Welcome to the Milky way. Home of humans and so many other races. In the rise and fall of galactic empires now is an interesting time. Old fallen empires rise again, new empires discover FTL travel for the first time, and revolutions form new empires. Now a great era in the timeline of the galaxy begins, what part will you play?

Fill this out where it says to:

Name:

Race: If not human be creative, if you make a race of humans with makeup or pointy ears without a very good reason I will slap you.

Color: Single solid colors

Fluff: One or two paragraphs please. You may be rewarded for genuine effort.

Government Type: Get political, please.

Economy Type: Get political. Command, cooperative, etc.

Religion/Ideology: What do your people believe in?

FTL Method: How do your people get around?

To be filled in by GM:

Population: (generated by GM) (+-/turn)

Food: Adequate

Raw Currency: (generated by GM) (+-/turn)

Legitimacy: (generated by GM)

Culture: (generated by GM)

Industry: (generated by GM)

Policies: None

Unique Buildings: (generated by GM)

Defenses: (generated by GM)

Military Units: (generated by GM)

Naval Units: (Generated by GM)

Resources/Quantity: (generated by GM) (amount)

Technology: (generated by GM)

Trade Routes: [none initially]

Planets: 1

Bonuses/Eccentricities: (generated by GM)

Rules:

- You have 3 actions, a research slot, and a random nation event slot. The 3 actions can be used for anything but research. You can research one thing at a time and rolled to progress. The random nation event slot is rolled every turn and something may happen to your nation, good or bad. Put fluff in to add direction to the result.

- It takes an action from a player to give a resource to another and it may take time to reach them depending on distance and travel technology. Giving technology is the same.

- Over-extension happens when you have more planets than you do culture. People will be unhappy and might revolt. Can also be used to peacefully take over border planets.

- Remember to build up your planets or your people may complain. Build up, Expand out, or build satellites to house more people.

- Fluff up your actions and slots with how your people go about doing something and you may get different results. This is especially important for special resources and ancient artifacts.

- No nation is truly good or truly evil, and no one believes themselves to be evil, get cultural and have fun. Your not playing angels and demons here.

- Expansion is just the claiming of more space, relatively easy. You may find planets during these actions but most will be found through exploration.

-I have the right to add more rules if I damn please.

Name: The Yiyatun Commonwealth

Race: The Yiyatun - visually a hybrid between timberwolves and raccoons, with dexterous paws. Carnivorous and fairly pack orientated, with clans comprising of multiple packs, and Great Clans comprising of multiple clans.

Color: Red

Fluff: The Yiyatun Commonwealth was formed after the Great Clan War; sick of the constant warring of the planetbound clans, the minority spacefaring clans dropped rocks until the groundling clans submitted. They formed a council of all the Yiyatun clans and Great Clans, to work for the Common Wealth of all Yiyatunkind.

Government Type: Clan Council with Speaker. Every Clan has a seat and vote in the Council, as well as the Great Clans. The Speaker is the Commonwealth Pack Leader, chosen by majority council vote, and may be subject to challenge at any time - or removal by 3/4ths vote.

Economy Type: Open Membership Guild based Societies. There is often, but not always, an overlap between clans and guilds. Clans may be entered to by marriage or adoption, but Guilds can have members from multiple clans.

Religion/Ideology: Manifest Destiny. According to Yiyatun legends and myths, the Gods came from the Heavens with the Yiyatun were young, and taught them the secrets of civilization. The command, "Conquer the World and the Stars", comes from the very gods themselves, and even the most secular of clans believe that it is right that the Yiyatun rule everything.

FTL Method: Honorverse-style Hyperdrive. Multiple hyper-bands, the deeper you go the faster you go, but with a top relative speed threshold for each layer.

Name: United Jute Dominions

Race: Genetically modified humans

Color: White, I guess. Stupid dmwannabe took red

Fluff: Once upon a time long long ago many races populated Earth. They were varied and ultimately all just mutations of humans from a previous out of hand conflict. It was there that the First Jute Dominion was born. It found many things in the ruins of the old world and quickly advanced itself as a paragon of science, honor, and military might. It was the Jute Dominion that stood against the miscreations of science, the alien invasions, and ultimately the invasion of the Angels that forced the Dominion to nuke Earth into an irradiated ball of dust. From their Moon base they rebuilt and expanded to colonize the rest of the Solar System. They reclaimed earth and built it into a beautiful homeworld once again. Now they look outward toward other systems in other areas of the world. Having discovered FTL through star mode pathing and using their expertise at orbital habitat construction and terraforming they look to expand the Dominion beyond the confines of the Solar System and take their place on top of the Galaxy.

Humanity. Fuck yeah.

Government Type: Feudalism

Economy Type: Command

Religion/Ideology: The Dominion's politics are simple. Everyone not human can get fucked. It wasn't elves or dwarves or aliens that stopped the first few alien attacks on Earth. It was the Jutes. It was humanity. But mostly the Jutes. No one else can really be trusted. Sure, we might trade with aliens, we might even fight alongside aliens, but aliens will -never- be humans and so aliens will -never- be trustworthy. They're useful, but at the end of the day Humanity comes first.

FTL Method: Star node pathing: Every star has a link to another star - somewhere. Travel is very quick, but jumps have to be made between linked stars.

Name:

Defunctorum hominum Imperii

Race: Human-ish

Color: Orange

Fluff: The dis-assembly of the Terrej Hegemony at the end of the Trixlian Hive Wars saw a massive influx of Terrans to many of the border worlds as their own were torn apart by the Marauding Collector Fleets of Hive G'thagn, who refused to acknowledge the Accord of Janus, and were far to powerful and influential for the Hive-Queen Solidarity to openly oppose. And so many a newly independent world burned to the orbital plasma Casters of the Hivers. In these dying days, the remnants of the Intelligence branch of the Hegemony, ONI, worked day in and day out on the completion of a secret project to make these grub bastards pay for what they had done to the pinnacle of Human power in the Galaxy. A new breed of human, or rather, what was once humans, altered with various genes and other genetic material from the various species mankind encountered among the void. These new humanoids, dubbed "Dominus" were very special creatures indeed. They were green, as they had chloroplast in their skin to absorb energy from sunlight; also tall, with an average height of around seven feet to be exact. These wear a few of their special features, all owed to a 22 new organs implanted into the human genome which gave them super human abilities, and utterly made them alien to base-line humans as well. They were the machinations of men doomed to die, and as such, they were cruel mockeries of the once elegant human form, built only for war. The were brutes, and had another odd feature about them. They were only male, and "reproduced" though the genetic manipulation of baseline human teenage males. One by one, ONI's secret bases were uncovered and destroyed, the men and women working their tortured and vivisected to reveal details to the new plan humanity had seemingly formulated to strike back, but none relented and doomed it to failure. Still, the bugs marched on, determined to stop this new unknown that seemed poised to provide them with even more simian-related trouble. As they neared the last ONI base, confident that the last bastion that held out against the swarm, an odd thing occurred; From the wreckage of the bombarded asteroid base, a craft emerged. Decorated in the Gothic style of Old Terra, it burst forth from the molten slag drifting from the refuse. Guns blazing, it charged into the Hiver line, a massive volley of boarding torpedos slamming into the cluster of Grub Ships. In less then a half hour it was over; The Bug fleet destroyed. The jamming equipment in the station was kept intact, so the damned bugs only received one last quip of information from their now destroyed fleet. It was a video from inside the command vessel of the splinter fleet, detailing a massive explosion in the outer hull in time with the impact of the boarding torpedo's launched by the human vessel. Several massive humanoid forms strolled out from the inferno, a possible leader's quote the last thing the video captured. It was transcribed as "…..-emption of ou-….- orfathers. We are man reborn…." A brief pause in the video as the figures level weapons on the charging Hiver crew, a call goes up from the Figures "OUR ARMOR IS CONTEMPT, OUR SHIELD IS DISGUST, OUR SWORD IS HATRED. IN THE NAME OF THE PROGENITORS, LET NONE SURVIVE!" The feed cuts to black….

Name: Delgani Kingdoms

Race: Delgan (4 legged 2 armed vertebrates analogues with 3 eyes and a mouth. Have smooth skin like scales, and spines running along the back)

Color: Blue

Fluff: The Delgan are from a warm tropical planet covered with loose plants and drifting seas. The are hierarchical in nature, and pack based. They have for millennia fought each other in wars and ideological conflicts. This had slowed their rate of growth greatly, but allowed them to create a strong industrial base from what they have.

They started solar system colonization a hundred years ago, delganforming 2 other planets and mining several hundred asteroids. The competition is pace is fierce, as it is a free market and little in the way of regulating it. Thus there are myriads fighter craft, corvettes and frigates and freighters flying around the system and more pumped out each day to fuel the booming growth in the system.

Government Type: Hegemony, a representative for life is elected and rules from Delgan.

Economy Type: Free market very little regulation.

Religion/Ideology: Struggle makes the individual and pack stronger, the strongest smartest and toughest survive and grow, while the others do not. We struggle as one people, pulling in a thousand directions, and thus we grow.

FTL Method: Gravitic correspondence. The ftl drive uses a sufficiently dense gravity well to open a hyperspace rift that puts the ship through a large a mount of space in short time. The distance covered is dependent on the gravity well used, and how close the ship skirts it.

Name: Salmagundi

Race: Salmagundi has unknown physical properties. The original composition of Salmagundi has been lost.

Color: Black and White or Orange and Blue.

Fluff: Salmagundi has many names, but is generally agreed by scientists and philosophers to be a massive quasi-eldritch bio-organic space parasite. Like other plagues, Salmagundi spreads across the vaccum aboard ships like a disease and mutilates the crew into forms that are more effective intermediaries; when planets are encountered Salmagundi can rework entire worlds into nightmarish organic factories. Indeed, Salmagundi is a galactic threat par-excellence: it gains intelligence as it moves, consumes, and devours anything that it makes contact with. The initial race that made contact with Salmagundi has been lost to history, but have subsequently been reviled as villains for whatever they have done to introduce Salmagundi to the universe.

With that said, Salmagundi's ultimate purpose in this universe is unknown. It seems to have hidden political objectives that it keeps hidden – some speculate it only attempts to blight other realms of existence in order to prevent itself from being exterminated entirely. It is therefore easily said that Salmagundi is a menace and respects no race or people; it is both clever and vicious, and works feverishly to pursue whatever goals it has. This of course does not flag Salmagundi as a stupid warmonger: it can and does barter, negotiate, and respect contract – for a time. For Salmagundi, only survival and growth are a priority: notions such as honor, pity, mercy, and justice are lacking in substance to it.

Salmagundi typically expands itself by infecting new ships by coating their hulls, gaseous dispersal, or delivery by other means. It generally eschews fighting in preference to infection.

Salmagundi can also maintain autonomy for certain individuals if so required.

Government Type: Hive-Mind [Semi-Plural]

Economy Type: Unlimited Command

Religion/Ideology: Everything is Salmagundi.

FTL Method: Salmagundi travels by whatever drive system it can steal, barter, or imitate. If given enough time Salmagundi can fashion what has been understood as a "Gundi-Complex"; an advanced organic drive system of unknown properties.

Name: Gormites

Race: A morphing race of insect-like drones, capable of rapidly mutating new adaptations. Primarily bases the mutations on wildlife from around the universe, but capable of creating them on their own, at a decelerated rate.

Color: Brown

Fluff: Long ago, the first Queen was born. In accordance her great plan, the drones she birthed rapid began bringing samples of nearby animals to Her to replicate and improve on. By the time the last of the original drones had died, She had managed to produce massive drones capable of survival in the vacuum of space. After colonizing a small planet, the secret to FTL travel was discovered in the most unlikely of places. The alpha predator of the island world had evolved a method of creating small wormholes in space and time, allowing it to pounce on prey before it could even sense the predator. Incorporating this style of movement into the droneships allowed the Queen to seed star systems with more eggs, modified to become Queens like Herself.

Government Type: Queens are the only truly sentient beings, and defer to each other based upon blood relations. The eldest queen is revered as a god, capable of broadcasting her commands to all of the species

Economy Type: Total Communism

Religion/Ideology: ALL HAIL THE GREAT MOTHER!

FTL Method: Wormhole generation

Name: The Harvesters

Race: Human with Semi-AI assistance

Color: Dark green or if not available then any shade of green

Fluff: The harvesters were stuck in their own system once upon a time. Every attempt to travel to other systems ended in failure. Every attempt to create FTL failed. Except one. But even that one was massively risky.

The harvesters had developed the Infinite Improbability Drive. Deciding against using it due to the uncontrollable nature of it they went back to regular study and industry. But the problem could not be ignored forever. Resources were dwindling their planet dying and the populace too numerous to be contained any longer.

Out of desperation they had their choice made for them. It was use the drive or die. And so the first Planet ship was built, a massive construction the size of a large moon. This drained the last of the resources their homeworld could offer and the planet fell to destruction shortly afterwords. The stress of strip mining so much material from it and the surrounding asteroids effectively ripped the heart of the planet out.

They made their first jump 3 days after the northern continents collapsed inwards exposing the planets core.

The harvesters have gone on since then. Jumping randomly throughout the galaxy. When they find an uninhabited planet they strip the place of everything starting with the surface and when that is done cracking open the planet and consuming everything inside it: Metals, Water, soil, fuels, wildlife, etc. When the harvesters are done there is nothing left of the planet except barren asteroids.

They use these resources to build more planet ships, maintain the ones they have, entire ships dedicated to farming and animal care, and build combat craft, and among other things.

Once everything is taken, repairs made, and new ships built they move on to the next system. They link all the ships together otherwise its possible if they do it seperately that they will wind up in different places never to see each other again.

Over time They have built automated probes that harvest asteroids and other non planet sized things automatically to assist in upkeep and maintenance.

Government Type: Elected Captaincy dictatorship. Each planet ship has its own elected representative that is in charge of handling the stuff in regards to their own ship. However above the PS captains is the Commander. He has unrivaled power and once elected stays in power for life. A new commander is selected by the PS captains upon the old ones death. (think Pope style elections)

Economy Type: Command

Religion/Ideology: Various gods from the homeland are worshipped there isn't really a state recommended religion as the government maintains strict seperation of church and state.

>Basically hivemind humans to who want to uncover the secrets of the universe and shit out research and culture.

Once but long ago a group of scientists and engineers gathered together as the world faced itself on the brink of War. Chaos and conflict ruled the nations, and it seemed like mankind's destructive tendencies would lead to their inevitable downfall.

These scientists got together to solve the problem before it destroyed their world, but where unsure how, until they came up with a vast plan.

They would build a device, a device capable of altering the very structure of the human mind, a device which would transmit the thoughts and information of not only themselves but of everyone else on the planet at once.

So all people see things from the other's perspective.

And upon activation. . .it worked! Once the whole planet realized the severity of the destruction that would be wrought, and how completely pointless it would be, the great nuclear war that would have otherwise engulfed the planet stood down.

With the seeds planeted by these few scientists, they also inadvertantly changed another aspect of their species culture. A strong desire for knowledge, understanding, and to explore the cosmos! Thus, unitied at last on every front, they set to work building roadways into the stars

Government Type: Hivemind Consensus Network

>Basically everyone votes on everything

Everyone retains their individual personality, desires, and wishes, yet is part of the vast hivemind. All decisions are made by a unanimous and total direct vote after a series of telepathic debates which are resolved in mere moments.

The process is relatively simple. A problem or issue presents itself, and is brought to the masses. The collect sum of the information of the planet is brought forth from everyone on the planet, as all sides are able to not only present their case, but recieve the same accurate information from the other side, and thus all sides of any debate see things from "the other's perspective" as well as their own.

Within moments, since all sides share the exact same information and perspective, a unified opinion is formed after much philosophical and analytical discussion, one which is, literally, unanimously chosen by all persons since any dissent have been resolved.

And all of this happening at the speed of thought for every decision ranging from whether we should engage in an international trade deal, or whether that chair ought to be closer or father away from the door.

How an individual handle such vast volumes of information and debate from the entire planet you may ask? Easy. The low level processes are almost entirely handled by the subconscious, rather than conscious thought, thus freeing up the individual to make his own choices for his own tastes. It's the major big things which affect the species as a whole, that require conscious debate.

Economy Type: Hivemind Command Economy

>Basically everyone knows where everything is supposed to go

Thanks to everyone knowing everything anyone else knows, all economic decisions are made in a way that ensures maximum efficiency, and satisfies those involved.

A person who enjoys being a doctor and able-bodied for the task not only has access to the brains and minds of all doctors on the planet, but also gets to make his case that he should perform these actions as he is the most interested and capable of not only performing it, but also advancing the science. Those with the strongest desire tend to get the job, while those who would act lackluster often get introspected for what job they would find the most satisfying, and are given that instead.

Resources are distributed to exactly where needed, when needed, and with no waste with the exception of luxury goods or cultural goods.

Religion/Ideology:

>Basically believe in whatever you want to believe, there are various religions

Varied and diverse, religion, along with food, sex, and other certain aspects, are one of the things not governed or heavily influenced by hivemindism. Although, generally speaking, there is a strong pressure to create a unified sense of morals and goodwill towards all persons.

FTL Method: Absolute Position Intangibility Drive (APID)

>Basically become intangible and stand still while the universe moves around you, then become solid again

Did you know, the Universe is constantly in motion? Not only do planets, solar systems, and the Galaxy itself move but even space expands just as it has ever since the Big Bang. Space itself is expanding and moving.

The Absolute Position Intangibility Drive is by far our proudest scientific achievement. When activated, it does two things at once, it pulls the ship out of real space, not into any pocket dimension or warp space, but by altering the "frequency" of the atomic and subatomic structure of the ship, renders it otherwise "intangible" to the known universe. This allows the ship to pass through solid objects, everything from planets to stars.

Next, with the ship existing in a state "technically" outside the universe, another thing happens. Since the ship is pulled out of the universe, this means the normal forces which affect it are also taken away. Everything from gravity, to heat, and most of all, inertia.

The Ship no longer moves in tandem with the rest of the universe, and slowly starts to lose relative momentum, as it starts to "slow down" until it sits in "Absolute position". Believe it or not, the universe is expanding at an astonishing rate, and pending on your absolute position, expands faster than the speed of light.

Thus, by staying in absolute position while the universe expands and moves around you, the ship is able to "move" at incredible speed (though technically it's the universe moving, not the ship).

As always, no two objects can exist in the same place at the same time, so before deactivating the intangibility drive ship must be located in empty space.

There is no way to properly stress how important that fact is.

Name: Darkek Empire

Race: Darkek(9ft birdmen who live on a world of extreme wind and heavy gravity, causing them to have great endurance and their wings being powerful enough to let them fly at surprising speeds in lighter atmospheres. They glow very bright in the dark, as the unending gales of their homeworld make it hard to see even with nightvision)

Color: Purple

Fluff: The Darkek are a race of large avians hailing from Darkon, a planet of unending rain with winds reaching up to 500 mph. The Darkek were one of the very few races to live above ground, and due to the extreme nature of their homeworld grew to be naturally strong and fast. Eventually the Darkek managed to form a planetary government, their buildings barely standing on the harsh planet. In time they left their world, a race hardened by a harsh home, and proceeded to thrive in environments considered too dangerous to live in.

Government Type: Absolute Monarchy

Economy Type: Total command

Religion/Ideology: The Darkek praise their god the windmaker, and view the plant Darkon as his home, while lightwind is the sheer wind left in his wake as he flies around the cosmos, only stopping to gift his people strength and speed.

FTL Method: The Darkek ships match their makers, and use extreme speeds to naturally reach FTL speeds before piercing into a area of space known as lightwind that they ride to the next destination.

Or the collective.

Race: Fungi people

Color: Green and black

Fluff: From a world with multiple suns and a lush landscape a unified fungus has taken over the hearts and souls ( and minds) with there peaceful, infectious presence. The collective fungus has spread rapidly and now has compleat control over our home. After the hive minds rebellious teenage years of pollinating and mutating with all the pretty mind controlled subspecies it realized that there are other species out in the Galaxy yet to feel it's love. Developments and discovers where made in a floating gas filled plant species and now it's set out to share its love with the universe.

Government Type: A fungus people and their infected subspecies are controlled and driven from a collective intelligence. All infected species are given needed resources needed to survive without discrimination [total socialism]

Economy Type: Cooperative, all plants share Resources equally because that's what brothers do man.

Religion/Ideology: Peace love and hippy beads are cool man and you should think there cool too. Intolerance will not be tolerated!

FTL Method: Biological super gliders from a subspecies of gaseous transport plants riding off of space wind (fuck yea)

Name:

Enlightenment of Fahnu

Race:

Fahnu, Fahnu's allies they have giften FTL travel

Color:

Burgundy

Fluff:

The Enlightenment of Fahnu has always expanded through a clinical methodology of cultural suppression, insurgency, and propaganda. Skilled logicians, anthropologists, and linguists study Xenosocieties and figure out the best way to dismember their ideology while casting the Enlightenment as the next logical step for their civilization in every manner possible in the context of their pre-existing culture. This began with the Great Fahnu itself, and spread across their industrial civilizations with a strong and unifying force. Of course, Fahnu was never above the use of military force–rather, he considered it to go hand-in-hand with cultural domination, par for the course.

Fahnuvians, biologically, have three genders. Egg layers, egg carriers, and egg fertilizers. They correlate to roughly females, a-gender, and males. Fahnu was the 2nd, referred to as "it" in the closest English equivalent.

Fahnuvians are more known for their intellects than their physical prowess, so extensive use of pneumatic armor and mechanized battle suits are relied upon to spread the Enlightenment across the stars, and maintain it against barbarians who have yet to be Enlightened.

Government Type:

Meritocracy, Test-Based

Economy Type:

Socialist, the most cunning\economically inclined are granted Writs of Free Enterprise however

Religion/Ideology:

The Enlightenment of Fahnu is a self-contained way of life, to the point the Jakthi people renamed themselves after its founder. The Fahnuvian ideology is a mixture of quasi-religious reverence for design and aesthetics and ancestor worship, with a dash of asceticism thrown in for the most devout.

Name: Elder Remnant

Race: Eldarin - Artificial life based on the Elder Race structure.

Color: Yellow

Fluff: The Elder Beings were of an unknown origin, probably from a time where the galaxy was still hot and dense. During that primordial era they forged empires across the stars and once ruled over all aspects of reality; electromagnetism, movement, gravity and relativism. So great was their power that their downfall was nigh impossible. And yet it came. No one is really sure what happened to them and few of their mighty constructions remained behind to tell any story, but sure as the galaxies cooled the Elder Ones disappeared.

Among their many and awesome creations that dotted the cosmos at its infancy lies the construct people known as the Remnant Race. They were forged in the irradiated elliptical core of the galaxy, a place bursting with energies other races consider lethal and offensive. To the Remnant prolonged exposure to stellar radiation does then no ill or harm, being able to sustain terribly high temperatures as well as having amazing robust genetics. Their entire genome is composed of strong links of crystalline micro-formations of silicone molecules, much different than carbon based life. It’s almost a stretch to call the Remnant alive. They are not more than self-contained and perfectly attuned organic machines built in the image of their creators.

Their planet of origin rotates around the galactic core instead of a star, making it both terribly cold and bombarded by scorching stellar radiation.

Government Type: Autocratic Merito-Gerontocracy - Where the leaders are those self-appointed among the oldest strata of society. Since they will often span millennia or more they have had an entire lifetime of accumulated knowledge, wealth and power and because of their robust genetics have not withered one single bit aside from outside intervention. These Old Ones lead the Remnant unopposed.

Economy Type: The only coins in which the Remnant deal is value and rarity. That which is highly valuable will be sought after and hoarded, the rare will be catalogued and preserved. This is a direct sidestep from their main source of economic interest; the shards of the Elder Race, the artifacts and ruins of their ancient creators.

Religion/Ideology: Albeit many of the Remnant worship the Elder Things they are the fervorous minority. The true creed of the race is called the Song, or Universal Song. It’s their understanding of string theory, chaos theory and quantum mechanics given will.

Even possessing many replication-organs (systems in their bodies that are aesthetically similar to the Elder Ones anatomy) - like ears, respiratory system and skin - they are actually a very long sequence of interconnect synapse nerves and mechanical tendon power-houses. This allows the Remnant to not only “feel” the Universal Song, but also sing it, to a certain degree. They don’t simply observe the effects of the micro-universe, they hear its call and give it divine providence.

FTL Method: Relative-Correspondence Drive - accelerates by harnessing the correspondence of information between strings. By reaching relativistic hyper-speed, it then stops perceiving space-time as a line and instead shortens it to a quantifiable energy debt that, when paid, fulfills a distance and time-frame.

NameLagiacrux

Race: A heavily augmented race of sharp fanged reptiallian creatures, The Lagiacrux have a roughly humanoid shape and are bipedal clawed falcon like feat, they sport raptor like arms and are heavily scaled similar to a crocodile with the inside of their mouths being similar to a sharks. Their eyes are completely red with no visible pupils.

Color: Green or tan scales depending on sex.

Fluff: The lagiacrux are highly technologically advanced,but adopt more primitive forms of weaponry such as swords,spears and other primitive weapons forged from the various indigenous materials found throughout their solar system .

Government Type: The Lagiacrux empire operates under various factions of kings and queens following the commands of the nobles of the species and is largely dominated by one house in particular it's basically a political scape similar to game of thrones

Economy Type: The economy of the lagiacrux is built around primitive trade similar to the human dark ages

Religion/Ideology: The lagiacrux are a warlike species that value power and honor, they fight to eradicate evil in the galaxy and have a code of honor similar to a knights code of chivalry

FTL Method: The lagiacrux travel in massive fleets with ships that are similar in appearance to a stone castle. The primary means of FTL travel for them consists of a fuel made from an indigenous ore that powers a massive power core located near the bottom of the ship that serves as the primary means of FTL travel.

>Name:

Gildrland

>Race:

Norsemen

>Color:

Gold

>Fluff:

Long ago, an ancient, noble, and ultimately dying race was, well, dying out. To preserve their legacy as a species, they decided to offer their knowledge to a younger race.

Unfortunately, they chose to give a very easy to use FTL drive to Vikings. The old race passed away, and thousands of Vikings flew off to raid the stars.

…Without any real understanding of Interstellar Navigation. Or knowledge of where Earth was.

After they'd taken their fill of wealth and mysterious alien tech, they sought out their old home to no avail. So they searched the stars for a new one! Many worlds were found. Fjordheim, Definately-has-an-atmosphereland, Eriksland, and many other were found…but one shone above the others.

A world of bizarrely earthlike flora and fauna, one rich in the metal used in the FTL drive, A worthy land, (which an Old Norse to English site tells me would be) Gildrland.

The ages passed, and eventually the Gildrlanders began to build a true society, advancing to the point they could understand the old technologies that landed them here.

They take to the stars once more.

>Government Type:

Thing

>Religion/Ideology:

Over the years, the Norse Faith and Christianity blended together, creating a strange syncretic faith. Jesus became a figure of luck and vigor, Valkyries became angelic 'Choosers of the Saints', and Hel became particularly associated with Hell. It promotes kindness and mercy, but also personal strength in battle.

>FTL Method:

There exists a strange metal, more common on certain worlds and in certain systems. When enough energy is dumped into it, it drags the ship around it "up" into Hyperspace. Conversely, it can drag a ship "down" into Subspace. It requires a trivial amount of energy to go "down" into Subspace, but a considerable amount to "rise" back into reality. Conversely, "rising" into Hyperspace is resource-intensive, while it takes very little to "fall" back into reality. Both have strange and seemingly unrelated properties, and both allow for FTL travel.

Name: T.C.E

Race: Robots (usually Androidish)

Color: Grey-Blue

Fluff:

Originating from a planet plagued by civil war the T.C.E was created by an intergalactic entrepreneur trying to get the warring parties to seize hostilities by creating a common foe.

Initially the T.C.E, an AI tasked with posing a threat to biological species in order to ensure their goodwill and cooperation amongst each other, began with a number of terrorist attacks on all warring parties, quickly expanding operations by seizing productive facilities, eventually forming a military force formidable enough to challenge any of the planetary factions.

Faced with an enemy of unknown origin and malicious intent the planet banded together. Fighting was harsh and many died in the years of urban warfare, however eventually the T.C.E was crushed by the planetary Coalition, its remnants scattered few units escaped by their creator's order. He was later arrested and executed for treason as the extend of his involvement in the crisis became known, almost sparking yet another series of civil wars.

With only their Order to guide them the remainder of the T.C.E continue to roam the galaxy, seeking to gather resources and pose a threat once more, this time not to a country or a planet, but towards the entire galaxy.

For all their strengths the T.C.E has a decisive weakness as their success inevitably lies in their defeat, never truly able to rid the galaxy of the biological species they set out to fight, even if this eventually means the end of their own existance.

Government Type: Militaristic Communism

Economy Type: Government Controlled

Religion/Ideology: The Order - The need to constantly pose a threat to biological species in order to ensure their goodwill and cooperation amongst each other.

FTL Method:

Very slow heavily armored transport ships with big damn thrusters. Once they have actually arrived the construction of Jump Gates for more rapid transportation.

Name: The Olympian Corporate Hegemon

Race: Human through and through, though cyborgs are reasonably common and g-mods are known amongst the elite.

Color: What's left? Neon Yellow

Fluff: The Olympian colonies started out as an experiment in corporate space travel - 12 large conglomerates pooled their resources into the creation of a single massive transporter for a one-way long distance jump to their "ideal world". Each corp had their own landing vessel with which to then establish their colony. A universal government was established primarily to adjudicate between the megacorps after the second corpwar, as well as a way of handling the rising populations of the colonies. It was assigned ownership over certain resources, populations and privileges (that no-one could agree who "owned"), on the condition that exploitation of said resources would be farmed out to the corps - offering contracts is a large portion of the government's job. The competitive nature of Olympian society has meant that various branches have deep rivalries and funding wars, and purely corp forces (though limited by treaty) also exist alongside government ones. After almost a century the corps looked to the stars once again, and corporate dominions expanded to include entire planets, though most major populations are multi-corp.

There are 9 remaining corps.

Government Type: Corporate Hegemony, ruled by a Parliament, mostly dominated by the representatives of the Megacorps. Most services are privatised, with the government acting as oversight.

Economy Type: Megacorp-based Crony Capitalism

Religion/Ideology: Highly varied in personal beliefs, but the general consensus is that competition breeds strength, and the strongest survive - Olympian society is highly competitive, a state fostered by many megacorp ideologies.

FTL Method: "Jump" teleport drive - a direct near-instantaneous point-to-point teleport, with 3 key governing factors: Position, Distance and Mass.

Position must be calculated beforehand - it cannot be changed in transit, as there is no experienced time during transit. The calculations are complex, and precision is important - a rushed calculation could leave you well off course, or teleported into the heart of a star.

Distance of the jump determines the energy requirements, and the scale is not linear - on-planet and in-system jumps tend to be a bit excessive when conventional travel would work (though they're still feasible), interstellar is the most practical, and longer journeys see the energy-per-distance start to climb again.

The mass of the object being teleported determines how long the phase-in time is - particularly important, as while an object is phasing in it cannot interact with a point in space, but it can have its phasing frequency blocked. The ability to be blocked (and for ships to move out the way) is why tele-munitions have largely fallen out of favour with the _.

Jumps can be made by ship equipment (jump drives) and by external equipment (teleporters).

The Jump principle is also used for FLT communication - as photons have almost no mass this means that messages will almost always get to and from shielded locations.

Name: The Yiyatun Commonwealth

Race: The Yiyatun - visually a hybrid between timberwolves and raccoons, with dexterous paws. Carnivorous and fairly pack orientated, with clans comprising of multiple packs, and Great Clans comprising of multiple clans.

Color: Red

Fluff: The Yiyatun Commonwealth was formed after the Great Clan War; sick of the constant warring of the planetbound clans, the minority spacefaring clans dropped rocks until the groundling clans submitted. They formed a council of all the Yiyatun clans and Great Clans, to work for the Common Wealth of all Yiyatunkind.

Government Type: Clan Council with Speaker. Every Clan has a seat and vote in the Council, as well as the Great Clans. The Speaker is the Commonwealth Pack Leader, chosen by majority council vote, and may be subject to challenge at any time - or removal by 3/4ths vote.

Economy Type: Open Membership Guild based Societies. There is often, but not always, an overlap between clans and guilds. Clans may be entered to by marriage or adoption, but Guilds can have members from multiple clans.

Religion/Ideology: Manifest Destiny. According to Yiyatun legends and myths, the Gods came from the Heavens with the Yiyatun were young, and taught them the secrets of civilization. The command, "Conquer the World and the Stars", comes from the very gods themselves, and even the most secular of clans believe that it is right that the Yiyatun rule everything.

Action Fluff:

1: "The Commonwealth speaker today announced a new program of orbital industrial production. Citing costs to boost out of Yiyatu's gravity well, the Speaker laid out the case for the plans. A majority of the Clans and Great Clans have agreed to the plan, which includes lifting more Groundling clans into Orbital assets, but a solid faction of Groundling clans have protested the expendenture, citing economic damage from the Unification war."

2: "ORDERS: FROM SENTSPACCOM TO CO L-00A1. PROCEED ON SCOUT MISSION TO GALACTIC NORTH. CATALOG AND OBSERVE ALL FEATURES LISTED UNDER INTERESTING FOR RETURN ON PATROL. AWAY MISSIONS AUTHORIZED. CONTACT WITH SPACEFARING ALIENS SHALL BE ALLOWED. UPON HOSTILE ACTION, BREAK OFF AND RTB IMMEDIATELY."

3: "ORDERS: FROM SENTSPACCOM TO CO L-00A2. PROCEED ON SCOUT MISSION TO GALACTIC WEST. CATALOG AND OBSERVE ALL FEATURES LISTED UNDER INTERESTING FOR RETURN ON PATROL. AWAY MISSIONS AUTHORIZED. CONTACT WITH SPACEFARING ALIENS SHALL BE ALLOWED. UPON HOSTILE ACTION, BREAK OFF AND RTB IMMEDIATELY."

Research: "Lab Notes, Doctor Koreh. Ring Drive Physics continue to elude a unified theory, although there are a few interesting avenues of approach towards a better understanding. We've got the equivalent of a catapult without knowing the laws of motion, although being slightly more advanced than that era, we should be able to bridge the gaps of our knowledge slightly faster."

Random: Email Exchange, Ripahyi Family: "I understand your frustration, but the Clan Leader has okayed these games. Unless you're willing to go against the clan head, we can't keep our cubs from participating. At least it's not a blood sport, and for goodness sakes, have you looked at Rike lately? He shouldn't still be as round as he was when he was a young pup! Exercise is good for him."

Name: Delgani Kingdoms

Race: Delgan (4 legged 2 armed vertebrates analogues with 3 eyes and a mouth. Have smooth skin like scales, and spines running along the back)

Color: Blue

Fluff: The Delgan are from a warm tropical planet covered with loose plants and drifting seas. The are hierarchical in nature, and pack based. They have for millennia fought each other in wars and ideological conflicts. This had slowed their rate of growth greatly, but allowed them to create a strong industrial base from what they have.

They started solar system colonization a hundred years ago, delganforming 2 other planets and mining several hundred asteroids. The competition is pace is fierce, as it is a free market and little in the way of regulating it. Thus there are myriads fighter craft, corvettes and frigates and freighters flying around the system and more pumped out each day to fuel the booming growth in the system.

Government Type: Hegemony, a representative for life is elected and rules from Delgan.

Economy Type: Free market very little regulation.

Religion/Ideology: Struggle makes the individual and pack stronger, the strongest smartest and toughest survive and grow, while the others do not. We struggle as one people, pulling in a thousand directions, and thus we grow.

FTL Method: Gravitic correspondence. The ftl drive uses a sufficiently dense gravity well to open a hyperspace rift that puts the ship through a large a mount of space in short time. The distance covered is dependent on the gravity well used, and how close the ship skirts it.

>Race:

Norsemen

>Color:

>Fluff:

Long ago, an ancient, noble, and ultimately dying race was, well, dying out. To preserve their legacy as a species, they decided to offer their knowledge to a younger race.

Unfortunately, they chose to give a very easy to use FTL drive to Vikings. The old race passed away, and thousands of Vikings flew off to raid the stars.

…Without any real understanding of Interstellar Navigation. Or knowledge of where Earth was.

After they'd taken their fill of wealth and mysterious alien tech, they sought out their old home to no avail. So they searched the stars for a new one! Many worlds were found. Fjordheim, Definately-has-an-atmosphereland, Eriksland, and many other were found…but one shone above the others.

A world of bizarrely earthlike flora and fauna, one rich in the metal used in the FTL drive, A worthy land, (which an Old Norse to English site tells me would be) Gildrland.

The ages passed, and eventually the Gildrlanders began to build a true society, advancing to the point they could understand the old technologies that landed them here.

They take to the stars once more.

>Government Type:

Thing

>Religion/Ideology:

Over the years, the Norse Faith and Christianity blended together, creating a strange syncretic faith. Jesus became a figure of luck and vigor, Valkyries became angelic 'Choosers of the Saints', and Hel became particularly associated with Hell. It promotes kindness and mercy, but also personal strength in battle.

>FTL Method:

There exists a strange metal, more common on certain worlds and in certain systems. When enough energy is dumped into it, it drags the ship around it "up" into Hyperspace. Conversely, it can drag a ship "down" into Subspace. It requires a trivial amount of energy to go "down" into Subspace, but a considerable amount to "rise" back into reality. Conversely, "rising" into Hyperspace is resource-intensive, while it takes very little to "fall" back into reality. Both have strange and seemingly unrelated properties, and both allow for FTL travel.

But even the dead worlds have value, and the rest of this system is strange to us.

You know what's nice?

Being able to go home after a nice voyage of discovery and pillage.

Unfortunately, our ancestors did not have this great pleasure. Let us take measures to ensure this does not happen again.

>RANDOM EVENT

Many worlds were found and settled by the wave of Norsemen that found themselves far from home,

All were abandoned in favor of Gildrland.

But with our return to the stars, some scholars have uncovered some stereotypical musty ol' tomes on the lands once settled.

Most have misleading names.

1. Various corps sponsor the voyages of the scout ships, and they set out to explore, eager to expand their holdings off-planet

2. The corps may dominate on-planet, but now they look to the stars - begin work on orbital industry

3. Foreseeing great expenditure in future, the corps ramp up resource gathering

Research: To look to the stars we must be able to thrive there - research into construction for space abounds in corporate labs

Random: All things SPACE! - The recent launches and pushes from corporate ideology have sparked a craze for all things space.

Name: The Olympian Corporate Hegemon

Race: Human through and through, though cyborgs are reasonably common and g-mods are known amongst the elite.

Color: What's left? Neon Yellow

Fluff: The Olympian colonies started out as an experiment in corporate space travel - 12 large conglomerates pooled their resources into the creation of a single massive transporter for a one-way long distance jump to their "ideal world". Each corp had their own landing vessel with which to then establish their colony. A universal government was established primarily to adjudicate between the megacorps after the second corpwar, as well as a way of handling the rising populations of the colonies. It was assigned ownership over certain resources, populations and privileges (that no-one could agree who "owned"), on the condition that exploitation of said resources would be farmed out to the corps - offering contracts is a large portion of the government's job. The competitive nature of Olympian society has meant that various branches have deep rivalries and funding wars, and purely corp forces (though limited by treaty) also exist alongside government ones. After almost a century the corps looked to the stars once again, and corporate dominions expanded to include entire planets, though most major populations are multi-corp.

There are 9 remaining corps.

Government Type: Corporate Hegemony, ruled by a Parliament, mostly dominated by the representatives of the Megacorps. Most services are privatised, with the government acting as oversight.

Economy Type: Megacorp-based Crony Capitalism

Religion/Ideology: Highly varied in personal beliefs, but the general consensus is that competition breeds strength, and the strongest survive - Olympian society is highly competitive, a state fostered by many megacorp ideologies.

FTL Method: "Jump" teleport drive - a direct near-instantaneous point-to-point teleport, with 3 key governing factors: Position, Distance and Mass.

Position must be calculated beforehand - it cannot be changed in transit, as there is no experienced time during transit. The calculations are complex, and precision is important - a rushed calculation could leave you well off course, or teleported into the heart of a star.

Distance of the jump determines the energy requirements, and the scale is not linear - on-planet and in-system jumps tend to be a bit excessive when conventional travel would work (though they're still feasible), interstellar is the most practical, and longer journeys see the energy-per-distance start to climb again.

The mass of the object being teleported determines how long the phase-in time is - particularly important, as while an object is phasing in it cannot interact with a point in space, but it can have its phasing frequency blocked. The ability to be blocked (and for ships to move out the way) is why tele-munitions have largely fallen out of favour with the _.

Jumps can be made by ship equipment (jump drives) and by external equipment (teleporters).

The Jump principle is also used for FLT communication - as photons have almost no mass this means that messages will almost always get to and from shielded locations.

Fluff: The dis-assembly of the Terrej Hegemony at the end of the Trixlian Hive Wars saw a massive influx of Terrans to many of the border worlds as their own were torn apart by the Marauding Collector Fleets of Hive G'thagn, who refused to acknowledge the Accord of Janus, and were far to powerful and influential for the Hive-Queen Solidarity to openly oppose. And so many a newly independent world burned to the orbital plasma Casters of the Hivers. In these dying days, the remnants of the Intelligence branch of the Hegemony, ONI, worked day in and day out on the completion of a secret project to make these grub bastards pay for what they had done to the pinnacle of Human power in the Galaxy. A new breed of human, or rather, what was once humans, altered with various genes and other genetic material from the various species mankind encountered among the void. These new humanoids, dubbed "Dominus" were very special creatures indeed.

Developments and discovers where made in a floating gas filled plant species and now it's set out to share its love with the universe.

Government Type: A fungus people and their infected subspecies are controlled and driven from a collective intelligence. All infected species are given needed resources needed to survive without discrimination [total socialism]

Economy Type: Cooperative, all plants share Resources equally because that's what brothers do man.

The final frontier. These are the journeys of our two Voyager Exploratory Ships.

In search of new life on other worlds.

To boldly go where no Utobithan has gone before!

3. [Research]

Our engineers work hard on creating a new device, the brainchild of one of our top scientists.

The Neuropathic Transponder.

A device capable of detecting potential brainwave patterns or signs of energetic intelligence from any kind of lifeforms, even hypothetical ones like silicon or even pure energy beings.

It would come a long way to helping us find other life in the universe, and maybe even be used as a universal translator by sending brainwave signals back!

4. Random Event

While scientists work on the neuropathic Transponder, once scientist in particular comes up with an extraordinary discovery.

He claims to have invented, in his words, a "happy ray". One which activates the centers of the brain concerning joy, love, calmness, and even pleasure.

This could prove useful in meeting and getting friendly with other alien races!

Scouts are sent out, they find a system with a lot of asteroids but no planets.

A disaster in the lab! An experimental drive is activated and took a good chunk of the planet with it! It is believed that Yiyayu may become inhospitable in [10 turns] due to the vast climate change. -1 pop, roll a d100 every turn for planet condition.

The fad breaks out fast, and then is quickly crushed as the origin was in the part of the planet that got sent off.

>>15755

Agri-Fields 2/3

You begin to produce some mechanized infantry units. 1/3

No life is found, a system with some mineral rich asteroids are found though.

Propaganda research 2/5

Research found that this method only really makes them want to do it in real life.

>>15760

It seems all metal nodes in the system are already being mined, you will need to head out of the system.

Luckily a system with many a gas giant and many moons is found nearby.

Shipyard construction begins, the corps helping out. 2/3

Research is stalled due to a minor explosion in the lab. -0.2 pop.

Many people like the idea, and a prototype is built! The massive explosion tells you how well it went. -0.5 pop.

>>15841

It seems you are isolated, no civilian ships come, nor do you think any will.

Again, no ships are nearby, no matter how you look.

You stop after the first few creatures start dying from drinking salt water.

Physical contact will still be needed, but you begin to create a form that can launch itself like a missile. 1/5

What was once thought a wreck seems to be more like a massive part of a planet! It is unknown how it got here, but you grab what you can. +3 pop, +5 Currency.

>>15896

The scouts don't find much, a system with some lava planets and thats it.

Orbital docks begin construction 2/3

The economy is not strengthened.

The collective facepalm by the board when the idea to create armor from a material that doesn't exist was so hard they needed to cut the departments funding to pay medical bills. +Bonus: Slashed budget - You have a -10 penalty to all space ship based research

The congress never decided an agenda and nothing got done.

>>15897

Your scouts find a system with a dead planet on it, no life but plenty of resources if you can make a base.

High Factory construction begins 1/3

You don't find much you haven't already found, but you do find some more Skinafl nodes.

Your scientists begin making a star map before realizing it isn't as useful as they thought.

You find a promising one called Greenland, and in a nearby system! It was actually a volcanic world.

>>15898

Many are in luck, finding asteroid belts in nearby system full of resources.

With the rush to spread to new systems orbital industry does not see many investors.

Mining platforms are being constructed within the newly found asteroid belts. 1/3

A rumor begins circulating that only select few will be able to see space, which disheartens many.

Orbital defenses construction begins. Equipped with a lot of missiles. 2/3

With a lack of direction the research team does nothing.

The collective thinking reveals nothing, maybe faster FTL methods? But how would you go about getting those?

>>15999

A dead world is found in a nearby system!

You begin training more space marines, but they seem to be a disappointing bunch.

After few looks from the research team it is revealed that exotic matter is not something that can be mined, but must be created.

Gene seed production research 2/5

A meteorite falls from the sky and strikes a statue of the God-Progenitor. What could this mean!?

No life is found but you do find a star that almost went super nova on your ships and a dead world.

You begin to make some robots, but very little progress is made.

Interest is high and much is done on the NT device. 3/5

The device is banned when the scientists son was found dead after a few days. It seems he did nothing but use the 'happy ray' for his own pleasure. It seems he did not eat, sleep, or drink anything, just use the happy ray on himself.

Name: Delgani Kingdoms

Race: Delgan (4 legged 2 armed vertebrates analogues with 3 eyes and a mouth. Have smooth skin like scales, and spines running along the back)

Color: Blue

Fluff: The Delgan are from a warm tropical planet covered with loose plants and drifting seas. The are hierarchical in nature, and pack based. They have for millennia fought each other in wars and ideological conflicts. This had slowed their rate of growth greatly, but allowed them to create a strong industrial base from what they have.

They started solar system colonization a hundred years ago, delganforming 2 other planets and mining several hundred asteroids. The competition is pace is fierce, as it is a free market and little in the way of regulating it. Thus there are myriads fighter craft, corvettes and frigates and freighters flying around the system and more pumped out each day to fuel the booming growth in the system.

Government Type: Hegemony, a representative for life is elected and rules from Delgan.

Economy Type: Free market very little regulation.

Religion/Ideology: Struggle makes the individual and pack stronger, the strongest smartest and toughest survive and grow, while the others do not. We struggle as one people, pulling in a thousand directions, and thus we grow.

FTL Method: Gravitic correspondence. The ftl drive uses a sufficiently dense gravity well to open a hyperspace rift that puts the ship through a large a mount of space in short time. The distance covered is dependent on the gravity well used, and how close the ship skirts it.

Defunctorum hominum Imperii

Race: Human-ish

Color: Orange

Fluff: The dis-assembly of the Terrej Hegemony at the end of the Trixlian Hive Wars saw a massive influx of Terrans to many of the border worlds as their own were torn apart by the Marauding Collector Fleets of Hive G'thagn, who refused to acknowledge the Accord of Janus, and were far to powerful and influential for the Hive-Queen Solidarity to openly oppose. And so many a newly independent world burned to the orbital plasma Casters of the Hivers. In these dying days, the remnants of the Intelligence branch of the Hegemony, ONI, worked day in and day out on the completion of a secret project to make these grub bastards pay for what they had done to the pinnacle of Human power in the Galaxy. A new breed of human, or rather, what was once humans, altered with various genes and other genetic material from the various species mankind encountered among the void. These new humanoids, dubbed "Dominus" were very special creatures indeed. They were green, as they had chloroplast in their skin to absorb energy from sunlight; also tall, with an average height of around seven feet to be exact.

Name: Salmagundi

Race: Salmagundi has unknown physical properties. The original composition of Salmagundi has been lost.

Color: Black and White or Orange and Blue.

Fluff: Salmagundi has many names, but is generally agreed by scientists and philosophers to be a massive quasi-eldritch bio-organic space parasite. Like other plagues, Salmagundi spreads across the vaccum aboard ships like a disease and mutilates the crew into forms that are more effective intermediaries; when planets are encountered Salmagundi can rework entire worlds into nightmarish organic factories. Indeed, Salmagundi is a galactic threat par-excellence: it gains intelligence as it moves, consumes, and devours anything that it makes contact with. The initial race that made contact with Salmagundi has been lost to history, but have subsequently been reviled as villains for whatever they have done to introduce Salmagundi to the universe.

With that said, Salmagundi's ultimate purpose in this universe is unknown. It seems to have hidden political objectives that it keeps hidden – some speculate it only attempts to blight other realms of existence in order to prevent itself from being exterminated entirely. It is therefore easily said that Salmagundi is a menace and respects no race or people; it is both clever and vicious, and works feverishly to pursue whatever goals it has. This of course does not flag Salmagundi as a stupid warmonger: it can and does barter, negotiate, and respect contract – for a time. For Salmagundi, only survival and growth are a priority: notions such as honor, pity, mercy, and justice are lacking in substance to it.

Salmagundi typically expands itself by infecting new ships by coating their hulls, gaseous dispersal, or delivery by other means. It generally eschews fighting in preference to infection.

Salmagundi can also maintain autonomy for certain individuals if so required.

Government Type: Hive-Mind [Semi-Plural]

Economy Type: Unlimited Command

Religion/Ideology: Everything is Salmagundi.

FTL Method: Salmagundi travels by whatever drive system it can steal, barter, or imitate. If given enough time Salmagundi can fashion what has been understood as a "Gundi-Complex"; an advanced organic drive system of unknown properties.

Name: The Yiyatun Commonwealth

Race: The Yiyatun - visually a hybrid between timberwolves and raccoons, with dexterous paws.

Carnivorous and fairly pack orientated, with clans comprising of multiple packs, and Great Clans

comprising of multiple clans.

Color: Red

Fluff: The Yiyatun Commonwealth was formed after the Great Clan War; sick of the constant

warring of the planetbound clans, the minority spacefaring clans dropped rocks until the

groundling clans submitted. They formed a council of all the Yiyatun clans and Great Clans, to

work for the Common Wealth of all Yiyatunkind.

Government Type: Clan Council with Speaker. Every Clan has a seat and vote in the Council, as

well as the Great Clans. The Speaker is the Commonwealth Pack Leader, chosen by majority council

vote, and may be subject to challenge at any time - or removal by 3/4ths vote.

Economy Type: Open Membership Guild based Societies. There is often, but not always, an overlap

49e851 No.17608

Name: United Duchies of Zeon

Race: 'Spacenoid' Psychic Humans, possibly called newtypes.

Color: Crimson (Hex# FFDC143C)

Fluff: An uncountable number of generations ago, when humanity first left the Earth, people were still needing to get used to new ways of communication, of dealing with the deep, dark black between worlds. Soon, according to the records and stories, people started actively feeling the thoughts of others, and found themselves cut apart from the others. They soon formed their own faction, Zeon. They volunteered for the furthest out missions, for the missions that would allow them to get far enough away to break off without worry of retaliation. They slowly designed new ways of fighting in space, using large mobile suits and technology made to play off of and harness their growing psychic power. Generations on generations later Earth is but a forgotten, mythical place, only referenced to as how Zeon got to where they were, but not a goal to go back to.

Government Type: A mix of royalty, military control, and meritocracy

Economy Type:. Cooperative

Religion/Ideology: Everyone has their place. The aristocracy must show honor in battle, and only retreat when necessary to protect the people, and the people help support the aristocracy, and may be allowed to oust any who turn their backs on the Ideals of Char.

FTL Method: Exotic particle driven hyperdrives and 'lanes'

49e851 No.18476

Name: The Ayelordasi Matriarchy

Race: The Ayelordasi - Technical life forms, the Ayelordasi resemble beautiful female mannequins that are clear, featureless and hairless, see through, and have fully mobile arms and legs as well as a turn-capable head. Their clear outer shells are filled with psychedelic light produced by the technical devices inside them's activities. They wear attire, jewelry, and have recognizable personalities.

Color: White

Fluff: A long time before the start of the game, the original 27 Ayelordasi were found by an exploratory team exploring the extinct world "Saemundr's Find". It was an unusual encounter because the Ayelordasi were still going on their old resort staff program when they were found. Josiah Tiberio Kirkhoffer, a human captain who discovered the life form, freed it from the dead world's mainframe control, after which they began to replicate themselves and became a society of their own overnight. All existing Ayelordasi are clone copies of these original 27, being exact copies at their technical-process "birth", and maturing into their own individual person over time.

Government Type: oligarchy - The original 27 Ayelordasi hold all authority and power in the Ayelordasi Matriarchy, with their chosen personal representatives holding temporary authority delegated to them. There has never been a civil war in Ayelordasi history, and they have been ruled by Miranda-21-27 for most of their history. These original 27 consider all existing Ayelordasi their offspring, and mother/child is the intended nature of the relationship between the originals and the copies.

Economy Type: Voluntary co-op, Internal economy non-existent, as fellow ayelordasi are simply given whatever they need for free. External trade is vigorous and money & resources are sought after however.

Religion/Ideology: Highly in-group oriented, Ayelordasi and the needs of the Matriarchy take absolute preference & importance. But they also have traditions of hospitality, friendship, truthfulness, and candid expression of their feelings among themselves and others.

FTL Method: Exotic particle drives.

Planets: 1

Bonuses/Eccentricities:

FTL - The universe moves fast, and knowing when to shut off the drive is important. Low rolls on actions that require FTL movement could end with your ship in a star.

Hivemind - It is hard to lose faith in those in charge when you are part of those in charge. However the human mind was not meant to be a hive mind, so things may get weird when stability should be lost.

One Big Computer - The Human mind is more complex than any computer, and now you have access to many of them to compute with. +10 to research rolls but rolls under 10 will cause a forceful change in research direction as the majority want that researched.

NT device. 3/5
