So, my universe is called "Fracture" and it's a world where there's a fully developed alien society. People are supposed to be living in peace, but that peace starts to break (or fracture lolll) when an alien kingdom that's supposed to be enforcing the law, begins to break it.

Oooo dang, that's really detailed! I can tell you spent a lot of time on it! I'll go through it and put any comments in a list below I guess.
-Why is the kindgom name in Latin? This isn't an issue necessarily, but why would the people who named it choose that?
-Can you explain a little more about the soul system? Does having more 'energy' give you any inherent powers or effects? If so, what are they? When you die, where does the energy go?

@LiaAron I hadn't thought that much about the soul thing, actually. I just thought of it recently, so I'll make sure to add more information to that. As for the Latin thing, it's the Artifex's native language. Humans on Earth were influenced by it due to a colony of Artifexes that escaped Lex et Ordo when they were being attacked and killed. Lex et Ordo eventually found out, and killed them. (the real reason it's in Latin is because I love the language and I didn't want to come up with some random name for them, lol)

But thank you for the list! I'll be sure to work more on my universe.

How do the spaceships work? If regular laws of physics are in effect, but spaceships can travel to different GALAXIES within MINUTES, you've got some crazy FTL. The nearest galaxy to ours is a couple million light years away, so the starships in your universe are somehow able to travel at an average speed of 22 billion times the speed of light. I hope you've got an explanation for how they manage to do this.

The best possible explanation would be that, in your universe, there are ways space can be bent to reduce distances. If, say, there were a wormhole that connected one galaxy to the next, that would make some sense.
