 =====Spirituality and Philosophy=====
+Humans do not practice modern religions.
 Religion within Human cultures are typically centered around Sleepers, those interred in cryogenic suspension for more than fifty years. They are simultaneously treated as living shrines and oracles, their connection with the [[:mirrors|Mirror]] not typically understood, but often felt. Sleepers often inhabit a kind of liminal space with material reality, only vaguely aware of their body's surroundings, and able to experience immaterial reality as though it were a lucid dream. It is through this connection that Sleepers gain the reputation of oracles, providing alternative perspectives and omens for events.
+As such, life scientists and cryogenicists are held in distinctly high regard within Human communities. Whereas engineers and laborers embody secular authority, life scientists inhabit a strange, oft-social role set aside from traditional hierarchy. They are entrusted with Cryfes, keys used to jumpstart the cryogenics process. These keys are infamously also used in executions and combat, where the jumpstart fluid acts as a physical poison through mass cell death.

 =====Interesting Facts=====
 <tabbox Fact 1>
-Cras eget lorem commodo neque vestibulum dignissim sit amet vitae ex.
+Humans spent 300 years in the darkness between galactic arms. They are the only known species to survive an attempt to traverse the arms in such a manner, and the effect it had on them during their induction to the Emergency Coalition serves as an ongoing point against repeating it.
 <tabbox Fact 2>
-Suspendisse lacinia lacus at est vestibulum, eget tempus elit posuere.
+Humans often utilize a technology vaguely referred to as "Neurament". Direct connections between their spinal ports and a command line interface, allowing them to vividly hallucinate prompts. Most Human technology is not locked by a password. Instead, they are locked by recorded sensations and memories.
 <tabbox Fact 3>
-Donec et lacus auctor augue varius interdum id vel orci.
+Neurament technology was initially a torture method from SolGov. Scholars and sociologists studying Human history encounter tales of entire populations being forced to endure time-dilated synthetic suffering for thoughts and actions against SolGov. The humans here are not an example of Sol culture; they are the descendants of desperate separatists.
 <tabbox Fact 4>
-In sed ipsum vehicula, iaculis risus vel, blandit tellus.
+Humans have invented a means of effective immortality through cryogenics. Strangely, at around 100 years of continued stasis, no species can be woken from this method. They become "Dreamers" or "Sleepers", only able to interact through Neurament technology or becoming a Shipmind. If removed from stasis, a Dreamer will perish from stroke and hemorrhaging.
