The Privileged

Species: Human

Home world: Midnight Planet in the Gorgon system.

Union Member - Original members 4,000 - Deep Cryosleep until 4500 OTT. Numbers increased to 45,000. All members are super powered but in comparesment to standard humans, but nothignextreme.

After the Superhuman episode of Earth History, and the subsequent exile of 25,000 "super humans". The Supers exiled on the world New Olympus begun fioghting among themselves.

The New Gods almost immediately started fighting among each other and for the right to rule. Of the 25,000 only about 9,000 survived the first ten years of the colony. Without access to Gene crafting technology, most of the second generation reverted to natural human state, as most gene crafts were not inherited by their offspring. Some of the genetic alterations, when mixed during copulation, led to a large number of deformed and handicapped offspring. (the Outcasts )

Over the years two groups perculated to the top, those who retained or developed their added abilities and those who had reverted to standard human nature. The ones with power, the Privileged and those without power, the Standards. Those groups hated and mistrusted each other  leading to a number of skirmishes, battles and three full blown civil wars. All this did little to develop the colony. In 2299 the Colony was nearly destroyed and at the brink of becoming extinct.

The Standards forced to fight the Privileged became unsurpased masters in close combat technique. The smaller but powerful Priviledged, retreated to a different planet and begun associating themselves with the New Vrill. The Vrill and the Falkenhorstsocieties rejected them as there were Priviledged from all human species and tVrill onlyu accepted terrans of Aryan blood. The Priviledged realized that despite their powers and advantages they could hot maintain a healtyh Gene pool and faced slow but steady decline. The Priviledged joined the young Unionm with an unusual request. The Priviledged entered controlled cryo sleep. The human sub species has been revived and re introduced into Union society in 4500 OTT.
