Great Powers

The Gateway region lies on the edge of Imperial space. The alliances, wars and trade agreements of its many small powers send ripples throughout the region, even to the capitals of the four great powers:

  • 1. The Hive Federation: As always, the Hivers are content to observe and stir the pot occasionally. Or is that what they want everyone to believe?
  • 2. The K'kree: Militant herbivores determined to exterminate all meat-eaters, the K'Kree make bad neighbors. A particularly aggressive faction, the Lords of Thunder, has carved out an empire in a neighboring sector, and they have only one direction to expand into …

  • The Loyal Sector Guard: An illegal but popular militia formed to defend Gateway Domain. Its leaders may have a different agenda, however.
  • The Droyne: After a long period of inactivity, Droyne ships are on the move throughout the region. Their agenda is completely unknown.
  • The Wanderers: Mysterious alien sophonts plying the spaceways in their world-ships. They seem friendly enough …
