Background Lore

When humanity reached the stars, it was like the California Gold Rush X1000. Every nation and megacorporation was looking to colonize their own planets. Claim the resources and just overall outmaneuver their rivals. Several wars were fought among various groups before a tense peace managed to take hold.

That stopping of the bloodletting is what allowed the human race to survive. We came into contact with an alien species, a peaceful first contact lulling us into a false sense of security. Just as they planned.

It was ten years later that the alien race had unleashed a secretive bioweapon, specifically targeting the human genome, it drastically reduced both the life expectancy and fertility of the human race. A deadly plague which defeated all attempts to subvert it.

The war that followed this discovery was brutal and violent as a cure was desperately sought even as both sides attempted to utterly annihilate the other. Fortunately, humanity won. Despite this great victory however we were still faced with extinction by our enemy's plague.

The only way to save themselves was to create something new. Something that wasn't entirely human but was. That was when the current species of human was created.

The population was decimated by both the war and the plague so when the new species was created it was determined that they had to both be able to breed and be bred. Thus the futa was created. Their genome was unique enough to avoid the disease but similar enough to still be called human. Just improved in every way science could manage. Gestation was reduced from 9 months to 3. They were stronger, and faster. More resilient.

Now its long after the war and all of the previous humans have died. Their nations have been adopted by their successors. Successors who realized an important lesson.

War is wasteful but its the only way to resolve certain conflicts but humans should not kill each other on a massive scale. Therefore a set of strict laws and enforcement provisions have turned war from a bloody spectacle into more of a sport. While militaries still train in lethal weapons to deal with pirates and any other alien threat that might come along wars of nations are different. When two or more of them come to battle, they fight to enslave their enemies.

There are only a few basic rules. Namely that no permanent physical harm can come to a ****. Beyond that a master has almost unlimited power for as long as the law says the **** is theirs. The duration and additional rules dependent on the agreememt of the conflict they were captured in.
