History & Background (Dossier)
Hivers are cautiously expanding into Nooq, cultivating alliances. By making the Nooq Sector unattractive -- populated by resilient native races -- the Hive Federation hopes to subtly deflect any surge of K’kree expansion from Nuughe Sector, convincing the K'kree to expend their energy elsewhere. There are rumours of long-term plans to make the region a quagmire for the K’kree if they invade, with resistance movements and subversive elements primed to begin their activities as soon as the first K’kree warriors arrive.
The coreward-trailing part of the sector, distant from both Hiver and K'kree space, is the home of the Inheritors. Since they developed space travel a few hundred years ago, the Inheritors have actively colonized 28 star systems in the vicinity of their home Sphere, mostly establishing bases on small airless moons and in asteroid belts, where they mine for raw materials rare in their home system. The majority of interstellar colonies have been established by the Circle of the Sphere, though other Inheritor factions and nests later established colonies, sometimes leading to rivalry and even armed skirmishes.
Cautious observation from 998 to 1027 led to the Hive Federation initiating direct contact in 1008 with representatives of the Circle of the Sphere.
In neutral space between the Hive Federation and Inheritor systems are two small independent powers, the Axanatglar Free State and the Uxiteck Trading Alliance.
