Universe Shard (1.0)

Origin
During the Big Bang, spheres of pure energy that were accelerated by the explosion, versus energy that lost speed, obtained a speed faster than light, with the purity and intensity of the energy scaling with the new speed. Most pieces were shot off into space, the pure energy creating a gravitational effect on the matter surrounding them.

They now exist either isolated in space, or at the center of matter, most commonly galaxies.

Influences
Little is known of what a Universe Shard can do, but one in particular, Rah, has been able to bend space, hypothetically create anything that could be created, and influence objects or beings based on an unknown and unpredictable agenda.

Speculations
Collisions of Universal Shards have never been observed, but are hypothesized to be very calm, if the energy is flowing at the same speed.

Dark energy, or anti-energy, is theorized to be able to be controlled by Universal Shards.
