Category:Ascension

Ascension picks up many, many, many years after World's End. The Earth isn't in very good condition. The domes the cities relied on to keep them safe worked for some time but eventually it became clear that those domes weren't exactly what the people on Earth hoped for. There simply weren't enough resources to make up for the influx of people.

Though the first time around the Immortals fixed this problem with the shift, it could not be called into action with so many people on the ground. So the Earth turned it's eyes skyward. They found they weren't alone in the stars and came into contact with many worlds and slowly earned their place among them. They became a part of the universe and were no longer an island in space.

The Earth still houses some people. The domes slowly becoming safe and replenishable. They've also begun terraforming measures in an effort to get the Earth back to what it could have been and what it should be. Hopes are high and people are confident it will become more livable and offer a place for people to call home.

However many of the citizens moved off world. Some by choice, some by necessity. They live amongst other races and have slowly spread throughout the universe. It's a hopeful clue to the fact that they had never been alone and weren't going to suffocate. Some planets offered homes to the citizens in large groups creating their own colonies, cities an countries but almost every group has a mix of races from other planets.

Though despite all the good bad always rears it's head. Some of the people left on Earth became more prejudice and bitter. They had a whole new set of races to hate and campaign against. Though this activity obviously isn't exclusive to Earth. Many people have their own stereotypes and beliefs of earth's people. Wasteful, unpredictable, spoiled, or volatile. Not everything is sunshine and puppies.

Technology
The technology appearing in Ascension is obviously far, far ahead of World's End. It's basically your science fiction genre level. This can vary depending on how advanced the planet or society is. Some World's still lead a very primal lifestyle with technology to reach out into the stars and keep in communtication and everything else simple.

Races
All of the races have persisted on. Vampires have found themselves through the carrying on of the virus that almost all of them can exist in the sun.

The Werewolves find their changes more voluntary off world away from the Earth's moon.

The Kaida have thrived along side the technology. Their natural gift with technology became more useful than ever and they became more accepted into society. They are also a big part of the effort to return Earth to a livable planet. Some have also quickly climbed ranks as pilots that are highly sought after. Despite the Appearance of the Kaida which call back to the dragons they're wonderful at adapting.

Shifters have finally lost their stigma when most people realized on the scale of weird they ranked low with some of the things that they discovered. Some old hatreds still die hard of course. People hate to let go of a grudge or say they're wrong.

Astika have become very respected warriors and soldiers for different planets and places. They're more spread out and some have been attracted by the basic lifestyle that some planets lead and others climb ranks in militaries. Of course some are smaller scaled and are pilots and bounty hunters. They'd essentially stayed the

Then of course new races have been born. New lives beginning. Then there are also new advances in science that have helped create whole new lines of people through experimentation and cross breeding. Though most experimentation is frowned up it's something that runs rampant on Earth and elsewhere as technology from different places merged together.
