Fringe Movements

(Champions' Club / Site Map / YouTube)

Though subcultures and vitrual societies are too numerous to discuss completely in a given lifetime there are a few worth noting for their suprising level of organization, membership and resources.

* Chosen of the Ancients: A radical sect of the Ancient Synod. Chosen believe that their founder is in communication with the precursors as a messiah. Ancient theory adherents do not typically have messianic concepts in their worship. The Chosen were instrumental in Martian, belt and ARC independence as they hijacked the two Authority super carriers that would have crushed the entire free worlds uprising. Their fleet is still enroute to Promxima centauri at 4% the speed of light using their adapted generation ships.
* Daughters of Order:This movement is a matriarchal society against seed clones and artificial wombs of any sort.
* Galactic Union of NPCs: A farcical and at times unhinged but popular moment of those who believe (or claim to) they are supporting characters in a universal simulated game. This is cleverly rooted in the simulation debate but also has a massive proportion of VR addicted, abraisive, trolls perpetually covered in cheesy-crumble dust. They are organized into union locals and have successfully lobbied for union rights - including state subsidies and grants - on dozens of small Federarion settlements. These unionized NPCs are also in several ongoing legal battles to control the greater NPC movement, seeing non-union NPCs as having "internalized player character supremacy" and "become the pawns of player characters such as the many celebrities that support the other NPC movement". There is a deep, somewhat deranged subculture to this movement that has law enforcement concerned.
* Hardbodies: In most of human space replacement of the human body with cybernetics is not seen as controversial. This is a fringe movement only in the Solar Authority and a few Federation worlds that have domestic limits on cyberware. There are several social clubs franchises in ARC that cater exclusively to heavily cyber molded individuals. A small, organized group of ARC and Federation radicals self-experiment with whole body replacement, leaving only the brain.
* Mennonite Clades: Mennonites who have accepted genemods, ecosystem engineering and bio-womb seed clones as part of nature rather than technology. They believe it is their mandate to ensure life prevails over technology and have been tied to violent anti-cyber activities.
* NPC United Fellowship: This group of "Non Player Characters" believe, or mostly believe, they are likely artificial programs in a simulation. They track people who they believe are players and either avoid or support them based on what game they think is being player by users. A large portion of these NPCs actually believe and have support interesting ongoing physics experiments to detect the simulation. They are renowned for their incredible private parties and have significant celebrity endorsements. Numerous celebrities have funded the NPCUF as the NPCs are excellent for extending social network reach. A number of celebs have "married NPC" and the movement generally shared in the great wealth of those estates. It is suspected that a number or ARC augments may be involved in management of the NPCUF assets and influencer network.
* Sahara Eternals : An extremely secretive religious movement based on psychedelic substances, meditation and environmentalism. It is largely based in Africa and the Arabian peninsula but with some small cells across Eurasia. The movement maintains its places of worship, akin to hidden monasteries, in small unimportant communities. The core belief is that one day, they will liberate Earth from unenlightened human society and return it to a primordial state as its gardeners. The Eternals are particularly elusive and rarely can Authority intelligence match them.
* Uploaders: There are those who believe flesh can be transcended for a digital existence. These people seek to upload themselves, becoming software or at least adaptive hardware.
* Vegan Liberation Front: The VLF believes animal life is the moral oppressor of all other life and are leveraging genetic modification to live plant based and socially cooperative. Vegan food is by far the most common food across human space... so it is no longer enough to eat plant based. Now you need to be plant based. Don't internalize the oppression, don't be an animal!
