The Spore Wiki Fiction Universe is a large Science Fantasy Shared Universe set in the 29th century, and revolves around the civilisations of the "First Gigaquadrant", a large cluster composed of several galaxies (there were originally around thirty of them, until the Annihilation). Originating from Spore fan fiction, the Spore Wiki Fiction Universe eventually became a science fiction world in its own right. It is located here and anyone can join and become a new writer.Stories are usually revolved around major wars and conflicts occurring in the universe (which happen all the time). Sometimes, there are "sidestories" tied to the events of said wars. The "war stories" are usually united in story arcs, which will usually all have the same protagonists (or antagonists, in case of The Great Uprising and the War of Ages). The largest ones so far are: The War of Ages, a Space Opera / Science Fantasy setting revolved around the battle of mortal civilisations with the Legion of the Deathmarch and the Xhodocto. The very first story in the Spore Wiki Fiction Universe and the largest one. Eventually ended with Master Kroc and other heroes descending into Inferno and sealing Kamik'Shi (god of said Legion and Xhodocto), being frozen within their home realm. Second Coming, the sequel to the War of Ages. Revolved around the Cult of the Deathmarch and other demonic forces trying to reawaken the Xhodocto and unleash them on the universe again. Eventually, they succeeded, and the Xhodocto destroyed most of the universe. Tantummodo Mortem, the sequel to the Second Coming, revolved around the third coming of the Xhodocto, who are now present in mortal husk bodies. The main plot involves a group of warriors infiltrating Xhodocto space to weaken them from inside out. Galaxies at War, the longest running saga on the wiki, involving the civilisations of the Cyrannia Cluster (though also branches out into other galaxies from time to time). The saga includes factions such as Rambo Nation, the Republic of Cyrannus, the Cognatus and the Cyrannian Empire. Perils of Ottzello, a story of survival of the Ottzello Galaxy's species against various foes, in a similar way to the Galaxies at War. Chronicles of Andromeda, detailing the revival of the namesake galaxy. Begins with a galaxy-spanning war caused by ancient and mystical artifacts and the manipulation of an Eldritch Abomination or two, and chronicles A new Alliance's rise to prosperity and galactic dominance. Conflicts of Borealis, the story of the Borealis Galaxy's races as they set their differences aside to fight off the Big Bad Ensemble around them, all while trying to save themselves from Time Master Zargoth of the Vyro'Ralza. Realities Altered, a group of stories that depict "what-if" scenarios, featuring alternate timelines based on the past, present and future of the community's fiction. The two largest stories are Dysnomia and the Mirror Universe. The Legacy, a group of stories detailing the distant future of the wiki, anywhere from a thousand years away, to several billion and even to the end of the universe itself. The Great Xonexian Shism - A conflict of seismic proportions between the various powers of the Xonexi Cluster and the Delpha Coalition of Planets. Notable in that both sides involve large-scale conflict between factions that are widely considered galactic heroes.There are still many more stories in the Spore Wiki, varying in style and size.While originally there was only the Fiction Universe. A growing core of writers and interests spawned a number of alternate settings that may or may not be related to the original Onuris Universe. The full list of universes and settings include: The Onuris Universe is the primary fiction universe. Originally the location of dozens of galaxies most of which were annihilated during the (unsurprisingly named) story of the Annihilation. Originally a deeply crapsack world that once went as far as to be submerged within Hell itself, it has become a World Half Full as the fading prevalence of the Xhodocto's armies allowed the surviving galaxies to begin restoring themselves. While originally home to dozens of galaxies, stories now focus on the The Milky Way, Bunsen, Andromeda, Quadrant Galaxies, Cyrannus, Cyranai, Mirus, Borealis and Kraw galaxies. At one time the story branched ito other universes such as Universe 66501 and the Draconizane Universe as well as higher dimentions such as the five-dimensional Taldar realm. Dysnomia is Andromeda taken to Warhammer 40,000-extreme levels of depressing and foreboding. Set one hundred years from the present, the Andromedan Galactic Commonwealth is gone, empires such as the Brood of War and the former Divinarium have decayed into criminal collectives and there is not much to do for anyone who is not a citizen of what's left of the Draconid Imperium or the Dominion of the Xhodocto other than hide, be miserable, make out a meagre existence or get killed horribly by demons. And even if you were lucky enough to live in the Imperium, your home nation is beset on all sides by The Legions of Hell, there is an obscene divide between rich and poor what's left of the economy is dominated by two criminal syndicates too powerful and too integrated into society for any one empire to take them down without making things worse. Mirror Universe is an alternate reality where the good guys are now evil and the gigaquadrant is ruled over by the Gigaquadrantic Hegemony led by President Apollo's evil counterpart Emperor Aedanius the First. With oppressive regimes, an all-seeing Orwellian security force of machines and a spymaster not above manipulating Hegemony-loyal politicians to increase his standing, the Mirror Universe is very easily proving that the Onuris Universe just wasn't crapsack enough.A Fantasy themed Spin-Off known as the SporeWiki Fantasy Universe also exists. | |

Kill the God: A common theme in fiction stories includes the destruction, either temporary or permanent, of one or more god-like entities. Examples include the War of Ages and its sequels, the Andromeda War and the Second Borealis Galactic War. | |

All Men Are Perverts: The primary reason the Radeons (being the holier-than-thou religious types) can barely stand being around humans. Also the main reason (along with humanity's general habit of waging wars and being dicks) for building a BFG on a moon in Alpha Centauri, pointed conveniently towards Sol. | |

| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_13b0f2e8 | comment |
We Will Use Manual Labour in the Future: Pretty widespread but it seems to vary from empire to empire. Obviously Evil empires such as the Wranploer Legion, Drakodominatus Tyranny and Panathera Slaver Guild will treat slaves as dirt or lower although some less black-and-white empires (such as the DCP) do it as well. In some cases such as the Brood of War or Draconid Imperium, what could be classed as a slave is merely a citizen with a few less rights. | |

Darker and Edgier: When most of the users are in their mid-to-late teens the original game is very tame compared to what happens in this Crapsack universe. The Realities Altered history Dysnomia manages to be even darker and edgier than most of the rest of the fictionverse. | |

Ancient Tradition | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_15448489 | comment |
Ancient Tradition: zig-zagged: The Draconid Imperium has several underground outposts on Earth which so far appear to be research stations dating back to around 1400 B.C. However there might be some evidence of Ancient Conspiracy going on as stories such as Studies in the Deep and Secret of the Alps hint of the occupants doing more than observational research. | |

No Biochemical Barriers | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_17058a90 | comment |
No Biochemical Barriers: Zig-zagged. Most aliens can breathe, eat, drink and kiss in atmospheres presumably different from their homeworld. Although they might all be wearing rebreathers so sophisticated they're practically invisible to the naked eye. Most aliens can eat alien food and drink too with no adverse effects (justified by the Civilisation who promote foodstuffs engineered to be edible to a wide variety of species). However interspecies hybrids have been shown to be impossible without the use of science or divine intervention. Handwaved with ascended/descended beings in that they don't follow the common laws of nature anyway. Kicath however are a straight-up aversion; water acts like bleach to their silicon-based biologies. So most foodstuffs are deadly. | |

Alternative Calendar | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_1d47dc06 | comment |
Alternative Calendar: Overlaps with Universal Universe Time and Standard Time Units. The Milky Way and Borealis galaxies still use the earthdate while the Cyrannian galaxy has used a calendar twice as long as the Earth one since its inception, meanwhile Andromeda has been converting to using the dating system used by the Draconid Imperium, probably the most peculiar of the knwon calendars. While it still adheres to a twelve-month system, each month is thirty days long and uses month names with little verbal comparison to our own. Oh yeah and one year is 1.15x the length of an Earth year. | |

Faceless Goons | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_2044af1 | comment |
Soldiers in the Imperial Talon Navy are highly-trained Faceless Goons in the literal sense that where you'd normally have a face, you get a blank metal plate. Talon Marines take it further by donning SPARTAN-style power armour dialed up to 11. The Blood Dragon Guard take a different approach in that their armour is both ornate and menacing. Both branches of the Guard are painted in a rather menacing-looking crimson. | |

Good Is Not Nice | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_21f3aa44 | comment |
Good Is Not Nice: Several protagonist characters have gone to a few extremes to get the job done. Empeor Wormulus II united the Grimbolsaurians under one regime and has had progress in mind ever since. He also has this rather nasty habit of landing his 140+km starship on the capital city of his defeated enemies in order to rub in how wrong they were to declare war on the DCP. The Cleanser is an ascended and self-proclaimed crusader of good. It just so happens he pursues his goal of peace by by mind raping his enemies with torturous and guilt-trip inducing imagery until they beg for mercy and promise to change their ways. | |

I'm a Humanitarian: The Loron as a whole are very prone to cannibalism, to the point they hardly even care about it. Character examples include the Wranploer Billig and the Kicath Incognito. Draconis are mostly fine with cannibalism. They used to do it more prior to spaceflight. The Orgaat culture thrives on it, needing it to keep their genetics stable, and to evolve new traits as they devour others. | |

No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: Carmetego delivered one against Shu'ytrogarva during Dreams of Destruction after being revived by the Onuris team. He erupted out of the demon's back while he was in the air, wrapped his tail around him, crash-landed with him from a height of over 50 meters and broke every bone of his body in revenge for previously having shattered him. | |

Wave-Motion Gun | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_263bb4ec | comment |
Wave-Motion Gun: Project: Terminus, a Death Star esque superweapon that fires a really, really, really big hyperlaser. While it didn't outright destroy planets, Project Armageddon was designed to fire a beam that flash-froze entire planets. Most capital ships of the Draconid Imperium have a large front-mounted cannon that the ship is built around. The largest count as this. | |

Puny Earthlings | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_26d18908 | comment |
Puny Earthlings: Compared to 21st century terrans, most alien species are considerably bigger and stronger than we are. Some species, particularly in Mirus, have an outward disdain for how puny we are compared to them. Subverted and then played straight in that humans have evolved a little and that there are near-humans out there who are also bigger and/or stronger than we in the 2000s could ever dream of. | |

Awesome, but Impractical: The Tiamat.

Shining City: Minos'Drakon, Orbispira and several cities on the Rambo Capital (suich as Tirithsillania) are the most prolific named examples. Orbispira however is more of a Shining Planet given it is urbanised from pole-to-pole and from crust-to-core. Hyperborea could also count on similar lines to Orbispira, given that it is an artificial construct built around the Kormacvar homeworld. | |

| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_2c1f1138 | comment |
Falrik Zaarkhun, while being a scheming sore and manipulative bastard of a Heeyorian, did create the largest and most propserous corporate consortium in Borealis, powerful enough to not only take on the Polar Crystal Alliance but set himself and Volim up as the foremost galactic power while also arguably creating a militaristic golden age with newer and more advanced weapons eclipsing older ones every month. His goal? No more governments, no more tyranny and no more nationalistic prejudice. Shame that all that corrupt capitalism fostered the very dystopian attitudes he wanted to wash away. | |

The World Is Not Ready: Taking some kind of pity during the Asgord Genocide, the Girdo Empire offered quantum replicators and subspace weapons to the Kraw empire with the request that they are used in moderation. A few weeks in however, and the Kraw are using subspace weapons like no tomorrow. Right here, the Girdo Emperor appears to the Kraw Leadership to tell them to stop or the Girdo would take their stuff back by force. The Andromedan Galactic Commonwealth uses this trope within itself to prevent careless use of the Highlord Council's most advanced technology by minor members. | |

Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_372bc105 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism: Fairly cynical since most of the First Gigaquadrant's greatest powers boast massive armies of ruthless, well-equipped soldiers and each warship is armed with enough firepower to annihilate any Earth nation on their own. The cynical part? Gunboat Diplomacy is very popular in the setting. Several of these powers are not averse to taking entire planetary poulations as slaves sometimes with Cool and Unusual Punishment to boot. You either submit to their demands or stay the hell away from them. Where are the nice-guy idealists? With factions like this, often the only way to beat these ruthless powers is to be ruthless yourself. So (with a few exceptions) most empires that try to be nice to everyone tend to stay largely ignored by the superpowers. The most notable exceptions include the New Cyrannian Republic and Rambo Nation, both of which tend to conduct themselves with the utmost decorum while retaining their place as universal powers. At least one user has pointed this out that the most successful empires in the First Gigaquadrant take every opportunity and not holding back. The rest, with the aforementioned exceptions, fading into obscurity. | |

Until the Omega Commander declares You Have Outlived Your Usefulness with the Emperor screaming that as the Commander's creator it has no right to do this.

Ragnarök Proofing: Precursor ruins can be millions of years old but remain explorable. Perhaps justified in that they are often built by Sufficiently Advanced Aliens. While it is unspecified how long it's been abandoned, many of the systems in the Draconid Imperium's Elaborate Underground Base in the Alps still work. Their computers remained intact enough for a French expedition to download thousands of years' worth of data. Potentially justified as the Imperium uses Data Crystals for its computers instead of silicon microchips. | |

Starship Luxurious: The Iron Fist could be described as a two kilometre long Nero's Palace with enough firepower to glass a planet on its own. Warships of the Draconid Imperium and Galactic Empire of Cyrannus are stated to be luxuriously decorated as a status symbol of their respective empires. While it is suggested the Empire takes a modernist approach, the Imperium prefers to outfit its interiors to look like the inside of a five-star art nouveau hotel. If the Iron Fist wasn't fancy enough with its walls of nanongineered solid gold, the interior decorators of the RASC Worldfather's Grace (The personal starship of Uriel Ultanos) are comparable to combining Versailles and Buckingham Palace. | |

A Protagonist Shall Lead Them | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_48904622 | comment |
A Protagonist Shall Lead Them: Quite a few and often the rise of such people is largely happenstance rather than prophecy. And given the wide-spectrum morality of the setting, we have both good and evil examples of this. Emperor Wormulus II, who managed to unite the warring Grimbolsaurian factions, lead them in an age of stellar expansion and has guided the Delpha Coalition of Planets to become one of the most powerful factions in the modern Gigaquadrant who are well on the path to transsapients. Apollo was the last president of the United Republic of Cyrannus prior to the formation of the Galactic Empire, and has been noted as a legendary politician, diplomat and force for order and peace. After several years on the run from the Empire, he returned to the Gigaquadrantic stage as the founding father of the New Cyrannian Republic and later, the massive intergalactic alliance known as the Mou'Cyran Accords, proving that one does not need to be the most physically powerful to change the cosmos. That is until Tyrómairon came along and merged the URC and its chief rival the Confederacy of Allied Systems like two pieces of a jigsaw puzzle into an even bigger hyperpower. Also being an ultraterrestrial the Empire is slowly (and secretly) being spoonfed the technology of the Oikoumene. Uriel Ultanos. His actions during two (could end up as three with the coming Gigaquadrantic Conflicts) devastating wars have given several aliens the impression he is Andromeda's best chance of becoming a unified galaxy. Given his Badass Normal credentials include a reputation as a godslayer and being a charismatic speaker they might have a point. Clericarch Iovera. With the collapse of the Second Masaari Crusade she led a group survivors (who had fled Tadjamad's rule out of protest) back to Andromeda and unified what was left after Tadjamad's death to create the Divinarium. And the Andromedan Galactic Commonwealth? Yeah that was her proposal. Also she has godlike power over reality. Aaand then there's Tyraz Breek. Born into a family in exile and treated like unwanted property because he was short (for Zazane short = weak), he took the throne of the Zazne Empire after his brother expired but only shortly before the Andromeda War did he decide on reformation, creating the more egalitarian Brood of War. Fifteen years on the Brood are one of the big three AGC members and the Zazane are becoming far more tolerant of non-Zazane. Falrik Zaarkhun, while being a scheming sore and manipulative bastard of a Heeyorian, did create the largest and most propserous corporate consortium in Borealis, powerful enough to not only take on the Polar Crystal Alliance but set himself and Volim up as the foremost galactic power while also arguably creating a militaristic golden age with newer and more advanced weapons eclipsing older ones every month. His goal? No more governments, no more tyranny and no more nationalistic prejudice. Shame that all that corrupt capitalism fostered the very dystopian attitudes he wanted to wash away. The Valader. While other examples are political leaders, The Valader was a warrior who had spent many years honing his psionic abilities. In the finale of the Psionic Lord Ascends here he he becomes Singul'Aren, the single most powerful user of Psionic energy in all of reality and a de facto leader for all those imbued with Psionic Energy to follow. His is a more classic tale in that he did eventually fight an ultimate evil in the end. | |

Doom Troops | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_4962280f | comment |
Doom Troops: Several militaries have their soldiers fitted with cybernetics or wearing body armour or Powered Armour that could be considered intimidating. Soldiers in the Imperial Talon Navy are highly-trained Faceless Goons in the literal sense that where you'd normally have a face, you get a blank metal plate. Talon Marines take it further by donning SPARTAN-style power armour dialed up to 11. The Blood Dragon Guard take a different approach in that their armour is both ornate and menacing. Both branches of the Guard are painted in a rather menacing-looking crimson. The marines of the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus wear specialised uniforms to incite intimidation in their opponents and keep citizens in line. Compared to other examples however, this is as far the dread goes. This was the point of the Overseers of the Drakodominatus Tyranny: Each division genetically bred, trained and equipped to instill maximum fear into the Tyranny's enemies. They'll even further reinforce this trope by fighting psychotically on the battlefield. The Agents of both the Kicath Empire and Remnant: When a squad of agents step onto the battlefield, its a cue for the enemy to start thinking twice about holding ground. The Grand Inquisition and its evil counterpart. The former goes for the more ecclesiastical - but still intimidating - "holy warriors of judgement" look (including dragon-headed helmets) while the latter goes for the more traditional "blackened spiky armour of doom" look. But both are designed to instil intimidation and doubt into anyone facing them. | |

Our Angels Are Different | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_4977559e | comment |
Our Angels Are Different: You can find three different kinds of angels in the fictionverse: the Obvia'Atra, the Vi'Navitum and the Thoi'olerthae. The Obvia'Atra were Jerkass, Narcissist archangels with a complete Lack of Empathy and disregard for all mortal life. The Vi'Navitum are a race responsable for seeding universes with life and once worked together with the Vyro'Narza to imprison the Xhodocto. However, when humanity freed the Xhodocto, the Vi'Navitum grew to become spiteful, aggressive beings who would rather cleanse all life in this universe rather than anything else. The Thoi'olerthae are feminine wisp-like Energy Beings who can see into the minds of all creatures capable of dreaming and act as their guardian angels. Of the three "angel" races, the Thoi'olerthae are the only genuinely benevolent one and the only one to care for mortals. | |

SocialDarwinist | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_4cf04991 | comment |
Kolossus himself was "cursed" by Mac with the same affliction the latter had been living with after the former's defeat. Becoming "sub-immortal", he was depowered to the point where two of his most powerful servants could theoretically destroy him if they were so inclined. And given one is an obscenely self-centred Social Darwinist with is own case of A God Am I and powers to boot, this period was a nightmare for him. | |

Tailor-Made Prison | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_4e1d9178 | comment |
Tailor-Made Prison: The Realm of Absolution, owned by the Church Militant Grand Inquisition has neurosleep pods, which force you into a deep vegetative state (hovering between alive and braindead) until you die naturally. Their purpose is to contain powerful individuals who are either too dangerous to be conscious or cannot die (sometimes both). | |

Physical Religion | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_4ed7b30d | comment |
Physical Religion: Any religion based around any of the godraces. They still get unbelievers to them, for some reason. The Aeoneonatrix's religion is also like this. Though he has appeared in multiple stories some users do not consider the Cleanser (the patron god of the Aeoneonatrix) to be existent in canon. The same goes for anyone worshiping a member of the League of Patrons. The Spore Cult if certain events on the Universal Discussion board are to be accepted as canon. | |

The Bridge | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_508ef715 | comment |
The Bridge: This one was obvious given how much emphasis is put on navies. Its prominence however varies with the story. Vessels of the Draconid Imperium, Draconizane Dominion and the Unified Andromedan Navy avoid putting the bridge at the top of front of the ship and Instead install "command rooms" at the very core of the vessel. Also most meetings between individuals on starships are more likely to happen in a dedicated briefing room (for official business) or a common area of sorts (for personal vessels). The bridge of the advanced Presidio-class Star Cruiser used by the nations of the Mou'Cyran Accords actually moves throughout the ship depending on the situation. | |

City of Gold: The various skyscrapers of the Draconid Imperium's metropoli are described as "spires of gold and glass." The Obvia'Atra's Fluffy Cloud Heaven was potentially even more abundant in gold decoration and while more of a fortress than a city, the interior of the bastion of the Sons of Hedon was positively smothered in patterned gold. | |

Genetic Engineering Is the New Nuke: The huge numbers of genetically-engineered supersoldiers aside, there is the Dominatus "Ultima serum", designed to turn any living thing into a hulking and supremely-adaptable superbeing (so long as you beat the one-in-a-million odds of survival) that can grow in power by consuming biomass. The Rades were such savants with genetics that their technology and even architecture appears to consist of both inorganic components and organic tissue. One Andromedan biotech firm provides Rades-derived technology that allows you to morph yourself any way you wish, which includes gaining increased muscle mass and growing extra arms. | |

Gargle Blaster: Kicathian "death drinks". While most Kicath drinks are pretty strong, the easiest way to describe these particular drinks is "flavoured benzene". Draconid wine, while not as lethal as a Kicathian death drink, can still hit you like a brick unless you have a very powerful liver or a lot of mass. While no specific alcohol content has been given, some users have imagined it is on-par with Absynth. | |

Planet of Hats: A fair number of examples because it is easier to portray. Often Proud Warrior Race Guy (eg. Zazane). Natives of the Kraw Galaxy are typically extreme examples of this (sometimes bordering on Scary Dogmatic Aliens ). | |

Cosmic Horror Story | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_6a1c2a6 | comment |
Cosmic Horror Story: The short story "Destinies in time". Considering the influence of demonic beings, the whole universe during the War of Ages and the Second Coming arcs could come under this. Another example is the "The Ancients' Legacy" arc of the Second Borealis War. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Barring shout-outs we have: Vorius. an amorphous blob that eats people Volkarus. "Volk" being a german word for "folk", which for a time was his favourite meal. The Cyrannian Empire's core worlds grand mandator is named Ceasarius. Three guesses as to the kind of person he is. Uriel means "light of God" in Hebrew. Pretentious, but he is seen as Andromeda's best hope for a united Andromeda. This was intended for Invictus (Latin: unconquerable), but became rather ironic given what happened to it. The Empyrean Guard are the personal guard of the draconid paragon (who is the head of a cult of personality) and the garrison of the related palace. For that matter Paragon, while a corruption of the Dracid word, is no less meaningless given the fact paragons are generally prime specimens of physical and mental condition. The Cretacea family, before a major retcon were known as the Cretaceous family. Tyrómairon. He's about as ancient and enigmatic as his name implies. Eolania Iovera Menoraim. "Vera" is Latin for "true" and Russian for "faith", while "Menoraim" is a play on Menorah, a Jerwish symbol; all these meaning apply as she is the High Priest of the persecuted Proud Scholar Race. There are plenty of in-universe examples of this going on too. Old Fordan is built on this. Names aren't given, they are earned. "For'Dan'Ta" itself translates roughly as "kindred". Hel'Bre'K's name means either "Champion of the Ancients" (less likely after his age was retconned from 2000 years to 126) or "Blade of Woe". Fitting given his his reputation as a One-Man Army and tendency to descend into an Unstoppable Rage. Hachiman was named by his parents after a Japanese war spirit revered by his former clan. He prefers being called "Hachi" though. Paragavatus in High Dracid translates as "master king". Seems apt for a Hegemonic Empire. Uriel again, as his and his father's name is a corruption of an ancient word from ancient times on Alcanti that meant "peacekeeper". Apolithanatár, the powerful Oikoumene Lord of Light, is said to mean "Eternal Starlight" in an ancient Oikoumene tongue. Some figures have noted how bizzarely similar Tyraz's name sounds to "tyrant". Particularly due to the rather grisly form of governance he practiced as the Zazane emperor. | |

| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_6c553873 | comment |
Private Military Contractors: Those litter the Arm of Wildness of the Borealis Galaxy, introduced by the Borealis Consortium Network to create a system of culling the weak in favor of the strong. They are not associated with any empires and cause war in the name of whoever hired them. As such, the Polar Crystal Alliance considers being a mercenary a galactic crime. | |

Nonhuman Humanoid Hybrid: There are multiple. The most known example is Kezoreg Breek, who has a Zazane father, an Asgord mother and inherited blood from a Xhodocto, making him a three-way hybrid. Other examples include Empress Maryah (Spinker/Dracogonarious), Kol Daren (Driz Zazane/Ottzelloan Zazane), the entire Draconizane race (Draconis/Zazane) and Iovera's kids (Radeon/Zazane). | |

Awakening the Sleeping Giant | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_7317b97d | comment |
Awakening the Sleeping Giant: There are several hyperpowers in the gigaquadrant that you do not want to disturb. This is the common result of empires who challenge the DCP, the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus or the Draconid Imperium. Medusa Heimdall learned the hard way that not even having one of the single most poweful navies in recent years can save you. To sum it up, Medusa organised an operation to claim the single most massive factory complex in Andromeda. In doing so however the entire inner rim took up arms and kicked her out. They then proceeded to chew up the Tyranny's colonies in Northern Draco which culminated in the complete erasure of Invictus. If that wasn't bad enough, there is strong implication the AGC has sent an invasion force right for Demogorgon Prime! At the dawn of its existence, the Cyrannian Empire issued a "get out or we kill you all" ultimation for colonies in Cyrannus owned by extragalactics. For those who stayed, to say it was a Curb-Stomp Battle is an understatement. The Great Xonexian Schism is a perfect example of what happens when two giants proceed to fight each other. | |

The Galactic Empire of Cyrannus: Easily one of the setting's most characteristic examples.

The Second Great Cyrannus War saw it engaged in a conflict against practically everyone in known space. | |

Bullying a Dragon | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_7eb73553 | comment |
Bullying a Dragon: Happens often, mostly involving mortals or Badass Normals challenging supernaturals. The Iteok once tried invading the DCP. They only got as far as they did because the DCP played with them before stomping them flat. Don't kidnap Alessa Ultanos or threaten her life, or her daddy (or one of his Physical God friends) will ruin your life. Many have often mocked, insulted or shamed Kezoreg for being an abomination or a stupid kid despite the fact said stupid kid can toss around tanks. The Kraw Empire tried to exile most of the foreign powers that had settled their galaxy. Many on their list however were centuries ahead of them and controlled vast swathes of territory such as the Andromedan Galactic Commonwealth yet the Kraw attitude was "get out or face our wrath". The Tyrekian Dominion did this with extra Too Dumb to Live a few months later. They reasoned attacking the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus for territorial gain was suicide, yet the Draconid Imperium (who are by many measures as advanced and extensive as the Empire) was deemed a juicy target. | |

Above Good and Evil | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_86968c96 | comment |
Above Good and Evil: While perceived as evil, Kamik'Shi is said to be a "neutral" god, as he is incomprehensible to mortals. Same for the Xhodocto and, to lesser extent, other "omnipotent" species such as the Isio'Nar and Mali'Nar. This also greatly applies to the Ultraterrestrials and on an even larger scale, the One God. | |

City Noir | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_86e12b9a | comment |
City Noir: Most Kicathian metropoli fit this trope. They always build high, prefer plain grey or silver and for some reason enjoy sites where it is constantly raining. Also the local police force are more likely to kill criminals on sight than detain them and give them a fair trial. It's possible UNO cities also fit this given that crime and prostitution is not only shrugged at, but actually encouraged thanks to The System. | |

Space Elves | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_892c6fdc | comment |
Space Elves: Many examples exist, most fit in either Type I or II and combine with dinosaurs. Due to creative tenancies, a number tend to border on the freakishly-tall side. Prominent examples include: Radeons: Lithe, long-lived psychic mystics who live in shiny crystal spires, highly spiritual and compared to their neighbors, prefer diplomacy or espionage to frontline warfare. Capricornians but Libertus and Basileus in particular: Tall humanoid raptors. The former are (in the New Cyrannian Republic at least) peace-loving, see democracy as the most noble form of government and ultimately wish for a universal community where everyone gets along. Libertus in the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus and Basileus however tend to demonstrate a superiority complex. Danann-Danú: Elves in the truest sense who are members of the Allied Terran Republic. Lithe, beautiful, potentially immortal, and the Terran Republic's president is perceived as wise, graceful and haughty. Arguably some humans (such as the French or the Japanese) have become this after modifying themselves to be nigh-immortal and extremely good-looking even when they're nearly a hundred years old. Rovegar: Very tall fairy-like beings who life off life-force and display phenomenal psychic power. | |

Space Cold War | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_8a943fe3 | comment |
Space Cold War: While briefly allied against the Cyrannian Imperial State during the New Cyrandia Wars, the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus and the New Cyrannian Republic became locked in a decade-spanning cold war, with both sides working to undermine the other for control of the Cyrannus Galaxy and the mantle of galactic governance. When the tensions expanded beyond Cyrannus, civilisations such as the Polar Crystal Alliance opened up their own front against the Empire in Borealis. In the fraught astropolitical climate however, both the Republic and the Empire's interactions with other powers were often carried out with an eye to the opposing side. There is a consensus among the community that the Empire has been in a state of cold war with the Draconid Imperium some twenty years before hostilities between the NCR and the Empire reached Cold War like tensions. | |

Many Atlantica artifacts appear to be made from stone or otherwise have a Mayincatec look to them. | |

For whatever reason a spacetime construct in Andromeda's core was made for, both the Draconis and the Seven Starr explorers who found it agree it must never be touched until the death of the last black hole in the universe. | |

Canis Latinicus: High Dracid (the main language of the Draconid Imperium) sounds vaguely Latin-esque, with some evidence that these languages are (courtesy of Draconis Ancient Astronauts) related. Several species of the Cyrannus Galaxy (the Libertus and the Basileus, to be precise) also use Romanesque names both for people and places, although Cyrannian Basic itself (if a couple of gratuitous Cyrannian phrases are any indication) isn't exactly similar to Latin (it does sound vaguely Romance, though). | |

More Teeth than the Osmond Family: Spinkers have shark-like teeth which they constantly shed over their lives. They have an average of 60 teeth on their mouths in 3 rows, and since they can live nearly 900 years, some Spinkers can shed over a million teeth over their entire lifespans. Mendel can have anywhere from 50-55 teeth, and two large tusks in their jaws as well. The Unfathomable, an Eldritch Abomination residing in the Chaos realm of Tangent, is described by Kithworto as being 'a million rows of a million teeth' with a size that 'made the universe appear like the eye of a needle'. | |

A given in a setting where Xenofiction is the norm. In New Dawn for instance, where Tiny, the Dumb Muscle Mighty Glacier of the New Dawn's crew bites a Brotherhood soldier in half. He's only doing what he learned as a slave of the Gros and triggers revulsion in the other crew members. All except for Tarsus, who muses he'd like to do something similar to the backstabbing Ice Queen Sida'kuul who is primarily the reason WHY the Brotherhood are running around her city trying to gun the New Dawn's crew down. For Draconis, feasting on your enemy isn't an abhorrent act. | |

Homage | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_a1a1491e | comment |
Homage: The Cyrannus and Quadrant Galaxies bear a good visual resemblance to the universes of Star Wars and Star Trek respectively. A few noteworthy incidents include Apollo being abducted by the Neraida Gigamatrix and turned into one of them a la Captain Jean-Luc Picard. Supreme Admiral Zillum's Super Star Destroyer was dubbed The Executor. Cold Relays allow quick and easy travel throughout Borealis. Built by a race of precursors to which interstellar life has grown to be dependant on. Sound familiar? During the Ice Age arc, Billig's arm was implanted with the AI duplication of Falrik Zaarkhun's mind. And it eventually took him over. Dysnomia itself shares many traits with Warhammer 40,000, Devil May Cry and Hellsing. The main protagonist appears to be a blend of both Alucard and Dante, particularly their love for Guns Akimbo, demonic heritage (with Dante), a penchant for long red coats and bearing a similar hat to Alucard. Also he's as much of a Jerkass as Dante himself. The Andromeda War's Battle for Alcanti pits the demonically-empowered Volkarus Khaxvis against Uriel Ultanos in the latter's throne room. Subverted in that it was a Curb-Stomp Battle and Tyraz ended up fighting Volkarus while Uriel lay bleeding out on the floor. The story the media were given however, played out exactly like the famed final duel of the Horus Heresy. The Ryderallo Monster was a dead ringer to the Cloverfield monster. | |

Divine Right of Kings | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_a1a38c5d | comment |
Divine Right of Kings: Various cases from being ordained by a religion to gods ruling empires The Draconizane Dominion holds that their God-Emperor Kordan Rex was hand-picked as Zr'An'Kar's herald. An invoked trope because Zr'An'Kar turned up several times in Kordan's life to further encourage him to ever greater heights of dominance. Depending on who you ask, the Paragon of the Draconid Imperium was either the chosen by Drakon, a mortal angel, or an incarnation of said god. Various cults of the Paragon take it further, asserting the figure to be a Physical God in their own right. The various incarnations of the Church of Spode believe their heads of state are chosen by The Messengers, angels who serve the omnipotent Dei'Nar. On more than one occasion however, said head of state is in power because of The Coup (such as Tadjamad or Jaharic). Simply believing their ascension is what the Messenges had intended. According to Zazane mythology, Zagdala Breek was the chosen champion of the deity Vaxal Myraad, being the first ever Descended Being. Deconstructed as both Zagdala and the Breek Bloodline inspire revulsion and dread among Zazane. Something plenty are glad to see the back of after the death of Tyraz Breek. Played dead straight with the Rambo Royal Family. A celebrated lineage whose right to rule is thought to come from the Atlantica. Warlord Hez'Kalka. An interlocutor between the Xhodocto and their mortal subjects, he is the closest thing to a chosen master of the Deathmarch even after Anzilanarus was inserted above him into the infernal hierarchy. Tyromairon looks to be establishing this, founding a solid cult of personality with his rule that marks him as the best thing to ever happen to the Cyrannus galaxy. Being an unfrozen Precursor (although he keeps that quiet), he's something of a secret God-Emperor. | |

Hollywood Tactics: Mostly true for ground battles where the action typically focuses on specific characters. Vehicles such as tanks or aircraft are generally assumed to be in the background battle, leaving the main characters to kill off the infantry and bosses. Space battles can play it straight, where the strategy is often to blow up as many ships as possible, forcing the enemy to retreat or sending a boarding party to face the Big Bad | |

Status Quo Is God: Largely averted save for the Xhodocto and the Corruptus: If things ever went their way there would be no universe for there to be fiction in. This has unfortunately led to an apparently incurable case of Villain Decay for the Xhodocto themselves. This has the opposite effect on Admiral Torrent. His uncanny ability to escape capture means no matter how hard police forces try they will never catch him and making him an ever-present threat to the galaxy. | |

Thanks to a big part of its of its aristocracy being CEOs or major shareholders, the Draconid Imperium is filled with these. | |

Deliberate Values Dissonance | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_aabe2fb | comment |
Deliberate Values Dissonance: A given in a setting where Xenofiction is the norm. In New Dawn for instance, where Tiny, the Dumb Muscle Mighty Glacier of the New Dawn's crew bites a Brotherhood soldier in half. He's only doing what he learned as a slave of the Gros and triggers revulsion in the other crew members. All except for Tarsus, who muses he'd like to do something similar to the backstabbing Ice Queen Sida'kuul who is primarily the reason WHY the Brotherhood are running around her city trying to gun the New Dawn's crew down. For Draconis, feasting on your enemy isn't an abhorrent act. For a time, the Kraw Galaxy was awash with a wave of "Draconidophobia", a term for when the member states of the Kraw Federation lived in paranoid fear the Draconis would invade civilized space and enforce their rule upon them. An eerie analogue of McCarthyism as the species of the Kraw Galaxy are deeply passionate about democracy - something they believed the Draconid Imperium was not. The Kraw species could not for the life of them understand how the Imperium lasted so long as a constitutional monarchy. For the Hollywood Atheist Tahar, the idea of becoming an advanced civilization and still holding on to values that one can consider religious is almost mind-blowing. As a result, they tend to label any empire that is not athiest as "primitive". Yes, even that Higher-Tech Species they just bumped into. Zazane believe in purity of form. As a result, most are averse to any kind of genetic augmentation or cybernetics. This stretches to aliens. If you're an alien cyborg or supersoldier expect to be berated harshly for your cowardice in agreeing to such enhancements. The Aeoneonatrix are devoutly religious in their pursuit of vanquising evil. Having a Physical Religion where their patron diety is said to be the most benevolent being in existence who believes in only the triumph of good over evil, most Aeoneonatrix wouldn't think twice about giving him their soul, in fact it's a core aspect of the induction to their religion. Unfortunately other civilizations aren't so lenient with the use of one's soul, and it often baffles the Aeoneonatrix why so many would rather not give the ultimate gift or the most benevolent thing ever. However their patron's pursuit is more Utopia Justifies the Means than any of them realise. To the Draconis, people who smile with any teeth showing are giving them a Slasher Smile. No exceptions or middle ground. Kicath hold a very absolutist view of the universe. And settle for nothing less than total eradication when their empires are slighted. This strict view of the universe however makes diplomacy difficult. | |

Stupid Good: The Second Borealis War was a big offender. There have been numerous times where the group have fallen for obvious diversions and traps. This is reflected in-universe in "Changing History" when the extragalactic powers start pointing out the Polar Crystal Alliance's incompetence. The Alliance's reaction however, was to argue among themselves and blame the Zoles for everything. The Asgord Genocide started because of a cultural misunderstanding between the Asgord and the Tralor. That misunderstanding being that the Tralor consider unsolicited physical contact (like petting, which to the Asgord is a form of greeting) akin to rape. | |

Retcon | |

Retcon: Plenty of them. Notable ones include those applied to new fictions, especially ones that start out as "too powerful" or deemed so by the community. The Xhodocto have undergone major retcon a number of times before, going from being Always Chaotic Evil Legions of Hell to be morally ambiguous forces of nature beyond mortal and immortal understanding. The Xarik-Radux (pronounced Kuh-Zar-Ick Reh-Duh-Kuz by the way) were originally a Scary Dogmatic Alien race in the Fiction Universe itself before they were retconned into interdimensional monsters which are part of another work with very little in relation to the SporeWiki Universe itself. Tyrómairon was retconned from a rebelling, jealous evil-doer to a scheming, complex mastermind. In fact, most of Cyrannian's fiction had at least one major retcon in its history. | |

Normal Fish in a Tiny Pond | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_b55698cd | comment |
Normal Fish in a Tiny Pond: When most factions regularly face off against galactic-level threats, the odd occasion where such characters turn to a smaller scale problem become this. Wrath Of The Imperium is a series of short stories where military assets of the Draconid Imperium face off against much smaller-scale empires. A single fighter drone becomes a Boss Fight and Elite Mooks like Talon Marines become The Dreaded when facing a technologically inferior opponent. In a heist gone south for one Andorian smuggler, a single cruiser may as well have been a heavily armed battleship. In the wars of the Gigaquadrant however, such ships are often quickly fodder. A semi-canon story recounts a preindustrial Drodo physician records studying the corpse of a Draconis. While the species does not stand out; largely non-psychic and not nearly as physically large or strong as something like a Loron, to the 5ft tall physician however, "dragon" is an entirely appropriate label. | |

Scary Dogmatic Aliens | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_b578811d | comment |
Scary Dogmatic Aliens: A fair few. What reinforces the Black-and-Gray Morality of the fiction universe is there's the imperialist (DCP, Draconid Imperium) social darwinist (Brood Of War, Fordan Empire), and Church Militant (Divinarium) empires as the good guys. The most common type of Dogmatism so far is Fundamentalism: Cogsangui, Ernai, Minga, Devourer's Chosen, Mahanayans, and, of course, Radeons. Second most common type is Conquistadorism: DCP, Junction, Zazane, and most of the Grox empires aren't the only examples. Communism is present as well with, partially, Zazane and Radeons. Nazism so far is the rarest hat on SporeWiki, the only major example being Basileus. | |

Came Back Wrong | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_b983a56b | comment |
Maleus: Before he converted to the Congregation he was an admiral of little note. After the Inquisition of Drakon offed him, his soul spent who-knows-how-long drifting in Inferno before escaping only to be empowered by a Doomstone as a reward and get an invitation to join the Xhodocto Dominion's Eternal Circulus. Effectively giving him command over every Dominion mortal or descended below the Eternal Circulus. | |

Berserk Button: The Grox are a collective berserk button on the Delpha Coalition of Planets and the Civilisation. This has died out after the defeat of the Meta-Empire, though. Kicath don't enjoy being ordered around. Comparing Arkarixus to Regnatus is a terrible idea. The Unified Nation of Ottzello's Loron and Da Rogue Boyz's Loron'Kikra all have a berserk button on each other's existence, though in their case it's Played for Laughs. | |

Anti-Hero | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_beb9a361 | comment |
Anti-Hero: The Cyranai Hivemind, despite their benevolent intentions, are not afraid of attacking innocent civilizations and assimilating them into the titular Hive Mind. Of course, it's kind of hard to blame them when they're essentially trapped in a small galaxy where their only neighbours are a nation of cruel, manipulative geniuses. It is also hinted that one of the reasons the Hivemind assimilates weaker civilizations is that they take pity on them, and see the fate of being assimilated into a hive mind but for the most part retaining individuality better than becoming an unwitting slave of the Bisistar. | |

Translator Microbes: For the most part it is automatically assumed everyone possesses a universal translator. The only real mention of translators is the AGC telepathic translator, said to be a directional translater that translates your speech based on who you want to speak to. Averted in the early stages of Dark Mirror, instead where the only people who could understand each other were either telepathic (thus able to interpret the speaker's intentions) or were designated translators. | |

Shout-Out | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: By the bucketload. During his exodus from Cyrannus, President Apollo managed the affairs of the Republic Remnant from a ship dubbed Colonial One. General Zillum, after a crushing defeat by Republic forces during the Great Cyrannus War, had his body rebuilt by Tyrómairon in a secret lair becoming his most prized asset. Continuing on with the Star Wars theme, Tyrómairon himself gave a similar speech to that of Emperor Palaptine at the end of their respective wars. Announcing the foundation of a galactic empire of unrivaled extent. "Butter! That'll go great with my Grand Slam!", said by an ill-fated soldier of the TIAF. During the Firestorm arc of the Andromeda War, the Brood of War relied on the expertise of one Commander Yarick to lead their forces to victory. There was a time when several users were in the grip of loving the video game Dota 2. Many lines said by Dota heroes were mimicked by numerous characters over a two-month period. My Little Pony references have also managed to make their way into fiction. After Volkarus was crippled in a fight against Tyraz, his first act upon realising how much he had been deformed was to scream out Tyraz's name Kirk-style. Larnus Vontarion devised a battle tactic that involved warp-hopping close to your oponent's ship and unleashing a full broadside. Not too dissimilar to a maneuver devised by Jean-Luc Picard of Star Trek: The Next Generation during his career. | |

Large and in Charge | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_c7f294da | comment |
Large and in Charge: Leaders of "might makes right" style species are often gigantic compared to other members of their species. The trope itself can be divided into four major categories: Descended beings such as Kordan Rex, Kol Daren, Volkarus and the servants of Shu'Wokerama and Angazhar all became large due to the reality-bending nature of descension. Some such as Pyrak Yannor, Volkarus, the Dominatus and the Head Overseers were enlargened through genetic engineering. "Full" demons and godlike entities such as Shu'Wokerama, Shu'Ulathoi and the Xhodocto Horsemen are all positively enormous. One theory being that mortal minds perceiving them as gigantic to comprehend the immense power they have over reality. Angazhar is the iconic example: He has at times resembled a giant demonic eyeball that takes up most of Inferno's sky. Others such as Clericarch Iovera, General Zillum and Genreal Volim, Agent Nu and Kithworto just happen to be naturally tall. | |

Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: In a universe where regular mortals fight eldritch abominations on a regular basis, it's to be expected. The earliest and most famous example was when Master Kroc fought and defeated the setting's counterpart of Satan and trapped him in a sword in the end of the War of Ages. Several wars and eras seem to conclude with fighting or somehow casting down a being of godlike power. | |

Outside-Context Problem | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_cc7fae30 | comment |
Outside-Context Problem: Enough of these have happened that the concept has gotten somewhat predictable, but there are incidents where even societies thoroughly familiar with an invasion from the Legions of Hell get caught with their pants down. The Gigaquadrant's first encounter with the Draconizane involved Tyraz's flagship being attacked by an armada with considerable firepower. Who boarded the Ghost of the Warrior, kidnapped an Andromedan highlord with barely any hint as to why, leaving without a trace hint of just where they went or why Tyraz was so special to them. The Aetomarchis arriving on an ancient Alcanti. Not only was he the first case of a Zazane in the First Gigaquadrant hundreds of thousands of years before anyone would know what one was, he introduced a completely alien form of energy that lingers in the biology of an entire species to this day. The Mali'Nar practically thrive being outside context. Most think only of themselves so a general motive is impossible to find. The more powerful Malis are capable of transforming entire planets or redefining the laws of physics just because they feel like it. The basis of the Holy Shadow War is this. Thousands of planets across the Gigaquadrant are suddenly dealing with a Zombie Apocalypse with no clear sign as to why or how this is happening. While solutions for how to stop it never got very far beyond beyond vapourising the crap out of everything. | |

The Aesthetics of Technology | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_cd52fd56 | comment |
The Aesthetics of Technology: Part of the Rule of Cool foundation. As a homage to Star Wars, the Cyrannus Galaxy has similar Raygun Gothic overtones. Invoked by the Draconid Imeprium's older vessels, as much like modern aviation philosophy the Draconis more frequently update the interior than they do the exterior as time goes by. As such despite looking identical on the outside, a newly-refurbished cruiser can easily outclass the same model fitted with equipment that was cutting-edge seventy years ago. Inverted by the French, who use tanks, small arms and starfighters that look straight from them modern day but are just as effective in combat as anything the top Gigaquadrant powers can design. | |

The Tahar Empire reached the conclusion that any and all forms of religion spur nothing but ignorance, stupidity, intolerance and will always hold society back. Their plan to rectify all this is to aggressively abolish the concept of religion with the belief that their outlook on the universe is the only right one.

Being a Flanderization of might-makes-right warrior cultures, the Iteok Khereg believe themselves to be stronger than even the Xhodocto. This is more P Layed For Laughs as the Iteok are a minor civilisation by Gigaquadant standards who are constantly duped into being used as Cannon Fodder by actual supernaturals with promises of power. | |

Our Dragons Are Different: Most of the universe is populated by reptiles or synapsids, a good half of them are dragonlike. The four most prominent examples are the Dracogonarious, Spinker and Draconis and Zazane. Draconis are big, intelligent and quite often centuries old. While they look like your typical western dragon, they can't breathe fire but are the second-strongest of the four. Zazane are super-strong, aggressive, yet despite those wings they can't fly and their biology is laced with noticeable traces of Applied Phlebotinum. Said Phlebotinum is however killing them over the course of several generations. Dracogonarious are most likely to be found in a labatory or a scientific expedition and are the most "scholarly" variation of the four you can get. They can also potentially outlive a Draconis. Spinkers are the warriors of the Indoctrinate collective, can be quite tempermental and are in line much more with sharks than dragons. Due to their serpentine tails, batlike wings, horns and clawed feet, they're more like half-shark-half-dragon. | |

Elaborate Underground Base | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_daef39ee | comment |
While it is unspecified how long it's been abandoned, many of the systems in the Draconid Imperium's Elaborate Underground Base in the Alps still work. Their computers remained intact enough for a French expedition to download thousands of years' worth of data. Potentially justified as the Imperium uses Data Crystals for its computers instead of silicon microchips. | |

A prime example of this are Kicath Agents, who are built not unlike super advanced tanks and can run at very high speeds. Agent Tau, the fastest Agent of all, has a maximum sprint of 221mph. | |

Start X to Stop X: Kol Daren believes that all the suffering and trauma in the universe is caused by mortals being selfish jerks. How does he plan to solve all this? Simple: Slaughtering every single living thing in the universe in the most sadistic and gruesome way possible. The Tahar Empire reached the conclusion that any and all forms of religion spur nothing but ignorance, stupidity, intolerance and will always hold society back. Their plan to rectify all this is to aggressively abolish the concept of religion with the belief that their outlook on the universe is the only right one. They completely dismiss anyone who might suggest an alternative view. | |

Our Giants Are Bigger: At up to twelve metres tall, Dominatus are perhaps the largest sapient beings in the gigaquadrant, Justified in that their bodies are a good part cybernetics and internal reinforcement. Serving them are the Overseers, who are cloned from kidnapped templates of other gigaquadrant species and dosed with a Super Serum that can make them up to literally ''twice'' as tall as normal. Bear in mind that most spacefaring species measure roughly two-and-a-half to four mentres tall, and there are plenty who are even taller. | |

Unobtanium: Several materials depending on the tier level of the faction in question, but the award goes to neutron degenerate matter: When refined it can be used to make the densest and most resillient ship armour imaginable. But because it can only be found in the heart of neutron stars, it is unreachable by all but the most advanced civilisations in the First Gigaquadrant. | |

Cruel Mercy | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_e19e68 | comment |
Cruel Mercy: Commander Tonbas Credavan believed this was a more severe punishment for the Kralgon Emperor, with the latter even asking for death as a dying wish. Being surrounded by psychopathic supersoldiers, Loron and a chronic cannibal however, Tonbas' words go ignored and the Emperor got his wish. This was the fate of General Volim at the hands of Kolossus. Forced to spend eternity drifting in the interuniversal void immune to hunger, asphyxiation, death or thirst while being constantly forcefed the corpses of his own dead children. Most of the heroes believed that this punishment was just too cruel even for Borealis' answer to Atilla the Hun. When a different group (with some veterens) encounter him in Santorakh's realm they discover that he had become Santorakh's personal plaything, learning that Santorakh's tortures and influence had eventually turned him into a tortured mass of scarred flesh wishing only for death. In one of the Furia Ex Deus short stories, Uriel uses an And I Must Scream device to effectively immortalise a would-be assassin for this very reason because the man did not fear execution. Kolossus himself was "cursed" by Mac with the same affliction the latter had been living with after the former's defeat. Becoming "sub-immortal", he was depowered to the point where two of his most powerful servants could theoretically destroy him if they were so inclined. And given one is an obscenely self-centred Social Darwinist with is own case of A God Am I and powers to boot, this period was a nightmare for him. | |

From Nobody to Nightmare | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_e1acc872 | comment |
From Nobody to Nightmare: Falrik Zaarkhun: Born into one of the billions of financially struggling Heeyorian families in Ottzello, a cull enforced by his government traumatised him and he rose to become no only one of the richest men in Borealis, but also its most powerful crime lord. Volkarus Khaxvis. Originally a mid-ranking officer of the Khaxvis Resurgence, an opportune Descension by Tyraz and numerous subsequent grabs for power has made him one of the most dangerous entities in Andromeda. With his alliance with Br'Klakkon, he borders on Physical God status. Maleus: Before he converted to the Congregation he was an admiral of little note. After the Inquisition of Drakon offed him, his soul spent who-knows-how-long drifting in Inferno before escaping only to be empowered by a Doomstone as a reward and get an invitation to join the Xhodocto Dominion's Eternal Circulus. Effectively giving him command over every Dominion mortal or descended below the Eternal Circulus. Vesperon Maltris: As if a commoner holding the second highest position in an empire where lineage is everything wasn't concerning enough (for the aristocracy at least), he's been plotting for control of the galaxy since the Andromeda War. His machinaations were pivotal components of New Dawn and The Shattering and for a time he succeeded. The French Empire is a national example: They rose from mediocre Orion Arm power to leading superpower so fast that much older civilisations, the Kicath in particular, are terrified of their potential. | |

StrawmanPolitical | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_e2023325 | comment |
Strawman Political: Before reworks made after the original creator left, the races of the Kraw Galaxy could each be considered strawmen for various sociopolitical views. The Kraw believe that a democracy is the ideal form of government and that anything else is an impediment to personal freedom. And they would hold picket protests for just about everything. While most KG individuals are atheist, Tahar combine Hollywood Atheist with Insufferable Genius. They see any mention of the metaphysical as an affront to the laws of the universe and if they don't have an explanation for an observation, said observation is a mistake. This reaches egregious levels when the people they're trying to disprove are centuries ahead of them. The Komorian Theocratic Empire is a clear mockery of Western Christian doctrine, complete with an obliviousness to the contradiction of an all-loving deity who punishes all non-believers by casting them into hell. The Hakonians are trans-sapient with the opinion that machines are superior to organic life to the point where they consider nature (as in plants and animals) being obsolete in favour of a machine age. Their love of robotics is topped off by their preference for unit designations over more typical names. The Iteok Khereg are horrifying brutes with a sadistic love for killing and are all-too-happy to brag about being able to take on gods. While passing themselves off as warriors, it is pretty clear they have no concept of honour considering they happily eat alien babies. The Dagorian Mercenarium is profit motive taken to the extreme, where being broke is considered a perfectly good reason for being murdered and where the most powerful man in the mercenarium is also the richest. Before being retconned into an "expand or die" society, the Tyrek were an imperialist and expansionist power whose population get complacent if their empire is not expanding though conquest fast enough for their liking. To the point where the Tyrek Emperor would declare war just for the prospect of new territory to appease his people for a bit. | |

The various incarnations of the Church of Spode believe their heads of state are chosen by The Messengers, angels who serve the omnipotent Dei'Nar.

Conspicuous Consumption: Falrik Zaarkhun was very prone to this, what with the Iron Fist's interior being plated in gold. Depending on the story the Draconid Imperium appears to be either this or Simple, yet Opulent. Played with by the Sons of Hedon before their change in loyalty: whose armour, weapons and fortifications were infamously gaudy and smothered in gold. Their visual opulance had nothing to do with apparent wealth, they simply enjoyed living in such opulence due to the warped tastes of their dynast, the "anything I want I get" treatment of Drakodominatus Overseers and were one of the favoured Overseer legions of the Tyrant. | |

| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_f2fe5ff8 | comment |
Master Race: Dominatus, although only numbering a million, believe they are the master race, with super intelligence and super strength to boot. The Wranploer also used to see themselves as this. The Basileus are more blatant at it as while the Galactic Empire preaches that life in Cyrannus is superior to the life forms of the "Outer Gigaquadrant" (with one or two exceptions), with the Capricynae perhaps a step up, the Basileus consider themselves superior to other Capricynae. Downplayed with the Draconis, smug bastards as they are. Although they will look down on those without a lineage from the Crown Worlds, "Draconis" is actually more of a mantle held by a mix of species that share values and the top spot of the social pyramid. It's possible to become one but a rare thing to hear about. | |

Sufficiently Advanced Alien | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_f7b32015 | comment |
Sufficiently Advanced Alien: Varies: A lot of stories involve empires that are comparable to each other while some stories (such as the Asgord Genocide or the Second Borealis Galactic War) have the protagonists squaring off against technology they may have trouble understanding at the best of times and at the very worst it is completely beyond their comprehension. | |

Ungovernable Galaxy | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_f995429b | comment |
Ungovernable Galaxy: Most galaxies in the setting will have a sizable chunk of their space either unexplored and a haven for pirates or occupied by a rival to the primary superpower. Played very straight with the Cyrannus Galaxy in the last few decades: The Galactic Empire of Cyrannus defied this for a time, but a successor to the Old Republic emerged and managed to secure a solid third of the galaxy including a chunk of the core in as little as four years. Exaggerated for a long time with the Borealis Galaxy: No matter what was done by the Zoles Imperium, most of the galaxy was overrun with marauders, doomsday cultists and pirates. That was until the Forces of Order offed Falrik Zaarkhun and General Volim, undisputed leaders of the criminal underworld. Justified with the Andromeda Galaxy. Although the Highlords represented the bulk of space in the Pan-Andromedan Ecumene, getting anything done often involved gaining majority support from the more numerous Council of Lords, who represented the hundreds of other nations under the banner. Large chunks of Andromeda are also inaccessible due to hostile occupation. Both the Dominion of the Xhodocto and the Vartekian Empire claim entire segmenta to themselves so at best the Ecumene has a tenuous hold beyond the inner rim. | |

Running Gag | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: To lighten the often miserable tone, there are a few running jokes going around. Hachiman can't seem to get very far without tripping over his own feet and hitting something. In the story Distant Planet, him trying to speak with the indigenous life always results in him either being poked or thrown about. Kalcedia has trouble discerning between sexual innuendo and normal speech. Kezoreg often makes either rude or immature comments, they're either blanked or he gets a mean stare. Mortikran, a 4-metre tall sharkman and his fetish for mammals. Sollow, being dead and having an advanced healing factor, was quite abusive to his own body, one time going as far as stabbing one of his own knives into his head to signify how much he didn't want to go somewhere. Loron are easily fooled or stumped, even the experienced leaders like Fre'kloar. Both Loron and Loron'Kikra cannot settle on which is the "copycat dumbo". Fights between Loron characters and their 'Kikra clones often devolve into a mix of fighting and even more insulting than normal. The IRC channel has its own series of running gags. Including: Kalcenia Myran approving of anything even remotely sexual. Xhodocto characters often like to express their rage at something recent, often when it involves something cheerful or pleasant. Banter between characters often involves on giving an order, and another resisting along the lines of "fight me!" or telling them to go away. | |

Beware the Nice Ones | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_fccd06b6 | comment |
Beware the Nice Ones: After Admiral Kaios rescued Alessia Ultanos from a mix of slavery and torture, out of horror at what he'd done - he normally feels nothing about it, Uriel Ultanos is so furious he almost crushes the head slaver's neck in his hand. Horders are a race of Gentle Giant creatures who never attack first. They are also the strongest race on the Brood of War. Angering one causes it to go on an Unstoppable Rage, which even the Zazane have difficult controlling. | |

Skyward Scream | |

After Volkarus was crippled in a fight against Tyraz, his first act upon realising how much he had been deformed was to scream out Tyraz's name Kirk-style. | |

Dark and Troubled Past | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Dark and Troubled Past: Extremely common as a backstory. For example, Falrik Zaarkhun's villainy was caused by him being mistreated by his poor mother and later barely escaping the government when they decided to genocide the poor population. | |

Stronger with Age | |
| SporeWiki Fiction Universe / int_ff7c3bb0 | comment |
Stronger with Age: As Loron get older, they get bigger and grow new features such as harder skin and wings. Levarcor and Zi-Jittoram grow continuously in size, strength and intelligence thoughout their lives, with elders becoming nightmarishly powerful. Being a reincarnation of an evil god, Kithworto's potency with life and death energy increases continuously as he gets older. Since his current incarnation is older than the universe thanks to spending untold billions of years wandering though Hell, the only things that genuinely threatened him are the Xhodocto themselves or a demon trying to take over his mind. The potency of an Eloa'Nar's ability to warp reality increases exponentially as they age, with truly ancient Nars such as Divin-Ra being capable of completely replacing the known rules of reality in any given area with their own with their presence alone. | |
