelligence as a result, becoming even more savage than they were since their evolution. Thus, as the Dragowar turned out to be too strong to control, they were quarantined away on Warminz, a planet far from EO territory, were they could not cause further harm to them or their creations. Two overseers, Nostroma and Belligerator, were placed on Zarbania and Warminz, respectively. Unbeknownst to the Ones, both would later become rogue and adopt the mindset of those they were mean to watch over.

The Portal was closed. It's unknown if the Imperium still exsists, if it died out, or if the entire empire was reduced to Tribal life.

War with the Alpha Parasite
However, soon the Grox Turned their eyes on the Mirus. They sent King Mortox I to conquer the enitre galaxy. The Multus, hearing of the Conquest of Grox, swarming from the Andromeda, soon found 2 groups of synthetics, The Alpha Grox and the Bachyeon. They where weakened and dieing from lack of planets and resources, and so where taken by the ones and strengthened. When the Grox themselves invaded, the EO and the Alpha worked together to fight them back, and seemed victorious.

Little they did know their "victory" was mostly because the Grox were unwilling to fight their Alpha Cousins. The day came when the Grox framed Kasshrin'rishas for the crime of treason, and he was executed before the council of elders could look into the case.

The Alpha leader, enraged, became rampant, and ordered the Alpha to purge all Enlightened Ones and their creations. The Bachyeons joined them, and they began assimilating the Creations, turning them into emotionless monsters. The Meeno, having regained strength, joined, and, unlike the Bachyeon, assimilated the Multus Esse to act as elite commanders, but saved them for millennia.

Finally, the Multus hide their races inside vast ships, and put them in a pocket dimension. They then activated a sonic pulse, that managed to severely injure all the synthetics in the galaxy. The Grox and Bachyeon retreated into other places, to recover, and before this, Kossi' managed to injure The Alpha Leader, who implanted his mind into a vast Super-computer/War-ship.

The Enlightened Ones disappeared, and the AI's of their creation resumed monitoring their creations and races they had guided. They re-seeded the Ugandalorians and the like, and Observers where put on the planets, to monitor the races and see how they would turn out.

Resurgences
"Not all precursors are cursed for death."

- Koss'Valicar

The Enlightened Ones, in a shocking turn of events, turned out to be alive. It was revealed they hide in massive motherships, and hide in on the planets of their creations, and Zarbania. They waited in pods for millions of years, and, when the Dead Watchers accidently activated their ships, they where re-born. The Motherships converged on Ugandalore, and, although there where intentionally misunderstandings, managed to get along with their creations.

They helped to drive the Alpha off Ugandalore, and then aided in stopping the relentless assaults of the Kashriinox, Bachyeons and Grox on the worlds of their creators. Eventually, they defeated the leaders of the Proditkar Movement, and then attacked and purged the Kashriinox Base, killing Kashii'Rishas for good. After this, they united most of their creations in the Unified Alliance of Enlightenment.

While important members, they realize, that, being Precursors, they are on burrowed time, and, as such, let their creations lead themselves, more then happy to see how far they have come.

Creations
These creations are used to oversee their biologic, technologic, and other needs. They where very rarely used, as they liked to do things themselves. They became more useful near the end of Enlightened Ones' Existence.

The Observers

 * Task - Monitor creations and/or life forms of interest.
 * Notable facts - The Federation's Aurolia Units are based off them, though at a vastly inferior scale.

The Observers are the smartest of their creations. used to monitor their creations, 3 important ones include 216 Nestroma, 1296 Trencormi and 60466176 Oecolojiya, of Zarbania, Ugandalore and Raptoranea respectively. They appear as gaint brain-like super computers, with techno-organic features. Various members of the race also where seen on installations through the Enlightened Ones' territories in the Milky Way and Mirus.

Now that the Enlightened Ones have returned, the Observers now serve on Project:Aurora, which acts as a defense system for the Unified Alliance of Enlightenment. The group is constantly informed of incoming attacks and possible invasions, and communicate with a central Observer (name unknown), and coordinate with the Alliance Military Fleet for invasion protocol.

The Observers and their respective races are as follows.

Observers

 * 216 Nostroma - Zarbania
 * 1296 Trencormi - Ugandalore
 * 7776 Prismoin - Maldwis
 * 46656 Gorrosive - Blarene
 * 279936 Tentative - Gaulsisrac
 * 1679616 Servo - Palchev 5
 * 10077696 Venator - Cradosa
 * 60466176 Oecolojiya - Viel
 * 362797056 Belligerator - Warminz

Society
The Multus Esse originally began as a violent alliance of races, using their military prowess to destroy their enemies where ever they appeared. However, the members soon realized that a change was needed. They ordered their military to take courses in diplomacy, and open their minds more. With this, they became "enlightened". However, unlike others, they did not cling to the illusion that they where in control. They actually encouraged their creations to seek their own path, only guiding them, but not fully protecting them unless needed. The Multus where the most emotional of the Precursors and other races that came before, and many saw them as "illogical".

They relied more on diplomatic negations and working with others over force.

The Multus built vast Observers, large Bio-Mechanical brain-like creatures to act in their name. They did not want to manage, oversee, and run the daily tasks of guiding younger races. They wanted to build, create, and study everything around them, not manage, dictate, and set policy. In fact, this idea of a sort "no government" unless in difficult times was based onto their creations, the Ugandalorians.

The EO, while they distrusted the use of military force, where proud warriors when need be, and could devastate most enemies in the blink of an eye.

Technology
The Multus where extremely advanced, armed with faster then light travel, and machines that could slowly alter a being's perception, so to make it their own. Their Military was very advanced, often using Bioweapons, Battle Droids and Machines to agument their forces. It is noted their weapons were organic, and that they linked up with the EO's nerve system if wielded by them. Their organic technology formed the basis of the technology of WAOS, who improved it until they could make sentient spaceships, a thing even the EO's deemed impossible.

Locrin'Noth could control Light and Dark matter, and all members could create similar matter from nothing.

The Celestial Archives
The Celestial Archives, including Matrukoris' archives sector, held the entire knowledge of the Multus across their territory, detailing their history, technological advances, and other key events and events that may prove useful later.

The Multus guarded these archives jealously, as they held deep reference for the past and all it held.

The archives are currently being used by the Alliance to further their scientific knowledge and their technology.

Abilities
The EO possess the ability to become Ascended, and to disable any of their creations' essences abilities, as well as most modern races today. Only God races, some ascended, and other Precursor and Ultraterrastrial races have the power to resist this.

All members, despite their frail looks at times, are incredibly strong, and could break must races in a direct confrontation with no effort.

All had essence abilities, though few could access Ugandal Elemental Energy, these exceptions include Locrin-Ti, A Locrin-Noth, and Kossi'Valciar, a Chassin'ra.

Most Locrin'noth had powers over Light and Dark matter, non-elemental versions of Light/Dark Elemental energy.

All members can appear invisible at will, and the most powerful of their number could freeze temporal space.

Military
The Multus Esse where indeed a race of scientist and uplifters, though based on both modern interactions, and evidence within the Celestial Achieves, the Multus where more like a force of nature when released upon their enemies, quickly destroying them, and attempting to re-educate the population under their ideals.

Their military force struck like a hammer, first launching air strikes, orbital bombardments and the like, then sending in heavy vehicles, before infantry crushed any remaining resistance fighters.

All Multus have a special suit inter-connected to their body, which they could summon at will, and keep active through concentration. These suits made use of a powerful Reflex Arm canon, which fired plasma and missiles at targets, though others could be upgraded to fire other weapons.

Pridar'Valicar's suit, for example, was upgraded to have a more crab-like shape, with pincer-like claws, 4 spiked limbs, and a canon placed around the "mouth".

The military was, and is still, not allowed to use full force on a less advanced race unless permitted. Most commanders preferred peace and civilized discussions over war.

Caste System
The castes, where the predestined path a Multus had in their life. In order to find their "Mark" or "mask", the Multus had to go upon a spiritual and psychical journey to find themselves and their path. One could or could not repeat their parents' "mark", depending on their destiny.

Kossi'Valicar= "I fight for the greatest thing on can fight for. I fight for freedom."

Kossi'Valicar is the Lord-Supreme of the Remnant's military, de-facto leader of the Multus Esse as of now, and their strongest warrior to exist. Born n a time of great turmoil, Kossi was among many of the strongest warriors recruited and trained by the Multus to protect their creations, scientists, and colonists across the universe. Kossi quickly worked his way up through the military, alongside his brother, Pridar'Valicar.
 * Name - Kossi'Valicar
 * Age - 17,500
 * Type - Warrior
 * Status - Active
 * Species - Chassin'ra

Kossi would lead the Multus' military hand throughout the universe, fighting against such foes as the Zarbanian Imperium, the Alpha/Meeno Grox, and finally, against his own brother, Pridar.

However, at the end of the Grox-Multus War, Kossi and the survivors disappeared, believed by many to have gone extinct. However, like many of the Multus, he has reappeared in modern times, and continues to help the creations of his kind battle against the darkest powers.

Kossi is a wise, honored being, even among his own kind. Held with god-like respect by his creations, Kossi is still a humble, caring being, who wishes to end the conflict in the world, and bring about peace.

Locrin'Ti=

General Ali-Nix=

A-Ros= "There is still much we need to do."

A-ros is political leader of the Locrin'noth within the Multus Esse, and one of Kossi'Valicar's advisors. A former soldier, A-ros became a scientist, creating and devising new lifeforms and other creations for Multus' goal of populating the galaxy. A-ros was among the Multus who fled during Project:Red Star, and hid away on the Waptoria home world. After the signal was launched, A-ros lead his people to drive away the Alpha and make contact with the creations.
 * Name - A-ros
 * Age - Unknown
 * Type - Scientist
 * Status - Active
 * Species - Locrin'noth

After the Kasshriinox, a group of Multus Esse turned Grox servants, where defeated, A-ros became one of the remaining political leaders of the remaining Multus Esse.

A-ros is a religious, political-minded being. His goals, working with Kossi, are to advance the race through peaceful means, how to avoid wars and the like. Still, when problems hit the Alliance, A-ros uses his political skill to help guide it economically and politically, and is one of the most intelligent of the Multus Esse.

Lord Charro'Kun= "From the shadows comes pain."

Charro'kun is a Chassin'ra Lord of the Enlightened Ones, and one of it's highest ranking military leaders. While much of his past is shrouded in mystery, the Celestial Archives tell that his family was dishonored somehow, and he took the title of Toa'cami'ta, used by warriors seeking to regain their honor. Charro'kun seeks to reclaim his family's honor, and at the same achieve fame among his people as a hero.
 * Name - Charro'kun
 * Age - 87,000
 * Type - Warrior
 * Status - Active
 * Species - Chassin'ra

As Toa'Cmai'ta, Charro'kun uses the original blade used by the others that came before him. The weapons is said to burn hotter then the hottest suns, and is used to channel his powers. He does no use a standard arm canon, like many of his brethren, but instead prefers to get up close and personal.

Charro'kun is proud, posh, and a military-man by nature, but follows Kossi's orders closely, despite being older and more experienced. Charro'kun generally doesn't like to be around primitives, but will not insult them or the like.
