The year is 3508 a.c. There has been a war for decades between humans and another intelligent race called the numahs.
Humanity has scattered all over the universe since Earth was completely poisoned and deemed inhospitable 8 years ago, they live on all the other planets of the solar system and use Mars as their main base.
Numahs are a strange race, looking almost identical to humans with the exception of their highly colorful eyes, they follow their religion to a degree of almost fanaticism from their home base in the Andromeda galaxy, whatever they believe god tells them, be it to wipe out an entire planet, they follow it until it is accomplished, but of course several rebel Numahn factions exist to try to bring sense to all the others.
The main issue with a lot of humans and numanhs is no one knows for sure why the war started in the first place, and no idea why they continue to fight till this day.
Spaceships use their huge gun turrets to fight, and soldiers use special computers to analyze their individual capabilities to better suit them, be it a high caliber machine gun or a katana with nano machines that enable them to have faster reactions to deflect bullets, war has changed a lot.

I take it the main idea is to be human rather than numah or are both available, intriguied about playing a Numah holy-knight, have to think about it though.

One question, Language barrier, I assume that humans and numahs speak different languages, or do they? If they do, it might be worth mentioning if your characters can speak the others language. ^_^

Numahs have extraordinary memory, and in order to keep their language a secret for the war effort, they change it every 3 months and humans are never able to understand them unless the numah speaks the human language.... which i guess It's English hahaha. Humans have tried to keep up using nano machines to translate every known language in the universe (since other races that don't travel through space speak their own language) but numahs always have another language humans can't understand.

I decided to make this list about random things from this universe I made, so this may answer a few questions you might have -Nano machines are present on almost every human and numah, feel free to invent a new use for them : ) -Although cigarettes are still easy to come by, beer is rare in this time, mostly because the plants used to create beer are almost extinct. -Lasers are not used at all, everything from a foot soldier to the most gigantic spaceship in the universe use bullets XD. -Giant robots are called Arks, they were just invented and are still extremely rare, they can only be found on the most important battle fields. -Space ships can cross the solar system from mercury to Pluto in 5 days at max speed, but star ships have gate jumps, which are able to travel extreme distances in a matter of seconds. -A lot of planets exist that harbor life, but both human and numah leave them alone to let them develop their own culture, but crash landings are not unheard of... -Soldiers from the human team are united under the banner UP, which means United Planets, and numahs have NUG, which means Numahs Under God. -The numahs originate from a planet called Threa, their solar system has 6 planets and all have also been colonized. -Some planets harbor dangerous monsters that like to attack humans and numahs alike, these as whole are called Mnauts. -(I know I copied this from Dragon Ball, but I didn't know until it was too late XD) A lot of things, like huge tents housing weapons or vehicles, can be carried in small capsules that can make anything appear with the click of a button. That's all I can think about for the moment, hope it helps and any questions keep asking : D

Kings don't exist either on the human or numah side, but maybe on a planet that has not discovered space travel...
