Human remnants RPG thread continuing. Here's some basic background.

Four thousand humans escaped the destruction of Earth in an 'Ark', a massive ship containing vehicles, resources, and the sum of human knowledge to accompany them to a nitrogen-oxygen planet thirty light years away. After more than a hundred thousand years of cryogenic sleep, the humans have woken up on this strange planet.

So far they have formed relations with the indigenous virmiems, are at war with a race called the aurigni, and been more than a little bit inconvenienced (intentionally or not, none can say) by massive energy-based life forms called the procella. Right now the warfront is quiet, we are building up our strength and we assume the aurignis are building up theirs... however, we have also been making our first attempts at communication with them.

After our last prolonged conversation, the communications experts and supercomputers managed to decipher some of the aurigni language. Most of what they said was extremely violent abuse, but a few remarks stand out: 'You are brave', 'You have surprised us', 'We misjudged.' Nonetheless, there was nothing that suggested they wanted peace. We seem to have merely gained some respect as an enemy.

With the help of the virmeims, our supersoldiers have been born. Full-grown, eight feet tall, extremely strong and fast, with heightened senses and reflexes, they are physically perfect. Mentally they are still infants, our soldiers are now training them. Also, they are sterile, as per our request.

Wanting to do more research on the procellas, we have once again gone to the virmeims for aid. This time they asked for something in return, specifically the schematics to our railguns, but they promise to provide us with vehicles that can travel through the energy storms and take scientific readings.
