House Va’ruun

First up is Slytherin, sorry, House of Va’ruun. This cult worships the Great Serpent because one guy had a ‘vision’ of a snake who told him a prophecy, and everyone was just like “oh yeah sure ok that sounds normal”. The group now believes that the Great Serpent will devour the universe unless humanity keeps grav jumping. Advantage: Increased HP and O2 when jumping. Disadvantage: HP and O2 will decrease if you do not jump regularly.

The Enlightened

This group are the arrogantly self-proclaimed ‘Enlightened’ and the atheists of this universe. Their main mission is to explore and discover, and to spread the word of scientific progress across the stars. Their main focus seems to be community outreach and charity programs. Advantage: Access to the Enlightened special chest and vendor. Disadvantage: No access to the Sanctum Universum chest.

Sanctum Universum

A little more familiar to anyone who knows about monotheism in our world, this group believes in one true deity. They think that the grav drive was invented via God’s guidance and is Their tool to give humanity to see Them one day. Advantage: Access to the Universum special chest. Disadvantage: No access to the Enlightened vendor.
