The Dicks Form
Dimitri, Steven, and Hugh - three drifters bouncing between crews - are the sole survivors of a fatal brawl aboard the Milker of the Mists, triggered by an argument over a ham and swiss cheese sandwich. A warlock named Lucien teleports aboard, and the four form an unlikely crew. Their ship is christened The Wet Dream by Lucien's mysterious patron.
Shimmervaal & Veridia
After the Siege of Shimmervaal forces evacuation, The Dicks flee to Veridia Three - founding what becomes the resistance headquarters. They spearhead the organized resistance movement.
Project Echo Exposed
The Dicks discover the full scope of Project Echo - a multi-species genocide program. The Thri-kreen Scattering 80 years ago was the prototype. Species-specific phages have already been released across Imperial space, infecting millions.
New Fleetstravaganza Attacked
The Fleetstravaganza, a celebration not held for over a century since Dimitri's disaster, is revived as a show of strength. The Plasmoid Collective launches covert simultaneous strikes on the celebration and all Imperium fleets across every sector, causing catastrophic military losses. The Third Fleet is heavily damaged.
The Cure
Through the Memory Vault on Trellis, the cure formula is recovered. Numerous shapeshifters on Veridia sacrifice parts of themselves to synthesize it. The Plasmoid Collective assaults Trellis, but The Dicks, aided by the Barbarus fleet, the resistance, and the heavily damaged remnants of the Third Fleet, defeat Carlito. Ray gives his life. Voren requests the cure for Imperium citizens.
