In this reality the Earth has suffered two massive collapses. After a third world war and a major economic crisis, the situation has stabilized for the moment. The current year is 2158 and humanity has began colonizing space itself.

The Mars colony has been ongoing for 5 years now and the governments of Earth, alongside some of it's more wealthy corporations are looking for future conquests. After a close encounter with a alien invasion, as a Rift began tearing up reality near the Moon - a coalition of specialized agents from across the world took down the dangerous creature that wandered in.

In 2153 a massive tear in space-time appeared near the Moon as a giant creature moved through it, approaching Earth. Mobilizing whatever military spaceships capable of delivering nuclear weapons, the governments tried to take it down. While managing to injure the creature, plenty of debris fell in orbit, destroying most of the satellite network and trapping the people on planet, while also isolating the spaceships crew outside.

Amidst the panic, a second tear appeared and several alien crafts came through. To everyone's surprise, it turned out that the new arrivals where part of a human ran organization called Palantir who came in through the same distortion created by the creature, as they provided aid in clearing the orbit - freeing Earth from it's prison and alleviating the situation.

This led to a partnership forming between Palantir and other groups, as commercial contracts were established allowing the Mars colony project to finally begin. A few years later, Palantir opened an official training facility in Earth's orbit, on a corporate owned space station and began expanding it's activities.
