In the summer of 2191, the colonies of Europa, Ganymede, and numerous skyhooks (large spherical stations in orbit) in the Jovian system declare independence from the United Nations of Earth, due to a tariff on Hermian (from Mercury) goods and materials.  This leads to the First Solar War, a swift conflict fought purely in space.  The Jovians united and began hastily refitting cargo ships and space-liners for military application.  

 

The UNE sent a section of their Hermian-piloted fleet to the Jovian system, and subsequently kicked the Jovian's teeth in with nukes and rods-from-god.  The JCON surrendered, but to prevent this from happening again, the UNE wrote up a treaty to allow the illusion of independence from Earth politics.  This treaty was called the Tannhauser Treaty of 2201.  This formed an alliance between the tight-knit Earth nations, the united Jovian and Hermian systems, and granted the Martians unwarranted independence.  This created the TASEN, the Tannhauser Alliance for Solar Entities (Also known as the Solar Assembly).  

 

The part Frank plays in that war is that of a grunt working on a destroyer, and once the war is over, he had served his five-year minimum and was subsequently discharged by choice.

 

During a hundred year period of peace and technological advancement, a Swiss scientist by the name of Agon Schwartzendruber discovered a form of exotic matter with negative mass as the result of a particle acceleration experiment.  This exotic matter was dubbed the "Agon particle".  It was immediately used in experiments relating to faster-than-light travel, and with most of humanity united, we develop an FTL-capable ship by 2279.

 

For ninety long years, a starship (who's co-captain is Frank) scours the stars, establishing skyhooks, and preparing planets for colonization.  There are primitive worlds of cave creatures and every manner of environment, but no sign of sizable intelligence.  Man discovers many new elements, and much technological progress is made.  

 

However, in the back of everyone's mind is disappointment.  Disappointment in the lack of friends from other stars.  We begin to create our own aliens from our imagination, and the much-neglected science of biological engineering is brought to life in the winter of 2357.  Eventually, we found ways to implant our consciousness in our creations, though not many people took that plunge.  To each their own, the men and women of the Solar Assembly said, allowing transhumanism to prosper wherever it may take hold.  Some worlds became transhuman majority.  This was neither here nor there, given that on the inside they were still human.  In the early 2360's, the secrets of advancing the mind was discovered.  After much debating, the Solar Assembly concluded that it is far too dangerous for the stability of the Assembly for ones mind to be altered.  Morally, there was no argument.  If one wishes to do something that only effects them, the Assembly permits them.  The prospect of psychological transhumanism was seen as far too risky for it to be permitted, and was subsequently banned.

 

Alas, when a rule is made, it is destined to be broken.  Certain colonies eventually go rogue, with groups of people augmenting their minds in secret.  Their minds, now superior in computing power, and far different in the conclusions it reaches, generally lead to a superiority complex and genocidal tendencies.  The psycho-transcendants become aliens, unfamiliar in mind and body.  But to them, we are all but mysterious.  There are insurrections, rebellions, and insurgencies all throughout inhabited space. By the time TASEN gets word of these insurrections, millions have died.  By the time they can act, just under a billion.  By the time their jaunters reach the rogue worlds, almost two billion have perished at the hands of psycho-transcendants.

 

The psycho-transcendants (often referred to as "psytrans", "xenos", "mutants", or given nicknames based on their appearance) are labelled terrorists after psytran terrorist cells are linked to the destruction of the Tannhauser Ring in , and anyone to bring the remains or other proof of expiration to a TASEN Officer, Captain, or any other highly-ranked TASEN personnel gets a hefty reward.  Tragically, in the wake of this witch hunt, hundreds of thousands of mentally human transhumans (MHTs, or "mentras") are mistakenly killed, or worse.  However, this number is peanuts in comparison to the estimated 200 billion humans in the Assembly, at least 7 billion of which are mentras.  In fact, many mentras join the witch hunt, some posses being made up entirely of mentras.

 

From 2369 to 2389, Assembly Space is stricken with a bloody war.  More than two-thirds of the fighting is terrestrial.  Bloody and violent, the horrors of solar combat pale in comparison to that of terrestrial combat.  The very prospect of a ground war has been out of humanity's mind for a century.  The TASEN's Solar Marines were much underfunded and neglected at the time, calling for quick recruitment of mercenaries and guns-for-hire.  The heavily armed and ever vigilant population of Independent Rhodesia on earth's continent of Africa jumped at the opportunity, and the ranks of the new branch of the Solar Marines (SOMA), the Colonial Militia of the Solar Assembly (COMSA) mushroomed into the largest terrestrial-focused army in the history of humanity.  Comprised of mainly South and West African, Yugoslavian, American, Soviet, and Chinese ex-military personnel and mercenaries, the COMSA ended the war doing what humanity has done in every war since WWII, and sent a desperate blitzkrieg of conscripts complimented by precise strikes by special forces from numerous earth-based nations.  For planet-wide insurrections, we generally cut our losses and glass the whole planet from space if it doesn't have widespread advanced infrastructure.  

 

During all this fighting, Frank is killed when his ship is destroyed by a

 

[11:04:01 PM] bobo: in the end, after 150 trillion years transcending life and death, he lives in a space station orbiting a black hole, as every star has burned out by this time. he's died countless deaths, and lost countless loved ones. he uses the technology of the time along with his sparse knowledge of immortal beings (which he gained in the halls of the space station's immense archive) to engineer a being of his own to go back in time in a tipler cylinder and figure out what happened to him

 

[11:04:24 PM] bobo: his being is human in appearance and function, but immortal and with amazing regenerative powers like him. the being was built from bits of the man, and it shows in his similar thought patterns and personality

 

[11:04:34 PM] bobo: he sends the being back in time a month before the man's first memory, ending up roughly in the area of los alamos nuclear research station. he is hit by a car (carrying Oppenheimer) driving to the station, and subsequently hospitalized. upon full recovery, he is released and drafted into the army and sent to fight in germany. he manipulates the system to end up with the battalion the man served in, and is hastily sent to meet up with them on the front lines. when he meets the battalion, he searches for his creator, but is sent into combat before he could scan the whole battalion.

 

[11:04:54 PM] bobo: he ends up storming a hill in germany, and is struck by an artillery shell.

 

[11:05:00 PM] bobo: his creation is blasted to bits. he lost both legs, one arm, and his face

 

[11:05:02 PM] bobo: he wakes up in a hospital a few weeks later

 

[11:05:04 PM] bobo: he catches word that hitler has fallen

 

[11:05:09 PM] bobo: and he takes eventually takes off his bandages, finding that his face had returned

 

1.) Beginning scene with MC getting blown to bits. About two chapters in he takes off his bandages and feels his face. The rest of the book is him serving in the prolonged WWII, and ends in ~2000 when he decides he wants to be an astronaut. Might call it "World of Dogs"

 

2.) Begins with him working on a space station, and follows his quest for knowledge and spiritual enlightenment. Begins in 2010, chronicles his work in the First Solar War and the his longest period between deaths (130 years of being in the military or working on stations in one form or another), which ends with him throwing his mostly cybernetic form into Jupiter, hoping to end it finally. He wakes up on the Tannhauser Ring, which he just finished helping construct. That's about half way through the book. The rest is a quick detail of his life until the Absertion War, and the book ends just as transhumanism emerges. Probably called "The Amaranthine Man", or, "Worlds Like These"

 

3.) Final book, beginning in the midst of the Absertion War. Near the end of his days as a soldier, he uses the contacts he's acquired across his endless life to have him transferred to the planet Selous, where he looks for a collection of research papers called "The Existence of Immortal Humans as predicted by Cosmic Thought Theory", supposedly written by another immortal (which I've got a story planned for).

 

In looking for it, he gets killed, but not before he can read the whole thing. He wakes up in a hospital on Selous, and quickly recites what he remembers. In the hospital, he meets a mentally-human transhuman woman who he befriends. She says she's with the TASEN (Solar Assembly, basically the "earth" faction). After a while, the immortal insists he's alright now, but the woman says he can't be discharged yet. Inexplicably, the immortal has periodic bouts of sickness and hallucinations, leading him to be institutionalized in the hospital. The woman still visits him, and he begins to fall for her, even though he's taught himself not to get involved with people like that because he'll outlive them by an eternity.

 

While in the hospital, he recollects everything he's done, and plans his next moves, and the thousand moves after that. Eventually, he plots an escape from the hospital and succeeds in doing so. Upon leaving Selous, he sees on the news that aliens have made contact with the Assembly. Real aliens, not transhumans. The aliens are as far from humans as possible in societal structure, thought processes, biological structure, and everything else. They're as advanced as we are, but just in a completely different direction. Their technology is unrecognizable to us. The immortal, being tired of how fast the universe moves, how he never gets a break, and the sheer amount of effort he has to put into life, avoids the aliens as much as possible. He eventually freezes himself in a stasis tube and locks himself away in the Tannhauser Ring. He wakes up in the only twenty-some years later, on a hospital on Ganymede. The Tannhauser Ring was destroyed in a terrorist attack. Angry and out of his mind, the immortal proceeds to throw a Nic Cage-tier shitfit.

 

Skip to the year 150 Trillion-something, and the immortal is on an immense, super-advanced space station orbiting a black hole. Every star has burnt out, and humanity is all that's left. He hasn't died for tens of trillions of years, and it shows in his demeanor. This is when, while exploring parts of the station (which is lightyears in length), he meets the woman from the hospital. She's been looking for him, following him to the end of time, and on the precipice of universal entropy, she finally found him. She's another immortal, the one that wrote the paper he found on Selous. She tells him how much she's learned in her life, and that she can fabricate immortals, something that even humans in the year 150 trillion can't do. She knows how to violate the laws of thermodynamics and make a new immortal. Several million years pass as they scour the station for the required elements to make one.

 

Finally, once all is collected, death begins to die. Entropy entropies, and the black holes snuff themselves out. In the final days of the universe, they use the super-advanced technology of the time to send the immortal they built back. The immortal is built from the first immortal, and consequently, looks more like the first immortal every time it heals.

 

They send the being back in time a month before the man's first memory, ending up roughly in the area of Los Alamos nuclear research station. He is hit by a car (carrying Oppenheimer) driving to the station, and subsequently hospitalized. upon full recovery, he is released and drafted into the army and sent to fight in Germany. he manipulates the system to end up with the battalion the man served in, and is hastily sent to meet up with them on the front lines. When he meets the battalion, he searches for his creator, but is sent into combat before he could scan the whole battalion.
