[sub][h2]Prologue[/h2][/sub]
As mankind began to spend more time in space it became noticed that certain individuals developed various powers once they moved beyond our home world. They could use the presence of invisible, intangible dark matter to fuel powerful abilities in what could only be called magic. These mages also had the ability to move this dark matter around and ever take limited amounts back to earth with them.

The use of this power source enable a period of rapid, almost effortless expansion that eventually lead to humanity looking beyond our solar system. A massive ship, the Sagittarius, was constructed by every nation working together and crewed by the greatest mages of the generation. At the edge of the solar system, well past even the most remote human settlements, they worked the largest, most complex spell that had ever been attempted.

And then, when they should have shot off towards their destination at the speed of light they vanished. Without a trace. After three years without contact and no traces of debris being detected the project was deemed a failure. What followed was a period of mutual distrust between all of the various factions of humanity.

Since then another, slower method was devised that was more successful. Travel to other stars takes weeks instead of hours and thus far no sign has been seen of the lost ship.

[sub][h2]Premise[/h2][/sub]
This roleplay takes place largely in the Outer Planets Alliance, a loosely allied group of smaller stations and settlements on and around the moons of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. 

[sub][h2]Characters[/h2][/sub]
Because almost all of the older, more experience mages disappeared with the Sagittarius the characters will largely be under the age of twenty. They should also originate from one of the moons of the outer planets.

[sub][h2]Magic[/h2][/sub]
Magic is largely a reflection of the users imagination. The visual form it takes and the applications that work best depend on how the mage focuses their mind. From a classical mage to a paladin invoking the will of god, anything is possible.
