Reln
are known for their acute hearing sensitivity, so it is unsurprising
that they are bothered by things that the rest of us barely notice.
Ticking clocks, humming electronics, loud music, and elaborate
“surround sound” entertainment systems all drive the Reln into a
high state of annoyance. Infant toys that make any kind of music or
sound are considered the worst gifts to bring to Reln baby showers,
and non-digital clocks of any kind will be quickly re-gifted by Reln
to another alien race—clocks are considered the “fruit cake” of
Reln gifts. Another race, the reptilian Krissethi, are somewhat
infamous for their “misunderstandings” about the small pets of
other races. To a Krissethi, seeing a small animal on a leash or in a
cage is no different than keeping seafood alive for freshness in an
aquarium. Even though it isn't uncommon to see headlines in the news
about the outrage against yet another Krissethi for devouring
someone's small pet, Krissethi continue to make these supposed
“mistakes.” Public opinion is beginning to form against the
Krissethi in these matters, with some people outright stating that,
until there is a law, Krissethi seem quite comfortable with
continuing this offensive behavior. It has become common knowledge:
if you own a small pet, don't invite any Krissethi to your home, even
for a short visit!
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
