[hider=The Chosen] [center] [color=00aeef]Nation Name: The Chosen of Ashevelen[/color]: [color=00aeef]Government Form[/color]: [sub]Theocracy[/sub] [color=00aeef]Demographics[/color]: [sub] The Enhanced Humans The Enhanced are those that after years of genetic improvements became more than human. Stronger, faster, immune to most types of toxins, almost ageless and with the extra ability of being able to survive in space without a suit for a long period of time. Mostly all of the Enhanced look like the average human but taller (~2 metres) and slender forms. The exceptions start with the richest citizens or soldiers where their forms will be improved further. Some will have claws, finns, gills, acid blood or different other features. Rejects Humans that didn't respond well to the genetic modifications which everyone was subjected to. Most of them are hideous creatures, barely resembling humans anymore. They’ve kept their human minds but are seen as less than human by most of the Chosen. Most barely resemble humans with added limbs, changed skull structure, bone structure or deformed faces. The unlucky ones will be cancer ridden creatures that die off on their own. [/sub] [color=00aeef]Population[/color]: [sub]2 Billion Enhanced Humans and 3 billion Rejected[/sub] --- [sub][img]https://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/dragonage/images/2/23/Inquisition_heraldry_DA2.png/revision/latest?cb=20120925192538[/img][/sub] --- [/center] [color=39b54a]Planet Name and Description[/color]: [sub] RADX-001 - A planet with a toxic atmosphere to most life forms. RADX is filled with dangerous carnivorous creatures that are capable of eating through steel with ease. Most of the planet is covered in jungles which contain poisonous plants. There is an ocean that covers one side of planet but the water can dissolve metals.[/sub] [color=39b54a]History[/color]: [sub] Year 1 Pre-Enhancement- Arrival - Thousands died from air/food-poisoning, animal attacks, faulty rad-suits and the many other dangers of RADX-001. Year 2 Month 4 PE - First settlement away from the ship is built and named Resilience. Year 2 Month 10 PE - All communications with Resilience are lost, no survivors found. Year 3 PE - Doctor Ashevelen starts her research on human Enhancement Year 5 PE - Doctor Ashevelen recruits volunteers for the human Enhancement program Year 7 PE - Martial Law is declared Year 10 PE - Humanity is getting closer to extincion once more. The population is going down fast. Year 10 Month 3 - Doctor Ashevelen releases the first prototypes of Enhanced humans. Year 10 Month 10 - The Enhanced rebuild Resilience. Year 20 - Doctor Ashevelen continues to improve her formula. Year 23 PE - Doctor Ashevelen takes control of the government with the help of her Enhanced and forces everyone to submit to the program. Year 1 AE - A new era dawns over humanity. Creator Ashevelen realises her mistake in making everyone submit to the program. Reproduction becomes impossible for the Enhanced. Other options need to be researched. Year 2 AE - Cloning becomes the only way for Enhanced humans to multiply. Year 3 AE - Gene-Labs are being built in every city, allowing gene-randomization in clones. Effectively creating new humans based on current genes. Year 10 AE - Creator Ashevelen clones herself before finally dying and manages to pass on all of her knowledge to the clone. Year 50 AE - The formula gets tweaked once more. Stronger than the original prototypes and with the ability to reproduce. The Rejects appear. Half-human Half-Monsters. They are quickly enslaved and used as workers. Year 51 AE - The human nation is rebranded as The Chosen of Ashevelen. Year 100 AE - RADX-001 is for the first time since landing, fully colonised. Year 101 AE - Creator Ashevelen becomes known as The God-Queen and becomes idolised as a God between Enhanced. Her body is constantly cloned and improved. In the same year, churches start to appear all around RADX-001. Year 210 AE - The God-Queen releases a new formula that manages to fix the genetic mistakes in some of the Rejected. Year 220 AE - The Chosen build a space-elevator and colonise the moon, RADX-002, and release all the Rejected on it. Given freedom for the first time in their existence, they continue to serve the God-Queen in the hopes that one day, she'll make another formula that will be able to fix them. Year 243 AE - Cloning technology advances to the point where almost any given material can be cloned. Year 260 AE - The Chosen formula is tweaked once more, giving them the ability to survive space conditions without a suit for a long period of time. Year 286 AE - The God-Queen develops a side-serum using the native creatures of RADX-001. The serum gives the ability to change parts of the Enhanced bodies into claws/natural armour, acidic blood or different abilities based on the animal used. It is given only to the most loyal and becomes a signifier of wealth and status. Year 290 AE - The Ascended become the right hand of the God-Queen. Enhanced humans that rule over small portions of the population. Considered the greatest honour and a sign that one is closer to the Goddess. [/sub] [color=39b54a]Culture and Society[/color]: [sub] The Chosen are living by the will of the God-Queen. A society that's built on the whims of Ashevelen, the God-Queen. Most Enhanced serve in the Church which controls every part of society. Depending on the area of the Church they choose to serve in, they can be traders, soldiers, artisans, poets, censors or for those that prove themselves to be smarter, more disciplined and pios than their peers, they can work in the Gene-Labs where they strive to improve the Chosen serum or others of its kind. Those that are not part of the Church are the ones that the Church deemed heathens for their sins. Bandits, thieves, philosophers or simply said pariahs. The art, the music and movies are all centred around Ashevelen's ascension and early life before apotheosis. As such, many references to Old Earth can be found pretty much everywhere albeit with slight changes when the full truth would need a bit of embellishment. The official language of the Chosen is a combination of Romanian, Spanish and Latin, dubbed Rotinish by the Chosen, as those were the languages which Ashevelen spoke fluently on Earth, while the “Holy Texts”, the Bible of the Chosen is written in old Earth’s English. [/sub] [center] [/center] [color=f7941d]Governance and Politics[/color]: [sub]The God-Queen leaves all but the most important decisions to the "Fist of the Goddess". A group of 5 Chosen, which serve as High Hierarchs in the Church Of The Chosen. Each controls one or more parts of society. The Fist of the Goddess are the Chosen with the most enhancements, the pillars of the Chosen society. They're handpicked by the God-Queen and whenever she feels like one doesn't fit anymore with her long-term plans, another one is chosen. The person doesn't have to be part of the Church and it can be anyone, Rejected or Chosen as long as the God-Queen approves them. Cities are ruled independently by Hierarchs of the Church and depending on what arm of it, the Hierarch serves, cities might look very different. Architectures, workers, jobs, pretty much everything will be different looking. . [/sub] [color=f7941d]Technology Overview[/color]: [sub]Most technology is similar to the one they've arrived on the planet in the first place with the major changes in a few areas: 1. The Chosen are masters of genetic advancement. No injuries are permanent, illnesses incurable or old age to worry about. 2. Cloning tech has evolved to the point where any basic material can be cloned as much as it is needed, human cloning is considered experimental at best and only Ashevelen was cloned once before the aging process was slowed down via the Chosen serum. 3. Bio-Metals - Instead of using complex metals to build, the Chosen are using a combination of biomatter and simple metals to build, combined with a formula that enhances their strength tenfold. Allowing this new bio-metal to withstand great temperatures, weight, stress etc. [/sub] [color=f7941d]Military Overview[/color]: [sub]The Chosen are made from the age of 16 to join the army for a minimum service of 4 years. In those years Church officials watch with interest the development of the soldiers. Those that are found worthy will be made to join the militant department of the Church as Clerics, spreading the will of the God-Queen. In case of dissidents, the Chosen can easily mobilise the Rejects to squash them and if the Rejected aren’t up for the task, specialised Clerics with enhancements suitable for the job are sent in to take care of the problem. Clerics are given more training and their bodies are improved further giving them different abilities depending on where in the Church they serve. In case of space battles, the Chosen Armada can be mobilised which is focused on rapid deployment of [url=https://i.pinimg.com/originals/b2/dc/36/b2dc36faee62ff6498aba9ab77740eec.jpg] Infiltrator-Class[/url] spaceships, via the [url=https://wallup.net/starcraft-military-sci-fi-futuristic-rts-strategy-warrior-spaceship-6/]Carrier-Class[/url] spaceships capable of moving at very fast speed in order to approach the enemy, then, using drills in the legs of the ship, they’ll drill holes inside the hull and release the Chosen/Rejected inside to either disable the enemy ship or take control of it. If the Infiltrator-Class ships cannot be used by the Carriers, they themselves are equipped with light to medium weaponry.
