GALACTIC NEXUS
On the vibrant planet Genus, part of the expansive Starry galaxy comprising 110 inhabited planets, a young girl named Nova was abandoned by her parents during a tumultuous battle that shook their world. In the aftermath, the planetary government introduces Nexus—a sophisticated gun sport that serves as a unique means of conflict resolution among the planets.
Nexus is structured into two main formats: Blaze Rounds, where teams of up to 30 members compete in strategic battles, and Battle Royale, featuring smaller teams of 5 in intense skirmishes. Each match is critical, progressing through five distinct divisions: Prelims, District, Division, National, and the ultimate challenge, the Planet Representative stage.
Nova, now a resilient and skilled teenager, grows up determined to excel in Nexus, fueled by a desire to understand her parents' abandonment and driven by a quest for recognition and belonging. With her natural leadership skills and sharp tactical mind, Nova assembles a team from diverse backgrounds across Starry's planets, each member specializing in one of Nexus's five crucial positions:
1. **Marksmen**: Expert shooters known for their precision and accuracy.
2. **Scouts**: Agile and stealthy operatives adept at reconnaissance and sabotage.
3. **Engineers**: Technological experts who maintain and innovate weaponry and equipment.
4. **Medics**: Skilled healers and combat medics, essential for team survival.
5. **Leaders**: Strategic thinkers who coordinate team maneuvers and make critical decisions.
As Nova and her team progress through Nexus's rigorous divisions, they face formidable opponents, forge alliances with rival teams, and uncover deeper conspiracies threatening the galaxy's fragile peace. Along the way, Nova confronts personal challenges, grapples with her identity, and uncovers secrets about her parents' involvement in the events that shaped her childhood.
