Welcome to Xenoglass
the space opera setting for the Alabaster RPGS
“Slip in. Pocket some Glass. Don’t get killed.”
“Amen to that, princess,” Jarred agreed.
“Don’t call me princes- uurgh.” Rainen trailed off into a growl. That battle was lost and she knew it.
“All right kids, knock it off. Clock’s tight on this.” Bhushan intoned, instantly stilling his subordinates. He looked down at the stony asteroid turning below them. Beneath its unassuming exterior was – hopefully – an ancient harbor, a space dock built by the lost T’ien Lung civilization. A treasure trove of Glass and a serious feather in their caps, if their preparations paid off. “Get your game faces on.”
Humanity has spread across the stars but still battles with its own worst nature. From humble beginnings beneath a single yellow sun, Humanity has reached out to settle over 200 stars, a region of space now known as the Nine Reaches. More than half of these worlds belong to one of a trio of nations which rose to power following the collapse of the Ascendancy, a cabal of human/AI hybrid ‘Liches’ who overran and enslaved mankind for almost two decades following their digital apotheosis.
