Sunrize Lore
Humans have grasped the stars. They have become an intergalactic species, colonizing dozens of systems. This leap in progress is spearheaded by mega corporations, who lay claim to these newfound frontiers, constructing towering empires and draining newfound planets of their vast resources. One such corporation stands tall above the rest, the economic giant called RIZE Corp.
RIZE Corp. is a monolith among the mega corporations, cornering the market in almost every aspect. Their technology seems to be decades ahead of their would-be competition. Their most recent development staggered the galaxy; Project: RIZER, a line of proprietary war machines that stand as tall as sky-scrapers, and destroy a city block in just a moment. Of course, after this invention, many other companies were bought up by RIZE Corp.
Supply is nothing without demand, however, so RIZE Corp. has incentivized other mega corporations to purchase these mechs by sending out caches of their unreleased technology to remote, inhospitable locations across the galaxy. These RIZERs, uncoincidentally, are primed for exploring such locations, as well as being more than capable of dispatching any obstacles that may stand in their way.
With agonizing slowness, RIZE Corp trickled out these chilling novelties – barely fifty units upon the product’s first unveiling. Now, just under one thousand RIZERs stalk the universe, leaving a trail of awe and terror in their wake. To terrified onlookers, they're death made manifest: sentient, devastatingly powerful, and utterly alien. Their destructive potential hangs heavy in the air, a stark contrast to the unsettling innocence that clings to them.
The nature of RIZERs are a closely guarded secret. Most believe them to be mere machines, but a select few have glimpsed the baffling reality – a biology that defies categorization, a horrifying blend of advanced circuitry and sentient fungi- Mechanite Technology. Eerie and unfathomable, the RIZERS are strangers to the social bonds that define humanity, and to the monetary bonds that see them exchanged. Their very existence is an ironic hypocrisy: created only to destroy one another, blissfully unaware of their own loneliness, a concept only challenged by their interaction with those unfortunate enough to pilot them.
The core set of Rizers consist of:
The OBSIDIAN KNIGHT, an emergent legend, shrouded in Starlight and Mystery. CALIBER is a RIZER of overwhelming power, it’s dark silhouette striking fear into the hearts of those who might do her pilot harm. Shield your eyes, their path to the top burns brighter than the stars.
FIDELITY remains a shining beacon on any battlefield. A stalwart wall that defends his allies, and daunts any foes foolish enough to approach. It matters not how long corporate war rages in the stars, The CRYBABY SHI will always stand firm.
An old hound, survivor of a hundred battlefields. Alpha's aging engines roar with thunderous hunger, clawing it's way to victory by any means, suffering any blow to tear it's prey to shreds. This RIZER is horrifying, and unrelenting, the NIGHT TERROR from which you cannot wake.
FUSCHIA zips through the battlefield, a blur of amethyst fury. A silent death that strikes without warning and leaves just as swiftly. The OWL’S KISS transforms a battlefield into a hit-and-run hailstorm. Lose sight of her in an instant and lose your life even faster. Pray she catches your eye, or Prey you will become.
The unlucky few who wield these colossal beings as if they were weapons. Undergoing intensive surgeries to interface with RIZERs, oblivious to the depth of the connection made every time they Plug-In. They are Celebrities, Insurgents, Mercenaries and Cutthroats. Fighting and Dying in the orbit of foreign stars. All pawns in the proxy-wars of the corporations that pit them against one another.
Cal is a rising star whose name is spreading like wildfire across every network in human-controlled space. He's is skilled, cunning, and a sight to behold every time the OBSIDIAN KNIGHT shows up On-Stream. He pilots CALIBER like he's got nothing to lose, barreling towards every challenge that comes their way with seemingly reckless abandon. Many say the fame is getting to his head—that this rising star will go supernova soon enough, but he's had to shine bright his whole life, and doesn't plan on burning out any time soon.
Strong in ways most are envious of, Lili is a RIZER pilot disinterested in personal glory, money or celebrity. Her and her family are soldiers for hire on the front lines of corporate war, and first to hear tell of its maledictions. Many days, she would rather not pilot Fidelity at all- but people far too important to her rely on them both far too much. So when Xuan Wu calls, bearing the choral agonies of war from distant stars, so answers the CRYBABY SHI.
This old dog is a pilot from a generation past. He has lived an entire life at the end of RIZE Corps leash. Blinded and Docile. A Sheep in a mask, made to dance like a Wolf. set loose upon the galaxy at the Corporation’s whim. They told this wolf to swallow the sun, but as it burned his mouth, only then could he See. And look what it cost him.
Now they’re gonna Put him Down. Now They’re gonna Shut him Up.
By Any Means Necessary.
A violent booster gang has reached new infamy in the far sectors of human space: The S.I.G [Special Interest Group]. A silent parliament lurking in the void, recently taken over by one Tsula—a ruthless outlaw brimming with potential. A DEVAS transport fleet was picked clean at her command, a state-of-the art RIZER scavenged for her efforts. Unhoned talent cut across her tongue. Victory tastes of metal and blood. The Cutthroat now owns an engine of war, and they are the OWL’S KISS. Pray they do not speak your name, lest it be the last time it is ever heard.
Gambits are special actions that your Pilot can perform to massively alter the game-state, each one is unique in its capabilities, but each comes with a cost. Balance risk and reward with these astonishing maneuvers.
