− | All I wanted in life was to be left alone; don't we all. So just my luck that I'd eventually become an alien abductee. Now I'm never alone. Any minute, when I'm least expecting it. And the worst part is NO ONE believes you. Well, almost no one. So I've devoted my life to providing all you disbelievers out there with proof. Proof that there are extraterrestrial biological entities right now, as we speak, visiting our planet in alien ships for purposes of a rather troubling agenda known only to certain members of the government, the FBI and certain high-ranking members of the military-industrial community who have recovered some of these very craft. Not that they would admit to it publicly, of course. Nor would they admit that they have salvaged some of this alien technology and are using it in military applications. No, that would be un-American. And they wont admit it until someone con- confronts them with irrefutable, undeniable proof. Someone like me. And, uh, I should probably mention that I do this at great risk to my own health and safety, but hey, when everyday's just another day your gonna get kidnapped by a bunch of little grey dudes from outer space what's a few CIA spooks to worry about? - ''Max Fenig, The X-Files''

Seit der Russe Yuri Gargarin am zwölften April 1962 als erster Erdenmensch aus der Erdatmoshäre geschossen wurde, um unseren Planetem zu umkteisen, sind inzwivhen über 500 Memschen, losgelöst von der Erdanziehung, dirch die uns hisher unbekannte Welt der Sterne geflogen. Was also könnte in 100 Jahren sein ? In 1000 Jahren ? Und die Welt, das Weltall ist eine Ewigkeit alt. Was also spricht dagegen, daß eine derart phantastische technische Entwicklung, durch Menschenwesen nicht eine Ewigkeit vor unserer Erdentechnik auf eimem anderen Stern, der heite längst verglüht ist, ebenso vor sich gegangen seien mag. Die Zeichen und Beweise dafür sind umstritten, aber undenkbar ist es nicht, daß vor abertausenden von Jahren fremde Raumfahrzeuge, silbernen Feuervögeln gleich, vom Himmelm auf die Erde stürtzten, sodass unsere tierhaften Urahnen sie für das Erscheinen ihrer Götter, der Götter aus dem All hielten." - ''Erich von Daenicken, Die Götter aus dem All''

− | ===Galactic History===
| |
− |
| |
− | '''The Signal'''
| |
− | Eons ago a sentient life evolved among the stars.
| |
− |
| |
− | Some species of extraterrestrial lifeforms watched the stars, wondering what was out there. Maybe there even would be someone out there watching and wondering like them. As their culture evolved the began exploring teir own state of existence. At some point they became capable of transmission and detection of signals beyond the boundaries or their world and noticed a strange signal from far away. They began to analyze the signal and generations after the original discovery of the signal they finally were able to translate it. The alien message contained incredible complex multilayered informations about some kind of technology. Again generations of researchers had to interpret the information to build a device with unknown function. The device turned out to be some kind of Ship. Capable of travel among the stars, crossing vast distances within relatively short spans of time.
| |
− |
| |
− | '''The Great Incident'''
| |
− | The four Species all share a common event in their histories. At some point the constant use of Hyperspacial technology broke down the natural laws of their realms culminating in a gigantic catastrophy. The great Hyperspace Incidents ripped open the Abyss within the aliens realms of existence and their civilizations were invaded by horrible creatures.
| |
− |
| |
− | The Ancients theoretisize that some of them are older than others and suspect that the 'younger' Ancients could be the ones responsible for the Incident. No one knows for sure. The Great Incident created some kind of fallout that erased the memory of the entire species, which made a distinction between 'older' and 'younger' ancient impossible.
| |
− |
| |
− | The Great incident cut the free evolutionary path of the Brood. Before the Incident their Hive Fleets travelled the Distant Reaches in the search of the the secrets of evolution.
| |
− |
| |
− | The Xenoid claim to come from different Homeworlds, that where eradicated during the Great Incident. Only the few of their species that travelled trough Hyperspace survived the cataclysm.
| |
− |
| |
− | '''Exodus'''
| |
− | Finaly every of the four species faced extrinction. Independently their greatest thinkers all devised the same solution: to send out great ships with the last survivors of their once great civilisations in search of a safe place where they could begin anew. All of them finally followed the strange signal their people once had recieved from far away.
| |
− |
| |
− | The Exodus distorted the historical views of all four species. Lots of recorded historical and cultural data could not be transmitted, was purposely erased, destroyed by accident, or was lost by other circumstances. When the aliens arrived in the solar system most of their original historical and cultural identity was gone or had lost its meaning in some way.
| |
− |
| |
− | '''The Precursors'''
| |
− | Some key concepts of galactic evolution and the solutions to certain problems connected to them seem to be universal. Every alien species discovered these concepts independently, but they were are all led down similar pathes when they started exploring them.
| |
− |
| |
− | The four alien species are not the first ones, that travelled among the Stars. When the first ancients reached the Solar Realm thousands of years ago, they discovered strange Relics within the Belt of asteroids that marked its outer border. The most astonishing one was a gigantic space station, that nearly had the size of a moon, seemingly operational for it bradcasted signals troughout solar Hyperspace in a language unknown to the Ancients, but completely devoid of any form of spiritual or biological life.
| |
− |
| |
− | The researchers found out that the Solar system was once inhabited by the Precursors, sheer immortal beings imbued with vast god-like power. They themselves once were created by a being they called the god-machine and in their own images had created races of lesser beings to serve and entertain them. Finaly they where eradicated by their unfaithful firstborn children eons ago. As the elder gods died, they cursed all of their children, not only the Firstborn which had led the uprising against them.
| |
− |
| |
− | Originators of the Signal. Maybe buildesrs of some kind of hyperspatial infrastructure. Left Reilcs within the solar system hinting at their former existence. Where are they now ? Are they responsible for the evolution of sentient Life ? Did they originaly invent Hyperspace travel and left the technology for the other species to find ?
| |
− |
| |
− | '''The Last Bastion'''
| |
− | The Solar system is some kind of Anomaly within Hyperspace. Something in the dimensional clustering of our realm is different to the aliens original realms, that has prevented total anihilation by abyssal forces. Sure, rifts into the Abyss also exist in the solar system, but they are to few and only remain open for very short spans of time.

− | Sidebox: Magehunters
| |
− | From the Alien perspective Human Psionics have developed not only incrompehensible but also very dangerous aspects. Sometimes when human psionics call on their powers they open rifts into the Abyss. Although Humans do understand that this is a dangerous act they do not understnad the final consequences of these acts. The intangible wall, that separates reality and the abyss from one another is worn out a little more every time an act like this is commited. Aliens understand the horrible implications of this kind of human behaviourt, therefor some aliens don't hesitate to take drastical measures in preventing human psionics from outright destroying the last bastion by their ignorance or incapability.

− | ===Hyperspace===
| |
− |
| |
− | Stellar Hyperspace is separated from Interstellar Hyperspace by the Abyss. Stellar Hyperspace ends in Planetary Hyperspace which in turn is separated from the planets material reflection by a dimensional threshold, on earth called the Gauntlet.
| |
− | Not only earth has a Planetary Hyperspace but all stellar Bodies of our solar system, which in turn are inhabited by alien forms of life, (known to the occultists of human society as spirits of the planetary courts). These fully ephemeral beings are paradigmaticaly compatible enough to interact with the aliens of the four species, although seldom in a peaceful manner.

| |
− | * '''Hyperdrives'''
| |
− | This very advanced technology confers the ability to move between the various realms connected by Hyperspace. Normally a Hyperdrive takes the Form of an incredibly complex piece of machinery, biological-, or astral pattern around which UFO's are constructed. Where the Grey or Xenoids create the cores of their artificial starships, the Brood grows gigantic, symbiotic hulks around Hyperjump cores. The Ancients have eon-old fleets of ephemeral ships created from strange materials and enegeric states. There is a legend that a few, very powerful Ancients even found a way to Hyperjump without some kind of external protection. A UFO or Alien creature with the ability to travel trough Hyperspace moves between realms by 'jumping' from place to place. Jumping means the UFO dematerializes from its point of origin, travels trough a subspacial realm for a short time and then materializes at its destination.
| |
− |
| |
− | Hyperjump Cost: Jumps between two directly connected realms (adjacent planetary realms, or connected Astral realms, etc) without a dimensional treshold (Gauntlet, Astral Treshold) between them costs 1 Essece and requires 15 min of travel time if the character using the Numen has already been to that realm, or is in posession of accurate Hyperspace maps. Travel across a dimensional threshold increases the Essence cost by 1 per traveler.
| |
− |
| |
− | * '''Hyperjump Calculations'''
| |
− | Hyperjumps also must be calculetd properly, before the Hyperdrive can be initiated.
| |
− | :Dice Pool: Power + Influence Travel, or Int + Science + Influence Travel modified by the Gauntlet Strenght of the destination, successes also depending on the type of destination
| |
− | :Action: extended, every roll takes 30 minutes. (1 success for empty interplanetary space, 5 for wild regions on a planetary surface, 10 for populated areas on a planetary surface and 15 successes for a densely populated area).
| |
− | :Roll Results:
| |
− | :Dramatic Failure: The calculations are a total desaster and the Jump crosses the Abyss. The UFO is jumped to an entirely different location than intended and an Abyssal manifestation accurs at the moment of the UFO's reintegration.
| |
− | :Failure: The calculations are far off the intended coordinates. The Jump takes the UFO to another location of similar specifications as intended, but maybe thousands of miles away from the inteded destination.
| |
− | :Success: the jump is made to the intended location.
| |
− | :Exceptional Success: the jump is made to the intended location in only two-thirds of the normal hyperjump time.

| |
− |
| |
− | The first human experiments with a Hyperdrive retroengineered from captured alient technology went horribly wrong.
| |
− |
| |
− | The human scientist, inexperieced with hyperspace calculations, programmed the wrong coordinates intontheir Hyperdrive and the Ship was warped directly into the Abyss.

| |
− |
| |
− | (Zum transfer in den Exodus-Schiffen mussten die ursprünglich materiellen Körper der aliens in so 'ne art Soulgems, sogenannten Cortices (sing. Cortex) 'digitalisiert' werden; Ancient Cortex: schimmernder ball aus energie; Brood Cortex: Biologische Masse, Wurmartiger Parasit, Cerebraler Knoten, Alien-Ei; Grey Cortex: Chip, Chromglänzendes Implantat; Xenoid Coretex: kleiner Kristall, 'versteinerter' Ammonit, fossiler Abdruck)
| |
− |
| |
− | -----
| |
− | Sidebox: Don't they really have Bodies ?
| |
− |
| |
− | Lets face it: to have a fully corporeal material body sucks if you want to move at relativistict speeds. Therefore most Alien Species have shed their truely material forms, or maybe never developed ones in the first place, to be capable of movement trough Hyperspace.
| |
− | Alien bodies are partly ephemeral and can be interacted with as normal material entities, as long as they remain within Hyperspace. In the material realm of our world however, the body of an alien being is not quite as solid as the body of a human being. Unless the alien fully materializes with the help of a Numen or Alien Artifact, or wears an Amalgamated, fully corporeal body, their own semi-ephemeral body is subject to essence bleed (1 Essence per Rank and hour), as long as they remain in the material realm.
| |
− | Aliens may mechanicaly work similar to spirits, but most of them are of more substance than the conceptual beings dwelling in the Shadow reflection of our world. Brood, Grey and Xenoids count as Cryptids, while Ancients are beings completely consistent of a sentient field of energy.
| |
− | When stepping into the material world trough a Verge (either a 'natural' one or one generated by an UFO) an alien directly and physicaly enters our world instead of entering the incorporeal reflection of earth known as Twilight. As mentioned above the alien is subject to essence bleed, as long its semi-ephemeral body is exposed directly to the conditions of our material world. If an alien in its un-amalgamated form is reduced to zero Corpus levels while being materialized, it dies, leaving the corporeal parts of its semi-ephemeral body as a physical corpse (that could be found, filmed, obducted or more...).
| |
− | -----
| |
− |
| |
− | * Ancients
| |
− | The Ancients evolved beyond the need to a corporeal form into sentient fields of pure primal energy, not yet measurable by human scientific means. While human sciences can provide littke definitive answers, human occultists have some theoeries that may explain the Ancients state of existence. They are beings composed of a spiritual energy called Mana and contain their energetic integrity by pure force of will.
| |
− |
| |
− | * Brood
| |
− | ...While all brood can produce and infect hosts with unimprinted Larvae, only Hive Mothers are able to imprint shards of the Hive Soul into their Larvae to create offspring with the capability to grow to full maturity and sentience.
| |
− |
| |
− | * Grey
| |
− | The humanoid bodies of the Grey quite closely resemble human bodies in form and function. Grey have arms, legs, a head with sensory organs and a brain, as well as a torso filled with internal organs (although not all which humans may have and not necesarrily in the exact same spot). The difference is, that the Grey's bodies were never individuals born from biological mothers, but are mass-produced clones from one of a few generic templates, grown by hypertechnological means.

| |
− | * Essence Recuperation:
| |
− | Aliens need Essence resonant with their original realm of origin, which may be a hard to come by on earth. On board of a UFO or within a Station an alien of any species may regain one Essence per day.
| |
− | All Aliens may extract additional Essence out of abducted mortals, or harvest essence generated by cults tailored to the specific essential needs of the alien entity. On very rare occasions an alien might find a Locus that generates an appropriate resonance of essence, but very few of those exist in the mortal realm and then only in remote and primordial locales.

| |
− | ===Amalgams===
| |
− |
| |
− | Why do Aliens wear human guises on earth ? The answers are quite simple: First and foremost, aliens who want to remain on earth for more then a couple of hours need a fully corporeal anchor for their semi-ephemeral forms to prevent essence-bleeding and finaly starvation. The second reason for amalgamating their alien forms with human host bodies, is almost as important as the first. Within a human guise the alien minimizes the risk of being uncovered by potentialy dangerous humans, or human society in general, which still is ignorant to being regularily visited by beings from outer space, while simultaneously maximizing the potential of immediate, undiscovered observation of human behaviour and neccessary interaction with the human species.
| |
− | The four alien species all have different attitudes toward human life resulting in different approaches when amalgamating hosts. Altough the specific processes differ in detail from species to species they share some common components. First there always are two seperate entities. The alien and the host. Then the alien's mind, or even its entire ephemeral body is inserted into the host by a procedure unique to each alien species, overriding or even eradicating any eventual original conciousness. When the alien mind is fused with its new host body it gains access to all of the hosts abilities and most of its residua memories, though aliens often lack the necessary earthly framework to fully comprehend more than a few of them, if they matter to the alien at all. The specific amalgamation procedures also all leave some kind of mark on the host body where the material part of the alien symbiote was inserted.
| |
− |
| |
− | * Most ancients refrain from taking mortal human beings as amalgams for philosophical reasons. Their species recognizes the human soul as something akin to them and most do not wish to directly harm other sentient beings at least potentially capable of ascension. Also the Ancients are inherently able to take on a projected human form, or even a multitude of other projected earthly and unearthly guises, which simplifies interacting in other ways for them. Only the most rutheless and power-hungry, as well as some of the few Invaders among the Ancients learn to claim human bodies. Some Progressionists and Pragmatists have discovered the posibilities the Grey's clones or the Xenoids artificial, cybernetic human bodies, both without souls of their own, provide. Both types of Amalgam have recently become subjects of trade between the Ancients and both of the other species. The Amalgamation Mark of the Ancients resembles an complex arcane sigil burned into the skin of the Amalgam body at the moment of insertion.
| |
− |
| |
− | * The Amalgamation Mark of the Brood is an obvius scar o the host's body, where the contracted alien larvae entered it.
| |
− |
| |
− | * The Amalgamation Mark of the Grey takes the form of a scar somewhere near the hosts spine or on its head, where it was implanted with a grey personality nodule
| |
− |
| |
− | * The Amalgamation Mark of the Xenoids always has some small part that sticks out of the host's body and reminds of a small crystal token, often disguised as some kind of jewelry.

With their already very high developed technology Grey scientist perfected the techniques of cloning replacement bodies and invented systems for the recording and transfer of an individuals personality structure into said bodies.
| |
− | | |
− | The Grey harvest genetic material (human female ovaries and male semen) on earth, that is processed and modified as raw material to grow clones. Also crucial to the production of cloned replacement bodies is a metaphysical substance called Azoth. With the help of that substance clone bodies can be grown within a matter of days and also in excelent quality.
| |

− | Aozth was always a rare substance to the Grey, without natural occurances on their homeworld, so they set out to search the vast Hyperspace for sources of the direly needed substance.

While most Xenoids prefer highly evolved artifical construt bodies as human guises, some like to experience the 'real deal' and ride real human bodies, if only for short times. Xenoids often feel a little awkward within their Amalgam bodies, that are capable of strange concepts like speech or direct physical interaction. They often move or behave clumsy, or talk in strange ways if unacustomed to.

| |
− |
| |
− | * ''Alien Abduction''
| |
− | Why do Aliens come to Earth ? What do they want in our material world ? The answer is rather complex and depends on both the aliens species and its affiliation with one of the Convents as well as multitude of other factors. For some Aliens the material Realm of earth represents an irresistable curiosity, a trait they share with most intrasolar- and earthbound spirits. It contains a myriad of phenomena to be studied, used or abused, among which human beings are ceartainly the most interesting to all of the four alien species.
| |
− | The Abyssals revel in their hatred for all material beings, yet they need human guises to interact in the material realm to orchestrate its downfall and human souls to feed on. They also enjoy the sensations of torturing or corrupting humans for whatever twisted reason they may have.
| |
− | The Ancients belive that some of their kind evolved from humanoid creatures into energetic-spiritual beings eons ago and therefore take interest in humanity. They initiated the formation of the Coservationist Council to give humanity a chance to evole and eventually ascend, but also to study, measure and test their evolutionar potential for their own means.
| |
− | Earth represents a very rich source of genetic material for the Brood alltogether. They also need material hosts to procreate. Humans have proven an ideal host body and are therefore highly regarded and requested by Hives of all kinds.
| |
− | Some Grey, not unlike the Ancients, belive that humanity is some kind of atavistic version of their own species, or that they share some kind of common ancestor. Since the Grey only reproduce trough Cloning their genetic code has degenerated. They try to infuse their species with live trough the use of human genetic material. Grey Scientist experiment with humans for quite some time now and have accumulated vast genetic databases from which they are able to clone human bodies that become Amalgamated, or sometimes reinserted into human society without a directly controlling alien conciousness to perform preprogramed tasks.
| |
− | The Agenda towards Earth and humanity for the Xenoids is almost as diverse as their many Subspecies. Some study humans out of scientific curiosity, others hunt and abduct humans for profit, sport or for their own special means, still others buy or even collect humans as potential Amalgams, slaves, or just as prestigios display subjects for their menageries.
| |
− | From the perspective of the Abducted this is most often a horrible experience regardless of which species of Alien is actually responsible. The Subject is suddenly kidnaped from his ordinary life by a spaceship, a strange light wich could have been a teleporter- or tractor-beam, or directly by a strange alien creature. Then he gets probed, tested, tortured, or worse even eaten by the alien. Those that survive this disturbing experience and are returned are most often entirely changed people. Some react frightened and never tell of their abduction, from fear of being ridiculed or appearing insane, but retain a form of deep seated paranoia. Others tell of their experience, some even organize in groups of like-minded individuals. Some start to behave irrationaly after their abduction, sometimes to the point that they cannot be recognized even by their closest family or friends.
| |
− | -----
| |
− | '''Lost Time'''
| |
− | The reports of abductees agree on little facts but one common phenomenon is the loss of time. As the human body is brought into Hyperspace, where time has not the same meaning as in the material realm, it does not age normaly and is often under some form of alien mind-control or unconcious. Chronometers dont function properly either and stop while in Hyperspace.
| |
− | -----
| |
− |
| |
− | * ''The Mystery of Origin''
| |
− | All four Alien Species agree that clues that reveal some of the secrets of their own existence may be hidden on earth. (see primitive Alien Organisms)
| |
− | Each species even has some heretics among them that brought up ridiculous theories, that the individual species may have originated from the primitive material realm of earth.
| |
− |
| |
− | Some Ancients theoretisize that they once also where corporeal entities that ascended into a state of pure energy. When the Ancients heard the Mages stories of Atlantis, a few of them thought it possible they could have been those Atlanteans that ascended before or during the great cataclysm of the Incident, whis in itsself shares a lot of ele,ents with the story of the first great human civilizations downfall.
| |
− |
| |
− | Some Grey scientists can imagine that earth may be their lost home planet the Grey left millions of human years ago to travel the vast reaches of Hyperspace
| |
− |
| |
− | The Brood and Xenoid may also have originated on earth during the pre-human aeras as concurring products of evolution.
| |
− |
| |
− | Some earth occultists theroetisize about the seemingly non-existent spirits of the planets beyond saturn, the ongoings in the asteroid belt and the similarities between Helions and the few encountered Ancients.
| |
− |
| |
− | ''Alien Relics''
| |
− | Alien Relics that point towards the mysteries of Origin have been found in the arctic circle, in the middle of deserts or jungles, or hidden deep underwater in unknown reaches.
| |
− | Some Alien Relics may even be encountered in secret bases hidden insde the asteroid belt or on the outer planets, which are mysteriously devoid of indigenous spiritual life.
| |
− |
| |
− | * ''Alien Invasion''
| |
− | Homeworld Defense;
| |
− | Motherships
| |
− |
| |
− | * ''Secret Wars''
| |
− | Alien vs. Alien, Alien vs. Spirt, Alien vs. Human (Stargate, X-Files).
| |
− | Most often a variant of Alien Invasion, but with a much more covered approach
| |
− |
| |
− | * ''The Great Hyperspace Wars''
| |
− | The four Alien Species have a long history of infights and whole inter-species wars to look upon. The Ancients and the Abyssals have been in a state of constant, though quite cold, warfare against each other since the Great Incident. Hives of the Brood have fought both Grey and Xenoid Motherships to capture host bodies and genetic material of the other species and do so still every now and then, but these singular incidents never culminated into a fullscale Hyperspace War, at least not until now. When portions of the Grey and Xenoid Fleets encountered each other for the first time, they completely misunderpreted each others signals which started a Hyperspace War that lastet for several generations of both species until an enduring peace could be negotiated with the help of ancient mediators.

The mycelium grows wihin the lungs of the infected host body, where it leaves dusty remains of its metabolization of gases and portions of the hosts tissue and erupts after a period of X days to spred new spores. right before that it tries to ensures that its host is near other organisms to infect.

| |
− |
| |
− | * To the Abyssals a non-supernatural human being represents nothing more than food wrapped in quite practical packaging. After the Abyssal has consumed the soul of a mortal being it may fuse itsself with the remaining lifeless husk to reanimate it. The amalgamation of an Abyssal Intruder with a human corpse has become known under the sobriquet of "Revenant", labled by the human inability to distinguish beings from beyond their dimensional threshold.
| |
− | The Amalgamation Mark of the Abyssals is the lightly obvious lifelessness of its Revenant Amalgam
