The War and the Meant Empire: Definitions

Blues:

This is a specific category of a human.

Categorism:

A new form of racism, but instead of the bias being based on the variation of race it's based on a larger number of human variations. These variations in the human structure are based on effects on the human form from the planet or location of birth. This includes all aspects, gravity, sun type, planet variations. This also includes those who are born and live in space. Over time a number of certain types of human beings have developed.

Greens:

This is a specific category of a human.

Golds:

This is a specific category of a human.

Pales:

This is a specific category of a human. These types of human beings are related to those who have lived in deep space for a many generations. As a result they have developed an ashy white skin due to little or no sun light. Due to the lower then normal levels of gravity in these stations they have become very tall and thin. They were known as the great space station builders. In the old days before Hyperspace flight were very important stops in the early days of human trade. As a result they become the great bankers of the galaxy and have stabilized the galactic economy for many generations. Due to a number of factors they have been ridiculed by other categories of humans in a derogatory manner. They are stereotypically thought of being rich, stuck up, oddball snobs. Some of their unusual rituals, religion and practices of nudity had only re-enforced this view. As a result they are often referred to by the derogatory slang term of pasty, or pasties.

Hyper Drive:

A technology developed to take advantage of a sub-space dimension called hyperspace discovered around 2200 C.E. With this drive a craft can “Jump” from one point to another making the great distances in normal space seem much smaller.

Hyper jump:

Using hyperspace, a craft or digital signal can be sent from one point in space to another. Once the drives have powered an entry point is created into this dimension. Called a Hyper entry event it is seen as a bright white portal. After entry the craft can no longer be seen in normal space until after it emerges from a Hyper exit event and the ship leaves hyperspace through another white portal.

Hyperspace Channels:

These are frequencies that can be used to transmit communications through Hyperspace.

Hyperspace:

A sub dimension of normal space used to travel great distances in a short period of time. Both physical objects and high energy information streams can travel through this space.

Magnetic beam:

This is a modified electro magnet pulse gun that can be directed at an object. It will draw in objects if it has any metallic composites.

Stouts:

This is a specific category of a human. These types of human beings are related to those who have lived on high gravity worlds. (Like Ino II) As a result of this environment the human developed bodies that resembled short, long armed, hairless gorillas. They are often referred to by the derogatory slang term of apes.
