• Nobles of Null is a forum based roleplay site where sci-fi and magic collide. Here, Earth remains fractured and divided despite humanity reaching out to the stars. Worse still, the trans-human slaves of one major power have escaped, only to establish their own Empire, seething with resentment at abuses of the past. Even the discovery of aliens, though medieval in development, has failed to rally these squabbling children of Earth together with its far darker implications. Worse still, is the discovery of the impossible - magic. Practiced by the alien locals, nearly depleted and therefore rare, its reality warping abilities remains abstract and distant to the general populace. All the while, unseen in the darkness of space, forces from without threaten to press in. For those with eyes opened by insight, it is clear that an era is about to end, and that a new age will dawn.

Loonie


Loonie refers to Humans who grew up in low gravity, often leading to their heights being near double of a normal human.

This often leads to health complications, and difficulty surviving in 1g.

History

During early human colonization of space, it became increasingly common for people to live and work in low gravity situations. As space continued to develop, people started to be born into low gravity and spend much of their lives there. This would lead to people becoming exceptionally tall and often much more frail than their parents. This would often happen on the Moon where colonists might know only Moon Gravity for their entire lives.

By the 2300s, most space habitats included extensive 1g habitat areas, making it increasingly uncommon to see.

Meaning


Loonie is a catch-all term for someone who grew up in low gravity. This is typically vary apparent as growing up in low gravity tends to create an exceptionally tall and lanky human.
