(elected at age 72, died at age 282) At the beginning of the fourth age, scientists had begun to master core matter reactors. Core matter was discovered near the Kelebus star system, which acted as an energy storage device in nature. It collected energy like a black hole pulls in matter. When it becomes fully charged, it pulsates, resembling a dying star, which is what attracted scientists initially. Under the right conditions, core matter could be controlled, transported, and used to provide nearly endless quantities of energy, as well as acting as a very powerful energy sapping weapon. It could not only stop energy from being used for electronics, but was literally able to suck all the energy out of a sun, or a stop a moving object.

Grand Admiral Aquari is responsible for the colonization of the planet Aquari as a military research colony. The only one of it's kind, all new weapons against the Instruments of the Harbingers emerged here. His entire life was fighting the Instruments. Although it was not a major war effort, the ultimate effect of his reign was that he located the Deabru Empire. Primarily a Drug Cartel, the Deabru Empire paid lots of money for designs to a new ship with lots of cargo space, capable to fighting off any kind of enforcement fleet. Aquari gave them the Jericho-II Class in return for experimental data critical for the design of the Jericho-III Class.

(elected at age 47, died at age 257)The long-term descendant of the third greatest war hero ever, Tyra Jestico, Adria Jestico was the next elected Grand Admiral. Living up to the family name, she finalized the designs for the Jericho-III Class ship, and the J-35 "Striker" class fighter. Put into massive production, the technological gap between them and the Instruments was bridged, and exceeded. The only thing that stood between her and the destruction of the Instruments was their massive size. She began the first Instruments Genocide Operation. The first stage of the operation was to cut off a cluster of stars, dubbed Alpha-Cluster, from other Instruments systems. Without extra reinforcements, the plan was to simply plow through the Instruments systems in the cluster. When the operation was successful, it expanded, and became the first of many GGOs (Instruments Genocide Operation).

After the Alpha-Cluster was finished, designs were finalized for a new warship, the Jericho IV Class. With this new warship in mass production, Adria set off to repeat the process of divide and conquer. Back in the home cluster, trouble had begun again. This time it was far worse.
