Reclamation Apprehension Warrant Becomes Bug Hunt

  Reclamation Apprehension Warrant Becomes Bug Hunt   "Good to see you again, Centurion." "Major. Why are you here? We have the warrant to take Rulstavi into custody for interrogation and medical examination." "We are not here to interfere with that in any way, Centurion. I am unsure of the exact chain of the communications, but the crime scene got reported up the comms chain to Weyland Yutani, which also resulted up further in the chain to the Trantor Imperium and the Tsovereign Commonwealth, and then somehow along the winding path Umbrella Tri-Cell was informed, then down to us humble mortals in the Mutual of Omicron Wild Galaxy." "Major, I am sure that is supposed to be fascinating." "Just the facts as I know them, Centurion" "Major, it still does not answer what it is you are expected to do here." "Recording and collecting evidence related to possible nefarious eldritch Sothothic entities." "...

Barsoom and Barsoomians

Image
  Barsoomians   Reprinted with permission by Kumari Emeritus Mirra Zanzibar   Homonidae Monotremata-Sapiens (Egg laying homonids), sometimes referred to as Homonidae Barsoomis. Homonidae Barsoomis is used to distinguish them from the indigenous four-armed Barsoomian White Ape and the indigenous four-armed green-skinned tusked Tharks.   The usual height range of adult Homonidae Barsoomis is between six to eight feet tall. Homonidae Barsoomis species born and raised on Jasoom (Earth) usually develop to be between five and six and a half feet tall, the same usual range for modern Jasoomian Homonidae species. Homonidae Barsoomis height is greater than average Jasoomian Homonidae species because of the lighter gravity of Barsoom, as a result their Strength per unit mass is very low while in Jasoom (Telestia/Earth) gravity. Because they are accustomed to a much thinner atmosphere, Barsoomians also possess a heartier Constitution in most Telestian (Earth) normal...

Mongo and Mongonians

Image
Mongo is a dark planet roughly the size of Mercury, whose atmosphere is cloaked in a sun obscuring layer of thick dust or smog of some sort. Being less bright than a small asteroid, even at closest approaches, seen only occasionally, it was often mistaken for a comet or asteroid. As such the sky is very diffuse light in perpetual twilight conditions, the sun an indistinct body, even the twilight and evening sky unaccountably bright with refracted sunlight. Mongo, like the planet Mercury, is a dense metallic ball with a much thinner rock crust, with a surface gravity of about 65% of Telestia. While its exact orbit is unknown, the most common estimate is 16 months, making its orbit about 1.2 Astronomical Units. Mongo’s angle to the ecliptic is extreme, so it only passes the plane of the ecliptic for only a few days every 8 months. Between its lack of luminosity (albedo) and that it only very occasionally crossed into the view where astronomers searched, Mongo’s existence went undetec...
