X-Genesis Organization in Kingsmaker | World Anvil

X-Genesis

The architects behind the age of ignorance

"We saw Prius at its worst!
The government is corrupted!
The judicial system is favouring criminality over the law.
People get openly assaulted and taken advantage of.
People vanish from the face of Prius never to be seen again.
And is anybody doing anything?
Are the gods doing anything?
No!
The gods are openly supporting the misery that is our current situation!
We, X-Genesis are new generation divinity with the drive necessary to set things right once and for all!
Follow us and take part in the biggest revolution since forever.
The age of gods comes to a closure, long live the dawn of the people!"

Vigor, child of creation
  X-Genesis was an organisation, that got created by the new demigod Justitia after experiencing what happened after her death as mortal. Realizing how corrupt the world really was and that even the gods, who gave the born slave a second chance, actively supported her and many others misery, she gathered her brothers and sisters of the new generation of mechanical gods to plan out a multi-step masterplan to take out the gods giving Prius the second chance it never got.  

Step 1: Banishing the Gods (1AS - 5 AS)

"We have to stay undercover to be successful.
Luring in all gods with dedicated groupings into Notitia's ingenious traps trapping all of them at once.
If our timing is off, we risk igniting the wrath of the overlords. One chance, 36 targets.
And remember!
We need them alive but out of action.
The gods are such inwoven with the very fabric of existence, that even erasing one of them could mean the end of all that is. ...
Don't get carried away by your feelings of betrayal, Justitia.
Good luck!"

  The first and only official step, the rest of the Sect was aware of, was the imprisonment of their oppressors.
Initially, the plan was to erase their creators out of existence, but the research of Notitia and Terminus convinced Justitia to alter her bloody plan.
In secret Notitia and her team developed a way to contain even gods; the Cocoon of Eternity. The plan was a full success using the ignorance of the divines to set up the traps under their very eyes luring them then into the cocoons' zones after X-Genesis gave in 5 AS the silent signal to advance to the final step. The gods went down without any issues and the planet was finally free of their influence.  

Step 2: The erasure War (7 AS - 44 AS)

"The gods might be gone, but them missing caused foreseeable power vacuums.
Our work is not done simply freeing the people.
These devils got completely and fully corrupted, and that to an irredeemable state.
Just take a look at what they have done with the Arcadian society.
Gruesome and ruthless demons taking advantage of the now unguided.
It drives me sick!
I hoped we could evade step 2, but we have to get rid of them all!
Tabula Rasa!
A new beginning!

Justitia, Judge of the world
  The erasure War ... a dark chapter in the lost history of Prius.
X-Genesis got rid of all its followers and reverted to the original four Eternals.
Using their still present divine influence, they convinced all Arcadian species to support their siege against all mortals overwhelming the corrupted mortals one by one leaving only those alive, that had a clean record.
Everybody on the planet got judged by X-Genesis and deemed worthy or unworthy to be the base of the next generation.
Slowly taking control over the entire world proving their superiority, again and again, eventually even the toughest mortal kingdoms fell prey to the wrath of the Eternals.
Justitia and Vigor held large scale processions judging and executing the bad mortals in so-called Blood Trials.

Over the course of 30 years, the population of Prius got reduced to a mere couple million frightened individuals scarred by what happened to the world.
With such a small count remaining, it was possible for Notitia to give each of them a clean memory wipe using collected experimental tech of the world-war secluding afterwards the now cleansed and reset population to the country of Scorzosa.

X-Genesis gave the Arcadians supporting them to the very end of the all-out war clear commands to direct repopulation keeping a keen eye on their awareness regarding what happened in the last 40 years.  

Step 2.5: Preserving History (12 AS - 44 AS)

Tabula Rasa could only get achieved by taking away everything from the mortals.
Their scientific accomplishments, their history;
and especially their awareness regarding the old gods.
Terminus got tasked with guiding the ongoing search and destruction of knowledge.
His task was to erase everything from history, especially everything regarding them.

X-Genesis desired a clean slate to let the mortals start anew and as history had too many examples on how to do it the wrong way keeping it alive or even altered could be a risk.

Being a time guardian of Aetas Terminus started a private project evading the bloodshed happening on Prius. Rather than destroying all that was, he sent the gathered knowledge up to Konesans, his moon-sized brain orbiting the planet. His duty as guardian was to preserve history, and to not anger his siblings he stored the last bastion of knowledge inside his very brain founding, what got later called by the Silent Watchers the "Pool of knowledge".

With his work finished and Notitia's collective memory wipes on the remaining population of the world, Prius was readied for the next step of 'Tabula Rasa' in 44 AS.
"My mechanical heart can't stop bleeding witnessing what my siblings are currently doing to the world I learned to love so much.
I experienced through the time-travels with my master more than anybody else about our history, and I still see the planet as redeemable.
But my orders are different.
My master advised me to not interfere with the current massacre, as it was the only possible timeline not ending in absolute darkness.
If I stop them or stop guiding their hot-headed actions, Prius, no, the whole universe will be doomed.
The least I can do to avoid the unavoidable is to be the last bastion of knowledge, keeping the history of the world alive in my datastreams.
And the history of our failings.
...

Step 3: The age of Ignorance (44 AS - 400 AS)

With the completion of phase 2, X-Genesis disbanded and vanished from the face of the now known world.
They monitored the slow development of the survivors through the generations giving them controlled assistance to quicken their development from stone-age like all the way to them finally advancing to a state comparable to antiquity.
The Eternals looked carefully at traces of them remembering events prior to the 'Void era' letting those vanish, who was able to break the wipe.

In 400 AS, after 100 years of no incident, the Eternals finally returned, claiming to be survivors out of the Void era wanting to help the people to rebuild what was lost. They filled the gap behind the reason of the Void era with blaming the nature god 'Ifrit' for burning the planet to a crisp taking vengeance on Prius' ignorance
"Prius made the mistake to reach to close to the sun.
We burned ourselves angering Ifrit. She burned everything and everyone, only we were able to survive...heavily damaged.

Vigor

Vigor, god of war by Soulwing98
Slayer of the world

Vigor was a supporter of Justitia's gruesome plans up until he was the one leading a massacre against those, who couldn't even scratch him anymore.
Suffering from mental traumata and nearly turning against Justitia on multiple occasions, Justitia ordered Notitia to regularly reset her brother's short term memory chip.

Billions of people fell to his arsenal, but he wasn't aware of any of his victims thinking their blood wasn't sticking to his frame.

Justitia

Justitia, goddess of Law and Order cover
Justitia, goddess of Law and Order by Soulwing98
Judge of the world

Justitia was the heartless leader of
X-Genesis. She was the one deciding, that Prius was irredeemable changing Step 2 from a peaceful slow conversion into an all-out world war.

Her intentions were noble and she went through with it to the very end keeping her morals and perseverance up.

Notitia

Notitia, goddess of science by Soulwing98
Architect of the world

The whole operation of X-Genesis was only possible through Notitia's superior brain and wit ... and control over Justitia's temper.

Step 1?
Impossible without her.

Step 2?
Her unparallel technical affinity gave them the edge against every enemy they faced.

Step 3?
She directed every last step of what came after it organizing with Terminus the first centuries of the new world.

Terminus

Terminus the Omniscient by Soulwing98
Preserver of the world

The last addition to the core team.
He joined them to abuse what he learned as a time guardian supporting his siblings' plans of a fresh start.
It was due to his superior surveilling abilities, that they were able to scour the world erasing every trace of its former history.
Furthermore he guided his siblings through the process of rebuilding the world out of the ash they caused.

Without his careful and punctuated assistance, a second purge would have been necessary with them returning too soon into the light.
