Re: Road to Hope

Aktektan Ractor Aktektan Ractor, aka https://i.imgur.com/Y2lfkyt.png from an old northwestern word for a messenger, is a few years older than Kya and Tau, having hatched in Y936. Aktektan-pack lives in a drab rundown apartment in Ikun's dirt-poor District 12 and works at a weapons factory owned by ...

Re: Road to Hope

Ryen Kya Ryen Kya, aka https://i.imgur.com/sPDzjvh.png (named, like quite a lot of girls from that time period, after a certain water goddess who was the subject of a very popular TV show at the time), was hatched in Y943, she and her other half Ayen are the older pair of Ryen-pack's children. Ryen...

Re: Road to Hope

Icen Tau Icen Tau hatched in Y946 along with his other half Razlok ("other half" refers to the other half of the clutch, rather than being a romantic term as it is on Earth, referencing the fact that Kyanah lay eggs in pairs). Kyanah put their pack name before the given name, so he's actu...

Re: Road to Hope

An analysis of Kyanah military tech used in Project Hope. Space: the Kyanah launched five starships during the first wave; the four starships of the second wave were cancelled. Their antimatter catalyzed fusion engines are capable of reaching 15% of light speed, though the need to slow down again ca...

Re: Road to Hope

Other assorted Kyanah trivia. Tears aren't related to emotion in Kyanah, they only show up as a response to dry or irritated eyes. As for smiling, it's a show of aggression rather than happiness, but perhaps that's understandable considering that they're packing 25 millimeter canines. Emotion is mos...

Re: Road to Hope

I think we need to establish a Kyanah timekeeping system and anchor it to Earth time in some way. The year on their homeworld is about 0.46 Earth years (yay Wikipedia!), or about 168 Earth days; alternatively an Earth year is 2.17 Kyanah years. This corresponds to 256 days on their homeworld, which ...

Re: Road to Hope

While there is significant diversity in the political systems of Kyanah city-states, the majority of them do follow a particular system devised in the same region of the planet as Ikun, and of which Ikun was an early adopter. The most important position is the City Alpha, a pack whose key responsibi...

Re: Road to Hope

The Kyanah do not have a world government like so many stereotypical alien civilizations, nor even large nation-states like Earth. The vast majority of the Kyanah population live inside city-states. There is no exact count of the number of sovereign city-states on their Homeworld. The Coalition of C...
