The Nexus Universe

Nexus takes place in a simulated universe of the same name. In Nexus there is an endless number of planets. Each home to unique inhabitants, stories, and struggles.

The Five Orders

A war of ideals has raged for centuries across Nexus, fought between five orders, each with unique values, characteristics, and themes. The orders battle for control of Nexus’s planets. Sometimes coalitions between the orders are formed. Nexus cards usually belong to one or more of these orders:

Luminary Order



Zealous cosmic crusaders bringing peace to Nexus, even if it means war. Selfless, devout, and disciplined. Luminaries won’t stop until everyone bends to a purpose greater than themselves.

Quantic Order



Mysterious, deceptive, and scheming. Quantics advanced technology and arcane knowledge manipulate the simulated universe to benefit them. They claim the victory before the battle even starts.

Entropic Order



Merciless, methodical, and selfish. Entropics manipulate enemies and allies alike to reach their objective, no matter the cost. Everything is a tool they use to conquer and dominate the opposition.

Nova Order



Reckless revellers in chaos and destruction, who slaves to their impulsive whims. Novas are creative, and hot-tempered wielders of technology and the elements who don’t need much reason to destroy competition.

Conservatory Order



Benevolent, self-appointed wardens of all natural life in Nexus. But don’t mistake Conservatories caretaking nature for weakness. If threatened, their primal rage will rally all of nature to stomp out foes.
