New Thespera

New Thespera is the third planet in the Aristia System in The Vast and the capital world of the Azlanti Star Empire government. It is home to the Aeon Throne, seat of the Star Imperator, who leads the Star Empire.

New Thespera was first settled millennia before the Gap by human colonists who came through portals via Azlant, the first great human empire of Golarion. Just after a few months, the portals failed, stranding the pioneers on New Thespera and rendering their home forever inaccessible. These survivors declared the foundation of the Azlanti Star Empire, with their leader as the first imperator. With their advanced magic and technology, the Azlanti settled across New Thespera and established a new bastion of Azlanti civilization.

New Thespera is now home to a billion human citizens and nearly two billion non-human second-class citizens and slaves. The Star Empire decrees a strict limit of non-Azlanti inhabitants, which is enforced by forced relocation and more severe methods.
