Neospace Factions

[Fargo]

This is long overdue, but I've made a short writeup for a breif description of the major factions in Neospace.

Right now for Player Charachters we are only allowing those of the Terran Confederation, Talosian Republic or any number of minor factions and independants which are too numerous in space realistically to list.

If you do have an idea for a minor org/faction here you are more then welcome to post it on a new thread either here or in the IC advertisements section.

We typically do NOT allow charachters from the Tariez Empire, they are a plot device for the story of Neospace and may show up again as an NPC OMG! later.

Terran Confederation

The Terran Confederation is the largest and one of the strongest standing empires in Neospace, although years of Civil war, the recent Great War with the Tariez and unrest among some of its colonies has created many sub-factions and independent colonies across Confederation space. The confederation therefore is not nearly as powerful or as organized as it once was but is still a very domineering force in known space.

The Terran Confederation is based on Terra, also known to Earth. It comprises mostly of humans with Recombinants mixed in, though several minor races, including the Selven, have joined the vast Confederation in its mission to spread humanity throughout the quadrant and regain the glory of what once was before the Great War.

PC Races in the Confederation: Humans, Recombinants, Selvan, Android

Talosian Star Republic

The Talosian Republic is an expanding, and highly advanced empire consisting mostly of Talosians; a bipedal domestic canine like alien race.

The Talosians are a young race in terms of being able to navigate the stars, and received a technology boost from the Confederation a mere 50 years ago. Since then they have not only re-engineered much of the confederation’s technology; they have found ways to improve and enhance it, even inventing some technology of there own.

While the Talosian Republic is not nearly as large as the Terran Confederation, they are growing in empire size and power and operate on a very organized governmental and political base.

Combined with their growing influence and enhanced technology, the Talosian Star Republic has managed to become a major power and significant threat to the Confederation’s goal to control space.

The Talosian Republic consists of mostly Talosians; though some of the outer colonies that were originally settled by the Confederation consist of Humans and Recoms too.

PC Races in the Republic: Talosian (Humans and Recoms may be allowed to be aligned with the Talosian Star Republic in the outer colonies as well)

Tariez Empire

Very little is actually known about the Tariez Empire. They have technology vastly superior to that of the Confederation or Talosian Republic. No one truly knows where the Empire’s homeworld is and how they got their advanced technology if they did indeed originate from Humans on Terra centuries ago.

During the Great War ten years ago; the Terran Confederation and Talosian Star Republic forged a grand alliance to repel the invaders from the Tariez Empire in known space. The Tariez’s goal in this war was to purify the human race by wiping out all other alien species and recombinants, and re-populating the Confederation and Talosian Republic with a master race of Human perfection.

While the invaders were repelled, no one really knows where the heart of the Tariez Empire lies, so a counter attack proved impossible. With the invaders repelled the Grand Alliance eventually fell apart and the Confederation and Talosian Star Republic became engaged in a power struggle and Cold War along the borders of both empires.

What little Tariez technology was captured during the Great War still remains a mystery to both Terran and Talosian Scientists who work round the clock to try to unlock the advanced technology.

Races: Human only.
