They might have alien savage societies, but are in the majority at the start of the game. The NPC Factions are far from the sitting ducks from previous AoW games, they can’t be ignored.

Marauders - An umbrella term for the monsters and pirates that are beyond reason and cannot be negotiated with, not a true NPC Faction.

The Psi-Fish – Mysterious floating aliens that have become more prevalent after the collapse.

The Automons – Robots from the emergency services that have developed their own autonomous AIs after the central network of CORE went down.

They strive to live in a symbiosis with other life forms, not for people with tenctaclephobia.

The Growth – Intelligent plants escaped from biotech company Terra Tech.

They haven’t lost their arrogance and entitlement though. They’ve survived the collapse through life extending augmentations and therapies which are now faltering.

The Paragons – The former governing and elite classes.

With the networks gone, they seek their thrills in the physical world. Their society and religion were shaped by gaming culture, as the empire population was entertained extreme VR experiences.

The Spacers – Mutated descendants of the urban populations.

(NPC is short for Non-Primary Combatants) The game recognizes the following NPC Factions. I’d like to emphasize the game is still in development so everything is subject to change this diary includes some WIP interface stuff and onscreen text.Īs you visit the collapsed worlds of the Star Union, you’ll notice they are filled with survivors.
