	PCs are all Betas, and can be made using the race creation rules (SWADE p. 18). Betas are made with four points of positive racial abilities; optionally, you can take up to four points of negative racial abilities as well to get more positive racial abilities (for a total of eight positive, four negative). All racial traits must make sense for the animal the Beta is derived from; you can't take Armor for a small, quick animal, or Horns for a species that lacks them. However, Betas of the same derivation may have different traits; they are custom-designed organisms, so a given wolf-Beta may have enhanced Strength and a bite attack, while another wolf-Beta has superior speed and keener senses.

	A Beta-Class Sapient Humanoid Lifeform, as distinct from Alpha-Class Sapient Lifeforms, i.e, humans and other sapient species. Betas are anthropomorphic animal-people, genetically engineered and grown in artificial wombs. They resemble humans with animal features, or perhaps animals with a generally human size and build. The precise details vary from Beta to Beta, even those derived from the same animal species, but a Beta can never be mistaken for a human.		A ''Beta-Class Sapient Humanoid Lifeform,'' as distinct from Alpha-Class Sapient Lifeforms, i.e, humans and other sapient species. Betas are anthropomorphic animal-people, genetically engineered and grown in artificial wombs. They resemble humans with animal features, or perhaps animals with a generally human size and build. The precise details vary from Beta to Beta, even those derived from the same animal species, but a Beta can never be mistaken for a human.

	Betas have a unique legal position: they are recognized as intelligent and self-aware beings, and yet they are wholly artificial, created in laboratories at great expense. After years of legal wrangling between those who believed they deserved full freedom and those who believed they should be considered products rather than people, a compromise was reached. Betas are legally people, and as such are entitled to certain rights; they cannot be enslaved, killed, or otherwise harmed without the same due process available to naturally-born people. However, they are born into debt, and are required to work for the corporation that spawned them until such time as the cost of their creation is paid off. This cost is known as "buyback," since a Beta who reaches it is said to have bought themselves back from their corporate masters.

	It's the 25th century A.D. Humanity has mastered space travel and spread out through the Milky Way, establishing colonies on dozens of habitable worlds. Many earthly nations ~~hve~~ fallen away in view of the vastness of space; the remaining national collectives have at least achieved something approaching world peace. In addition, the last few centuries have seen the rise of the megacorps, business concerns with the financial power of nations.		It's the 25th century A.D.

	We're not alone. Other intelligent species exist, our neighbors and occasionally our rivals. Fortunately, the majority of them prefer peaceful coexistence, and as a result, the Galactic Union was formed. A coalition of a dozen or so technologically-advanced species, the Union exists to prevent interplanetary warfare and to facilitate cooperating and the sharing of information.		We're not alone.
