Xyrbyx Mainframes

Xyrbyx Mainframes (or Xyrxyzozyc, as the Xyrbyx call them) are extremely powerful quantum supercomputers constructed by the Xyrbyx all over the known universe, acting as repositories for the enormous amount of raw data collected by the Xyrbyx during the conflicts with Vuokra tribes. Built in secluded, uneventful locations, these mainframes lay dormant for millions of years, silently processing information about the Vuokra in an attempt to discover more efficient ways of destroying them, as well as uncovering their technological secrets so as to improve Xyrbyx technology further. Every so often, groups of Xyrbyx will pass by a mainframe and collect whatever useful information it has generated, feed it new data, and then leave it for another few million years or so. Since the time spans in between the construction of these mainframes are enormous, Xyrbyx Mainframes serve as excellent reference points for the general progression of Xyrbyx technology across the universe, both to lesser civilizations, and to the Xyrbyx themselves. Due to their immense processing power, every Xyrbyx Mainframe is home to a powerful AI consciousness that performs all of the information processing inside of the mainframe, but the enormous complexity of these mainframes usually prevent these consciousnesses from interacting with lesser civilizations.

Two Xyrbyx Mainframes exist in The Cluster: the Ouroboros Mainframe in the Andromeda Galaxy, and the Corvid Mainframe in the Milky Way Galaxy. These mainframes have been constructed long before the emergence of any recognizable civilizations in The Cluster, though they are estimated at being about 10 million years apart in total age. At no point in the recent history of The Cluster have the Xyrbyx checked up on these mainframes, and it is likely they will not return in a time frame comprehensible to any civilization that has ever occupied The Cluster. Though often found right in the middle of several major conflicts, both mainframes have outlasted all known civilizations by a considerable margin, as they are equipped with advanced Xyrbyx defense systems, designed to counter Vuokra military technology.
