Fed. Data Bank: The Exodus

In the year 2077, the Solar System was the new frontier for an overcrowded, exhausted, and nearly desperate Earth.

After twenty years of planetary engineering, mankind had settled many colonies across the solar system, mining resources through mega-corporations.

In 2197, a coronal mass-ejection from the run reached Titan and a signal of unknown origin was detected beneath its surface.

Under the moon's jagged, parched and hellish surface: a buried secret that held seemingly infinite promise.

Someone had come and gone before humans set foot on Titan. The moon was criss-crossed with tunnels carved out of the crust 500,000 years ago by a long-vanished high technology society.

The vanished aliens were a source of intense curiosity and hope for the twenty billion inhabitants of Earth.

Wave after wave of explorers descended into the alien tunnels in search of advanced technology that might have been left behind by the so-called "The Tau".

Many technologies are developed using knowledge of the Tau vaults, mankind's efforts focus on a contingency plan to evacuate humanity to a system compatible with human life.

It is discovered that the anomaly of the sun indicate an artificial origin. The government of Earth has thirty years to prepare the evacuation of the population to Olympus Star Cluster, 30,000 light years from our planet.

All ships capable of Tau-warp propulsion have been requisitioned, and all space yards are working to full production.

Extra manpower and materials have already been provided.

Thousands of evacuation barges, Agriculture ships, Fuel and Ore carriers and recreational liners are being prepared...

Weeks before the supernova, the fleet is heading towards a wormhole near a Tau beacon to travel to the other side of the galaxy.

The Fleet arrives at Olympus Star Cluster and begins the colonization of the primary solar system, the federation agrees to name the new system Gaia. A vision of creation and harmony with nature, derived from the ancient Greek Goddess.

Fed. Data Bank: Kronus VII

Hierarchy: VII Generation
Race: Archon
IA: TauMatrix v.7
Age: 150 Cycles
Creator: Arod VI

The seventh generation of the Archons leaders have a matrix based on tegnologia tau that make them formidable opponents.

Kronus VII is the leader of the Thanatos system, belonging to the Archon race, this cybernetic organism exerts its despotic tyranny throughout the system. Has a legion of Archons cyborgs defending the planet, is the leader of convergent experiment.

Harbinger - O3

The harbinger initiative is a secret project to create combat operations with biogenetic improvements and nanotech grids, implants use an alien matrix to bond human DNA with Tau nanotechnology.

The Archon race uses the same improvements for generations by altering its DNA and creating cybernetic organisms that are part of their race.

Only few humans have the right genome to be fused with Tau Nanotech without the side effects of the fusion.

The harbinger initiative reveals that the races of the galaxy have in common the DNA of the Tau race.

Improvements

1. Peak strength and stamina
2. Extremely dense skin and muscle tissue
3. Highly resistant to physical injury
4. Ability to interact with Tau technology
