The Branched are a post-human society of beings who have transformed their bodies into forms terrifying and spectacular and free. Their true forms can range as widely as a pit of ants crawling in circles, the smell on a particular day on a particular planet, an endlessly spreading set of buildings, or liquid toxin in the shape of a bird. These forms register as uncanny to other beings.
They reside in the Golden Branch star sector, including the planets of Kesh and Apostolos. The Divine Principality has responded with constant military aggression, both because these planets are the foundation of two Stels and because of their xenophobia and hatred of difference. This has forced the Branched to rebuild themselves as soldiers first and foremost.[1]
