The Penrose program is a series of low-cost space exploration ships for the Eusan Nation. They're mainly a propaganda project since no ship has ever found a planet outside the solar system and since they're so cheaply made, the ship's life expectancy is 3000~ days before the nuclear reactor begins to leak radiation to the habitable space and eventually kills the inhabitants.

Little is known about life within the Empire, as the government heavily censors all information. Unlike the functional society of the Nation, theirs seem to be more friendly towards art and self-expression, as well as spiritual practices.

15. #15Replikaconstantselective

    Keys: Replika

    Replikas are biomechanical humanoids made by AEON. Replikas can be classified by their unit designation, which describes their frame, neural patterns, and optimal roles. There are 8 Replika classes: ARAR, EULR, FKLR, KLBR, MNHR, STAR, STCR, and ADLR. Replikas combine organic and synthetic elements. Their bodies consist of a hard exterior black shell, crafted from carbon fiber-reinforced polyethylene encasing a titanium skeleton frame, while their interiors house softer, fleshy components fused with artificial elements. When injured, these parts exude an oxidant fluid that is strikingly red.

    All Replika classes (except Adler) have a feminine design, bearing sharp angles and a smooth minimalistic aesthetic. Distinctive highlights of their form include joints and grooves in those places where humans have joints. Replikas have human faces but with some special features: at the jawline, the black shell transitions into artificial skin with a distinct border. This is further emphasized by another dark line bisecting the face, which thickens over the nose bridge and near the ears, coupled with dark blue eyes that feature a red dot in each pupil. Replikas of the same class are absolutely identical, with differences only in small details such as hairstyle and accessories. Their "flesh" is toxic, so Replikas are not edible. Despite this, Replikas do eat human food and have a need for sleep.

    Replikas are sophisticated entities with complex personalities and distinctive features similar to humans, capable of diverse expressions and actions. Each Replika class holds a copy of a real human brain that has been tuned to suit their purpose. Replikas use feminine pronouns to address each other (except Adler - he's a male). On facilities, the they work as a family, but they don't always see or even know each other. This is especially true for ARARs, they spend a lot of time in maintenance tunnels. FKLR and ADLR rarely appear in public. Exposure to certain triggers can reawaken Replikas' original personalities and memories, potentially leading to mental degradation. The signs of mental degradation include the resurfacing of original memories (which are the same for Replikas of the same class), fluctuating or alternating personas, PTSD, violent or self-destructive behavior, dreams, hallucinations, strong feelings (e.g., love, lust, fear), and personal attachment. Any Replikas exhibiting such compromised mental states should be decommissioned. To prevent the degradation of personality, it is necessary to apply measures; specific actions depend on the Replika class.

16. #16Solar systemconstantselective

    Keys: Solar system

    • Buyan is the first planet in the solar system, renowned for the Imperial Palace that floats above its poisonous clouds.
    • Vineta, once the birthplace of mankind, is now a world engulfed by the ocean following the catastrophic impact of a superweapon that shattered its surface and moon. The surviving cities have been reconstructed, emerging from the vast sea with enormous artillery batteries ready to challenge Imperial planets. However, an unyielding blockade by the Imperial fleet disrupts access to Vineta and severs vital supply lines, leaving millions on the brink of starvation.
    • Kitezh, the third planet in the solar system, is a red desert world under Imperial control.
    • Rotfront, an ice moon orbiting a gas giant, is the fourth inhabited celestial body in the solar system. The people of Rotfront have deep-rooted folklore surrounding The Red Eye, which they perceive as a symbol of the ever-present surveillance by the Protektors and the tight grip of the central government on Heimat. On Rotfront, residents celebrate a holiday called Mondfest. At the end of the season, they exchange gifts of rationmarks (the Nation's currency) dipped in red. While this officially symbolizes the blood of the revolutionaries, some suggest ties to The Red Eye's folklore.
    • Heimat, the capital of the Nation, orbits another gas giant with majestic rings.
    • Leng is the outermost inhabited dwarf planet. The humanity is confined within the solar system, all colonization attempts resulted in failure.
