The Free Priesthood

Many things you can find in the previous factbook (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=13709251&postcount=1) are still true.
This version is about an Earth century further into the future. Asanna/Mother is still alive (fir!nans get very, very old). All humans and most hybrids are dead, leaving only the least empathetic/cooperative hybrids. In other words, anyone who is at all sensitive to psi is dead. (A word of advice: do not allow strong telepaths anywhere near your planet if they have just seen everyone they love die, it causes mass depression.)
Fir!n is not an interesting place anymore, and it would be unwise to go there because the fir!nans have gone back to their old habit of killing all aliens they see.
Asanna has left Fir!n (!!!) on a ship (also named Asanna) containing a whole fir!nan ecosystem, together with the remaining 31 hybrids.
The ship is sort of cigar shaped and 5 km tall. It has the usual cloaking and self healing armor, plus a variety of weapons. It was originally meant to be an unpleasant surprise for anyone who harassed (unarmed) Free Priesthood diplomats, but never served that purpose.
Asanna and the hybrids are xenophobes like the fir!nans they left behind. They're not evil, but, because of their history, not exactly friendly either.
