In the Astral Nexus there resides a place known to many, accessable by few. A place of re-birth and enlightenement, when one enters they are forever changed, the place is only know as the "Phoenix Gate." Many different abilities are granted to those chosen few that were able to enter. Many Races in the universe have been to the nexus and gone through the gate. Though great power is granted to those who enter only 2 races in the universe make optimal use of the Phoenix Gate's power, the humans of planet Earth and the Gektarians of planet Damathar. While all other races gain random abilities across a broad range of categories some may even have a fusion of different abilities while each individual ability is weak on it's own using them together creates unique effects. Humans are granted power over 1 of the 7 elemental properties of the universe; Darkness, Light, Fire, Air, Earth, Lightning, and Water. Individual prowess over thier abilities vary. Gektarians are granted power over Demonic spirits, there are 3 different levels of experience. Though most will be categorized as level 1 it takes a lot of astral training to even be on level 1 status. Level 1s can only summon their spirit. Level 2s can perform a tecnique to infuse about 30% of their summoned spirit's power, though the spirit will still be physically present though. Level 3s can infuse 100% and essentially fuse with their spirit for a brief period of time, this requires the highest level of astral training. Those who gain access through the gate can train in the astral nexus, they project their astral image and hone their skills. Time in the Astral nexus is not parallel with the rest of the universe, all knowledge gained in the nexus is retained when the person returns to their physical body. A person can only visit the nexus for training 3 times in their lifetime.
The powers of the gate are feared & envied by many. One of the many that want to use the powers for their own selfish gain was Dorein, a being from an unkonw galaxy. He has the ability to absorb the DNA and any inherit abilities that it carries. Unable to enter the nexus on his own he travels the universe findinding those who can and absorbs them gaining their abilities. He's live a long life and has gained near immortality with near infinate power. Though there still power he does not hold, he seeks to gain the demonic spirit abilities of the Gektarians. The Gektarians know very well that Dorein would one day attack. A proud race the Gektarins trained daily. refused to flee from their imenate doom. Six of the strongest gektarian warriors, often referred to as the "6 Dragons", fled to Earth knowing the futility of fighting against the near invincible Dorein. The majority of the others saw their people being killed in the battle and rather than be fodder for Dorein's assault on the universe. Blew up the planet in a last ditch effort hoping to kill Dorein. Unfortunately Dorein wasn't killed but his hopes to gain the demonic ability died with the rest of the remaining Gektarians. Dorein was critically wounded and he drained most of his powers just to survive, he was barely able to make it to his spaceship. The six warriors made it to earth, some how they looked enough like humans to assimilate into the population. They knew humans had equally astounding powers when emerging from the nexus as them. They also knew that Dorein wouldn't die so easily after being caught in that explosion. With what they learned humans were able to enter the gate at around their 18th year and gektarians about the equvalant to the 21st year on earth. Eventually Dorein would be up and about though significantly weaker being that he used up most of his stolen power to save himself. The Gektarians knew this they put their knowledge to use and attempted to learn the foreign cultures of earth and blend in. They knew having children would be the best possible thing for the rest of the universe children of a hybrid nature would bare both traits and make for a more powerful fighter
