DOMINANT REIGN THE UNIVERSE

EARTH EXPANSE

Earth has long been watched from afar by the Ketimarr. Humans are one of those rare species that breeds and grows quickly. They live a short life, far more quickly than most advanced races. They've managed to expand their control on their universe and their grasp on technology. Their tendancy towards war, their flexible moralities, their ability to outbreed others and their tenuous understanding of how the universe works makes them dangerous to others. They have time after time proven themselves an asset when kept in small groups, while in larger concentrations they are voracious.

They are considered dangerous, but no where near as dangerous as the Blight.

Earth has advanced divisions in military, technology, psionics and genetics. At this point they are diverse, but are masters of none. They have developed; clones, synthetics, drones, cybernetics, telepaths, telekinetics, space travel, incredible war machines, vast structures, documented countless studies and charted deeply in to space.

Synthetics are artificially intelligent robotics that appear fully human. They run on various ethical programs depending on their purpose.

Cyberians are power armoured combatants, they have either been advanced recreationally through private sector competitive sports or government military soldiers. Many are advanced with incredible technology such as power shields, energy weapons, camouflage, flight or even teleportation.

Telepaths are augmented psychically, the lowest strengths can only sense feelings by touch, many can read thoughts by sight, while highly advanced telepaths can rewrite thoughts from a distance.

Clones can be grown from fetal size quickly or natural paced, they can be enhanced intellectually or physically, programmed for the most part, and serve as a method to output faster man power for labour or warfare. They can be given fast healing, enhanced strength and endurance.

THE BLIGHT

No one knows where the Blight comes from. It infects everything it touches from flesh to machine and it mutates it with one sole purpose - to spread even further. Most places infected with the Blight flee from the infection or destroy it on sight, assuming that they know what they are dealing with.

Hosts, is a Blight entity that runs lines of contact-based webbing that telepathically controls areas of living entities like puppets.

Deathclouds, traverse space seeking out new worlds to convert.

Pods, are clusters of cells from the Blight currently transitioning to an identity; like a Puppet Master or Host.

Puppet Masters, are identities that latch on to living entities and drive them, they are able to read the memories of the host.

Infected, these are individuals infected with Blight cells by contact. They will slowly lose control of themselves and their identity until they become a Pod.

Brood, are a basic cellular mobile distribution unit.

Ragers, are mobile warrior units.

Carnage Beasts, are extreme battle units.

Crawling Mass, is the largest almost unstoppable identity.

STAR ELDERS

The Ketimarr are commonly known as the Star Elders. They are an ancient race, highly advanced in psionics and technology. They consider themselves the self-appointed protectors of the galaxies. Which can make them invasive, judgemental and judicial executioners. They are long lived, but breed very slowly. Their crystalis chambers are in fact very sensitive to the world around them.

Councilors are judges, they take decades to decide on the range and scope of a new species they encounter. They are strong telepaths that connect directly to an advanced analsys system.

Chrysalis, these coccoons serve to allow Star Elders to change forms. The Blight can not identify a Chrysalis from itself. The Elder inside can sense its surroundings.

Shapeshifters are infiltrators, they specialize in changing shape faster through the crysalis.

Psi-Rangers are telepathic scouts.

Techno-Scouts are cybernetic scouts.

Techno-Warriors are cybernetic warriors.

Kinites are power-armoured telekinetics.

Psi-Walkers are power-armoured telepaths.

NEUTRAL ZONE

The neutral zone is filled with danger and intrigue. They are a combination of every species that wants to get lost in the universe. Everything from the questionable to the down right illegal can be found in the Neutral Zone. As the name implies no one officially controls "the N-Z", except for maybe the crime lords.

Wild Psions are untrained psionic users, their powers are often erratic. These can often be military grade psions in hiding.
