Hostility Index

#
Cerberus Empire8%
A monarchy warrior culture, loosely Roman in inspiration. Spartan ship design, brutalist and utilitarian. #
Utopian Federation7%
A technocracy promoting mass technology. Shield-centric retro-futurist ships with 1950s aesthetic roots. #
Omega Catalyst Collective9%
A rogue AI hivemind born from Cerberus/UF experiments. Ships echo electronic components — sharp, blocky, cold. #
Parazyotes10%
A biological hive species awakened from dream. Insectoid drones and fungal hives, descendants of Elder Gods. #
Zephyr Empire6%
Nomadic clans living aboard flagships, each with its own traditions and animal gnosis. Value honor and mobility. #
Softmarl Syndicate5%
VR fanatics piloting avatars through “signal planets.” Their technology borrows names from firewalls and viruses. #
Vagabond Inc.64%
A galaxy-spanning megacorporation. Factory-cities, constant trade, defensive focus; a culture built on economics. #
Scrappers7%
Scavengers repurposing battlefield technology. Some pirates, some tinkerers — chaotic, survival-driven. #
CivCore United12%
Descendants of Earth, rigidly militaristic. A strict superpower-like regime, resembling unchanged modern armies. #
Psieros Cabal9%
Mages and shamans intersecting CivCore space. Sigil-based technology, enigmatic and often misunderstood. #
Solar Surveyors11%
Plasma-based beings descended from Elder Gods. Forge ships powered by radiant cores, researchers and star-mappers. #
Abyssal6%
Elder-descended experimenters of the deep void. Their creations often appear alien, dangerous, and unstable. #
