Novatar the Sun-Killer travels the universe in his massive Nebula Ship. Within it live the Novatians, an amalgam of numerous advanced species with no other home. They are as skin mites to Novatar, beneath his notice, but they fight to prevent anyone else from taking up residence.

The Harbingers of Novatar the Sun-Killer are vengeance-obsessed survivors of the cultures Novatar destroyed by making their suns go nova. The (currently) Harbingers poison suns Novatar might go to next, hoping that over eons the poison will weaken Novatar enough he can be fought.

The Steps of Essar, leading to the Forum Essarium, are famously scaled for creatures of differentiating heights. The central steps are comfortable for those 5-6 feet in height with elven proportions. To the left are steps scaled for creatures 2.5/3 feet high proportioned as gnomes.

I am not my trauma, any more than I am my thumb.
But like my thumb, my trauma is part of it, and it impacts how I do things.

I can saw at it, gnaw at it, try to worry it lose.
But that takes time and effort.

And when caught, his first reaction was to blame Democrats.
Now he's pled guilty.
