Astral Cataclysm

A massive cosmic anomaly of unknown origin is ripping its way through the Galaxy. Composed of exotic matter this destructive force has unpredictable interactions with the ordinary matter that makes up our galaxy. Collisions with the cosmic anomaly have caused stars to have massive planet sterilizing solar flares, collapse into black holes, or go supernova.

In the wake of the cosmic anomaly explorers have been able to harvest negative-mass exotic matter. These energy dense substances have led to scientific breakthroughs radically advancing technology beyond its prior limitations. Exotic weapon systems, ballistic reflecting armor, and Wormhole space travel are just a few of the latest inventions that are poised to reshape the stars.
