The Skyscape series

Over one hundred thousand years ago a humanity much unlike our own discovered and later colonized the third planet in the Odin star system and named it Muninn, mainly as a full scale mining operation for Deqaudria crystals which were used in the warp cores of the time, since the surface was mostly embroiled in toxic gasses making it inhospitable without the most industrial habitation devices.

However for a unkown reason to the inhabitants of the barren planetiod, it was abandoned leaving millions of innocent colonists cut off from the greater human empire and stranded upon the hulking machines as the only means to sustain them against the violent atmosphere of the gaseous planet. Humanity struggles on of course, slowly devolving into a more reverse steam punk culture. Where sky pirates would readily attack floating villages in search of salvageable parts to keep their own rust bucket ships afloat and vice versa.

And due to eugenic manipulation of their forebears there are two forms of human inhabitants, the vanilla humans who are noticeably stronger and more beautiful than Homosapians like us, having been modified genetically for survival on this world and between the stars themselves turning them into super humans who are born as the social elite more commonly referred to as the BP or 'Beautiful People'. And secondly there is the Para-Humans who are more of an offshoot of the first genus and much more of a genetic wild card in play. Often possessing bizarre abilities beyond the physical and because of that more commonly feared and left to worst fates than piracy will garner you by the authority of the general public. However some para-humans still live on perhaps even afluently among other humans so long as they keep their special abilities an unintrusive secret of their own. And in some settlements many Para's have been shuffled through the hierarchy of the society into the bottom most rungs life, filling the roles of mechanics and menial workers known as 'Greasers' who keep the floating cities functional.

Despite the differences between these two worlds, a horror sleeps below both of them yet, this ball of gasses has contained a long forgotten secret dark enough to drive away the likes of an entire interstellar civilization. This planet is home of a darkness meant to plague the galaxy and consume all life if allowed to traverse it. But where the question truly lies is, who are you and are you a hero or a villain?
