For those not familiar of the other fandoms. Don't worry i will try to make the story as open as possible to all. Since it will change a lot of the established places of those fandoms to accommodate for the story. And also would anyone be willing to beta or co-writes this? Because I'm not really an expert in terms of lore (especially in Shadowrun lore) and quality of fics and have a lot of ground to cover. If willing PM me and let's work this out.
Also if you have read this story before i have edited both chapters of 1 and 2 for improvement and has added and changed many plot points. I recommend a reread of the first two chapters. I changed and edited a lot of parts which it has significant plot changes and better grammar.
Oh and best of all enjoy.
A Populated Galaxy.
The Most Separated Race
Introduction
The one of the things that makes humanity so unique in the Galactic theater is magic. They are one of the few races to be able to manifest and harness it.
But this advantage has very big twists. Because of magic they have bragging rights to be the only race to be so close too many apocalypses (Yes in plural) .Also because of it, wars and civil strife became more common to this race .It is also because of magic that made humanity so spread out in the Galaxy.
So come, take my hand so I can tell you their story.
Chapter 1 The Great Disappearances and involuntarily humanity's division
Magic is a big subject to talk about. As a turian it was hard at first to understand it and its properties. It's study can be said as both scientifically and spiritually. Scientifically , through its study of magical theory and understanding its properties and limits. Spiritually because of the heavy mentality training involved in it. Belief is an integral part of it. Not just fooling yourself but pure and actually belief and idealism which affect the magic being done by the user. With the basic theory about it said we can move to the subject of this chapter.
The Great Disappearances.
With the end of the 4th world magic once again has left earth and humanity. For unknown reasons the amount of natural magic energy production has increased to the point where it will not leave humanity side forever. You see humanity existence in their native world of earth is divided in magical ages. The odd numbers 1st, 3rd and 5th ages without magic and the 2nd, 4th and 6th ages with magic. 1st-4thages has proof of its existence but those ages was hardly recorded that is why i can't really say anything about it. And because of the high energy concentration but in an age without magic the excess energies had to be exhausted somewhere. This large amount of magic fluctuation has caused human population in earth to be transported to other worlds in the galaxy . This has lead to the many human galactic civilizations we have seen today.
It cannot be said how much this event has occurred but it has at least transported a four hundred million of the earth's population before space travel. It occurred between random amounts of time. So it was never predicted when it occurred. This disappearances has caused great shock in the human populations and untold amounts of religious activity and civil strife. Gradually humanity started to adapt to their unique situations which has led towards their unending curiosity on this event occur. It sped up technological advancement. An example of their Great technological advancement was their history between in the earth centuries of 1880 towards 1970. Which change their technological level from Gunpowder age and horses towards an age of Cybernetics, Cryo technology , Giant Mechas and Industrial Explosion. Of course this is also the age of the Paradox war but that will be covered in another chapter. (Of course I am talking about the Human home world Earth of the Systems Alliance. Supposed origin world of all humans) It seems the Destination Planets of the Magic transportations are mostly large extensive biospheres and large amount of natural resources. Usually towards Planets like earth-like in terms of climate and Environment. Of course there has been recorded for Magical transportation towards inhospitable planets but the number is very few.
Chapter 2 The history you have all been waiting for
All human civilizations are all located in the area called " Non- Prothean Space". For all those forgetting their most primary education this is the area of space with no evidence of Prothean influence whatsoever. No Mass Relays for travel , No prothean cities or planets , No prothean artifacts or Mass effect related technology. Of course this space is not just encompassed by only humans but this book is not about them now is it? ( i might do a research on other species populating Non-Prothean Space but Turians can only live for so long.)
Excerpts from the best selling E-book "The Most Separated Race" by Turian scholar Grekus Norlem. He has traveled across to various human sectors to chronicle human history. He is one of the most renowned human expert in citadel space. Also an adviser for the citadel council in human related issues.
"They are ready for you now" said the female desk sergeant towards a man that looks no less than 21 Caucasian with a shaven head dressed in average Earth casual clothes of a leather jacket and khaki pants.
He was directed towards next room in which there was a lone seat and what looks like a judging panel in which three Meta-Humans were sitting. Two humans one male and one female and an elf who is also female. They are all dressed in Systems Alliance officer uniform. Even being accustomed towards stressful situations the tension and authority coming from the panel is just too strong even for him . "Maybe because the human female of the panel is my mother" he thought
"John Shepard " the human female said in loud voice.
" You are accused of multiple counts of numerous shadowrunning related crime. According to your statement you
have stated you are guilty for all this charges. But this panel is not about conviction now is it? You have quite the reputation in the shadowrun world. Efficient , deadly, doesn't take hits and yet still have a reputation to be one of the best shadowrunners in this Planet of Mindoir and this solar system.
So tell me,
what makes you eligible to for the Shadowrunner amnesty act?"
Shadowrunner; are the elite criminals of the Sixth World. When conflicts arise and cannot be solved by legal means, the corporations, governments, wealthy individuals and even organized crime can subcontract their dirty work to deniable specialists.
Shadowrunners fall outside the structured corporate world. Many are outcasts, having risen from the streets or fallen from corporate or government ranks. Their ranks include idealists and pragmatists, professionals and amateurs, disillusioned ex-corp/government/military personnel who have thrown off the shackles of corp society to achieve freedom and those who have never known any life outside the shadows. The one thing they have in common is that through necessity or by choice, they work in the shadows cast by the gigantic corporate buildings. Players of Shadowrun most commonly assume the role of these shadowrunners.
