The year, 4079 AD, and a message has been sent out across the galaxy, a message that shook the galaxy to its core.
“The Hierarchy has fallen! I repeat the Hierarchy has fallen!”
The Galactic Hierarchy, a great and powerful empire spanning the galaxy. In this body people and entire civilizations seized power through complex political, military, and economic games with little defined rules. Long the force of stabilization and peace in the galaxy, the Hierarchy had fought off extra- galactic invaders, monsters from other dimensions and every threat that came against them. To all it seemed the hierarchy was invincible, but now it has fallen not to an outside threat but to the machinations of its own people. The year is now 4173 AD and in the century since the collapse of the hierarchy people all over the galaxy have been left to their own devices. Prospective Empires have risen and fallen, a few people have even occasionally gained power enough to fix the galaxy, only to be assassinated at the height of their power. The only rules in this galaxy are the ones that can be enforced and the only constant in this chaotic free for all of a galaxy is that those who hold Super-Tech are the galactic power players. Monumentally powerful pieces of technology, be it a battleship of immense military might, an exosuit allowing for individual space flight, or a seemingly normal object granting its user strange extra-dimensional abilities, Super-Tech is the relics of an age gone by, the greatest achievements of the once great hierarchy and all the other ancient civilizations before them, some of whom fell millions of years ago. You have found a Super-Tech relic, who are you and what will you do with it?
Rules/Info:
-Your relic can be nearly anything, a ship, a device, a super serum, a weapon, a suit, a seemingly normal item like a bracelet or a ring or even a handkerchief.
-These aren’t just relics from the Hierarchy, they may also be relics of the many precursor civilizations before them who had strange and esoteric technologies.
-You may take any powers for your Super-Tech except Omni, absolute, almighty, ascendance, ascendant, adaptive, transcendence, transcendent, meta, perfection, Arsenal, defiance, unlosability, path to victory, power/ability replication/absorption/learning/mastering/transcendence/manipulation/creation/destruction/immunity, or any growth/development/improving/augmenting type abilities. No omnipotent/nigh-omnipotent powers/abilities, actually be creative
-Remember, these are ancient relics from long ago, they have had many users before you and will have many after you. No relics can make the user completely immortal, very hard to kill but not completely immortal. Nor can they be fused with you unless their singular purpose is to download your mind into for example machines but otherwise useless.
-Supernatural/non-scientific powers are fine here. The galaxy is full of mysteries, and who is to say that magic did not used to be practiced by ancient civilizations, who is to say magic and the supernatural is not real and has simply been forgotten by the races of the galaxy only to pop back up again and again when someone finds a relic of the old precursor magic races.
-There are many organizations in the galaxy, from criminal syndicates, small bands of mercenaries, single planet colonies trying to survive, “empires” covering a few dozen star systems trying to gain enough power to begin conquering the trillions of systems in our galaxy, you may be aligned with any or none them if you wish
-Super-Tech is powerful, but non-Super-Tech people are still a potential threat. There are many super-geniuses in the galaxy, many empires who will send whole fleets of ships to try to seize your Super-Tech, criminal syndicates who will try to blackmail or even assassinate you, don’t underestimate the people of the galaxy.
-There have been and there are many Super-Tech holders in the galaxy. No matter what your relic is there will be stiff and deadly competition, slip up, show weakness when you shouldn’t have, relax for a second when in conflict with them and they will destroy you.
