~Humans~

Humans, easily the most adaptable species known to date. They appear somewhat similar to the Apex, albeit with far less hair on their bodies. Humanity has had a long and troubled history, not unlike the other races, and it is believed that they are actually quite a harmless race in comparison to others. Before the creation of the FTL drive, and humanity had not entered the galactic theatre, they were a war-torn race, fighting over resources on their home planet. Now, they are far more peaceful, more exploration and technologically-driven.

The human race is relatively simple in biological structure, and very easy to alter and change. They are easily the most adaptable to both environmental changes and also to biologically-altering treatments, such as gene therapy or gene splicing. The human race’s averages, however are not super impressive when compared to others species.

Male humans stand, on average, about 5 foot 8 inches (172.72 cm), while females stand at about 5 foot 4 inches (162.56 cm). This has been known to fluctuate wildly, with some humans standing from 2 feet tall, up to 8 feet in height. While some cases of this do lead to health problems, some people, even up to 8 feet in height can live a full, healthy life with current medical treatments.

Humans have massive potential when it comes to body and genetic modification, and for some core glitterworlds, it has become commonplace for humans to undergo procedures to manipulate their bodies. Some have even gone as far to add extra body parts to themselves. If this is done in gene therapy, there is the chance of it being passed on to their children. These are ALWAYS recessive genes.

Humans also have the capability to easily and quickly adapt to cybernetics being made for them. They have been using them for over 1000 years, so it’s be quite obvious for that.

~History~

Humanity has had a very varied history, much like many other races, however, in recent times, it has become rather tragic.

Before the discovery of FTL travel, human history was riddled with conflict over their finite amount of resources in their home planet. Their colonisation of Mars in 2100 helped this slightly, but not enough to stop wars. After their discovery from the Hylotl, they quickly grew to have a large role in the galactic stage, quickly growing and colonising many planets in their area of the galaxy.

In their expansion, two major groups grew into prominence: the Terrene Protectorate, and the Universal Space Corporate Military (U.S.C.M). These two groups have created their own cultures and peoples.

After the destruction of Earth in 3380 by the Ruin, humanity has been spread far across the galaxy. Billions of lives were lost on that day, along with the vast majority of the Terrene protectorate, which had gathered at their headquarters for a very large event. This catastrophe had also seen the rise of the Occasus Cult, which now stands strong in the background of the galaxy as a terrorist faction. They are incredibly xenophobic, and wish to wipe all races but humanity from the face of the universe. Their original plan was to use the ruin, but this very quickly failed to go ahead.

Despite their hardships, humanity stands strong, and will do for many more years to come.
