History & Background (Dossier)
Reproduction or perpetuation of a species is one of the primary drives of a sophont species. It is by no surprise that many sophonts not only perpetuate their own race, but also seek to create or modify new lifeforms.
Some sophont species such as the Hivers put great societal important on the creation, Uplift, and perpetuation of advanced lifeforms.
The Solomani share a common passion for Geneering, but their attitudes regarding new life differ greatly from the Hivers.
