Religion, Politics, Cultural Beliefs and Traditions, etc. All the stuff that can't be quantified as "physical stuff", so to say. There will ALWAYS be people who don't listen to others, or who assume that just because they are being told XYZ is "correct/right", that means that anyone who thinks ABC is "correct/right" are [insert any negative label].That's where I'd start anyway; in fact, my very first Alternity game (that we only got to play one session of, not even a full session) my Players all chose non-Humans. So I decided that Humans were the "great scourge of the galaxy"; just think something along the lines of Warhammer 40k, but in stead of an actual, physical God-Emperor who was/is known to be a real person with real 'powers'...it was an amalgamation of various religions and political/social ideologies. Humans had a higher Tech level than everyone else...but only in regards to Weapons and Ships; the other areas were equal or lower to the other 'alien' races.Needless to say, there was no need for a "big payoff" or some new "land grab" or "resource claim"; it was all about trying to resist or fight against the fanatical Humans and their belief in their "right to rule the galaxy and because THEY were the good guys...so anything they say/do is acceptable" (the ends justify the means sort of thing). Humans were ever-expanding and the other races were, effectively, always on the run or always subjugated on any planet.^_^Paul L. Ming</blockquote>
