Eons ago, at the beginning of the universe, the natives of the planet Xandar were among the first beings to come into existence; a race of immortal, immensely powerful aliens who seek to maintain order and balance for all species. The Nova Force, a series of bioelectric way-lines criss-crossing the universe, was a source of great disorder and the Xandarians harnessed its power to create the Force Batteries. The entities of the Nova Force, the energies made sentient, were trapped within as the Batteries were scattered to the farthest reaches of the universe, , whom the Xandarians used to create the Nova Force the weapons of their peace-keepers, the Nova Corps. Now known as the Elders Of The Universe, the remaining Xandarians recruited the living planet Sakaar to distribute their Force Gear across the endless sectors of space to living beings with strong-enough connections to the Nova Force, so they can be recruited into the Nova Corps.
