Ensconced in power armor, with an ancient relic blade in one hand and wielding the power that moves the universe, the very source of the big bang. You sail across the Caelestus sector in a star cruiser seeking out lost relics, exploring strange new worlds, and fighting in the service of your liege lord. This is an idea a high school student of mine and I have been discussing for a few days. It started as an idea of how to combine fantasy with science fiction, it got into a discussion of how to reinvent the Jedi knight which lead to this idea. Once mankind ruled the stars, now it ekes out a feudal existence among the stars in a new dark age. The king rules from his fortress of Camelot, a 50 km long starship that sails between star systems. His orders of knights serve to protect the weak and defend the realm. His paladins are marked by their power armor that grants them increased strength and endurance. They are walking tanks wielding the Relic Blades, left over from the Empire of Fallen Man. The paladins also call upon a mystical energy known as the Source, it is the cause of the big bang and allows a paladin to bend space and time, to unleash lightning from their fingertips and create life. The party would be made up of several knights of different orders (essentially specialists of different disciplines of the Source) who move throughout the ruins of fallen men aboard your own starcruiser along with a crew of pages, servants, soldiers, and rogues. Together you enforce the King's laws, defend his realm, and seek out lost relics to harness the Source.</blockquote>
