[i][color=lightgray]We dug up the body of a dead god today.

The boys were runnin' low on steam before this. We've been huntin' on this damned rock for months, and all we had to show for it was some broken pottery and cave paintings. Millions of credits and hundreds of hours of research and preparation and the expedition turns out like this? They were just about ready to stick an ice pick through my frontal lobe for it.

But now the whole camp's celebratin' so loudly that nobody can get any sleep. We finally found him: Wodos, the Underbound. They said he forged this solar system on his anvil, and he fashioned the sun from the embers of his forge. Its a wonder somebody that powerful managed to get gutted; its only a matter'a time before we know how he ate it, though, 'cause our crew's the best in the galaxy.

I'm attachin' a couple'a picts to this file, just so ya know I'm not bullshittin' you. Should be proof enough that my theory was correct. If I'm gonna get to the bottom of this, I'm gonna need more men and hardware sent my way. It'll cost us, but I'm tellin' you, sir, it'll be worth it. I'll update ya in a week's time on what we find out.

[color=lightgray][i]Adohim: Dead Gods[/i] takes place in the Adohim Galaxy in the year 1520 PMD, one thousand, five hundred and twenty years after the Pantheon died. All knowledge of the gods prior to their death was erased from galactic memory by unknown means; every computer file, book, and scrap of paper about their existence was somehow destroyed. All that remains are the stories passed down from the lips of those that walked among them, and the handful of ancient paintings and sculptures that depict them. Most believe the godfolk to be objects of myth; mere stories created by their ancestors to explain that which the science of the time could not.

A few know better, however.

It started out as the childhood fascination of a boy with an overactive imagination. He dreamed of worlds being crafted in the hands of giants, and of titans that could change space and time with but a word. Those dreams stayed with that boy as he became a man, and once he had gathered to himself a great deal of wealth and power, he set out to prove them to be true. Aris O'Russ, once a prominent marine in the Artifel Defense Force, turned to a life of academia as he went on his foolhardy quest to prove the existence of fairy tales and visions. Most thought him a madman.

Until he discovered the Underbound's tomb in the depths of Cratix-5 and promptly vanished, giving his ravings a frightening degree of legitimacy. His sponsors in ArCo Inc, one of Adohim's largest megacorporations, have started a mad scramble to get to Cratix-5, ascertain O'Russ's fate, and retrieve whatever research he may have left behind.
