The Alchemical Empire

A descendant of the Alternian Empire, the Alchemical Empire is, unlike its predecessor, a relatively small nation. Although its lands only extend to a few planets in their home solar system, it is labelled as multidimensional due to the empire's penchant for devouring entire universes in pursuit of massive quantities of grist.

Exceptionally xenophobic, the entire empire is closed off from the outside; no one can enter and no one can leave, without clearance from the Palace. The population is split into a caste system between godtiers and non-godtiers, which are then further split along lines traditional for the Alternian Empire (dependent on the color of their blood). Shrouded in mystery, not much is publicly known of the Empire's capabilities, though rumors abound of massive treasure troves of grist and powerful alchemical techniques.
