The Terraformer
The Terraformer is an architect of the Praetorians, transforming the lands to match their inscrutable design. Though its full capabilities remain obscure, the seemingly anabolic nature of the Cyberlands stands as a grim testament to the Terraformer's power.

Excerpts

 * "We all have creators. This truth is undeniable. Some call it the engine of evolution, others a [g]od. The choice each of us must make is whether or not to accept this truth."

Uncategorized Excerpts

 * "It is often asserted that the Praetorians are more than a conventional military bent on conquest and that they are actually agents of change, machines created to remake the world in a form suitable to their, or another's, inscrutable purposes. But machines created by who?"

The Protectorate
During the course of the Praetorian War, humanity's great nations crumbled, and societal collapse threatened to plunge the human race into anarchy. Amidst the chaos, rose a new government known as the Protectorate. This new command structure would bring human defenses under one banner, establishing a myriad of linked fortifications across Earth.

The Arid Desert
Before the Praetorian War, the Arid Desert was a lush, green landscape. Today it is little more than a dry and desolate waste, scarred by the terrible conflict that once ensued.

Cyberlands
A mix of ancient machinery and Praetorian engineering, the region known as the Cyberlands is a dangerous landscape for the unwary. The otherworldly terrain and Praetorian-influenced flora offer disturbing foresight into what could be Earth's fate.

Carrhae Station
Carrhae Station was a military communications outpost built centuries ago to regulate coordination between a number of defense stations operating across the frontier. Despite its prolonged abandonment, Carrhae’s vast data stores have remained mostly intact, providing valuable insight into the earliest days of the Praetorian War.

Europe
Europe was an Old Earth nation that once stretched from the Atlantic ocean, to the frozen Arctic. Now its great cities in ruin, the lands occupied only by the Praetorians.

Earth
Earth is the third planet in the solar system and the cradle world of humanity. With Europe almost completely overrun by the Praetorians, humanity fights to defend what remains of its waning empire.

Mars
Following a failed attempt to colonize the Moon during the late 21st century, humanity initiated a protracted terraforming project on Mars. But when the first colonists arrived centuries later, they found the planet's surface overrun by hostile alien machines, beginning what would come to be known as the Praetorian War.
