History
In the year 2947 BBT, a star now known as Teshar experienced a supernova, leaving behind only a black hole and fragmenting the Venterran ringworld research outpost. A small 30,000 kilometer segment of the outpost survived (total area 6,000,000 square km), being quickly abandoned but retaining power through ambient radiation from the black hole. In 1602 BBT, a probe from the outpost, having collected a substantial number of biological specimens and technical information from around the sector, docked with the segment and deactivated, releasing the specimens onboard.
The more intelligent species quickly began to reverse-engineer some of the tech from around them, allowing them to survive on the abandoned segment. Robotic augmentations partially replaced their need for oxygen with electrical power, and also allowed them to communicate digitally, rather than through the rudimentary sign-language they had initially developed. Genetic advancements allowed them to wrangle the uncooperative genes of various species together. These developments left them more resembling one other than their original species, resulting in the development of a single term to refer to them all: “Amicem”.
Roughly 200 years after the unification of the Amicem, many began to gain interest in leaving Ferristia to look for information about the Venterrans. Advanced FTL technology eluded them, but within 30 years, primitive spaceflight had been achieved. During the early years of interstellar travel, before the discovery of FTL travel, a colonist’s consciousness was stored in a chip called a ‘cortical stack’ while their body [called a ‘sleeve’ while not in use] were put in cold storage until the seedship reached its destination.
Stacks were abandoned once the first FTL ships were created in 903 BBT, leading to a boom in interest in colonial efforts. More than 40 dozen systems have been explored since the discovery, with almost 50 planetary colonies therein. So far, 6 of these colonies have grown large enough to be considered regional capitals, each administrating roughly 32,000 square lightyears. The following table illustrates these colonies, their founding year, and the year of their ratification as regional capitals (both BBT):
| Founding | Regional Capital Ratification | |
|---|---|---|
| Tlesh | 395 | 158 |
| Mots | 78 | 31 |
| Wlung | 248 | 106 |
| Srow | 497 | 345 |
| Unga | 150 | 103 |
