Cord Imperium

The aftermath of the Impact has left the diaspora of humanity at the mercy of the supernatural beings called Cultivators. The galaxy and all of the Known Universe has been annexed as a new fief of the Vermillion Empire, ruled under the iron fist of Emperor Zhang.

Dene, a former hit-man cum transporter, finds himself as a bot having the identity of Von Baran in a world that has stretched far into the future. A world where humanity as a whole is in the midst of dark undercurrents of change …

A clandestine power that has hidden itself for time-immemorial has finally risen from itself from repose: The Cord.  A power potent enough to threaten cultivators and bring chaos into the natural order of the universe. Hidden orders, organizations, faiths, and cultivators all covet the power of the Cord and weave from it a future that skews the universe in their favor.
