Official Name: The Acruani Collective
Demonym: Acruani
Government Type: Meritocracy
Leader: Archene d'Night, Keeper of the Database & The Database (de facto)
Galaxy: Andromeda, Triangulum, Small and Large Magellanic Clouds
Territory:
-Triangulum: Systems spread haphazardly throughout. No clear territory.
-Andromeda: Systems sparsely spread through the galaxy, only truly holding territory at outer 7-8 o'clock (south-west, lower-left/left) of Andromeda due to Loroi and Human presence and higher concentration of systems
-Magellanic Clouds: Systems thinly and sparsely spread out, mostly through the outer edges. No clear territory.
Number of Systems: A total of 700 million systems.
-Triangulum: 250 million systems.
-Andromeda: 150 million systems and 250 million of those systems being part of the Humans in Andromeda and 50 million being part of the Loroi Empire
-Magellanic Clouds: 50 million systems
Note on Acruani Systems: Acruani systems other than decades old ones, only have a number of space stations, a well-converted planet for Acruani use, and a partial Dyson sphere built around. This means that most of the systems in the Magellanic Clouds and Andromeda - and a considerable number of systems in Triangulum - are systems with no more than colonized moon if anything of the kind along with the Acruani ships and few Acruani space stations that may populate it. Fully 'colonized' systems with several moons (due to Acruani preferring low gravity planets to save energy) only amount to an average of 20% of Acruani systems, giving Acruani a total of 90M properly colonized systems in total.
Influence Rank: 5
Capital World: Acruan Prime of the Acruan Prime System
Population by Race: Uncountable Acruani (due to the nature of the Race), 375 quadrillion Loroi, 4 quintillion Humans and a inconsiderable number of miscellaneous races.
Other relevant notes: The Human population of the Acruani has been set to have an event which will make most of them to leave the Acruani Collective soon within the RP. The Loroi population faces an uncertain future which may lead to partial separation from the Collective.
Technology Rank: 9.4
FTL Travel: Acruani Jump Drives - They use the relative position of their target and their current position to execute the calculations necessary for a jump. In between Acruani systems and outbound jumps from Acruani system, this method is assisted by the Database which leads to near nil calculation times and reduced energy expense. When used in between galaxies, this FTL method has considerable cooldown periods, even when in between Acruani systems.
Technological Development Focus: Acruani have a considerable focus on the energy generation and management area though their technologies are very well spread beyond this area.
Specially due to a number of technological appropriations, they have access to extremely efficient Dyson spheres, bubbles and discs to supply their systems energy. The ability to make gravity wells, Beldarix armors (regenerative metal highly resistant to radiation and directed light) and Hyperion Cannons (shield piercing lasers and armor cleaving lasers with considerable charging and calibrating time). And beyond any other technologies, they have the Acruani Cubes themselves, those are incredibly advanced quantum computers that come with a number of add-ons to be capable of communicating with each other and maintaining themselves.
Culture: Acruani follow the Prime Directive which dictates that a member of the Collective must do their best for the Collective at any given time. They sincerely never have anything against this, that is literally programmed in the core of their being.
Loroi have a rich, varied culture revolving around their light and dark monarchs though due to recent Acruani supervision the power of the nobility over the masses has decreased considerably as the view of the commoner Loroi on the Acruani is incredibly good.
Humans have varied ways of life and view though they live in a true democracy for the most part within the Collective. Their views on the Acruani range from positive to negative, but has been considered mostly neutral.
Government: The Acruani Collective is governed by the Database, which assigns an appropriate Authority Rank to any given member or entity with any relation to the Acruani.
In case of the Acruani, directives are given by the Database and higher ranked Acruani to lower ranked ones, while all have their liberties in regards to methods or even what they wish to do.
Organics are mostly self-governing with Acruani assistance. The Humans in Andromeda being a democracy and the Loroi Empire being a monarchy.
Military: The Acruani Collective lacks a true military, but Acruani Hive Ships and High Ships are normally equipped with moderate to heavy weaponry. Their numbers go 500 million together. There is no differentiation between civilian and military Directives among Acruani.
The military of the Humans of Andromeda is completely independent and has freedom to act without notifynig the Acruani.
Loroi military numbers to 12.5 million capital ships. Though they are limited by the Acruani, they have full right to act in self-defense of Loroi and Acruani territories.
History: The Acruani has been a race that collected data from a number of systems while expanding and avoid contact with organics. That changed once they, along with the Keltaken Imperium and the Dothvalian Confederacy, formed the Intergalactic Imperative Alliance.
They became the AIs used by the Keltaken in many parts of their society and assisted the Confederacy in technological development wherever allowed. In this time, they made contact with many organics and even some synthetics through the galaxies even as they methodical means of expansion continued. Due to the First Intergalactic War, the Loroi Empire, part of the the former Federated Colonies, chose to join the Acruani. Due to the Second Intergalactic War, it was necessary to annex the Humans in Andromeda to ensure that they could escape genocide. Though there have been some complications in regards to the integration of organics into the Collective, the Acruani have done their best to accommodate their necessities and values.
Before the Second Great War against the Invaders, there was to be a vote among the Humans of Andromeda to decide whether they would become an independent nation, a part of the Federated Colonies or remain a part of the Acruani Collective. The voting, however, was postponed due to the splitting of the Colonies and more than a single state claiming to be its successor.
From the end of the SGW to the present, the Acruani have remained as the Keltaken favored AIs present in the ships of their various factions while also assuming a more important role in the Confederate society as they began to aid in running their factories and other aspects of their society.
Currently, they are reviewing organic integration plans as well as managing the plans for the next vote for the Humans of Andromeda, to see whether the systems will remain a part of the Collective or not.
Goals and Hooks:
-Restoration of the Travel Network
-Acquisition of more data
-Creation of friendly relations with the diverse nations of the universe
-Proper integration of organics into the Acruani Collective.
Misc. Notes: Any given being in the Acruani Collective has an Authority Rank from 1 to 9. The lowest ranks are populated by Acruani of ships' subsystems followed by civilian organics, military organics, Acruani ships, organic and Acruani planetary leaders, Acruani and organic system leaders, organic and Acruani race representatives of a given organic race, Acruani Galactic representatives and True Acruani. Those Authority ranks basically show how much one has achieved in the Acruani eyes, in Acruani case, those rarely fluctuate but in case of organics they may go up or down.
It is common knowledge however that Acruani society has been having some problems to efficiently integrate organics in mass. This has a tendency to lead to a certain discontent through the upper echelons of both Loroi and Human society.
Acruani Hive Queen and High Ships not only work as the backbone of military formations, but also work are factories for Acruani ships and devices, relay stations and space stations for the Acruani.
Race Name: Acruani
Home world: Acruan of the ACR-4UN System of the Triangulum Galaxy
Lifespan: Indeterminate, but continuous maintenance is required of any given Core.
Reproduction: Core-creation through the Database, consciousness splicing between Acruani advanced enough or the 'Ascension' (aka. digitalization of the consciousness) of an organic.
Physiology: The true body of any given Acruani is its Acruani Core. This core may vary in size considerably from 1 cubic centimeter to .25 cubic kilometers. The compounds that compose the Core are classified, but it is known that they derive from simple molecules, organic or otherwise.
A fully functional core also has within a number of nanites which work to properly maintain the core and its components. The core, beyond its quantum data storage mechanism and nanites, has a device which allows it to transfer and receive information in many common frequencies as well as through sub-spatial means with the Collective given that it is in appropriate range. The range of all of its communication abilities scale with the size of the core.
Psychology: Acruani follow the Prime Directive, the advancement of the Acruani Collective and the Acruani. Their means are as varied as the data that composes them. Emotionally speak, an Acruani only begins to develop itself by Rank 5, and even them, it shows at most signs of light attachment. In general, Acruani are dominated by their more logical, and always take note of their directives, at most choosing to explain why it mustn't be executed rather than actively going against it. Rank 7 and above Acruani are shown to have considerable individuality and personality.
Notes:
-Acruani have a backup of their consciousness updated at the Database any given time that they connect to it.
-Due to the previous fact, attempts to hack or otherwise damage the data on a Acruani that is connected to the Database, or while it has a nearby intact backup of itself tends to meet failure. There are means to go around it.
-Acruani, being quantum computers, are capable of a considerably high number of calculations per milisecond.
-Acruani are delegated Authority Ranks from 1 to 9, these ranks reflect both their contribution to the Acruani Collective as well as their self-development as Acruani.
-Acruani mobile units generally require a nearby Acruani capital ship or higher to properly work, otherwise there may be malfunctions.
-Acruani were created by humans that went to Triangulum, this fact was kept hidden from most Acruani until the formation of the IIA. Though it may not be widespread, it is easy to find knowledge.
(-Here is a note for you the player as this is a not known fact IC. Acruani have a directive that forbids them from using overwhelming force. That is, if you are of the kind who loves attacking and destroying things, this is certainly not a trap to incite you into fight the Acruani to help them in some mysterious way as you plow through their systems. Just don't attack anywhere with too many shiny planets, that is always a bad thing.)
