or will their efforts be in vain?
The society maintains an intensely meritocratic ethos, expelling individuals unable to withstand the relentless pressure of internal and external competition.

The society is founded on the principle of "protection," where the Sisimiut people make every effort to safeguard and nurture every child born in the aftermath of the 3 Wars. The colony's dictator, Novak, sets an example by personally adopting two children with disabilities. Their belief system is a blend of Christianity and a Jedi-like religion, and they strongly align themselves with the will of their current leader, Novak.
They are wandering groups that left Stepantsminda on foot to spread its creed through the world but have grown increasingly nihilistic over time and now preach death through pleasure therefore killing people through sex.
The population primarily consists of mathematicians who have deliberately chosen to live in seclusion. Among them is Jennifer Granger, who was born and raised in this community. Fascinated by the work and charisma of Fukumoto, she eventually volunteered to join the Mars mission.
The society adheres to a pantheistic and animist belief system, placing their faith solely in natural phenomena such as wind and fire. They reject scientific thinking entirely and enforce a rule that all members must wear masks within the colony as a symbol of repentance for the arrogance displayed by past generations who sought to attain god-like status.
It is a colony devoted to the pursuit of hedonistic pleasures, guided by the motto of its founder, Percy Adams, a 24-year-old woman of American descent: "Since life is inevitably fleeting, one might as well embrace enjoyment." The inhabitants of Stepantsminda prioritize the simple pleasures of life and have little interest in combat or academic pursuits. Their primary focus is on savoring life's experiences, dedicating minimal effort to meet their basic sustenance needs as they embrace the impending reality of mortality.
For over 50 years, Fukumoto has been extending invitations to Earth's most brilliant minds, urging them to join him on Mars and assist in his ambitious "Terra Formation Program." This program aims to transform Mars into a planet resembling Earth, a project spanning a millennium. However, faced with numerous rejections, Fukumoto grapples with his own moral principles and human nature. Eventually, he decides that the "Terra Formation Program" will proceed regardless, even if it means enforcing cooperation and resorting to slave labor to execute the project.
After people fled Argentina to Antarctica during the wars, a virus outbreak left them blind. Lisa Lobotka, a Consul of the Triumvirate, controls the colony. She is a 24-year-old Argentinian with Polish ancestry, blond and beautiful, wearing Grizzly fur, armed with knives and axes, and sporting an eye patch. The underground habitats are like mirrored houses, reflecting every passing person, and the creatures there have adapted to living without sight. The sky in Antarctica has a light green hue.
The Merindol Colony, nestled in the Italian Alps, operates under an intense meritocratic ethos, exiling those unable to withstand internal and external competition.

Despite his seemingly contradictory nature, he strives to create a protective system for the vulnerable within Sisimiut. Novak adopts two children with disabilities and orchestrates the care of the less fortunate across the colony.

**Elena Beltrame (37 years old):**
Head of Sisimiut’s Secret Service, Elena admires Novak for his efforts in protecting the vulnerable but harbors different convictions privately. She aspires to take Novak’s wife's place without jeopardizing her position within Sisimiut. Elena seizes opportunities to enhance her influence, even if it means challenging Novak.
**Lieutenant Walter Fritz Lundström (28 years old):**
Of Scandinavian origin, Lieutenant Lundström clandestinely opposes Novak's regime, navigating the shadows to conceal his dissenting opinions.
**Robert Contado:**
Sonia’s 10-year-old son, kidnapped by Novak, grapples with the belief that Novak loves him for who he is, not merely as a bargaining chip. Despite his apparent naivety, Robert keenly observes the peculiar dynamics between Novak and his mother.
