Alpha Prime was once a thriving world called Mariedian, but it was changed forever by the discovery that it was possible to place a living soul inside a metal shell. The companies that offered this technology became superpowers, promising immortality in exchange for service. Some, like the Omnicron Corporation, saw becoming a Soulborg as a path that every Mariedian

had the right to choose or not, but the ZETTI Combine had a darker ambition: to forcibly transform the population into ZETTI soldiers and take absolute power on Alpha Prime. And so a civil war began that has raged for thousands of years.

In time, the war reached far beyond Alpha Prime, and the ZETTI Combine established prison colonies on nearby planets like Isadora, where the remaining Mariedians who resisted the Combine were taken. Key to the ZETTI Combine’s space power were orbital stations that hovered just above the atmosphere, deploying support for their ground forces at a moment’s notice.

All too often, Mariedian resistance fighters firing lasers at slow-marching ZETTI legions would see a blaze of fire descend from the smoldering sky as a Deflectatron was deployed into the metal wasteland. After landing on burning jets, the strange metal guardian spun steadily and projected a field of blinding orange light. Lasers fired at the shield glanced off harmlessly, granting the mechanical infantry safe passage as they drew relentlessly closer to the Mariedian frontline.
