Sphere:Longshots
It's 2170. About 100 years since founding, and hundreds of light years from Earth. You don't really care. They've never spoken to you. All you have are second-hand tales from trade caravans, about FTL failures and killer drones. They call it 'the Rim', but you just call it home.
History Paths
A1) Origins
- Pioneers
- Some people petitioned the posthumans with the pure spirit of adventure. With no frontiers left on Earth, only longshots could satisfy the human drive for exploration and discovery.
- Seperatists
- Others left to escape persecution, real or imagined. Distance from Earth would shield them and let them start anew.
- Idealists
- Still others held in their minds an ideal for society. By travelling to a new land with like-minded people, they could make a better life, on sound principles.
