> Describe how your Faster Than Light technology works.Panspermia: A world consiousness uses its psionic abilities to form a seedling in a distant system. The seedling grows using manifested matter until it forms a voidfish. Voidfish have the cleverness of a higher beast and a pod mentality. They follow the occasional orders of their maker.
> Describe your favored tool for handling situations.Lulling sleep and waking nightmare:

> What do you do if that tool fails?Hostile Ecologies are like crowds. They are difficult to persuade and prone to bipolarity. Lessens learned will need to be taught the hard way.
> Describe what your nation wants from Space Exploration, and how they're preparing to get it.The hostile ecology desires to silence the noise of civilization. To return all worlds to the new primordial nature. To be able to safely grow at a comfortable pace.
> Describe one thing your nation is good at, and why.Hostile ecology is very good at biotechnology. As that is its entire being.
