The time is 10 years after episode 3. The place, the planet Telur. A place so far from any action that Tatooine gets a McDonalds first.
So a brief history of the planet.
-300,000 years: First Human Expansion STL probes and Biopackages
-200,000 years: Genetic engineering advances and human immortality
-175,000 years: War of the Gods, Advanced forced evolution for infantry, Use of hardware discouraged, Midichlorines developed to try to create a galactic hive mind.
-125,000 years: End of the war, Many planets devastated, Most immortals pass on but some still remain. Dark ages, Space flight lost
-75,000 years: Lost bioprobe hits Telur. Fast evolution but no midichlorines
-25,000 years: Telur habitable
-10,000 years: First human colonization. Colony Fails
-2,000 years: Telur recolonized
Telur:
Shallow seas <300m, mostly islands. Two large continents are on the poles.
Most life is amphibious. Top predator is a 200’ centipedes called Worms.
All speeders are fitted with subsonic sirens to scare Worms. Works well except it annoys and enrages mating Worms.
Worms breed in the same area all the time (due to temp). Very loyal to eggs but when hatched the parents leave. Then another pair move into the territory.
Young Worm provide important nutrition to humans on Telur. It is a status symbol not to have to take supplements but eat young worm.
Telur very independent. No council seat. Currently in a Feudal system but not calcified. Mostly rivals are economic and status not combat.
No standard hierarchy, so counts, earls, etc all together.
Planet self sufficient, large asteroid belt provides metals.
Almost no export 1-2 ships/year. They trade exotics for otherworld tech..
