This page carries information about the capaign world, which is heavily influenced by the science fiction animated series ExoSquad and Blue Gender.

Neo Sapiens

The Neosapiens are a race of genetically engineered sentient humanoids based on the race of the same name in the science fiction animated television series Exosquad.

Appearance

Neosapiens visually resemble seven to nine feet tall humans with pale blue skin. They have four fingers, including two opposable thumbs, on each hand, and four toes on each foot. Completely hairless, they also have a brightly colored tattoo, a so-called brood mark, on their foreheads, which denotes what brood they were created in. The brood mark is unique for every Neosapien and helps to distinguish them from each other, since their visual appearance doesn't vary as much as humans' one.

Origins & History

In the Exosquad universe, the Neosapiens were created by the humans (often called "Terrans" by Neosapiens, whose nickname among humans is "Neos" or, derogatory, "Sapes") sometime in the early 2040s to serve as slave laborers on Mars, as a part of their terraforming efforts there and on Venus. This also explains their appearance: the blue skin would make them easily visible on Mars and their well-muscled physique would make them very strong workers.

Neosapiens are physically far superior to baseline humans. They can breathe in far thinner atmospheres, with a much higher carbon dioxide content (which again makes sense for a race designed to work on Mars). They have greater strength, speed, stamina, and vision. In addition, they require very little food and have no need to sleep. Indeed, Neosapiens have been genetically optimized in virtually every bodily attribute.

Although there are Neosapiens of both genders, they are reproduced only by batched cloning in a brood chamber. They are incapable of sexual reproduction, and are in fact bred to be sterile by the Terrans in an unsuccessful attempt to control them.

Neosapien Revolt

Nearly all of the Neosapiens were slaves in the Martian mines before the recent Neosapien rebellion. Although they were granted increased rights following the Neosapien revolts of the late 2060s (including control of Mars), most Neosapiens still live in virtual slavery.
