Hello there reader. I'm male, living in the U.S., 15, and well love this site. I found it a year ago and well, I'm in love with it! Now, I'm hoping to write a crossover of District 9 and Starship Troopers; possibly some others if I feel generous, (Luckily, I'm a mostly selfish person ;) ). I currently need to research about both for both history, bio, technology, planet, etc., but anyway here is my idea of it. If there is any chance you can help me with this, or I'm leaving something out please P.M. me and let me know. Bio: The Puwoopa (Pu-woo-pay), or known by the Federation as "prawns" as they bear a strange resemblance to the South Africa Parktown Prawn king cricket, are a insectoid like creatures that stand around an average 6'5 to 7'2, that are impressively agile and strong with highly advanced technology, such as the powerful ray gun rifle that blows their targets to bits, or the seemingly unstoppable exosuit, known to take out an entire battalion of troopers even when under heavy fire, although it would require great handling and piloting, along with making a translator and implanting it into their inner ears, able to make out what any species language. They also seem to have a strange appetite for cat food. Standard Puwoopa have brown exoskeletons, however many have been known to variety colors shells along with eye color. However, while Prawn weaponry is in fact remarkable, no other species can simply hold them and fire them due to the Prawns infusing their DNA into them, making them unusable by any other species, whether human or any other. They also been known to be outstanding engineers, having been seen repair a broken exosuit with nothing more then scrap and a low powered sat-blower, a giant grenade launcher like energy weapon with a satellite like dish at the barrel end that is capable of blowing a whole in a federation drop ship. The Prawns believe to have been decedent from the control bug, due to them being able to think on their own and because of similar facial features. Klendathu: The home planet of The Puwoopa, Klendathu, orbits a twin star system; one blue and one yellow. It has two moons and borders an asteroid belt that has an unlimited surplus of asteroids that are presumably the remains of Klendathu's twin world. The surface of the planet contains a breathable atmosphere but is arid and extremely mountainous, covered with barren like rocky hills, described by many of the mobile infinity, "A barren fucking wasteland.". However, in small parts of the surface their are deep inner caves with river running through it. Along the sides of the rivers are fertile soil, suitable for farms for crops to be planted. Also, Prawns have been noted to hunt down the hostile Pseudo-Arachnid life forms on this planet, stripping off their harden shell and cutting out the edible meat. Many humans wonder how Prawns were able to build and make such advance technology, including the ability of space travel. The answer is in the titanium alloyed mines hidden deep within the surface on it, taking many Prawns to guard and protect the miners and engineers who go down and take the alloys, using them to make the outer shell and parts of the guns, exosuits, and ships, while they use the blood of both plasma and tanker bugs to power their energy weapons while using the blood of transport bugs to power their ships, also known to use the blood of the brain bugs to power translator, mobility and control of exosuits. The Prawn home world is infested with the savage, almost completely mindless Pseudo-Arachnid life forms, having kicked out the Puwoopa from their home world by sheer numbers and savageness. Pseudo-Arachnid: The Pseudo-Arachnids (more commonly known as Bugs, and Archies) are an alien race that has evolved and conquered several planets outside Federation space by hurling their spore into space and possess a social structure which fits their mental capabilities. Their are many types of Arachnids, from the basic grunt Warrior bug to the deadly plasma grenadier bugs, being able to throw plasma at troopers while still being quickly enough for close quarters combat. They are very dangerous, yet mindless species being controlled what the Puwoopa call the Brain, Control, Queen, and The rare and fearsome God bug, the head leader of all Arachnids. These bugs process the psychic abilities over the rest of the bugs, controlling them and being able to use them to do their bidding. The Federation History: The United Citizens’ Federation was forged in the fires of the Disorders, a time of violence and horror such as Earth had never known before, nor has it known since. The basic facts of Federation history are well known to most citizens and civilians in the Federation, lessons learned during the History and Moral Philosophy class almost every civilian youth takes as a required part of any public education. Unfortunately, teachers of History and Moral Philosophy have only one year in which to educate their students, to instill in them the sense of rightness and clarity of vision which are hallmarks of the Federation. Thus, sometimes these teachers must omit or skim over facts which, while not absolutely required for the course material, are nonetheless germane to any significant discussion of Federation history. With this in mind, the Citizens’ Federation opens with an extensive discussion of the history of the Federation, to cover any aspects of that history which might have been neglected in the regular coursework. At the end of 20th century, national governments of the world collapse because of so-called unlimited democracies. These "unlimited democracies" are the fraudulent Marxian definition of value from which "Communism derives" and civil unrest due to a "pre-scientific pseudo-professional class" who called themselves Social Workers and Child Psychologists banning Corporal Punishment. In 1987 there is war between the Russo - Anglo - American Alliance and the Chinese Hegemony. Shortly before the war's end, a group of intellectuals perform a coup d'état in an attempt at creating a utopia. This incident later came to be known as the Revolt of the Scientists. . At the end of the war the Treaty of New Delhi was signed. This treaty freed prisoners captured by the Russo-Anglo-American Alliance. However left approximately 65,000 civilians (Japanese, Filipino and Russian) and 2 divisions of British Paratroopers in Chinese incarceration to be sentenced for political crimes, forcing the abandoned prisoners to escape to gain freedom. It should also be noted that at the end of the 20th century, the North American Republic was brought down by raging illegal activity which took place all around the world, including Russia and the United Kingdom. Crime was at its peak for most of the second half of the 20th century, lasting up to the war between the Russo - Anglo - American Alliance and the Chinese Hegemony. After the collapse of national governments, a group of veterans in Aberdeen, Scotland formed a vigilante group to stop rioting and looting. They hanged a few people (including 2 veterans) and decide to only allow veterans to join their committee due to a mistrust of politicians. This contingency plan became routine after a couple of generations, and this group of vigilantes was the start of the United Citizen Federation. The United Citizen Federation consists of a number of star systems, planets, colonies and orbital installations all providing strategic resources key to the continued economic prosperity of the human race. While most of the human population is concentrated within the Sol system, there are a number of outer colonies that provide economic opportunities for civilians and citizens while also supporting the Federal Armed Services in their mandate of security and defense. The United Citizen Federation determined that the greatest force on Earth was the people who were willing to take up arms in defense of ones beliefs therefore a criteria for citizenship was made where service to the Federation through methods such as military service were required to obtain Citizenship. Also, a citizen accepts personal responsibility for the safety of the body politic. Civilians are not discriminated against and have more or less equal rights, with the exceptions being the right to vote and government-subsidized tuition fees. Citizens have more ease with licenses such as a license to have children. Sexism and racism are nonexistent in the Federation. The United Citizen Federation contains a number of organizations that work together to provide governmental services to all member star systems in the areas of transportation, communications, defense, interstellar trade, justice and policy making. The Tophetians, skinnies Bio: The Tophetians, also known as "skinnies" due to their slender frame, are tall 7'1 to 7'11 foot beings that breathe in methane, hence the breathers they wear along with the power suits, with three clawed appendages like the Puwoopa. They are a race of highly talented soldiers, although no where near as strong as a prawn, they are stronger then humans, and scientists, with their advanced technology, energy weapons, power armor that they have in their suits, but most importantly, their recon capabilities. Mainly used for stealth and spying, skinnies have an invisibility cloak in their suit, being able to use it for sniping, recon, spying, and planting their extremely dangerous mines. They use glop like shooter rifles that have been know to burn the flesh and bone of the targets, the skinnies have also helped the Prawns with their technology, helping them run off more then the blood of the Arachnids. The Tolpetians were originally slaves on their home world of Tolphet by the Arachnids, where they and The Puwoopa have engaged many times. When The Puwoopa discovered that the skinnies were being used as slaves, they launched to their home world, thinking if they save them then the Tophetians would let them stay on their planet and they would be able to fight back against the bugs. However, and unfortunately, when the Arachnids learned about this they destroyed the planet, making inhabitable. Many, Puwoopa and Tophetians died during the blasts sent by the bugs while however the majority escaped. The Tophetians then pledged allegiance to their Prawn saviors, helping them fight this war and after until extinction. Also, Skinnies have also put their DNA in the translator, helping the Prawns understand their language by the psychic they usually speak to each other in their difficult language. They are know fighting in the war as snipers, spies, engineers, infiltrators, pilots, and scientists. |
