History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Multi-world Federation member states in Ricenden include the Aftydrelder Maternal Union, the Ixualald Society of Friends, the Thacullyan Central Reserve, and the Umvaol Treaty States. Important member races like Gurvin, Ithklur and Za'tachk are of course common.

- -3986: The Hivers are shocked to encounter the Ithklur, a race far more violent than any encountered previously.
- -3548: Eager to present a united front to acquire jump-2 drive from the Hivers, the Gurvin form the Gurvin Interstellar Democratic Republic and make an official request to join the nascent Hive Federation and be provided with jump-2. The Hivers declare the Gurvin an "adult" species and agree.
- Circa -2900: After a millennium of Manipulation, the Ithklur take their place as an important member of the Hiver interstellar community.
