The Story So Far...

In the heart of the steel-plated city of Cerulis lies the Federation, a powerful regime that has ruled for generations. The city itself is a towering fortress of neon-lit skyscrapers, labyrinthine streets, and towering mech factories that churn out the armored giants used to maintain control. At the helm of the Federation is the Arcanis Family, a bloodline known for their iron grip on power, strategic cunning, and vast wealth. With roots stretching back to the city's founding, the Arcanis dynasty has woven their influence into every facet of life in Cerulis. They are revered by some as protectors, feared by others as tyrants.

The Arcanis family commands an elite force of soldiers known as the Vanguard, a highly trained army equipped with the finest combat mechs in existence. Each mech is a masterpiece of engineering, designed not only for battle but to serve as symbols of the Federation's unbreakable might. These mechs, clad in silver and gold armor, patrol the city streets, projecting the Federation’s power and ensuring that order is maintained—on their terms.

But not everyone accepts the Federation's rule.

In the shadows, a resistance has been growing. Known as The Core, they are an underground faction determined to overthrow the Arcanis regime and free the people from the Federation’s oppressive rule. Composed of ex-Federation soldiers, rogue engineers, and daring civilians, The Core operates from the outskirts of Cerulis, striking back at the Federation with guerrilla tactics and stealth. Unlike the polished mechs of the Vanguard, The Core’s mechs are rugged and patched together from salvaged parts, each one unique and deeply personal to its pilot.

The Core believes that power should not lie in the hands of a single family but with the people themselves. Fueled by stories of a time before the Federation's dominance, they are willing to risk everything to ignite a revolution. Every clash between the Federation and The Core shakes the city, a reminder of the simmering unrest beneath the Federation's polished exterior.

In this world, battles are fought not just with weapons, but with ideals. And as long as The Core continues to resist, the fate of Cerulis—and its people—hangs in the balance.
