History: Alfur's founding was caused by two powerful beings called "demons". The two demons made all life on Alfur, including the Alfurian race. The people grew, but after several thousand years one of the demons named the Koyis became power hungry. This creature gained energy by taking the souls of living things, so it started it’s gaining of power by killing the other demon, the Atretix. Now hundreds of thousands of years later, the people of Alfur still know that the Koyis lingers, and although it does not kill as often, the demon is still greatly feared.

Planet: Most of Alfur is covered in water, and there is only one supercontinent that stretches from the north pole to the south pole of the planet. There are three main Alfurian cities on this continent, Loondy (the capitol) and Loontic in the east, and Vakun in the western mountains. The climate of most of the continent is cool, with slightly warmer temperatures in the south due to air currents. Skies are almost always covered with clouds, making the land below darkened.

People: Because of a war torn and death prominent history, the people of Alfur are not the most hospitable in the universe. Most find them to be held back and too serious. Even though technology is advanced in the nation, tradition (and self-protection) calls for (almost) every Alfurian to carry a sword. As for appearance, Alfurians are much like humans. They are usually of a lighter build due to an increased metabolism, able to run at slightly higher speeds than people, and have minor bone and feature differences such as protruding shoulder blades and small claws. The population of Alfurians has the ability to grow/recover quickly, but maximum population numbers tend to stay low, the record of the planet being 10 billion.

Technology: Almost all of Alfurian technology is based on an energy source called Sovex. Sovex is energy made by the Koyis when it kills, and because the Koyis has killed so much, it lets the vast amount of Sovex it has gained flow free in the universe. Alfurians have found how to harvest this energy. They compress it in collection turbines, and depending on how much it is compressed, it can be used as energy for weapons, power for devices and facilities, or be heavily compressed into metals for building. This means that Sovex using weapons have (in theory) almost unlimited ammunition...though they tend to overheat quickly.
