Humans

Originating from the now-desolated Sol-1 system, humans have since spread over the entirety of known space, integrating and in some cases dominating the existing cultures. It is fairly rare for any settlement of size not to have a few humans living in it.

Biology
''Endothermic. Endoskeleton. Viviparious. ''

Humans are a fairly robust and reliable race, known for both their short, volatile lives compared to most of the other intelligent species, and for their great genetic adaptability. This has spawned many, many programs based on adapting and improving the human race for profit, with the most successful being the Icon Human 2.0 program.

History
After depleting their home planet's natural resources and becoming dangerously overcrowded, the decision was made to abandon earth and the Sol-1 system entirely via the newly perfected Jump Drive technology, and begin habitation on one of the many life-sustaining planets discovered. With the high majority of the population gone, earth quickly collapsed into an anarchic wasteland.

With earth abandoned, humans proceeded to settle across hundreds upon hundreds of planets. While some chose to integrate with existing galactic species, others decided to restart civilisation from scratch. As a result, humans can be found in the Pyrian Republic, the Holy Final Empire, the Light Collective and the Shield of Kytettee, as well as Wild Space.
