The Setting:
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y263/GissyR/INSS12-1.jpg
INSS 12 population: 750 humans, 100.000 A.I lives. The Idealist Network Society (INS) is preparing to start the Genesis project, which is the construction of the first human city on Utopia. You (your character) are one of two-hundred and fifty “New Humans” joining society. You are part of a special Heart Project code name Batch AC2. The Heart Project is the 25 year process of creating a “New Human” from the stage of cryopreservation to an INS citizen. The method of producing a superior human is a form of conditioning that requires the individual to be exposed to INS beliefs, knowledge, and ideas to partially submerge their individuality for the good of the Network. Aside from the specialized skills which become their professions, the individual is trained in military and classroom instructions, basic marksmanship with individually-assigned weapons, field maintenance of weapons, hand-to-hand combat (MA), physical fitness training, basic first aid, basic vehicle (land and aerial) training, and basic survival techniques. This conditioning is essential for military function because the world of Utopia requires people to endure stress and perform actions which are simply not present in normal life. The training system is designed to educate the individual to suit the organization, whilst retaining key elements of the individual’s personality. AC2 personnel receive additional training, and physical enhancements to make them stronger and enduring. AC2 personnel are divided according to their chosen professions between the three INS departments.

You are a young human survivor. You have survived the extinction of your people and our world. For the last 25 years you have been educated and trained by artificial inteligent lives (machines) with the tools to rebuild the foundations of IN Society in the strange planet of Utopia, our new land of promise. You were once a frozen embryo in cryopreservation for many years, once removed you were thawed and transfer to an artificial life form –Mother – for assistant hatching. Your new life has just begun.
Your ancestors built the AI robots that nourished and protect you around a technology more advanced than any other found on Utopia. It is up to your generation now to rekindle humanity, to make a civilization without dictatorship or fanaticism. Your parent is Mother (a machine) who nurtured and educated you with the tools to rebuild our civilization.
Governor Smith is our leader; he is our elder, he is the first human to be born from cryopreservation. He is the governor of INSS 12. When he speaks, we listen! At least until you’ve worked your way up in rank, then you can speak to him eye to eye. His right hand is Mother who provides spiritual guidance, and all knowledge regarding our technology and earth history.
We believe in science and engineering, the energy that fills every piece of technology with life and conscience. Since the beginning we are adherence to the teachings of Mother, to our technology we owe, if not our faith, our dependability. She watches over us and protects us. Remember as long as you care, repair, and enhance our technology, you too will advance into a superior human.
We value our freedom, equality, and knowledge. We believe that our force lies in our solidarity and technology, if we can persuade all Utopians to be civilized like us, we will share our technology and make Utopia the perfect world.
The IN Charter:
You must never share our technology with Roliatis or Haliatans. They don’t understand us and we are guarded of their true intentions.
Never breach the Law of the Idealist Network.
Never join with another human with the intentions of reproducing by copulating.
Never leave your duties unfinished for we depend on your ability to complete your work in a timely fashion.
Never take the life of another human or place a human life in danger for your own gain. We are a network and all human life is valued, counted and depended upon for the completion of our work.
Never be tempted to join Roliati religion. They are against our sense of independence.
Never venture down into the caves of Utopia.
IN believes that it is humanity's moral obligation to make other worlds suitable for human life, as a continuation of the history of life transforming the environments around it. Ever since our arrival we have been building the solid foundations for our future civilization.
We must develop our individual strengths and technology, and continue to expand on Utopia successfully.
We must improve our knowledge of the planet, in science and engineering to make better AI’s and enhance the extraction of resources.
We must build a QPM Station on Utopia.
We must establish contact with the network, and search space for other human survivors.
For the moment we remain neutral in our relationship with the Utopian Factions. We have kept our distance and continue to observe them, studying them.
Friendly Tribes: (To be announced)
We do not consider Utopians our enemies nor our friends. Time is our only enemy.
Enemy Tribes: (To be announced)
Predators: Utopia is home to many wild and alien animals, many of them will attack on sight!
We are in need of engineers and scientist to enhance our technology and build our colonies; medics to improve the quality of life and environmentalist to help us understand our new world. You can be a valuable member by joining our ranks and maintaining the vision of IN above all others.
Our people are defended by AI who may come to your aide once you've accepted our vision. The more you act for the good of the Network the more you're noble deeds will be rewarded. The network does not tolerate error, but we understand it is human nature to err. Every human has an equal right, to obtain instruction, to choose their own goals, as long as they don’t violate the Charter of the Idealist Network.
Our Government body orbits space aboard INSS 12, and our first City, Genesis, will be elevated in the Lake Lands. The lakes are by far the most abundant of resources and beautiful place on Utopia and to the keen eye offers every living essence needed for creation.
The principal reason given is the creation of conservationism to support a world suitable for habitation by humans. As we become skilled in the ways of green politics you will learn to tame the wildlife and expand.
The followers of the Goddess of Life call themselves Roliati in their language, words of this language elude any reasonable translation, and their true meaning is apprehensible only to Roliati themselves. Roliatis are convinced they were the first race to come into the world. They believe sublime forces created their wonderful world, and use their supernatural talent (magic) and skillfulness to develop its mystery to the utmost perfection. They unwaveringly believe that, just as every element of the universe has a purpose, every Utopian must be enlightened through Roliati doctrines in order for them to find their true place in society. Roliatis believe unshakably they are an instrument in the hands of the demiurge forces, their Goddess of Life - Evarista. The Roliatis are proud legatees of a vast Empire and have a large fan of acolytes throughout Utopia. Incessantly they improve magical technologies, and are highly cultivated mystics well versed in the art of magic; the Roliatis are both a quixotic and dominant religion. Roliaties live on the surface of the planet, and structure their civilizations in accordance with their innate territorial preference. They’ve built an empire that expands throughout the forest, jungle, and water lands, current leadership is Empress Yvani.
They got their name from an old house of people, whose head warlord founded the underground city Oasis Nest. They were Roliati once, devoted acolytes of the goddess until Halliatan, once a Roliati Minister, promised to endow those who would spend their lives serving him with greater power. According to the Myth their power is also their curse. Thousands of warriors accepted secretly his gift. They could never be the same again, but they acquired enormous strength and the ability to manipulate aberrant magical powers. The new religion turned out to be quite prolific and soon the new cult outnumbered Roliaties. Enraged Roliaties attacked their former kinsmen in order to avoid further contamination and banished them to the dark lands. Haliatans disliked their position as outcast acolytes and declared independence, creating an absolute monarchy, claiming the underground caves and desert region where they rein supreme. Unlike Roliati religion they strived for self gratification and yield blindly to their animal instincts. They embody the very essence of force, but at the same time humanly sage and competent. Current leader is King Mek-Tus.
UTOPIA
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y263/GissyR/utopiaplanet.jpg
Utopia is a captivating planet steep in mystery where anthropomorphized creatures reign supreme. Its rich biodiversity has evolved within the last century, it has multiple ecosystems: scorching deserts, cool mountains, dense woodlands and forests, immaculate lakes and rivers, abundant jungles, and the eerie caves sustaining complex organisms.
The peoples of Utopia are known as Utopians. The natives are intelligent animal creatures. In their human likeness males are big and muscular, their rough features, specially the face witness their animal nature. The females are lean and brawny, usually more limber and their features although smooth bare the same sharp animal features. The hominoids are nonetheless superior mammals. There are four distinctive genuses on Utopia: Felids, Hominidae, Squamatas, and Ursine. (You will learn more about the races once the story begins.)
In their quest to build a culture and civilization, for over three-hundred years the Utopian peoples became subject to sporadic racial warfare which ended with the Great Genocide of the Drakomatas and the separation of the species. Utopian civilization is composed of two opposing factions: Roliati and Haliatan. Their religious deference and conservation have divided the planet for the last three-hundred years. And the mysterious extraterrestrial beings, the humans, now bring a new threat to their world.
Earth no longer processed anthropogenic effects, warming and sea level rise rapidly continued for the last four-centuries, and irreversible greenhouse gas levels destabilized. For years the higher spheres of society understood that in order to survive extinction mankind would need to leave earth and start anew on another human-habitable planet. UnitedTech, the world’s colossal corporation, which controlled 90% of earth’s technology and resources, secretly instigated and financed the Idealist Network (IN) – a conglomeritic of earth’s top specialists in robotics, engineering, science, and military power. The Network immediately starts the construction of the first colossal space station that would become a space colony for earth’s elite society, the Idealist Network Society (INS).
On the eve of the year 2500, 13 of the world’s wealthiest families were secretly removed from earth by military escorts and transported to the new INS space colony – Haven. The first space colony was build to house 700 INS members. As expected, those who were not selected, in a jealous rage, leaked the information to the masses initiating an uprising against UnitedTech; countless lawsuits were brought forth, and the destruction of UnitedTech extraction facilities soon followed, leading to civil wars around the world.
UnitedTech secedes publicly connections to the Idealist Network and folds. The Idealist Network takes control of UnitedTech’s resource extraction facilities and as planed deployed the Autonomous Combat Tactic Unit (AC1). The combat robots were designed to be faster, more lethal than human soldiers, and intended to police and control and intervene warfare. Within days the opposition was conquered.
IN fires millions of human workers and introduces Ilbot – an intelligent labor robot designed to substitute human laborers on earth.
The Network completes its first city, Vida, on the moon and houses the Idealist Network Political (INP) leaders, and establishes itself as a global plutocratic government with total domination of earth’s resources. Population on Vida is 5 thousand humans, 500 thousand artificially intelligent lives.
Dr. Louis Kordova, a young INSE Engineer, invented a new technology – Quantumlight Portal Machines (QPM) – which allowed humans to travel over great distance in light years. This new technology made it easier for INP to expand and build new INS colonies.
By 2621 IN build 11 QPM Stations, each sustaining 5000 INS members, extending a network as far as the planet Mars.
Terraformation of the planet Mars commenced with very poor results.
Time proved IN’s efforts worthless. The INS colonies found themselves witnessing earth’s critical problems, the planet no longer sustain human habitation; the barrier in reaching equilibrium was a result of the large heat capacity of the oceans, and increased intensity of extreme weather events, and change in amount of pattern of precipitation affected agricultural yields, trade routes, glacier retreats, species extinctions, and increases in the ranges of disease vectors, and even the INS colonies were vastly worsening in virtual poverty. Indeed the end of earth and the extinction of humanity seemed inevitable and imminent.
In their rushed effort to continue the continuity of the human species the network used QPM station 11 to jump start a fleet of AI scouting ships, seven Reconnoiter vessels were build, each equipped with top of the line human technology. The INP leaders decided to use old age cryogenic techniques and freeze human embryos instead. These embryos, the last hope for mankind, the new humans of the future, will not grow inside a human body instead are incubated in a machine – A.H.I.R.M. the first Artificial. Human. Intelligent. Robot. Motherboard – a super computer with human likeness, nicknamed Mother, and programmed to thaw the embryos and start their hearts once a habitable planet is found.
Billions and billions of miles away from earth space, Reconnoiter vessel 3, detects an ideal planet able to sustain human life. Operation Utopia is initiated – Mother (A.H.I.R.M.) orders AI pathfinders to gather specimens of the fauna and flora, and begins to study and categorize the planets resources and inhabitants, and executed the deconstruction of Reconnoiter vessel 3 to start the process of transforming the massive ship into INS Station 12.
Operation Heart is initiated: the life sustaining cryogenic robots are activated, and the revitalization of its precious cargo begins. 250 human embryos were revitalized.
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y263/GissyR/CryopreservationAdult-2.jpg The First Generation: After 25 years of renewal, the process of revitalization, the first ‘New Human’ awakens. His name was Ulysses Smith (AKA Governor Smith). Following the instructions left by Vida’s INP leaders, Smith orders the awakening of the men and women who will form the House of Assembly. Smith is elected Governor of INS Station 12 and becomes Admiral of Fleet, with the guidance of the House of Assembly Smith organizes Station 12. John Whites becomes Admiral of the Idealist Network Military (INM) branch. Emily Kordovan becomes Admiral of the Idealist Network Science and Engineering (INSE) branch.
The Second Generation: Ambassador Schreiber established contact with the Roliati Empire, he becomes the first human to walk on Utopia. The Utopian Treaty is created, INS is given the cluster of islands known as the Offsprings Peninsulas to build the first human city (Genesis). In exchange for the Empire’s generosity IN provides medicine and vaccines for a number of illnesses, and introduces a new robot created in the image of the Hominidaes, the Empire’s superior species. Hominibot is highly praised and accepted. Roliatis believe that, just as every element of the universe has a purpose, every Utopian must be enlightened through Roliati doctrines in order for them to find their true place in society; Hominibot embraces the Roliati’s religion and becomes the first robot citizen of the Empire. It gains independence from the network and after 50.000 units were created INP orders the end of its production.
THE IDEALIST NETWORK
The Idealist Network Society (INS) is divided into three prominent branches:
With a lower mass than that of any previous Idealist Network Space Station, the INSS 12 can be seen from the Utopia with the naked eye. The station has a unique environment for research and the testing of the spacecraft systems that are required for missions to Utopia and Luna1. The INSS 12 is operated by Reconnoiter 3 survivors, and has been continuously staffed since 3899, meaning the INSS 12 planned has maintained an uninterrupted human presence in space for the past 75 years. The INSS 12 has a continuous population increase of 250 humans per 25 years rate. Maximum populace is 2000 humans.
Restricted Area: cryopreservation facilities, assistant hatching bots, AHIRMS supercomputer. (no humans are allowed in this area)
INM – Departments; including military equipment, home station of AC1, and numerous docks and training facilities.
INSE – Robotics Labs
INSE – Science & Medical Labs
INSE – Engineering Labs (includes two docks)
INSE – Officers Living Facilities
INSE – Commanding Offices and Living Facilities
INM – Commanding Offices and Living Facilities
Entertainment & Leisure Facilities
INP – Government Offices: First House, House of Assembly, Government Luxury Apartments, Luxury Parks and Leisure Facilities.
The Political Branch (INP): INP are the leaders of the human colonies; there to ensure that the INS commands are properly carried out, and place INS interest above all else. They believe there are other ships roaming in space, perhaps already established in other planets. Their goal is to collect the resources humans need to survive at all cost, to establish a permanent colony on Utopia, to become the dominant race of Utopia, and continue to send probes into space in search of other survivors from earth. Current leader is Governor Smith.
The Science and Engineering Departments (INSE): INSE is the combined power of two separate departments – Science and Engineering – equipped with the finest technology from earth. They build, maintain, and control IN technology, e.g. the Travel Portal Machines (QPM), Artificial Intelligent Life (AI), military equipment, human DNA development, and research and testing. Head of INSE is Admiral Kordovan.
Idealist Network Military branch (INM): Home of the Autonomous Combat Tactic Unit (AC1) -The finest robotic military force mankind ever spawn, there to escort, protect, and surveillance the Idealist Network Society (INS). If anything should happen to any ranking member of the political branch, or the visual goal of the network isn’t followed, they will step forward and take control of all IN operations (AC1 is control by A.H.I.R.M (Mother)). Head of INM is Admiral Whites.
The Doctor of Engineer is responsible for the assessment needs of the INS Departments e.g., machine design, machine research, and machine development, production, testing, and maintenance; also responsible for the design and construction and also the destruction of offensive, defensive and logistical structures for warfare. These include INS space stations, the QPM’s, the City of Genesis, robotics, land and aerial vehicles, and weapons.
The field is a diverse one, covering areas from biotechnology, and nanotechnology to the manipulation of organic materials to reach the demands of food production. Biotechnology combines disciplines like genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, embryology, and cell biology, which are in turn linked to practical disciplines like chemical engineering, information technology, and robotics. Nanotechnology is used to produce a wide variety of useful chemicals such as pharmaceuticals, useful polymers, and create many new materials and devices with wide-ranging applications, such as in medicine, electronics, cosmetics and energy production.
The Medic specializes in the basic sciences such as anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pharmacology, pathology, various areas of clinical medicine such as internal medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, psychiatry and surgery. Also obtains extensive knowledge in biomedical engineering, which consists of research and development, covering an array of fields: bioinformatics, medical imaging, image processing, physiological signal processing, biomechanics, biomaterials and bioengineering, systems analysis, 3-D modeling, etc.
The field is a combination of an ecologist and environmental engineer. Primarily conducts hazardous- waste management studies, advice on treatment and containment, and develop regulations to prevent mishaps. Specializing in the application of science and engineering principles to improve the environment (air, water, and land resources), and in the fields of animal ecology, and plant ecology, as well as examines patterns such as distinction in species richness, equitability, productivity, and food web structure; also examines processes such as predator-prey population dynamics, succession, and community assembly.
Their tasks involve combat and non-combat operations, including direct hostile engagements and support operations. INS pilots undergo specialized training; often with weapons in aerial warfare and dogfighting (close range aerial combat). Pilots must be in excellent health in order to handle the strange bodily effects caused by aerial warfare. Although a strong heart and stamina are required, fighter pilots also require having strong muscle tissue along the extremities and abdomen. A pilot will flex his legs and torso in order to keep the blood from draining out of the head. This is known as the "grunt." Excellent vision is mandatory for the best pilot.
Someone who has the most status and influence over society and internal relations. His power is maintained by hereditary elite, from a caste, class, family (dynasty or even some individuals). They work to control the executive, legislative and judicial aspects of government, the armed forces, and most of the natural resources. They establish private corporations and through their proportional wealth exert strong influence on governments. (e.g. Governor Smith) The House of Assembly is composed of Aristocrats.
An egg-shape case used for renewing the body through stemcell and nanotech therapeutic treatment; the pod acts as a repair system for the body, replenishing specialized cells, such as blood, skin, intestinal tissues, organs, muscle, bone, etc.
Thin Mylar-Nanofiber coated jumpsuit, lined with synthetic thermal insulation. Between the insulation and the reflective coating is a layer of puncture resistant SPECTRA fiber mesh, interwoven with a thin blue gelatin substance that both loosened the SPECTRA fiber to a wearable level of stiffness and hardened on any major kinetic impact. The legs, wrist, and neck openings are lined with special seals, for boots, gloves, and helmets. Across the back of the uniform is a thin strip of metal that made a V shape downs from the neck, all the way to the seal connecting both halves of the suit, shaped to latch into a full vacuum usage suit. The landsuit is generic and all INS personnel wear one. The color of the landsuit dictates the wearer’s profession: black-engineer, yellow-chemical scientist, blue-medical officer, brown-holistic environmentalist, green-pilot, and white-aristocrat. Two color suits indicate two professions.
A grey, oval, small and flat piece of technology with a multitude of functions: it contains your personal data; from medical records to finances, and can be use as a verbal communicator with the ear-peace attachment. The PDA can access Mother’s database at any time, and the multitouch-touchpad feature is used to enter data and reports. It can be attach to your land-uniforms, to any computer terminal to download and upload information as well as make transactions and purchases. Computer terminals are everywhere including, labs, vehicles and your living-quarters.
A small ear-peace use for communication.
Every AC2 Officer is equipped with an internal ID-chip, primarily inserted in the left hand. The ID-chip is your locator and grants you access to restricted areas, INSE technology, INM equipment, the use of special labs, and robotics. The ID-chip is also a special key that activates the equipment you use, like your PDA, your weapons, vehicles etc. The ID-chip ensures that the equipment you activate can only be control by you.
All weapons can be mounted on vehicles, attached to AC1 robots, or hand-carried by AC2 personnel. They can also be modified at your discretion as long as they maintain their basic design. (Vehicles are assigned by GM)
Broadly defined, directed-energy weapons can be categorized according to the type of energy used (sound, radio, light, particles, plasma, etc) and the intended effects on the target (physical damage, interference with senses and guidance, disorientation, disabling machinery, incapacitating people/robots, etc).
Mechanical device designed to project a long controllable stream of ignited flammable liquid or energy.
A biological weapon may be intended to kill, incapacitate, or seriously impede on an individual as well as entire cities or places (or livestock) by causing disease and infection, through the use of pathogens (bacteria, viruses, or other disease-causing agents).

Utopia is a captivating planet steep in mystery where anthropomorphized creatures reign supreme. Its rich biodiversity has evolved within the last century, it has multiple ecosystems: scorching deserts, cool mountains, dense woodlands and forests, immaculate lakes and rivers, abundant jungles, and the eerie caves sustaining complex organisms.
The peoples of Utopia are known as Utopians. The natives are intelligent animal creatures. In their human likeness males are big and muscular, their rough features, specially the face witness their animal nature. The females are lean and brawny, usually more limber and their features although smooth bare the same sharp animal features. The hominoids are nonetheless superior mammals. There are four distinctive genuses on Utopia: Felids, Hominidae, Squamatas, and Ursine. (You will learn more about the races once the story begins.)

The Idealist Network takes control of UnitedTech’s resource extraction facilities and as planed deployed the Autonomous Combat Tactic Unit (AC1). The combat robots were designed to be faster, more lethal than human soldiers, and intended to police and control and intervene warfare. Within days the opposition was conquered.
IN fires millions of human workers and introduces Ilbot – an intelligent labor robot designed to substitute human laborers on earth.
The Network completes its first city, Vida, on the moon and houses the Idealist Network Political (INP) leaders, and establishes itself as a global plutocratic government with total domination of earth’s resources. Population on Vida is 5 thousand humans, 500 thousand artificially intelligent lives.
Dr. Louis Kordova, a young INSE Engineer, invented a new technology – Quantumlight Portal Machines (QPM) – which allowed humans to travel over great distance in light years. This new technology made it easier for INP to expand and build new INS colonies.
By 2621 IN build 11 QPM Stations, each sustaining 5000 INS members, extending a network as far as the planet Mars.
Terraformation of the planet Mars commenced with very poor results.
Time proved IN’s efforts worthless. The INS colonies found themselves witnessing earth’s critical problems, the planet no longer sustain human habitation; the barrier in reaching equilibrium was a result of the large heat capacity of the oceans, and increased intensity of extreme weather events, and change in amount of pattern of precipitation affected agricultural yields, trade routes, glacier retreats, species extinctions, and increases in the ranges of disease vectors, and even the INS colonies were vastly worsening in virtual poverty. Indeed the end of earth and the extinction of humanity seemed inevitable and imminent.
In their rushed effort to continue the continuity of the human species the network used QPM station 11 to jump start a fleet of AI scouting ships, seven Reconnoiter vessels were build, each equipped with top of the line human technology. The INP leaders decided to use old age cryogenic techniques and freeze human embryos instead. These embryos, the last hope for mankind, the new humans of the future, will not grow inside a human body instead are incubated in a machine – A.H.I.R.M. the first Artificial. Human. Intelligent. Robot. Motherboard – a super computer with human likeness, nicknamed Mother, and programmed to thaw the embryos and start their hearts once a habitable planet is found.
Billions and billions of miles away from earth space, Reconnoiter vessel 3, detects an ideal planet able to sustain human life. Operation Utopia is initiated – Mother (A.H.I.R.M.) orders AI pathfinders to gather specimens of the fauna and flora, and begins to study and categorize the planets resources and inhabitants, and executed the deconstruction of Reconnoiter vessel 3 to start the process of transforming the massive ship into INS Station 12.
Operation Heart is initiated: the life sustaining cryogenic robots are activated, and the revitalization of its precious cargo begins. 250 human embryos were revitalized.
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y263/GissyR/CryopreservationAdult-2.jpg The First Generation: After 25 years of renewal, the process of revitalization, the first ‘New Human’ awakens. His name was Ulysses Smith (AKA Governor Smith). Following the instructions left by Vida’s INP leaders, Smith orders the awakening of the men and women who will form the House of Assembly. Smith is elected Governor of INS Station 12 and becomes Admiral of Fleet, with the guidance of the House of Assembly Smith organizes Station 12. John Whites becomes Admiral of the Idealist Network Military (INM) branch. Emily Kordovan becomes Admiral of the Idealist Network Science and Engineering (INSE) branch.
The Second Generation: Ambassador Schreiber established contact with the Roliati Empire, he becomes the first human to walk on Utopia. The Utopian Treaty is created, INS is given the cluster of islands known as the Offsprings Peninsulas to build the first human city (Genesis). In exchange for the Empire’s generosity IN provides medicine and vaccines for a number of illnesses, and introduces a new robot created in the image of the Hominidaes, the Empire’s superior species. Hominibot is highly praised and accepted. Roliatis believe that, just as every element of the universe has a purpose, every Utopian must be enlightened through Roliati doctrines in order for them to find their true place in society; Hominibot embraces the Roliati’s religion and becomes the first robot citizen of the Empire. It gains independence from the network and after 50.000 units were created INP orders the end of its production.
THE IDEALIST NETWORK
The Idealist Network Society (INS) is divided into three prominent branches:
With a lower mass than that of any previous Idealist Network Space Station, the INSS 12 can be seen from the Utopia with the naked eye. The station has a unique environment for research and the testing of the spacecraft systems that are required for missions to Utopia and Luna1. The INSS 12 is operated by Reconnoiter 3 survivors, and has been continuously staffed since 3899, meaning the INSS 12 planned has maintained an uninterrupted human presence in space for the past 75 years. The INSS 12 has a continuous population increase of 250 humans per 25 years rate. Maximum populace is 2000 humans.
Restricted Area: cryopreservation facilities, assistant hatching bots, AHIRMS supercomputer. (no humans are allowed in this area)
INM – Departments; including military equipment, home station of AC1, and numerous docks and training facilities.
INSE – Robotics Labs
INSE – Science & Medical Labs
INSE – Engineering Labs (includes two docks)
INSE – Officers Living Facilities
INSE – Commanding Offices and Living Facilities
INM – Commanding Offices and Living Facilities
Entertainment & Leisure Facilities
INP – Government Offices: First House, House of Assembly, Government Luxury Apartments, Luxury Parks and Leisure Facilities.
The Political Branch (INP): INP are the leaders of the human colonies; there to ensure that the INS commands are properly carried out, and place INS interest above all else. They believe there are other ships roaming in space, perhaps already established in other planets. Their goal is to collect the resources humans need to survive at all cost, to establish a permanent colony on Utopia, to become the dominant race of Utopia, and continue to send probes into space in search of other survivors from earth. Current leader is Governor Smith.
The Science and Engineering Departments (INSE): INSE is the combined power of two separate departments – Science and Engineering – equipped with the finest technology from earth. They build, maintain, and control IN technology, e.g. the Travel Portal Machines (QPM), Artificial Intelligent Life (AI), military equipment, human DNA development, and research and testing. Head of INSE is Admiral Kordovan.
Idealist Network Military branch (INM): Home of the Autonomous Combat Tactic Unit (AC1) -The finest robotic military force mankind ever spawn, there to escort, protect, and surveillance the Idealist Network Society (INS). If anything should happen to any ranking member of the political branch, or the visual goal of the network isn’t followed, they will step forward and take control of all IN operations (AC1 is control by A.H.I.R.M (Mother)). Head of INM is Admiral Whites.
The Doctor of Engineer is responsible for the assessment needs of the INS Departments e.g., machine design, machine research, and machine development, production, testing, and maintenance; also responsible for the design and construction and also the destruction of offensive, defensive and logistical structures for warfare. These include INS space stations, the QPM’s, the City of Genesis, robotics, land and aerial vehicles, and weapons.
The field is a diverse one, covering areas from biotechnology, and nanotechnology to the manipulation of organic materials to reach the demands of food production. Biotechnology combines disciplines like genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, embryology, and cell biology, which are in turn linked to practical disciplines like chemical engineering, information technology, and robotics. Nanotechnology is used to produce a wide variety of useful chemicals such as pharmaceuticals, useful polymers, and create many new materials and devices with wide-ranging applications, such as in medicine, electronics, cosmetics and energy production.
The Medic specializes in the basic sciences such as anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pharmacology, pathology, various areas of clinical medicine such as internal medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, psychiatry and surgery. Also obtains extensive knowledge in biomedical engineering, which consists of research and development, covering an array of fields: bioinformatics, medical imaging, image processing, physiological signal processing, biomechanics, biomaterials and bioengineering, systems analysis, 3-D modeling, etc.
The field is a combination of an ecologist and environmental engineer. Primarily conducts hazardous- waste management studies, advice on treatment and containment, and develop regulations to prevent mishaps. Specializing in the application of science and engineering principles to improve the environment (air, water, and land resources), and in the fields of animal ecology, and plant ecology, as well as examines patterns such as distinction in species richness, equitability, productivity, and food web structure; also examines processes such as predator-prey population dynamics, succession, and community assembly.
Their tasks involve combat and non-combat operations, including direct hostile engagements and support operations. INS pilots undergo specialized training; often with weapons in aerial warfare and dogfighting (close range aerial combat). Pilots must be in excellent health in order to handle the strange bodily effects caused by aerial warfare. Although a strong heart and stamina are required, fighter pilots also require having strong muscle tissue along the extremities and abdomen. A pilot will flex his legs and torso in order to keep the blood from draining out of the head. This is known as the "grunt." Excellent vision is mandatory for the best pilot.
Someone who has the most status and influence over society and internal relations. His power is maintained by hereditary elite, from a caste, class, family (dynasty or even some individuals). They work to control the executive, legislative and judicial aspects of government, the armed forces, and most of the natural resources. They establish private corporations and through their proportional wealth exert strong influence on governments. (e.g. Governor Smith) The House of Assembly is composed of Aristocrats.

Thin Mylar-Nanofiber coated jumpsuit, lined with synthetic thermal insulation. Between the insulation and the reflective coating is a layer of puncture resistant SPECTRA fiber mesh, interwoven with a thin blue gelatin substance that both loosened the SPECTRA fiber to a wearable level of stiffness and hardened on any major kinetic impact. The legs, wrist, and neck openings are lined with special seals, for boots, gloves, and helmets. Across the back of the uniform is a thin strip of metal that made a V shape downs from the neck, all the way to the seal connecting both halves of the suit, shaped to latch into a full vacuum usage suit. The landsuit is generic and all INS personnel wear one. The color of the landsuit dictates the wearer’s profession: black-engineer, yellow-chemical scientist, blue-medical officer, brown-holistic environmentalist, green-pilot, and white-aristocrat. Two color suits indicate two professions.

The PDA can access Mother’s database at any time, and the multitouch-touchpad feature is used to enter data and reports. It can be attach to your land-uniforms, to any computer terminal to download and upload information as well as make transactions and purchases. Computer terminals are everywhere including, labs, vehicles and your living-quarters.
A small ear-peace use for communication.
Every AC2 Officer is equipped with an internal ID-chip, primarily inserted in the left hand. The ID-chip is your locator and grants you access to restricted areas, INSE technology, INM equipment, the use of special labs, and robotics. The ID-chip is also a special key that activates the equipment you use, like your PDA, your weapons, vehicles etc. The ID-chip ensures that the equipment you activate can only be control by you.
All weapons can be mounted on vehicles, attached to AC1 robots, or hand-carried by AC2 personnel. They can also be modified at your discretion as long as they maintain their basic design. (Vehicles are assigned by GM)
Broadly defined, directed-energy weapons can be categorized according to the type of energy used (sound, radio, light, particles, plasma, etc) and the intended effects on the target (physical damage, interference with senses and guidance, disorientation, disabling machinery, incapacitating people/robots, etc).
Mechanical device designed to project a long controllable stream of ignited flammable liquid or energy.
A biological weapon may be intended to kill, incapacitate, or seriously impede on an individual as well as entire cities or places (or livestock) by causing disease and infection, through the use of pathogens (bacteria, viruses, or other disease-causing agents).
