In the Vini Nehana system, the planet Encarys was meticulously engineered during the late 29th century. On June 13, 2780, it was officially founded as an exclusive executive retreat for the Pan Galactic Trade Consortium. Conceived as a perpetual hyper-growth tropical paradise, a "Green Jewel," Encarys served as a discreet haven for the ultra-wealthy to conduct their clandestine business, far from the scrutiny of the Core Worlds.
For over four centuries, Encarys thrived as intended, its single massive arcology, The Spire of Dividends, a gleaming beacon of prosperity. However, this era of insulated opulence ended abruptly in 3200 CE. The cataclysmic event known as the Sundering shattered the galaxy, severing all contact with the Core Worlds and leaving Encarys utterly cut off.
The visiting board members and their families found themselves irrevocably stranded on the isolated world. Over the ensuing millennium of silence, their descendants, numbering precisely 100 individuals known as Franchise Owners, painstakingly maintained the Spire's automated systems. They developed a rigid culture utterly obsessed with corporate hierarchy and the meticulous preservation of their inherited status.
While the descendants clung to their neon and durasteel sanctuary, the engineered flora outside aggressively reclaimed the rest of the planet. The once-manicured tropical paradise transformed into an untamed, encroaching jungle. Despite this wild growth, The Spire of Dividends endured as a solitary testament to a bygone era.
More recently, the Vini Nehana system fell under the formidable control of The Mortal Veil pirate syndicate. Rather than engage in futile resistance, the Encarys Aristocracy, as they became known, pragmatically negotiated a protection contract with the pirates. This agreement transformed Encarys into a neutral banking haven and diplomatic ground, serving the sector's various criminal elements.
In exchange for their safety and continued autonomy, the aristocracy offered their ancestral wealth and invaluable pre-Sundering medical technology. Yet, this uneasy truce is showing signs of strain. The tropical heat is relentlessly rising, and the jungle's persistent encroachment on the Spire's protective shields is beginning to fail, mirroring the insidious decay within their own genetic lines. The current status of Encarys is now one of profoundly compromised neutrality.
