Earth and Beyond
Earth and Beyond is a science fiction MMORPG set in a future where three human-descended ethnicities - Terrans, Progen and Jenquai - control different regions of space. The Terrans rule Earth through powerful trading corporations, the Progen, genetically engineered for strength and efficiency, inhabit Mars, and the Jenquai, focused on knowledge and exploration, occupy space stations orbiting Jupiter's moons.
Story
The discovery of an ancient stargate, initially hidden by the Jenquai and later uncovered by a Terran spy, triggered the Gate War: a nine-year conflict between the three ethnic groups. The war ended with a truce and an agreement to share control of the gate. During this time, the Terran corporation InfinitiCorp secretly reverse engineered the technology and created the Infinitigate. Fifty years later, the three ethnicities have spread to several star systems. Peace reigns, but fundamental mistrust remains and the possibility of renewed conflict continues to influence relations.
