The Empowered Galactic Exile(d)

General

They are a large series of alien races that just went to the planet, not knowing where they were, as the large particulate barrier blocked created a large blue light, so nobody could figure out where they were based on the stars.

After the two psionic bursts, they got super-powered, as the usually-protective barrier of particulate could not block the second psionic burst. 
 
They have all been empowered, all over-a-billion of them, but most of them had very weak powers. 

[close]

 

Military

There is a military ranking similar to Chess at first, but standard down later.
 
Military ranking is given based upon Psionic power. 
 

Top Tier Military

There's a technical top-top tier - All of the Military floats both "above" the particle hole, as it's technically a civilian, and "below" the particle hole, as it can prove it has an immense psionic power.
 
Note that despite being called "Queen" and "King" that does not represent their genders - A lot of people in the military like chess, though.
 
First, you have the top-tier - The Queen which can fire a incredibly powerful beam, just like the rook Rook (see below) but also has a large amount of power storage, just like the bishop (see below)
and the King which can't actually do anything, but buffs everything near them.

Then, you have the side-rankings - The two rooks which fire incredibly powerful beams in straight lines,
The knights which have the power to teleport short distances, but can do it very quickly so they can fake teleporting a long distance,
and the Bishops which never function well near eachother, but has a lot of raw power that can be used in any way thinkable, just very inefficiently.

Then there are the eight pawns - they have a slight amount of psionic power, and were considered civilians until each one of them nearly died, and then elevated to the level of the Queen at that very moment, and reverted back when they were no longer in the middle of danger.

[close]

Lower Tier Military

Then, from there, the powers get fairly randomised, but the amount of damage or support decreases the farther you go down.

Admiral (about 4 per pawn, 32 total)
Commander (9 to 10 per Admiral, 300 total)
Fleet General (3 to 4 per Commander, 1000 total)
Ship General (10 per Fleet General, 10,000 total)

Admiral, Commander, and Fleet General also have Co-Admiral, Sub-Commander, and Second-Fleet General for cases the main one cannot go, and the two have very similar power. The difference is that when the main version fought the Co/Sub/Second version, they won, and thus could prove theirself in battle.

Each Ship General comes with its own ship and crew.

External things

The EGE owns all the land on the planet and, as far as they know, they own the entire planet plus a small area, no bigger than a real planet, around the one entrance/exit teleporter to the planet.

Despite being Exiled, many corporations still come for trade at the one entrance/exit teleporter to the planet, as the people who live on the planet have two good commodities - The Particulate barrier 1 kilometer in the sky occasionally "rains particulate" which can be sold and is often used in bombs, as although selling particulate is effectively worthless with emitters, an entire raining planet might produce some good selling. As a result, they have a monopoly on "selling particulate" <Next to the CMC, which just sells emitters full-out>
 
The particulate on the planet also produces a large amount of sunlight - Thus, weather. This sunlight is how the planet makes its ships, though. At ground level, it is far less than an actual sun, but at point-blank, a solar panel covering the whole planet produces enough energy to just make the matter required for a ship. 
 
This is why there's 10 thousand ships, and mainly pretty small

People

Queen: Felicitas - Exiled even from the Exiled, likes to be a loner. Represents their ability to create a large aura that can be read as "BE AFRAID!" and efficiently use that aura as "YOU WERE RIGHT TO BE AFRAID!"
King: MacGowan - Fairly friendly, is a very good commander, tends to get stressed when alone. Represents their ability to buff people near them, making people want to be near him, whether as a tool or as a friend.

Origin planet + Bullies

[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] in their childhood spent a lot of the time being bullied - They were smaller, physically more frail when they were young. As a result, they got bullied.
[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] had classes to do, and although galactic law states that teachers must protect students on-campus, the bullies often bullied off-campus
One time, [Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] tried to fight back - Too small, no power.
Another, he told on the bullies. Teachers couldn't do anything, no detention or expulsion, the bullies are part of a separate, private school.(edited)
However, [Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] did have two things going for them - His mom was nice. really nice. And he had computer games.
He often used computer games to take his mind off of the bullies - If the bullies tried to destroy his computer, they knew the legal fines would be too much for them, trespassing, breaking property, etc. So they kept their bullying in unseen areas.
[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] happened to be born on a planet with a "High air-psionic richness" - basically, there's a lot of plants, effectively generating psionic power, in the air.
Because of this, everyone on the planet, when they have been there for 12 years, they are tested for psionic power.
Due to that specific planet's high psionic technological power, they could set a person's power - so 12 year olds always choose their power.
As a result, it's also known very well on the planet that due to the way their technology works,
given the power of your psionic ability P,
average psionic air richness (for your first decade of your life) R
various conditionals that can be selected, get a POW value - they are all multiplied together and become POWp
and an optional scalar from these conditionals, though it always averages to either 1 or less, it can hit potentially infinite, Sc,
and the natural genetic power from genetics, and growth, etc. = G
P = R * POWp * Sc * G
[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] selected their abilities - raw power -
This comes with the limitation of either you have to be point-blank, or there is air so you can make a shockwave applicable only to powerful users
and their scalar? Emotional power.
As an added bonus to their scalar, they requested it average 0.001 - the lowest it can go
This leaves them with almost no power most of the time. On the other hand, due to scalar maths, when it does activate, it reaches incredibly high numbers.
[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] goes to school again - school goes as usual, the talk about the new psionic abilities, but his does not activate.
Then he runs into the bullies. They gained their psionic abilities the same day as him.
The bullies use their psionic power on him, and...
clink Zero damage.
Bullies: What? How is this possible? You were being knocked back before!
[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd]: Pain is an emotion, huh?
Bullies: What? What are you saying?
[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd]: Check my selected abilities. They should be available online - I know you have phones.
The bullies pull out their phones, and check his selected abilities.
Bullies: So we can use more power on you? Sweet!
Bullies: i'mma chargin my attack
Bullies: Full power attack - point blank - POW
[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd]: zero damage
See, [Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] had gotten bored enough of the world that his psionic ability never activates except in 3 scenarios - his mom, the computer games, and most importantly - the bullies causing him pain.
The third one could not activate now - [Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] would get pain for a very split second, then it would all flare up into psionic power, and only die down when the pain source was removed or killed him.

[close]

Dropping the last 2 sources of emotion

After examination of other, similar, "Raw-power" abilities, [Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] figured out that ability strength increases with regular strength.
[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] desided to go to the gym - increase strength powers.
Specifically, he desided to go to the boxing area. He figured that nothing increases battle strength better than boxing. While not useful for a good kick, an incredibly powerful punch would be fine.
[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] is at the boxing area, boxing
See, this boxing area was run partially by the Mafia - things happen when you mix poor people and cops into one person, then throw some money at the situation.

[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] is boxing at the psionic area - Basically normal boxing, but you can use your psionic powers. There's a variety of punching items, and some are resistant to things specificaly to account for your power.

He knows that 1 in a million situations will trigger him to use his power in a useful, counterattack way. Thus, he needs to get strong at fighting people without using his power.
He desides to enlist into the tournament fighting, all the while his interest in video games dies down as he begins to take a liking to boxing.
Soon, people realise: Powers don't work on damaging him, at all. People make claims - "He got one of the anti-psionic emitters" but nevertheless, a few are able to beat him out of sheer boxing power, or using their power as a form of movement, not attack
One day, he goes into the boxing tournament. He gets a simple warning: "Stop. Or else."
[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] doesn't take it seriously -  if they try to kill him, it won't work, he's confident in his mom, and he doesn't care enough about anything else by this point.
So he does his usual thing, and he goes home
Before he leaves, he is told - "We warned you."
He goes home
And right as he opens the door, the window breaks, a shot straight to his head
Lethal - or it would be, except for his power.
He guesses what they'll do next - He tries to jump for his mom, but it was already too late, the bullet had already gone through her head.
Suddenly, a 100 meter crater appeared. Simply from the psionic aura releasing energy
He knows what to do - Basing off the fact that it's the Mafia, and they saw this aura, they probably are running off too far by that point
But he still needed to vent - so he does the one thing he can do to teach the Mafia not to mess with him
The boxing arena - and starts a FFA tournament
And the rules are "If you're unconscious, you lose. If you get knocked out, you lose."

Users could join mid-game
Not like it mattered
[Cδdεηαmε: Gδd]'s form of venting: Waiting for someone to join the tournament
then insta punching them
Realising nobody wanted to do his tournament, he closed it down - but he still needed to vent
So for the next hour, he signs up into any tournament he can get into, with psionic powers.
And simply due to venting, he beats them all.
He'd have done more - but the next 3 hours, tournaments were shut off completely, because anyone who tried to open one lost
Later, [Cδdεηαmε: Gδd] would try to go to box again - But now everyone feared him. There was no enjoyment to be had, if everyone stopped the moment he walked in, and surrendered the moment they fought.

King: Hmm. I didn't think of this before...

King: Hello, Tierra Prima Collective! 
 
King: I didn't think about this before, but I don't have a way to figure out our location relative to the rest of the universe. 
 
King: After we were exiled from the various psionic blasts, the large particle barrier stopped signals from going in or out, so we could not connect to new updates, or see our location in space.
 
King: As a result, we don't know our location for our one teleporter. Teleports from the planet to... unknown location and back. 
 
I have a solution: [Large number] 
 
That is our distance from the largest black hole in the galaxy, Sagittarius A. 
We'll be sending out a psionic pulse every 10 seconds for an hour, stronger than anything in that circle, but weaker than a supernova, black hole merging, or even neutron star merging. 
This should make it consistent and cannot be blamed for a massive-star merging, but is weak enough not to be noticed by every sensor in the galaxy. 
 
This should mean you just search in a circle of radius of the number above, and just keep searching for a large psionic pulse every 10 seconds. 
 
Once you've figured out our coordinates, can you come help? 
 
We are inside the stars area, not floating about in space, so looking at the surface area of a sphere would work. 
 
If you cannot find us in that one hour, just send us a quick message {don't actually} and we'll do the same thing for another hour. 
 
See you then!
||>>Transmission End<<||

King: Queen, can you launch out a fairly strong psionic pulse every 10 seconds for another hour? 
It doesn't need to be strong enough to take out all your energy, but it should feel like a workout. You should be able to.... do whatever you do while you do that.

Queen: ... go away

King: You can do it alone, if you want.

Commander (9 to 10 per Admiral, 300 total)
Fleet General (3 to 4 per Commander, 1000 total)
Ship General (10 per Fleet General, 10,000 total)

Admiral, Commander, and Fleet General also have Co-Admiral, Sub-Commander, and Second-Fleet General for cases the main one cannot go, and the two have very similar power. The difference is that when the main version fought the Co/Sub/Second version, they won, and thus could prove theirself in battle.

Each Ship General comes with its own ship and crew.

External things

The EGE owns all the land on the planet and, as far as they know, they own the entire planet plus a small area, no bigger than a real planet, around the one entrance/exit teleporter to the planet.

Despite being Exiled, many corporations still come for trade at the one entrance/exit teleporter to the planet, as the people who live on the planet have two good commodities - The Particulate barrier 1 kilometer in the sky occasionally "rains particulate" which can be sold and is often used in bombs, as although selling particulate is effectively worthless with emitters, an entire raining planet might produce some good selling. As a result, they have a monopoly on "selling particulate" <Next to the CMC, which just sells emitters full-out>
 
The particulate on the planet also produces a large amount of sunlight - Thus, weather. This sunlight is how the planet makes its ships, though. At ground level, it is far less than an actual sun, but at point-blank, a solar panel covering the whole planet produces enough energy to just make the matter required for a ship. 
 
This is why there's 10 thousand ships, and mainly pretty small

||>>Sending transmission<<||
King: Hello, Tierra Prima Collective! 
 
King: I didn't think about this before, but I don't have a way to figure out our location relative to the rest of the universe. 
 
King: After we were exiled from the various psionic blasts, the large particle barrier stopped signals from going in or out, so we could not connect to new updates, or see our location in space.
 
King: As a result, we don't know our location for our one teleporter. Teleports from the planet to... unknown location and back. 
 
I have a solution: [Large number] 
 
That is our distance from the largest black hole in the galaxy, Sagittarius A. 
We'll be sending out a psionic pulse every 10 seconds for an hour, stronger than anything in that circle, but weaker than a supernova, black hole merging, or even neutron star merging. 
This should make it consistent and cannot be blamed for a massive-star merging, but is weak enough not to be noticed by every sensor in the galaxy. 
 
This should mean you just search in a circle of radius of the number above, and just keep searching for a large psionic pulse every 10 seconds. 
 
Once you've figured out our coordinates, can you come help? 
 
We are inside the stars area, not floating about in space, so looking at the surface area of a sphere would work. 
 
If you cannot find us in that one hour, just send us a quick message {don't actually} and we'll do the same thing for another hour. 
 
See you then!
||>>Transmission End<<||

King: Queen, can you launch out a fairly strong psionic pulse every 10 seconds for another hour? 
It doesn't need to be strong enough to take out all your energy, but it should feel like a workout. You should be able to.... do whatever you do while you do that.

Queen: ... go away

King: You can do it alone, if you want.

The Empowered Galactic Exile(d)

General

They are a large series of alien races that just went to the planet, not knowing where they were, as the large particulate barrier blocked created a large blue light, so nobody could figure out where they were based on the stars.

After the two psionic bursts, they got super-powered, as the usually-protective barrier of particulate could not block the second psionic burst. 
 
They have all been empowered, all over-a-billion of them, but most of them had very weak powers. 

[close]

 

Military

There is a military ranking similar to Chess at first, but standard down later.
 
Military ranking is given based upon Psionic power. 
 

Top Tier Military

There's a technical top-top tier - All of the Military floats both "above" the particle hole, as it's technically a civilian, and "below" the particle hole, as it can prove it has an immense psionic power.
 
Note that despite being called "Queen" and "King" that does not represent their genders - A lot of people in the military like chess, though.
 
First, you have the top-tier - The Queen which can fire a incredibly powerful beam, just like the rook Rook (see below) but also has a large amount of power storage, just like the bishop (see below)
and the King which can't actually do anything, but buffs everything near them.

Then, you have the side-rankings - The two rooks which fire incredibly powerful beams in straight lines,
The knights which have the power to teleport short distances, but can do it very quickly so they can fake teleporting a long distance,
and the Bishops which never function well near eachother, but has a lot of raw power that can be used in any way thinkable, just very inefficiently.

Then there are the eight pawns - they have a slight amount of psionic power, and were considered civilians until each one of them nearly died, and then elevated to the level of the Queen at that very moment, and reverted back when they were no longer in the middle of danger.

Lower Tier Military

Then, from there, the powers get fairly randomised, but the amount of damage or support decreases the farther you go down.

Admiral (about 4 per pawn, 32 total)
Commander (9 to 10 per Admiral, 300 total)
Fleet General (3 to 4 per Commander, 1000 total)
Ship General (10 per Fleet General, 10,000 total)
