'''Mir''' is a planet within a pocket dimension in the [[Gold Sector]]. It alongside it's Star, Monolit emerged in the sector after the eponymous "Monolith Event" which in R2018 wiped the entire region clean of all other stars, planets, celestial bodies, and in turn, all other life.  While the planet and it's star exist in the sector, their physical location is unknown. Strange and powerful forces have successfuly kept the planet hidden from outside interference. And all travel to and from the planet is managed by a network of proxy portals.
  
The '''Monolith Realm''',  also referred to as the '''Monolith Battleplates''' is a large [[Plate World]] Grouping  that was born from a [[Resonance cascade]] during the [[Ragnablok]] event. In the [[Galaxia Nehellenium]] region known as the [[Gold Sector]] had experienced perpetual brutal war at a far higher scale than was normal for the already chaotic Galaxy. Meanwhile, mad scientists had been secretley tampering with the very fabric of reality, and unknowingly ripped a tear in the Multiverse that created a large crystaline entity that would later come to be known as the [[Monolith]]. As it attempted to escape to what became the Baseplate Dimension, The Monolith destroyed most of the sector reemerged in the Baseplate Dimension, Poisoning a large portion of it, turning them into what is known as the Monolith Battleplates
+
While Mir's existence appears to be of artificial or intelligent design, the planet itself is plagued by a massive ecological disaster in the form of radioactive energy crystal infestations, not to mention the damage done by it's inhabitants through the course of several surface conflicts.
 
 
The Monolith Plates were notable for the highly advanced and mysterious Lazarus Gate Network, a Magik-Teknological system that provided both teleportation and functional Immortality up until R.2020 when it more or less crashed beyond repair.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
=Origin=
 
In the waning days of R2018, when the events of the Ragnablok began to unfold. A massive [[Resonance cascade]] Caused by a magikal crystal, wiped out the [[Gold Sector]]. Erasing it from the the [[Galaxia Nehellenium]], the occurance puzzled minifigs of the galaxy for months, but were too busy with their own battles to care for too long. Eventually it was realized that a new world in an alternate dimension had been created. This new dimension became known as the Monolith Realm, a realm full of seperate baseplates linked together by portals and seperated by void space. 
 
 
 
=Timeline of Events=
 
 
 
By the time of [[Ragnablok]], the Monolith realm had already existed for eons,  Time moves much faster within the realm.  Much recorded history of the realm had been forgotten by the time of R2019.
 
  
What events and eras that have been recorded, have been divided into Four periods
 
==Elder Civilization & the First Alliance==
 
'''???-R2018'''
 
  
Prior to the events on Basil, ''Which is generally considered to be the start of the current period in the realm''. There existed a grand civilization of the Elders that spanned across the realm. The Elders were masters of Magik, Machines and the Mind. Combining their knowledge into teknological wonders. They built small towns and cities out of white and gold. Powered by powerful Neon generators, Amethyst teleport stations. Tibinium matter fabricators and the crown jewel of them all, the Lazarus Network.  Which allowed anyone who died, to transfer their soul to a newly grown body and be brought to a location of their choosing through the Teleport stations. In truth, the Lazarus Network had existed before the Elders, and was created by the [[Monolith]]
+
=Timeline=
  
The Elder Civilization had forced the obedience of several beastfig races like the Avians and Canids.  Sometime near R2018 the people known as [[Minifig]]s had begun to spread across the realm. They were similar to the Elders in appearance, but did not possess the magikal powers they did.
 
  
Minifig civilization experienced a population explosion, and had reached a point where the Elders were vastly outnumbered across the Realm.  Elder Cities largely folded or merged with Minifig cities during the unification of the First Alliance. The achievements and advances of the Elders would largely become shared with the other peoples of the realm as a result

==The fall of the First Alliance==
 
'''Q1, R2019'''
 
 
 
The First Alliance was a loosely aligned civilizaiton of different peoples across the realm.  Operating under the guidance and cooperation of the Anwar Administration, a form of ruling government created by the Elders
 
 
 
Over the eras the Alliance began to fall apart from corruption as well as the machinations of other powers. As the influence of both the Alliance and Anwar wanted, new groups like the [[Imperiya]] and the [[Stroiteliga Bratva]] began to rise.  Eventually after multiple bloody wars with violent groups like the Black Legion and Vorhut Order, the Alliance disbanded and many of it's members retired. The rest would either join the Various police units in the Alpha plates, work for the Anwar Administrators, or they joined another faction
 
 
 
The spark of the first war between the Stroiteliga and Imperiya marked the end of the Alliance's ability to maintain peace in the realm, and therefore, it lose all legitimacy and relevance. The vast majority of them defected to other locations. Today the First Alliance still exists, but as a shadow of it's former self.  Reduced to little more than holdouts in remote locations. Their time in the spotlight is long passed.
 
 
 
==Stroiteliga-Imperiya wars==
 
'''Q2, R2019'''
 
With the collapse of the First Alliance, chaos began to spread across the Realm. The Anwar Elders had attempted to maintain the peace by other means, namely by creating [[OSKOM]], a police force that answered directley to them, but elsewhere. Far larger and more capable groups of Minifigs were gearing up for a bloodletting. Long periods of mismanagement and ignorance by both the Anwar Elders and the First Alliance had allowed the creation of many other groups just as powerful and dangerous as the wretched Black Legion.
 
 
 
Immediately following the disintegration of the Old Alliance,  The two largest breakaway factions began fighting each other across much of the eastern realm.  The Imperiya and Stroiteliga Bratva ruined a number of towns and cities in their brutal fighting. The smaller Bratva inflicted some humiliating defeats against the Imperiya, but at tremendous cost. Towards the end of the bulk of fighting, The Imperiya captured and imprisoned the leader of the Bratva, Lenskiy. Leaving his brother to take control and lead the faction.  Shortly afterwards, the majority of fighting stopped as the two sides had more or less reached a stalemate.
 
 
 
Bratva was smaller and couldn't stand up to the numerical advantage of the Imperiya for much longer,  however the Imperiya had become embroiled in multiple fights with other groups as time went on. After the realm fell into disarray as result of the Alliance disbanding, many of the Empires of the realm had briefly agreed to return to the status quo of Oversight by the Elders at Anwar. And thus peace returned for a time...
 
 
 
===Destruction of Basil & the Anwar Incident===
 
 
 
The last major conflict of the period was actually between the Bratva and Black Legion.  Coming to a head at the battle of [[Basil]] which started over the discovery of an artifakt. The two empires, both clad in black armor and driving black tanks would come to blows. The Bratva defeated both the Legion and the overzealous [[Vorhut]] who had started attacking everyone in the region. Securing the region for themselves, but it was not to last.  Petty violence between neighbors in Basil escalated into a melee between dozens of different groups.  When the Imperiya carpet bombed the plate, pissing off everyone.  They convened an emergency meeting of the minds in Anwar, the closest thing the Realm had to a neutral ground.  But it was ambushed and destroyed by the Black Legion.  Who immediately following it's destruction, Obliterated the entire Basil plate, salty that they had earlier lost a battle there. The last remnants of Anwar Council attempted to stop the Legion, but were wiped out and their leaders killed. Never before had anyone displayed the capability to obliterate entire plate worlds like what had happened to Anwar and Basil.
 
 
 
The Legion then focused on Bratva, First coaxing a number of unaffiliated mercenaries to attack the Bratva training base in Isere, severley damaging it but failing to capture any of its objectives. They later attacked the base en masse with their own forces, led by Kain a Black Legion General, who had come with the intent of eliminating Vaclav.  For their repeated acts of terrorism and barbarism, The Legion had convinced the leaders of Bratva, the [[Armata|Armata Alliance]], and the [[Cordova Coalition]] to form a bulwark against them.  Most of the allies would participate in the coming battle
 
 
 
The battle would be interrupted however, as by the time the Legion had prepared to attack. The Lazarus Gates began to lag... and all bets were off

File:Anwar1.jpg|''An Emergency meeting held on Anwar by many of the factions of the Realm about the Bullying they suffered at the hands of the Imperiya, was ambushed by the evil Black Legion. They ultimately blew up the Administration tower which was a huge slap in the face to Elder rule in the realm''
 
File:Basil2.jpg|''With support from the Armata Alliance and the League, the Elders attempted to bring the leaders of the Legion to justice on Basil. They were ultimately driven into retreat as the Legion champion Kain emerged and murdered multiple elders with a dark energy weapon, at the time the only way to permanetley kill minifigs prior to the shutdown of the Lazarus network. A short battle ensued but the League and Armata forces ultimately retreated fearing for their lives.''

===The Lazarus Lag===
 
'''Q4, R2019'''
 
 
 
Sometime last Thursday, the Lazarus network began to malfunction when it showed signs of delays in reincarnating dead minifigs. Many of those affected would later report that they were stuck in a hellish purgatory that they were unable to escape. Not knowing if they were in there for hours, days or years. And when they did return they felt terrified of dying again in fear of getting stuck there again.
 
 
 
 
 
The lag lasted For about a month... And then things got much worse.
 
 
 
==The Collapse==
 
'''R2020-Present'''
 
 
 
About a month after the reports of the Gate network lagging, and Minifigs having their seemingly immortal lives disrupted and turned on their heads. One day the gates all went dark.  They came back online about an hour later.. And Minifigs went about their lives.. Using them to teleport to other hub zones without a care in the world.
 
 
 
Meanwhile, elsewhere in the Brikverse.. An unknown energy wave hit the dimension with great force. [[Ragnablok|Something significant had happened in the Multiverse]]. And Suddenley,  the system wasn't just lagging... It wasn't working at all.  The living were able to still use the system to teleport. But it was no longer producing fresh bodies for the wandering spirits... They were stuck in Purgatory. Mass panic set in while local governments and military groups attempted to protect their assets. It was discovered early on that with the lack of a functioning L-Gate system, clone bodies could still be grown in Vats if supplanted with Ultracyte.
 
 
 
With their discovery, and given the mass panic,  the strongest clamped down in a mad dash for resources, Ultracyte was now the most valuable commodity in existence. And dozens would die over a single peice of it, to give one lucky minifig a second chance if he died. Some L-Gates were destroyed by terrorists, others fiercely defended by security forces as they represented the last forms of easy transportation. The population of the plates dropped by half within two months of the crash, and the incident was by now being referred to as "The Collapse".  The realm had entered a dark age.
 
 
 
The destruction of Anwar, and the failure of the Lazarus network effectively marked the end of the time of the Elders. The few who remained were reduced to nothing but bickering jealous warlords and false gods trying to influence little pockets of the realm.

File:mbobelder.jpg|''Despite the power of the Anwar Adminstration being wiped out, Elders still attempted to carve out their own little slices of territory or control among the rest of the populace. Some banding together and others even fighting amoungst one another, or more accurately. Sending minions to their deaths on their behalf. ''
 
File:mdoublecross.jpg|''The Imperiya attempted to pressure the Moloch Vorhut under their thumb by assisting one of their Lords in a power play that saw the Leader of the Order assassinated by Imperiya Spetsnaz, The new Vorhut leader would shift the blame of the killings onto the rowdy [[Svoboda]] clan, but the whole Operation was deemed a failure by the Imperiya, for the new Molochite Phoenix mobilized a huge Army with his new power. Moloch Vorhut became a serious threat to all after this.''

===The Secret War===
 
The struggle simply referred to as the '''Secret War''' was a behind the scenes confrontation between Kast Renzo, and his Uncle, Alexander Shulga, Corrupted by the Monolith Crystal.
 
 
 
After the Second battle of Isere, Kast and Shulga became aware of each other, Kast was teleported to the Nexus where the latter revealed his connection to the Monolith Crystal as the Creator and Ruler of the Realm, and attempted to sway his nephew into his service. Disgusted at the Monolith's destruction of the [[Gold Sector]], and how Shulga had turned to pure evil. He attempted to destroy the two of them.  Nearly succeeding but being banished from the Nexus at the last moment.
 
 
 
After which, Shulga used his Avatar to send the mighty Imperiya on a manhunt across the realm for Kast, branding him as a terrorist in possession of a dangerous weapon ''which he was not''.  Kast was driven into the arms of the Stroiteliga Bratva , which he was breifly a member of. he Rejoined the group and tried to take parts of it over in the absence of both their leaders. Eventually he revealed the truth of the Monolith to people at large.  swaying a faction of Bratva supporters as well as members from several other groups in a campaign to destroy Shulga and the Monolith once and for all. 
 
 
 
The war ulitmately concluded with a temporary alliance of Imperiya and Stroiteliga heroes assaulting the Nexus. Kast killed Shulga with his own sword,  And armed with the transformed dramacron artifakt. Basil Bob sacrificed himself to destroy the Monolith. It had appeared that the universe had had enough of The Crystal's narrative black hole. And when the enemies of the Crystal attacked it.  It's plot armor was whisked away
 
 
 
===After the war===
 
At the conclusion of the Secret War. Both the Monolith and it's puppet Shulga were defeated,  The Imperial throne had been mysteriously fused with some of the power of the crystal, allowing it's owner to influence the very reality of the realm, for better or for worse.  Kast would take the throne and immediately use it to create a number of "Rules" for anyone who takes the throne to follow.  The first two rules he implimented were designated as eternal and binding. They could never be revoked or changed.
 
 
 
*The most sacred of all being that whoever takes the throne has an obligation to ensure the continued existence of the Realm, for better or worse.
 
*And second would ensure that any ruler that attempts to change, or remove a pre existing law,  would be required to abdicate upon doing so. Of course the first two laws of the realm would be protected from interference
 
 
 
Kast then used the throne to open portals between the Monolith Realm, and the Galaxia Nehellenium.  The realm would continue to remain a broken husk of it's former self. But Inhabitants, supplies and tek would be able to flow somewhat freely between the realm and the rest of the brikverse. He then immediately abdicated.  Forces of the Imperiya would immediately seize the vacant throne, but then squabble over who would take the position.
 
 
 
<gallery mode=packed heights=200px>
 
File:Mnsw.jpg|''The final battle at the Nexus, Kast defeats Shulga once and for all, and Bob uses the power of the Dramacron to sacrifice himself to destroy the Monolith, allowing the Realm to move on to a new chapter of its story''
 
File:Vostok1.jpg|''The [[Battle of Vostok]] was a particularly nasty incident which saw about a dozen regions quarantined by peacekeeping forces as the City and surrounding area tore itself apart. What started as [[Syndikat]] attempts to protect Corporate assets escalated into all out zealous purging by the [[Moloch Vorhut]] and incursions by both Imperial forces as well as those from the League. The conflict raged on even as the leaders of the League and Empire teamed up to defeat Shugla. ''
 
File:Mnexus1.jpg|''Kast very briefly took control of the Throne, Ultimately deciding that the powerful artifakt could be put to good use if it's user was to follow some ground rules. So he Created a book of laws for the present and future, and then immediately abdicated it to the leaders of the Imperiya despite him being a member of the League. He justified his decision on the fact that the Throne was originally the property of the Empire anyway, and it was sacred to them. And even after it became embued with special powers, he felt that the irrevokable laws he had placed on the head of any ruler, combined with the very nature of the Imperiya's commitment to enforcing peace in the Realm, that at least for the short term things would be fine. ''

===Exodus Nehellenium===
 
Unbeknowst to the rest of the citizens of the realm. Shulga had left a parting gift to the Brikverse.  Some time after the defeat of the Monolith, one of Shulga's most trusted subordinates, General Tachenko, Survivor of both the Galacian Imperiya, and the escapades in the Monolith Realm, was given a secret message with the location of a portal to an unknown location. Upon arriving, Tachenko was greeted by the members of Shulga's personal guard where he was presented with the ''Lazarus Fleet''. An enormous fleet of Cruisers, Destroyers, Carriers and Battleships on a scale thought to be impossible in the Post-Collapse era of the realm where single ships were a rarity
 
 
 
In truth the Fleet had been constructed in the Omega Realm, the dark underworld of the Realm,  Also known as the endless baseplate where resources were theoretically infinite. Tachenko took command of the fleet and left the realm forever, returning to the Nehellenium Galaxy. Founding the [[Imperiya Novaya]], where he presumed to succeed the Fallen Galacia. 
 
 
 
Forces loyal to Sergachev branded them traitors, and persued them into the Old Galaxy,  The Imperiya renamed itself the Slavonik Imperiya.  And many groups from the realm started to venture into the Nehellenium as well.
 
 
 
=Regions and Locales=
 
The Monolith Plates consist of thousands, if not tens of thousands of plate worlds. Mapped out by Land Barons, Bureaucrats , and aspiring conquerors
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Monolith Realm Consists of a number of plate clusters each housing a few hundred, to in some cases a few thousand plate worlds, as well as an underworld known as the "Omega Plate" which goes on in perpetuity. The Worlds are Quarreled over by endless factions of Minifigs, Beastfigs, Demons, Mutants, Supernatural entities and evil agents of the Monolith itself.  The forces of the realm constantly fight over territory, recruits, resources and artifakts in order to further fuel their love of combat.  The most powerful artifakts allow the leaders of these factions to open portals to other realms, and magikally or teknologically inclined outsiders can also open portals to the realm and raid it for it's own resources, and even more so on the Omega Plate where resources are theoretically infinite.
 
 
 
Due to it's nature of being a number of plate clusters rather than a terrestrial landmass or star sector, The Realm is difficult to map in a way that is immediately understood to outsiders. Each plate cluster houses hundreds of [[Plate World|Plate Worlds]], Each Usually home to a varying number of minifigs and housing different levels of development. Each plate cluster would therefore be  home to anything between hundreds to tens of thousands of minifigs, depending on  the regions. Clusters have their own names, and generally most worlds in a cluster will be similar to each other in biome or features.

| The Alpha Cluster is the central sector of the realm, the location of most of the realm's great Cities, and a majority of industrial and commercial interests are also located here. It was traditionally a peaceful and lawful region, Throughout the ages, the great empires and powers of the realm have generally centered themselves in the Alpha clusterPrior to the collapse, it was generally protected by the Anwar Council, and then the OSKOM Civil defense, however after the collapse of greater civilization, Alpha suffered a massive refugee crisis which also brought several opposing forces within striking distance of one another.
 
 
 
Today, the Alpha Plates are still the central region of the realm, and house the majority of the population. But the general stability and quality of life here has plummetted in wake of the collapse of L-Gates and Civilization along with it
 
|-
 
| style="text-align: center; font-weight:bold;" | Lambda
 
| The Lambda cluster is sparsely populated region that borders the northern Alpha cluster. It was a largely overlooked backwater, until a series of events led the Black Legion into detonating an OT bomb in one of the Lambda Plates, which set off a chain of events that led to the Collapse.

=Minifig Civilization=
 
=Minifig Civilization=
The plates are home to hundreds of thousands of minifigs, the majority of baseplates that are inhabited, still remain uncontacted and the minifigs live shrouded in mystery. Nevertheless the norm for the explored regions is that Minifigs will compete for resources to build the best stuff. Normally they are concerned with simply building shelters and staying alive. Prior to the collapse, Civilization in the realm benefitted from functional immortality by way of the L-Gate tek. Society became dependent on this tek. Confident that they could live their lives forever, and that death was no consequence. Entire industry sectors were founded to work off the idea of "forever customers"
+
The continents and isolated plate worlds of Mir are home to hundreds of thousands of minifigs and individuals of other races. While information is only available for the Realm's largest continent, Serica. It is known that some populations exist all over the realm in areas that are yet uncontacted.  
  
Minifigs spent their days trying to build the coolest stuff, some would fight for fun. Others would explore, or create their own worlds out of virgin plates. All was well until about R2018 When the [[Black Legion]] arose. And had found a way to circumvent the L-Gates, and kill off innocent folk indefinitely.  
+
Most of the population lives in the central "green" regions of Serica, safe from ecological disaster  although smaller communities and settlements exist scattered across the wastes and wild territories. While Minifigs make up the majority of the population, there are known to be more than a dozen races on Serica alone, including some who have Migrated from Xindra and other continents.
  
The closest the realm came to a unified government was during the period of the First Alliance, and then after it's fall, a brief period under the Anwar administration. Both groups have since been shattered, and no unifying entity exists
+
==Governments, Alliances & Faction Entities==
  
Many equivalents of governments exist, however the area they "govern" is miniscule compared to the overall population of the plates. Nevertheless a rudimentary economy exists, backed on transparent elements and mixed with other intermediaries like paper notes, coins, and digital currencies.
 
 
The Black Legion's arrival set off a chain of events that ultimately caused the collapse of civilization as minifigs knew it. By R2020, Supernatural events had destroyed the Lazarus gate network, several central governments had risen and been destroyed. Minifigs had discovered a way to completely destroy entire plates, and nefarious corporate entities had also taken control of the teleporter network, allowing for plates to be split up, re-arranged, bought and sold on a whim.  By R2020 at least half of the population had been killed off. and the majority had retreated to relative safety in the Alpha cluster.
 
 
==Inhabitants==
 
 
===Peoples of the Realm===
 
 
 
* Elders
 
* Minifigs
 
** Yellows
 
** Toned
 
** Blues
 
* Beastfigs
 
** Canids
 
** Gators
 
** Avians
 
** Hivers
 
* Machines
 
* Monsters and Daemons
 
 
 
'''Elders'''
 
 
Elders, also known as the Ancients, were the first peoples of the Realm. They lived across the realm in small cities weilding awesome teknology. Matter replicators, nanoscale storage, Teleportation and even inheriting devices of Functional immortality from a [[Monolith|mysterious benefactor]]
 
 
After the arrival and rise of Minifig kind, they shared power with the first Alliance as the [[Anwar Council]]. The Anwar Administration  generally acted only on matters that affected the whole realm. But then the First Alliance was destroyed by both the Black Legion as well as it's own infighting.  The Elders would hold onto power for another year as the Council remained the diplomatic and economic center of the ream. However, After the fall of Anwar, the majority of the Elders had been killed off by the Black Legion, or had gone into hiding. Individuals would occasionally surface and try to make power grabs to create their own fiefdoms and empires. Generally with little success.
 
 
They are generally indistinguishable from Minifigs, but hold great psionik or magikal power.  Most Elders have an affection for Gold. And will almost always be wearing it. Elder Gold is a luxury, but Minifigs caught with it will usually be robbed or killed, as in a post-council world, few have any respect or tolerance for Elder Sympathisers.
 
 
 
 
'''Minifigs'''
 
 
Minifigs, or Figs are a general term for the common denizens of the realm. Two arms, two legs,  a round head, and generally no special powers to speak of.  They are by far the most creative and one of the most intelligent of the inhabitants, however they also boast the largest variety and disparity,  having both the realm's smartest minds and its biggest idiots. 
 
 
Common figs generally come from the "Yellow" complexion, although a signifigant amount of them are what are known as "Toned Minifigs",  their bodies a peach, tan, caramel or brown color. There is no inherent difference between them aside from appearance.  There are also a rare subset of the Fig Genus known as "Blues", thought to be artificially created by the Elders,  they have stronger psionik powers,  and can be found in various shades of blue,  and sometimes white..
 
 
'''Beastfigs'''
 
 
Beastfigs are a broad category to describe some of the more animalistic peoples of the realm.  Although some are only that way in appearance.  The different groups of Beastfigs are considered to be wholly unique and different from each other.  All of these "Races" were once subserviant to the Elders, and served a place in a caste system.  Since the collapse of Elder Civilization, the races have gone their seperate ways and retreated into the outlands, making their own Tribes, Packs and Hives.
 
 
'''Avians''' Are a race of proud, elegant and elitist Birdlike creatures, capable of flight. As former servants, adjutants, and all around worshippers of the Elders. They often take up residence in the ruins and remains of Elder towns.  Their societies are largely spiritual and religious. Avians are often part of Elders' entourages. As servants, advisors and fighters
 
 
'''Canids''' Are a race of violent, territorial and somewhat intelligent Carnivorous Mammals,  Known for their tribal pack hierarchies and constant infighting for dominance and rank. They were used primarily as tools of war and security by the Elders.
 
 
'''Gators'''  Are a race of clever, if not devious scavenger reptiles, farmers and hunters. In the times of the Elder's Civilization, they were generally used for hunting and as cannon fodder in war.
 
 
'''Hivers''' Are a race of insect like drone figures that are naturally controlled by a hive mind Ruled by a queen. The Elders previously used and abused Hivers as dumb labor forces.  Today Hivers are generally isolated and uncaring of the world around them.  Individual drones are often seperated or sometimes abandoned from their hives, leaving them free to live their own lives. Hiveless drones are generally very friendly at first. With the intelligence of children when first becoming free, they are incredibly naive.  Often falling into the hands of slavers.  Hivers are often mistreated for their unattractive appearance, giving them a disadvantage from the start, yet some do make it into positions of respect and power.
 
 
 
'''Machines''' are the any number of intelligent robots, droids, and other constructs. Ranging anywhere from dumb labor bots to fully sentient AI.  The former are found everywhere, the latter are extremely rare, and dangerous.
 
 
'''Monsters and Daemons''' have no bounds,  anything that else that isn't able or willing to display any shred of civility or peacefulness is generally considered to be a Mutant, Monster or Daemon.
 
 
==Central Government==
 
Since the fall of both the First Alliance and the Anwar Council, The closest remnant to a central government are the Police forces of [[OSKOM]], a security force set up by the Council after the fall of the Alliance. However they only keep the peace in a portion of the Alpha plates. All other regions of the realm are either wild and lawless,  or subject to rule and laws of other factions. in R2020 the force was mostly folded into the service of the Slavonik Imperiya
 
 
As of Q3 R2020. The Imperial Throne had been restored and embued with special powers after the final confrontation with the Monolith Crystal. As a result the Throne carried some of its power on the world around it. While the Throne was a possession of the Imperiya, it was decreed that whoever sat on it would be responsible for the entire realm.  It's first Emperor, Kast. Immediately used the Throne to create the "Black Book of Laws"  A collection of binding rules that all future emperors must follow.
 
 
* '''Laws enacted by Kast, the first ruler of the Throne, which are deemed to be sacred and eternal. Meaning they can never be repealed.  Abdicated Immediately'''
 
** ''The foremost duty of the Emperor of the Realm, Is to ensure the continued existence of the Realm, for better or for worse.''
 
** ''The Laws enacted by the first Emperor are eternal, however any law enacted after the first can be repealed, but the repealing Emperor must abdicate upon repealing another's law/s''
 
** ''The ruler of the Throne is responsible for their own safety. Whether through leadership, cunning or might.  Any Emperor who cannot safeguard their own life, is not worthy of the title''
 
 
==Factions & Groups==
 
 
 
===Major Factions===
 
''The largest and most powerful Factions commanding the largest armies, the most assets and resources, and the most influence on the realm''

==Warfare==
+
| style="width: 20%; background-color: white; vertical-align:top;"|
After the collapse, the realm had fallen into a state of chaos where Factions would fight regularly. Manufacturing capacity is minimal and almost all advanced tek is either destroyed or stolen and hiding in some bandit's lair. So the majority of fighting is done by soldiers with guns and melee weapons. Vehicles are uncommon but still in use, maintaining and fueling such machines is often at a high price. Almost all vehicles are leftovers from the past, meaning the are precious to their owners as no more can be made.  Aircraft are even more precious. The most jealously guarded military tek are without a doubt starships. Large aircraft that are capable of warp jumps with large Amethyst engines.
+
'''Zenterra Continent'''
 +
*[[Yuzha]]
 +
*[[Xind Empire]]
 +
*[[Kar'Shan]]

Factions will frequentley raid each others outposts and bases, although the raids on the latter are often hopeless unless an attacker is willing to commit serious resources.  Eliminating soldiers of enemy factions is usually of little consequence as they can just be replaced. So most operations target Officers, Vehicles, Resources or other valuable assets.

Rookie officers of groups are known to send their troops into battle just for the sake of ruining someone else's day by killing their doods.

Powered by Neon and fueled by Tibinium and Vortek crystals, Nanoforges are used to process a set of instructions transmitted wirelessly from faraway servers housing the schematics to produce practically anything an engineer or builder would need,  Standard briks, and even weapons can be produced with forges. However additional materials may be required depending on the project, like Mantle or Beryl
 
 
Nanoforges can be scaled up or down,  it's not uncommon to see small commercial level forges used in small stores. While the tek is highly proliferated, the schematics for products are jealously guarded by corporations, militaries, and private owners. Anyone who owns a schematic will often charge others to download them, either as a one time, or per use basis. This business model makes up a large portion of the Economy and Industry of the realm.
 
 
 
==Teleportation & Plate Travel==
 
Teleportation has remained a critical part of travel on the battleplates.  While flying by ship has always been a tried and true method, the costs using them are extremely high. Residents have found a number of methods to utilize the valuable teleportation crystals to get around the realm
 
 
 
===Ship Travel===
 
The most robust method of travel between plates remains that of flying by ship, Any ship with an amethyst powered engine can simply fly into warp space, and exit warp over another plate after travelling there on the dimensional plane.  Short of blowing the ships out of the sky, there is no way to prevent or lock out Ships from entering a plate world.  However making Ships that are large enough to carry a worthwhile payload,  but small enough to land on a plate world. All the while being equipped and maintained for warp travel are extremely expensive and rare. Leaving this a viable, albeit costly alternative for travel.
 
[[File:lgate.jpg|200px|thumb|right|An L-Gate, once part of a literal Resurrection network, now little more than glorified portal hubs]]
 
[[File:ptele.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Standard pattern personal teleporter]]
 
[[File:pcon.PNG|200px|thumb|right|Basic Plate connector on the edge of a plate world]]
 
===L-Gates===
 
The oldest method of teleporation are the so-called "Lazarus Gates". Prior to the collapse, they served a far greater purpose in that they allowed functional immortality to anyone who used them, creating a new body for anyone who died.  Their secondary purpose was that of a teleportation hub.
 
 
 
After the collapse, the life generating systems of the network no longer work,  L-Gates can still be used as  stations to travel to any other L-Gate still operational.
 
 
 
'''Inhibitors''' are devices that can govern, or outright block Access to L-Gates as well as personal teleporters.  Such devices are considered unlawful, but once installed there is little anyone can do about it, save for landing troops by ship to disable or destroy them.
 
 
 
===Personal Teleporters===
 
Handheld devices can be rigged with teleport crystals to facilitate transportation without the need of an L-Gate, however they requrie manual coordinates to be inserted, and improper entry of coordinates can cause minifigs to teleport themselves into walls, off the sides of tall buildings, or even into the void between plates,  all resulting in death.
 
 
 
Personal Teleporters, like L-Gates can be affected by Inhibitors
 
 
 
 
 
===Plate Connectors===
 
Plate connectors are a rather rudimentary portal network that are built on the closest ends of two nearby plate worlds. Usually in the form of a pair of small devices on opposite sides of a road, they will allow anyone who walks or drives through them, to instantly teleport to the other side.  These devices facilitate easy transport by ground, but are also easily sabotaged. PC Networks across much of the realm have been sabotaged or looted for their telecrystals.
 
 
 
==Rare Resources==
 
Despite an abundance of ABS, the real treasures of the realm are Rare and valuable resources that are scattered across the plates mainly in the form of transparent crystals, but also in other forms. Due to the nature of Industry in the realm, Nano forges and Matter Replicators can produce most basic materials with only a small ABS input,  however anything with a function or special attribute will require rare resources usually for the same forges
 
 
 
With the disintegration of the central government. Many of the institutions the Anwar administrators had set up fell apart. The Energy Backed Credit remained a popular medium. But with the events at Anwar, markets were destabilized to the point that other forms of currency began butting into trade. Groups would often trade resources for resources as well

| Tibinium
 
| A Bright Green rock, Crystaline in shape
 
Tibinium is perhaps the most important substance of the rare materials simply due to it's range of applications. It is considered to be a Matter Maniuplator, and can be combined with ABS to form briks and tools of almost any shape. Although to gain functions a forge may require other materials

Sometimes called "Neon Green". Neon is probably the most common of the "rare materials" It has a singular purpose; Power. "Neon Green" as it's often referred to is used as a catalyst in power generators for everything including Vehicles, Homes, and even powers Nanoforges
 
 
While very common. The [[Syndikat|Syndicate]] directley or indirectley controls a monopoly of Neon, Their Energy concern provides them with a huge source of revenue and trade

Vortek is a mystical and some would say, magikal rock. It's used in many appliances and electronics. It adds function to briks. Turning static imitations into functional power tools. Making Computers and Robots function. It's one of the more important, and thankfully more common materials.

Monolithium is a strange element. In it's natural state it glows in the dark,  but it can be used as a primary material in making stealth tek that renders the user partially or completely invisible to the naked eye. Even stranger is that it can also be used to create Stealth detection systems.

Chrome is a valuable rare material that is used to improve the effects of other materials like Mantle, Beryl and Vortek.  It makes gun cores stronger, Armor plating tougher, and function cores in computers and devices work smoother. It also looks cool.

Mir is a planet within a pocket dimension in the Gold Sector. It alongside it's Star, Monolit emerged in the sector after the eponymous "Monolith Event" which in R2018 wiped the entire region clean of all other stars, planets, celestial bodies, and in turn, all other life. While the planet and it's star exist in the sector, their physical location is unknown. Strange and powerful forces have successfuly kept the planet hidden from outside interference. And all travel to and from the planet is managed by a network of proxy portals.

While Mir's existence appears to be of artificial or intelligent design, the planet itself is plagued by a massive ecological disaster in the form of radioactive energy crystal infestations, not to mention the damage done by it's inhabitants through the course of several surface conflicts.

Minifig Civilization

The continents and isolated plate worlds of Mir are home to hundreds of thousands of minifigs and individuals of other races. While information is only available for the Realm's largest continent, Serica. It is known that some populations exist all over the realm in areas that are yet uncontacted.

Most of the population lives in the central "green" regions of Serica, safe from ecological disaster although smaller communities and settlements exist scattered across the wastes and wild territories. While Minifigs make up the majority of the population, there are known to be more than a dozen races on Serica alone, including some who have Migrated from Xindra and other continents.

Resources & Economy

Much of the realm now lies in ruins, a shadow of it's former self, however bleak the denizens of the realm are still able to make use of advanced tek from ancient elder civilizations that came before. A few key resources and devices have led to the particular way of life in the Realm, which as created it's own ways of warfare, industry, and trade

Nanoforges

Elder Nanoforges are complex machines created by ancient civilization that essentially act as advanced 3D Printers. Powered by Neon and fueled by Tibinium and Vortek crystals, Nanoforges are used to process a set of instructions transmitted wirelessly from faraway servers housing the schematics to produce practically anything an engineer or builder would need, Standard briks, and even weapons can be produced with forges. However additional materials may be required depending on the project, like Mantle or Beryl

Nanoforges can be scaled up or down, it's not uncommon to see small commercial level forges used in small stores. While the tek is highly proliferated, the schematics for products are jealously guarded by corporations, militaries, and private owners. Anyone who owns a schematic will often charge others to download them, either as a one time, or per use basis. This business model makes up a large portion of the Economy and Industry of the realm. The industrial scale forges are in limited supply, less than 2000 still exist in the realm. The knowledge on how to build and repair them has been lost with the departure of the Elders in R2020. Meaning Governments and Corporations that control them have even more influence over the economy of Mir.
