Sweet :D<br/><br/>So is that in addition to the implied 'core world' faction, or no?<br/><br/>They definitely don't have to be. Perhaps the core worlds are relatively insular and don't actually cooperate very well. So each individual world has supremacy within their own system, but doesn't really have any direct influence outside of it.<br/><br/>So basically, the core worlds all met up with each other and created the ICTA and the space patrol to keep things fair between them, but otherwise didn't cooperate. They were still able to bully around individual space habitats and newer colonies, so each of those groups banded together into the CLI and the Free Planets League(browncoats?) to keep things fair. It's possible the core worlds leaned on the ICTA to try and shut that down, but that would be when the ICTA established that they were there to serve *everyone* not just the core worlds, and essentially became the sector spanning independent entity it is now.<br/><br/>Of course, there would still be plenty of tension between the ICTA and the CLI and FPL, since the ICTA would be preventing them from turning the tables on the core worlds and bullying them back.<br/><br/>At some point, they all make contact with the Wrackenroon Matriarchy and maybe have a brief space war that ends in a truce. Though they still don't get along with each other, the Matriarchy because they believe that all other races are destined to be their chattel, and everyone else because of... well, the same thing from the other side, everyone feels that maintaining peace is the best option for now. The Matriarchy likes the peace because it allows them to infiltrate the rest of the sector with spies and 'renegade' pirates, while the rest of the sector hopes to influence the Matriarchy through trade and culture.<br/><br/>Among all that, TESLA, presumably a private venture, is running around getting up to their own business.<br/><br/><br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I suspect there will be quite a few all-girl orgies going on around here even without the PCs being involved.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>That is the plan.

These two developed<em>huge</em>crushes on Fio independently of one another, which Fio was all too happy to take advantage of in the largest scandal of her career. After so many threesomes, they were into each-other as much as they were into Fio, and with their own careers in the space patrol more or less dead on arrival, they practically begged her to take them along when she went private.<br/><br/>Glossary:<br/>Qrood - Goat/Sheeple<br/>Kott - Canine people<br/>Tythian - Cat people<br/>*As always, all names are up for discussion :3
