The Nebula Wraith, as legend tells, was born at the very beginning of time, when the universe was still forming its galaxies. In the farthest reaches of the cosmos, where stars are born and die in the blink of an eye, a cluster of collapsing stars gave birth to something unnatural. Rather than simply forming a black hole, the energy and stardust from this stellar collapse intertwined with an unknown cosmic force—something ancient, something predating the universe itself. This energy coalesced into the Nebula Wraith, a being neither alive nor dead, made of stardust and cosmic gas.
For eons, the Nebula Wraith has drifted silently through space, unseen by most civilizations. It can alter its density, becoming as intangible as a breeze or as solid as a star, allowing it to shift through matter or stand immovable in space. The Wraith's body shimmers faintly, but it is only visible when passing in front of stars or galaxies. To most, it is an invisible whisper, felt only in the eerie silence of deep space.
The creature's purpose is a mystery, but its presence has always signaled change. It communicates not through language but through radio waves, transmitting strange signals that have perplexed spacefarers and scientists alike. Some believe these signals contain ancient knowledge, warnings, or perhaps invitations to the unknown. Others whisper that the Wraith hunts dying stars, feeding on their energy as they collapse into black holes, growing stronger with each consumption.
In the depths of space, it haunts the edges of the known universe, traveling between galaxies with no clear pattern. Yet wherever it goes, it leaves a sense of dread and awe in its wake. Ships that have come too close often report strange malfunctions—flickering lights, sudden chills, and the unsettling feeling of being watched by something unseen.
Some speculate that the Nebula Wraith is a harbinger of cosmic death, that it appears before great cataclysms, warning of star systems on the brink of collapse. Others say it is a guardian, protecting the universe from forces even more ancient and destructive than itself. But no one knows for sure. What is clear is that the Nebula Wraith is timeless and eternal, floating in the void, its ghostly presence a reminder of the infinite mysteries of the cosmos.
