United Parallel Worlds
The United Parallel Worlds (UPW) is a meta-aware faction originating from the Galaxy Angel canon. It is a third-party that relative to the Transpace Guard and Time-Space Adminstration Bureau. The setup of this faction is similar to the United Nations, for a few reasons.
Assets
The UPW revoles around the use of chrono string-based technologies, most prominently seen in the form of the Chrono String Engine. Each chrono string is believed to be a fragment of energy from the creation of the universe and has tremendous power, but low probability of obtaining that power. As a result, these Chrono Strings are gathered in large amounts to obtain any reasonable measure of power generations. The HALO system is a somewhat uncommon military-use system that allows to obtain more power out of chrono strings via the probability constant. However, the system functions emphatically with regards to the user. AI-controlled versions of these are compatible with more people but not as powerful.
This faction uses chrono space to facilitate faster-than-light travel. Parallel worlds inside their home canon have a central hub called ABSOLUTE , where gate keepers control the numerous chrono gates that connect to various universes. It is possible to ignore the centralized travel method via Infinite Corridor, but the UPW has locked this down in order to monitor incoming and outgoing meta-traffic.
UPW-aligned planets inside their home canon each have a chrono gate near their home world.
The UPW maintains a defensive stance across the meta, with few ship patrols. Their space assets are centered around planets in general.
Faction Disposition
The UPW functions much like the real-world United Nations, but they emphasize on non-involvement and disaster relief and recovery operations. Only in the event that multiple worlds or canons may be affected that the UPW shifts to an active role.
The UPW draws its forces from it's member worlds and planets, with the Transbaal Empire having majority.
The major planets that compose the UPW enjoy a standard of living comparable to, or even greater than the central planets of the TSAB.
A great number of planets in parallel worlds in the UPW's canon cluster are mostly dead worlds or uninhabited due to the effects of a chrono quake in the past.
Operation
This faction is mostly ship-based and fleet based. Most planet-side operations are left up to local forces, except in the case of major worlds. You are more likely to see ship and fighter deployments more than ground troops.
Playing as the UPW
Races available under the UPW are Humans, Faeries and Valfask. Uncommon races are nanomachine lifeforms (humanoid).
Humans have potential for telepathy and magic.
Faeries are smaller than humans and originate from the planet Sprite.
Valfask resemble pale, slightly blue-toned humans, but their bodies are covered in purple veins. They are capable of direct interface with machines and remote control with a certain microchip receiver. Powerful Valfask commanders are known to be able to control thousands of warships simultaneously. They naturally posses the potential of several centuries' worth of lifespan.
Transbaal Ships of the Line:
Spard-class destroyer
Barnell-class cruiser
Zaff-class battleship
