The Temple of the Codex Spartan
“Faith is the Code. Order is the Way. The Void is our Test.”
Lore / Founding Myth
After the fall of the Messer Regime, a lone naval commander named Kael Spartin disappeared into deep space with a band of devoted followers. They rejected the corruption of both empire and rebellion, seeking truth in the uncharted reaches.
In the abyss, they discovered fragments of an ancient pre-UEE archive — a collection of philosophies, tactical doctrines, and meditations on order and divinity. From this knowledge, they built The Codex — a living scripture that would become their guiding law.
The followers swore loyalty not to any government or corporation, but to the Codex itself. Over generations, their descendants formed The Temple of the Codex Spartan, a secretive order blending faith, strategy, and sacrifice.
To this day, their agents move through the stars, reclaiming lost knowledge, enforcing balance, and recording each lesson into the ever-growing Codex — the eternal scripture of the void.
