Hello, this is my second fanfic and I've been feeling a lack of HFY fanfics present, and the existing ones are not satisfying enough. This fanfic takes place a thousand years before the events of ME 1, which means the Geth have not existed and the Drell are still stuck on Rakhana. In unrelated news, the Turians have only gotten their council seat a little more than a hundred years ago and the 'Council Triumvirate' thing is something new.

This fanfic would be a transmigration fanfic of myself but with the power to create anything I want but I'll be holding back to make humanity not too dependent. The fanfic will be a reflection of humanity's unawakened potential and my personal and unquestioned leadership of them. This has heavy religious content so don't straight up hate on me because I already warned you!

Without further ado, hope you enjoy it and thank you for reading!

PS. This will be the Imperium but better!!!

= Rome, Roman Empire =

24th December, 133 AD

It was a cold, windy night upon the city of Rome. The winter solstice was a night away and the colder climate will turn away as the sun rises back to prominence. Despite the cold breeze and gusts of wind that sweep through the streets, Rome remained as bustling as ever. The sound of wooden carts being pulled and the incessant chatter of the marketplaces thoroughly filled the air. Many could not sleep, many did not wish to sleep, preparations for the festivals of Saturnalia and winter solstice were of the utmost importance in their minds.

Only minorities slept, celebrating the warming climate instead of the triumphant rise of a foreign god. These minorities, like the jews, prepared only a ceremonial meal or a few pieces of decoration to show their respect to their roman neighbors. With only so little work to be done in preparation, they had went to sleep while the city remained awake. Like last year, the night went on loudly, for the festival was so important that day and night was only different in the sky above. However, a bright light suddenly erupted in the sky and many looked up to see a heavenly herald bathed in light.

A being in robes of billowing light and twelve pairs of diaphanous golden wings shone brilliantly in the sky, its light rivalling the sun in brightness and warmth. Many citizens either panicked or bowed in worship, seeing the radiant light of a god shining upon them. An hour was spent in silence, the masses in Rome were speechless and stripped of strength, while the divine entity remained fluid but motionless in its place. The Caesar was alerted of a god's descent and he called upon the most highest and immediately available priests to come and meet this unknown god with him.

14 priests were assembled, all high priests of various temples in the city, summoned to the Caesar's presence to meet with this mysterious deity of holy light. A lyre was brought by one of the priests and the rest prepared offerings and incense to the god in hopes of appeasing it for mercy or favor. They briskly walked towards the city's largest marketplace, where the god remained static in its place. While making their way to the luminous god, the priests discussed its identity, a god from their texts or an unknown god from beyond the peaks of Olympus.

Upon arrival to the marketplace, where many are seen prostrating or praying, the priests immediately burnt incense and sang hymns to attract the god's attention. The lyre was gracefully played in tune with the hymns as the priests attempted to call the god. At the end of their improvised routine, the god finally reacted. It floated to the ground and it 'eyed' the priests, its face was a shining bright light and its robes were of a more tangible light of gold, silver or white. A few minutes of silence and then, its celestial voice boomed.

"Mortals, I am the Herald of Heaven and I bring heaven's will." It said in perfect latin. A few moments of pause and the Caesar bravely asked, "And what is the will of the gods?" The Herald shifted its attention to the man clad in golden armor and a red cloak, the Herald appeared to grow larger and the Roman Emperor was visibly intimidated by the Herald's show of power. The Herald continued, "Heaven dictates man to unite and rise into the stars, to prove that they are truly the image of God since the time of Adam and Eve's days in Eden."

"Heaven's will be done." Said all citizens of Rome in unison.

= 30th December, 133 AD =

Rome declares the presence of a descended god to reign as the Caesar's superior. Roman morale increases at this news and the citizens exhibit more nationalism. With the perceived blessing of this new god, Roman expansion is accelerated and the empire pushes deeper into europe and its barbarian territory.

= 24th March, 134 AD =

Rome declares a massive religious reform under the new god's orders. The newly born Christianity replaces the roman pantheon as the national religion. To prevent public outcry, the roman pantheon is accepted as national saint deities, unworthy of worship but worthy of reverence as guardians and guides of the empire. The previous Emperor Nero is also denounced, his claims that christians burned Rome sixty years ago were proven false. The deceased emperor's memory is tarnished and the people are expected to be more open to Christianity as a state religion.

= 25th March, 134 AD =

Christian leaders throughout all the empire and its vassal states are called to Rome to explain and decide on the central tenets and doctrines of Christianity. Small groups of several soldiers are sent to escort each one of them to Rome.

= 30th June, 134 AD =

All the leaders have been gathered and the descended divine wishes to spend a six month period to finalize the central tenets of Christianity and its doctrines. The news of conversion has reached all throughout the empire, the jews and radical pagans in particular were not happy. The two were unable to voice an outcry because of a recent crippling move and a potential execution for treason.

= 30th December, 134 AD =

The Council of Nicea was formed, the church will become one but separate. 365 leaders represent all christian sects and organizations in the planet. A yearly meeting will be declared on the 30th December to discuss doctrines, interpretations and literature. The words of the Council are absolute but the descended god, now known as Herald, is given an equally absolute veto right that allows him to change a policy or doctrine immediately.

The central tenets are completed as follows.

• Our God is One and Triune - the Holy Trinity doctrine is the most central doctrine of the Churches. Three aspects of God, the Father, the Son and the Spirit are identified. Its concept is similar to fire, its light and its heat, both are the fire itself but simply different aspects of it. The same substance but differing persons of the Godhead.

• Jesus is the Messiah and Son of God - Jesus is identified as the incarnation of the Son and the savior of all sapient beings from its sins. He died on the cross for the sins of all things so that all sentient beings could repent and return to God as His perfect image.

• There are at least 72 Bible books - Due to the existence of Apocryphas and a multitude of unconfirmed books, there are more than 72 bible books, but 72 is the standard number for all bibles. The extra books are labeled Extracanonica and they are not to be used in Church assemblies but as research material and personal belongings.

All books are divided into the New Testament and Old Testament books, what would once have become the Deuterocanonica have been merged with the Old Testament. Due to this, there are 151 Psalms and longer books of Esther and Daniel.

• What is Written is Law - The Council of Nicea or any existing church has no right to make doctrines beyond what is written. The offenders will be labeled heretics and tried for the corruption of the Word of God. Capital punishment is outlawed and reeducation in a remote monastery for heretics is the main punishment.

= 2nd January, 135 AD =

Herald declared the churches' method on handling other faiths. To help missionary work and bring traditionalists and conservatives to the fold, local deities will be held as Saint Deities in the church. They will be recognized as the most powerful members of the heavenly hosts of God as a way to respect the local culture. All traditions will be kept as long as they do not go against the bible's teachings.

All worship traditions are allowed as long as they are aimed at God's glory and not any being, mortal or immortal.

= 4th July, 137 AD =

The Roman Empire has become a christian majority empire. The Churches recognize 16 Saint Deities, from Saint Jupiter to Saint Cybele, conversion myths are written about them and statues of them are allowed to exist as long as they are not idols of worship. All temples are retrofitted into churches and symbols of christian faith are found everywhere in the empire.

Herald calls for the senate, the consuls and the Caesar to meet with him alongside prominent the researchers of this era in the palace of Rome. Herald reveals and imparts the technology of cement and gunpowder, its uses for architecture and weaponry. He taught them the basics of chemistry and erased alchemy all together. The Herald requests as many scientists as possible for him to evolve the empire forward.

A decade long teaching session will soon unfold.

= 8th November, 147 AD =

Hundreds of prominent scientists and philosophers of this era have been enlightened in many subjects by the decade long lectures of Herald. The scientists learned the periodic table, finding out that the world had 94 natural elements and that the air was a complex mix of several of these elements. The believers of alchemy had challenged him in this right, believing that there are only four basic elements.

The Herald easily proved them wrong by showing magnesium and lithium flares, revealing the existence of different colors of fire and explaining them. Then, the alchemists have become his most enthusiastic students in the aspects of natural science. The concept of molecules and sub atomic particles were quite the bottleneck for them, delaying their progress for several months as the concept of sub atomic particles such as protons, electrons and neutrons and how they allowed the existence of ions and molecules was such a profound concept in their genius minds.

They managed to complete the study of intermolecular forces, lattice energy, enthalpy change, rates of reaction, equilibrium and its further aspects and moles and equations after three years of study. They were overwhelmed at first, but their genius intellect that justifies their prominence allowed them to comprehend it adequately. The Herald stopped only at these topics in Chemistry, he believed that letting them discover the rest would be for the best.

The transition from Chemistry to Physics was a long session of questions and speculations, mostly on the subject of forces and new mathematical concepts introduced to help them comprehend physics. Physics had more material due to being combined with mathematics but thanks to prior knowledge from Chemistry formulas like the calculations for pH and K equilibrium constants, the subject of highschool physics and math were completed in only 3 and a half years.

Biology was an interesting 2 years, studying the intermediate subjects of the human body and the microbial world. The applications of this were the easiest to be visualized as medical technology was practically nonexistent in this age. The topic on immunology was full of questions, many debates and speculations arose about the origins and spread of disease, even a pseudo miasma theory emerged during the large discussions. Their newfound knowledge of pathogens and its two main groups revolutionized their methods of treatment and prevention. The knowledge of microscopic life prompted them to come up with the progenitor of all facial masks to limit the spread of disease and a set of dining etiquette to limit the extent of plagues.

The last one and a half years were spent in a simple but extensive course of basic engineering feats such as windmills and steam engines and an ideological transformation. Herald expounded the principles of democracy, meritocracy, capitalism, women's rights, human rights and public education. He explained its strengths and witnesses, ending with an irrefutable argument in favor of all of these modern principles.

His last words on this were, "A horse with bruises will fail, killing its rider with it."

= 21st July, 151 AD =

The first windmill was built in Rome, its mechanism doing the work of a hundred men. The people were astounded by this invention and praised its architect. The architect denied the praise he received and praised Herald for giving him the knowledge instead. The success of the first windmill opted the students of Herald's decade long lecture to spread their knowledge more actively and bring proof in the form of advancements.

= 27th May, 153 AD =

Dozens of windmills were built on Rome, other cities have begun constructions upon hearing the news of windmills.

The Council of Nicea sends a wave of missionaries to barbarian lands, hoping to convert them into Christ and making Roman occupation seamless.

= 9th August, 157 AD =

Several famines in the empire's territories have been avoided due to the high productivity of windmills. With a higher food supply, the empire's expansion becomes much stronger.

Missionaries enter barbarian territory as travelers, the barbarians grant them entry without any problems.

= 1st September, 160 AD =

The first flintlocks have been invented in the empire, its production price is quite costly but are affordable weapons by Hoplites and above. The effectiveness of these weapons in ambushes have been immeasurable, barbarian leaders are swiftly slain from thirty meters away as planned ambushes are carried. The barbarian threat begins to fragment and the south of river Rhine is succesfully claimed as Roman territory.

The barbarians cowered at the sight of the flintlocks, fleeing from what they dub as the howling sticks of death. From fear, barbarian military activities have slowly declined and noticing this, the current generals of the empire push forward to claim mainland europe.

= 22nd November, 160 AD =

Cement has been introduced to the public, the hard but affordable building material quickly gains popularity as the walls of Rome are reinforced with such material. A demonstration by one of its producers reveal the independence of the material from wood, a great resistance to the fires that plague great cities from time to time. It spread much more quickly at this time.

= 25th December, 160 AD =

A few barbarian settlements have been converted to christianity. They celebrate their first christmas free from their pagan past.

= 3rd February, 161 AD =

The Herald remarks of the slow progress of the empire's technological development and takes matters into his own radiant hands. He taught workers the assembly line method, breaking down the production of all equipment into simple steps that will be repeated by the respective people. This leads to quadruple rate of production and a noticeable economic boom.

= 4th August, 161 AD =

Herald explains the density importance of ships and teaches the construction of cement ships into the navy. The fireproof ships were quickly prioritized in production in order to expand into the seas of northern europe and secure dominance of the Mediterranean sea.

= 29th October, 161 AD =

Feeling that the cement ships are still too slow for his standards, Herald teaches steam paddling technology and popularizes the use of steam engines by building steam dynamos for mining and tilling farms.

The empire enters a gradual industrial revolution with the recent developments from Herald.

= 163 AD =

Barbarian christians account for 9% of barbarian population and the missionaries begin to triple. At the sight of success, the churches send a second wave of missionaries to Alexandria and Ethiopia.

A breakthrough in heating by a disciple of a renowned philosopher of the empire leads to the discovery of low quality steel. Strong for its time and cheap to produce, the steel found it replacing iron in a span of several months. Herald is happy over this progress.

= 165 AD =

The first school for commoners was constructed in Rome. Nobles see it as a waste of time, confident in their inherited superiority. Those who received Herald's wisdom supported the construction and planned for the construction of more public schools like this, confident in their teacher's knowledge. Currently, only adults could attend and a vast majority of enrolling students are male.

The school offers a 5 year course in mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology, history, business and ideology. By the term's end, it is expected for these students to have grade 9 level knowledge in all these subjects.

= 168 AD =

38 concrete ships have been constructed and deployed in the navy. Larger ships and ramming ships in the roman navy have all but equipped with steam paddles, doubling their speed and halving the use of slaves in the navy. Herald redirects the slaves to construct the first ship canal in egypt. He promised the slaves freedom for them and their families as long as the canal is completed.

= 170 AD =

Most of the empire is using steam engines to mine and farm, increasing the empire's resources almost tenfold. The extra resources are used to expand existing cities, develop more advanced technology based on Herald's knowledge and gradually implement Herald's ideologies such as meritocracy and human rights.

= 176 AD =

The Caesar steps down for his son to take his place, the empire hopes that the new emperor will bring great contributions to the empire like his father.

The beneficial effects of public education comes to light, the first students of Rome's public school invent the next generation of guns and a basic steam automated pulley for construction. The steam based pulley increased construction rates by at least 50%, prompting architects to design greater projects.

9 new public schools open, the nobles are gradually developing better opinion on the commoners.

= 180 AD =

The canal is completed, the slaves and their families are freed as promised. As a further act of goodwill, slavery is abolished as steam engines replaced the slaves with many extra benefits.

Cannons are invented and gun technology is polished further.

= 184 AD =

Herald commissions the invasion of the arabian peninsula from both land and sea. With a surplus of food, a rising industrial revolution and new, unmatched weaponry, an overwhelming victory is expected.

= 200 AD =

The Arabian invasion is underway. The Nile canal has proven to be extremely valuable in allowing the offense on two fronts to work in tandem. The tribes of Arabia fail to fight off the invasion, the tribes too discordant to ally against the roman threat on two fronts. The roman armies easily claim the city of mecca and fortified it into the region's center of roman government. Herald personally oversees the city's development.

= 202 AD =

The subjugation of all but the eastern and northern regions of Arabia leads to the formation of a vassal state. Pagan deities that resist the canonization are removed along with all their idols, their texts are confiscated for research on history and pagan religion. All shrines to the assimilated deities are modified into churches and conversion myths are written. A total of 8 saint deities are added, from Saintess Alilat the Ancient to Saint Pazuzu the Wrathfully Just.

= 207 AD =

By the Council of Nicea's decision, women's rights are elevated to complete equality. Before God and law, men and women are completely equal. Slavery is gradually fading as the technology improves in great strides and the christian faith root deeper into society.

= 212 AD =

Furnaces and metallurgy techniques greatly improve, allowing increased production and quality of the steam engines and its metal components.

= 220 AD =

Herald sends 144 skyscraper sized satellites into space in low earth and mid earth orbits. The satellites will peer into the stars and identify all stars and the significant objects orbiting them to determine suitable locations for future colonization attempts.

= 224 AD =

A total of 50 public schools have been constructed throughout the empire.

The Order of the Lamb was established, a group of priests and priestesses trained in combat with many weapons. Herald oversees them and proclaims them as the first guardian of the churches and the people.

= 225 AD =

Arabian scientists assimilated to the empire have successfully perfected the roman christian calendar, adding 63 days and deducting 4 years in respect to Jesus' real date of birth.

The previous date was 24th August 229, now it is 22nd June 225.

= 228 AD =

The gatling gun was invented, its use in the eastern push allowed the Roman Empire to push as far as modern day Kazakhstan.

= 229 AD =

After 8 years of creation, the Order of the Lamb is given special training by Herald. They are taken for a ten year training session in the cold tundra of Siberia. Two thousand members of the order are given genetic injection in the form of mosquitoes and a special enzyme.

In a month, a significant resistance to higher and lower temperatures would be observed in a range of an extra 15 C.

In three months, endurance and stamina would increase threefold and pain would be halved.

In a year, regeneration factor would be multiplied a thousand fold, limb and organ regeneration is observed. 500 year lifespan observed.

In two years, hearing range, reaction speed, movement speed and mental activity is tripled.

In seven years, muscle strength and durability multiplies tenfold.

Herald comments on the birth of the first generation of superhumans, "Recessive nature of genetic improvements will result in a superhuman minority. Favorable result for social development."

= 240 AD =

With the help of Herald, the first microscope is invented and the microscopic world is discovered. With his guidance, the medical technology of the empire reaches almost modern heights. Bandages, painkiller drugs, simple vaccinations and face masks are introduced into society.

= 252 AD =

The Roman Empire expands to absorb the Persian Empire, combining their governments into one. The warring indian kingdoms and empires and the chinese Han Dynasty become wary of this growing foreign power.

= 280 AD =

Project Yazata is commissioned by Herald, seven persian individuals are chosen to serve as the avatars of the Persian Saint Deities. Herald personally mentors them and leaves the Roman Empire to grow and expand for the next 120 years.

= 325 AD =

The Roman Empire completely encompasses mainland europe, excluding russia. Expansion in Britain has proven slow due to the lack of resources from the troops in Britain. Half of the large island has been conquered anyways.

= 350 AD =

In a bold political move, Emperor Constantine implements meritocracy and abolishes nepotism and hereditary positions including the emperor position. He declared democratic election of the Emperor position and members of the Senate. The Churches fully support his declaration alongside the commoners and oppressed peoples.

Senate elections are conducted once a decade and Emperor elections are conducted once four decades or upon the Emperor's death.

= 380 AD =

Instead of a schism that separates the Empire into two halves, the Empire is governed in regions. There are 6 regions of the Empire, each governed by a Senator council of thirty democratically elected leaders.

The list of regions are as follows:

• West Roman/European

• East Roman/Phoenician

• Alexandrian/Sahara

• Persian

• Arabian

• Kazrakh

= 400 AD =

Training brought by project Yazata results in extensive gene augments, granting immense improvements that would cause many to easily mistake the participants as gods. Each participant is given a code name that everyone must always refer as. There is Ahriman, Anahita, Vohu, Armaiti, Mitra, Atar and Orhmazd. All members of the Yazata project must keep their identities and presences a secret, drawing as little attention as possible.

The heavy augmentation of genes result in multiple factors being grossly exaggerated. The body weight to strength ratio results in the project's members to exhibit a hundred thousand times the normal human strength. The average casual weightlifting by all of the project's participants show that they can carry up to 50 kilotons of weight if serious.

Precise augmentations to the muscle and nervous system allow extremely enhanced strength to coexist with high agility, reflexes and perception. The yazatas possess nine hundred times the mental and physical speed of humans, allowing them to dodge projectiles up to 100 km/s in speed and punch at speeds of 1000 m/s. A combination of this trait and the strength trait results in an average punch containing 4.2 kilotons of energy.

The Yazatas possess extremely high regeneration, a flesh wound would recover in a few seconds and an organ would be rebuilt in a day or two. They are also suited to survive almost indefinitely without food, taking at least ten thousand years to show visible signs of starvation. They do not require oxygen to function as metabolic adaptations and psychic abilities allowed them to continuously supply themselves with energy. This also results in the caving of their anus and removal of menstrual cycle.

The most experimental modification to them are psychic abilities. Herald discovered psychic abilities during the training of project Yazata, a rare brain formation that allows abilities similar to clairvoyance and limited telekinesis. Further study into it reveals an unknown form of physically untraceable radiation emitted from the psychic brain. Further analysis reveals most brains to emitting this radiation but in trace amounts compared to psychic brains.

Via a completely redesigned brain and spinal cord, the radiation, now known as Keter, is emitted in heavy amounts by brain activity. Keter manipulates the environment by changing the properties of 'strings' around it, allowing it to bypass virtually all aspects of known physics and changing the world's properties to the user's will. However, studies show that it's erratic in nature and that anything into energy manipulation may not produce visible results due to the sheer complexity of manipulating energy compared to directional forces.

Classified as Trisagion level psychics, the Yazatas possess psychic abilities to manipulate minds, warp space and control natural forces such as gravity, electromagnetism, strong and weak interactions. Generation of all types of energy are observed, though all energy based phenomenon possess only 240 megatons of energy at most and complexity may limit the energy yield. A single psychic attack from any of them is equivalent to the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa.

Herald commands them to travel all the world and master all arts of combat, both physical and logical. They are to train their psychic abilities in secret and limit all knowledge of their existence. They will only return to the persian capital of Parsagadae after they hear news of otherworldly cities.

= 550 AD =

The Roman Empire has reached the level of the middle stages of industrial revolution by Herald's guidance. Bicycles were constructed and cheap, private transportation allowed greater productivity in the empire. Telescopes and light microscopes are popular amongst scientists and philosophers, resulting in a boom of scientific and philosophical literature. Relatively widespread public education allowed the economy to thrive as many people become knowledgeable about the world around them.

= 600 AD =

The Empire plans to expand into Russia to add two regions to its territory. Large armies are amassed to conquer the northern land.

= 626 AD =

Christianity is perfected in these books and their popularization to the philosophical community will severely dampen or even outright prevent secularism.

= 642 AD =

Russia is successfully conquered by the almost modern army. The regions of Ukrainia and Russia are established. The army turns its sights to conquering scandinavia and the rest of britain and scotland.

= 670 AD =

A petition by the first patriarch of the growing Russian Orthodox church urges the Council of Nicea to translate the standard bible into all languages as most of the population are unable to read it and rely on priestly guidance. Fearing the potential corruption by heretic priests, the patriarch urges the council to agree. By the grace of God, all churches agree in favor of the petition and the bible is translated from latin into dozens of different local languages and dialects.

= 772 AD =

The world's first sewage system is built in Rome, hygiene improves.

= 780 AD =

India is conquered, the romans with their gatling guns, cannons, revolvers and shotguns easily slaughtered the large but extremely vulnerable indian forces. Through the Khyber pass, the Roman Empire enter India and defeated all of its warring kingdoms and empires. Roman casualties were low as bandages and alcohol stopped many from bleeding to death or suffering a fatal infection.

The Northern and Southern Indian regions are established.

= 825 AD =

= 944 AD =

The first private companies emerge as major merchant groups decide to transition after learning the benefits of the stock market and standardization.

= 950 AD =

To limit pollution, Herald personally designs the roads and places a set of laws in their construction. All roads must be flanked with shrubbery, so that rainwater will be absorbed into the soil and not linger, preventing mosquitoes and waterborne diseases from developing. Factories must be surrounded by flowering trees and plants and pollinating animals must be cared for.

The pollution will be absorbed by the trees and eventually, the trees will adapt to the increasing concentrations of air pollution. Their adaptations will be passed on to their young and widespread pollination by future bees and butterflies will spread the genes for resistance and possibly cure to pollution everywhere.

= 952 AD =

Missionaries successfully convert three minor cities to Christianity despite heavy persecution. The cities are taught advanced technology to rebel and establish a greater mayan civilization.

= 992 AD =

The Council of Nicea establishes the Evangelium, an order of missionaries with warrior and philosophical training. They are sent to convert Asia into Christianity.

= 994 AD =

Rome is fully paved and industrialized, pollution is barely felt and the green landscape complements the city's grand architecture.

= 996 AD =

Herald introduces construction machines and modern administration. All citizens of the empire are catalogued and given identities. After two decades, legal marketplaces and merchants will not trade with those who lack identities.

= 1000 AD =

Herald establishes the University of Rome. Universities offer greater knowledge than public schools and only accept those with certain grades. Those who graduate from universities are equal in knowledge to philosophers and scientists. Currently, only six majors and eleven minors exist.

= 1010 AD =

Herald teaches electronics and computers. Electronics major and Analysis minor is introduced.

= 1015 AD =

Modern courts are invented, prisons are set far away from cities and compulsory labor is enforced. Capital punishment is abolished and the most severe punishment is God's Mercy, exile to a faraway and dangerous land, God decides your life. Law major and Politics major is introduced.

= 1023 AD =

Two intelligence departments and a classified research department is formed by Herald. The Shadow Stalkers (SSV), a Persian, Phoenician and Alexandrian intelligence agency. They are designed to stop and dismantle terrorists and criminal organizations. Their patron is Saint Vohu the Silent Avenger, their main doctrine is secrecy, quick assassinations, espionage and contingency plans.

Those of the Shadow Stalkers are genetically modified to be telepaths, chameleon skinned, thermally cloaked, extremely agile, soundless and lie detecting. The SSV is public entry but its operations are kept secret. A ten year training session must be passed in order to join.

The second Intelligence department is the Dominus Nox (DNX), a European intelligence agency. They are designed to handle unknown threats, rebels, external threats and ultimately, psychic threats. These threats are not limited to military threats but also sociological and economic threats. They have no patron and are personally supervised by Herald and the Senate leaders.

The members of Dominus Nox are also genetically modified. They gain ten times the human reflex, the strength of a hundred men, long range telepathy, extremely appealing forms, genetic memory, immortality and the ability to know everything through ingesting blood. Herald bases them on the romanticized human myth of vampires. They have a twenty year training session before augmentation and a specific dress code to make them stand out in the crowd.

Trismegistus is founded as a forbidden research department. It's a secret society directly supervised by Herald that dabbles in all forms of 'dark' research to determine if it is ethical or at least partially ethical for public use. They indirectly guide the path of human development under Herald's command.

= 1035 AD =

Prototype missiles are invented, testing is months apart due to the relatively high price of oil as its fuel and warhead.

= 1046 AD =

TNT is invented, the age of explosives begin.
