Humans

Mostly hairless mammalian primates. Their home system, Sol, lies in a bluespace “dead-zone” of sorts that blocks anything from entering or exiting it through bluespace without relay. While leaving Sol extremely well-defended, the dead-zone meant that humanity went unnoticed and left in radio silence until they were able to breach it themselves.

Culture

Humans are well-known for their industrious and explorative (to a fault) nature. Their turbulent history combined with unique isolation from other species has fostered a desire to see “what’s out there.” Human beliefs and behaviour vary greatly, with distinct cultures being developed whenever a group is left isolated for a significant amount of time.

The “culture” shared by most of the humans you will encounter is colloquially called “spacer,” for obvious reasons. Many believe in working with their crews above all, focusing less on external allegiances such as to a specific planet, corporation, or government, although exceptions are relatively common due to the isolation of space.
