To protect Dyspeth from the same catastrophic darkness that gripped Nemesis, the first protectors of Dyspeth, the original Disciples of Twilight, sacrificed themselves to erect a powerful barrier of light around the world that would shield its citizens from certain destruction. When the darkness of Nemesis met the light of the Disciples, the clash between the two contrary forces created a neutral planetary nexus.

In perfect balance, the world's atmosphere appears to be shrouded in an eternal state of twilight, giving the moon its ‘shadowy’ reputation and an ethereal glow.

Exposure to this nexus has had some interesting effects on both those who reside on the moon, and those who choose to visit. Those who call Dyspeth their home will enjoy a prolonged life span with little threat of sickness or disease, while those who visit may experience feelings of restoration, harmony, and even find clarity in obscure Force visions.

Despite all of these boons, however, there are notable drawbacks. Constant exposure to the nexus has created a sort of reliance on those under its influence. The longer you remain on the world, the shorter your lifespan becomes when you leave. The only exception to this rule lies with the Disciples of Twilight, who have developed a technique to cultivate and bond with special nexus infused gems from the Amazriel Caverns, allowing them to remain connected to Dyspeth and glean her benefits while being off world.

Due to the planetary effect of the nexus, disruptions to its balance could result in unimaginable cataclysmic consequences.

    The people of Dyspeth believe in many allegorical deities that inhabit the Galaxy, but do not classify their beliefs as a religion, rather, these spirits set the precedent of Dyspethi principals. Throughout all Dyspethi stories and myths, their many deities are not presented as omnipotent or perfect, but share the same pitfalls as all living creatures. Thus, they are often used in examples on how one should conduct their own life, manifest desirable qualities, and to explain the duality of nature found throughout all beings in the Galaxy - ever striving to find that balance of perfect harmony. While there is no official name for this faith, it is occasionally referred to as, ‘The Way of The Spirits’.
