The Setting

After a long voyage through space, a diaspora of refugees entered a lone system, naming it Jumuah and settling on a barren asteroid. Converting their armada of ships into a city on its surface and burrowed into the rock, these refugees created Ship City.

Three distinct groups took charge of this colony: the Machinists build ships and keep the vast bowels of the asteroid in shape, the Gardeners grow food and rejuvenate the atmosphere, and the Navigators plan expeditions into the cold space in search of resources.

The first explorers soon found abandoned ruins on far-flung moons. Strange artifacts told tales of a long-lost previous civilization. Unfortunately, not only treasures were found – the ruins were covered in ice-like protrusions and vines. The first explorers were soon afflicted by a strange plague, the Blight, twisting their minds and bodies in bizarre ways.

The Jumuah system was a dead end, but soon the algebraist of the Navigators Guild found hidden routes through space, making it possible to travel to nearby star systems. New ruins were found, as perilous as in the Jumuah system but at least more resources could be harvested.
