Trevan Alliance

The Star Nation of the Hyperion Federation representing the Trevan species.   The trevans, after obtaining easy space travel, made contact with many races before finding the HF. During wars with them, the trevans would typically equip their weapons with large, area based radiation weapons. As trevans themselves are highly resistant to radiation, the doctrine worked more in their favour apart from the civilian casualties it caused them. This use of nuclear weaponry meant that the rest of their galaxy was constantly complaining and sanctioning about the unnessessary use of nuclear weapons.   The trevans also have 4 arms, meaning they could hold and use 2 rifles simultaneously. This made them relatively inaccurate, but largely increased sheer volume of fire. The rest of the galaxy tried to get this banned as well.   The trevan species also celebrates 2 different holidays. One of them is nuclear war day, where they remember their horrible past and try not to cause a repeat. The other holiday is commemerating the day when space travel became easy.   The 4 armed nature of trevans has impact on their culture. As they can multitask a bit better than other sentient species, their expectations of other trevan have become slightly higher.   Shortly after making first contact for the first time, they had to remove a lot of nuclear wepaons from other systems but were never willing to remove those from the Delta Orsea System system as they didn't trust the rest of the galaxy. The trevan obsession with nuclear weapons was seemingly boundless. They developed thrusters that were powered by nuclear explosions - called orion drives - which could accelerate their ships to immense values despite the relatively low tech nature of their ships - a technology that is not normally used by other factions. Gasoline as a power source rapidly became entirely obsolete after it could be phased out in favor of nuclear power sources to the point where it was minaturised for cars, but many systems were put in place to prevent deadly amounts of radiation escaping from nuclear-powred cars that have crashed. A notable amount would still escape - though the trevans themselves have developed a resistance to radiation long ago.
  The Trevan Alliance was also the nation that invented the multitool, a handheld technology that would allow the user to manipulate matter like a mobile Replicator and give them magic-like power. These have proven useful for the military as well, one being able to form cover using them. The Hyperion Federation sometimes adopts highly trained individuals with this item, known as engineer Flash Troopers.
Another vital technology they invented for the HF was the Transmutation Reactor, which is essentially a large nuclaer reactor designed to transmute atoms between elements and isotopes by adding and removing protons and neutrons, essentially giving the HF the ability to synthesize gold. These are large and energy inteisive to run - but can in many cases also produce energy via nuclear reactions that move towards iron-56.
