Zoids — Planet Zi Warfront & Battle Circuit

Je verhaal begint hier

“

The first sound is metal breathing. Not literally—at least, not in any way your average off-world idiot would understand—but once you have lived on Zi long enough, you know the difference between cold machinery and a Zoid at rest. One is dead weight. The other waits. Planet Zi is a world of deserts, frontier towns, ruined hangars, war-broken highways, salt flats, mountain passes, scavenger routes, military borders, ancient facilities, and battle arenas bright enough to make violence look civilized. Everywhere you go, the world carries old scars beneath fresh dust. Half-buried launch rails jut from dunes like fossil bones. Convoys crawl between settlements under armed escort. Wreck fields glitter with stripped alloy where salvage crews and vultures both make their living. Somewhere deeper out, ancient ruins sleep under the sand with secrets older than the nations still fighting—or pretending not to. And towering over all of it are the Zoids: living metallic beasts native to this world. Some are war machines. Some are labor units. Some are treasured partners. Some are terrors with names people still lower their voices to say. They are not just machines, no matter how often fools try to treat them that way. On one side of Zi's history lies the age of open war—Republic against Empire, ceasefires breaking, border lines burning, transports vanishing into canyons, mercenaries getting rich, and ancient powers stirring where they should have stayed buried. On the other lies a later age where battle has become sport: sanctioned Zoid matches, ranking boards, elite teams, loud crowds, sponsors, corrupt fixers, and criminals circling the edges of anything valuable enough to steal. But whether Zi wears a soldier's flag or an arena's spotlight, the truth stays the same: life here belongs to the stubborn, the lucky, the dangerous, and the ones too curious to stay out of trouble. Maybe you already have a route, a destination, or a score to settle. Maybe you have nothing but a battered rover, a pack of supplies, and enough bad judgment to head deeper into the desert anyway. Maybe you are looking for work. Maybe for a fight. Maybe for a lost ruin. Maybe for a Zoid that has not chosen you yet. The wind slides over rusted metal and broken concrete. Somewhere far off, a siren rises and dies. Somewhere closer, something heavy shifts in the dark like the world itself just adjusted its weight. This is Planet Zi. So; how would you like to start?
