The Cast

The Universe

Space,

Unfathomable in scope and unrelenting in its capability to kill you. It takes generations to reach even the nearest star. Or at least it did before Walter Placeholder pioneered a method for faster than light travel. The Placeholder drive opened the cosmos to mankind and thus began the Great Human Diaspora. Within 200 year man had colonized thousands of planets and encountered dozens of new species. Man’s ability to adapt and evolve to the new conditions of their adopted homes allowed them to dominate stellar exploration. Within 1000 years man had diverged into many different species and humanoids were the dominant form of life in the galaxy. One of the few traits that persisted was an unstoppable urge to buy useless shit to display one’s status to their peers.

It is a time where anything you see or imagine can be replicated with ease; collectors, snobs, and hyper-hipsters will all gladly shell out loads of SpaceBucks (฿) For the genuine article. Bakalorian artifacts, authentic Earthican clothing, and original Apple iBrain® neural implants all fetch a high price on the intergalactic market.
