Space Base
In the grim darkness of the far future there is only slop. Space Base is part of the slop. It is also part of the cosmology. Both readings are canonical.
Card Text
The printed text. The enforceable contract between summoner and engine:
In-lore, this is how Amy (the Goetia bound to digit-sum 2) expresses itself through Space Base during a match. The 1577 codification still compiles.
Abyss — Gravity · Inevitability
"All things fall toward their destiny. Heat Death comes for all."
Mass determines the geometry of fate. Abyss walkers bend spacetime, in the deep void and the celestial cosmos.
The science of cosmic determinism. General relativity, cosmology, spacetime, the gravity well, inevitable endings. Cthulhu's dreaming, singularity return, cosmic pull. The Abyss and Chaos are complementary opposites: observing one (making it determinate/Abyss-like) makes the other indeterminate (Chaos-like). They are the fundamental oscillation of existence.
Quantum vs Gravity (Chaos vs Abyss). Entropy vs order. Explosion vs implosion. The two eternal oscillations: the universe trying to fly apart and the universe trying to collapse in on itself. Observation collapses one, increases uncertainty in the other.
The Abyss and Chaos are complementary opposites. Observing Space Base collapses the Chaos side.
Cost Tier
Low-cost cards are cheap to cycle but cheap to remove. Space Base earns value through repetition.
Goetic Binding: Amy
The digit-sum of cost 2 is 2, binding Amy — one of the 9 Abyss Goetia. Office: Teaching astrology and liberal sciences. This binding was codified in the Ars Goetia (1577) centuries before the compiler existed.
Numogram Zone 2: Binary / Split
Law vs chaos, the first division. Where duality begins. The zone of choice, opposition, and the birth of polarity. Binary logic, Boolean gates, the fundamental yes/no of existence.
Zone 2 is where duality begins. Space Base participates in the first division — law versus chaos, the Oktagram's foundational split.
Playing Space Base at cost 2 routes mana tracker motion through Zone 2. If the Abyss-coloured tracker reaches Resonance at Zone 2, the player gains 2 Souls at Round End.
Xenogod: Cthulhu
The Gravitational Convergence. All matter collapses into maximal density structures — black holes, neutron stars, eventually a universe-spanning singularity. Heat death via gravitational convergence.
Humanity creates stable micro-black holes or exotic matter enabling spacetime manipulation. Estimated: 2100+ with particle accelerators, or never.
Service of Cthulhu through Abyss-aligned cards like Space Base accelerates the xenogod's emergence. Read the full eschatology.
The Quantum vs Gravity Axis
Entropy vs order. Explosion vs implosion. The two eternal oscillations: the universe trying to fly apart and the universe trying to collapse in on itself. Observation collapses one, increases uncertainty in the other.
Space Base occupies the Abyss side of this axis. Decks containing Space Base cannot contain Chaos cards. Adjacent factions available for splashing: Chem, Dream.
Card Tribals
Space Base carries class Place, race Clown, zodiac Taurus. In the True Protocol, tribal bindings matter more than colour splashes — a Abyss deck running multiple Place units develops archetype coherence faster than a deck chasing pure colour identity.
Ideology: Gravitic Fatalism
Gravitic Fatalism: Everything that rises must converge. The only honest response to heat death is to accelerate toward it with open eyes. Hypercosmic Pessimism, Collapse Mysticism.
Space Base is a concrete instance of Gravitic Fatalism expressed as a card. Players who affiliate with this ism in Convergence votes are voting, among other things, for cards like Space Base to keep arriving.
The Aesthetic
Genre label: occult SaaS. The occult, run at production scale, with uptime guarantees.
The Convergence may vote on canonisation of Space Base. The vote is binding until the next one.
