Tyche is the most populous city on Tempus. Located near the western coast of Der Azim Sea, it found its origins in the need to map and understand Tempus's resources and geographical features. The coastal location along Der Azim Sea provided an ideal base for both land and maritime exploration, allowing settlers to utilize the waterways for transportation and resource discovery.

Tyche was a small settlement formed in 2330, shortly after Aion. The settlement grew rapidly as explorers and researchers flocked to the area, drawn by its strategic location and abundant natural resources. Within decades, Tyche transformed from a modest outpost into a thriving metropolis, becoming a crucial hub for scientific research and interplanetary commerce.

Geography

Tyche's proximity to the coast has shaped its development significantly. The city features a temperate climate moderated by Der Azim Sea, with mild winters and warm summers that support year-round maritime activities. The natural harbor that first attracted settlers has been extensively developed into one of Tempus's largest ports, facilitating trade and transportation across the planet. The city's growth has made it part of a larger metropolitan region, connecting with Aion to the east and Qat'alsa to the south, creating an important urban corridor in this region of Tempus.

Notable Landmarks

• Eden: A massive terrarium operated by Flō (the Flora and Fauna Foundation) located just outside the city limits. This living museum showcases Tempus's unique flora and fauna, serving as both a tourist attraction and a vital research facility.
• Tempus Tower: A large commercial hotspot near the coastline and the tallest building in the metropolitan area. Its upper levels offer panoramic views of Tyche and the surrounding landscapes, while the lower levels house a maze of shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues.
• AEGLE Broadcast Center: Located in Tempus Tower, this facility is crucial for communications within AEGLE's Acolyte program. The center coordinates with crisis centers across the planet and more, enabling rapid deployment of operatives when necessary.

Significance

Tyche's reputation as a city of fortune has made it a popular destination for those seeking to make their mark in the galaxy. Its diverse population, economic opportunities, and cultural attractions contribute to its status as one of the major cities on Tempus.
