LORE
On the brink of extinction, humanity was pushed into a never-ending cycle of self-destruction and hatred. While on the precipice of total annihilation, humanity rose up and unlocked the secrets of their true mind thanks to the “awakening”.
With these new psionic capabilities, a purge ensued that wiped all the evil and wrongdoers from the planet. This started a new age, where for the first time in history, humankind came together united under a single purpose across the planet.
Now, humanity has set their sites outward hoping to show other “lesser beings” the error of their ways and prove humans are the ones chosen to rule the galaxy.

PERSONALITY
Humans have always had a knack of sticking their noses in places they don’t belong. Before the awakening it was always towards one another but now that they are finally unified as a species, their sights are set outward into the stars.
Humans have faced nothing but hardships in their entire history and the awakening was the first step forward to a brighter future. But with this massive achievement came the hubris that followed in it’s wake for now humanity see’s itself as perfect. For they did the impossible, they were able to break their limits and now it’s their job to teach others to do the same.
That’s not to say they aren’t compassionate. In fact, humans are perhaps the most compassionate beings in the known galaxy and even more so sense the awakening. After all, their psionic powers allow them to feel emotions way stronger then anyone else. But humans always know what’s right and if they feel a civilization is failing then they’ll be the ones to take over.

HABITABILITY
No world can compare to the beauty and uniqueness of the human home-world Terra. Brimming with life, Terra has a wide variety of different biomes from the cold artic mountains to the scorching desserts and everything in between.
Before the “awakening” Terra was on the verge of self destruction as humans polluted the planet to it’s core. But now, after seeing the error in their ways humanity has made their home better then it ever was and continue to do so on other planets.
Living on such a varied world gives humans well rounded preferences when it comes to the planets they live on. The only real decision that matters is the type, which in this instance is rock worlds.

TECHNOLOGY
Ever sense the “awakening” humans have unlocked the secrets of the mind gaining psionic capabilities. They can use these new found powers in a plethora of dangerous ways but they tend to focus their abilities in aiding their diplomatic and intel operations.
Humans are capable of training specialized diplomatic experts that know how to read the minds of those they deal with making sure to get the best out of any trade/service. While others study alien brainwave signals and can pinpoint the location of any who enter within the range of their long distance scans.
Of course, their psionic weaponry is incredibly dangerous has it has little to no counter unless the enemy is also by chance psionic. If not, these weapons deal damage to the crew member’s directly causing enemy ships to shut down and be unmanned without firing a single bullet.
