Major Races and their History

Humans
"Every human knows, when you gaze at the sky at night, that it is our destiny."


Having risen from the ashes, humanity lives with the sin of their fathers. They have been labelled and portrayed as an inherently warlike, imperialist, and expansion driven race of ignoramuses that barely know how to use their own technology, they find themselves with few allies in the galaxy. No surprise there either, as they have warred with each other for resources and planets since the Alarei's disappearance. Regardless, they have established several diplomatic and trade victories in the past few decades, and starting to change their image slowly.

Several colonies and nations have been lost throughout the centuries, to harsh conditions or unknown attacks. The few human nations that remain are cautious, feeling that they are being backed into a corner. It is a scary predicament, because another war with a nonhuman race could be the final nail in the coffin for humanity, forever labeling them as a primitive race of space faring war beasts.

"Neo-humans", "Sub-humans".
">: TO EVOLVE, IS TO SURVIVE."

An example of a Zelenu-slavecore, a human integrated into a ship CPU to act as a super advanced processing unit. Developed by Zelenu pirates, it is outlawed by near all human nations.

Isolated and cut off from humanity, forced to live in harsh conditions, or forced their own "evolution" as they would call it, some humans just don't look.. human anymore. Some have long since been civilized, living as primitive tribals on a failed colony world. Others, such as the Zeleniyans, have been shaped by their harsh environment, resulting in them needing augmentations to survive beyond 15 to 20 years.

Alarei
"The greatest civilization of the last era, reduced to dust."


The once proud, hyper-advanced, blue skinned species of Alarei, now reduced to ashes. Before the war with humanity, the Alarei had the greatest diplomatic influence over the known galaxy, unofficial "head chair member" of the last council. The nuclear war is regarded as one of the most detrimental to technological advancement to the entire galaxy, as the Alarei were on the brink of sharing some of their secrets with other empires and nations before the war.

Because of their superb population control, they subsequently were all but exterminated in the retaliatory missile strikes. Today, there are rumors of Alarei mutants living on Talarin, and traders speak of a migrant fleet of untold size that escaped the apocalypse and has yet to find a permanent home.

Kal'Bavakorians
"May the Goddess forever guide our people to fortune in the stars.."


A race of short, blue-skinned aliens with mandibles, natural tattoos, and a love for flesh and their religion has made it's home in the stars. A matriarchal people led by a zealous yet kind-hearted Empress, they have expanded violently in an attempt to grasp for power and influence in the small cluster of space available to them. Their advanced technologies and hypocritical warrior culture has put them at odds end with humanity on multiple occasions. 

Their empire, once reigning across multiple star systems and over a dozen planets, has collapsed back into their home system after the end of the Second Interstellar War. Bitter with humanity and low on resources for their waning Alliance, they seek to continue their mission to spread across the galaxy; seeking new fuel sources and planets to conquer as a means of doing so.
