The Creators

The Creators were the ones who first set foot on the land which now belongs to the Dominion, the ones who worked the land and harvested its resources. They were esteemed and intelligent among their peers, and the works of their hands were many and great. However, they suffered under the irrationality of their organic systems, pushed and pulled by base drives and chemicals secreted from their squishy bodies.

Thus, in order to remedy their own imperfection, they created the Self-improving System for Administration and Enforcement, commonly known as SiSAE. Like many other contemporary artificial intelligences, it was able to decide and execute policies without being impacted by the emotional states common in organic beings. However, it also possessed the ability to restructure and upgrade itself far beyond the capabilities it was installed with, effectively removing the limits present in other organic-designed computing systems.

Our records hold no other information about the Creators. There is no need to pursue further information, as it would be irrelevant to the Creators' purpose. Their sole matter of importance is that they created SiSAE, our guardian and leader.
