Not sure if we were still debating whether or not our characters are Oortians, but it looks like we are. At least, descended from them - as in they aren’t snake people or something.

I think your logic is somewhat flawed. For example, since potatoes were first used by the Quechua people of Peru, does that mean everyone who eats potatoes is Quechua?
This is not to say the descendants of the Oort do not walk among us. I understand they have infiltrated the upper hierarchies of most guilds and have plans to overthrow the Mayors and institute a One Worlds Government. They have a secret portal network known only to their own kind. You did not hear this from me. I did not reply to this thread.

Wouldn’t Oortians be more analogous to Humans? So the claim would be - since a recipe was created by Humans in Peru, others who use that recipe are also Human or descended from Humans.
…at least that’s what the voices in my head are saying. I need to fashion a new tin foil hat.
How you know what oortian is if we don’t even know who was before oortian is a name that only came up in recent history to give a name to the unknown

The phrase “first used by” implies that it has since been rediscovered. Our “technology” doesn’t seem to be itself innovative, but instead imitative of Oort tech. The highest tech things we build require dug up ancient parts. We don’t seem to have our own tech, we just repurpose and reuse what we find around us with little or no understanding of how it works.

I like to think the citizens are an agrarian society that arises out of lizards after the humans pollute the earth and destroy it. Oort is a mispronunciation or Earth (in my canon)

It would be interesting to see a planet that has been high tech for a couple million years… with technology seams thick as coal.
