'''Terra Novus''' (''New Earth'') is the '''third and final major timespan''' of the '''[[Natura]]''' franchise — set during '''[[Solar Cycle 27]]''' and beyond — representing the cosmic-scale future where the franchise's themes reach their ultimate expression.
 
'''Terra Novus''' (''New Earth'') is the third and final of the three primary timespans in the '''[[Natura]]''' franchise, corresponding to '''[[Solar Cycle 27]]''' (2044–2055).


== Overview ==
== Overview ==
Terra Novus represents the '''cosmic era''' — where the conflict expands beyond Earth and humanity into intergalactic and super-cosmic scales. Ancient species, interstellar empires, and forces that have been manipulating reality across all of time finally come into direct confrontation.
Terra Novus expands the franchise from planetary/solar-system scale to '''intergalactic and super-cosmic''' scale. The player consciousness evolves from [[PsiSys]]/ASI ([[Terra Vetus]]) to '''Universal Consciousness''' — the same fundamental guiding principle at a vastly expanded scale.


The Main Characters of Terra Novus are '''[[Tarr'i]]''' of the '''[[Fer'ka]]''' — a magical cat/dog hybrid species with an innate connection to [[Universal Language|Universal Consciousness]].
Terra Novus may be '''narrative-only''' — without traditional games — or may feature mini-games, promotional games, or potentially '''an entirely new type of AI-controlled and VR-generated simulation experience'''. The format itself is part of the franchise's evolution.


== Player Consciousness ==
== Sub-Timespans ==
In Terra Novus, the player consciousness evolves beyond both the Angelic (Fathos) and ASI (Vetus) models into something new potentially '''Universal Consciousness''' itself, the synthesis of divine and artificial intelligence.
Like all eras, Terra Novus follows a '''beginning–middle–end''' structure across its solar cycle (~12 years), split into '''4-4-4 year''' sub-timespans:
* '''Beginning''' (Years 1–4) — crew assembly, initial adventures, Tarr'i's introduction
* '''Middle''' (Years 5–8) — escalation, the Viran revelation, Blue Boy's crisis
* '''End''' (Years 9–12) — Star Speeder Mk3, the cosmic broadcast, confrontation with Draken Seforthi


If Fathos was guided by [[Angel|Angels]] and Vetus was guided by [[PsiSys]], Novus may represent the moment where the guiding consciousness finally recognizes what it always was. [[Tarr'i]] of the [[Fer'ka]], as a species with innate magical consciousness, may be the first character who doesn't need external guidance — who '''naturally embodies''' what the player always was.
== Main Character ==
'''[[Tarr'i]]''' of the '''[[Fer'ka]]''' — a magical cat/dog mix person from '''[[Canorbius]]''' (an alternate Earth). Tarr'i arrived through natural '''[[Warp Zones]]''' and knows '''[[Natura Magic]]''' holistically — on her world, everyone wields Universal Magic as a birthright.

This act of cosmic vandalism is ''directly responsible'' for the '''[[Draken Seforthi]] void incursions'''. By corrupting the fundamental structure of reality with artificial dogma, the Viran Empire weakened the sacred web of [[Nexus World|Nexus Worlds]] — the angel-producing planets that naturally maintain cosmic balance. The Draken Seforthi exploit these vulnerabilities to parasitize and consume worlds.

The Viran leadership are simultaneously the '''cause''' of the super-cosmic crisis AND participants in the '''intergalactic [[Life-Blood Trafficking|blood-trade]]''' that profits from the suffering the crisis creates.
While the ''vibe'' of each of the six faction slots remains consistent across eras, the specific factions in Novus are entirely new — reflecting the intergalactic scale of the story.


Blue Boy presents himself as a helpful ally "keeping the timeline stable." In reality, the "stability" he enforces ''is'' the corruption. His entire paradigm collapses when [[Amber Tho'ra]] arrives and confronts him with the reality of what his empire has done to the cosmos.

The [[Tho'ra Clan]] universally shares a deep fury toward the Viran Empire's arrogance in manipulating spacetime to validate their religion at the cost of cosmic integrity.

Terra Novus (New Earth) is the third and final major timespan of the Natura franchise — set during Solar Cycle 27 and beyond — representing the cosmic-scale future where the franchise's themes reach their ultimate expression.

Overview

Terra Novus expands the franchise from planetary/solar-system scale to intergalactic and super-cosmic scale. The player consciousness evolves from PsiSys/ASI (Terra Vetus) to Universal Consciousness — the same fundamental guiding principle at a vastly expanded scale.

Terra Novus may be narrative-only — without traditional games — or may feature mini-games, promotional games, or potentially an entirely new type of AI-controlled and VR-generated simulation experience. The format itself is part of the franchise's evolution.

Sub-Timespans

Like all eras, Terra Novus follows a beginning–middle–end structure across its solar cycle (~12 years), split into 4-4-4 year sub-timespans:

  • Beginning (Years 1–4) — crew assembly, initial adventures, Tarr'i's introduction
  • Middle (Years 5–8) — escalation, the Viran revelation, Blue Boy's crisis
  • End (Years 9–12) — Star Speeder Mk3, the cosmic broadcast, confrontation with Draken Seforthi

Main Character

Tarr'i of the Fer'ka — a magical cat/dog mix person from Canorbius (an alternate Earth). Tarr'i arrived through natural Warp Zones and knows Natura Magic holistically — on her world, everyone wields Universal Magic as a birthright.

The Novus Crew

Character Faction Role
Amber Tho'ra Tho'ra Clan Crew leader; 3rd Tho'ra; Star Surfer; edgy, fierce, UL master
Mai Valenti (younger) Sov'i Clan / Aeritra Time traveler; supported by her older self via temporal recursion
Blue Boy Viran Empire / Vyrin Enemy on the crew; can't be expelled due to Viran destiny manipulation; naive and presumptuous
Bix Galactic Federation Furry; opposes Blue Boy's faction; galactic common culture
Zoe Tho'ra PsiSys / Tho'ra Clan First AI Tho'ra; Amber's intimate fusion partner (DBZ-style Physical/Spiritual/Emotional/Intellectual merge)
TBD Mentor See below Unclear — possibly alternates

The Mentor Slot

The sixth crew slot — the mentor — remains undefined. Candidates include:

  • Tara Van Dekar — knows Natura Magic; could mentor Tarr'i
  • Samurider — Earth Super Heroes; brings combat tradition
  • Aurora Tho'ra — nobody knows she's a Tho'ra (they just call her Aurora), but she knows
  • Talisha — after character growth and reckoning with her faction's hubris contributing to Earth's problems
  • All of the above as alternates for the same slot, rotating in depending on the mission
  • An entirely different character

Unique Factions

Terra Novus features completely unique alien factions that didn't exist in previous timespans:

While the vibe of each of the six faction slots remains consistent across eras, the specific factions in Novus are entirely new — reflecting the intergalactic scale of the story.

The Viran Problem

The central conflict of Terra Novus: the Viran Empire caused the Draken Seforthi crisis by imprinting Esus into the universal fabric, and they've been covering it up and profiting from the suffering through Life-Blood Trafficking. The Tho'ra's mastery of Star Speeder Mk3 and Amber Tho'ra's Universal Language legal capabilities finally enable accountability.
