Nomads...

[Treewyrm]

Mind you, there was no "Nomad War" per se. Not in terms of an actual warfare directly with Nomads themselves, what happened instead is several key surgical operations by Order who actually fought the Nomads directly, the rest however did not, except for certain individuals may be. So their knowledge, even with fifteen years passed, is quite lacking. Not even Order really understands what they are fighting up against. But that is a different story and is to be told when the right time comes. The term "Nomad war" would best be described as "Nomad incident" or "Nomad conflict", something like that, but not exactly a full out war. Furthermore, from the climatic events of 801 A.S. till 815 A.S. Nomads, whatever was remaining of their scattered fleets surviving the shockwave, were hardly seen or active. Until recently and now things are changing, activity is rising exponentially and something is going to happen... But I'm not going to spoil, everything has it's right time to know and it has not come yet.

p.s. Public can demand anything, chances it'll be given actual knowledge is too low. UFOs? Unnaturally moving light spots in the sky? Flying saucers? Grey big-headed aliens? Blue transparent aliens? Oh yes... Whatever...

There is one thing I'd like to ask the community though. Remember, the term "Nomads" originated from the Order. Corsairs, given their relations to Order would know them as such too. Those related to Corsairs would know probably too, but not to the same extent. Others however know them under the different names. To some those are just aliens. To some they are called Spirits. Try to be inventive and try to come up with your own name rather than blatantly snatching the knowledge you have gained from playing SP into your character (for instance Navy would designate them as something like "Specie 23" or the like, try to follow up your theme and style in names too, wouldn't hurt). Unless your character was involved in the conflict itself, within Order ranks and had access - he/she would know. Others would probably have different understanding of what they are facing. Please, do not use "Slomon K'Hara", it's not known to public much, apart from Wilde and Nomads themselves. The name would play a key and important role, till a certain moment it's not has been discovered yet.
