Amercadian Space Academy Fight Song
Fight, fight, fight, Turn the darkness into light! Smash the night With our terrible might! Oh whatta oh whatta oh whatta sight! Fight, fight, fight!
Give me a wall and I’ll smash it down! Stamp my foot and it shakes the ground! Mash me a mountain into a mound! Chew ‘em up, spit ‘em out! If they want another bout, We’ll show ‘em just who got the clout! Grind ‘em up and sell ‘em by the quarter of a pound!
Fight, fight, fight, Take a wrong and make it right! Foes we’ll smite And our rivals afright! Oh whatta oh whatta oh whatta sight! Fight, fight, fight!
Show me a hoop and I’ll jump right through! Daze and amaze with my derring-do! Nary a warrior that I can’t unglue! Knock ‘em down, stomp ‘em flat, Give ‘em several tits for tat! Send ‘em where the pain is at! Slice ‘em up and serve ‘em in a cheese fondu!
Fight, fight, fight, Turn the darkness into light! Smash the night With our terrible might! Oh whatta oh whatta oh whatta sight! Fight, fight, fight!

Time in Starstruck
Starstruck has a standardized system of measuring time
There are 60(ish) ribecs in a martron, approximately 60 martrons in a marbec, and 25 marbecs in a malton unit (sometimes known as tounit, yesterunit, or nexunit, depending on said unit’s temporal relation to the present moment). The Nargon is roughly (usually just a tad more than) 1/6th of a Standard Cycle and is comprised of 30(ish) Malton Units.
Standard Galactic Units are based, roughly, on the New Terran (known to us as earth) Units that were adopted soon after the expulsion of Amercadia’s Eastern Hemisphere, once the implementation of the Eastern Matrix had added the extra marbec to the planet’s rotation and increased (almost doubled, in fact) the time it took for the moon to revolve around the planet.
Even on planets on which the passing of time has little in common with that of Amercadia, either past or present, the terms “ribec” and “martron” are used to convey the passing of a very short amount of time, synonymous with “moment.”
To summerize:
Ribec= a moment / 1 second
Martron= 60 ribecs / 1 minute
Marbec= 60 martrons / 1 hour
Malton Unit= 25 marbecs / 25 hours aka 1 day
Nargon= 30 malton Units / 30 days / 1 month (kinda)
Cycle= 6 nargons / 6 months (kinda)
Because malton units (days) have 25 marbecs (hours) in them, one nargon is not exactly month. I did some math and it's kinda like if every month had 31-32 days in it. Not a huge difference but worth a mention.

I fleshed out a whole galaxy for my upcoming dnd campaign!
It has elements from: Star Wars, Starstruck, Star Trek, Doctor Who, SO MANY fucking comics, Golden Age Sci Fi movies, Legend of Zelda and Neil Gaiman books
I’ve learned so much about the ocean and space for this. Black holes are so interesting and confusing!
The only way I can keep everything straight is by being trans, queer and stoned.
I’m going to have so much fun fucking around in this galaxy with my friends

Meet the most well known and beloved Starstruck Characters: Galatia 9
Galatia 9:
Either one of two, well-known Molly Medeas;
1) renowned Hera of the Revolution, Molly Medea, or
2) Molly Younger, also known as Galatia 9, the elder Molly’s granddaughter, from her daughter Margaret, by Siegfried Siegfriedson. Sentients from all corners of the Multiverse (and there are oh-so-many corners) have remarked upon the astonishing resemblance between these two Molly Medeas, a resemblance remarkable even for members of the same family. Aside from twins, of course, and with exceptions for those races that reproduce parthenogenetically or asexually
Galatia 9, fairly recent incarnation of the Omegazonian Maiden Goddess, daughter of the Star Mother, bringer of the bow.
She is a U4F affiliated “freelance fighter” Captain and self-proclaimed Poet Militant
Galatia 9 took the name while serving time on Omega 6 where she joined a tribe of Omegan Amazons rather than becoming the sex toy of a pack of Lyconian Dromo Rustlers
Tumblr media
Galatia 9 (AKA Molly Medea Younger)
Galatia 9 (Molly) makes her first appearance in the Starstruck comics in Episode 3 as a growing fetus and eventual baby. Her last appearance is in Episode 19 the final episode (maybe not, you never know) of the Starstruck comic book series.
She has also made a cameo in the series: Dimension 20: a Starstruck Odyssey (>Watch Trailer<) a Table top actual play show on Dropout TV (>Sigh up<)
// Glossary down here //
United Federation of Female Freedom Fighters: The stated purpose of the U4F was “to secure employment for the millions of female fighters who distinguished themselves in the great battle,” and “to bring, if we can, a halt to the senseless destruction of property that has marked, indeed marred, the first cycle of a new era” and “to make sure we don’t wind up back in the same soup we just crawled out of.”
Omega 6: An automated farming disque that functioned as a penal colony, abandoned at the overthrow of the Incorporated Elysian Republic
Omegazons: Omegan Amazons. It is commonly believed that women prisoners banded together on the automated farming disque and penal colony, Omega 6, after it was abandoned at the overthrow of the Incorporated Elysian Republic, in order to protect themselves from certain undesirable elements on the colony.
Lyconian Dromo Rustlers:  An incredibly mean, incredibly stupid life form, native to the planet Lycon. The name Lyconian Dromo Rustlers was settled on these barely sentient beings due to their habit of impregnating and devouring Lyconian Dromo cows

The Cloistered Order of the Cosmic Veil
Of the myriad religions in the known Universe, the Cloistered Order of the Cosmic Veil is the only one with no splinter factions, hence, it is easily definable by its own tenets which are as follows:
1) The Mother is Paradox; Ever present and never there when you need Her
2) Non-participation is the better part of action,
3) If the pond is illusion, then what are the ripples?
4) All things come to she who waits… and waits…and waits,
5) Confuse Karma; stand quite still and think of nothing.
The Cosmic Veil’s cloisters, which are scattered about the more densely populated regions of the settled Multiverse, are round in shape, small in size, and packed full-to-bursting with pious sisters meditating in blissful union with the Void. Or so they say.
The fact that novices are asked to donate all (or at least a good chunk) of their worldly possessions to the order has caused some critics to claim that the Cosmic Veil is simply a very lucrative business venture.
Others call it a front for various criminal activities, though this has never been proven. Certain socioarcheologists have pointed to the similarities between the tenets of the Cosmic Veil and the tenets of the Daughters of the Drowning Isis, a fictional religion introduced in the best-selling Mind Spiders from the Planet Xenon, by the Hugo Award-winning author Ronnie Lee Ellis.

Sexual autonomy in Starstruck
There is no absence of sexuality in the Starstruck comics, if anything the ideas around sexuality are what we would consider more progressive. I think about this allot. In the comics there are subtle and more obvious cases that show how peoples bodies are viewed in this world.
In the very first comic (Episode 1: They Lie Dormant in Some People) we can already see how comfortable Mary Medea is with her body and how no one around her is sexualizing her naked body. Even though the Erotica Ann Droids- (Literal pleasure droids) are designed to look like her she is not objectified.
This is later seen again in Episode 2: Change is in the Heir. We see a glimpse into Mary's past and there she is very casually getting dressed in the middle om nowhere. - Though I have to say the only person present (in hologram form anyway) is Harry Palmer who she is dating at this time. But still she is not objectified in the slightest.
I can list more and more examples but I want to get to my point. I want to say that I don't think that this is anything accidental. This is not a byproduct of anything. I think that the creators knew what they wanted this world to be. I remember something Elaine Lee said (I'll have to find it). She was basically talking about when she wrote the comics and how she wanted to get away from the issues women where/are facing. This meant that she decided, things like sexism and sexual assault simply did not exist in this world.
Personally I love this aspect of the comics, it creates some distance between the issues in the story and the ones in the world, while still being able to see the nuances in the story that's being told.

“If you’re talking about worldbuilding, if I had one piece of advice to give to people, it would be, don’t just read fantasy or read science fiction or read comics. If you wanna write science fiction, read science, or at least go to Science Daily online and could see what new is happening. Or if you’re doing fantasy, read folklore, read people writing what they think about folklore and mythology and all of that too, because that’s where you get new ideas. You can take that, and so you’re not just rehashing, well, “Lord of the Rings”.”
— Elaine Lee | Starstruck Origins with Elaine Lee (Part 2)
