Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What was the name chosen for the newly established colony by those that were "dropped" by the Catteni?

Answer: Botany

Botany was the choice of Kris Bjornsen who thought it was a good choice, as they were prisoners just like those in the Botany Bay penal colony.

2. How many Catteni were in the landing party that the scoutship delivered to the colony to capture Zainal?

Answer: 4

One of the four was a women. They had planned to find Zainal, drug him and bring him back to serve his duty to the Eosi.

3. What happened to the Catteni landing party?

Answer: They were eaten by nightcrawlers

The Catteni had no idea about the dangers on Botany and the landing party were left in a field. The nightcrawlers ate everything of them except their boots and some metal from their clothes. The only way to be safe from nightcrawlers is to be on rock as they live in the ground.

4. What were the markings on the side of the transport ship that the colonists captured?

Answer: KDL-45

The KDL-45 was the third ship that the colonists captured. This one was much newer and in better condition than the second ship (also a transport) that they captured. The first ship they captured was the scoutship that was named Baby.

5. On the captured transport ship there were two short range airships and an all terrain amphibious vehicle. What was the name given to the amphibious vehicle?

Answer: The Tub

The Tub was used to transport Kris, Zainal, Mitford and others to the other continent to see if it was habitable for the colony.

6. Kris was told that she had to have a baby or two for the colony. Who was the father of her child?

Answer: Pete Easley

Kris and Zainal could not have a child together, being of different races. Kris did not like Dick Aarens so there was never any chance of him being the father. Zainal suggested that Chuck would be a good choice as father but she did not pursue this. Chuck however was named as the godfather.

7. What is the equivalant of getting engaged on Botany?

Answer: Making bricks together

The houses that the colonists built on the southern continent were made from bricks and each couple built their house together.

8. What was the name of the strong alchoholic drink that Balanquah drank on Barevi, against Kris's advice?

Answer: Pilth

Goru pear are fruits found on Barevi. Plursaw is the essential ingredient for Deski diets, and hopefully you didnt choose Quilith as I made it up!

9. What name did Zainal use on the expedition to Barevi?

Answer: Drassi Kubitai

Emassi is the equivalant in rank to royalty in the Catteni. There is no way that an Emassi would captain a transport ship it is beneath him. Perizac is Zainal's father and Lenvec is his brother.

10. What had the Eosi done to the terrans that were waiting on Barevi to be shipped off to mining colonies as slave labour?

Answer: Mind wiped

The mind wiped terrans could sit and stand and eat when prompted but could not speak or function normally. Zainal and his expedition stole another transport and saved all those waiting to be shipped out to the mining colonies and took them back to Botany.
