=New Player Lore Starter Guide=
'''This is a new player's summary to the totality - or at least, as much as we can summarize quickly - of the Aurora server's most essential lore.'''


'''This is the first in a series of multiple guides that are connected to [[Guides/Character Creation]]. Once you're finished reading this, you are more than equipped with the knowledge necessary to create your character using that guide!'''
==Relations with Trans-stellar Factions==
Relations with all corporations are heavily tied to every echelon of even the most detached factions in the Orion Spur. As the corporations have seeped into every facet of one’s livelihood as far as the eye can see, few find it unimportant to maintain some degree of knowledge on the megacorps.  


'''Below is absolutely recommended reading if you are new to the server!'''
This megacorporation’s noteworthy relations with the major powers are below, and may be very important to you.


*The year is '''2462 CE''' (Common Era). Humanity has long since began its trek into space, and explored territory reaches out dozens of lightyears in every direction. After a century beyond the 2000's, flourishing cities had been established in nearby systems such as Tau Ceti and Eridani Federation, and in the centuries that would follow, hundreds of systems would fall under the control of Humanity. Outposts on garden worlds became metropolises in the span of decades. Entire asteroids and moons were mined out, hostile worlds were terraformed and subdued by growing corporations that began to become the dominant economic powers of Human space. [[Offworlder Humans|Some humans have decided to roam the Orion Spur for the rest of their lives, living on their vessels and developing their own culture]]. The endeavors into the final frontier were founded beneath the unified banner of the [[Sol Alliance]] - a fading galactic government which exercises official control over the majority of the Human population.
===Stellar Corporate Conglomerate===
The newly founded Conglomerate’s ties with Zavodskoi are blatant with a newly founded Corporate Force Projection Fleet bearing weapons, munitions and equipment of Zavodskoi make across the board. From high-end starship pieces to antique small arms, Zavodskoi provides it all, making them a key player in the Conglomerate’s private military. P


*At the end of the 22nd century, the power and influence of the Sol Alliance was at its height, but this soon came to an end as an unexpected economic collapse found trans-stellar corporations picking away at Sol Alliance authority piece by piece. In the middle of the prosperity and strife, transtellars have for centuries embarked to make massive profits. The major corporate players had managed to establish a stable, if shaky peace between themselves, with no single corporation able to completely dominate the others.
===Synthetics===
Since its rebranding from Necropolis Industries, Zavodskoi Interstellar often employs synthetics as precise, dextrous labor in machining, manufacturing and blanket industrial work. Many stubborn advocates of hand-crafting and several subsidiaries oriented around quality have made large steps towards vilifying these robotic mechanics, claiming that the “organic touch” is the key to quality, rather than objective fact. This case often seeps down to the working persons of the company through rough opinion of the synthetics which threaten the work of their lives. Contrarily, major steps to save the company face have echoed from executives, painting out a confusing and chaotic internal struggle against synthetics in the company.  


*The foremost megacorporations would ultimately end up becoming [[Nanotrasen Corporation]], [[Einstein Engines]], [[Hephaestus Industries]], [[Idris Incorporated]], [[Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals]] and [[Zavodskoi Interstellar]]. Together, they exercised total economic control over the known galaxy.
===The Empire of Dominia===
Since its arrival in the Dominian industrial scene, Zavodskoi has made headway to monopolizing itself over the fledgling empire as best it can, to decent success. Its sway in the Imperial politics up high remain a mystery, but the certainty of Zavodskoi presence across the Empire’s domain is all there. In recent times, the company can be found reaching out to various establishments in the Empire in an attempt to, for whatever reason it can make up, buy them out. Whether this is a pitiful desperate attempt to grab power or grow a new monopoly is on you to decide.  


*Any semblance of equilibrium between the mega-corps was shattered with NanoTrasen's discovery of the element Phoron in 2417. Phoron is a powerful element which is highly sought after for its untold capabilities and use in the average starship drive. After discovering Phoron, NanoTrasen quickly established a monopoly on it, with themselves sitting on the largest deposits in the known galaxy. The times that followed sent NanoTrasen skyrocketing to unofficially become the foremost power over Humanity. Through determination and overwhelming wealth, it and the other megacorporations have become the dominant governing force over the expanse of the Orion Spur.
Zeng-hu relations
==Relations with Trans-stellar Factions==


*Humanity is far from alone in the Spur, with multiple other sentient species taking to interstellar travel and contesting Humanity’s claim to the stars. In 2332, the Skrell were discovered, and since, a plethora of others were encountered, including the crafty Tajara, the proud Unathi, the enigmatic Vaurcae, and the elegant Dionae. Many more exist, and while most are simply apathetic to humanity, others are openly hostile. If one thing can be said to unite the various species, it is the drive to control the powerful element Phoron.  
Relations with all corporations are heavily tied to every echelon of even the most detached factions in the Orion Spur. As the corporations have seeped into every facet of one’s livelihood as far as the eye can see, few find it unimportant to maintain some degree of knowledge on the megacorps.  


====Your Workplace====
This megacorporation’s noteworthy relations with the major powers are below, and may be very important to you.


The setting which players have access to is within Tau Ceti, a star system approximately 12 light-years away from Sol, under the joint control of the Republic of Biesel and the trans-stellar corporate conglomerate Nanotrasen. You have been assigned to work aboard the NSS Aurora, a state-of-the-art research and mining facility orbiting Tau Ceti within the Romanovich Cloud at the very edge of the system. A flourishing trade hub in the center of Human space, Tau Ceti - and the Republic which holds it - has become the wealthiest system in the galaxy thanks to NanoTrasen’s uncontested monopoly over its phoron supply.
===Jargon Federation===
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
Despite Jargon's internal economy being wholly state-controlled, the Federation's medical academics and researchers have kept an especially amiable relation with the medical megacorporation since the days of first contact. Zeng-Hu's mass presence in Epsilon Eridani, within direct Bluespace Gate reach of the Federation's core worlds, and their mutual research deals with the Aliose University of Medical Sciences have turned them into the most prominent human corporate players toward the Skrellian government, affording them an unique position in galactic affairs.
'''Your Place in the Workplace'''
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
All players including staff are subject to the believable character rule. More details on that rule can be found in the server rules, found [https://aurorastation.org/rules.html here.]


With this said, your place in the workplace is extremely flexible. It would not be a stretch to say you can be whatever you want on the Aurora server, within reason. Get creative! The possibilities are endless, and storied lore backgrounds are always here to help guide character creation.
===Sol Alliance===
Holding a stranglehold over all medical care in the Solarian Alliance, Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals has utterly squashed any opposition in terms of healthcare for the entirety of its space. Owing to its age and endless information of the field, the pedantics of any medical mishap that occurs anywhere, anyhow, anytime will surely make its way to Zeng-Hu from Sol. The company has faced much criticism for the inadvertent leaking of medical data and confidential information across it, but without any alternative, Alliance citizens find themselves frequently indebted to the corporation all the same.


Ultimately, in the grand scheme of things, your binding rules are generally things such as being related to NanoTrasen and being here legally. Opportunities to subvert even these rules are available, but are not the same as player characters made from character setup unless exclusively permitted by staff. More details on these exceptions can be found at the [[Guide to Ghost Roles]] page!
NT relations
==Relations with Trans-stellar Factions==


The vast majority of characters on the server are NanoTrasen employees or extensions of this, such as external megacorporate contractors. These individuals come in all shapes and sizes, with all of them sharing similar - and quite low ranks in the megacorporate hierarchy. Certain ranks are afforded different privileges, such as medical practitioners and corporate security. Playing a NanoTrasen official of higher rank is barred behind a whitelist to ensure quality control. Independent individuals or unaffiliated individuals are accessible as well through character setup. These roles include megacorporate-unaffiliated journalists and visitors who have found their way to the server’s setting somehow.
Relations with all corporations are heavily tied to every echelon of even the most detached factions in the Orion Spur. As the corporations have seeped into every facet of one’s livelihood as far as the eye can see, few find it unimportant to maintain some degree of knowledge on the megacorps.  
</div></div>
====The Economy====


The most common currency in human space is the Standard Credit, originally issued by the Sol Alliance in the early 22nd century. Despite the decline of the Sol Alliance, the Standard Credit remains the reserve currency of many polities, and it is accepted on most worlds throughout human space. The Standard Credit is represented by cr (e.g. 5,000 cr).
This megacorporation’s noteworthy relations with the major powers are below, and may be very important to you.
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
'''Your Place in the Economy'''
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
The financial status of your character varies on a character-by-character and player-by-player basis. To reiterate, the believable character rule must be taken into account here - a security officer very simply has no excuse to be a billionaire, nor does a cargo technician have the ability to be an Interstellar War veteran. However, the pedantics of the extent of one’s wallet is in player control, barring mechanically of course. With this said, the cost of living is clarified or can be gleaned by context virtually anywhere set in lore - questions surrounding this can be directed to lore developers of the respective topic.
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
'''The Specifics of the Credit'''
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
The Sol Alliance Standard Credit (电), or just The Credit, is the standardized unit of currency across known space, and which was adopted for the interstellar currency of the other major races. Its physical notes are often nicknamed "Creds".


Whereas most currencies are based on the worth of a specific mineral, such as gold, or silver, the Credit is based on energy: a single credit is backed by five hundred kilowatt-hours (KWh) of energy. Given the extreme dependency of electricity on most developed planets, and the absolute necessity of electricity in outer-space, this has proven to be the only method of backing a currency uniformly on the galactic stage. 1 Sol Alliance Credit (Cr/电) = 500 KWh of electric energy.
===People’s Republic of Adhomai===
NanoTrasen has played an important role in Adhomai since its discovery; through the support of the rebels, supplying the People’s Republic with technology, and offering job opportunities to the population. The PRA is NanoTrasen’s biggest ally on the planet, with much of its economy bound to the megacorp. Corporate interests are mainly focused on obtaining cheap labor and mining Adhomai’s rich mineral deposits. Despite the prosperity brought by this relationship, many Tajara are against the megacorporation’s interference in the affairs of the Tajara people. Alongside the political crises, NanoTrasen’s presence was one of the main reasons for the Second Revolution. Even after the Armistice, the People’s Republic continues its policy of maintaining a strong relationship with the corporation. Tajara working for NanoTrasen usually have more opportunities than with other employers.


Credits are available in electronic, bank card and traditional note forms. They are available in one, five, ten, twenty, fifty, five hundred and one thousand credit notes. For values in between these, or for a more secure transfer, it is possible to obtain charge chips, which carry an exact value in credits.
===Republic of Biesel===
</div></div>
NanoTrasen holds an undisputed monopoly over the Republic of Biesel’s phoron reserves, and all newly staked deposits found under Biesellite banners. Needless to say, their power within the Republic is without contest due to this. At every echelon of the Republic’s government is some sort of NanoTrasen interference to advise and even direct the young nation’s every move. Inarguably the outcome of this has yielded positive results ; now, the Republic sits on the largest wealth the galaxy has ever known, free of the debts that cripple the Alliance or the disarray of Coalition politics.
</div></div>
===Known Space - [[The Orion Spur]]===
The setting is based in the majority of the '''Orion Spur,''' the part of the Milky Way in which the [[Sol]] System - and its surrounding hundred lightyears, roughly - resides. It is very open-ended and diverse in its nature, and not wholly charted yet - the deep Frontier hardly scratches the surface of the unknowable depths of the galaxy.  


'''More details on the expanse of the mapped galaxy can be found [[The Orion Spur|here.]]'''
===Sol Alliance===
The Solarian Alliance’ sour relation with NanoTrasen is no secret, as the contest of power between the Republic of Biesel and itself has been chronicled since the Republic’s founding in 2452. NanoTrasen has held together as the unshakeable foundation of the Biesellite country which it practically owns, and Alliance officials could not be any more displeased about this. Logically speaking, the Republic is a fractured state of the Alliance, metaphorically owned by a company which holds power over its primary fuel source presumably forever. The obvious conflict of interests here is further compounded by the nature of the Alliance’ rogue admiralty. Twice in the past have rogue Solarian admirals engaged the Republic in an attempt to seize NanoTrasen’s monopoly, neither finding much success in the end.


The expansion of Humanity has reached out in every direction, only stopping in the galactic west as they border the Jargon Federation. Otherwise, their all-encompassing exploration has given them free reign to conquer the untouched - or abandoned - regions of the galaxy.
===Ceres Lance===
Will dump info here


The major Human factions of the Orion Spur are numerous, but share a common theme in that they are universally affected by a catastrophe known as the Interstellar War. From this disastrous conflict, many new factions cropped up, with most opposed to the rule of the Sol Alliance.
Heph relations
==Relations with Trans-stellar Factions==


{{Aurora Starmap}}
Relations with all corporations are heavily tied to every echelon of even the most detached factions in the Orion Spur. As the corporations have seeped into every facet of one’s livelihood as far as the eye can see, few find it unimportant to maintain some degree of knowledge on the megacorps.


==Common Sentient Species==
This megacorporation’s noteworthy relations with the major powers are below, and may be very important to you.
These are common sentient species found throughout known space.
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Skrell]]====
[[File:Starter_skrell.png]]
An amphibian race hailing from Jargon IV, Qerrbalak.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
An amphibious species whose passion mostly lays in the field of the combined sciences, the Skrell are the second oldest and first most advanced known species present on the galactic stage. The Skrell evolved on a planet covered in vast swamps and freshwater seas, also being one of the only species in the Orion Spur to naturally develop psionics.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Unathi]]====
[[File:Starter unathi.png]]
A reptilian race hailing from Moghes.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
The cold-blooded Unathi are a race of tall humanoid reptiles from their war-torn homeworld of Moghes. The planet’s history can be summarized as being dominated by various Clans of Unathi, with the strongest being the Hegemon of Moghes. Following first contact with Skrell and Humanity, there was a violent outbreak of nuclear war that formed a vast world-dominating desert called the Wasteland which has made life difficult for the Unathi. The surviving side of this war, the Izweski Hegemony, has struggled to bring a balance between expanding their empire off-world, or reconstructing their ancestral planet. Grandiose and Space-Operatic, the themes behind Unathi follow the struggle of religion, spirituality, honor, and rigid gender roles.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Tajara]]====
[[File:Tajaraexpandedbackground.png]]
A feline-like race hailing from Adhomai.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
The Tajaran race is a species of feline-like bipeds hailing from the planet of [[Adhomai]] in the S'rand'marr system. They have been brought up into the space age by the Humans and Skrell, who alledgedly influenced their eventual revolution that overthrew their ancient monarchies to become a totalitarian - and NanoTrasen friendly - republic. Adhomai is currently under a cold war between three factions in the aftermath of a global conflict, and many Tajara are fleeing their homeworld to seek safety and employment in human space.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Vaurca]] (Vaurcae)====
[[File:Starter vaurca.png]]
An insectoid race hailing from Sedantis I.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
The mostly bipedal, insectoid creatures hailing from the moon known as Sedantis I, Vaurca (Vaurca in singular term and Vaurcae in multiple), were discovered after the first hiveship contact in human space, 2456. They once had access to great technology, however they had to flee their doomed homeworld. They have a complex caste system based on three types, and use something known as the hivenet to communicate in thoughts and feelings near instantly between themselves, and enter a paradisiacal virtual reality. They require phoron to respirate, as well as requiring a unique and dangerous fungus, the k’ois spore, to sustain them. Although barely tolerated in the known galaxy, many have found homes in the more unkempt areas of their host’s society. There are four known hives - Zo’ra, K’lax, C’thur, and Lii’dra. The largest, and most common hive in Tau Ceti is the Zo'ra hive. The Lii’dra, unique in that they are a true hivemind, are known as a powerful and secretive force and are hostile to most other entities known - including the other hives.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Dionae]]====
[[File:Starter dionae.png]]
A mysterious plant-like race hailing from the depths of space.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
Dionae (D. Primis) are a rather strange, cryptic species in comparison to the rest found in the Orion Spur. They have various forms comprised of cat-sized caterpillar-like creatures with a curious, childlike disposition - called Dionae Nymphs.


Almost every aspect of the species is a mystery; their origins, their behaviour, and functions. What is known is that they are capable of great intellectual and biological feats that are studied across the Spur. Biologically, Dionae are a form of gestalt consciousness, however, it is only evident in forms that amount to two or more Nymphs. Dionae survive primarily on off of the electromagnetic spectrum and biological matter.
===Izweski Hegemony===
</div></div>
A marriage between one of the most robust companies and a species known for its strength was almost inevitable. After the Hegemony's pseudo-falling out with NanoTrasen five years prior, Hephaestus quickly swooped in to fill the void the other megacorp left, and has developed a strong and close partnership with the Hegemony ever since. Hephaestus' knack for mining, engineering, and general construction has proved useful for integrating itself into the post-Contact War economy, becoming a staple service for repairing, rebuilding, and reclaiming what's left of Moghes. Hephaestus has also seen profitable enterprise from purchasing the scrap of the old unathi countries in the Wasteland to turn back into usable metal, as well as a middling mining enterprise on Ouerea to help fund construction efforts across the galaxy. Needless to say, this megacorporation has become a vital part of the Izweski Hegemony's economy, and any expansion efforts made by Hegemon Not'zar will see a profitable cut made for Hephaestus as well.
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[IPC|Integrated Positronic Chassis]] (IPC)====
[[File:Starter ipcs.png]]
Robotic entities making use of Skrellian AI algorithms to match sentience, to a degree.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
An Integrated Positronic Chassis, or IPC, is an artificial intelligence inside of a bipedal, humanoid frame. IPCs are primarily characterized by their autonomy, not being bound to a master AI or set of laws. Often built to carry out a single, career-related purpose, they come in many different chassis, with varying degrees of intelligence. Within known space, their existence is a contentious topic with IPCs being seen as property or second-class citizens, undeserving of the rights other species possess.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Synthetics|Synthetics, more generally]]====
[[File:Starter borg.png]]
Robots in the galaxy, endlessly diverse.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
The term “synthetic” refers to a broad range of autonomous machinery. Dabbled with, first by the ancient skrell, and now humanity, synthetics can be classified primarily by the method of their intelligence. They include simple machinery not out of place in the 21st century, cyborgs, autonomous robots on circuitry, and now, advanced sentient artificial intelligences stored on positronic brains.
</div></div>
==Major Factions==
These are the dominant political players in the Orion Spur that are relevant to you, the player. Any of these factions can be utilized in backstories or as origins for characters - go crazy!


'''Important note : ''' These factions are only the key players in the setting. Nothing stops you from making up your own origin wherever you'd like, so long as it does not contest standing lore's canon. When in doubt, ask a lore writer!
===Coalition of Colonies===
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
The relations between Hephaestus and the Coalition of Colonies is notably sour. Years upon years of defiling outer worlds in favor of the industrial machine, only to be dropped as soon as executives deem it necessary have led to tremendous repercussions in the eyes of the Frontiersfolk that inhabited them. Terraforming operations across the Frontier have frequently met outright militant opposition as Hephaestus Industries pursued the wealth of material and property over sentient rights. Arguably, great strides have been taken by the corporation itself to heal the wounds caused by these actions. These include frequent changes to regulations and the overall rulebook, trying to gain the favor of the increasingly powerful Coalition down to the working man. Frontiersfolk often reach miraculous business deals and positions in Hephaestus as a result.
====[[Republic of Biesel]]====
The core location of the setting itself. A bastion of prosperity amidst chaos.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
[[Image:Republicofbieselflag.png|65px|right]]
The Republic of Biesel is an independent system within the core of Human space. It is heavily tied to the NanoTrasen corporation at every level of government, and may as well be considered as governed by it to begin with. The Republic of Biesel is the government of the Tau Ceti System, exercising authority over Biesel, New Gibson and all other settlements and installations within Tau Ceti's gravity well. It is one of the most populated systems in human space, a financial center, industrial powerhouse and one of the most prestigious systems in the galaxy. However, unrest and gridlock undermine the government, and the aggressive attitude of the Sol Alliance against its former system has made many worried of the future of the Republic.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Sol Alliance]]====
A crumbling giant whose golden age has long passed.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
[[File:Sol Alliance Flag.png|65px|right]]
One of, if not the most populated singular government entity in known space is the Sol Alliance. It is a fading juggernaut with few who compare to its political power. However, its claims to this power have faded immensely in the years since the Interstellar War, and in its place the Megacorporations now reside. No longer looming overhead, the Sol Alliance still remains a threat to the Free Frontier. The Sol Alliance is a vastly varying mixture of high urban development and rural living, which exemplifies the conditions one can expect as you grow further from the Core Worlds. In the middle and outer ring, quality of life deteriorates, with border worlds often outright opposed to their Solarian control due to mistreatment or utter incapability to maintain proper oversight. However, closer to the Republic of Biesel, and in the center of Humanity’s power lay Earth and the Jewel Worlds, which very few worlds can compare to.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Coalition of Colonies]]====
Freedom and independence embodied on an interstellar scale.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
[[File:Frontier_Alliance_Flag.png|65px|right]]
This loosely confederated Coalition is the largest power in the frontier, and possibly the most populous entity in the Orion Spur. It is the largest fracture from the Sol Alliance after the Interstellar War, and covers several regions with its utterly tremendous borders. The systems of the Coalition greatly value their independence and freedom. A few powerful systems dominate the politics of the Frontier, headed by the Xanu Free League - the capital of it all. Many of those in the Coalition of Colonies harbor distrust of the Sol Alliance even after the end of the Interstellar War. Humans and aliens from any and all ethnicities, as well as any combination of them, can be found in the Coalition of Colonies.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Republic of Elyra]]====
Glistening utopian city-scapes and technological might.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
[[File:Elyra Flag.png|65px|right]]
The Republic of Elyra, or its more official name, The Serene Republic of Elyra, is a bustling, benevolent independent power in the Badlands. It is made up of multiple star systems, with its capital in the highly developed technological utopia of Perispolis. Its national motto is "For Greatness We Strive". It is known for its exotic culture, highly progressive - if Pro-Human nature, and advanced industrial wonders. Elyra is one of the only three factions in the Orion Spur which innately possess phoron deposits of any sort, something they have exploited to their fullest potential in recent years.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Empire of Dominia]]====
Religious pride in the Emperor and country.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
[[File:Dominia_Flag.png|40px|right]]
A heavily religious absolute monarchy with its capital, Nova Luxembourg, on the planet of Moroz in the X’yr Vharn’p system. This autocratic state is ruled by His Imperial Majesty Boleslaw Keeser. The Empire of Dominia was proclaimed in 2437 by Unathi raiders who invaded the planet of Moroz, a colony which had been isolated for hundreds of years. Imperial society is dominated by the Great and Minor Houses under the Emperor and is very socio-economically stratified due to the so-called blood debt, known as the Mor’iz’al.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Eridani Federation]]====
Corporation-dominated hell, personified through a terrible societal split.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
[[File:Eridani Logo.png|65px|right]]
Eridani, or the Eridani Corporate Federation, is an oligarchic republic in the Epsilon Eridani system dominated entirely by a council of mega-corporations that seek profit and expansion at any cost. It has no official capital - government authority is exercised digitally. The Corporate Federation is known as one of the core economic powers of Solarian space, and is technically under Solarian supervision - though the true extent of this is up for debate. Corporations, in reality, rule the gloomy landscapes of the Corporate Federation’s worlds. Its citizens are called Eridanians. Eridanians are famed for their vicious treatment of one another, distinguishing between two primary classes ; Dregs, and Suits - who in effect represent a fine line between poverty and wealth.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====The Free Frontier====
Whatever you want. Really.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
The frontier consists of all space unclaimed by one of the major interstellar powers. The population of the frontier is difficult to estimate, but conservative guesses place it between 25 and 50 billion. The government, technological development, economy, and social systems of these independent systems vary wildly. Piracy, corporate exploitation, and smuggling are commonplace throughout the frontier. People hailing from these areas, known as frontiersmen, are known for their rugged independence and distrust of megacorporations and government alike.
</div></div>
==Non-Human Factions==
Xeno factions independently hardly parallel the combined prevalence of Humanity. However, major factions such as the Jargon Federation - which borders the Sol Alliance directly, and exercise total authority over their controlled space, are seen as key players in galactic politics.
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Jargon Federation]]====
An higher-up galactic player, authoritarian in its nature.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
[[File:jargon_flag.jpg|65px|right]]
The Jargon Federation is a centralized union of systems, ran by councillors representing Skrell interests in a clear hierarchy. Although humans have fractured heavily in their expansion, Skrell have remained in largely a singular government through strict reinforcement of education and laws, working as a democratic meritocracy. Social media is maintained by the Federation government, who gag unacceptable discussions or thoughts and instead encourage people to be like the Idols that they reward with credits, high quality housing, and fine living.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[Unathi|Izweski Nation]]====
The proud Unathi Hegemony in all its glory.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
[[File:Moghes_porposal.png|65px|right]]
The Izweski Clan is led by Clan Leader Not'zar Izweski , a Unathi who has ruled the Hegemony since his father S'kresti Izweski, the previous Hegemon, was assassinated. Under him are the Lords who rule their own subjugated clans. They live in a feudal system, with the Lords usually being clan leaders or important clan members themselves who pledge themselves to Izweski in exchange for land and protection. After the Contact War devastated the Unathi homeworld, the Izweski Hegemony has struggled to follow traditions to keep themselves in power.
</div></div>
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
====[[People's Republic of Adhomai]]====
The most powerful and only space-faring state in Adhomai.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
[[File:PRA Flag.png|65px|right]]
Led by President Njadrasanukii Hadii, the People’s Republic of Adhomai are considered the 'loyalist' faction on Adhomai and once enjoyed galactic recognition as the government of Adhomai. It claims to be the true keeper of Al’marii’s legacy. However, the PRA can be described as a Hadiist branch of Al’marii’s revolutionary ideology - that means putting the State at the top of a hierarchy of power. The PRA is a very centralized state, but in recent years has slowly been able to start making true its promises to bring revolution to the masses. With land reform, enfranchisement of women and peasantry, literacy initiatives, and the collectivization of farms and the means of production, the PRA is struggling to hold true to its radical ideals while an entrenched upper party stubbornly tries to hold onto power.
</div></div>


'''From this point, you are again encouraged to move onto [[Guides/Character Creation]] provided you're at a loss for what to do.'''
However, the Coalition’s vast nature has offered variety to the situation ; areas such as Burzsia remain utterly loyal to Hephaestus, contrary to the complete hostility by Himeo. Both are members of the growing Coalition.

Zavodskoi relations - goes on zavod page

Relations with Trans-stellar Factions

Relations with all corporations are heavily tied to every echelon of even the most detached factions in the Orion Spur. As the corporations have seeped into every facet of one’s livelihood as far as the eye can see, few find it unimportant to maintain some degree of knowledge on the megacorps.

This megacorporation’s noteworthy relations with the major powers are below, and may be very important to you.

Stellar Corporate Conglomerate

The newly founded Conglomerate’s ties with Zavodskoi are blatant with a newly founded Corporate Force Projection Fleet bearing weapons, munitions and equipment of Zavodskoi make across the board. From high-end starship pieces to antique small arms, Zavodskoi provides it all, making them a key player in the Conglomerate’s private military. P

Synthetics

Since its rebranding from Necropolis Industries, Zavodskoi Interstellar often employs synthetics as precise, dextrous labor in machining, manufacturing and blanket industrial work. Many stubborn advocates of hand-crafting and several subsidiaries oriented around quality have made large steps towards vilifying these robotic mechanics, claiming that the “organic touch” is the key to quality, rather than objective fact. This case often seeps down to the working persons of the company through rough opinion of the synthetics which threaten the work of their lives. Contrarily, major steps to save the company face have echoed from executives, painting out a confusing and chaotic internal struggle against synthetics in the company.

The Empire of Dominia

Since its arrival in the Dominian industrial scene, Zavodskoi has made headway to monopolizing itself over the fledgling empire as best it can, to decent success. Its sway in the Imperial politics up high remain a mystery, but the certainty of Zavodskoi presence across the Empire’s domain is all there. In recent times, the company can be found reaching out to various establishments in the Empire in an attempt to, for whatever reason it can make up, buy them out. Whether this is a pitiful desperate attempt to grab power or grow a new monopoly is on you to decide.

Zeng-hu relations

Relations with Trans-stellar Factions

Relations with all corporations are heavily tied to every echelon of even the most detached factions in the Orion Spur. As the corporations have seeped into every facet of one’s livelihood as far as the eye can see, few find it unimportant to maintain some degree of knowledge on the megacorps.

This megacorporation’s noteworthy relations with the major powers are below, and may be very important to you.

Jargon Federation

Despite Jargon's internal economy being wholly state-controlled, the Federation's medical academics and researchers have kept an especially amiable relation with the medical megacorporation since the days of first contact. Zeng-Hu's mass presence in Epsilon Eridani, within direct Bluespace Gate reach of the Federation's core worlds, and their mutual research deals with the Aliose University of Medical Sciences have turned them into the most prominent human corporate players toward the Skrellian government, affording them an unique position in galactic affairs.

Sol Alliance

Holding a stranglehold over all medical care in the Solarian Alliance, Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals has utterly squashed any opposition in terms of healthcare for the entirety of its space. Owing to its age and endless information of the field, the pedantics of any medical mishap that occurs anywhere, anyhow, anytime will surely make its way to Zeng-Hu from Sol. The company has faced much criticism for the inadvertent leaking of medical data and confidential information across it, but without any alternative, Alliance citizens find themselves frequently indebted to the corporation all the same.

NT relations

Relations with Trans-stellar Factions

Relations with all corporations are heavily tied to every echelon of even the most detached factions in the Orion Spur. As the corporations have seeped into every facet of one’s livelihood as far as the eye can see, few find it unimportant to maintain some degree of knowledge on the megacorps.

This megacorporation’s noteworthy relations with the major powers are below, and may be very important to you.

People’s Republic of Adhomai

NanoTrasen has played an important role in Adhomai since its discovery; through the support of the rebels, supplying the People’s Republic with technology, and offering job opportunities to the population. The PRA is NanoTrasen’s biggest ally on the planet, with much of its economy bound to the megacorp. Corporate interests are mainly focused on obtaining cheap labor and mining Adhomai’s rich mineral deposits. Despite the prosperity brought by this relationship, many Tajara are against the megacorporation’s interference in the affairs of the Tajara people. Alongside the political crises, NanoTrasen’s presence was one of the main reasons for the Second Revolution. Even after the Armistice, the People’s Republic continues its policy of maintaining a strong relationship with the corporation. Tajara working for NanoTrasen usually have more opportunities than with other employers.

Republic of Biesel

NanoTrasen holds an undisputed monopoly over the Republic of Biesel’s phoron reserves, and all newly staked deposits found under Biesellite banners. Needless to say, their power within the Republic is without contest due to this. At every echelon of the Republic’s government is some sort of NanoTrasen interference to advise and even direct the young nation’s every move. Inarguably the outcome of this has yielded positive results ; now, the Republic sits on the largest wealth the galaxy has ever known, free of the debts that cripple the Alliance or the disarray of Coalition politics.

Sol Alliance

The Solarian Alliance’ sour relation with NanoTrasen is no secret, as the contest of power between the Republic of Biesel and itself has been chronicled since the Republic’s founding in 2452. NanoTrasen has held together as the unshakeable foundation of the Biesellite country which it practically owns, and Alliance officials could not be any more displeased about this. Logically speaking, the Republic is a fractured state of the Alliance, metaphorically owned by a company which holds power over its primary fuel source presumably forever. The obvious conflict of interests here is further compounded by the nature of the Alliance’ rogue admiralty. Twice in the past have rogue Solarian admirals engaged the Republic in an attempt to seize NanoTrasen’s monopoly, neither finding much success in the end.

Heph relations

Relations with Trans-stellar Factions

Relations with all corporations are heavily tied to every echelon of even the most detached factions in the Orion Spur. As the corporations have seeped into every facet of one’s livelihood as far as the eye can see, few find it unimportant to maintain some degree of knowledge on the megacorps.

This megacorporation’s noteworthy relations with the major powers are below, and may be very important to you.

Izweski Hegemony

A marriage between one of the most robust companies and a species known for its strength was almost inevitable. After the Hegemony's pseudo-falling out with NanoTrasen five years prior, Hephaestus quickly swooped in to fill the void the other megacorp left, and has developed a strong and close partnership with the Hegemony ever since. Hephaestus' knack for mining, engineering, and general construction has proved useful for integrating itself into the post-Contact War economy, becoming a staple service for repairing, rebuilding, and reclaiming what's left of Moghes. Hephaestus has also seen profitable enterprise from purchasing the scrap of the old unathi countries in the Wasteland to turn back into usable metal, as well as a middling mining enterprise on Ouerea to help fund construction efforts across the galaxy. Needless to say, this megacorporation has become a vital part of the Izweski Hegemony's economy, and any expansion efforts made by Hegemon Not'zar will see a profitable cut made for Hephaestus as well.

Coalition of Colonies

The relations between Hephaestus and the Coalition of Colonies is notably sour. Years upon years of defiling outer worlds in favor of the industrial machine, only to be dropped as soon as executives deem it necessary have led to tremendous repercussions in the eyes of the Frontiersfolk that inhabited them. Terraforming operations across the Frontier have frequently met outright militant opposition as Hephaestus Industries pursued the wealth of material and property over sentient rights. Arguably, great strides have been taken by the corporation itself to heal the wounds caused by these actions. These include frequent changes to regulations and the overall rulebook, trying to gain the favor of the increasingly powerful Coalition down to the working man. Frontiersfolk often reach miraculous business deals and positions in Hephaestus as a result.

However, the Coalition’s vast nature has offered variety to the situation ; areas such as Burzsia remain utterly loyal to Hephaestus, contrary to the complete hostility by Himeo. Both are members of the growing Coalition.

Idris relations

Relations with Trans-stellar Factions

Relations with all corporations are heavily tied to every echelon of even the most detached factions in the Orion Spur. As the corporations have seeped into every facet of one’s livelihood as far as the eye can see, few find it unimportant to maintain some degree of knowledge on the megacorps.
