You have been called upon by the Federation Space Academy to pilot an experimental ship called the Advent on a Top Secret mission.  What starts out as a routine investigation quickly turns into a battle to save the universe from ultimate destruction at the writhing tentacles of a mysterious, new enemy!

The Federation Space Academy (FSA) are the upholders, defenders, and maintainers of justice for the known universe.  The FSA also acts as a parent government for the 347 charted regions of the universe, overseeing, assisting, and correcting governmental issues that arise in the smaller regional governments.

The governing body of the FSA is referred to as FSA High Command.  High Command is comprised of 917 different races, one or more being from each of the 347 charted regions of the universe.  All major decisions must pass through High Command and be approved by unanimous vote.  Minor decisions are allowed to be decided by the individual race's group of representatives.
