Yet another peek at the HYPER MMO under development currently.
This is not not finalized and changes should be expected.
Concept art is for illustration only.

UNIVERSALIS COMPENDIUM VOL. 395c

Entry: HYPER
See Also: Black Hole, Wormhole, Kerr Theorem, nth Element, Exodus, Bridging, Dysons Swarm, Excaminer

Chapter 1: Introduction

HYPER, believed to have been discovered by the pre-civilized before the Exodus, is without question the most important and sought-after element in the universe. Its importance simply cannot be overstated, with critical usage in a wide variety of industries and sectors, including medicine, biotech, manufacturing, arms, transportation, and faster-than-light (FTL) travel.

Chapter 12: Natural Synthesis

In the brief moment of singularity during a supernova, the monstrous collisions of gravitational, heat, mechanical wave, mechanical work, magnetic and kinetic energies will result in the folding of time and space, effectively triggering a reverse Big Bang process. The phenomenon also creates a bridge that miraculously allows the materialization of dark energy and dark matter into solid matter, in the form of HYPERs.

In the aftermath of supernovas, the presence of HYPERs will become progressively more prevalent as the gravitational field of black hole began to strengthen. Incredibly, HYPERs are immune to the gigantic gravitational pull of black holes

The very existence of HYPERs defies every laws of the physical universe. No sentient civilization have been able to adequately explain, nevermind replicate the process

Chapter 33: Chemical Properties

HYPER, popularly known by its chemical symbol of Ħ, is the heaviest naturally occurring element in the universe. In its natural state, HYPERs typically clump together to form beautiful, free-floating yellowish-gold crystalline shapes.

Atomic Symbol: Ħ
Atomic Number: 288
Atomic Weight: 618.05938
Electron Configuration: NA (the molecular orbitals of Ħ electrons are perpetually changing, never settling into a constant state)
Melting Point: 16,600.1 K
Boiling Point: 24,651 K
Evaporation Heat: NA (HYPERs never evaporate, under any conditions)

[]

HYPERs are usually distributed in capsule, powder and liquid form

Chapter 71: Mining

HYPERs are regularly found scattered in a haphazard orbit located about a quarter to half a parsec away from mature black holes. It should come as no surprise then that the casualty rates of HYPER miners are exceptionally high; it is, by far, the most dangerous job out there.

HYPERs are mined using a reverse Dyson Swarm, an energy harnessing theorem that many believe dates back to pre-civilized era. A large array of excaminers are positioned in a fluid, rotating swarm around the black hole. The swarm will usually start from a distance of approximately +2 parsecs away from the black hole, before gradually tightening its orbit until the gravitational pull began to overcome booster resistance...

Chapter 92: Applications

The extremely versatile HYPER is capable of activating positive biological, chemical and mechanical reactions even at small doses. Some of the more popular applications of HYPERs includes:

Food additives: HYPER increases immunity levels and extends life expectancy of users.
Fuel Additives: From liquid hydrogen to helium rods, HYPERs increases fuel efficiency at an exponential rate, often by several thousand percent.
Alloy manufacturing: The presence of HYPERs increase the strength and durability of practically all alloys.
Agriculture: Farmlands that are sprinkled with a very light liquid mixture of HYPERs will enjoy several decades worth of high intensity and high quality crop growth

Wow looking good MysticalPotato and I'm glad you included my personal favorite - Dyson Sphere as part of the HYPER harvest mechanism!

It seems to follow pretty closely our discussions regarding HYPER as the premium in-game resource we've had elsewhere. I think HYPER should also have ESP enhancing properties for sensitive races, as well as being the primary component in the FTL drive fuel for warp drive ships

Guys I want to open the naming of Alien races and planets in the HYPER MMO to the community!

Feel free to start posting name suggestions below - then I will start a voting thread with 20 Alien race names and a lot of planet names (there will be a lot of planets!). Looking forward to seeing your name suggestions

People are also welcome to make suggestions regarding:

- Technologies that can be researched in the game
- Buildings that can be constructed in the game (including structures on a Solar System scale or larger such as Dyson Spheres: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyson_sphere)
- Any other suggestions

Still finalizing the official MMO Game Concept document - not much further to go now until I release the official PDF.

EDIT: anyone is also welcome to get involved in the discussion on the HYPER forum: http://hypercrypto.com/forum/index.php?board=1.0
