Species

THIS PAGE IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION!

The ideas below are just that. Ideas. Nothing here is concrete yet. Species for me is something of a low priority at the moment.

Humans

Humans have scattered after first contact. There home world torn apart by its own inhabitants. Most of it a nuclear waste land full of desperate survivors struggling to live off the monstrous landscape. Some dare to dream of the old world and try to bring back some of Humanities former glory. Many others though choose to hurdle themselves out into The Great Ring as refugees of their own home world. They dared instead to hope. Hope that the Galaxy will be merciful and that the bounty of space would bring them wealth and success. Many quickly learned that if you wish to survive you most band together and be willing to take on the hard reality of life in space.

Many other species see humans as equally stupid as they appear smart and can be incredibly useful with such potential if they could just get around some of those pesky human flaws. Greed and arrogance being high on the list. Most species see humans as more of a nuisance then anything else. However many are willing to work hard and have a remarkable ability to adapt if given time.
