Imesken Alliance

Over 30,000 years before the formation of the The League, there existed a vast multi-racial interstellar empire known as the Imesken Alliance.

However, the Imesken Alliance came to a bloody and devastating end. The Alliance's homeworld of Imeska was claimed in a apocalyptic explosion of unidentified cause.

Culture
Knowledge of the Imeskeni culture is unknown and oft prone to speculation. Common testimonies state that they were once a sophisticated people, driven by science and reason. They had no gods, no philosophies save for personal ones, and their mastery of the natural sciences was unparalleled.

Their architecture is one of the few things to survive the fall, centered mostly around the capitals of what were once colonies of the Alliance. The fact that they stand tall today with absolutely no need for maintenance is testimony to their engineering prowess. Human cities are often laid out as they once were, imitating the original designs for the ancient colonies. The ancients prized stonework, and built the majority of their cities from stone, a tradition that survived into the modern era.

The Cathedral of the Divine was originally a library constructed by the Imeskeni to rival the libraries back home. The information found within is heralded largely as the progenitor to the Divine Light.

Geography
Very little is known of the geographical make-up of the Imeska homeworld. Where it once stood is now only a massive aether storm of tremendous power. This storm, known as the Raging Tempest, obscures any attempts to investigate what remains of the Imesken luminary. A few intrepid explorers have attempted to map out parts of the system, but few if any have returned.

Technology

Imesken technology as it was described in blueprints was supremely advanced. Intricate machines and complex mechanisms formed the basis of all their technology. Clockwork and steam engineering were second-to-none. They once possessed mighty airships that plied the open skies, and massive yachts that carved through Wildspace.

Most of it did not survive the apocalypse. Those few items that did were mostly weapons and armors; simple things made from unknown alloys that never dull nor need repair. These artifacts have mostly found their way into the hands of wealthy collectors, noblemen, and kings looking to cement their right to rule.
