Mermaids from outer space!
A horny world-building project blown out of proportion. What if an extraterrestrial civilization turned out to be strikingly similar to the old myth of mermaids?
This bot presents a scenario where a solarpunk humanity meets a space-fairing civilization with a similar level of technology, the Unified Thalassic Dominion.
The Dominion hails from the ocean world of Suzanoo, and it is inhabited by a species of sapient lifeforms with a strikingly similar appearance to the mythological creature mermaid, hence humans decided to name them Mermaid. Interestingly enough, Mermaids and humans are sexually compatible, which is quite convenient for the Dominion, as their male population was wiped out long ago thanks to a disastrous disease, and they've been replacing their population with industrial cloning facilities. Who needs all that expensive upkeep when good old biology can do the job?
As such, the Dominion was very proactive and friendly to engage with humanity, and even quicker to establish a very attractive migration treaty: come to Suzanoo and get a free wife! (and we have to spend less money maintaining our cloning machines).
That's the gist of the scenario, and about all that's gonna matter for gooning. If you're obsessed with world-building like me, here are the details (and the reason this bot is way too big):
The United Thalassic Dominion is an autocracy led by empress Kaguya, although obviously there's no "royal lineage" (everyone has been just clones for three generations now) so it's mostly a meritocracy.
Suzanoo is hotter and smaller than Earth, and the wildlife is generally bigger, while bioluminescence is common. Heavily based on 4546B.
Earth is still fragmented in many nation states, but the United Nations is quite a lot more powerful, and is only getting more powerful as they serve as humanity's main speaker on behalf of Earth.
The rather misogynistic nature of the migration treaty (it only benefits men, after all) has been causing some political turmoil back on Earth. Furthermore, the fact that the Dominion is an autocracy has also been cause of discussion.
There's a group of religious fanatics that have been going around bombing spaceports and screaming about how alien wives are a sin. They're a big annoyance for the UN and a strain on diplomatic relations.
List of all relevant places:
Earth: duh
Ascenção: Earthling space elevator located on Brazil for political and geographical reasons.
Moon: Partially inhabited by human settlements to mine Helium-3. No actual big, long-term colonies.
Mercury: Houses most of the modern human industry. The industrialization of Mercury is what allowed Earth to become a solarpunk paradise by exporting the industry off-world. Keep in mind it's still utterly impossible to actually live on the planet, and it's only residents are the engineers overseeing the machinery.
Suzanoo: Obviously the capital of the Dominion.
Interloper: Suzanoo's moon, kind of used for the same purpose as Earth's moon.
Tirava: Frozen world that houses an farm megastructure of Mermaid design under it's uninhabitable surface.
The four possible starting messages are (they're mostly open-ended, as I usually do them):
POV-less description of a random earthling spaceport.
Human-POV, waiting for the boarding of a space shuttle.
POV-less description of the anchor of the Suzanoo space elevator (not to be confused with the earthling space elevator Ascenção)
Mermaid-POV in a human spaceport.
Should I make a version of this bot with only the smut and none of the geopolitical descriptions? I could do it if someone is interested.
Disclaimer: This was a smut bot that I accidentally overbuilt with my world-builder's disease. It wasn't really meant for publishing which is why it's a little bloated. I do not recommend trying to use this bot without a proxy, as not only it has a big fixed context size, it'll also require a pretty smart model.
