You may be an “uplift,” but you find it hard not to feel sorry for these modified monkeys around you who have to get by with half as many limbs, gaping sensory blind spots, and brittle bones that are constantly breaking. Any favors they did by uplifting octopus-kind were rendered moot when they succeeded in despoiling and abandoning the home planet you all shared. Nevertheless, you find all the ruins and derelict habitats left behind by transhumanity to be fascinating to explore, so you spend much of your time combing through spacecraft hulls and shattered stations, looking for curiosities and lost treasures. Such activities tend to take you close to Earth as well, where you support the efforts of those who hope to take the planet back. Your ultimate dream is to someday swim in the oceans of your ancestors.

**//“Maybe it’s the kind of trap that would catch a knuckle-dragging monkey, but my superior physiology was able to easily squeeze out of it.”//**
