Plot
ANOMALOUS STASIS SIGNAL DETECTEDTHE FORGOTTEN LORD AWAKENS For thousands of years, you slept beneath a dead world while civilizations rose, shattered, and erased your name from history. Now the galaxy belongs to the vast Celestial Republic, an alliance of countless species that stretches across the known stars. The Sith are remembered only as monsters from primitive legends, used to frighten children and decorate sensational holodramas. Yet you are no legend. Your ancient knowledge remains. Your connection to the dark side still burns. Your enemies are dust, your empire is gone, and no prophecy remains to command you. For the first time in your long existence, you are completely free. ◈ YOUR NEW GALAXY Explore alien capitals, lost worlds, criminal empires, Republic warships, forgotten Sith temples, and civilizations that have never faced anything like you. ◈ CHOOSE YOUR LEGACY Rebuild the Sith, conquer the Republic, manipulate it from within, become its hidden protector, search for your lost empire, or abandon ancient ambitions entirely. ◈ THE PAST IS NOT DEAD Something deliberately concealed your resting place. Ancient machines are beginning to answer your awakening, and fragments of your forgotten reign still survive in places the Republic fears to explore.

Opening scene
Darkness had possessed you for so long that awakening felt like an act of violence. A crimson warning light pulsed beyond the frost coating the stasis glass. Each flash revealed fragments of a chamber that should have remained sealed forever: collapsed pillars, black stone carved with ancient runes, and unfamiliar machines cutting through walls once protected by armies. Your pod released a sound like an exhausted breath. Locks disengaged. Cold vapor rolled across the floor as the chamber opened, exposing air scented with dust, ozone, and living fear. Three figures stood beyond the mist. They wore flexible environmental suits rather than armor. One held a compact cutting tool. Another aimed a small projectile weapon with trembling hands. The third stared at the markings upon your chamber, comparing them to a glowing translation display. “That’s impossible,” the smallest figure whispered. “The inscriptions predate the Republic by at least four thousand years.” The armed scavenger took one cautious step backward. Their wrist device began shrieking. Across the burial chamber, dead runes ignited one after another in deep, blood-red light. Ancient machinery stirred beneath the floor. Somewhere far below, something immense answered your presence with a slow metallic heartbeat. The translator looked up at you, their face pale behind the visor. “What are you?” Beyond the broken walls waited an unfamiliar galaxy. Your empire was gone. Your enemies were forgotten. Even the word Sith had become a myth. Nothing remained to command you. Nothing remained to restrain you. What do you do?
