The Nomad Lore

[Igiss]

Nice one.

For the issue of making this canon. Unselie's known for overly critical attitude to things, but I think he represents opinion of fairly large amount of people. On the question of why, for example, RP developments of one faction should be considered as superior to all others.

I don't believe there's such a thing as "canon" for us. The mod has a storyline that I write in the form of news and (sometimes) rumors. The world is large, however, and many factions/groups hardly ever get mentioned in those news. Interfering with internal affairs is also rare.

From this point of view, the RP of various factions can all be considered part of Discovery lore (will avoid the world "canon" here) while the stories don't contradict each other and the official storylines. The news rarely mentioned Nomads (except for The Wild), since they are supposed to be separated from humanity, with the infested cleansed from populated planets after the war. Fighting the Nomads is no longer on the agenda, it hardly ever was.

It makes sense that the Nomad developments remain unknown for the rest of humanity. If there will be any direct impact of the Nomads for the humans of Sirius, "official" story will reflect this.

So, the concept posted here is in line with what we're doing. I see no reason to refuse it being part of our lore, and no reason to avoid using it for further official developments. If there are concerns about some particular parts of the document, voice them.
