Welcome to Thursday's Pact Days! Today, we have the Terren.
They are talked about by those under the Valespian Pact and the worst of their history is known, giving a picture to others in the broadest of strokes. Are all humans apathetic to everything/one not of their species?
Enjoy!
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.
Species: Terren

The Terren Corner of the Milky Way is
governed by four corporations allied un the Earth-Sun Alliance. Their sectors
are comprised of colonized planets, moons, terraformed worlds, and some
conquered planets.
Humans work for the companies and in
return are rationed food and housing based on the type of jobs performed. The
exception would be those planets that raise the food. These places are
considered backwater, but they have better housing and food.
Desperate for better food, Terrens
trade/barter for seeds and will grow plants in any available space they can.
Land is valuable so hanging gardens and rooftop atriums are plentiful in the
lower ranking parts of the cities.
The Terrens have been quarantined to their
galaxy unless they acquire a license to leave. Must have very specific travel
plans and are only allowed on certain flight paths. Those who do travel in
space are usually employed by one of the companies.
There are other companies than the big
four, but the don't have a say in what the Terrens do as a whole.
The Twenty Year War almost bankrupted the
big four. They are required to pay restitution to the GyrFalconi for 400 cycles
(a very long time). If the companies made war or destroyed sentient life on a
planet, the galactic imperials would take over Terren space in the Milky Way
and dismantle the companies.
There are places the Terrens aren't
allowed to travel.
The Alliance is short for the Earth-Sun
Alliance.
Qing-Nian Tech (Chinese, Russian
territories)
Baldassare Operations (European,
African, and Scandinavian territories)
Onocona Engineering (Originally
the Native American Casinos, now covering the North, Central, and South Americas)
Democles Mining (Continent of South Africa and Antartica)
Employees are the companies customers;
Elite Earth Families, reconstituted foods, consumable stores, entertainment,
constructions, mining, farming, sciences.
History:
When the ancients approached the humans about
donating genetic material so they could be a part of the Valespian Pact, they
were a young race on the cusp of designing a space program. The Terrens
attempted to confiscate the ships and properties of the Ancients. When the
Ancients easily took back what had been stolen, the human leaders offered up
their shunned ones as the genetic material in recompense. These people were
accepted by the Ancient and later because the Fal'Amoric specie. The humans
were found to be deceptive, dishonest, and greedy. The Terrens signed the
Valespian Pact, but the ones who were offered up to represent the humans
evolved.
