Seventeen years ago, Earth was deemed uninhabitable for the human race. Now, another species, Groggs, live there. They kindly requested permission after the humans fled earth. Their request was approved without conflict. At least our old home could be of use to somebody. The Grogg were kind enough to send any remaining human artifacts to different colonies where humans were known to inhabit, though there was rarely anything useful found.
Despite the Grogg's kindness to humans, most other species despised us. They considered us filth, pollutants. We didn't deserve to live, given what happened to our planet. Of course, it did nothing to help that we were all running from one of the more technologically powerful alien species. Sorian. The Sorian are a race of humanoid aliens. They have a similar shape to humans, though they are mostly made of energy. They have no nose, and seemingly no ears, and their skin glows blue. They only have hair on their heads, the rest of their body is covered in scattered white furs.
They don't rule space, by any means. However, they are definitely feared. No race wishes to cross them. Even the remaining humans. Instead, we wish to hide away in colonies, intermixed with other aliens, or completely alone in abandoned shuttle-yards. Humans cannot be out in the open. Not with the Sorian looking to kill all humans. Apparently, they were afraid of our advances. We were becoming too powerful. Too intelligent. We were becoming an even bigger threat than before. Though we still don't know why.
Now, we are spread out. Living an unfulfilled life. Now, other species are beginning to betray us in fear of their own lives. Or for something in return. Seventeen years of survival, and now we are all in great threat again.

The large ship pulled toward the colony. The engines reversed to slow their decent before successfully docking. The captain walked down one of the corridors to the large door that opened to another long corridor. Once he stepped foot onto the colony, he was shocked to see there were all ready more humans here than had been estimated. They bustled around a circular marketplace. There were Siz'lhyuon eyes, Flygian eggs, and even Toko Yon noodles. This place was well-fed. At least that was something good.
The captain glanced around briefly, taking in the amazing site of so many humans in one place. Children played hopscotch near the center of the market, while others sat obediently behind various booths. There were several hallways off the large circular room. One stated Infirmary, another Wing 1, Wing 2, and so on. The one directly behind him stated Docking. He took another step forward, ready to begin his mission. Recruiting other humans to come with him and fight. Come with him and try to save these colonies. Save the human race.
RACES
- Groggs - Large brown creatures with small round ears on top of their head.

- Mahg - Bat-like race with a slight humanoid appearance
- Tarrin - Slime creatures.
- Revven - Species of intelligent quadrupedal mammals. There are several sub-species. Some resemble a cat or a dog, others resemble a reptilian creature, while some resemble nothing.
- Codeling (by Silver) - A Codeling is a manufactured race. Codelings came about when researchers tried to use codes and minimal technology to see how they could change a life form. There aren't many labs who produce Codelings. But there are a few around the universe. Test subjects are sold to the lab while they are just infants. Experiments begin the second the new subject arrives and finishes their medical exams. After that, scientists inject code through nanomachines into the temple of the subjects, close to the brain. The nanomachines than travel through he blood and begin to attach themselves to the brain of the subject. This process is continued over time. Not many subjects survive the experiments, But for those who do, the codes alter the base species development some, usually in the form of physical coloration, occasionally other physical attributes, and a diverse possibilities of abilities. Most of these abilities are technomancer ish in form. Codelings can be produced from several different species of life forms, researches have yet to isolate the common trait that allows some Codelings to live while others die. The only non organic thing done to the Codelings is the injection of the nanomachines that transfers the code to the subjects brain. No other alterations are down to the subjects.
- Aseiirin - (by Requiem): The Aseiirin, or as they're more commonly known, Ghosts, are a species of humanoids that developed in an incredibly odd way. Their molecular structure is transient and they are capable of becoming both incorporeal and invisible for short periods of time. They are born fully capable of surviving on their own, which is good as they can't be taken care of by their parents as they are born and spend most of their early years invisible and incorporeal, feeding off natural energies in the environment. It isn't until they've been alive for about seven years that they leave this state of protection. Overall, they appear to be human, with next to nothing to give them away except for the odd chance of being caught while incorporeal and still visible. They are very rare though as they rarely find others of their own kind, and crossbreeds are less likely to carry the Ghost Genes. When they do meet their own kind though, they can tell, as the Aseiirin have a unique appearance to eachother, giving off a slightly glow. This glows colour differs from Ghost to Ghost, but it is always there. When they reach the age of embracing (Becoming Physical), they typically make their way to the nearest settlement, regardless of it's inhabitants, and try to get themselves adopted by a family within. Those who don't are kept in orphanages, and stay there until they feel they can make an escape and try again in a different area.
- Larium (by ET4252): PM ET4252 to use! The Larium are a race found almost solely on a small heavily forested planet of Felraton. There are very sociable and have been seen living in packs numbering in the fifties. They seem to be relitively intelligent but, with very little outside interactions over the years it is sometimes hard to tell. Over the years they have evolved to navigate the massive trees that cover just under half the planet. Their most noticable trait is the fact that they have two sets of arms, one located in the same place as a humans the second set situated a bit further down. Their nails are very long and sharp, even their toe nails, giving them wonderful grip even when there are no branches present. Living so far up they had to find some way of hunting the small animals that lived on the forest floor. To this end they now have large conical ears like those of a cat and big eyes with excellent vision. They are known to be both active and ambush hunters, individuals usually the ones actively hunting while larger groups will split up with a couple herding prey to where the rest lie waiting in ambush, ready to kill with either their claws or large canines. In a life time an individual will only produce around three offspring, with their biggest threat being members of their own pack. In an pack changes in authority are very common with the offspring of the loosing side sometimes getting killed. To combat this the Larium have evolved an odd method of prefeventing this. In every generation there are born a couple individuals that are born bigger and tougher than the usual stock. These are the Nalna, which roughly translates to Shepard. Besides being generally bigger and stronger they have very strong parenting insincts. These Lariums either live on their own or in groups of up to five. After a cub is wheened it is handed over to the first Nalna that the parent can find. As a general rule the Nalna will not have any more than about six cubs to take care off at once, however that number goes up when Nalna's team up with a group of three once being seen with about 35 different children. And it is not just members of their own species, the nuturing instinct is so strong that one individual was observed with at least 5 different species under her care.
- Kadal (by ET4252): PM ET4252 to use! The Kadal are a very intelligent race from the planet Durnara. They are like humans in that they are known to fit a variety of roles from scholars to laborers. There are however very popular as workers as they are quite the heavily lifters. Their skin varies in shade from a nearly white purple to something just a few shades off from royal purple. They are known to have odd horizontal pupils that also vary widely in color. (For more details see Ben's appearence)
