Human life, the process of millions of years of successive and random mutations giving rise to modern man, a marvel of natural selection. This process occurred as it always did, but this time it didn't happen on Earth. Another place, another time, serendipity would have it that a system perfect for life in every way came into being. The vast jewel of Jalaryias' crowing rings of barren worlds, and two gardens besides. On one of these worlds, a world called Terra, not only man came about, but others too rose from the primordial depths to the heights of intelligence.
On the sister garden of Aldzerri, so too did life rise to those heights, two worlds with many thinking beings in a place where the future held limitless potential. Time passed, the children of these worlds squabbled, not all survived. Yet now another chapter has come about, the dream of traversing the worlds has come true. Moons and asteroids are ripe for harvest and now the species of those two once separate worlds will come to terms as they race towards it, the endless bounty of space.
Explanation
This RP takes place in an alternate world where Humans arose in a system dominated by the large gas giant of Jalaryia and in tandem with several other species. The backstory of this RP is intended to be created by the players as they write the history of their nations and species, how did they fight? Why? The stage is set for any number of situations, and only you can decide what may come about!
Regarding Aliens
Since the scale of the rp is quite small compared to others, we will of course have a limited number of alien species, five to be exact. Two for Terra(since of course we got humans there), and Three for Aldzerri, and since we have a limited number, I would have you make only one species, wouldn't be fair if one player made half the species roster. Once all five species are made, there can be no more. Exceptions of course there being sub-species and perhaps artificial servitor races.

Roughly 0.065% of life within the species is sentient. The ones that are sentient have an estimated IQ of 145 on average. The sentient command non-sentient as extensions of their being. It is akin to finding a finger in the forest and surgically attaching it to your own hand, except you now have the ability to control that finger. Many of these sentients command 45-50 non-sentient counterparts. The sentients are translated to 'Wisemen' and the non-sentients are translated to 'Undermen'. Sentients are identified at birth by a white marking of two gates, similar to the ones on their flag.
The smallest ring has a diameter of 50,000 km. Each ring succeeding has a greater diameter by 50,000 km. The phasing black dot is the full radar-sphere of the station (which is far larger than the actual station). The center point is Terra.
The military is known to use 'atom-scramblers' that rip apart molecules and reconfigure them instantaneously, causing an immense burning sensation. A chemical compound that replenishes itself is shot out of kinetic boosters as so it goes in a straight-line toward the target.
