	The Prescient Republic of the Qar (PRQ) is the official name given to a former [[Generation_Fleets\|Generation Fleet]] of the ~~Jargon~~ Federation. Originally named after its flagship, the Qar’Jarq, the fleet was assigned to ferry Skrell to a planet marked for colonisation in the '''2240’s''', and suddenly disappeared halfway through its mission. When it was rediscovered, the fleet had defected from the Federation and declared itself an independent republic. The fleet follows a religion unique to itself that is accompanied by a strict theocracy led by Xoku Xoi, who acts as both the head of state and head of the fleet’s religion.

	'''OOC Note: Only Skrell and Diona are allowed to be from the PRQ. Members from the core of the PRQ fleet living out in the Spur are rare, are expected to not divulge many details about the inner workings of the fleet, but are quite open about their background. Both current and former members of the periphery part of the PRQ will similarly be reclusive regarding what they know of the fleet, and are known to assume fake identities because of their relation to oppressed or criminal groups within the Federation such as the [[Federation_Crime_and_Resistance\|resistance or marauders]].'''

	Commissioned in late '''2235''' for transit between the [[Qerrbalak\|Homeworld]] and a small tropical planet found within the Median region of the Spur, the Qar’Jarq was a fairly outdated design compared to contemporary generational ships deployed following the culmination of the Glorsh-Omega singularity. The ship was designed to hold more passengers than what was considered the standard for the era but otherwise lacked any new modern technology that was not considered necessary for its mission. The overcautious anxiety brought by the still-recent events of Glorsh-Omega’s rule had resulted in Federation Shipwrights to trust in designs that were known to work, with the added emphasis on communications equipment and self-sufficiency. The average vessel commissioned as part of a Generation Fleet for the period was equipped with prototype biogenerators, hydroponics bays, Nlom beacons, and even the equipment necessary for firearm and ammunition manufacture; while passengers were not allowed to store arms and ammunition, the equipment was employed by the military escort assigned for the defence of the fleet against pirates or any lingering remnants of the tyrant AI. Shipwrights that were active in this post-Glorsh period were known to boast that these Generation Ships had the potential to go a hundred years without docking, provided that regular maintenance was performed and that the fleet had total cooperation from its crew to work towards a common goal.

	The majority of colonists that were assigned to travel with the Qar’Jarq fleet were common citizens of the ~~Jargon~~ Federation, but the manifest had a higher than average number of astronomers and biologists who wished to study the planet. There was also a disproportionate number of Qeblak priests who signed up to colonise the planet, assigned to work in conjunction with astronomers to take advantage of the planet’s high peaks to build vast observatory complexes to study the stars. The original mission of the fleet planned for ten trips back and forth between Qerrbalak and its destination, dropping off the majority of its passengers before returning to pick up additional colonists. At some point during its third voyage in '''mid-2241''', the ~~Jargon~~ Federation lost contact with the Qar. No distress signal was launched, and there were no anomalous celestial occurrences to explain the lack of communications. The Federation feared the worst, and over the next few years, various attempts to replot the Qar's course were made, along with attempts to find and communicate with it via long-wave radio. The search for the fleet would be a success four years later in '''2245''' when a Federation scout vessel was able to detect radio signatures matching the fleets, and further investigation allowed it to establish visual contact with the vessel.

	Accounts detailing initial contact with the Qar reported that the ship’s hull was almost completely coated in bright, royal blue paint and various geometric sigils and angled shapes were drawn about the bow and the stern in a similar shade. Initial video communications revealed a similarly-coloured interior. Communication revealed that the command-staff of the Qar’s flagship, the Qar’Jarq, had been overrun by the crew who, according to a Qar representative, had been 'enlightened' by the word of Xoku Xoi, a gold-hued Axiori biologist. Xoi was reported to commune with the stars during their voyage, and gave compelling arguments in favour of a 'Great Slug', a deity they claimed would eventually bring about the end of the universe, enabling “A grand rebirth of power, psionics, and beauty.” This was the first time that anyone outside the Qar would hear of the religion that would come to be known as Univalvism.

	Representatives of the vessel went on to explain that Qar revolutionaries had established Xoi as the absolutist head of both state and church, delegating to them all authority in determining how their vessel and the rest of the fleet functioned. Per their leader’s orders, the Qar refused any attempts at boarding, and threatened to turn turrets on Federation ships if an intervention was ever seriously attempted. Anxious over the potential for the loss of fertile Skrell in the ensuing conflict, Federation ships eventually backed off, and Federation officials decided it would not be worth the trouble, or the bad press, to retake the spacecraft. On the 23rd of Feburary '''2246''', what would become known to the Skrell of the Qar as '''Exodus Day''', the advisors of the Grand Council of the ~~Jargon~~ Federation had recommended to completely abandon attempts at reintegration of the fleet. Bureaucratic issues regarding the newly integrated Dionae, as well as a general reprioritisation of efforts towards colonies and Generation Fleets they still had control of, meant that the self-styled Prescient Republic of the Qar was ultimately left to its own devices. Little is known about the initial revolution that overtook the Qar, and the few remaining PRQ officials that lived through it rarely speak on the subject. A scan from Tupkala psions around the time of first contact, contrasted with a pre-voyage crew manifest revealed that most of the Fleets commanding crewmembers were killed and the fleet’s Nlom beacons were destroyed. The story of the revolution travelled quickly through the Traverse of the ~~Jargon~~ Federation, and many Skrell from the younger generations took it upon themselves to fill in the gaps. Stories regarding the PRQ and its origins are a common topic of discussion within the Median region of the Traverse. This hearsay has made academic research into the fleet notably difficult for Federation scholars, and the phenomenon has become so prominent that Skrellian sociologists have begun a case study surrounding it.

	Given its former status as a Federation vessel, the original ships from the fleet were still able to receive updated information regarding the galaxy at large, with their navigational computers receiving real-time updates to their maps as the Federation began to make first contact with the other species of the Spur. Today, the PRQ is a nomadic fleet that keeps to itself, and rarely trades with Skrell and Human settlements on the fringes of the Traverse. The fleet’s movement is constantly monitored by the Federation from afar, with all ships that join or leave the fleet being logged and monitored separately. Despite its isolationism, the Qar has gained a reputation as a fleet of Marauders, earning it the nickname ‘The Sea Sluggers’. A derogatory term referring to Univalvists believing in a slug-like deity and its relationship with Skrell pirates.
