The original inhabitants of the Eusan system. Originating from Vineta thousands of years ago, they expanded across the system after the rise of the Empress and her Empire.

Originally known as 'Human', the Nation has re-christened this species as 'Gestalt' to distinguish them from Replikas, both of which it considers to be equally Human.

The Empire still uses the term 'Human', its human supremacist ideology seeing artificial beings as lessers, referring to them only as Machine Servants.
