The Polaris Galaxy is the main setting of Tools of Destruction, Quest for Booty, A Crack in Time, All 4 One, Full Frontal Assault, Before the Nexus and Into the Nexus, with appearances in the comic series, and mentioned in Ratchet & Clank (2016). It is one of the three main galaxies of the Ratchet & Clank series, along with the Solana and Bogon galaxies. It is home to more than 70 known planets and locations. The galaxy was the home of the lombaxes and the cragmites, who fought in the Great War. It is located along the center of the universe, where the Great Clock is situated, giving it some affinity to the Zoni.
The galaxy was ruled by the Great Cragmite Empire until they were defeated by the lombaxes. Centuries later, the last remaining cragmite, Emperor Percival Tachyon, forced the lombaxes to flee the dimension and conquered much of the galaxy with his Imperial Army. Tachyon's defeat by Ratchet and Clank led to the dissolution of his empire, and re-establishment of jurisdiction by the Polaris government; a democratic government which was at one point led by Captain Qwark after he was elected galactic president for a single term, and not re-elected.
Polaris is also home to a number of organizations outside of the Polaris government's jurisdiction. This includes the highly territorial kerchu, the marauding space pirates and valkyries, the peaceful but luddite fongoids, and a few planets aligned with Dr. Nefarious. The galaxy is served by GrummelNet Industries, a company comprising clones of the last surviving grummel.
A few of the planets from the Polaris Galaxy have counterparts seen in Rivet's dimension.
History[]
Ancient history[]
The Fongoids' misuse of time travel causes a tear in space-time that threatens to destroy the universe.
Eons prior to the events of Ratchet & Clank, the Zoni entrusted the fongoids with the gift of time travel, hoping it would enrich their lives. Over the course of 3,000 years, their overuse of time travel and creation of multiple time paradoxes wore the space-time continuum thin. This caused a rip in space and time that destroyed 83 celestial entities,[1] and opened small anomalies to the Netherverse.[2] The Great Clock was created by Orvus to repair the rift,[1] and the fongoids outlawed all technology,[3] believing Orvus would no longer trust them with it.[4] At some point, Orvus came to the planet Viceron and appointed Sigmund as its Junior Caretaker.

Centuries before the events of Ratchet & Clank,[a] the Great Cragmite Empire, at the height of their power, ruled over all of Polaris from the Nundac Asteroid Ring to Praxus Twelve. The Lombaxes then led a revolt against them, commencing the Great War which eventually reached a stalemate.[7] The tide was turned when the Center for Advanced Lombax Research invented the Dimensionator and banished the Cragmites to dimension X2-49.[8] The lombaxes were revered as saviors thereafter.[9][7]
Before Tools of Destruction[]
Despite the cragmites' defeat, the galaxy was still a dangerous place.[10] Nineteen galactic wars, three interstellar battles, one planetary misunderstanding, and a lunar argument took place, of which Cronk and Zephyr, warbots from the Great War, were veterans.[8] The agorians particularly launched repeated unprovoked invasions against peaceful races such as the vullards and the fongoids.[3]
The IRIS displaying an image of Tachyon being discovered in a trillium mine by the Lombaxes.
Percival Tachyon was discovered frozen in an egg by Lombax trillium miners on the Kreeli Comet much later. He was raised on Fastoon.[5] As a child, he engineered the space pirates to scavenge materials for his new Imperial Army, abandoning them when they were done.[8] After buying the support of the drophyds with raritanium,[11] and gaining access to Lombax technology from the elder councilman of the Center for Advanced Lombax Research, Alister Azimuth,[12][10] Tachyon ravaged Fastoon, causing the Lombaxes to flee to the Lombax dimension in the hopes that Tachyon would then leave the rest of the galaxy alone.[13]
Tachyon's army took control of much of the galaxy. Free Polaris formed, comprising all planets not under Tachyon's rule, and resisting the Imperial Army for years as it could not defeat the forces of free planets in the Verdigris Sector.[14] Tachyon was able to control the gelatonium capital, Cobalia, making the rest of the galaxy dependent on Tachyon's rationing of gelatonium[15] and eventually few planets with gelatonium fuel remained not under the emperor's rule.[16] He also conquered Stratus City on planet Kortog and sealed off the Hall of Knowledge to prevent people from learning about the Great War.[17][7] Tachyon took over Zordoom Prison on Viceron, giving life sentences to those who opposed his empire.[18] However, Tachyon's rule was a mere shadow of the power the Great Cragmite Empire once had.[19]
Nefarious discovering the existance of the Great Clock on Quantos.
Meanwhile, Dr. Nefarious, trapped on an asteroid with Lawrence after the events of Up Your Arsenal, was rescued by the fongoids on Zanifar two years prior to A Crack in Time.[4] Though they attempted to rehabilitate him, when Nefarious learned about the Great Clock, he instead plotted to use it to rewrite time in favor of villains.[20] In doing so, Nefarious tricked the fongoids into building him the Tombli Outpost,[21] built an army of Nefarious Troopers, and won the support of the terachnoids at Pollyx Industries[22] to build the Nefarious Space Station.[3]
Tools of Destruction[]
Ratchet and Clank meeting Talwyn, Cronk, and Zephyr at the Apogee Space Station.
Ratchet and Clank came to the Polaris Galaxy after Tachyon had invaded Metropolis, in Solana, in search of Ratchet. Meanwhile, Captain Qwark came to the galaxy after surrendering to Tachyon,[23] but while undercover, provided them with information that led them to look for the Dimensionator (known as the "Lombax Secret").[24] This led them to the Apogee Space Station, where they met and teamed up with Talwyn Apogee and her guardians Cronk and Zephyr.
Clank being abducted by the Zoni.
The group eventually found the Dimensionator, though through a blunder by Qwark led to Tachyon taking it for himself and bringing back the cragmites. Emboldened by his new army, he invaded Meridian City. Ratchet and Clank defeated him and cast him aside in another dimension, after which the cragmites were banished,[25] and the Imperial Army presumably disbanded. Clank thereafter was abducted by the Zoni,[26] who took him to the Great Clock, where Dr. Nefarious tried to access the Clock's Orvus Chamber.[27]
Before A Crack in Time[]
During Quest for Booty, Ratchet and Talwyn Apogee fought space pirates on the planet Merdegraw in search of the Obsidian Eye, a device that could communicate with Clank. They defeated the undead Captain Darkwater, who had merged with the head of Captain Slag to lead an army of undead pirates.
Six months prior to the events of A Crack in Time, a terraklon assassin named Flint Vorselon escaped from Zordoom Prison[28] and was recruited by Dr. Nefarious to serve as an enforcer for the Nefarious Troopers, with the promise of restoring his lost body.[29] Vorselon frequently clashed with the exiled Alister Azimuth, who sought to disrupt Nefarious' operations.[30][31][32]
A Crack in Time[]
Dr. Nefarious reveals the Great Clock to Clank.
Dr. Nefarious, frustrated that the Zoni would not grant him access to the Orvus Chamber, ended his partnership with them and unleashed his Hypersonic Brainwave Scrambler. This device disrupted the Great Clock's systems, inadvertently awakening Clank.[27] The disturbance caused time anomalies throughout the galaxy, leaving the Polaris Defense Force in disarray as many of their military installations across several planets became frozen in temporal rifts.[33]
Azimuth introducing himself to Ratchet.
Meanwhile, Ratchet and Captain Qwark traveled to the Breegus System in search of Clank. Ratchet allied with Alister Azimuth to battle Nefarious' forces, led by Lord Vorselon, in their pursuit of the Great Clock. Following Vorselon's failure to defeat them in Axiom City, Dr. Nefarious enlisted the valkyries to bolster his efforts.[29] Clank eventually reunited with Ratchet, and together with Qwark, they destroyed the Nefarious Space Station and defeated Nefarious, preventing him from accessing the Great Clock. With the Great Clock repaired, the time anomalies ceased, as reported by Kip Darling and Pepper Fairbanks.[34]
Preceding Ratchet & Clank (comic)[]
Artemis Zogg shows Qwark the Surinox Shard used in his Helios project.
Seven months before the events of the comic series began, Qwark met with Polaris' Minister of Defense ā Artemis Zogg in Meridian City, and agreed to endorse his campaign to become the next galactic president. During this time, Cronk and Zephyr were hired as Zogg's bodyguards. Zogg showed Qwark the Surinox Shard, which the Lombaxes had used long ago to manufacture their Dimensionators during the days of the Great War. Zogg's Galactic Panel of Interstellar Know-it-alls were not able to replicate the success of the Lombaxes however, but found that applying negatively charged energy to the shard creates a bridge between realities, while positively charged energy results in simple teleportation. This teleportation ability of the shard could be used to shift entire planets away from threats such as invasions or supernovas, and was the goal of the Helios Project that Zogg and the panel had been developing for years to keep the galaxy safe.
Zogg orders his subordinates to load all Helios project materials onto his ship.
A month later, Qwark ran into his old manager Cyrus, who convinced him to run for president himself, leading Qwark to unexpectedly announce his running for office at what was supposed to be his public endorsement event for Zogg. Four months later, Qwark had won the presidential elections and terminated the Helios Project, citing it as being too dangerous. This pushed Zogg over the edge and he refused to let his work go to waste. Zogg ordered his advisor and chairman of the panel developing the project ā Vorn Garblak, to place everything related to Helios onto his personal ship. Another loyalist of Zogg's and member of the project team ā Mr. Klink, was ordered by Zogg to gather the site's worker bots and meet him at the Vartax Outpost. Located at the outpost was an abandoned robot factory, which Zogg made operational again and used to build legions of warbots. Zogg then set out on a vengeful crusade with his loyalists to form his Artemis Galaxy using Helios' power to gather planets from across the universe, and govern it himself as its galactic president. Cronk and Zephyr remained in Zogg's service and went undercover within his organization while waiting for the chance to contact Talwyn.
Ratchet & Clank (comic)[]
Issue 1: Ears of War[]
Ratchet declares his retirement from being a galactic hero following Azimuth's death.
Azimuth's death had left an affect on Ratchet and he became disillusioned with being a galactic hero. He returned to his garage on Veldin in the Solana Galaxy to retire from his duties and became a mechanic again. The Polaris Defense Force had discovered Dr. Nefarious survived the destruction of his space station, but were unable to locate him and Lawrence. Whilst Ratchet was working on a client's vehicle, Qwark arrived aboard his presidential ship and requested help from him and Clank with a recent crisis in which planets had been disappearing. Despite Clank's attempts to convince Ratchet to help, the Lombax reiterated his retirement and declined. After Qwark left, Artemis Zogg arrived in Veldin's orbit in his warship and had the planet transported to his new galaxy. Zogg's warbots were sent down to the planet to pacify the population and battled with Ratchet and Clank, however they eventually found themselves overwhelmed. Zogg recognized the two and had them brought up to his warship, where the Markazian planet thief introduced himself to the duo.
Issue 2: Friends With Benefits[]
Cronk and Zephyr rescue Ratchet and General Glahm from their execution.
Zogg noted he was a fan of Ratchet and Clank for their services to the good of the universe, and instead of having them killed, sent the two to his Vartax Detention Facility for life to keep them out of his way. Zogg allowed Ratchet to keep his wrench to survive against the other inmates. After three months of imprisonment and failed escape attempts, Ratchet one day got into a fight with an Agorian named General Glahm, who knew Ratchet from the Agorians' invasion of Krell Canyon on planet Lumos. The facility's warden ā Mr. Klink, ordered the two be ejected out the airlock for their misconduct. Unbeknownst to Ratchet, this was all part of an escape plan as the airlock's sector had low security. Just before their execution, Cronk and Zephyr stormed the room and saved Ratchet and Glahm's lives. Clank meanwhile had used Ratchet's wrench tether to steal a cell key from a guard, freeing himself and several other inmates to initiate a prison riot and keep the security occupied. Glahm stayed behind to keep several guards from pursuing and allowed the four to escape in Cronk and Zephyr's ship. For his failures, Zogg had Mr. Klink himself executed and launched out the airlock.
Issue 3: Lost and Spaced[]
Zogg threatens to let Veldin perish unless Ratchet and Clank surrender themselves to him.
Ratchet, Clank, Cronk and Zephyr arrived at the Apogee Space Station and reunited with Talwyn. Cronk explained that Glahm was their ally in the prison whom they were going to break out to send word about Zogg's plans to Talwyn, however when they discovered Ratchet and Clank were also inmates, they had to free them aswell which complicated their plans. After planet Igliak was stolen by Zogg a week prior, Talwyn offered the station to be used as a command post for the Polaris government. Sasha Phyronix became involved in solving the crisis when her father President Phyronix disappeared during a goodwill trip to planet Zaurik in the Polaris Galaxy. Phyronix and Zogg's constituents inhabiting the stolen planets had been forced into slavery to work for sunlight provided by Helios, without which they would perish. The Galactic Rangers assisting Sasha tracked down Zogg's warship and prepared an EMP pulse to disable it and recover the shard, so it may be used to return the stolen planets back to their original orbits. The rangers were too late however and Zogg again shifted his ship and the planets to an unknown part of the universe. Zogg contacted the station and revealed he had transported Veldin into deep space where it would quickly perish without sunlight from Helios. In exchange for Veldin being spared, he demanded Ratchet and Clank surrender themselves to him.
Issue 4: Thanks for the Armories[]
Ratchet and Clank escape with the Surinox Shard, while Talwyn is apprehended by Zogg's forces.
Ratchet and Clank agreed to Zogg's demands, but first coordinated a plan with their allies to track down their position once the two had been teleported, and wait for an attack on Zogg's ship. After being teleported to an unknown point in deep space, the duo met with Zogg, who went back on his word and stated that a regrettable example had to be made of Veldin so as to prevent any future incursion on his galaxy once it is clear what he is prepared to do. Clank dropped a bomb from his chest cavity and in the scuffle the two made a dash for the ship's bridge to find the shard. Ratchet contacted Sasha and Talwyn, and told them to engage Zogg's forces as a distraction while he located it. After Ratchet located the shard, Zogg armed himself with a Plasma Coil and destroyed the ship's geo-shift sphere to prevent them from being able to transport Veldin back to safety. Just as Zogg prepared to execute the two, Talwyn rammed her ship into the bridge and covered Ratchet while he and Clank stole the shard and made it to an escape pod. The two regretfully took the pod down to a now frozen Veldin, while Talwyn was taken prisoner.
Issue 5: Multiple Organisms[]
General Glahm destroys Zogg's warship using the Veldin Planetary Defenses.
After the firefight on his warship's bridge, Zogg found himself stranded away from his galaxy without the shard or a working geo-shift sphere. At the Apogee Space Station; Qwark, Zephyr and the Terachnoids were using Qwark's classified blueprints of the Helios Project to recreate the teleporter used to transport the planets. To function however, it still required the Surinox Shard. Zogg sent his forces down to Veldin to kill Ratchet and Clank, who found their way back to Ratchet's garage, procured Azimuth's Praetorian Omniwrench for a weapon and barricaded themselves inside an underground bunker. Before Zogg's warbots could break in, Clank used an old machine in the shelter to set off an EMP, shutting down the warbots and himself for sixty minutes, and allowing Ratchet time to reach the planetary defense center to procure a ship. Zogg's old advisor and current Chief Warmonger ā Vorn Garblak, grew disillusioned with Zogg's increasingly deranged behavior and freed Talwyn so as to help put a stop to his plans. On their way to an escape orb however, Zogg caught them and pursued the two. After reaching Veldin's planetary defense center, Ratchet found General Glahm, who had managed to escape in a transport orb. Ratchet pleaded with Glahm not to launch missiles at Zogg's warship as Talwyn was still on board. After Zogg had previously destroyed the Agorian Battleplex however, Glahm wanted revenge and proceeded with destroying the ship. Unbeknownst to anyone, Zogg had taken Talwyn and Vorn hostage and escaped with them in a transport orb just before his ship's destruction.
Issue 6: Bros Before Foes[]
Zogg is sucked into a dimensional portal, putting an end to his maniacal plans.
Sasha and Cronk tracked down a despondent Ratchet inside the defense center, where he believed Talwyn to be dead. Sasha convinced Ratchet to return to the Apogee Space Station and use the shard to save Veldin. Whilst the teleportation equipment for shifting the planets was being loaded onto Qwark's ship, Zogg's escape orb crashed into the station and he unleashed a huge swarm of Mr. Zurkon's to attack the occupants. Qwark and Clank were told to take the shard and leave in the ship to keep it out of Zogg's reach. With his enemies occupied, Zogg made a run for Qwark's ship through a teleporter with the intention of continuing his plans with the shard and replicated equipment. After Ratchet, Talwyn and Vorn reached the ship, Qwark recalled Zogg's statement about the shard opening dimensional portals when exposed to negative energy, and after learning the Praetorian Omniwrench used this energy, he told Ratchet to blast the shard with it. A portal was then opened and Zogg was sucked inside, ending his plans for good. Zogg landed on a small planetoid in Dimension A2-66, where he came across Percival Tachyon and the two proceeded to argue over who should rule the planet fragment. Over the next two weeks, Vorn provided knowledge of the stolen planets locations, and each of them were returned home using the shard and replicated teleporter to end the crisis. Following this, Vorn inherited Zogg's old mantle and became the new defense minister of the Polaris Galaxy.
All 4 One[]
Full Frontal Assault[]
Before the Nexus[]
Vendra and Neftin Prog's assault on Pollyx Industries.
In Axiom City on planet Terachnos, the sibling crime team Vendra and Neftin Prog led a violent assault on Pollyx Industries with the intention of abducting some of the company's top Terachnoid scientists, including Pollyx himself. The twins had hired Thugs-4-Less for assistance, and attacked piloting an M-class star cruiser. Ratchet and Clank came to help quell the disturbance and managed to fight the Progs back. In the clash, Vendra was apprehended while Neftin was able to escape with Pollyx to the twins' secret base on planet Yerek. Following her arrest, Vendra was given a record-breaking quintuple-life-sentence and placed into cryosleep.
Into the Nexus[]
Society[]
Population[]
Polaris' largest and most terrifying population was once the cragmites, until they were banished to another dimension at the end of the Great War. The lombaxes were the galaxy's most renowned engineers and were forced to flee to another dimension by Tachyon. Other organic races found in Polaris included the aggressive kerchu and the drophyds. The warrior race terraklons and agorians. The productive and ambitious markazians, who occupy high ranks in government and corporate development. The highly intelligent, but physically weak terachnoids. The technology abhoring fongoids, who live in secluded tribe settlements. The cybernetically enhanced vullards, who devote themselves to scavenging and salvage work. The grummel race is now entirely made up of clones from the one survivor of the species after their home planet was destroyed. Denizens from other dimensions that now reside in Polaris include an unknown number of Zoni and the nether siblings, Vendra and Neftin Prog.
Sentient robotic denizens include the space pirates, who were originally created by Tachyon but now scour the galaxy for valuables to pillage by their own volition. The valkyries, similar to the pirates are an avid marauding menace, but are even more dangerous.
Government[]
Meridian City, capital city of the Polaris Galaxy.
The Polaris government has historically been situated in Meridian City on planet Igliak. When the Great Cragmite Empire rose to power, the galaxy fell almost entirely under the tyrannical rule of the cragmites. The lombaxes led a revolt against them, rallying together an alliance known as Allied Polaris, and taking a leading role in the ensuing Great War. Following the cragmite defeat and banishment to dimension X2-49, the lombaxes continued to lead Polaris' government for many years, attempting to return order to the galaxy in the dangerously unstable wake of the Great War.
Centuries later, when the lombaxes were betrayed by Percival Tachyon and forced to flee the universe using the Dimensionator, Tachyon set out to form a new cragmite empire and conquer the galaxy with his Imperial Army. The Polaris government formed a new alliance known as Free Polaris, comprising all planets and sectors not yet under the control of Tachyon's new empire, deterring him from conquering Igliak. Various lawless regions of Polaris were also occupied by the space pirates, making them part of their territory.
Intense nether activity in the Zarkov Sector, which were perceived as "ghosts", led the Polaris government to issue the entire sector with an Alpha-9 classification, declaring it haunted and immediately evacuating all citizens. The sector's elected official, Mayor Gumblebrick, coordinated the evacuations, and cited an obscure Galactic Proclamation decree, allowing him to legally gain ownership over any material possessions left on abandoned Alpha-9 planets.
For around a year,[35][36][37] up until the end of Tools of Destruction, most of the galaxy was owned by Emperor Tachyon, while the Breegus System was under the control of Dr. Nefarious. After the defeat of Tachyon and later Dr. Nefarious, the Polaris government re-took jurisdiction over the sectors they controlled.
Economy[]
Under Galactic President Qwark's administration, the galaxy accrued a notable amount of debt. Since his inauguration, President Qwark was inadvertently responsible for unleashing at least seven massive creatures of destruction on major cities,[38] incurring billions of bolts worth of property damage. During this period, President Qwark also had a lavish Meridian City retreat built for himself, forged from expensive raritanium.[39]
At the time of Into the Nexus, the economy was doing poorly, spurring mutual fund and brokerage firm workers to join Thugs-4-Less for stable incomes.[40] The Museum of Intergalactic History suffered from a lack of funding, with its Bolt exhibit and Raritanium Wing left empty to make up for expenses.[41]
