The Synphonial are a race of clones from a planet called Gage World. The memories and personalities of the Synphonial are governed by a powerful computer called AIRM which sits near the core of Gage World. When a Synphonial dies, their backup memories and personality are loaded into a clone body and reanimated by AIRM. This has allowed the Synphonial to gain immortality, but at a price as AIRM creates personalities and memories in the clones based on ancient forms of entertainment called soap operas. Thus, Synphonial society is plagued with backstabbing and overly dramatic interactions that infuse their daily existence. Because of their continuous deaths and wearing out of clone bodies, Synphonial must continuously re-upload their consciousness into new bodies about once every 30 years. This re-cloning has taken a toll on the psyche of the Synphonial as a species and driven them to madness over the last centuries. Synphonial madness manifests as deep paranoia and hallucinations. Coupled with the manufactured drama of soap operas, the Synphonial are absolutely insane. The original form of the Synphonial has been lost to time as has knowledge of the architects who created AIRM. Today, the Synphonial are complacent and focused only on luxury and fulfilling their own selfish desires. They often enslave other creatures to fulfill their every command.
