Welcome to Thursday's Pact Days! Today, we have the Feteine.
In Striker, three were introduced. Europa Astarte, Laertes Arcessii, and Zian Helia. They were escorting V'Saar ambassadors to Haven when the debacle with the Qrxzl's attack on Zeus happened.
A couple of side notes: For a list of species that have been posted so far, see the The People of Valespia page. I'm placing these in alphabetical order so I won't unintentionally place importance on any specie. I will leave off information on the species that will spoil future books. My standard sheet has the same categories for all species. So there will be blank categories just because that species didn't need them.
Enjoy!
Species: Feteine
Planet: Sidonia
Other races on the
planet:
Planetary Terrain: Rocky, Jungles
Capitol: Amandid
Country:
Patron Ryo Pardeep: n/a
Description: Those who are
humanoid are between 5'5" to 7". Aluminum based blood. Some of the
newer models that mix biomatter with tech have two blood types.
They have bio-tech newborns (with wetware)
that they guard fiercely. These newborns can procreate with others like them. One
is chosen to be on the Cypress Council of Neighn.
History: The Feteine were created by the
Terren companies for labor replacement. They were originally used for war, but
the expense of replacing damaged robots caused the Terrens to repurpose them
for labor and mining scouts. They were sent on long term space trips to other
planets searching for resources the Terrens could use.
On one such venture the Feteine met the
Qrxzl who recognized their sentience and helped to free them of the Terren's
enslavement. Each Feteine was given a small Qrxzl which allowed the Feteine
to organize a mass
exodus by quantum leaping, meeting up at a common location.
In the short time they have been freed,
they have evolved, devising a way to procreate. These younger versions are biomatter
mixed with tech, born in artificial wombs. Of these children, most appear
non-mechanical and work off planet as bounty hunters, gathering information for
their people. Most do not know they are Feteine, only that they were raised by
them.
Their planet is close to the Milky Way but
also near the Grid. Aware of the Valespian Pact, they chose the planet because
the Grid was weak in that area. They wanted to join the Pact and thought that
protecting an area was a show of good faith.
They cannot be corrupted by the V'Saar
venom. There is a question if the bio-mechanical models would be susceptible.
The planet of Sidonia is the first
habitable planet outside the official boundaries of the Milky Way. It is
uniquely situated between the Milky Way, Andromeda, and Anthro (Triangulum)
Galaxies.
Leaping: Each Feteine can leap where they
want to go. They all have a drive, navigation system, and the stored energy to
make jumps. One of their secrets is, they can also take over starships and
direct it in a leap for shorter jumps. Some of the bio-mechanicals don't have
drives, the energy of the Qrxzls causing mutations or death in biomatter.
From Striker: "The
majority of the Feteine were constructed to mine planets uninhabitable by
humans. Those present were from the human's limited stock of what appeared to
be soldiers. It was rumored the Terrens considered the loss of human life
cheaper than the destruction of robotic hardware. Therefore, the robot soldiers
had been repurposed as
scouts to travel to planets, assess the mining potential, and report back.
These scouts were the first to encounter
the Qrxzl, who befriended them and then later encouraged them to break away
from the Terrens. The Qrxzl recognized the Feteine as slaves and offered to
help them escape. Each Feteine was given a small Qrxzl crystal, and one morning
the entire Feteine population, regardless of where they were in the universe,
disappeared. No one knew where the Feteine made their homeworld now, although
there was much speculation. Currently, the only way to contact them was through
the Qrxzl. Alpha planned to approach the galactic imperials about the necessity, or lack
thereof, of the Qrxzl as middlemen for the Feteine."
