Interest Check
In the year 2023 humans celebrated as SETI discovered a signal which was unmistakably not human, yet intelligent. It took them months to discover the meaning behind the signal, but when they did, the Earth was struck with fear. It simply said "Surrender".
A week after we deciphered the message a fleet of alien craft appeared in the system. They communicated in Earth languages this time, but their message was the same; Surrender. We fought back, but even our strongest weapons were unable to do anything to their ships. They landed and, though we were able to slow them down, the Reptilian Vs'Ks'Thi troops managed to capture the planet, save a few rebel groups, in eight days. During their assault most of them used abilities that could be considered supernatural or paranormal.
They then informed us of our fate. We were now a slave world of the Vs'Ks'Thi Empire, and the people of this world will be used by them or their trade partners the Chigani (essentially the Roswell aliens). Any who challenge them will die.
Not long after the invasion was over, however, other ships full of members of other alien races arrived. They were from the Freedom Alliance, a group of former slave worlds that had banded together to protect each other and to prevent other worlds from becoming enslaved. Earth had been captured due to bad intelligence. The Alliance believed they were going to capture a different world. The Alliance would, however, aid the people of Earth in the planet's liberation.
That was one hundred years ago. Many humans have since been freed, and many more have had their paranormal abilities unlocked, either through synthetic drugs or the Doma fruit, a plum-like fruit which grows on Thalla and contains a chemical which slowly unlocks powers. We fly aboard the alliance ship "Washington" a privately owned ship owned by Captian Harris, a Human. We are allowed to function within Vs'Ks'Thi and Chigani space only as a freighter, and should we show any hostile moves, if we are caught aiding rebellious slaves, or use forbidden technology, such as a cloaking device, we will be destroyed.
We intend to break all three rules.
