The Cosmic Hierophancy (Xyn: ; tr. Ongihuhma'ting-Anthwa), also known as the Hierophancy or the Xyn Consciousness, is an Elder Race in 'central' Núlne, overwhelmingly inhabited by the highly social, mystical and ancient psionic-beings known as the Xyn, of which all are psionically gifted and are an incredibly functioning example of a 'groupmind.' The Xyn have only recently been awoken from a stasis known as The Shroud (also referred to as The Great Slumber and The Retreat). There are over 87 billion individuals in the Hierophancy, with 40 billion of them being cataloged as 'dormant Xyn', spread across 24 star systems. They currently on share Wind Connection with one other polity, the Drudari Ecumene.
The Xyn are the oldest space-faring race currently aware to the entirety of the Galaxy. They were accidentally awoken by a Drudari science team in -2 PA, whereby they began a slow effort to reclaim previous worlds and awaken dormant populations. Having been awoken in the midst of the Drudari-Ternary War, the Xyn declined to be involved. It was only after the destruction of Ravnikor, and the internal Monumental Debate took place, that the Xyn took on a role as an intergalactic mediator in the conflict and as a frontline xenoitarian effort to provide medicine, food and shelter to civilians affected by the war. As an observer nation in the signing of the Peace of Amity, the Xyn were a founding race of the International Assembly.
By 10 PA, the Cosmic Hierophancy had encountered the race of the Uprahlurongi on Soomerschoon in Meing'dam-Luhlur, a newly discovered wind connection. Following the Act of Union, the Uprahlurongi joined the Cosmic Hierophancy as an autonomous protectorate of the Xyn. Their leader, the 'Sovereign of the Thousand Seas', is nominally part of Hierophancy Governance.
Given their founding status to the International Assembly, and the large part their philosophy of The Custodianship plays in its organisation, the Xyn contribute roughly 15% of their navy on a rotation to the Assembly Defence Force and have created numerous organisations. These include the Galactic Health Authority and the Purple Sash, a border-less union of medical professionals that operate in deadly conflicts administering aid where they can.
