DEFINITIONS LIST

Class System:
The class system is a tier of occupations assigned after a series to tests and trials to determine which citizen is best suited for which job in a certain class.
The classes are…
Governing and Diplomatic classes
Warrior classes
Explorer classes
Science classes
Worker classes
Many jobs fit into each class and those assigned to these classes can take their pick. Also, each class has the authority to police the other. However, this system does not take into consideration which job a citizen may wish to have. Each planet has their own version of this class system.

FTL: Faster Than Light.
This is the interplanetary travel method used by all the worlds in the galactic council. A cosmic current was discovered just outside of normal space which is theorized to be responsible for the expansion of the universe. By entering this current, one can travel anywhere in the cosmos in a fraction of the time. The opening of these gates can and will open unstable wormholes.


Jump Gates: Massive rings constructed to rip open a door way to the cosmic current then close said doorway. The exact process is classified.

The Canterbury Nebula: This is an artificially created nebula used to block the view of other world’s telescopes and probes to avoid early detection from pre-FTL capable worlds. Of course, other worlds call this nebula by other names.


Living star ship:
This is a massive, gelatinous organism capable of living and traveling through space. Like a hermit crab, it makes a home out of derelict vessels or asteroids. They have a strange symbiotic relationship with the Teranors. They take them where they wish to travel in return for a safe world to spawn. The ships and/or asteroids are adorned with weapons and shields for defense.

Storm Chasers: A fictional government organization, partnering with several nations, that work to maintain the masquerade that aliens are nothing for than a myth.

Great Creators: Digitex mythology. Those who gave the Mechanicks life and sentience before cast out to start a great civilization of their own.


NOTE: This list will grow as the story is written.
