They are a subfaction of The Architects. The Antimatter Legion: The Antimatter Legion, or simply known as the Legion, is a massive, intergalactic army of hostile, malevolent monsters led by the Aeon Nanook whose goal is for the destruction of all life and civilization in the universe. Nanook, the Aeon of Destruction, commands a vast legion that brings chaos and destruction to the world. Loyal followers of Nanook have embarked on the Path of Destruction, placing themselves at the absolute opposite of life and civilization. They are known as the Antimatter Legion that spreads terror throughout the universe. The fiercest races of the universe act as vanguards for the legion. There are also evil strategists who plot out the destruction of worlds and act as the brains of the legion. Innocent new worlds are ruthlessly destroyed, while proud and mature civilizations are forced to learn humility while on the brink of collapse. The will of Destruction will only slow down when faced with a dying world. The legion roams the shattered planet, devouring the chaotic energy emitted by the process of decay. Only when the last flame of civilization has been extinguished will they leave contently to search for their next target. Worlds swept by the tide of the legion ask helplessly in their dying moments, "why?" Amidst the cries of despair, the countless evils in the legion sneer so heinously that even the stars shudder. It is said that sometimes the shadow of Nanook emerges from the starry sky to witness the tragic end of another world. Stellaron: A Stellaron, also known as the Cancer of All Worlds, are an enigmatic power sown across the universe by the Aeon of Destruction, Nanook. Stellarons are considered seeds of disaster which cause massive changes to civilizations and ecosystems, and result in the appearance of Fragmentum. According to Herta, Stellarons are a type of lifeform with a special property that tethers them to a certain Path or Aeon's power. They respond to the desires of the world to which it is tethered. However, the cost of fulfilling those desires is a great disaster to the world. Stellarons have been known to be capable of communication with a particular person of interest, such as Cocolia, likely in order carry out the desires of the world. The Trailblazer, who holds such a Stellaron within their body, is able to hear its voice as well. The Stellaron Hunters, who serve an enigmatic individual known as Elio, scour the world for Stellarons and have obtained several. Their intentions are currently unclear; Kafka appears to know the Trailblazer's background and implanted a Stellaron in their body for an unknown reason. Fragmentum: Fragmentum (more commonly referred to as "Stellaron Corrosion") is a mysterious anomaly created by the existence of Stellarons. It causes the typical spawning of corrupted creatures and enemies, appearing as crystal like substances forming off the corrupted matter. Nanook: Nanook is an Aeon representing Destruction, the leader of the Antimatter Legion, and is the overall main antagonist of Honkai: Star Rail. Stellaron Hunters: The Stellaron Hunters are a faction in Honkai: Star Rail. Founded and led by Elio, they are a mysterious organization that collect Stellarons. They are said to work against the Interastral Peace Corporation. Genius Society: Nous stays in a corner of the galaxy, working out the equations of the universe made up of trillions of variables and deriving the unknown laws of imaginary numbers. Once in a while, a spark of intelligence flashes in a mortal world. The Aeon of Erudition sends a signal to its source, inviting geniuses to join in the search for answers to the universe. Many people misinterpret the signal, thinking the invitation to the Genius Society merely represents the favor and approval of the Aeon. Then, they proudly continue to devote themselves to their studies, unaware that the solution to the problems that they have spent their whole lives searching for had already been solved by Nous thousands of years ago. There are also those who rejoice, thinking they have already reached greatness and had created priceless asset of civilization with their diligence and wisdom. They were sure that their life's achievements deserve Nous's approval. These geniuses were eager for a response from Nous, but the Erudition has no time to appreciate the insignificant achievements of mere mortals. Their silence was deafening. Only very few can ascertain Nous's intentions. They humbly ask questions and seek guidance from the Erudition. These enlightened few then disappear from the world, only leaving behind their world-shattering answers. "The answer to the universe is beyond the limits of mortal wisdom." — Only geniuses who can clearly acknowledge this conclusion can break free from the shackles of worldly curiosity, becoming true members of the Genius Society. Interastral Peace Corporation: To outsiders, the IPC is an enormous consortium advocating free trade. From a business perspective, the IPC is a business that issues money and monopolizes resources. From a startup perspective, the IPC is a selfless backing, dedicated to the Aeon of Preservation. When many astral citizens talk about the IPC, they talk about its ubiquitous merchandise and logo. It's as if "The IPC exists whenever there is a transaction." In fact, almost all business transactions in the galaxy are based on the credit system created by the IPC. If one were to compare interastral trade to a sports competition, the IPC would be the top athletes as well as the sports, the venue, and the rules themselves. Its absolute dominance over wealth and relentless expansion has given the IPC the image of a business dictatorship. But the IPC pays little attention to lowly ambitions such as dictatorship, because its spirit hasn't wavered since its creation - Give everything to the Amber Lord, Qlipoth. Wildfire: Wildfire is a peacekeeping faction in Belobog's Underworld which arose to replace the Silvermane Guards after Cocolia Rand ordered a complete lockdown of the Underworld and withdrew the Silvermane Guards. One of their main goals is to lift the lockdown. After the current Supreme Guardian, Cocolia Rand, withdrew the Silvermane Guards and ordered the lockdown of the Underworld approximately 10 years ago, living conditions there quickly deteriorated as the encroachment of Fragmentium and Fragmentium monsters made life inhospitable. Rivet Town was one such place destroyed by the effects of the Stellaron, and survivors were forced to move elsewhere. Natasha, who was forced to abandon her orphanage to make sure she could stay alive and treat her patients, realized that without action, their situation would not improve. Alongside Oleg, she began the organization which would become known as Wildfire. ---------------------------------------- The Astral Express is powered by Akivili, the Aeon of the Trailblazer. In the past, the Astral Express was first bestowed by Akivili. Shortly after the fall of the Aeon, the Nameless took upon Akivili's trailblazing legacy. When the Stellaron began to spread, the Star Rail also fell victim under its influence to the point where the train could barely function at all. As a result, the Nameless faction decided to abandon it after the rails have long been obstructed. The Astral Express was later discovered by Himeko during her childhood, during which she became fascinated about the stories of the engine. She would repair the train years later to begin her journey across the universe. After the fall of Akivili, the Aeon of the Trailblaze, their trailblazing will was inherited by their followers called the Nameless, including the Astral Express that the Aeon once rode on. However, as the Cancer of All Worlds continue to spread, the star rail that the express runs on also fell victim. The express could barely run as the blight expanded, and had no choice but to stop when the rails became overly obstructed. It remained so for many years until Himeko discovered its existence. She was fascinated by the stories the engine and the star rails had in store. She spent countless hours repairing the cracks and evening the dents, restoring the express to its original form. The curious girl then set foot onto the Express and began her trailblazing voyage across the galaxy. The Astral Express made stops at every station, picking up rushing passengers along the way. Many continue to join and depart from the voyages of the Express. The travelers all come from different worlds, shouldering different burdens, and heading to a different destination. But once they're all on the Astral Express, they all share the same voyage experience. And that is why Himeko and the Express do not hesitate to open the doors of the Astral Express to anyone willing to share this experience, even if it means that they hold different agendas at heart, even if some were of ill-intentions.
