mission to Providence
and other Border Worlds of The Cluster.
DEFINE > THE
CLUSTER
Region of space more
densely packed with stars than any other in
the Milky Way galaxy, possibly due to extremely high concentration of
dark
matter and dark energy; this is perhaps the highest concentration in
the known
universe. The Cluster contains hundreds of star systems, some packed so
closely
together it takes only a few days at near light speed to travel from
one to the
other.
The Cluster is home to numerous life
forms, humanoid and
other. Among the indigenous races are
the empathic and pacific Siasl, the mindgaming Mentaki and the all
female Vul. Most of these species are situated close
together, within the area of The Cluster containing the greatest
amounts of
natural resources that humanoid lifeforms would need. Other lifeforms
proliferate
in other areas.
DEFINE > UNITED
SYSTEMS
A loose alliance of 187 worlds
administered by 13 ambassadors.
Founding races include Siasl, Mentaki, Mari, Tellurians. Other members
include
Vul, Krae, Tibulu, Pret —

DEFINE >
TELLURIANS
Humanoid lifeform originating on what
is now called Old Earth.
Select members of species migrated to the Cluster in Sleeper Ships
journeying
approximately 450 light years. Reached The Cluster after approximately
900
years. Settled on two planets. Re designated themselves Tellurians upon
establishing settlements on those worlds. Approximations are due to
damage to
Tellurian ships, possibly from the high concentrations of dark matter
and dark
energy. Many of their records have been lost or distorted. Because of
this
damage, the location of Old Earth is unknown.
DEFINE > SIASL
A peaceful people. Siasl
had not thought fixation upon a single
point of view possible until they encountered other races of The
Cluster. Empathic
with each other, there is no known instance of any Siasl ever unable to
see the
point of view of another in a dispute. There are disputes and
disagreements,
but the natural lenity of the Siasl people has always makes it possible
for an
acceptable solution to be quickly derived.
This empathy makes them
natural ambassadors to the other races
living in the Cluster, a position the Siasl readily embraced after
developing
space travel and making contact with beings of other worlds. Their
peaceful
ways strongly influence most worlds of the United Systems though
contention
remains with neighboring planets and solar systems not affiliated with
Unisis.
All Siasl are sensitive to dark matter
and dark energy due to
internal organs not found in most other species. Some Siasl can
manipulate dark
matter and dark energy to dramatic and powerful effect. Erin Starfox is
one
such individual.
